Visit Reverend Joyce McDonald’s ‘Renewal’ Friday thru Sunday, 12-6pm and by appt. McDonald’s exhibition is on view at Gordon Robichaux alongside Deondre Davis’s ‘Ark.’ Gordon Robichaux is pleased to present Renewal, Reverend Joyce McDonald’s third solo exhibition at the gallery and her first since her retrospective exhibition at the Bronx Museum earlier this year. ‘Renewal’ unites ten of McDonald’s figurative sculptures created over the past four decades, several of which have never been previously exhibited. Each of the artist’s intimate artworks, which she refers to as “testimonial sculptures,” memorializes a person, experience, memory, or vision that McDonald translates into clay and adorns with humble materials such as paper towels, costume pearls, scraps of fabric, plastic plant sprigs, small rocks, and fragments of jewelry. The artist’s process is therapeutic, and the works resonate with emotional immediacy, spiritual energy, and the conviction of McDonald’s faith, which inspires their creation. As she has shared: “When I make art, I touch the clay and my hands move. I don’t know what I’m going to make—the Spirit guides me.” @joyketa #ReverendJoyMcDonald @visual_aids

Opening today: Gordon Robichaux at Frieze NY: Deondre Davis Focus Booth F7 May 13-17, 2026 Gordon Robichaux is pleased to present a solo booth of Deondre Davis’s work at Frieze New York, May 13-17. The presentation is organized in coordination with the artist’s second solo exhibition at our gallery, ‘Ark,’ on view thru June 21. The gallery and fair presentations feature a new series of paintings and assemblage sculptures created during the artist’s residency at the Chinati Foundation, Marfa, TX, earlier this year. Davis’s practice is rooted in what he describes as “system-driven logic,” and the foundation of his paintings and drawings is generally a graphite grid, which he maps across the surface of paper or unprimed canvas. The grid functions as a structure onto and against which the artist builds a layered composition of geometric shapes, filled with areas of translucent and opaque color—Ash Yellow, Olive Green, Copper, Warm Grey, Ash Blue, Quinacridone Rose, Warm Yellow—applied with gouache and oil paint. The abstract works evince a generative tension between rational forms and processes and the artist’s intuition, imagination, and embrace of imperfections: lines of varied weights waver and stray from strict perpendiculars, while color exceeds enclosure, and smudges or uneven applications of graphite and paint create interference. For Davis, repetition and seriality yield inconsistency and difference. He locates freedom and meaning within a narrow set of variables, a process which the artist calls “contemplative repetition.” Deondre Davis (b.1991, Chicago) is a self-taught artist who lives and works in Los Angeles. Solo exhibitions include Gordon Robichaux in New York (2024) and CASTLE in Los Angeles (2025). Davis was awarded residencies at Chinati Foundation in Marfa, TX (2026) and at Rondo in Mexico City, MX (2025).
