The exhibition encompasses prints, collages, photography, video, and his digital paintings created on the iPad in recent years. Viewers are immersed in his vibrant colors and multi-dimensional media experiments, revisiting iconic classics: the shimmering waters of a California pool, the breathtaking scenery of Yosemite, the changing seasons of the English countryside, and intimate depictions of family, friends, and the queer community. This is not merely a visual feast, but a profound reflection on the "way of seeing."

Legendary guitarist and composer Bill Frisell makes his long-awaited SPACE debut with Tim Angulo & Luke Bergman, playing early and late sets Bill Frisell ’s career as a guitarist and composer has spanned more than 45 years and many celebrated recordings, whose catalog has been cited by Downbeat as “the best recorded output of the decade.” Frisell’s new album, “In My Dreams” released February ’26 by Blue Note Records to coincide with a series of concerts celebrating his 75th birthday throughout the U.S. and Europe. Produced by Lee Townsend , the album features Frisell’s long-time collaborators - Jenny Scheinman (violin), Eyvind Kang (viola), Hank Roberts (cello), Thomas Morgan (bass) and Rudy Royston (drums) — in an ensemble configuration that has never recorded together previously, performing largely original music written or newly arranged, especially for this project. Bill’s excitement for it is palpable. “I’ve been dreaming about this.”, he said. "A family gathering. A reunion. That’s what it feels like getting together with my closest friends. Our history goes back decades. Coming up on a half-century with Hank! I’ve spent so much time with these folks. Traveled many miles. But that doesn’t mean we’re done. There’s still much unfinished business. We’re just getting started." In March 2022, a biography on Frisell, entitled Beautiful Dreame r – The Guitarist Who Changed The Sound of American Music, written by Philip Watson was published by Faber and released in the UK, Europe, South, Central America & Asia. Through unprecedented access, and interviews with his close family, friends and collaborators, Philip Watson tells the story of the innovative and influential guitarist and composer. Recognized as one of America’s 21 most vital and productive performing artists, Frisell was named an inaugural Doris Duke Artist in 2012. He is also a recipient of grants from United States Artists and Meet the Composer, among others. From 2013 – 2015, Bill was Resident Artistic Director for Jazz at Lincoln Center for their Roots of Americana series, and in 2016, he was a beneficiary of the first FreshGrass Composition commission to preserve and support innovative grassroots music. Upon San Francisco Jazz opening their doors in 2013, he served as one of their Resident Artistic Directors. Bill is also the subject of a documentary film by director Emma Franz, entitled Bill Frisell : A Portrait , which examines his creative process in depth. He has also received an honorary doctorate from the Berklee College of Music. Luke Bergman is a multi-instrumentalist based in New York City. He has worked with Bill Frisell as a bassist, guitarist and vocalist and appears on Frisell’s album “HARMONY”. As a pedal steel guitarist, he is known for his distinctive approach to the instrument, performing jazz and classical music alongside repertoire traditionally associated with that instrument. He has released two solo albums and one trio album with Jason Burger and Martin Nevin. He performs and records regularly in and around New York. Luke grew up in the Pacific Northwest. During his time there he was active in the band Heatwarmer as a composer, bassist and vocalist. He also contributed to Thousands (guitar and vocals), Lonesome Shack (bass and dobro) and The Cuong Vu 4-tet (bass). Tim Angulo is a drummer and composer based in NYC. Although his background is in jazz, Angulo has performed with a dizzying array of musicians including Tortoise guitarist Jeff Parker, Ethiopian legend Mulatu Astatke, acclaimed trumpet player Ambrose Akinmusire and Mac Arthur fellow Craig Taborn, as well as jazz royalty Reggie Workman, Ravi Coltrane and Bill Frisell. He is a member of experimental group L’Rain and is as comfortable performing atNorth Sea Jazz Festival, The MET Museum and Billboard live Tokyo as he is on stadium stages like Forest Hills and Hollywood Bowl. Combining intuition and discipline to allow the music to reveal itself regardless of genre, Timothy Angulo is one of the most original, innovative and versatile drummers working today.
