Deborah Butterfield: New Work

November 13, 2026 – January 9, 2027

Opening Reception: Friday, November 13, 2026 | 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM

 

Haines proudly presents our second exhibition with Deborah Butterfield, one of the most distinctive and celebrated sculptors of our time. For nearly five decades, Butterfield has dedicated her practice to craftsmanship, material experimentation, and nuanced depictions of horses, exploring the expressive and formal possibilities of her chosen subject matter and materials.

 
Preview the Exhibition
 

Deborah Butterfield: New Work brings together a remarkable new body of her signature bronze sculptures, including the commanding, life-sized Kákini (2026), one of several new sculptures created from manzanita branches that the artist sourced from gallery principal Cheryl Haines’ property in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California. Other works in the exhibition were created from driftwood gathered in Montana, woody sage from Wyoming, and 'O'hia branches from Hawaii, with which Butterfield achieves an extraordinary range of posture, expression, and attitude. Graceful and evocative, Butterfield's equine sculptures offer a moving meditation on the connections between humans, animals, and the environments we inhabit.


Join us for the opening reception on Friday, November 13, 5:30 – 7:30 PM.
