Michaelangelo Merisi Da Caravaggio, Ragazzo morso da un ramarro, 1596 - 1597. Oil on canvas, cat. 1980 n.78 65,8 x 52,3 cm.
ST. PETERSBURG, FL.- The Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg is presenting In Caravaggio’s Light: Baroque Masterpieces from the Fondazione Roberto Longhi. Featuring some 40 masterpieces from one of the world’s most revered private collections of 17th-century painting, the exhibition offers a rare opportunity for American audiences to experience the revolutionary genius of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio and the international artists he inspired. At the exhibition’s heart is Caravaggio’s electrifying masterpiece, Boy Bitten by a Lizard (c. 1597), a cornerstone of the Fondazione Roberto Longhi collection. The painting freezes a fleeting moment of shock and pain, blending a lush still-life with piercing psychological insight. Its intense realism, dramatic light ( chiaroscuro ), and theatric power shattered artistic conventions. Remarkably, this is the first time in more than a decade that the Longhi version of the iconic painting is on view in the United States. Beyond ... More
HOUSTON, TX.- Gyula Kosice: Intergalactic, a large-scale tribute to the works of the Argentine experimental sculptor, painter, poet and theorist, will open at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston on October 26.

Chairman Mao Listening and Talking to the Revolutionary Public, ceramic. Jingdezhen Sculpture Porcelain Factory, n.d. 13.25 x 17.5 x 6 inches. Collection of Fiona Chalom.
POMONA, CA.- Fired in Revolution: Ceramics from the People’s Republic of China presents ceramics created during the Cultural Revolution, 1966-1976. Guest curated by Dr. Jamie Kwan, this exhibition explores Cultural Revolution ceramic production. China has a long history of ceramic production that dates to ancient times. The kilns at Jingdezhen—China’s most famous site of porcelain production—served as an imperial manufactory since the 11th century. However, this production drastically changed during the Cultural Revolution when the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) closely controlled all forms of literature, art and media. The cultural realm was turned on its head, as artists were forced to change their imagery and styles or face serious consequences. This exhibition explores Cultural Revolution ceramic production, specifically works made at Jingdezhen. Presenting ceramic figures, plaques, molds, and decorated ... More
Male Head 1st century BC - 1st century AD State Museum of the State Cultural Centre of Turkmenistan.
ROME.- History buffs and visitors in Rome have a rare treat in store. Today marks the opening of a spectacular archaeological exhibition, "Ancient Civilizations of Turkmenistan," held in the magnificent Palazzo dei Conservatori at the Capitoline Museums. Running until April 12, 2026, this is the first time an international audience will get to explore such a rich collection of treasures from a region that was a vital crossroads of the ancient world. Stepping into the ground floor halls is like time-traveling through millennia, from the Bronze Age to the Hellenistic era. The exhibition masterfully highlights two key periods: the highly sophisticated protohistoric Margiana (3rd-2nd millennium BC) and the mighty ancient Parthian Empire (2nd century BC – 1st century AD). The real draw lies in the masterpieces that have traveled out of Turkmenistan for the very first time. Visitors can gaze upon exquisite gold and semi-precious stone necklaces from Gonur-tepe, remnants of the Margiana culture ... More

Moving the figure of Erasmo da Narni. Photo: Marco Borrelli.
VENICE.- Donatello’s Monument to Gattamelata, the oldest surviving bronze equestrian statue to be cast since classical antiquity, began its much-anticipated conservation journey this month. In 2024, Save Venice committed to finance the treatment of the Renaissance masterpiece in collaboration with Friends of Florence. This intervention comes not a moment too soon as the sculpture is threatened by widespread corrosion and structural issues caused by previous movements during the first and second World Wars. Its stone base is crumbling from exposure to the elements. The monument depicts Erasmo da Narni (known as “Gattamelata”), the captain general of the Venetian army, who was buried in the Basilica di Sant’Antonio in Padua in 1458. Donatello fashioned the bronze statue between 1447 and 1453 for the square in front of the church. The first step of the conservation process involved transferring the 450-kilo (0.5 ton) figure of Gattamelata and ... More
LONDON.- The British Museum's inaugural Ball has raised more than £2.5 million, a landmark moment in the Museum's history that secures vital funding for its international partnerships.

