NEW YORK, NY.- Gagosian, in partnership with Castelli Gallery, opened an exhibition of historic works by Jasper Johns at the 980 Madison Avenue gallery from January 22 to March 14, 2026. This exhibition surveys the crosshatch paintings and drawings that dominated his practice from 1973 to 1983 and have reverberated across his subsequent production. It unites works that have rarely been seen with loans from sources including distinguished American museums. Commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of this body of work’s debut at Castelli Gallery in 1976, it also bookends Gagosian’s occupancy of its flagship gallery at 980 Madison Avenue, which opened in 1989 with an exhibition of the Map paintings. Johns is lending major works from his own collection to the exhibition, including paintings on long-term loan to the Art Institute of Chicago; National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC; and Philadelphia Art Museum. Other notable lenders include The Broad, Los Angeles; Museum of Modern Art, New York; an ... More

Installed in the Engadin, the work responds to light, climate, and scale without imposing itself on the landscape.

SILS MARIA.- The Luma Foundation presents STRIP TOWER (962), 2023, a large-scale outdoor sculpture by Gerhard Richter at Lake Silvaplana in Sils Maria, Engadin. On view from 27 January 2026 for an initial period of three years, the work forms part of Elevation 1049, extending the project into the Alpine landscape. Based on Richter’s Strip Paintings (from 2010), STRIP TOWER (962) translates his exploration of painting, photography, digital processes, and abstraction into three dimensions. Eight interlocking panels clad in brightly striped ceramic tiles rise over five metres, forming a cross-shaped interior that visitors can enter. Immersed in shifting fields of colour and light, they encounter a work that engages perception and materiality while entering into dialogue with the Alpine landscape of Sils Maria— ... More
 

onewith x Claire Buckley Capsule Collection.

NEW YORK, NY.- Launching January 30, onewith unveils a new capsule collection created in collaboration with Brooklyn-based painter Claire Buckley, translating her luminous, abstract artwork into wearable form. Buckley, known for her ethereal, light-driven paintings that blur the line between dreamscape and emotion, brings one of her signature works, Wonderwave, to life on the body. The result is a swim collection that feels less like apparel and more like moving canvas: prism-like pastels, fluid color, and soft psychedelia designed to interact with light, water, and movement. Printed on onewith’s signature second-skin swimwear, Buckley’s artwork retains its painterly depth while adapting to the contours of the body. The collaboration reflects a shared philosophy between artist and brand: comfort, freedom, and expression without constraint. Crafted with onewith’s patented, ... More

LOS ANGELES, CA.- The Natural History Museums of Los Angeles County (NHM) today announces the creation of the Samuel Oschin Global Center for Ice Age Research at La Brea Tar Pits, marking a major step in the multi-year transformation of the world-famous site. Made possible by a major leading philanthropic gift from the Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Oschin Family Foundation – the largest in the history of NHM – this new world-class research center advances a comprehensive reimagining of the Tar Pits’ campus that will further cement it as a global destination for scientific research, education, and public engagement. With the extraordinary generosity of the Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Oschin Family Foundation, NHM has now raised $131 million in pledges toward the $240 million goal of the Reimagining La Brea Tar Pits Campaign. More than a building, the Samuel Oschin Global Center for Ice Age Research will be a research-and program-driven entity woven ... More

FRANKFURT.- Jan Schmidt’s artistic practice focuses on processes in which material, action, time, and chance are interwoven. His works emerge from clearly defined interventions–sawing, throwing, repeating–that leave traces behind. A work appears in Schmidt’s practice as a constellation of relationships: between raw material and intervention, between movement and resistance, between planning and the material’s response. In Dust and Pieces, these considerations condense into a spatial constellation. At the center of the exhibition is a wall installation of saw drawings. Schmidt saws into a block of steel. The resulting filings fall onto a sheet of moistened handmade paper. After 48 hours in a climate chamber with high humidity, the filings bond with the paper. Each cut produces a drawing. The block moves successively from left to right across the sheets. Two hundred and forty-eight sheets bear the traces of this process as an inscription of time, force, and material behavior ...

