Carrington and Vicuña paired in two-city show for New York and San Francisco

Leonora Carrington and Cecilia Vicuña will share the spotlight in a two-city exhibition.

The project pairs work by the two artists in one linked show. It opens in New York in November and then moves to San Francisco in the new year.

Lehmann Maupin in New York will open the exhibition on November 19. The gallery bills it as a two-part exhibition, a format where work is shown in two connected sections rather than a single hang. Lehmann Maupin

Then it travels. Gallery Wendi Norris in San Francisco will host the exhibition in January 2027. That gives audiences on each coast a local chance to see the pairing.

The show is organised jointly by the two galleries. Lehmann Maupin and Wendi Norris are collaborating on the Carrington-Vicuña pairing, ARTnews reported on 12 October 2026.

Joint shows of this kind are common in the gallery world. One gallery leads in its home city, the other picks up the run in its own space. The artists, the loans and the schedule are shared.

The timing follows a roster change. Cecilia Vicuña has joined Lehmann Maupin, according to the gallery's news page. The November opening places her alongside Carrington under her new gallery. Lehmann Maupin

No further details on the checklist have been published on the exhibition page. What is confirmed so far is the shape of the tour: New York first, San Francisco second.

What makes this stand out is the double run. New York gets the first look in late autumn. San Francisco follows just weeks later.

For fans, this means two dates for the diary. Catch it at Lehmann Maupin from 19 November. Or catch it at Gallery Wendi Norris from January 2027.
