In her detailed, realistic depictions, she portrays everyday scenes—people smoking a cigarette, playing cards, or hanging up laundry. At Kunsthaus Bregenz, she is also presenting sculptures created especially for these rooms. They draw on mythical narratives and are at the same time symbols of the contemporary human condition. Mirga-Tas gained international recognition in 2022 at the Venice Biennale, where she lined the Polish Pavilion with large-scale textile works. The three registers of images quote representations of months inspired by a famous Italian Renaissance fresco cycle: the calendar in the Palazzo Schifanoia in Ferrara. The zodiac signs in the center of her work are flanked by near life-size portraits. The top, colorful frieze tells the story of the Roma and their exodus to Europe. It is a narrative of migration and nomadic life, brought to life in a depiction of historical clothing, animal ...

Over the last six decades, Ralph Steadman has carved out a career by presenting his uncanny perspective — one that resonates with viewers. “It’s essential to have some form of expression within your reach that gives you something to dwell upon,” Steadman stated. ... More Minjung Kim, Blue Mountain, 2025. Ink and watercolor on mulberry Hanji paper, 44 x 51.5 cm. 17 1/2 x 20 1/2 in. MONACO.- 'Looking at Horizons,' held at Almine Rech Monaco from June 2025, explores contemporary manifestations of landscape painting. It hosts works by Joël Andrianomearisoa, Miquel Barceló, Petra Cortright, Johan Creten, Genieve Figgis, Daniel Gibson, Youngju Joung, Minjung Kim, John McAllister, Anthony Miler, César Piette, Salvo, Gert & Uwe Tobias, and Jess Valice. Through the diversity of their inspiration and research, they celebrate landscape as a complex pictorial genre that questions the material aspects of a territory as much as the way we look at it. At a time of great climatic challenges, these artists invite us to observe living things and spaces with curiosity, delicacy, and care. Investigating landscape today is giving a form to our collective concerns, questioning our perception of nature, and the condition of painting itself. Whether they pay homage to the history of the genre or they inaugurate a new ... More BWA Standing Figure, Late 19th-Early 20th C., Wood, H: 18 in. NEW YORK, NY.- To honor the reopening of Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Michael C. Rockefeller Wing and its Arts of Africa, Ancient Americas, and Oceania galleries, Throckmorton Fine Art is presenting Art of Africa & The Americas, a collaborative exhibition of historical African and Pre-Columbian sculpture paired with vintage prints by Malian photographer Malick Sidibé and pastels of Fang sculpture by Robert Ziering.

Among the works being offered is an extraordinary and beautiful hawk mask from the estate collection of New York collector Thomas Wheelock, as well as masks and statuary formerly owned by Merton D. Simpson, Philip Pearlstein, Noble Endicott, the Bereiss family, Hél ... More A new British Museum Partnership Exhibition features Indigenous artistry from the Arctic Galleria Continua transforms into "house of art" with "Pièces à vivre" group exhibition 'Monet, Van Gogh, Renoir and more: A Century of Modern Art' opens in Auckland Shedding Natchiayaaq from Kigiktaq - Erin Ggaadimits Ivalu Gingrich © The Trustees of the British Museum © Erin Ggaadimits Ivalu Gingrich. REDCAR.- Arctic Expressions at Kirkleatham Museum, Redcar, explores life for Indigenous Peoples in North America's Arctic regions, Alaska and Canada. The exhibition shows how these resilient communities live with and adapt to socio-political and environmental changes, and how artistic expression is an important part of daily life. With themes such as seasonality, human-animal relationships and migration, the exhibition shows historic and contemporary works from the British Museum collection, including new artwork from Alaska Native, Koyukon Dené and Iñupiaq artist Erin Ggaadimits Ivalu Gingrich. Titled Shedding Natchiayaaq from Kigiktaq, the work represents a seal's transformation from infancy to youth. It is being displayed alongside a seal decoy helmet collected on Captain Cook's last voyage to North America, highlighting the profound spiritual and cultural significance of seals for Inuit. The Arctic is home to around four million people across eight countries. More than 400,000 of these are ... More Ai Weiwei, Broadway Boogie Woogie in Combination of Lego, 2020.

