For Frieze Masters 2026, ammann//gallery presents a focused selection of museum-quality works by Alessandro Mendini, Massimo Iosa Ghini, Alessandro Guerriero, Matteo Thun and Mark Brazier-Jones in response to the curatorial premise of Reflections, curated by Abby Bangser. Inspired by the collecting philosophies embodied in Casa Luis Barragán and Charles and Maggie Jencks’ Cosmic House, the section invites exhibitors to consider how domestic interiors become platforms for ideas, experimentation and personal vision. ammann//gallery’s presentation draws on the intellectual legacy of the Jenckses, whose home championed the principles of Postmodern architecture articulated in Charles Jencks’ The Language of Post-Modern Architecture (1977). Bringing together furniture, painting and design objects, the exhibition explores how the leading figures of Italian Postmodernism transformed domestic objects into carriers of symbolism, historical reference and architectural thought.
