More Patrick Martinez’s “Same Boat,” a quote by civil rights leader Whitney M. Young Jr. rendered in neon. (Alex Welsh/The New York Times) INGLEWOOD, CALIF.- Art in the wild — that is, in public spaces outside of museums and galleries — will succeed or fail depending on its capacity to speak meaningfully and surprisingly to its environment. A sublime Alexander Calder sculpture can look inert if plunked in a corporate plaza. A flippant Banksy mural, on a dreary back street, can be just the thing. When several thousand Bruno ... More Coming soon to Jersey City: A gleaming home for the symphony The British Museum announces new touring exhibition "Gladiators of Britain" Under a frozen army base, he found incredible fossils A rendering of the Symphony Center. (DLR Group via The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- The New Jersey Symphony has long lacked a permanent home, performing in a variety of spaces across the state. But come 2026, that will change: The orchestra is getting a gleaming 550-seat theater in downtown Jersey City, the ensemble and the city announced Wednesday. The new theater, to be called Symphony Center, is expected to become a hub ...

More Paul Bierman. (Joshua Brown/University of Vermont via The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- Somewhere deep inside a glacier in Greenland are the remains of Camp Century, a short-lived experiment in making the Cold War literal. In 1959, the U.S. Army began building a network of tunnels, carved inside the ice, that it hoped might become a launch site for nuclear missiles. By 1967, the military had abandoned the idea and the base. But the samples of ice and frozen ...

More RIBA announces shortlist for the Stephen Lawrence Prize 2024 7 days in the cultural life of an artistic director Trailblazing artist Marta Minujín is about to have her first major museum exhibition in Europe Bluebird by SKArchitects (Project Architect: Danielle Simpson). Billy Haynes, Miru3D. LONDON.- Founded by Baroness Doreen Lawrence OBE and the Marco Goldschmeid Foundation, the annual prize was established in 1998 in memory of Stephen Lawrence, a teenager and aspiring architect who was the victim of a fatal racist attack in 1993. Intended to encourage new talent and inspire others in the early stages of their architectural career, the award exclusively recognises projects led by an early career project architect. This is typically someone who has ...

More Marta Minujín at her studio in Buenos Aires, photos by Emilia Van Raap. COPENHAGEN.- Marta Minujín (b.1943) is an iconic figure and one of the most prominent Latin American pop and conceptual artists ever. She created some of art history’s first spectacular immersive installations, and over the last sixty years she has developed happenings, performances, installations and video works that have influenced generations of contemporary artists in Latin America, the US and Europe. Despite her already long and illustrious career Minujín is still a force to be reckoned with, and when ... More The life of an (extra)ordinary Roman soldier More News Quartz Studio will present the first solo show in Turin by Davide Mineo TURIN.- On Monday, September 9, 2024, at 7:00 pm, Quartz Studio will present Masse non nulle, the first solo show in Turin by Davide Mineo (Palermo, 1992), curated by Carlo Corona. The site-specific installation Masse non nulle, which Davide Mineo conceived for Quartz Studio, visually presents itself as a sculptural-painting mechanism that occupies the exhibition space and alters its perception and thereby conditions the experience of it. The physical and optical substance of the room-sized brass form is capable of attracting and repelling the viewer with the open intention of creating a sense of alienation. In terms of color, the metal's luminosity creates a powerful contrast with the acrylic painting on the surface within fields of irregular geometric shapes (reminiscent of certain 1950s geometric abstractions). In spatial terms, the room- ... More Royal College of Art features at London Design Festival with multidisciplinary events and displays LONDON.- The Royal College of Art will present a series of multidisciplinary events and displays for the 22nd edition of the London Design Festival, positioning London as the design capital of the world and running from 14 - 22 September 2024.

Secuelas: cuerpo, tierra, y mar weaves together narratives of immigration, identity, and heritage, addressing both historical and present-day perspectives of colonization.