From its inception, Galleria Continua’s first Parisian space has stood out thanks to its uniquelocation : a former wholesale leather goods store, resembling a through- house, nestled in the heart of the Marais. Since its opening in 2021, the gallery has challenged traditional exhibition norms - most notably with its inaugural show Truc à faire, conceived by artist JR during the pandemic, which transformed the space into a supermarket, with an act ... More Vincent van Gogh, Wheat Fields with Reaper, Auvers, 1890, oil on canvas, Toledo Museum of Art, Purchased with funds from the Libbey Endowment, Gift of Edward Drummond Libbey. AUCKLAND.- Encounter inspiring masterpieces by some of the most influential artists of all time in A Century of Modern Art at Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki.

Auckland Art Gallery Senior Curator International Art Sophie Matthiesson says, “A Century of Modern Art traces the revolutionary transformations in Western painting from the 1860s to the 1960s. This timeframe witnessed the introduction of electricity, two world wars, multiple social revolutions and the nuclear age. “It is an extraordinary chance to see these ... More Thaddaeus Ropac Salzburg presents historic installations and paintings by Ilya and Emilia Kabakov Raqib Shaw's epic "Paradise Lost" unveiled in full at the Art Institute of Chicago Sadie Coles HQ opens 'Kati Heck: Dear Cobalt Monsters' at Bortolami Gallery, New York Ilya and Emilia Kabakov, The Fallen Chandelier, 1997. Large 12 Light Cage Frame Chandelier, French, c. 1930. Chandelier 136 × 131 cm (53.54 × 51.57 in). SALZBURG.- Thaddaeus Ropac Salzburg presents a selection of historic works by pioneering conceptual artists Ilya and Emilia Kabakov. The exhibition covers paintings by Ilya Kabakov, dating from 2005 to 2015, and installations from the Kabakovs’ collaborative practice, which spanned 1989 to Ilya’s passing in 2023. Every installation presented is a meticulously arranged composition of objects, artworks, texts, lighting, and sound, designed to fully envelop the viewer in the experience, echoing the idea of the ‘total installation’ that has been central to their practice. The artists’ works allow for multiple interpretations, spanning political innuendos, personal fears and desires, as well as a longing to escape the harsh, at times unbearable, realities of daily life. Concert for a Fly (Chamber Music) is a historic installation, first exhibited in 1986 in Switzerland at the Neue Galerie, Dierikon, then in 1992 at the Cleveland Center for Contemporary Art, the Kölnischer Kuns ... More Paradise Lost (chapter 1), 2009–25. Raqib Shaw. Collection of the artist. CHICAGO, IL.- The Art Institute of Chicago is presenting Raqib Shaw: Paradise Lost, which is on view June 7, 2025–January 19, 2026. The installation is centered on a singular piece—a more than 100-foot-wide, 21 panel painting, Paradise Lost. The work, by the Kashmiri, London-based artist Raqib Shaw, is the most ambitious and personal project of his career to date. It presents an immersive, spellbinding journey through autobiography, mythology, and visionary imagination, which he started envisioning in 1999 and began creating in 2009. Paradise Lost is presented as a continuous unfolding of Shaw’s life in four chapters. Each panel of the work is dense with symbolism: mythical beasts, anthropomorphic hybrids, collapsing kingdoms, and natural beauty in various states of transformation. While early chapters of Paradise Lost have been shown in galleries elsewhere, this marks the first time all four chapters will be displayed together, showcasing the fullest extent yet of this epic painting. ... More Kati Heck, Monster (Juno), 2025 © Kati Heck. Courtesy the Artist and Sadie Coles HQ, London. Photo: Pieter Huybrechts. NEW YORK, NY.