MENASA+: Thresholds of Representation

Kavi Gupta | Washington Blvd. Fl. 1E

14 Feb - 20 Jun 2026

The gallery's presentation seeks to elevate the voices of underrepresented MENASA+ South Asian and Asian artists, whose perspectives are more critical than ever in light of today’s political and social climate. This presentation reflects our commitment to amplifying marginalized voices and offering a vital perspective seldom seen in the mainstream.

Each artist offers insight into themes of identity, cultural expression, and displacement. Their works present rich narratives that reflect the complexity of the Asian and Asian American experience, providing a counterpoint to the often one-dimensional depictions found in mainstream culture.

Continuing Resistance: A Century of Black Liberation (1925-2025)

Kavi Gupta | Washington Blvd. Fl. 1W

14 Feb - 20 Jun 2026

Continuing Resistance: A Century of Black Liberation (1925–2025) positions artistic production within the Black radical tradition as an enduring site of political imagination and insurgent knowledge across a century of practice. Rather than framing resistance as episodic or reactive, the exhibition advances an understanding of resistance as a sustained praxis articulated through visual form, collective authorship, and the ongoing struggle for self-definition against regimes of erasure and containment.

Haya Zaidi: Up Against

Kavi Gupta | Washington Blvd. Fl. 2

30 Apr - 11 Jul 2026

Kavi Gupta is pleased to present Haya Zaidi's Up Against, the artist's first solo exhibition in the United States, marking a significant milestone in her practice. Karachi-based multidisciplinary artist Haya Zaidi works at the convergence of Indo-Persian miniature painting, mixed media, and contemporary feminist discourse. Grounding her practice in the visual and literary lineages of South Asia, Zaidi examines how the brown female body becomes a contested site of inheritance, mythology, and resistance. Through intricate symbolism and layered narrative, she reconfigures archetypal imagery to articulate a selfhood shaped by both cultural memory and the psychic interiority of womanhood.
