Land and Soil. How We Live Together, Exhibition view, Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, 2025, Photo: Linda Inconi-Jansen.
DUSSELDORF.- The exhibition Land and Soil. How We Live Together, on view at K21 of the Kun- stsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, focuses on the ways in which we live together as human beings. It addresses themes such as war, displacement, flight, and the destruction of nature, but also reconstruction and regeneration, housing, cultivation, ownership, and sharing. The exhibition invites visitors to envision possibilities for a just and sustainable future. For the first time, an exhibition extends across the entire K21 and the adjacent Ständehaus- park, also focusing on the ground on which the museum stands—both geographically and historically. Drawing from the building’s parliamentary past, thirty-four international artists and collectives explore various forms of resource management, ranging from Indigenous economic practices and collective ownership to utopian blockchain projects. Earth, coal, lotus silk, pine needles, chocolate: The exhibition goes back to basics in terms of materials and fo ... More
ROME.- A decade after the death of celebrated photographer Elisabetta Catalano (1944–2015), Rome’s MAXXI – National Museum of 21st Century Arts – is commemorating her legacy with a focused exhibition, Elisabetta Catalano. The Lens on Artists. The show offers a heartfelt tribute to a woman whose camera shaped the visual identity of contemporary Italian art. The exhibition brings together sixteen prints, both vintage and contemporary, recently added to the museum’s collection through the 2023 Strategia Fotografia public program, supported by Italy’s Ministry of Culture. Though modest in scale, the display feels expansive in spirit: each photograph opens a window onto the creative pulse of the late 20th century, capturing not only faces but the atmosphere of an entire artistic era. Catalano was known for her unique approach to portraiture—a blend of quiet psychological depth and an unmistakable sense of creative energy. Her photographs reveal the joy and tensio ... More
PARIS.- The colour blue has a particular resonance within Sean Scully’s practice, and with the exhibition Blue at Thaddaeus Ropac Paris Marais, his unique expression of light and emotion through chromatic nuance is celebrated to particularly poetic effect. Each of the nine gem-like Wall of Light paintings, in various shades of blue on copper, is an ode to the echoes of memory and place that the colour blue stirs in the artist. When asked by the poet and art critic Kelly Grovier when it was in his life that he first started thinking about art, Scully responded with a memory from his early childhood in London: ‘I remember I had a bicycle. And I’ll never forget it. It was a cerulean blue.’ It was in the recognition of ‘that lovely pale blue’ and the feelings it evoked, back in his earliest pre-school years, that Scully believes he became an artist. Scully began ... More
LOS ANGELES, CA.- David Zwirner is presenting Zvibereko zvemweya wangu, its third solo exhibition with the Zimbabwean artist Portia Zvavahera. Taking place at the gallery’s 606 N Western Avenue location in Los Angeles, this presentation features a series of new works that continues to develop Zvavahera’s experiments with different painting processes and subject matter by joining her carefully charted dream worlds with her lived experience and daily rituals. Zvavahera expands her practice with familiar motifs and narratives; her works are populated by symbolic creatures that become powerful conduits for the interpretation of spiritual visions and the contemplation of our earthly existence. In her paintings, Zvavahera gives form to emotions beyond the domains of everyday life and thought. Her vivid imagery is rooted in the cornerstones of our earthly existence—life and death, pain and pleasure, isolation and connection, and love ... More
Teresa Solar Abboud, Self-Portrait as a Pregnant Woman, 2025, photo: Ramiro Chávez.
HANOVER.- Kunstverein Hannover is presenting the first institutional solo exhibition of Teresa Solar Abboud in Germany, marking a defining moment in the artist’s evolving practice. Self-Portrait as a Pregnant Woman brings together a selection of her acclaimed works from recent years and introduces two major new sculptural productions commissioned by Kunstverein Hannover: Tunnel Boring Machine (Atlantic Ridge Multiplicity) and a new suite of Self-Portrait sculptures, which lend the exhibition its title and extend her exploration of hybrid, emergent bodies. The presentation also includes early video works and two dedicated rooms of drawings, demonstrating the breadth and continuity of Solar Abboud’s formal vocabulary. At the centre of her work lies an inquiry into the dense and intertwined networks that shape life—cultural, geological, industrial, and organic—and the ways these systems overlap, entangle, or collide. The exhibition takes its title from a new body ... More
Richard Slee, Square Chinese Vase and Knitting Needles, 2020. Glazed ceramic in nine (9) parts, 47 x 17 x 17 cm. 18 1/2 x 6 3/4 x 6 3/4 in.
