BASEL.- This autumn, the Fondation Beyeler presents the first solo exhibition in Switzerland dedicated to the work of Yayoi Kusama (*1929, lives and works in Tokyo), one of the most groundbreaking artists of the 20th and 21st centuries. The exhibition, developed in close collaboration with the artist and her studio, brings together over 300 works from Japan, Singapore, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Sweden, France and Switzerland, underscoring the global resonance and enduring impact of Kusama’s artistic legacy. Spanning over seven decades, the exhibition traces Kusama’s extraordinary journey from her earliest creative efforts in postwar Japan to her internationally celebrated status today. Beginning with rarely seen paintings and watercolours made in the early 1950s in her hometown of Matsumoto, the exhibition follows her bold transition to New York in the late 1950s, where she played a formative role in the avant-garde scenes of the 1960s and 1970s. Returning to Japan in the 19 ... More
TILBURG.- Haus of fibre invites everyone to ‘come in’ and immerse themselves in a warm, vibrant and unconventional home where all identities are embraced. On view until 15 March 2026, the exhibition explores the powerful role of textiles in queer art, identity and activism. Featured artists include melanie bonajo, Marcos Kueh and Walter Van Beirendonck, alongside previously unseen work by Ada Maricia Patterson. Haus of fibre is the result of a unique co-creation process. After an open call, four queer artists were selected to collaborate with the museum to develop the exhibition – from concept and design to the public programme. These artists are Nixie Van Laere, Célio Braga, Chathuri Nissansala and Yamuna Forzani. Drawing inspiration from the museum’s collection as well as the work of queer artists past and present, the team together created an exhibition in which textiles function ... More
Greywacke Goddess. Photo: David Aaron Ltd.
LONDON.- Leading London antiquities dealership David Aaron Ltd announced the exhibition of a remarkable rediscovery at this year’s Frieze Masters (15–19 October, The Regent’s Park, London, UK); a masterfully carved Egyptian statue, long misattributed and overlooked, now revealed to be a true masterpiece of Late Period sculpture. The Frieze Masters presentation centres around a powerful and enigmatic bust titled A Goddess by the Greywacke Master, dated to the reign of Amasis II (570–526 B.C.), Dynasty XXVI. Carved from a fine dark stone called metagreywacke, the piece has emerged from decades of obscurity and misunderstanding to reclaim its place as one of the finest Egyptian sculptures of its kind in private hands today. For over forty years, this striking head, elegantly carved, with serene features and a striated wig, lay hidden from public view in a private collection. When it resurfaced at a Gloucestershire auction in 2022, ... More

FERRARA.- Stepping through the grand doors of the Palazzo dei Diamanti today is not just a walk into a historic Renaissance palace; it is an immediate, intoxicating immersion into the kaleidoscopic soul of Marc Chagall. The major new exhibition, “Chagall: Witness of His Time,” which opened on October 11, 2025, is a profound and emotionally resonant journey that reveals the master painter not just as the poet of dreamy, floating lovers, but as a keenly perceptive observer of a turbulent century. For art lovers and those new to the 20th-century genius, the show—running until February 8, 2026—promises a perspective that bridges the gap between Chagall’s seemingly simple, magical scenes and the deep, universal themes of his life. Through 200 works, including paintings, drawings, and engravings, alongside spectacular immersive rooms, visitors are invited to witness how a man who experienced exile, war, and loss transformed his personal history into shared human reflection. Ma ... More
ANTWERP.- The Associations of Pauline Curnier Jardin is the first survey exhibition dedicated to Pauline Curnier Jardin’s artistic career, which emerged twenty years ago at the intersection of cinema, performance and the visual arts. The title announces a story: a story of groups formed throughout the artist’s career, of the affinities she has forged over time, and the feminist, civic, and creative commitments that have shaped her practice. The exhibition unfolds as a gathering, a reunion of people and characters, rituals and places, associating to form a hybrid practice driven by a constant search for freedom, transformation and emancipation. For the first time, an extensive collection of works from the period 2006-2024 has been brought together, including more than twenty films directed by the artist. These give a clear idea of the range of cinematic styles and genres that she explores: from documentaries to films in theatrical settings, filmed performances to tableaux vivants, tales ... More
BREMEN.- “Alberto Giacometti. The Measure of the World” (11 October 2025 – 15 February 2026) at the Kunsthalle Bremen is the first major Alberto Giacometti exhibition on the life and work of the Swiss sculptor and painter to be held in Germany in more than ten years. It is also the first retrospective that focuses on Giacometti’s in-depth exploration of the place of humanity in the world and in nature. Over one hundred works will be on display, including sculptures, paintings, drawings, and prints. The exhibition has been co-organised by the Kunsthalle Bremen and the Fondation Giacometti. Alberto Giacometti (1901-1966) is one of the most important European artists of twentieth century. With his impressively elongated figures, the sculptor fundamentally reformulated sculpture after the Second World War. The exhibition “The Measure ... More
The house on Laan van Meerdervoort, with several Njiokiktjien children and their cousins from the Ongkiehong family / Project Ilvy Njiokiktjien.
