CLEARWATER, FLA.- On June 27, 2026, Blackwell Auctions will offer two Jean-Michel Basquiat paintings, both of which were exhibited in 2002 at Ikon Ltd. in Los Angeles. Basquiat incorporated two familiar symbols that recur in his work into this compact but vibrant painting: the tuxedo-clad penguin with a top hat and the figure with one arm raised, riddled with arrows. It has been suggested that Basquiat might have expanded this work into his mural-sized “The dingoes that park their brains with their gum,” as it bears some thematic similarities to “Chop Suey.” The painting is signed boldly on verso. ...

WASHINGTON, DC.- The American University Museum at the Katzen Arts Center presents Ghost in the Machine, a new exhibition by Washington, DC artist Timothy Makepeace, on view June 13 through August 9, 2026. Curated by Michael O’Sullivan and Thomas Drymon, the exhibition is the culmination of nine years of sustained artistic inquiry into the James Webb Space Telescope — the most powerful infrared space observatory ever built. In 2017, Makepeace was given rare access, along with a small group of artists selected nationwide, to make art about the telescope while it was still under construction at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. Those encounters set in motion artistic inquiry and exploration that has occupied him ever since. “What started as an opportunity to be inspired by extraordinary engineering became something else entirely,” says Makepeace. “Nine years of focused work asking what it means to build a machine designed to see the ...

It addresses the spaces where it was practiced and their distinct characteristics in Tollan Xicocotitlan, home to the second-largest court in Mesoamerica.
TULA.- The sacred movement of the Mesoamerican ballgame is at the heart of a new exhibition at the Jorge R. Acosta Site Museum in the Tula Archaeological Zone, where visitors are invited to explore one of the most powerful rituals of the ancient world. Titled The Ballgame in Tula: The Echo of Divine Movement, the exhibition examines the cosmogonic, political and ceremonial meanings of the ballgame, known in Nahuatl as ullamaliztli, and focuses on the importance of the architectural spaces where it was played in ancient Tollan Xicocotitlan. At its height, between 900 and 1150 CE, the city was one of Mesoamerica’s great urban centers, with an estimated population of 120,000 people. Organized by Mexico’s Ministry of Culture through the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH), the exhibition presents recent research on the subject and forms part ... More
WILLIAMSTOWN, MASS.- The Clark Art Institute presents the first solo museum exhibition in the United States of artist Giorgio Griffa (born in 1936 in Turin, Italy, where he lives and works). Giorgio Griffa: Paths in the Forest is on view June 13 through October 12, 2026 in the galleries of the Lunder Center at Stone Hill. “It is a great honor to present Giorgio Griffa’s first solo museum exhibition in the United States, coinciding with the energetic artist’s ninetieth birthday. The Clark provides an especially fitting setting, where Griffa’s deep historical references and engagement with the natural world resonate with both our collections and the surrounding landscape,” said Olivier Meslay, Hardymon Director of the Clark. “Giorgio Griffa considers himself a classical painter yet his work and his thinking—especially in its ecological dimensions—is bracingly contemporary,” said exhibition curator Robert Wiesenberger, John and Barbara Vogelstein Senior Curator of ...

Yvonne Brudo, Pneus Gallus (Gallus Tires), c 1900. Color lithograph on paper. Collection of Discount Tire.
PHOENIX, AZ.- Phoenix Art Museum is presenting Modern Treads: The Discount Tire Poster Collection, an exhibition that explores the visual culture of the automobile through 15 oversized posters celebrating industrial innovation, advertising, and the promise of modern mobility. Now on view through January 3, 2027, the exhibition features works dating from 1900 to 1930, a period when companies such as Michelin, Dunlop, Continental, Pirelli, and Goodyear turned to bold poster design to promote the automobile not only as a form of transportation, but as a symbol of freedom, aspiration, speed, and modern life. The exhibition also includes automotive fashions from the PhxArt Fashion Collection, offering visitors a broader look at how the rise of the automobile shaped daily life, style, and self-presentation at the turn of the 20th century. “Throughout history, artistic expression, design, and industrial innovation have evolved side by side,” said Jeremy Mikolajczak, the Museum’s Sybil Harrin ...