LONDON.- Hales is presenting A Room for Keepsakes, a group show featuring works by Basil Beattie, Zoë Carlon, Ally Fallon, Carole Gibbons, Richard Slee and Zach Toppin. The exhibition brings together a cross-generational group of UK based artists exploring interior scenes imbued with psychological meaning. A Room for Keepsakes offers a meditation on the spaces we inhabit, both physical and psychological. The artists in the exhibition explore perception, memory and identity through interior scenes, where domestic and public settings are laden with ideas, narrative and imagery. Depictions of rooms, space and objects communicate a deep inner life, devoid of people but not presence. In Beattie’s paintings, pictorial elements hold significant meaning and psychological implications through the manipulation of painted surface. Throughout his career, Beattie has returned repeatedly to motifs of steps, ladders and staircases, ... More

LAUSANNE.- A graduate of London’s world-renowned Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, Kévin Germanier belongs to a new generation of designers who are shaking up the rules. With collaborations spanning pop icons such as Lady Gaga and Beyoncé, he has carved out a distinctive aesthetic that fuses bursts of colour, futuristic silhouettes and recycled materials. From forgotten beads, discarded fabrics and repurposed textiles, Germanier conjures up creations that marry elegance with sustainability — a vision of fashion brimming with optimism for the future. Hailing from the Swiss canton of Valais, Germanier draws inspiration from his regional heritage, particularly in crafts such as knitting. Working closely with local knitters, he champions traditional craftsmanship and weaves it seamlessly into his collections. This creative exchange with female artisans, overseen by his mother, grounds his work in cultural heritage while breathing contemporary life into it. The blend of tradit ... More
Tishan Hsu, skin-glitch, 2025. UV-print, silicone, ink, acrylic, stainless steel, on wood, 181.6 x 120.7 x 19.1 cm. 71 1/2 x 47 1/2 x 7 1/2 in.
NEW YORK, NY.- Lisson Gallery is presenting its first solo exhibition by Tishan Hsu. For over four decades, Hsu has investigated the advancing intersection between the human body and technological systems, developing a singular material language that blends digital imagery, industrial surfaces, and biomorphic forms. His latest show features a range of wall-based pieces, sculptural LED screens, and large-scale visual environments, all of which reflect a heightened engagement with both computational and medical infrastructures. Hsu’s painting practice seems far from traditional, although his early artistic training reflected many of the high Western canons and skills; ranging from the study of Renaissance glazing techniques to the epic landscapes of the Hudson River School and even the stippling and coloration of French Impressionism. Further studies in architecture, film and ... More
PARIS.- At the invitation of the Louvre, Marlene Dumas created Liaisons, a work consisting of nine paintings conceived for the vast wall of the Porte des Lions atrium. The dimensions of the canvases match those of the marble bas-reliefs that once hung on this wall. Liaisons thus becomes part of the history of the Louvre and its museography. It also fits into the history of large-scale painted décors, artistic interventions, and in situ commissions in museum spaces. Marlene Dumas designed Liaisons for this space, located at the entrance to the Gallery of the Five Continents and the Louvre's painting department, close to the Grande Galerie. This proximity to renowned masterpieces of painting takes on particular significance given that the artist's work is deeply rooted in this medium, constantly combining sources and stories, much like the musée du Louvre itself. These “liaisons,” a title given by the artist based on a word that exists in both French and English, ... More

ROME.- Marginalia are annotations, drawings, and doodles that appear in the margins of stories, documents, or illuminated manuscripts. Extravagant creatures that deviate from the central discourse of the work, housed in foliage surrounding the main text. What happens outside the walls creates gardens that overflow the boundaries of the page. In these margins, a herbarium unfolds in which botanical species are suspended in time between two bodies: human and plant. All these herbs embody human identities that have had to become landscape as a defense mechanism; mimicry and metamorphosis protect those who are persecuted, and the botanical blindness we suffer makes them go unnoticed: Thus, two fennel plants in love intertwine, longing for each other. Now that they no longer have a body, no one will come to bother them. A moth mimics a deadly hornet to scare away entomologists. It perches on a mulberry tree and ... More
Stasys Eidrigevičius, Photographs with Masks of Čiurlionis' Reproductions, 2024.
PANEVEZYS.- Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis’s unique work has become an example and a source of inspiration for many generations of artists. However, the creative relationship between Stasys Eidrigevičius and Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis is different. Having grown up with reproductions of Čiurlionis’ works since his school days, Eidrigevičius nurtures a special relationship with this icon of Lithuanian art. He sees Čiurlionis as a kindred spirit. He pays him respect and gratitude for the fact that he is not alone in seeing the world in this way. Owing to a similar sensibility, Eidrigevičius engages with Čiurlionis as an equal in his creative practice. Understanding Čiurlionis’ work requires a deeper, sometimes even transcendent, perspective appreciation. While Čiurlionis’ work is rooted in nature and the world of fairy tales, Eidrigevičius tends to depict the world in a grotesque manner, revealing ... More
Agnès b. often uses garments as a medium for her photographs, which she shoots specifically to be applied as an all-over print on a particular textile.
