Andréhn-Schiptjenko now representing Sally von Rosen   Raclin Murphy Museum of Art acquires important medieval sculpture of the Virgin and Child with Saint Anne   Heritage Auctions welcomes Charles A. Shultz as Director of Trusts & Estates, Beverly Hills


Sally von Rosen. Photo: Dale Grant

STOCKHOLM.- Andréhn-Schiptjenko announced representation of Sally von Rosen. Her first solo exhibition with the gallery will take place at the Stockholm gallery in early spring, 2026. Her work is included in the upcoming group exhibitions Some Degree Of Friction at Wehrmuehle Museum (Biesenthal, Germany), opening on 19 July and Playa!, opening on 27 August at Bonniers Konsthall (Stockholm, Sweden). New works by von Rosen will also be presented at Art Basel Paris in October. Sally von Rosen’s artistic practice spans sculpture, performance, drawing and painting, with a focus on exploring political ecology and the material relationships between subjects and objects. Her sculptures often manifest as hybrid forms, balancing liveliness and morbidity, rawness and refinement, while her performances act as conceptual extensions of these sculptural pieces. A recurring element in her work is the playful yet unsettling quality of her sculptures, which challenge the viewer’s perception by suggesting ... More
 

German, Swabia/Upper Rhine, Virgin and Child with Saint Anne, ca. 1490. Limewood, 22 x 15 1/16 x 6 3/8 inches (56 x 38.5 x 16 cm) Fritz and Mildred Kaeser Liturgical Endowment 2025.015

SOUTH BEND, IN.- The Raclin Murphy Museum of Art gratefully adds an important German limewood sculpture depicting the Virgin and Child with Saint Anne, strengthening its medieval holdings and broadening its representation of European artistic production. The image of Mary and the infant Jesus joined by Mary’s mother, Anne, emphasizes genealogy and increases the elderly saint’s role in the salvation of the faithful. Such groupings of the trio appeared as early as 1290, but the cult of Saint Anne reached its peak in Germany and the Low Countries from about 1480 through the 1520s. The stories and legends about Anne featured her roles as a wife, mother, and as a source of charitable giving and service, making her an apt model for women in medieval society. "The Raclin Murphy Museum of Art is honored to celebrate this important acquisition—especially during this, our ... More

CHICAGO, IL.- The Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago announced its latest exhibition, City in a Garden: Queer Art and Activism in Chicago, open July 5, 2025–May 31, 2026. The exhibition highlights Chicago’s essential yet often overlooked role in the stories of queer art and activism, examining the city’s queer history from the 1980s to the present. The exhibition’s title is based on Chicago’s official motto, Urbs in Horto, meaning “city in a garden.” In the context of this presentation, the title speaks to the exhibited artists' and activists’ utopian visions of a metropolitan sanctuary for people of all races, genders, and sexualities. These visions remain ever urgent, as queer people continue to fight for their lives and livelihoods under ongoing and renewed political threats. The earliest works in City in a Garden date to the 1980s, when activists radically mobilized in response to the US government’s disastrous handling ... More

LONDON.- Facets offers an insight into the extraordinary work of multi-disciplinary artist Almuth Tebbenhoff, revealing her ongoing investigation into the transformative possibilities of sculptural materials. From clay and steel to marble and paper, the works on display unfold a sensitive, intelligent search for meaning and purpose in both the natural world and the broader universe. Born in 1949 in Fürstenau, a flat rural region in northwest Germany, Almuth Tebbenhoff’s experiences of vast landscapes and wide night skies fostered a deep connection with the natural world that would later influence her visual vocabulary. She recalls her father, a hobby astronomer, urging her and her sisters to witness the satellite Sputnik through his telescope, visible across the night sky. At the age of 18 she moved to England following a student’s exchange where eventually she studied ceramics at Sir John Cass School of Arts. After completing her studies in 1975, she set up her first studio in London ... More


A Conversation Piece: Michelangelo Pistoletto and Lee Ufan in Dialogue opens in Arles   The art of Bob Peak, including "Apocalypse Now,' headlines Heritage's sweeping July entertainment auction   Lark Mason to share tales of hidden masterpieces at The Preservation Society of Newport County's summer lecture series

ARLES.- Lee Ufan Arles presents this summer at the Hôtel Vernon a unique dialogue between Michelangelo Pistoletto and Lee Ufan. Born three years apart in different cultural and geographical contexts, the Italian (1933) and the Korean (1936) have left a lasting mark on the history of contemporary art. Associated with Arte Povera in the case of Pistoletto and with the Mono-Ha movement for Ufan, these artists have created works that question the object and its relationship to its architectural envelope, as well as to the viewer. Even though the paths taken by each appear, at first glance, to be distinctly different on an aesthetic level, the perspectives drawn by this encounter reveal an unexpected field of convergence. Invited to occupy the MA Space, Michelangelo Pistoletto has imagined a journey that reflects the diversity of his work. Centered around a dense selection of recent and historical works, it is also complemented by some incursions ... More