- These days it is hard to distinguish reality from fiction as endless streams of manipulated images distort and deceive with an unholy alliance of fabricated form and false meaning. Kati Heck’s paintings, sculptures, and installations disrupt this frisson of the familiar and the faux with a contrary counter-narrative that works against the grain to resist, unsettle, and trouble our understanding of modern experience. The installation loosely resembles the central and side panels of a polyptych altarpiece or perhaps the backdrop and scrims of a stage. Artifice, deception, and hybridity rule as all around shape-shifting figures, modeled by family and friends of the artist, enact inscrutable scenarios alongside human/animal amalgams, while nearby a sculpted “manhole” lets off steam! In this performative theatrical space, fluid brushwork and a meticulous realist technique seduce with an appealing subterfuge that artfully disguises Heck’s interrogation of the ways cultura ... More Aramis Navarro's new exhibition at Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen questions digital belief systems Perrotin Paris invites viewers to journey through spirit, memory, and myth ZKM Karlsruhe presents a major retrospective of Oscar-nominated artist Johan Grimonprez Aramis Navarro, «never odd or even», exhibition views at *ALTEFABRIK, Rapperswil, 2023. Photo: Stefan Altenburger. Courtesy: the artist. ST. GALLEN.- Do we believe in our devices? Network-based technologies such as ChatGPT or Google Maps have become our closest companions: They know every path and every answer. While these algorithmic intelligences increasingly elude our comprehension, we still believe they may bring salvation. Sometimes, their workings seem so inscrutable that we take them for magic. This ambivalent relationship is at the heart of the exhibition «algorithmic-mega- death-superspell.exe» by St.Gallen-based artist Aramis Navarro (*1991 in Zurich/CH). In his most comprehensive solo exhibition to date, Navarro explores algorithms as media of revelation and contemporary oracles. Language runs through his kaleidoscopic work as both material and method: Spoken lines of code turn into poems, fragments of algorithms into neon signs, letters into holy figures. His practice of typing thoughts and observations with a typewriter on recycled paper sheets often lays the groundwork for his pieces. ... More View of the exhibition 'Portals to Unwritten Time' at Perrotin Paris, 2025. Photo: Claire Dorn. Courtesy of all the artists and Perrotin. PARIS.- Portals to Unwritten Time begins with the premise that art can serve as a threshold across time. The works in the exhibition open new portals—toward spirit, memory, myth, and philosophical knowledge. The participating artists do not only look ahead; they move sideways through history, delve into the body, and project outward toward the unknown. A guiding inspiration for this journey is Hilma af Klint. For her, time did not flow in a straight line but spiraled—mystically, symbolically, through unseen realms. She envisioned her paintings as tools, diagrams, and portals—structures meant to speak one day to a more receptive future. The portal, in this context, is both metaphor and method. It is a visual and conceptual threshold—a symbolic opening through which new forms of knowledge may emerge. That knowledge is nonlinear, embo- died, and often poetic—born of intuition, memory, and the invisible. The exhibition features a constellation of artists who each, in their ... More Johan Grimonprez, Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat, 2024, Film Still © Johan Grimonprez. KARLSRUHE.- ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe presents a major retrospective of Belgian film and media artist Johan Grimonprez – including his Oscar®-nominated film Soundtrack to a Coup d’Etat. Who owns our imagination in a world where existence feels uncertain and truth drifts like a castaway? In the exhibition "All Memory Is Theft" at the ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe, Belgian film and media artist Johan Grimonprez explores this question. His works unfold in a complex journey that interweaves moving images, archival material, objects, and quotes in an intertextual web. In a time when truth and facts must contend with populism and fake news, Grimonprez creates film essays that are both poetic and critically attuned to the media. Grimonprez works like an archaeologist of the present: assembling fragments from TV news, advertising, cinema, amateur footage, and the internet, he crafts new narratives that challenge our perception of reality. His latest film, Soundtrack to ... More Across the River: Li Hei Di’s Painted Explorations of Selfhood More News Neuer Berliner Kunstverein opens Ghislaine Leung's first Berlin solo show, "Reproductions" BERLIN.