Prado Museum reframes the origins of the Spanish Renaissance with acquisitions

MADRID.- The Museo Nacional del Prado has unveiled a thoughtful rehang of one of its Renaissance galleries, placing two recently acquired paintings at the center of a new narrative about how the Spanish Renaissance took shape. Installed in Room 49, the works by Pedro Machuca and Pedro de Campaña are now shown alongside masterpieces by Raphael and Sebastiano del Piombo, offering visitors a fresh perspective on how artistic ideas traveled—and transformed—across Europe in the early 16th century. At first glance, the pairing feels almost inevitable. Both Machuca and Campaña belonged to a generation of artists who looked toward Italy for inspiration at a moment when figures like Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael were redefining what painting could be. But what the Prado’s new display makes clear is that these artists were not simply imitators. Instead, they absorbed those innovations and reworked them into something distinctly their own. The two paintings at the heart of t ... More

Tate takes Lowry painting to Salford school   David Peter Francis opens an exhibition of works by William Scott   A major renaissance of Sámi Contemporary Art opens in Helsinki


Edward Ruscha, DAILY PLANET 2003 & PAY NOTHING UNTIL APRIL 2003.

SALFORD.- One of Tate’s iconic LS Lowry streetscapes has been brought to a school named in the artist’s honour. The painting has been on display at The Lowry Academy in Worsley this week as the centrepiece of a unique series of arts and careers workshops for schoolchildren. This is the first time Tate has lent a work from its collection to a school. Lowry’s Dwelling Ordsall Lane, Salford 1927 depicts a crowd of children on the corner of a bustling residential road, reflecting the artist’s belief that ‘a street is not a street without people’. Students at the Academy have taken part in artmaking activities inspired by the painting as well as exploring a range of careers available in museums and galleries with guidance from Tate experts. Activities have included creating their own responses to Lowry’s artwork and stepping into the shoes of a curator, art handler or marketing advisor to discover the skills needed to deliver an exhibition.

William Scott, William Scott Church Prom with Kimbery in 1981 Another Life New Mom Edna, WS 401, 2021, watercolor and ink on paper, 30 x 22 inches (76.2 x 55.9 cm), framed: 33 1/4 x 25 1/4 inches (84.5 x 64.1 cm).

NEW YORK, NY.- At times, the contextual relation of the human to urban society is a deceptively generalized one—a simple result of time and circumstance removed from how it evolved towards uncategorizable extents. As always, yet particularly in our contemporary age of a long, undeserved American peacetime which has begun to crumble, it is increasingly critical to reorient ourselves towards such built environments. No condo is a given. There is much work to be done. There are many buildings to be reimagined. As a polymath, William Scott has spent the past few decades bouncing between scales and forms. Take for example—at once as monumental as the fantastical kingdoms of old and as quaint as could be contained by the screen of an iPad—his digital renderings of the grandiose, precise structures he aptly describes as “classic, new buildings.” As viewers, we ...

HELSINKI.- Jointly presented by Kiasma and the Sámi Museum Siida, We Who Remain brings together contemporary artworks by Sámi artists and works engaging with Sámi life across Sápmi, spanning Finland, Sweden, and Norway. The exhibition opened at Kiasma on March 27, 2026, with selected works on view at Siida in Inari beginning in October. In recent years, the Arctic has drawn growing international political attention—not only for its strategic importance, but also for its abundant natural resources. As global interest in the region intensifies, the voices of its Indigenous peoples have been sidelined—echoing earlier history, when the Sámi homeland was divided by imposed nation-state borders that continue to shape the region today. The Sámi are the Indigenous people of northern Europe. Their homeland, Sápmi, long predates the emergence of Nordic nation-states and their national ideologies, spanning present-day Norway, Sweden, Finland ... More


BMA presents first exhibition dedicated to Matisse's exceptional mural The Stations of the Cross   Colonialism: Switzerland involved opens at Château de Prangins   Emmet Gowin's unseen family portraits debut at Pace


Henri Matisse, Study for the 12th Station (Jesus Dies on the Cross). 1948. Chapel of the Dominican Sisters, Vence.

BALTIMORE, MD.- On March 29, the Baltimore Museum of Art opened the first exhibition to substantively explore Henri Matisse’s powerful mural The Stations of the Cross, which he created for his only architectural project, the Chapelle du Rosaire (Chapel of the Rosary) (1947-1951), in Vence, France. Matisse designed every detail of the building, from its remarkable stained-glass windows to the altar and priest’s vestments and to three large-scale black-and-white ceramic murals inside the chapel. The Stations of the Cross depicts Christ’s journey to Calvary and stands out in Matisse’s work for its narrative and rough, aggressive lines—starkly contrasting with the fluid, colorful style for which he is best known. Matisse in Vence: The Stations of the Cross—organized under the direction of Asma Naeem, Dorothy Wagner Wallis Director of the Baltimore Museum of Art and Aymeric Jeudy, Director of the Musée Matisse ...

PRANGINS.- A major new exhibition opening today at the Château de Prangins invites visitors to reconsider Switzerland’s place in the history of colonialism—an involvement that is often underestimated or overlooked. Titled Colonialism: Switzerland involved, the exhibition runs from March 29 to October 11, 2026, and presents a wide-ranging exploration of how Swiss individuals, businesses, and institutions were connected to colonial systems across the globe. Through a carefully structured narrative, the show moves from historical realities to present-day consequences, offering a nuanced and thought-provoking experience. The exhibition unfolds in two parts, beginning with an extensive historical journey divided into nine thematic chapters. Each section is anchored by a symbolic object, grounding complex ideas in tangible forms. Visitors are first introduced to the broader context of European colonialism in a striking prologue. Here, a colonial helmet—once used by settlers to assert bot ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- Pace is presenting an exhibition of photographs by Emmet Gowin, most of which have never before been seen, at its 508 West 25th Street gallery in New York from March 12 through April 25.