Neal Slavin, Staff of Statue of Liberty, 1973.
DENTON, TX.- Photography is the best medium for such an exhibition that illustrates our country’s culture and landscape in this 250th year of our country’s Declaration of Independence. PDNB Gallery explores this visual expression of America selecting special works by artists in their stable and its archives. Each work of art captures America in a visceral way made possible with the magic of photography, invented in 1826. The following are highlights from the exhibition. Selections from Edward Curtis’s 32-year, early 20th Century document of The North American Indian are the earliest photographs featured. This daunting enterprise, which resulted in volumes of books and photogravures, was funded by JP Morgan in 1906. Early in the century, photography became more sophisticated and Alfred Steiglitz was responsible for bringing the medium into the art world. He was successful in becoming the influencer of the era in his production of the luscious publication, Camera Work, that featured gi ... More
Max Beckmann, Self-Portrait on Green with Green Shirt, 1938. Oil on canvas, 33 1/4 x 26 1/8 x 2 1/8 in (framed) Courtesy Private Collection, Germany. Photo: Gina Folly.
BASEL.- Widely regarded as one of the most important painters of the 20th Century, German artist Max Beckmann created a singular position in the history of art through a figurative language of extraordinary psychological depth which still resonates with audiences today. Ahead of Art Basel 2026, a dedicated exhibition on Beckmann opened at Hauser & Wirth’s Basel gallery this June, curated in close collaboration with the artist’s granddaughter, Mayen Beckmann. Shaped by a life lived between two World Wars, Beckmann is best known for work that bears witness to the moral fractures of the inter-war period, who resisted categorization within expressionism and new objectivity. Bringing together self-portraits, landscapes and portraits spanning the entirety of his career, some of which have been rarely exhibited before, the exhibition unveils a more intimate dimension of Beckmann’s practice, albeit one that remains underlined with the ...

Georges Rousse, Sungkok, 2025. Archival Pigment Print, 60 x 45 in. Ed. of 10.
NEW YORK, NY.- Sous les Étoiles Gallery is presenting Quiet Spaces an exhibition of the most recent photographs by Georges Rousse on view from June 13 to August 14, 2026. Quiet Spaces brings together a selection of photographs by Georges Rousse that transform abandoned architecture into sites of illusion, balance, and contemplation. Known for his monumental interventions within forgotten or transitional spaces, Rousse constructs ephemeral geometries directly onto walls, floors, and ceilings before capturing them through the precise frame of photography. The resulting images exist at the intersection of sculpture, painting, architecture, and photographic vision. The exhibition’s title, Quiet Spaces, reflects the meditative quality that emerges from these transformed environments. Rousse’s photographs invite viewers into suspended worlds where silence becomes visible. Far from emptiness, these spaces hold memory, tension, and poetic resonance. Geometry appears to hover within decay; vibrant ... More
Magdiel García Almanza, Girl with Fish XXIV, 2022. Inscribed and dated by artist: “MAGDIEL 22”. Acana wood and acrylic paint, 14 7/8 x 8 5/8 x 6 3/16 inches (37.8 x 21.8 x 15.7 cm).
NEW YORK, NY.- Sean Kelly is presenting Acana, Magdiel García Almanza’s inaugural exhibition with the gallery and his first solo exhibition in New York. García Almanza constructs geometric sculptures that oscillate between abstraction and figuration, drawing on modernist traditions and the visual language of Cubism. The exhibition brings together a selection of recent works from six ongoing series, underscoring García Almanza’s distinct approach to the body, form and material. Born and living in Camagüey, Cuba, García Almanza belongs to the generation of artists shaped by the country’s post-Soviet “Special Period,” an era marked by economic instability and material scarcity that demanded ingenuity and adaptability, which informed the artist’s practice. Working primarily with salvaged acana wood reclaimed from centuries-old colonial homes, García Almanza transforms the architectural beams into interlocking ... More

ZURICH.- Galerie Urs Meile is presenting Xie Nanxing: Fugitive Figuration. Paintings 1994–2026, a solo exhibition curated by Clémentine Deliss at the gallery’s Zurich Ankerstrasse space. The exhibition opened on Friday, June 12, and remains on view through August 29, 2026. Bringing together nine paintings from six different series, the exhibition traces more than three decades of Xie Nanxing’s practice, from his defining works of the 1990s to paintings completed in 2026. Shown together for the first time, the works offer both an introduction to and a reassessment of the artist’s singular position within contemporary Chinese and international painting. At the heart of the exhibition is the idea of figuration as something unstable, elusive and psychologically charged. Xie’s paintings do not simply depict visible reality. Instead, they open up scenes that seem suspended between memory, performance, dream and unease. His figures often appear only partially, sometimes hidden ... More