THE HAGUE.- Fotomuseum Den Haag opened its doors today for the powerful and deeply personal exhibition, 'Generasi 3.0 - The Stories We Carry,' offering a crucial, new perspective on the Netherlands' colonial history in the former Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia). This exhibition is not a historical overview; it's an intimate, sometimes painful, family reckoning. Nine photographers and artists, all part of the third generation—born in the Netherlands with roots in the former colony—have used their craft to explore how the past still shapes their present. For them, the colonial era isn't a closed chapter in a history book, but a living echo in their identities and families. The search for roots begins with tangible clues. For many, this means old family albums. Ilvy Njiokiktjien's journey, for instance, starts with a century-old photograph leading her to a house in The Hague where her Chinese- ... More
MILAN.- From October 11, 2025 to February 15, 2026, Pirelli HangarBicocca presents "This Will Not End Well," the first exhibition dedicated to the work of Nan Goldin as a filmmaker. The Italian iteration reunites the biggest corpus of slideshows ever presented together, featuring two additional works, displayed in a museum context for the first time in Europe, alongside a new commission, an immersive sound installation that resonate the emotional impact of Goldin’s installations. “I have always wanted to be a filmmaker. My slideshows are films made up of stills,” says Nan Goldin. The retrospective is installed in unique buildings designed by Hala Wardé, an architect who frequently works with Goldin. Each building is designed in response to the specific piece. Together they constitute a village. While the title of the exhibition “This Will Not End Well” may seem dark and foreboding, it is ...

NEW YORK, NY.- The first 'on-site', country house-style auction came to Long Island City and the market responded as Christie's auction Crafted & Collected: The Jonathan Burden Sale, produced stellar results and brought new collectors to the table. The sale totaled $1,065,784, was 97 percent sold by lot, and 219 percent sold hammer plus premium above low estimate. More than one in three buyers and bidders was new to Christie's. The sale confirmed an innovative approach agreed to by Christie's and the consignor: the celebrated antique furniture conservator and dealer, Jonathan Burden. In a nod to the country house sales of old, the entire viewing was held at Mr. Burden's Long Island City studio where clients were invited to view the collection in person while bidding took place online. Comprising an eclectic mix of objects spanning centuries and styles—from 18th-century Anglo-Indian and Georgian furniture to modern lighting and contemporary pieces designed by Burden himself—the sale reflecte ...

Sabrina Tirvengadum, Great Grand, 2022.
LONDON.- This major group exhibition examines how photographs can be deconstructed and reassembled through the idea of collage, offering new perspectives on complex histories and contested social realities. With deep roots in activism and artistic experimentation, photomontage has a rich legacy as a powerful tool for artists engaging with experiences of political dissent and erasure. Its possibilities are amplified by the relentless evolution of photography - a medium shaped by technological advancement and the shifting politics of representation. From cut paper to generative AI, more than 90 works by 13 contemporary artists use collage as both method and metaphor, highlighting the fragility of photographic ‘truth’ and the archives that hold it. Sabrina Tirvengadum uses an AI model she trained on family photographs to reconstruct a fractured history shaped by the legacy of indentured labour in Mauritius; Sunil Gupta’s digital collages from the 1990s navigate the intersections of ...

Käthe Schmidt (Kollwitz), 1867–1945, Portrait of Else Rupp, ca. 1890, Oil on canvas, 615 x 495 mm. Permanent loan from the Rautenberg Estate at the Käthe Kollwitz Museum Köln.
COLOGNE.- After nearly three years of extensive renovation, the Käthe Kollwitz Museum Köln reopens its doors today, October 11, 2025, marking both the 80th anniversary of the artist's death and the museum's 40th birthday. The occasion signals a vibrant new era for the institution, which has not only received a technical upgrade but also a clear new identity, rebranding its location as the “Kollwitz Forum.” The inaugural exhibition, “Seeing Kollwitz Anew,” promises to challenge familiar views of the German Expressionist. Featuring drawings, prints, and sculptures from the museum's renowned collection, the show has been completely rehung to spark surprising ... More
Sho Shibuya, Sunrise from a Small Window (June 10,2025).