More Leading ceramicist Yukiya Izumita returns to New York in new exhibition at Ippodo Gallery NEW YORK, NY.- Ippodo Gallery presents Expanding Earth: New Works by Yukiya Izumita, the leading ceramicist’s return to New York for his fifth solo exhibition in the United States. Over 40 of Izumita’s latest laminate-layered sculptures, flat-folded vases, and tea bowls are on view from September 12 to October 3, 2024. Izumita’s unseen sceneries of earthen formations demonstrate his capacity to push the physical constraints of hand-built ceramic and miraculously defy the laws of gravity withstanding the intensity of the anagama tunnel-kiln fire. Yukiya Izumita (b. 1966) has established himself as a most innovative ceramicist from his remote kiln in Japan’s north-east Tohoku region. He seamlessly integrates the geographically-specific elements of Iwate Prefecture—namely its harsh northern climate and rural seaside locale—into the black, yellow, ... More FLAG Art Foundation announces "Lubaina Himid: Make Do and Mend" NEW YORK, NY.- The recipient of the 2024 Suzanne Deal Booth / FLAG Art Foundation Prize, British artist Lubaina Himid presents Make Do and Mend, a solo exhibition comprising two new bodies of work: a suite of Strategy paintings that depict Black men and women seated around tables featuring different configurations of objects—in each case, imagining a specific problem to be solved; and an arrangement of sixty four plank paintings entitled Aunties, building on her previous plank works that evoke the form of funerary objects from East Africa. This exhibition is co-organized by The Contemporary Austin. Throughout a career spanning four decades, Lubaina Himid, a self-described “painter and cultural activist,” has expanded the possibilities of storytelling through painting as a means of exploring the legacy of British colonialism ... More Alvar Aalto Medal 2024 goes to Belgian architect Marie-José Van Hee HELSINKI.- The fifteenth Alvar Aalto Medal has been awarded to Belgian architect Marie-José Van Hee. Her output covers a wide range of projects, from private houses to public spaces and cultural buildings. Van Hee’s works beautifully emphasise respect for architecture, nature and handicraft, as well as an understanding of traditional and folk building methods. “Marie-José Van Hee’s work shows a consistently sensitive, contextual, and finely crafted approach. Her architecture is rooted in its context and the surrounding landscape – not only reflecting but contributing to a Flemish local vernacular over the course of her career. Her work is characterised by a beautifully understated command of natural materials, light and proportions, producing quiet, intimate spaces, designed around daily life,” the Medal jury said in its statement. ... More 'Hannah Gadsby: Woof' review: A comic's pet themes EDINBURGH.- The title of Hannah Gadsby’s new stand-up show at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is “Woof,” but the Australian comic has a very specific type of dog bark in mind. It sounds like something between a burp and a cough. It’s impossible to spell, but if you had to, it might go something like “peuh.” Gadsby says it typically signals that the animal is about to go into a frenzy. As a metaphor for Gadsby’s state of mind, it’s inauspicious. Should we be concerned? Well, yes and no. For the most part, Gadsby’s new routine, at the Underbelly through Sunday, is a chill affair. Gadsby is on genial form, taking acerbic pot shots at Taylor Swift (“a can of Coke masquerading as a sorority cult”) and social media (“where neurotypical people go to experience the worst of autism”). There’s some pleasingly risque material about the sex lives of lesbian ... More Americas Society presents "The Appearance: Art of the Asian Diaspora in Latin America & the Caribbean" NEW YORK, NY.- Opening at Americas Society on September 4, 2024, the exhibition The Appearance: Art of the Asian Diaspora in Latin America & The Caribbean, is the first show in New York City to center on the artistic production of the Asian diaspora in the region from the 1950s to the present. Focusing on postwar and contemporary art, the exhibition showcases the work of twenty- nine artists from fifteen countries working in a range of artistic mediums including painting, sculpture, performance, photography, and video. The Appearance sheds light on the often-overlooked experiences and artistic trajectories of Asian diasporic subjects and collectives across Latin America and the Caribbean, contextualizing them within histories of transoceanic migration, displacement, and resettlement. The show embraces the multiple and int ... More Want to see a play about Gwyneth Paltrow's ski trial? How about 2? EDINBURGH.- Terry Sanderson, a retired optometrist, was unsuccessful when he sued the actress turned wellness entrepreneur Gwyneth Paltrow over a collision on a Utah ski slope. Though he claimed that she had crashed into him, a jury determined it was actually his fault. The livestreamed 2023 civil case was an unseemly but strangely fascinating spectacle featuring two equally dislikable archetypes: the vexatious litigant and the preening, out-of-touch celebrity. But in another sense, Sanderson won: His name is now forever etched into pop culture folklore, as not one but two new stage productions about the ski trial at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe attest. The more rough and ready of the two, “Gwyneth Goes Skiing,” at the Pleasance Courtyard, is a camp burlesque in which both parties are mercilessly skewered. Linus ... More PhotoGalleries Gabriele Münter TARWUK Awol Erizku Leo Villareal Flashback On a day like today, American sculptor Alexander Milne Calder was born August 23, 1846. Alexander Milne Calder (August 23, 1846 - June 4, 1923) was an American sculptor best known for the architectural sculpture of Philadelphia City Hall.
