PARIS.- Gagosian opened an exhibition of three major late paintings by Francis Bacon at its rue de Castiglione gallery in Paris, on view from April 11 through May 30. These commanding works crystallize the radical economy and psychological intensity of the artist’s final period while reaffirming his enduring dialogue with the French capital—a city in which he maintained a studio and intellectual foothold between 1975 and 1987, frequenting, among other places, the storied Hôtel La Louisiane. Widely regarded as one of the most incisive painters of the twentieth century, Bacon forged a singular visual language that collapses the boundaries between modernity and tradition. His figures—simultaneously constrained and exposed within fragile geometric armatures—seem to convulse against saturated chromatic fields, rendering the human ... More
MADRID.- The Museo Nacional del Prado has unveiled a fresh look at its 18th-century collections, placing Francisco de Goya at the heart of a thoughtful and immersive reinstallation on the south side of its second floor. The highlight is a near-complete presentation of the artist’s celebrated tapestry cartoons, now brought together in rooms 85 and 90–94, offering visitors a rare chance to follow nearly two decades of Goya’s early career in a single, continuous narrative. Painted between 1775 and the mid-1790s, these works were originally designed to decorate royal residences such as El Escorial and El Pardo for the Princes of Asturias, the future Charles IV and María Luisa of Parma. Now reunited in the museum, they reveal not only Goya’s technical brilliance but also the gradual emergence of a distinctive artistic voice—one that would later redefine Spanish painting. The Prado holds 50 of the 57 cartoons he created, making this installation an exceptional opportunity to ... More

KREMS.- A new exhibition opening today at the Landesgalerie Niederösterreich is rewriting a familiar chapter of art history—this time by placing women at its center. Titled Vienna modernism. Female. Resistant, the show marks the 100th anniversary of Wiener Frauenkunst, a progressive women artists’ association founded in 1926 by the largely overlooked but remarkably influential Fanny Harlfinger-Zakucka. Running through January 10, 2027, the exhibition invites visitors to rediscover a generation of artists who helped shape modern art in Vienna but were long pushed to the margins of history. For decades, Viennese modernism has been told through the towering figures of Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele. This exhibition offers a different lens—one that reveals a vibrant, determined network of women who were working just as boldly, often under far more difficult circumstances. ... More
Henri Matisse, Large Seated Nude, 1922-29, cast 1952. Bronze with brown patina, edition of 10, 30 3/4 x 25 1/2 x 14 inches (78.1 x 64.8 x 35.6 cm) Private Collection.
NEW YORK, NY.- Acquavella Galleries is presenting Matisse: The Pursuit of Harmony, an exhibition featuring over fifty paintings, works on paper, and sculpture by Henri Matisse on loan from museums and private collections. On view in New York from April 9 through May 22, 2026, the exhibition traces Matisse’s investigation of form in two and three dimensions, from paintings and sculptures made at the start of the 20th century through the next five decades of his career. Although Acquavella has dealt in exceptional works by Matisse for over sixty years, this marks the gallery’s first exhibition devoted to the French artist since 1973. While Matisse is widely celebrated as unparalleled in his mastery of color—having revolutionized modern art with his luminous palette and lyrical color harmonies—his exploration of form was equally central to his practice. For Matisse, the relationship between color and form was essential, and throughout his career he worked to refine his approach to f ... More