NEW YORK, NY.- Bienvenu Steinberg & C is presenting Freedom of Speech, Sho Shibuya’s second exhibition in New York. The show presents 20 recent paintings on the Front page of the New York Times, alternating Sunrise and headline-based paintings. Since April 2020, Sho Shibuya (b.1984, Tokyo) has painted the sunrise each morning on the front page of The New York Times, transforming the incessant chaos of the world into a quiet continuity, in his words, "a way to erase the news with nature” in order to capture the present. His ongoing series titled Sunrise from a Small Window reconciles the anxiety of global headlines with the immutable fact that the sun rises every single day. Each painting becomes both a record of time and a reflection on it—capturing the fleeting ... More
Portrait of Wanapati Yunupiŋu by Dave Wickens 2024.
MELBOURNE.- Over the past five years, Yunupiŋu has become renowned for his etched metal sculptures and wall works which he makes by inscribing sacred designs and ancestral clan stories into found road signs and scrap metal freehand with a rotary drill. For his third exhibition with Tolarno, Yunupiŋu has taken his practice in a striking new direction, etching directly into stringybark. “The etched barks in this exhibition are unique,” explains Will Stubbs, long-time coordinator of Buku-Larrnggay Mulka Art Centre at Yirrkala. “Never before has a Yolŋu artist produced engraved barks like this.” While unique, they are not without precedent. “Wanapati was the first Yolŋu artist to etch into a larrakitj with a rotary drill,” says Stubbs. “An example of this was included in his first solo exhibition, Ṉilŋṉilŋ – The Spark, ...

Messums West opens an exhibition of works by John Beard TISBURY.- For nearly 60 years John Beard has walked a tightrope between representation and abstraction, resulting in a dynamic oeuvre which explores alternative approaches to landscape, portraiture and history painting. His landscapes – the subject of his 2025 exhibition at Messums West – continue the conversation begun with impressionism, where the physical world is depicted through the play of light, presented through saturated colour. The title of the exhibition: ‘Qualia’, refers to the subjective, qualitative characteristics of sensations the way things seem to us – in contrast to propositional attitudes, where the focus is on beliefs about experience rather than what it is directly like to experience something. Qualia are often referred to as the phenomenal properties of experience, and experiences that have qualia are referred to as being phenomenally conscious. This is the subject ... More
Kristy Luck's 'Ground for Assumptions' challenges memory and identity at Parrasch Heijnen LOS ANGELES, CA.- parrasch heijnen presents Ground for Assumptions, the gallery’s first solo exhibition with Los Angeles-based painter Kristy Luck (b. 1985, Woodstock, IL). Kristy Luck’s images exist within their own field of knowledge, mapping re-formed memories and locating false endings. Luck sublimates the impulse to define what one sees, creating organically surrealistic scenes and forms – blurred, shifted, and interrupted – painting traces of recognizable elements of the material world. In Ground for Assumptions, Luck purposefully uses recurring motifs in their work, such as the egg, or an ancestral bracelet clasp to construct hints or strings of imagery in conversation with each other. The artist obscures, halts, and alters these initial shapes and forms, inventing a new lineage through layers of pigment, erasure, and shifts in orientation, defining fresh symbols ... More
Bonner Kunstverein presents P. Staff: Durchdringung BONN.- Bonner Kunstverein is presenting Durchdringung, the first institutional solo exhibition in Germany by artist, filmmaker, and poet P. Staff, on view October 11, 2025–February 1, 2026. The exhibition presents newly commissioned works within a specially designed architectural intervention, alongside a public program and publication. It is conceived as a choreography of dense spatial atmospheres in which body politics are addressed through sensory overload, latently menacing interventions, and gestures of eroticism. For the past decade, Staff’s practice has explored ideas that merge the body—often marginalised, debilitated, or queered—with the architecture of disciplining institutions, somatically and psychically perverting our integration with the built environment. Across video installation, sculpture, and poetry, their work probes the constitutive and disciplinary structures ... More
Reopening of the Museum Villa Stuck MUNICH.- Following extensive work, the “Welcome back!” day has finally arrived—on October 18, 2025, the Museum Villa Stuck will reopen its doors. The building services have been upgraded, the façades and architectural sculptures shine in restored splendor, and the Historic Rooms will feature new furnishings, a new arrangement of the artwork, and new acquisitions. A newly constructed entrance will make it possible to access the museum barrier-free via the extended Artists' Garden. In order to continue to meet international standards for the protection of works of art, the air conditioning and alarm systems have been renewed and the fire protection equipment has been brought up to the latest technical standards. Further work, such as the restoration of the garden sculptures, the complete replanting of the artist's garden, the redesign of the museum foyer and the opening ... More
