NEW YORK, NY.- 200E20TH presents Curious Company, a two-person exhibition featuring works by Mie Yim and Paul Joseph Vogeler, curated by Jenny Mushkin Goldman of Agency Esta. The exhibition is currently on view by appointment through August 28 in the Sky Garden Penthouse. As the third exhibition presented in the residence, Curious Company continues 200E20TH’s ongoing arts initiative, bringing contemporary art outside the traditional gallery setting and creating an interplay between the artwork and its domestic setting. Curious Company brings together the distinct practices of Yim and Vogeler in a dialogue throughout the residence. Rather than presenting the works in a traditional white cube gallery, visitors engage with the artwork within a space where architecture, natural light, furnishings, and sweeping city views become part of the viewing experience. Throughout the penthouse, a menagerie of unusual creatures, flowers, birds, vessels, disco ... More

Casablanca (Warner Bros., 1942). Very Fine- on Linen. Six Sheet (78.75" X 80.25").
DALLAS, TX.- When Heritage Auctions rounds up the usual suspects for its August 28–29 Movie Posters Signature Auction, one large-format showpiece will stand especially tall in the lineup: the best original-release poster for the greatest film of all time. What’s more, this linen-backed six-sheet poster for Casablanca is in the best condition of all the examples of its kind that have ever come through Heritage. “This shouldn’t exist,” says Zach Pogemiller, Associate Movie Posters Director at Heritage. “Very few of these posters have survived because they were pasted to walls and then scraped off after the movie’s run or covered over with the next one. Theaters bought them and cut them up to make displays. There was no reason to keep a poster for a movie that people could no longer see.” Of course, more than eight decades after its original run, people can and do still watch the film that won the 1943 Academy Award for Best Picture and has consistently been ra ...

NEW YORK, NY.- The dream of photography was born of the observations of a Muslim scholar imprisoned early in the 11th century during the Arab Enlightenment. His darkened cell was the first documented Camera Obscura, created by the effects of light projecting images of the outside world onto the walls of his prison cell. From this observation, Ibn Al-Haytham would unravel the entangled knot that was the mystery of light and vision. Upon his release, he would write his 7-volume treatise on optics. It was the birth of empirical science. Eventually, his ideas would become the central thesis of 18th-century natural philosophers: Religious dogma could not explain the wonders of the world, but rigorous, objective observation revealed the hand of God in the essential truths of the universe. Light was the key: The photon is a massless messenger particle that only has one function: To tell us something about something else. The lens, in all of its iterations, whether the Newtonian telescope, a ... More

Mario Bros. - PSA 9.2 A++ Sealed [Gloss Sticker, First Production], NES Nintendo 1986 USA.
DALLAS, TX.- The original Mario Bros. is the first game named for the character whose popularity has for decades made him one of the most recognized characters in the world and the mascot of gaming giant Nintendo. A moderately successful arcade game before it joined the second wave of Nintendo Entertainment System titles in 1986, Mario Bros. introduced floating coins, enemy turtles and Mario’s twin brother, Luigi, and it is the game that compelled his career change from carpenter to plumber. And of all the known first-production copies of the game for the massively popular Nintendo Entertainment System, the PSA 9.2 A++ Mario Bros. copy for sale in Heritage Auctions’ August 28–29 Video Games Signature Auction is the only sealed example. Evan Masingill, Heritage Auctions’ Consignment Director of Video Games, says an unmatched, one-of-a-kind copy of the predecessor to Super Mario Bros. makes a fitting follow-up to the June 12–13 Video Games Signature Auction’s headline ...

MEXICO CITY.- Museo Jumex presents Helen, a solo exhibition by 羖varo Urbano (Madrid, 1983). Bringing together the stories of artists Helen Fowler O'Gorman, Helen Escobedo, and, through them, architect Juan O'Gorman, the exhibition creates an immersive site-specific space where different temporalities and memories converge around Casa Cueva, one of the landmarks of modern Mexican architecture. Rather than approaching the site as a fixed architectural icon, Helen unfolds through the intertwined lives, memories, and material traces that have shaped its history across generations. Urbano conceives this architecture as an almost oneiric space where house and landscape dissolve into one another. Within this setting, vegetal forms emerge as active protagonists, inhabiting fictional worlds that unfold through their encounters with the viewer. In Helen, Casa Cueva ... More

RIGA.- From 22 August to 18 October 2026, the exhibition AERO by the artist duo Poetic Robotism (Laura Prikule and Eva Vēvere) is taking place in the Cupola Hall of the main building of the Latvian National Museum of Art (Jaņa Rozentāla laukums 1, Riga). What could happen when the visitor becomes an active participant in an exhibition? How could a single artwork transform into countless variations? How could the creative process reveal the multifaceted roles of a contemporary museum? The answers to these questions are sought by AERO, an exhibition of changing forms in the LNMA Cupola Hall. Presenting a novel exhibition format, it takes the shape of an interactive, visitor-engaging installation that generates live, dynamic artistic situations. At its core is the ongoing presence of the artists – throughout the exhibition, Laura Prikule and Eva Vēvere will continue to develop the exhibition on-site using co-creative ... More

Mikhael Subotzky marks 20 years with Goodman Gallery in new solo exhibition JOHANNESBURG.- Twenty years after his first exhibition with Goodman Gallery, Mikhael Subotzky returns with A Johannesburg Landscape, a layered portrait of the city assembled from new and reconfigured images that find form in paintings, photographs and Sticky-tape Transfers. Johannesburg – fragmented, contradictory, continually reinventing itself – is both the exhibition’s subject and its structure: a complex set of interlocking typologies that Subotzky dismantles and reconstructs. In 2005, when Subotzky – a recent fine art graduate – was introduced to Goodman founder Linda Givon, she insisted on taking his photographic works to Art Basel that year, where everything sold. A year later, Die Vier Hoeke and Umjiegwana, his unflinching study of South Africa’s prison system, was presented at Goodman Gallery in Johannesburg alongside a satellite exhibition at the Women’s ...

