THIRD BORN
By appointment

Next Week find Loucia Carlier at NADA NYC booth A10
THIRD BORN presents a solo booth by Loucia Carlier (@louciacarlier) in NADA’s Projects Section. An expansion of the artist’s series “Cheap Dreams,” developed at La Becque, Switzerland, Carlier uses the miniature as both reverie and critique, revealing how domestic objects transmit power, habit, and norms. Combining carpentry, upholstery, collage, and metalwork, Carlier builds disorienting interiors where the ordinary becomes suspect — she stages the self as both agent and captive, testing how identity is shaped within domestic space.

Behind the scenes of Anna de Castro Barbosa’s research for her residency at @french__place, concluding in the solo presentation Il Quiproquo, on view through June 28, 2026.
The exhibition emerges from Barbosa’s investigation of perception, fragmentation, and the unstable form. Evoking the folding screen and the fan, it stages concealment and revelation—images, bodies, and narratives that appear partially, slipping between recognition and ambiguity.
During the residency Barbosa advanced her work in bronze, working closely with a foundry in Verona to produce a series of fan works titled Il Quiproquo—a misunderstanding in which one thing is mistaken for another. The presentation further interrogates body, desire, and otherness, concentrating on the moment before contact where attraction and unease converge. Made from materials that both invite and resist touch and incorporating repurposed medical instruments, the threshold‑like works on view balance seduction and repulsion, framing intimacy and distance as fragile, unresolved encounters.
We are deeply grateful to Marta (@marta_orsola_sironi) and Mauro (@mauro__mattei), the entire French Place team, and Caterina Avataneo (@cateavataneo) for supporting and facilitating this residency and presentation.

COLLECTORS PANEL & APERITIVO
Saturday, April 25
4 - 7 PM
In a moment of material excess and technological turnover, When Things Begin to Act, asks us to rethink objects as agents—active, affective, and generative. Ledesma’s repurposed circuits and sound‑electronic systems make debris and circuitry resonate, foregrounding contingency, failure, and embodied listening. Kumža’s carefully staged everyday things—fractured glass, gloves, metal frameworks—strip function to produce uncanny, emotionally charged tableaux. Together the works activate objects as sites of tension, relation, and perceptual transformation, inviting a renewed attention to the material conditions of daily life.

“I share with THIRD BORN a love for Chicago—its architecture, its artists, its political and social histories, music, design—there’s an unmistakable materiality and way of communicating in form that I adore. I’m hyped to be there.” —Sidony O’Neal

Program for fireback with sacrificial anode, 2023
Pallet, aluminium, steel, printed inconel, vapor-smoothed
86.4 x 76.2 x 22.9 cm
34 x 30 x 9 in
Program for fireback with sacrificial anode (2023) functions as a provisional system where materials, symbols, and structural fragments interact through mathematical, architectural, and poetic logics. Drawing on computation, translation, and symbolic reasoning, O’Neal creates environments where objects act as interfaces for circulating meaning. Industrial and ornamental vocabularies collide in an unstable configuration: a pallet-like platform supports repeated linear elements and decorative aluminum forms like baroque or algorithmic fragments, while resin-like pieces punctuate the grid as irregular markers. The piece reads as platform, diagram, and stage, suggesting infrastructure and code and inviting viewers to see sculpture as an interface where patterns emerge, fracture, and recombine.

CONDO returns to Mexico City ✨
April 23–26, 2026
Copperfield, London and THIRD BORN, Mexico City will present for Condo: When Things Begin to Act, an exhibition of work by Vytautas Kumža and Mariana Ledesma.
The exhibition explores the active life of matter—where objects are not passive, but perform, vibrate, generate tension, and shape our experience of space. Through Ledesma’s sound-electronic systems and Kumža’s photographic and sculptural tableaux, the familiar becomes unstable and charged.
On view through May 22, 2026.
Collectors Panel Discussion
Saturday, April 25, 2026
4:00 PM
A conversation on collecting strategies, cross-border exchange, and collaborative models like CONDO.

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