LONDON.- Bartha Contemporary is presenting Morphosis, a new exhibition by British artist Lucinda Burgess, on view from April 9th to May 3rd. The exhibition brings together new works developed during a recent residency at the Albers Foundation on the Atlantic coast of Ireland. Morphosis centres on processes of material change, erosion, and preservation. Working across paper, found materials, and wood, Burgess explores how colour and surface are shaped by environmental exposure, time, and chance. Seawater, salt, humidity, and light function as active agents within the work, registering transformation rather than fixed form. A key work in the exhibition, India Red 192 – Dissolution, consists of seven vertical strips of dark brick-red paper submerged in seawater. Salt residues remain embedded in the paper fibres, leaving crystalline traces that record immersion and gradual decay. The work is framed with archival silica to ... More
Hannah Wilke, Untitled (So Help Me Hannah series), 1978, vintage black and white photograph, 13 x 8 1/2 in., image; 14 x 11 in., sheet. Performalist Self-Portrait with Donald Goddard.
BEVERLY HILLS, CA.- Marc Selwyn Fine Art presents Hannah Wilke: Drawings and Performalist Self-Portraits, its third solo exhibition of the late American artist. A pioneering figure in feminist art, Wilke explored issues of beauty, gender, and Western cultural conventions through a multidisciplinary practice that included photography, performance, video, sculpture, and drawing. Among the first artists to reclaim and challenge the traditional male gaze, Wilke transformed representations of the female body into acts of celebration and self-determination. Aligning herself with the women’s movement of the 1960s, her work merged Post-Minimalism, Abstract Expressionism, and second-wave feminism, establishing her as one of the most influential—yet historically underrecognized—artists of the late twentieth century. Drawing was central to Wilke’s practice from its earliest stages. Beginning in the late 1950s and early 1960s, her works ... More
SYDNEY.- Once the darling of the art world, at the height of the NFT boom in 2021, these digital assets traded at a combined volume of over $25 billion. But today, 95% of all NFT collections have a market cap of zero. Rather than let this ‘art’ go to waste, the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA Australia) is offering to trade them for entry over the final weeks of its landmark exhibition Data Dreams: Art & AI. “NFTs were a unique moment in the artworld – demonstrating how fast art, culture and digital technology moves,” said MCA Australia Director Suzanne Cotter. “While they may have have lost their financial value, it doesn’t mean they’re worthless. Data Dreams: Art and AI is an exhibition about exactly that tension - about what digital technologies promise us, and what they deliver. Accepting NFTs isn’t a gimmick – it’s a chance for art lovers to turn something that’s lost it’s value into something priceless – acces ... More
Mutlu Aksu, I Picked Roses from the Rose Garden, 2026. 45 x 34 x 25 cm.
ISTANBUL.- Galeri 77 hosts the first solo exhibition of young artist Mutlu Aksu, from April 9th to May 23rd. Mutlu Aksu’s exhibition Reality Show questions how everyday life is visually constructed and how our sense of reality is shaped within that construction. Through seemingly ordinary scenes, familiar objects, and socially coded figures, the artist makes visible the power relations, forms of pressure, and processes of internalization that individuals encounter in daily life. A “reality show” is defined as a format in which real people’s real lives are presented in front of the camera. But when we watch a reality show, are we truly witnessing reality itself? Once the cameras are set, the lights adjusted, and the footage edited, can what appears on the screen still be considered real? When we reach for our phones each morning, reviewing, framing, and editing images before sharing them, to what ... More

MANILA.- What is it that transforms space into place— into something occupied, a charted land? What turns nowhere into somewhere, into a home dwelled in, into a landmark worth remembering? If a place gathers, what or who is it that gathers to culminate it? And is a place simply what people make of it? If communities, as Benedict Anderson had eminently written, are imagined, then could place-making be the work of imagination as well? Arjun Appadurai writes of imagination as a key aspect of social life that works to shape spatial realities and sensibilities, the potency of which even impels and compels collective movements, dissent, and transnational migration, as well as other ways of seeing, dwelling, and place-making. He imagines the world as a world of flows— referring to the movement of things, ideas, and people across the globe— and terms these flows as ‘scapes,’ interestingly ... More
Vian Sora, Dual Realms, 2024-25, Oil, acrylic and pigments on canvas, 91 x 150 in (231.1 x 381 cm).
HOUSTON, TX.- Vian Sora (b. 1976, Baghdad, based in Louisville, Kentucky) creates dazzling, layered abstractions that channel the turbulence of life, ancient Mesopotamian history, and Iraq's diverse natural landscapes — including its deserts, rivers, and archeological sites. Outerworlds — her first solo museum exhibition in the United States — surveys a decade of her most vibrant work, charting her transformation into one of today's most distinctive voices in painting. The exhibition will open with a reception on April 15 from 6–8 p.m., and remain on view through August 2, 2026. This survey show has traveled to Asia Society Texas from stops at Santa Barbara Museum of Art in California and the Speed Museum of Art in Kentucky. Sora's practice emerges directly from lived experience. Having grown up amid the Iran-Iraq War, the Gulf War, and the U.S. invasion of Iraq, she witnessed the devastation of her homeland firsthand. She later left Baghdad, sought refugee status ... More

