There is an unstated hierarchy of forms at work in this enigmatic not-quite-solo, not-quite-collective exhibition. “Hereafter” was conceived by Simon Moretti and features works by well over a dozen “guest” others. The artist’s wall-mounted neon, Double Vortex (after Emanuel Swedenborg), 2025, is the show’s cipher. This work’s very shape—like a ram’s horns atop an Ionic column—points to the heavens.

There will be no women when this spell breaks. And no need for magic, either.

What would it take for an artist to take control of the means of aesthetic production?

Byrne has a type. Or rather, he’ll paint you into one.