ADELAIDE.- A series of ‘social sculptures’ by Danish artist Jeppe Hein have been installed on North Terrace, offering a place of curiosity, participation and play for commuters and visitors to the City of Adelaide alike. Presented in partnership between the Art Gallery of South Australia and City of Adelaide, Jeppe Hein: Modified Social Sculptures brings three of Hein’s much-loved outdoor sculptures to Adelaide to be enjoyed all year-round. Following installations in cities around the world including Auckland, Singapore, Indianapolis, Paris, Liverpool and Helsinki, this installation takes the forms of the ubiquitous park bench and streetlight to encourage interaction and connection between passers-by. The project reflects a shared commitment by the City of Adelaide and the Art Gallery of South Australia to strengthening art and culture in the city, creating space for cultural expression and broad public access through partnership. ...

410 million year old fossil which defies classification enters collection of National Museums Scotland   Jo-Lene Ong announced as new curator of Buro Stedelijk   Material from Concorde's first flight donated to the National Museum of Flight

EDINBURGH.- A 410 million year-old fossil from Aberdeenshire in Scotland which scientists have identified as being a ‘new’ form of life, distinct from plants or fungi, has been added to the collections of National Museums Scotland. The genus ‘Prototaxites’ had previously been thought to be an early type of fungus. However, in a new paper published in Science Advances, researchers from the University of Edinburgh and National Museums Scotland have shown that this fossil is from an evolutionary path of large complex life which is neither fungus nor plant, and which died out around 360 million years ago. The fossil comes from the Rhynie chert, a uniquely preserved prehistoric terrestrial ecosystem named for the nearby village of Rhynie. Prototaxites was the largest organism on land 410 million years ago. Growing as high as eight metres, it towered ... More

EDINBURGH.- A personal archive of rare material from Concorde’s first commercial flight has been donated to the National Museum of Flight in East Lothian. The acquisition of dozens of items including tickets, menus and photographs, comes on the 50th anniversary of this inaugural journey. Commercial Concorde flights began on 21 January 1976. An Air France aircraft flew from Paris to Rio while British Airways G-BOAA flew from London to Bahrain with passengers aboard including international journalists and members of the British royal family. Concorde G-BOAA is now a star attraction at the National Museum of Flight. One of the passengers on board the maiden flight was Tony Hopkins, who saved dozens of mementos from the historic journey. His personal archive includes tickets, luggage tags, promotional material, photographs, ... More


Western Art Masterpiece Collection totals $84,122,305   Urban chronicles: Galleria Continua explores the city as a living archive   Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts announces new President & CEO


The auctioneer, Adrien Meyer taking bids for Frederic Remington's masterpiece, Coming to the Call, which achieved $13,285,000, breaking the world record for a Remington that had been set 14 minutes prior in the same sale.

NEW YORK, NY.- It was an unprecedented trove of masterpieces and it shattered records. Seven lots into the sale was enough to break the world record for a work by Frederic Remington. Nine lots into the sale was enough to break the world record for a single-owner sale of Western Art. Eleven lots into the sale and the record for a Remington that had just been set 14 minutes before, was broken once again. The sale broke five artist records, and when the bidding ended, Visions of the West: The William I. Koch Collection totaled $84,122,305 – more than three times the prior record for a single-owner Western Art auction. The sale was 165 percent sold hammer and buyer's premium above low estimate and 95 percent sold by lot. The top lots of the sale were a trio of masterworks by Frederic Remington: the painting, Coming to the Call, which set the world record at $13,285,000; the ... More

PARIS.- Galleria Continua / Paris Matignon is presenting Fragments de ville (Fragments of the city), a group exhibition bringing together major artists whose practices each, in their own way, examine the city as a space of memory, social transformation, and individual projection. The exhibition explores the intimate relationship these artists maintain with urbanity, in which the city appears both as a reflection of social mutations and conflicts, and as an object of silent contemplation. Far from offering a unified vision, Fragments de ville proposes a plural reading of the city as a dynamic place, shaped by movement and change. The creative environments specific to each artist shape this collective reflection. Cuba, with its unique political and architectural history, deeply influences the works of Alejandro Campins and Osvaldo González. Ukraine, marked by Russian imperialist aggression and the devastation of war, lies at the heart of Zhanna Kadyrova’s inquiries. Moataz Nasr, originally ... More