PARIS.- Agnès b. and the Louvre are collaborating this autumn to launch a unique collection of clothing and accessories inspired by museum works that shaped the famous designer's aesthetic. She has immersed herself in the light and poetry of two landscapes by Claude Gellée, known as Claude Lorrain (1600–1682), seeking to put them 'into clothing' and 'into motion'. Agnès b. often uses garments as a medium for her photographs, which she shoots specifically to be applied as an all-over print on a particular textile. In this way photoprints, as a link between art and clothing, become an invitation to contemplation for the designer, who discovered the Musée du Louvre when she was eleven. Captivated by Titian's Man with a Glove and his gaze beyond the frame, she dreamed of being a museum curator. 'These are trippy landscapes, open to the sea, to the beyond, to otherness. Lorrain's opening ... More
Rosalind Nashashibi, Vase with Flowers, Hand with Stone, 2025.
THE HAGUE.- From 29 November 2025, KM21 presents Stones: the first solo museum exhibition in the Netherlands of the Palestinian British artist Rosalind Nashashibi (1973). Her work explores collective history, power structures and modes of coexistence. Nashashibi captures everyday intimate moments in a highly personal way. The exhibition features a selection of recent and new paintings together with the film Electrical Gaza, in which the artist shows Gaza as if under an enchantment, constantly transforming from the reality of a besieged ‘strip’ into its magical other and making us aware that the truth lies in both depictions. The 16mm film Electrical Gaza (2015) depicts a still intact and lively Gaza, shot in 2014 before the Israeli attacks on the area. Nashashibi fuses footage of daily life with animations and a hypnotic soundscape, giving seemingly everyday scenes an alienating atmosphere. This charged ... More

MACBA marks 30 years with Pan-African exhibition and a bold reimagining of its collection BARCELONA.- MACBA opened its doors for the first time on 28 November 1995, giving the city of Barcelona its first public contemporary art museum, a milestone achieved thanks to the desire and drive of the artistic and cultural community and civil society. Thirty years later, the museum continues to support the need to generate new narratives, to make visible and accommodate other ways of understanding the world.

In short, the museum has conceived a special 30th anniversary programme of activities and exhibitions that will continue throughout the year. At the heart of the anniversary ... More
Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw unveils five centuries of women's art with landmark exhibitions WARSAW.- Two concurrent exhibitions, The Woman Question 1550–2025 and The City of Women, will launch MSN Warsaw’s second year of operations in its new building. Nearly 200 women artists from around the world, from Artemisia Gentileschi and Angelika Kauffmann, through Tamara Łempicka, Frida Kahlo and Eva Hesse, to Marlene Dumas, Tracey Emin, Leonor Antunes, Yoko Ono and Tala Madani. Five centuries of art by women, a display of their commitment and the force of feminist initiatives—The Woman Question and The City of Women offer a fresh retelling of art history, leading to a revision of the so-called canon and undermining the accepted view that before the 20th century women artists were rare exceptions. The Woman Question was prepared by the curator and art historian Alison M. Gingeras, who is familiar to MSN Warsaw audiences ... More
A year of magic, memory and experimentation: CAC Brétigny unveils its 2025-2026 off-site program BRÉTIGNY-SUR-ORGE .- The CAC Brétigny reveals its program for the new season, welcoming its new director Marion Vasseur Raluy with her project titled “Greffe d’Ouvert”—a term borrowed from institutional psychotherapy which allows one to imagine the institution as a place where other thoughts, people, and working methods can be transplanted into its structure to change how the institution is conceived. For the 2025–2026 season, the CAC Brétigny will initiate these reflections through an off-site program of exhibitions, events, and residencies in various spaces due to ongoing renovations at the art center’s primary exhibition space. Lettres du quotidien—Extraits, débuts, jeux, traces is an exhibition which invites visitors to discover the works of artists Malak El Zanaty Varichon and her daughter Mona Varichon. The exhibition gathers a large body of works created ... More
Gasworks presents its 2026 exhibitions programme LONDON.- In 2026 Gasworks presents four solo exhibitions by Umi Ishihara, Gabriel Abrantes, Thuy Tien Nguyen and Paloma Contreras Lomas. Umi Ishihara is a Japanese artist and filmmaker based in London. Her subversive films mix documentary and fiction, often including marginalised ideas and voices, and casts made up of non-actors, friends and family. At Gasworks, Umi will present a new commission that follows women in Tokyo working in strip clubs whose lives have been shaped by music, nightlife, and drug-taking. Through their stories, she explores the blurred boundaries between pleasure and vulnerability in spaces that awaken after dark. Gabriel Abrantes is an artist and filmmaker based in Lisbon.