Ralf Brueck, Connected blackwhite, 2023.
BERLIN.- The age of the fleeting digital image is under scrutiny at the Villa Heike Kunstverein, where the exhibition "Not a Moment, Not a Place" opened today, Saturday, October 25. Featuring the works of Ralf Brueck, Kathrin Ganser, and Daria Lou Nakov, the show is a fascinating pushback against the endless stream of ephemeral visuals that dominate modern life. Running until November 29, 2025, this exhibition, the Kunstverein's second, showcases artists who are redefining the very nature of photography. Their core philosophy: a photograph shouldn't just be an image; it should be an object. The works on display are not simple prints. Each piece starts with a photographic "model"—a reference image that the artist then actively dismantles. Using both analogue and digital manipulation, montage, and overlaying, the artists rip these visuals from their original contexts and rebuild them into completely new forms. This process results in images that demand tactile and physical engagement, a deli ... More
BRUSSELS.- Rewind, Replay: Vidéographie pays homage to the groundbreaking Belgian television program Vidéographie, produced and broadcast by RTBF from 1976 to 1986. Conceived as both an artistic platform and a tool for public access, Vidéographie was pioneering in its approach. While challenging conventional television formats, it opened its screens to the rapidly emerging field of video art. Across 132 episodes, the programme became a site of experimentation, showcasing works by local and inter- national artists while engaging directly with the cultural and political debates of its time. It reflected a moment when new, more accessible audiovisual technologies transformed the artistic field, creating opportunities for wider participation. In co-organization with SONUMA—Les Archives audiovisuelles and in collaboration with Space Collection in Liège, argos presents a selection of archival episodes, excerpts, thematic compilations and complete video ...

Susan Hamburger, "Banner (White Oleander, Right)," 2025. Acrylic and wax pastel on canvas, textiles, 55h x 35.50w in.
NEW YORK, NY.- Asya Geisberg Gallery opened “Near Enemies,” Susan Hamburger’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. The show pairs medieval-style banners hung on the wall, inspired by the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s armory collection, and invented helmets made of papier mâché and paper clay. The artist works within the history of Western European decorative arts with its hyper-feminine association, to re-imagine the chivalrous, performative function of these highly embellished artifacts of military glory. Her delicate sculptures, ever more baroque yet equally preposterous, are in turn utterly useless to protect or even intimidate. The overall exhibition can be read as both an admiring re-engagement with seemingly antiquated decorative traditions, and an excoriation: the ludicrousness of glamorizing the savagery of war and empire building. Hamburger has long worked with current events and history as her subject, and in this current series, ... More
Albrecht Dürer, The Four Horsemen, from The Apocalypse, c. 1497/98, published 1511, third (second Latin) edition, woodcut, The National Museum of Western Art, Tokyo.
TOKYO.- The renowned Humanist Erasmus of Rotterdam stated, “What cannot Dürer express in monochromes, that is, by black lines only?” the same year that the groundbreaking Renaissance artist active in late 15th to early 16th century Germany, Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528) died. As Erasmus noted, “black lines,” not paint colors, were the core element of Dürer’s art. Through his unprecedented use of these lines and their depictive abilities, he was an artist capable of drawing unseen subjects, as well as visible events. Dürer's deep understanding of the expressive and technical potential of prints as reproductive medium made him an unparalleled figure in art history, unstinting in his use of these techniques to distribute his own works. The countless prints produced in black ink carried his experimental artistic thoughts to people across geographic and temporal distances. This small exhibition presents all of the images from ...

Robotron. Code and Utopia opens at Galerie für Zeitgenössische Kunst Leipzig LEIPZIG.- The rapid rise of computers and microelectronics since the 1960s is often described as the “third industrial revolution”. In East Germany, the name Robotron became closely associated with this transformative technology, which reshaped every sector of the economy. Revisiting the history of this state-owned enterprise highlights not only the technical possibilities and societal hopes it carried, but also the political and economic contradictions that ultimately contributed to the collapse of East Germany. Bringing together works by more than 20 artists, the exhibition explores the transformation of the industrial landscape in East Germany. It addresses themes such as cybernetics and bureaucracy, espionage and reverse engineering, the promises of automation and labour in “real existing socialism”, cleanrooms and environmental destruction, the decline of once-significant ...