It will also run concurrently with AIPAD's The Photography Show, on view in New York from April 22 to 26. The exhibition spotlights a selection from Baldwin Street: Photographs 1966–1994, a body of intimate portraits by Gowin of his wife Edith Morris and her extended family taken in Danville, Virginia. Named after the dead-end street where many of Edith’s family members—including her mother, Reva Booher Morris—lived, the series bears witness to the lives and relationships that shaped this family over time and sheds light ...

Spanning the 1920s to the present day, the exhibition charts the history and impact of one of the 20th century's most innovative fashion designers, Elsa Schiaparelli.

New objects added to "Entertainment Nation" exhibition in commemoration of the nation's 250th anniversary   Ayotunde Ojo unveils shifting domestic interiors at Tiwani Contemporary   Nicole Eisenman finds epic strangeness in the everyday at Hauser & Wirth


Through incomparable collections, rigorous research and dynamic public outreach, the National Museum of American History seeks to empower people to create a more just and compassionate future by examining, preserving and sharing the complexity of our past.

WASHINGTON, DC.- The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History will add several objects to its “Entertainment Nation”/“Nación del espectáculo” exhibition as part of the museum’s commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Among the updates is the display of the recently donated comic book “Action Comics #1” dated 1938, the landmark first issue that introduced a new era of comic book heroes. Most notably, it debuted Superman, created by the writer and artist team of Jerry Siegel and Joe Schuster. Although costumed vigilantes had previously existed in pulp entertainment, Superman’s debut as an alien with superhuman powers marked the beginning of the superhero genre, establishing tropes and themes that continue to define the category. Superman’s massive popularity led to what is now known as “The Golden Age of Comics,” an era that introduced ... More
 

Installation shot of Ayotunde Ojo, Deep Waking, 2025 Oil, acrylic and charcoal on canvas. 170.2 x 157.5 cm, 67 x 62 in.

LAGOS.- Tiwani Contemporary, Lagos is presenting Ayotunde Ojo: A Life Of Its Own which references Ojo's painting process and understanding of how each painting arrives into being. “The result is a painting that resists stillness. These works do not document a moment; they register duration. The room is not fixed. It adjusts, shifts, absorbs emotional residue. Figures appear anchored yet slightly unsettled, as though existing across more than one temporal plane. What is seen is both present and remembered.” Ojo presents his domestic interiors as living, shifting spaces, altered by light, stillness and movement, subtly capturing the temporal shifts that coexist within a shared space. The paintings feel almost cinematic; compressing a series of lived experiences within the same space at different points of time, reminding us that time is never suspended but can be read as layered, infinite, visual information. The walls shift, light contradicts itself, perspectives fracture and sometime ... More
 

Nicole Eisenman, Fallen Angels, 2025. Oil on canvas, 76.2 x 61 x 2.5 cm / 30 x 24 x 1 in. Courtesy the artist and Hauser & Wirth © Nicole EisenmanPhoto: Elisabeth Bernstein.

HONG KONG.- Nicole Eisenman’s ‘Fallen Angels,’ as the title suggests, is the artist’s most down-to-earth show in years. Comprising eleven recent paintings and three sculptures, the exhibition narrows the field of vision to three sites of middle-class living: home, work, beach. Nearly all of the paintings are easel-sized, while two of the sculptures (made with a table and a chair, respectively, from Eisenman’s studio) feel like accidental readymades, even ex situ. The contraction of scale and contemplative tone stands in contrast to Eisenman’s reputation for crowded tableaux and picaresque social scenes, but the work is no less demanding. Here, figures linger, hesitate, repeat themselves; time settles into familiar spaces. The ambition lies not in spectacle but in attention, in the difficulty of staying with what is close at hand. The first two sites—home and work—have collapsed into each other. The third offers no escape. One of these works is not like the o ... More

The Ara Pacis comes to life in a new immersive nighttime experience in Rome
ROME.- Rome is offering visitors a striking new way to experience one of its most iconic ancient monuments. As of March 27, 2026, the Museum of the Ara Pacis has launched “The altar reveals itself,” an immersive multimedia experience that transforms the celebrated altar into a dynamic journey through history, combining videomapping, sound, and storytelling. Rather than presenting the Ara Pacis as a static relic, the project invites visitors to move through a carefully designed route around and inside the monument while listening to a narrative enriched by the voices of figures from different eras, including Renaissance collectors, archaeologists, and restorers who played a role in its rediscovery. As the story unfolds, light projections animate the marble reliefs, tracing their contours and revealing details that are often difficult to perceive, giving the impression that the monument ...

£100,000 donation boosts King Tiger restoration project
DORSET.- A £100,000 donation has boosted The Tank Museum’s ambitious plan to restore a unique World War Two tank to running condition. The major gift means the Museum has now reached just under 30% of its £1m fundraising target for the King Tiger V2 restoration project – one of the most complex and challenging restoration projects ever undertaken by the Museum. The donation was made in memory of the late Herrick Fordham, a British Army veteran who served in Sherman tanks during World War Two. It comes almost 81 years to the day that the rare German tank fell into Allied hands. Chris Price, CEO of The Tank Museum, said: “We are immensely grateful for this generous donation in memory of Mr Fordham – a man who would have been well aware of the significance and threat this tank would have posed during the war. ...
