​Purvis Young is a large-scale exhibition, encompassing the foundation's entire first floor, featuring over 100 paintings from this artist who spent the entirety of his life (1943—2010) working in Miami. Numerous universal themes within his paintings will be highlighted and presented in depth. A comprehensive catalog with an interview by Hans Ulrich Obrist and writings by Rashid Johnson, Gean Moreno, Franklin Sirmans, César Trasobares, and Barbara N. Young, will accompany the exhibition.

New Acquisitions presents paintings and sculptures acquired within the last two years. Each of the 20 artists will be represented by multiple works in their own room. The exhibition will include new large-scale paintings created by Jonathan Lyndon Chase during his 2018 off-site residency. Other artists includes Janiva Ellis, Tomm El-Saieh, Martha Jungwirth, Rudolf Polanszky and Tschabalala Self.
