CORNING, NY.-The Rockwell Museum invites people to see themselves amid a kaleidoscope of rolling hills, flowers and radiant color in "Infinity Park," a new public mural by multidisciplinary artist Devan Shimoyama.

Wayne Thiebaud, Girl in White Boots, signed and dated 'Thiebaud 1965' (lower center) oil on canvas, 72 x 54.3/4 in. (182.9 x 139 cm.) Painted in 1965, Estimate: $ 3 – 5 Million.
NEW YORK, NY.- This November, Girl in White Boots, Wayne Thiebaud's iconic 1965 portrait of Blair Sabol, will be sold at Christie's, coming from the collection of Blair Sabol. Commissioned by Blair's parents following her senior year of high school, the work was painted by Thiebaud in the summer of 1965 in his Sacramento studio, where Blair sat perfectly still for him over the course of four consecutive days from 10am to 5pm, with an hour break for lunch. Blair had just come from a trip to New York with her mother, Audrey Sabol, whom had given her the ultimate graduation present: an appointment with Vidal Sassoon, the world's most sought-after hair stylist, in his newly opened salon. Depicting Blair in her new mod haircut, bright yellow Courreges-style shift dress and white go-go boots, the portrait captures a moment in American culture, intersecting ... More
Mildred Thompson, Untitled (Heliocentric Series), c. 1993-94. Oil on vinyl, 70 ¼ x 48 in (178.4 x 121.9 cm).
NEW YORK, NY.- Galerie Lelong, New York, announces exhibition of work by Mildred Thompson (b. 1936–d. 2003), the gallery’s third exhibition dedicated to the groundbreaking American artist. Entitled Cosmos Calling, the exhibition presents her masterwork Music of the Spheres paintings alongside a selection from her Heliocentric Series. In these bodies of works, Thompson turns her longstanding interest in the invisible forces that make up the fabric of the universe toward our solar system. Created in the early-to-mid 1990s, the works on view represent the coalescence of Thompson’s artistic practice with her deep personal interests in astrophysics and music. In an artist statement from the same decade, “I seek to portray some of the profound meanings and influences indicated by the invisible dimensions and realities around us. My works are physical manifestations of my understanding and appreciation for the ... More
NEW YORK, NY.- Olney Gleason announced a solo exhibition of new paintings by Bosco Sodi (b. 1970, Mexico City). On view will be a suite of oxidized copper paintings made over the last year in the artist’s Brooklyn studio and a new group of glazed volcanic rock sculptures. The paintings are characterized by the vibrant verdigris patina that forms on each surface as the copper reacts to the atmospheric elements, deepening Sodi’s longstanding exploration of the dialectic of beauty and transformation. The exhibition will open at 509 West 27th Street, New York, in October 2026, concurrent with Sodi’s participation in the 16th Gwangju Biennale in South Korea. Layering copper paint and copper-based gold powder onto canvas, Sodi applies vinegar, salt, and various acids to induce a chemical reaction that causes a dramatic change in color over time. Introducing an element of anticipation to this body work, he lets chance determine the final color and texture by applying these agents at varying d ... More
PARIS.- What happens to the ambitions of a nation when its factories close, its institutions disappear, and the promises of independence remain unfulfilled? For Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama, the answer lies not in abandoning the past but in bringing its forgotten materials, buildings, and histories back to life. At the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain in Paris, Mahama explores these questions in Le Temps des récoltes (The Time of Harvests), an ambitious exhibition running from October 22, 2026, through February 28, 2027. Described by the institution as the largest presentation of his work yet organized in France, the exhibition brings together monumental installations, archival materials, and the contributions of nine artists and collectives whose practices intersect with his own. Taking over the Fondation Cartier's exhibition spaces at Place du Palais-Royal, the project transforms the museum into something more than a place for displaying art. It becomes a forum for ... More
Installation view Ana Lupas: On Ritual Time. Photo: Dirk Pauwels.
GHENT.- S.M.A.K. presents a major exhibition dedicated to the work of Ana Lupas, one of the leading artists from Eastern Europe. On Ritual Time has been conceived in the final phase of Lupas’s artistic career and life. Alongside her own work, the exhibition also features works by her late partner, the artist S P A T A R U. The exhibition thus takes on the character of a deeply personal artistic testament, looking back on seven decades of a multifaceted body of work, ranging from textile art to monumental in situ projects. Ana Lupas (b. 1940, Cluj-Napoca, Romania) has devoted seven decades to artistic practice, initially working with textiles. Drawing on inherited techniques such as weaving, sewing, knotting and braiding, she developed a contemporary visual language at a time when Fiber Art was emerging as an artistic movement. A monumental presentation of her earliest textile works, Prapori 1961–1964, comprising 53 free-standing ... More

Unseen contact sheets reveal Robert Adams's creative process at Fraenkel Gallery SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- For the first time, Robert Adams: Contact brings into view the artist’s contact sheets. Presented alongside the final prints, these previously unseen materials provide a glimpse into Adams’s creative process and the choices that shaped some of his most celebrated photographs. They trace his path through the landscape, and offer insights into his selections, sequences, and printing long after the exposure was made. Adams sometimes returned to contact sheets months or even years later. Sometimes the image “would be perfectly obvious,” says Adams. For others, “it took me a year to realize something was a picture.” Looking closely, Adams’s contact sheets reveal how he approached his subjects, and how he continued to think about his work after making an image. In a 1969 contact sheet made in Colorado Springs, Adams ... More

Museum Villa Stuck presents a monumental immersive exhibition by Gonzalo Borondo MUNICH.- Mater is another place. Upon entering the exhibition, a dreamlike world opens up, challenging our senses. The exhibition route moves between installation, sound environment, and walk-through image machine; behind every threshold, a surprising turn awaits. With Mater, the Museum Villa Stuck presents artist Gonzalo Borondo’s second intervention in Munich. In 2025, during the museum’s renovation, a white-and-gold-painted scaffolding mesh enveloped the facade like translucent skin—the project was titled Chrysalis. Now the building’s renovation is complete, the restored facade shines with renewed splendor, and the transformation continues in the monumental spaces of the Villa Stuck’s New Studio. For Borondo, the exhibition itself is the work of art. The works are prepared over months and years but created largely on site, where they ... More

Alicja Kwade brings new sculptures, mirrors, and distorted clocks to Pace Tokyo TOKYO.- A peach is caught in the pull of a tunnel. Boulders encounter their mirror images, heavy stones appear to float between gleaming funnels, and a clock tries in vain to escape its own course. From October 29 through December 25, Pace will present La Pêche miraculeuse, an exhibition of new works by Alicja Kwade, at its Tokyo gallery. Bringing together larger and smaller sculptures in an installation conceived specifically for the exhibition, alongside works on paper, La Pêche miraculeuse turns toward the unfamiliar and often unseen spaces within and between things. As throughout Kwade’s practice, the exhibition engages with reality and, with it, all that eludes immediate perception and cannot be fully grasped through the senses. Emptiness, light, and time become the sculptures themselves, while the physicality of things becomes their visible manifestation. ... More