Marie Jose Gallery to reopen with Sabaya V.'s solo exhibition Belonging LONDON.- Marie Jose Gallery will reopen the gallery soon and will present Belonging, its upcoming photographic exhibition by Sabaya V., opening on Tuesday 8th September. Across the plains of Argentina, the beaches of Rio de Janeiro and the towns and villages of Punjab, Sabaya found the same thread running through each encounter: a profound connection between people, their work, their traditions and the places they call home. “Every place has its own identity, shaped not only by its landscapes but by the people who call it home. Across the plains of Argentina, the beaches of Rio de Janeiro and the towns and villages of Punjab, I found the same quiet thread running through each encounter: a profound connection between people, their work, ther traditions and the places they call home.

Aneta Kajzer and Ilse Henin meet across generations in exhibition at Galerie Rupert Pfab D躍SELDORF .- The paintings and drawings of Aneta Kajzer and Ilse Henin come together in face to face, an exhibition that places two artists from different generations in an unexpectedly close conversation. Opening September 4 and running through October 24, 2026, the show explores a shared fascination with transformation, nature and the increasingly fluid boundaries between human, animal and landscape. Despite the differences in their backgrounds and approaches, Kajzer and Henin create worlds in which identities rarely remain fixed. Bodies appear to merge with landscapes, organic forms suggest animals or faces, and figures seem to emerge only to dissolve again. Their works invite viewers into spaces where memory, imagination and lived experience overlap, and where distinctions between species and environments become less certain. ... More
Open call: Culinary Residency at DAS MINSK Kunsthaus in Potsdam POTSDAM.- Originally opened as a terrace restaurant in 1977, DAS MINSK now operates as a museum of modern and contemporary art. Its history as a place of hospitality, exchange, and social life continues to shape the building to this day, while its architecture, historical use, and transformation from a restaurant to a museum create a unique space for artistic, culinary, and intellectual dialogue. Drawing on the venue’s history and present moment, the newly launched Culinary Residency program at DAS MINSK Kunsthaus in Potsdam situates the building as a place where art, food, memory, and the public intersect. The Culinary Residency invites chefs, artists, food designers, and those with interdisciplinary practices to explore the history of the former terrace restaurant or new, contemporary forms of communal dining. We are seeking proposals that ... More
Pi Artworks London now representing Antonio Cosentino LONDON.- Pi Artworks announced the representation of Antonio Cosentino (b. 1970, Istanbul), who lives and works in Istanbul. Working across painting, sculpture, installation, photography, video and writing, Cosentino has developed a distinctive practice rooted in the changing fabric of the city and in the relationship between memory, everyday life and imagination. A founding member of Hafriyat Collective, established in 1996, Cosentino emerged from a generation of artists who turned their attention to the street, popular culture and the contradictions of a rapidly transforming Istanbul. The city has remained central to his work ever since. Long walks, photographs, buildings, vehicles, signs, discarded objects and chance encounters accumulate across his practice, forming what has been described as a visual diary of urban life. Reality and fiction sit easily alongside ... More
Ayyam Gallery will present Hisham Sharif's debut solo exhibition in the UAE DUBAI.- Ayyam Gallery will present Hisham Sharif’s first solo exhibition at the gallery and in the UAE. Hisham Sharif’s practice offers a vulnerable, nuanced presentation of life. Please join us for the vernissage on September 23rd, from 6 PM to 9 PM, in the presence of Hisham Sharif. Influenced by 19th-century French painting and beyond, Sharif’s language is foreign to the region and to his local contemporaries, yet beneath its apparent estrangement, his practice illuminates a rather conservative society, unveiling the subtleties, rituals, and quiet rhythms that shape their everyday life. Privacy and intimacy are where Sharif introduces color, expressive hues that meld harsh truths with illusions of what could be. Sharif’s approach ensures that his depiction of these taboos is conveyed through humble depictions that preserve a certain Oriental sensibility, avoiding ... More
Hammer Museum hosts symposium The Manifestation of Form LOS ANGELES, CA.- On the occasion of the closing weekend of Several Eternities in a Day: Form in the Age of Living Materials, the Hammer Museum at UCLA presents a closing symposium featuring talks by artists, curators, museum professionals and scholars. The program is co-presented with the Fowler Museum at UCLA. The symposium will examine the bond between the ontological dimension of the art object and the use of mineral and organic materials emerging from Brown and Indigenous worlds. These conversations will focus on key questions raised by the exhibition, underscoring how the notion of living materials can recast museological practices while challenging the practice of ownership within art collections and questioning established conservation and display protocols. Artist Rose B. Simpson kicks off the program with her keynote presentation, ... More

On a day like today, Italian painter Guido Reni died
August 18, 1642. Guido Reni (4 November 1575 - 18 August 1642) was an Italian Baroque painter, although his works showed a classical manner, similar to Simon Vouet, Nicolas Poussin, and Philippe de Champaigne. He painted primarily religious works, but also mythological and allegorical subjects. Active in Rome, Naples, and his native Bologna, he became the dominant figure in the Bolognese School that emerged under the influence of the Carracci.
