PARIS.- Almine Rech, Matignon is presenting 'Laurie Simmons: Black & White', the artists first exhibition with the gallery, on view from October 18 until December 20, 2025.

Simmons, raised in Long Island during the 1950s and early 1960s, grew up in a traditional suburban household, shaped by that eras rigid gender roles. When she learned about Matta-Clark's reconfigured suburban house (Splitting, 1974), she realized that destabilizing this totem of domesticity could provide her a way to examine the cultural norms it embodied. So in 1976 she bought a 1950s tin dollhouse, staged it with toy furniture and wallpaper swatches, and photographed the tiny rooms through its cutaway back wall. Occasionally she placed it in a brief patch of sunlight that appeared each morning in her studio. In those photographs, ... More

Pinakothek der Moderne exhibition reveals hidden environmental cost of global data infrastructure MUNICH.- The increasing datafication of our virtual and physical lives has lead to an exponential rise in the construction of data infrastructure, ranging from undersea cable networks to vast data centers.

These sites generate immense economic value, but they come at high environmental and social costs, often contested by local communities and environmental movements. Power-hungry and resource-intensive, they depend on clean water and local energy grids, concentrating economic and political influence in the hands of a few multinational corporations. Moreover, details about data production and data rights are often kept out of public debates. At the same time, data has virtually become ... More