- Neuer Berliner Kunstverein (n.b.k.) presents Berlin’s first solo exhibition by British artist Ghislaine Leung. Based on a rigorously conceptual yet deeply personal approach, Reproductions explores the administrative, financial, and infrastructural processes of exhibition-making through a series of new works. By employing strategies of withdrawal and refusal, Leung focuses on the reproductive aspects of institutional labor that decisively shape the outcome of artistic production and reception, but typically remain hidden. Reproductions foregrounds these activities, shifting attention to the many processes beyond the artist that are required to create and maintain the perceived neutrality of the contemporary exhibition format. Leung’s exhibition at n.b.k. recognizes that artistic production is embedded within a network of institutional, individual, and societal processes and ... More Altman Siegel presents "Nudes & Birds": A sensuous look at Stephen Pace's enduring passions SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Altman Siegel is presenting Stephen Pace’s second exhibition with the gallery. Nudes & Birds focuses on two subjects that enraptured and inspired Pace throughout his long career. Pace immediately took a shine to drawing as a teenager when his mother dropped him off at a local art class in Indiana where a nude model was posing for students. Pace cheekily recalled noting: this was for him. His passion for these subjects is evident in the sensuousness and ease of which he conjures these forms. Refreshingly jocular, Pace’s confident brushwork and inventive palette communicates the pleasure he gleaned from making this work as much as the narrative elements in the compositions do. This selection, spanning three decades from roughly 1960 - 1990, showcases the artist’s sustained fascination with and development of the female figure, and avian forms. At times ... More Final stop: The Crafted World of Wharton Esherick concludes national tour at Taft Museum of Art CINCINNATI, OH.- The Crafted World of Wharton Esherick, the largest exhibition of works from the rarely-loaned collection of the Wharton Esherick Museum, concludes its nationwide tour at the Taft Museum of Art June 7–September 7, 2025. The exhibition—co organized by the Brandywine Museum of Art in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania and the Wharton Esherick Museum in Malvern, Pennsylvania—presents the innovative work of Wharton Esherick (1887–1970), the famed American artist best known as the father of the studio furniture movement. Between 1926 and 1966, Esherick built his hillside home and studio in southeastern Pennsylvania. Now the Wharton Esherick Museum (WEM), it houses a treasury of work from seven decades of artistic practice. To share Esherick’s creative vision with contemporary audiences, The Crafted World draws on WEM’s rich and seldomly loaned ... More Marcos Chaves unveils new tapestry works and objects at Nara Roesler Sao Paulo SAO PAULO.- Nara Roesler São Paulo is presenting Blue Blood, a solo exhibition by Marcos Chaves (b. 1961, Rio de Janeiro), featuring new tapestry works alongside three objects, two of which date back to the 1990s. The exhibition builds upon an intervention the artist carried out in 2013 at the Eva Klabin Foundation in Rio de Janeiro, where Chaves presented rugs that were photographic replicas of fabric details from the foundation’s collection. In Blue Blood, Chaves displays the new red-toned tapestries on the walls—works that reproduce photographs taken by the artist of carpeted floors in historic European locations such as Palazzo Doria Pamphilij, built in 16th-century Rome; the staircase leading to Napoleon Bonaparte’s (1769–1821) only surviving throne, at the Château de Fontainebleau in France, which dates back to the early 12th century and served as a residence for French ... More The Andy Warhol Museum Advisory Board designates Jim Spencer as Chair PITTSBURGH, PA.- The Andy Warhol Museum advisory board named Jim Spencer as chair at their recent meeting.

