NEW YORK, NY.- For more than three decades, New York gallerist Steven Kasher has championed artists and photographic archives and reshaped how we understand visual culture—from Civil Rights-era photography to overlooked masters. In his new book, Memoir of a Collection: Finding Meaning through Art, to be published by Abbeville Press on April 7, 2026, Kasher turns his attention inward, reflecting on the artworks that shaped his life and career. Part memoir, part art criticism, and part philosophical inquiry, the illustrated volume brings together a series of linked essays in which Kasher examines the images, many from his own collection, that left a lasting mark on him—works that illuminate not only the artists who created them but also the personal and historical experiences through which we encounter art. “Every collector has a story about how an artwork entered their life,” Kasher writes. “The deeper story is how the art enters your consciousness and stays ...

LISBON.- MAAT – Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology presents Poetic Earth, a major exhibition by Anna Maria Maiolino (Scalea, 1942), one of the most acclaimed and influential figures in contemporary Latin American art, awarded the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement in the 60th International Venice Biennale in 2024.

Since the 1980s, Maiolino has been developing a vast body of work in clay and other mouldable materials, and exploring processes of transformation, repetition and resistance, in which manual work takes on a s ...

Ecuador Pavilion at the Venice Biennale presents Tawna & Oscar VENICE.- Ecuador announces that it will be represented at the 61st Venice Biennale by Tawna and Oscar Santillán. The Pavilion of Ecuador is curated by Manuela Moscoso. Tawna & Oscar brings together two practices shaped by Amazonian and Andean territories, each engaging forms of knowledge, relation, and imagination that have long remained outside the terms through which Western modernity has sought to define the world. The exhibition does not propose a single narrative or a unified image of Ecuador. Instead, it brings into proximity distinct ways of inhabiting and sensing the present, attending to what dominant systems have ignored, rendered invisible, or refused to recognize as fully real. The project unfolds through a shared concern with worlds that persist beyond the authority of classification, extraction, and separation. In Tawna’s work, memory, ... More

On a day like today, English painter and educator John Constable died
March 31, 1837. John Constable RA (11 June 1776 - 31 March 1837) was an English landscape painter in the Romantic tradition. Born in Suffolk, he is known principally for revolutionising the genre of landscape painting with his pictures of Dedham Vale, the area on the borderland of Suffolk and north Essex surrounding his home – now known as "Constable Country" – which he invested with an intensity of affection. "I should paint my own places best", he wrote to his friend John Fisher in 1821, "painting is but another word for feeling". In this image: Hove Beach by John Constable.
