Artist Reception: Thursday, November 13, 6 PM
Exhibition: November 14, 2025 – January 10, 2026
We are pleased to present “Sensible Shoes", the fourth solo exhibition of Roe Ethridge (b. 1969, Miami, FL) at the gallery.
In "Sensible Shoes", American artist Roe Ethridge turns his lens toward the slippery overlap between the ordinary and the staged, the intimate and the commercial. Known for dissolving the boundaries between fine art and editorial photography, Ethridge presents his fourth solo exhibition at Mai 36 Galerie, a new body of work that unfolds as a quietly humorous yet incisive reflection on contemporary image culture.
Ethridge’s work has been exhibited internationally, among others at the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Modern Art (New York), the Tate Modern (London) as well as Le Consortium (Dijon) and has been featured in the Whitney Biennial (2008) and New Photography 2010 at MoMA. His 2022 monograph American Polychronic (MACK) consolidated his position as one of the most influential contemporary photographers bridging the worlds of art and commerce.
