May 25, 2026 – Hollis Taggart Downtown is pleased to present A View All Their Own, a group exhibition featuring twenty contemporary women artists across generations, revealing their unique process and materiality. Process is explored as method and language – an intimate site where material, gesture, and meaning converge. Working across a variety of mediums – painting, sculpture, photography, works on paper, installation, and mixed media – each artist approaches her practice through a distinct relationship to materials: shaping, layering, eroding, assembling, or transforming them into forms that carry both personal and cultural resonance. 

The exhibition features works by Diana Al-Hadid, Grimanesa Amorós, Lynda Benglis, Alina Bliumis, Kate Clark, Dee Clements, Francine Fleischer, Margaret Garrett, Ana Maria Hernando, Patty Horing, Dana James, Karen Margolis, Verdiana Patacchini, Howardena Pindell, Lina Puerta, Kate Rusek, Anastasia Samoylova, Bastienne Schmidt, Rebecca Stern, Amy Wickersham. A View All Their Own will be on view from June 25 – August 15, 2026, with an opening reception on Thursday, June 25, from 6-8pm at 109 Norfolk Street.

Curated by art advisor Angelica Semmelbauer, the exhibition reveals a multiplicity of voices and approaches that emerge through the process of making. In each artist’s unique vision, material becomes a conduit for expression – at times tactile and immediate, at others symbolic or referential – exposing how each artist constructs her own visual vocabulary. Traces of the hand, the accumulation of time, and the negotiation between control and chance remain visible, inviting viewers into the process as much as the final form. 

Spanning generations, the works reflect evolving dialogues around memory, identity and perception, while also asserting the autonomy of each artist’s vision. A View All Their Own offers a space where differences of vision and practice are embraced and celebrated – an acknowledgment that there is no singular way of seeing, only a constellation of perspectives shaped through material and process. 

When Ernst Beyeler, one of the great art collectors and dealers of the 20th century, was asked “what gives an artwork its power?”, he responded: “For me, the two crucial criteria are originality and freshness. However, a picture stands the test of time if it evolves as you do. Time is the best judge. Freshness does not age. It is oriented toward the future.” The works brought together in A View All Their Own reflect these ideas. Each artist brings a distinct point of view, shaped by her own experiences, methods, and ways of seeing, collectively revealing how originality emerges through sustained experimentation, material exploration, and an evolving artistic vision.
