His first New York show since 2016, The Barn is conceived by Tuymans as the third in a trilogy of recent exhibitions at David Zwirner—following Good Luck in Hong Kong in 2020, and Eternity in Paris in 2022—and debuts a group of new large-scale paintings by the artist that together convey a pervasive atmosphere of dissolution.
MORE ON TUYMANS
“A lot of Tuymans’s works are about the human paradox of being ‘good’ and ‘evil’ at the same time.”
Curator Caroline Bourgeois, The New York Times
Revisiting PROGRAM: Luc Tuymans
Ahead of Eternity, Tuymans’s 2022 exhibition at our Paris gallery, Helen Molesworth spoke with the artist in his Antwerp studio and together they visited the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp for a private viewing of Jean Fouquet’s c. 1450 painting Virgin and Child Surrounded by Angels, which has inspired Tuymans throughout his career.
London | Tate Modern
June 13, 2023–January 28, 2024
Tuymans’s painting The Shore, pictured above with the artist, will be featured in Tate Modern’s forthcoming group exhibition Capturing the Moment. The work debuted at our London gallery in 2015 and is now in the permanent collection of the Tate.

Surveying nearly five decades of the artist’s work, these three volumes are a testament to Tuymans’s persistent assertion of the importance of painting in today’s digital world.