Vardaxoglou presents a definitive survey of Thérèse Oulton's 1980s paintings LONDON.- Vardaxoglou is presenting ‘Holding Patterns’, a solo exhibition of paintings from 1982 to 1989 by Thérèse Oulton, the first woman to be nominated for the Turner Prize. It is the artist’s second solo exhibition with the gallery. In 2024 Vardaxoglou presented Oulton’s first solo exhibition in over 10 years. The exhibition brings together a group of important paintings from the 1980s, offering a sustained account of Oulton’s engagement with material, process, and the means of pictorial formation, whilst emphasising her significant contribution to painting in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Emerging in the early 1980s, Oulton has consistently interrogated the conditions of painting while maintaining a commitment to its possibilities, and this exhibition provides an opportunity to reassess Oulton's position within recent art history. The repeated association ... More
Fran Siegel unveils botanical cartographies at Wilding Cran Gallery LOS ANGELES, CA.- Wilding Cran Gallery is presenting Arrábida, a new series of works by Fran Siegel exploring the intersections of memory and place embedded within the botanical visual language of Portuguese azulejo tiles. Developed during a Fulbright fellowship based in and around Lisbon, Ovar, and Arrábida Natural Park, Siegel’s research examines the botanical motifs of azulejos, the painted ceramic tiles that have shaped Portuguese architectural surfaces since the 16th century. Focusing on the botanical iconography of these painted ceramic tiles, the project examines how stylized vegetal forms both reflect and abstract local flora, while carrying histories shaped by trade, religion, and cycles of destruction and renewal. Shaped by principles of ornamentation and geometry, these tiles serve as vessels of cultural transmission and identity formation, ... More
Mary Weatherford: Persephone - A radiant solo debut at Gagosian Hong Kong HONG KONG.- Gagosian is presenting Persephone, Mary Weatherford’s first solo exhibition in Asia, on view at the gallery in Hong Kong. In the new paintings on view, Weatherford explores light and color, and pursues her interest in found materials, collage, and neon through a mythological theme that resonates with the changing seasons. Persephone features luminous paintings in vinyl emulsion paint on linen. Some are augmented by colored neon tubes, seashells, or coral. In Greek mythology, Persephone is stolen from earth to become queen of the underworld; upon her return she presides over springtime renewal. As in the Chinese myth of Nian, a hibernating beast that emerges at year’s end, her story explains the cycle of seasons: when Persephone is abducted by Hades, her mother Demeter’s grief causes all plant life to cease. An eventual compromise requires ... More
Kohei Nawa interweaves PixCell and Prism series in new LA exhibition LOS ANGELES, CA.- Pace presents an exhibition by Kohei Nawa at its Los Angeles gallery from April 11 to June 6. Marking the Japanese multidisciplinary artist’s first solo show in Los Angeles, this presentation brings together 20 new works from two of his iconic sculptural series—PixCell and Prism—creating a cohesive environment in which his sculptures engage directly with the architecture of the gallery’s main exhibition space. Drawing out the unique properties of various traditional and unconventional materials in his paintings, sculptures, and installations, Nawa explores nuanced relationships between physical and virtual spaces, synthetic and natural forces, and the individual and the collective. Intrinsic to his practice is a rigorous engagement with technologies that traverse eras and cultures, particularly information technologies. Visual distortions and transformations ... More
Beyond the booth: MEGA Art Fair redefines the exhibition format in Milan MILAN.- From 15 to 25 April 2026, Milan will host the third edition of MEGA Art Fair at SPAZIO PROFUMO, the former Esperis perfume factory at Via Binda 29, in the Navigli district.

Urs Fischer's psychological hall of mirrors debuts in Tokyo TOKYO.- Urs Fischer employs humor and the improbable to encourage serious philosophical discussions about painting and sculpture, wrapped in disarming clothing. The artist’s first exhibition at Fergus McCaffrey Tokyo is titled after the game Spot the Difference and in it timeless existential themes are cast in wax to be melted, while playful ideas are poured in bronze and made permanent. A provocative and jovial spirit has animated Fischer’s work for three decades in investigating the dualities of high culture and kitsch, the timeless and the temporary, the mind and body, and truth and deception. His practice has confounded expectations, transcended existing classifications of contemporary art, and has attracted a large and devoted following amongst both expert and novice viewers. The architecture of Fergus McCaffrey’s Tokyo gallery is central to the conception ... More

Spanning installation, video, and generative AI, the show explores how rage bait is the logical endpoint of platforms optimised for user engagement. Eva & Franco Mattes have spent over twenty years tracking the lacunae of networked life and have been influential on two successive generations of artists ... More

On a day like today, French artist Robert Delaunay was born
April 12, 1885. Robert Delaunay (12 April 1885 - 25 October 1941) was a French artist of the School of Paris movement; who, with his wife Sonia Delaunay and others, co-founded the Orphism art movement, noted for its use of strong colours and geometric shapes. His later works were more abstract. His key influence related to the bold use of colour and a clear love of experimentation with both depth and tone. Robert Delaunay, Air, Iron and Water. Study for a mural, 1936 - 1937. Gouache on paper and wood, 47 x 74.5 cm. Albertina, Wien. Batliner Collection.