Opposite Knots: Henna Vainio's ceramic sculptures deconstruct the deception of language
SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Casemore Gallery is presenting Opposite Knots, Henna Vainio’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. The exhibition brings together new ceramic word stacks, woven forms, and sculptural wall constructions that transform language into fragile, interdependent structures. These forms fold, trap, and contradict themselves much as words and specific phrases do in everyday life. Vainio’s recent work centers on language as a physical and political material. Words such as win, no, anti-age, and tender change are stacked, repeated, and woven into dense sculptural knots in which meaning becomes unstable. As letters accumulate, they begin to slip away from their original messages, becoming objects in their own right. In these works, language no longer moves forward in a straight line but loops back on itself, creating systems where opposites ... More

Historic Africa Hall in Addis Ababa awarded 2026 World Monuments Fund/Knoll Modernism Prize
NEW YORK, NY.- World Monuments Fund and Knoll announced today that the Australia-based architecture firm Architectus has won the 2026 World Monuments Fund / Knoll Modernism Prize for its dynamic conservation of the United Nations’ Historic Africa Hall in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The acclaimed restoration reestablishes one of the most significant works of African modernism as a critical venue for diplomacy and culture. The award will be formally presented during a special program at Modernism Week in Palm Springs, California, on February 18, 2026. “Modern architecture captures some of the most ambitious ideas of the twentieth century, but its innovations also render these buildings vulnerable to the passage of time,” said Bénédicte de Montlaur, President and CEO of World Monuments Fund. “Our Modernism Program and the World Monuments Fund/Knoll Modernism ...

Marinella Senatore brings participatory solo exhibition to Cavalese
CAVALESE.- Museo d’Arte Contemporanea di Cavalese presents There is so much we can learn from the sun, a solo exhibition by Marinella Senatore, the most internationally recognized contemporary Italian artist today, capable of engaging and moving the energy of thousands of people without ever losing that poetic dimension in which it is possible to find oneself as a narrator. The exhibition project, curated by Elsa Barbieri, blurs the boundary between art and life. "This also happened in Cavalese, where Marinella Senatore met a group of residents, children, adults, and seniors in October, cultivating, all together, participation, which is both the process and the result of change. The two workshops, spent comparing and sharing thoughts, ideas, suggestions, mottos, and inspirations on the sense of community, emphasized the extraordinary power of art to emancipate ... More

Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein presents its 2026 exhibition programme
VADUZ.- Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein announced its 2026 exhibition programme. The 2026 programme is devoted to fundamental questions facing society. In times of immense and disconcerting change, this seems of particular relevance. At the same time, the programme is infused with a subtle, mostly self-reflective humour that makes complex topics more accessible and opens up new forms of narration. The participating artists operate with a keen sense for the ruptures of our time: experiences that mark people’s lives in contradictory, polarised or even repressive systems. Unlocking new worlds of imagination and challenging established views, they keep close to the reality of life. —Christiane Meyer-Stoll, Director Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein Marie-Antoinette Chiarenza (b. 1957 in Tunis, Tunisia) and Daniel Hauser (b. 1959 in Bern, Switzerland) began collaborating in 1983 ...

Shen Han captures the permeability of Mallorca in new exhibition at Kewenig
PALMA DE MALLORCA .- The title of this exhibition unfolds from a month of presence in Mallorca. During July, Shen Han inhabited the island at its most saturated—when heat thickens the air, bodies multiply, and the coastline is no longer a line but a continuous crossing. This is the season when the place opens completely: days stretch, borders soften, and the sea becomes a passage rather than a threshold. The land is no longer held apart by water; it is touched, entered, consumed. What was once peripheral becomes central, exposed, almost weightless under the pressure of attention. The works gathered here are shaped by walking, waiting, and listening. His paintings are created through an intuitive and physical process. Each painting emerges from movement rather than premeditation, creating compositions that feel both deliberate and fleeting. ... More