Bibliotheca Hertziana presents Chi esce entra: A Tribute Exhibition to a Disappearing Building ROME.- In the heart of Rome, a building rich with a century of cultural history but now abandoned for thirty years is about to lose the traces of its past uses. How can art contribute to remembering what is about to disappear? Through November 9, the Bibliotheca Hertziana – Max Planck Institute for Art History presents Chi esce entra: A Tribute Exhibition to a Disappearing Building, a site-specific project just a few steps away from its historic headquarters on the same street. Reopening the doors of this derelict space to the public for the first time in three decades and just before its impending demolition, the exhibition gathers over twenty Italian and international artists working across sculpture, painting, photography, installation, video, and performance in a collective tribute to the building and its singular history. Inaugurated in 1911 as a private gallery by the art dealer and collector ... More
Fall 2025 exhibition and programming schedule at the MIT List Visual Arts Center CAMBRIDGE, MASS.- The MIT List Visual Arts Center announced its fall 2025 exhibition and programming schedule. The galleries feature solo exhibitions by Goldin+Senneby, American Artist, and Every Ocean Hughes. Flare-Up brings together artist duo Goldin+Senneby’s recent works exploring illness, ecology, and the shifting metaphors through which both are understood. The exhibition references the experience of living with the autoimmune disease multiple sclerosis (MS), which is often described with militaristic language: a body “at war” with itself. Pine resin, a protective toxin critical to trees’ immune systems, is central to their recent works. Crying Pine (2025), for instance, features a loblolly pine that was bioengineered to overproduce resin as a renewable fuel, a modification that has left the tree vulnerable to its own defenses. Across the works in Flare-Up, ... More
The Baltimore Museum of Art receives $10 million promised gift for education BALTIMORE, MD.- The Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) today announced an extraordinary promised gift of more than $10 million from philanthropists Amy and Marc Meadows for the sole purpose of supporting arts education at the museum, with a focus on K-12 schoolchildren in Baltimore City and the surrounding region.

The cumulative financial impact of the endowment makes it the single largest gift to the BMA in its 110-year history. Amy and Marc Meadows have spent most of their personal and professional lives engaged with the arts and maintained strong commitments ... More
Leila Heller Gallery presents Wassef Boutros Ghali retrospective: Abstraction meets architectural rigor DUBAI.- Leila Heller Gallery is presenting a curated selection of paintings and works on paper by Wassef Boutros Ghali, titled 'A Retrospective (1965 - 2016)’. Spanning several decades, these works reveal Boutros-Ghali’s distinctive balance between architectural order and painterly intuition. In both the large-scale canvases and intimate paper compositions, intersecting planes, subtle tonal shifts, and spatial rhythms evoke a meditative language that transcends geography, rooted in modernist ideals. In both mediums, Boutros-Ghali’s compositions are dynamic; they seem to breathe, their tensions and harmonies suggesting the shifting light, landscapes, and cultural forms that informed his vision. His work resonates with a timeless universality, yet carries the imprint of a life lived between continents. Architectural forms emerge, collide and reengineer themselves without ... More
Luxembourg's CNA pays tribute to photographer Michel Medinger DUDELANGE.- In 2024, the exhibition "Michel Medinger, Lord of Things", produced by Lët'z Arles with the support of the CNA, was presented at the Rencontres d'Arles as part of the Luxembourg Photography Award. Held at the Chapelle de la Charité, the exhibition attracted a large audience: 40,000 visitors were able to discover the exhibition-installation, which brought together a selection of around fifty works and objects from the artist’s collection in the form of a monumental cabinet of curiosities. This autumn, the Arles exhibition is being reworked and presented in a new form at Pomhouse, Dudelange. Michel Medinger sadly passed away between the development of this project and the exhibition, so we are doubly keen to showcase his works and pay tribute to this great artist. An extravagant alchemist and former Olympic athlete, Michel Medinger (1941-2025) is now ... More
The Clock Wife opens at A Tale of A Tub ROTTERDAM.- Accumulating over three months, The Clock Wife is an exhibition that focuses on artist estate management by presenting four estates through the eyes of the women overseeing them: Marja Bloem presenting her partner Seth Siegelaub; Sue Cramer and Emma Nixon presenting husband and father John Nixon; Johanna Monk presenting her beloved Vanita Monk; and Juf (Bea Ortega Botas and Leto Ybarra) presenting their peer Fran Herndon. [1] At the core of the exhibition is the conflation of administrative and emotional labour inherent to this line of work. Yet an exhibition built around an acknowledgement of the invisibility of certain forms of labour—and an attempt to centre them in turn—has a paradox at heart: how do you make visible that which is not seen? While still acknowledging the artists around whom each of the estates revolve, The Clock Wife ... More
Mounira Al Solh transforms Kunsthuis SYB into a saj bakery to share stories of migration and warmth BEETSTERZWAAG.- Kunsthuis SYB introduces Nassib’s Bakery: Distributing Warmth, a project initiated by Mounira Al Solh, transforming SYB’s front room into a saj bakery this fall.

On a day like today, Swedish artist Hilma af Klint was born
October 26, 1862. Hilma af Klint (26 October 1862 - 21 October 1944) was a Swedish artist and mystic whose paintings are considered among the first major abstract works in Western art history. Her paintings, which sometimes resemble diagrams, were a visual representation of complex spiritual ideas. In this image: Hilma af Klint. Helianthus annuus (Common Sunflower).