He has been a Carnegie Museums trustee since 2019, and previously served on the advisory board of Carnegie Museum of Art. Spencer is the president and CEO of Exus Renewables North America (Exus). Prior to his tenure and Exus, he spent 35 years in the power industry managing the development and financing of energy projects in both developed and underdeveloped countries. He was the founder, president and CEO of Ever Power Wind Holdings, a national utility scale development and operating wind company, for 16 years. Spencer began his career as an attorney in the energy project finance group ... More Rockwell Refracted explores the power of color in American art CORNING, NY.- The Rockwell Museum announces the opening of Rockwell Refracted: Colorful Selections from the Permanent Collection, a vibrant and visually rich exhibition that explores the expressive and conceptual power of color in American art. On view from May 24 through September 8, 2025, the exhibition is part of the Museum’s year-long exploration of the theme Color!, which delves into how artists across cultures and time periods use color as both a formal and symbolic tool. “At The Rockwell, we believe art has the power to ignite conversations, provoke emotions, and inspire new ways of seeing the world,” said Erin M. Coe, the Museum’s executive director. “With this special exhibition, we apply our annual theme of Color! to an investigation of some of the most brilliant and brightest works in the Museum’s collection of American art, many of which are making their public debut. ... More Marc Selwyn Fine Art presents Jorinde Voigt's first L.A. solo show, "Works on Paper" BEVERLY HILLS, CALIF.- Marc Selwyn Fine Art is presenting Jorinde Voigt: Works on Paper, the artist’s first solo exhibition in Los Angeles, on view June 8 - August 2, 2025. This show features 18 immersive works on paper that translate complex and intangible concepts —from music to philosophy— into lyrical abstractions overlaid with a network of fine lines and meticulous notations. Known for her bold strokes of colors and shimmering gold and silver leaf accents, Voigt creates a synaesthetic world that simultaneously feels personal and universal. Jorinde Voigt (b. 1977) is a leading conceptual artist based in Berlin. Working principally within the medium of drawing, her works have been likened to musical scores, scientific diagrams, or thought models. Voigt develops conceptually rigorous systems of mark-making to visualize immaterial phenomena in color and form. Music, ... More Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education presents Berlin: A Jewish Ode to the Metropolis PORTLAND, OR.- Berlin: A Jewish Ode to the Metropolis showcases photographs by Portland photographer Jason Langer. The project is deeply personal to Langer, a reconciliation of impressions of the Holocaust that were seeded in him as a 10-year-old living on a kibbutz in Israel. Even after moving to America, Langer carried a deep fear of Germany, and Berlin, in particular. Years later, he set out for Berlin to confront and capture these impressions in film. In the five years that it would take to complete the series, Langer learned that Berlin–like so many places, people, and histories–is more complex than he realized. A city of dichotomies, the Berlin that Langer portrays in Berlin: A Jewish Ode to the Metropolis is marked by division and reunification in ways both ... More Now open free kids exhibition Plans for the Planet MELBOURNE.- This winter at the NGV, Swiss artist Olaf Breuning invites kids and families to explore and celebrate the natural world through art-inspired activities in the free exhibition Plans for the Planet: Olaf Breuning for Kids, at NGV International.

Through this exhibition, Breuning sparks meaningful conversations with the new generation about the world. Using a specially designed swipe card kids will ... More Kunsthalle Düsseldorf throws open doors to celebratory Bernd and Hilla Becher Prize exhibition DUSSELDORF.- Art enthusiasts and photography aficionados are invited to a profound visual journey as the Kunsthalle Düsseldorf today officially opens "Bernd and Hilla Becher Prize 2025," a dual exhibition honoring the esteemed Ursula Schulz-Dornburg and the vibrant emerging artist Farah Al Qasimi. On view through September 7, 2025, the show promises a deep dive into two distinct yet equally compelling photographic practices. At the heart of the exhibition is veteran photographer Ursula Schulz-Dornburg, the main recipient of the Bernd and Hilla Becher Prize 2025. Born in 1938 and a Düsseldorf resident since 1969, Schulz-Dornburg’s decades-spanning work delves into the very "verticality of time" itself. With an anthropologist's keen eye, she unearths forgotten narratives within landscapes and decaying political systems across Armenia, Kazakhstan, Yemen, Syria, and beyond. ...