NYU's Grey Art Museum presents first U.S. survey of Australia's most iconic Aboriginal art movement
NEW YORK, NY.- NYU’s Grey Art Museum hosts the landmark traveling exhibition Irriṯitja Kuwarri Tjungu: Contemporary Aboriginal Painting from the Australian Desert, the first U.S. survey of Australia’s most globally recognized Aboriginal art movement. For the past five decades, Papunya Tula Artists—the oldest Aboriginal-owned arts organization in Australia—has stood at the forefront of contemporary Aboriginal art, producing some of the most iconic art and artists in the nation’s history. Inspired by the sweeping ancestral landscape of the Australian desert, the exhibition celebrates one of the world’s greatest stories of resilience, self-determination, and the power of art. On view from January 22 through April 11, 2026, at 18 Cooper Square, the exhibition features over 80 artists and some 120 works produced since 1971, including masterworks by leading artists ... More

Paul Anthony Smith makes London solo debut at Timothy Taylor
LONDON.- Timothy Taylor opened Lands Abroad, the gallery’s debut solo exhibition of work by Paul Anthony Smith in London. Centring on two bodies of work, the ongoing Dreams Deferred and the new Jamaica Paintings, the exhibition presents recent paintings alongside a group of works on paper, marking the artist’s first engagement with the medium. Together, these works examine postcolonial cultural identity, diaspora, and landscape. In his work, Smith examines the landscape through the lens of intersecting, and often competing, cultural narratives. Drawing on his experiences of home in Jamaica, where he was born, and the United States, where he has spent much of his life, he considers how belonging, exclusion, migration, and travel shape our relationship to both built and natural environments. Inspired by the work of Jamaican British ... More

Swiss Pavilion at the Venice Biennale presents The Unfinished Business of Living Together
VENICE.- The Swiss Pavilion at the 61st International Venice Biennale presents The Unfinished Business of Living Together, an exhibition conceived by curators Gianmaria Andreetta and Luca Beeler together with artist Nina Wakeford, and developed in collaboration with artists Miriam Laura Leonardi, Lithic Alliance, and Yul Tomatala. The Unfinished Business of Living Together takes coexistence as both a social promise and a contested form. The project mobilises art to reopen the archive as a site of active dispute and engagement. The project begins with voices featured in an April 1978 episode of the Swiss public television programme Telearena, in which the so-called “problem of homosexuality' was debated publicly and controversially on live television. This broadcast marked one of the first occasions when individuals identifying as homosexual gained ... More

Strong start to London Art Fair 2026 with Paul Nash, Gillian Ayres, and Young British Artists
LONDON.- London Art Fair 2026 has opened with strong commercial results, reporting significant 5-figure sales for British female pioneers like Gillian Ayres and Bridget Riley.

Lucia Pietroiusti appointed curator of the sixth edition of the Autostrada Biennale
PRIZREN.- Autostrada Biennale in Prizren, Kosovo, announced the appointment of Lucia Pietroiusti as the curator of its sixth edition. Autostrada Biennale was founded by Leutrim Fishekqiu, Vatra Abrashi, and Barış Karamuço in 2014 in response to the need for spaces where contemporary art can bring people together to think, learn, and exchange. Imagined as a bridge between people, places, and ideas, it creates connections across different contexts and geographies through long-term engagement. The sixth edition of Autostrada Biennale will take place between July and September 2027, continuing a trajectory shaped over more than a decade of artistic and cultural practice. A list of artists and programmes as well as the concept of the exhibition, will be shared later in 2026. Lucia Pietroiusti states: “Autostrada Biennale has reshaped the cultural life of Kosovo ...

On a day like today, Spanish artist Salvador Dalí died
January 23, 1989. Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domènech, Marquess of Dalí de Púbol (11 May 1904 - 23 January 1989), known as Salvador Dalí, was a Spanish surrealist artist renowned for his technical skill, precise draftsmanship, and the striking and bizarre images in his work. Born in Figueres in Catalonia, Dalí received his formal education in fine arts in Madrid. Influenced by Impressionism and the Renaissance masters from a young age, he became increasingly attracted to Cubism and avant-garde movements. In this image: The Atomic Era, 1957 Original lithograph on stone, watercolor and collage From Selected Pages of Don Quixote of La Mancha.
