Cecily Brown’s Picture Making turns uncertainty into a painterly method: figures emerge, dissolve and return across twenty-five years of paintings, drawings and monotypes.

MUAC, Museo Tamayo, Museo Jumex and kurimanzutto lead an unusually strong September in Mexico City, from Julian Rosefeldt and John Giorno to Richard Prince and a transatlantic reconsideration of Tamayo, Nieto and Toledo.