Hope Meets Action: Echoes Through the Black Continuum opens at the Museum of Vancouver VANCOUVER, BC.- Created by the BC Black History Awareness Society (BCBHAS) in partnership with the Royal BC Museum (RBCM), Hope Meets Action: Echoes Through the Black Continuum highlights the contributions of BC’s Black leaders across the centuries—and it will be on display at the Museum of Vancouver from June 14 through September 13, 2026.

Janaina Tschäpe's "Conversations with the sea" opens at Hastings Contemporary HASTINGS.- Hastings Contemporary is presenting Janaina Tschäpe: Conversations with the sea, the first major solo exhibition in a UK gallery by the leading German-Brazilian artist. The exhibition opened on June 13 and remains on view through September 13, 2026. Filling Hastings Contemporary’s largest gallery space, the exhibition features a dramatic new series of paintings and works on paper created by Tschäpe in direct response to the English coast. The works were inspired by the artist’s visit to Hastings during a wet and stormy winter in 2025, when the force and atmosphere of the sea became the starting point for a new body of work. The exhibition also includes a film piece. For Tschäpe, the sea is not simply a subject to be represented. It is a living force — restless, rhythmic and impossible to fix. Her paintings approach water as movement: something that folds, ... More

Radical Hope explores art, labour and the enduring power of worker resistance GELSENKIRCHEN.- The international group exhibition Radikale Hoffnung (Radical Hope) explores the connections between art and worker resistance from early Modernism to the present day. It demonstrates how artists from different regions and eras have addressed such issues—whether from a documentary, poetic, critical, radical or solidarity-based perspective, as well as in reference to their own personal experience. At the beginning of the 20th century, artists began to focus on worker resistance against social injustices. In the 1960s, some went a step further and took part in strikes themselves, spurred on by the democratic upheavals of the postwar era. Even today, the right to strike shapes public life, and striking images of industrial gridlock are to be found in the oeuvres of several artists. Equally, the global division of labour and the fragmentation of work under platform ... More
Exhibition reimagines landscape through painting, photography and sculptural relief SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Jack Fischer Gallery, in nomadic style, is presenting neoscape, a two-person exhibition pairing painter Kirstine Reiner Hansen with Michael Koehle, who builds sculptural reliefs from laser cut paper. Please join us at the Nelson Duni Gallery for the opening on June 20th. The exhibition takes landscape, one of the oldest subjects in the history of both painting and photography, and asks,What does it look like now, when images are made and reconstructed in ways that would have been unimaginable to the artists who first wrestled the natural world onto canvas or plate? Landscape painting tradition carries centuries of artists’ efforts at observing light and atmosphere; from the scrolls in Chinese landscape paintings to the Impressionists, who are well-known for fragmenting their vision into snatches of color and shapes. In this exhibition, ... More
Rita Fischer returns to Xippas Paris with new solo exhibition PARIS.- For the second time, Rita Fischer presents her works at Xippas Paris, with a variety of supports and materials: egg tempera on canvas or wooden panels, as well as watercolor on paper. This exhibition features a new series of vertically formatted works. Although the artist continues to create horizontal pieces, in recent years she has been experimenting with this new format, which further intensifies the visual ambiguity conveyed by her paintings and their possible relationship to the tradition of landscape painting. In the academic tradition, largely shaped by the work of Nicolas Poussin, the landscape genre is fundamentally associated with horizontality. However, several emblematic vertical-format examples exist, among them the remarkable series of three paintings produced in 1818 by Théodore Géricault: “Paysage au tombeau, le midi“, “Paysage héroïque ...

Home is Football: Belonging in Australian Soccer explores the ways in which the much-loved universal sport is a source of community for Australians from a broad range of groups and identities. Here, visitors will find inspirational stories that mean so much more than who wins and who loses. Reflecting on its themes, Museums Victoria CEO & Director, Lynley Crosswell said community was at the forefront of this exhibition. ‘These stories offer profound insights into the power of sport to create a sense of belonging and connection. ...