Allison Gildersleeve explores memory, place, and time in exhibition at the Lyman Allyn NEW LONDON, CONN.- The Lyman Allyn Art Museum announced the upcoming exhibition Allison Gildersleeve: Here Somewhere, on view October 11, 2025 through January 18, 2026. In Gildersleeve’s richly layered paintings, time is not sequential, and location is not fixed. She deconstructs and reassembles the familiar, guided by the shifting nature of memory. Her compositions blend the monumental with the mundane, transforming landscapes and interiors into intricate visual mazes that defy fixed perspective and chronology. Gildersleeve keeps a sketchbook of ink drawings where she reduces her surroundings into a simple iconography. This visual "alphabet" becomes the foundation for her paintings, where each object serves as a stand-in for a time, place, or memory. When these symbols converge on the canvas, they compress disparate experiences ... More
Kendra Jayne Patrick presents Ada Friedman's second solo exhibition with the gallery BERN.- Star is the name of the artist’s cat. Cats are no joke. They are theatrical. They take us out of ourselves, and put us back in our place. They have nine lives, a keen sense of infinity, and move at seven times our speed, from where we are sitting. Their self-care rituals are a thing to behold. Ada Friedman’s paintings thrill us. Confronted with their plain unqualified existence, we are faced with an artist’s heroic yet humble project: Let Abstraction face Nature. Hone in on the “zero” of painting, knowing it will remain undiscovered, a Grenzbegriff. Ada Friedman’s paintings are calendars from out of time. Meticulous records of the freedom to create, move and be still. They often take years to complete (in this show, the three principal works are each 3-4 years in the making). No process is central, but Ostranenje and defamilarisation function as a means of connection, of renewing ... More
Two-year installation by Rome Prize Fellow Sheila Pepe opens at The Tang Teaching Museum SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY.- The Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore College presents Sheila Pepe: When & Where We Rest, a new immersive installation by Brooklyn-based artist Sheila Pepe on view now in the Mezzanine Gallery. On view through September 12, 2027, the exhibition transforms the mezzanine into a communal space for contemplation, gathering, and conversation. Pepe, a Brooklyn-based artist known for expansive, hand-crafted environments, asks what rest looks and feels like—personally, socially, politically—and who has access to it. Pepe’s installation draws on diverse traditions including religion, sociology, queer theory, the material culture of ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome, and the Silk Road. When & Where We Rest includes a site-specific crochet installation that moves between the mezzanine and the Museum’s entry vestibule, ... More
MUSEION presents a retrospective dedicated to the work of celebrated French artist Nicola L. BOLZANO.- Museion—Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Bolzano/Bozen presents a retrospective dedicated to the work of celebrated French artist Nicola L. (b. 1932, Morocco; d. 2018, US). Encompassing sculpture, performance, painting, drawing, collage, and film—all imbued with subversive wit—the exhibition is an unprecedented opportunity to experience the full breadth of her multidisciplinary oeuvre. Nicola L.—I Am The Last Woman Object is the artist’s first museum exhibition in Italy and the most expansive presentation of her work to date. From the 1960s onwards, Nicola L. explored softness as a form of resistance. Often perceived in the context of Pop Art, Nouveau Réalisme, feminism, and design, her practice bridged political activism, cosmology, spirituality, sexuality, and environmentalism. The artist dedicated a large part of her life— ... More
Montclair Art Museum presents Yanni Fotiadis: Architect as Artist MONTCLAIR, NJ.- The Montclair Art Museum (MAM) presents Yanni Fotiadis: Architect as Artist, on view October 10–November 30, 2025. Architects are often secret artists, and that is certainly true of John “Yanni” Fotiadis. After earning a master’s degree in architecture from Columbia University, Fotiadis spent thirty years designing buildings. During the pandemic, he returned to his first love of drawing and painting and also discovered a new passion for digital art. Yanni Fotiadis: Architect as Artist reflects his lifelong connection to the landscapes, philosophical heritage, and personal memories of Greece, the country of his ancestors. The exhibition features works on canvas, paper, and digital renderings displayed alongside his many concept sketches. Fotiadis describes sketching as “a way of seeing.” These works, as captivating as the finished pieces, reveal how an architect’s ... More
