We are pleased to announce Ad Libitum, a project by Mariane Ibrahim. Featuring the work of artists and designers exploring the themes of improvisation, and materiality, and on view from April 22 – May 3, 2025, the exhibition connects the works of Nigerian painter Peter Uka, Mexico City-based photographer Darryl Richardson and London-based design Gallery FUMI. Ad Libitum, or "at one's pleasure", will create a space of material experimentation.
"Ad Libitum," meaning both “at one’s pleasure” and a musical call to improvisation, serves as a metaphor for the convergence of artists, designers, and friends of the gallery. The presentation unveils a celebration of friendship, collective spirit, craftmanship and cultural multiplicity.
Gallery FUMI marks its Chicago debut by presenting a curated selection of works from its designers and artists.
