BERLIN.- The Scharf Collection, one of the most significant private art collections in Germany, is being showcased in a large-scale exhibition for the very first time. The collection primarily consists of French art from the 19th and 20th centuries, as well as international contemporary artworks. The exhibition in the Alte Nationalgalerie presents a selection of some 150 items, including prominent artworks by the likes of Auguste Renoir, Pierre Bonnard, Edgar Degas and Claude Monet, and takes visitors on a journey through the collection: from Goya and French Realism to the French Impressionists and Cubists to contemporary art. One special highlight is a selection of prints by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, which have been almost fully preserved in the collection. The Scharf Collection is a direct continuation of what was once Otto Gerstenberg’s extensive private Berlin-based art collection, which encompassed the dawn of modernism with artworks by Goya to the pioneers of the French avant-garde ...

LONDON.- The Long Sixties (1955-1975) is a time that revolutionised the world and Shapero Rare Books is selling one of the best collections paying tribute to this iconic moment in the history of the 20th century. The ephemera of its time - posters, festival tickets, leaflets, magazines - are particularly rare and thus making this one of the finest collections around the world whether in private hands or in an institution. Shapero is asking a seven figure sum for the whole collection and some of the several thousand individual pieces will be on view in their Bond Street Gallery from 10th to 21st November 2025. The collection was assembled by Hilary Gerrard (17 January 1933 - 11 January 2023), who was Beatle Ringo Starr's financial advisor and business manager from the 1970s to 2015, and a close friend - often seen in the background, but never in the spotlight. He was however a prolific collector and he basically bought his ... More

GRAND RAPIDS, MICH.- Jaume Plensa: A New Humanism explores Jaume Plensa’s career-long engagement with themes common to our shared humanity such as dreams, desire, justice and mortality. While Plensa’s oeuvre is marked by diversity in format and media, the human condition remains the primary subject of his art, which traverses the personal and collective, individual and universal. Featuring both monumental and intimate-scaled sculptures and select two-dimensional works that span four decades, this is the first retrospective of this internationally acclaimed artist in the United States. The art of Jaume Plensa has almost become synonymous with Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park, after the 2021 opening of his marble Utopia in the Garden Pavillion at the heart of our Welcome Center. The defining qualities of that ... More
NEW YORK, NY.- This is the most definitive volume on the life and art of Emily Mason (1932–2019), a post–New York School abstract painter whose work is marked by vibrant color and improvisational brushwork. Born in Greenwich Village, Mason developed her distinctive approach to Abstract Expressionism and Color Field painting, reminiscent of the abstractions of Mark Rothko, Helen Frankenthaler, and Joan Mitchell. This long overdue book rediscovers this important artist and reaffirms Mason’s place among the most influential abstract painters of her time. The volume examines Mason’s artistic evolution from her education at The Cooper Union to her unique and dedicated approach that transcended conventional art movements. The essays explore her significant oils on paper, prints, and clayboards, showcasing her technical prowess and adaptability. Personal writings offer insights into Mason’s ... More
MADRID.- For centuries, a humble grave discovered in the blistering heat of southern Spain has held a secret pointing to the distant heart of Europe. Now, the National Archaeological Museum (MAN) is finally pulling back the curtain on this intriguing mystery with its new temporary exhibition, “The Princess of the Carpathians: The Argàric Gold of San Antón.” On view in the museum's dynamic Archaeological Novelties Room, this exhibition—its fourth since the room's creation last year—is the culmination of decades of re-evaluation and recent groundbreaking research. It’s a story that bridges the Iberian Peninsula's advanced Bronze Age culture, the Argàric society (2200−1500 BC), with the sophisticated traditions of Central Europe. The centerpiece of the show is the grave goods of a woman found over a century ago at the San Antón site in Orihuela, Alicante. When Jesuit ... More

PARIS.- Thaddaeus Ropac Paris Pantin presents an exhibition of new works by Yan Pei-Ming, the French-Chinese artist’s first solo presentation in the Pantin gallery. In formats ranging from the monumental to the intimate, Yan Pei-Ming paints a spectrum of subjects – lions and monkeys; Pablo Picasso and the artist himself as Pope – all interspersed with self-portraits. Bridging the animal and the human, the mythical and the personal, tradition and spontaneity, the works on view isolate the shared life force that the artist seeks to articulate across his portraiture practice. Yan Pei-Ming’s work is invariably indebted to the history of European painting, but in recent years he has increasingly drawn upon his Chinese heritage in combination with Western traditions. In the exhibition, he repeatedly rehearses the motif of the lion, whose art-historical significance resonates across periods and cultures. The two lions that stand sentinel, flanking the entrance of the Pantin galler ... More
Nicole Wittenberg, Climbing Roses 10, 2025. Oil on canvas, 112 x 112 inches (284.5 x 284.5 cm).
NEW YORK, NY.- Acquavella Galleries is presenting All the Way, Nicole Wittenberg’s second solo exhibition with the gallery and her first at Acquavella’s New York location. The exhibition is on view from October 16 through December 5, 2025. A reception for the artist will be held the evening of Wednesday, October 29, from 5:00 to 7:00 pm.

Several works from Wittenberg’s museum exhibitions in Rockland and Ogunquit will appear in All the Way. All the Way explores painting’s ability to capture the sensation of a singular moment extended over time. Nicole Wittenberg's painting practice takes scenes, elements, and encounters with the natural world as its subject matter. Her landscapes and twisting florals e ... More
Hiroshi Senju, Dayfall Nightfall, 2025. Pigments on Japanese mulberry paper mounted on board, 77 x 64 inches. 194 x 162 cm. Image courtesy of Sundaram Tagore Gallery.
NEW YORK, NY.- Known for his ability to fuse traditional Japanese painting techniques with a minimalist, contemporary visual language, Hiroshi Senju explores the sacredness of nature and the human condition through his masterful treatment of water and light. This expansive exhibition includes multiple waterfall works painted with fluorescent pigments, a radical extension of the artist’s exploration of perception and experience. The paintings, including one measuring more than thirty-two feet in length, are installed under ultraviolet light in a darkened space. Visitors are invited to step inside to experience the otherworldly glow of rushing water. The artist was inspired by the reality of contemporary life, in which much of our existence unfolds beneath artificial light. Under normal illumination, the white streams of water fall softly across the canvases. But when viewed under UV light, they undergo ... More
WINTERTHUR.- Reality meets imagination: In Phantasmagoria, Indian artist Poulomi Basu brings together photography, film, virtual reality and installation. Her works foreground women from the Global South, make exclusion and gender-based violence visible, and open up pathways to self-empowerment. The exhibition is both an invitation to interrogate one’s own gaze and a powerful call to resistance. The exhibition title invokes the phantasmagorias of the 18th century, a popular form of theatre that captivated audiences with magic lantern projections and optical illusions. Basu likewise plays with the relationship between imagination and reality: she drafts speculative visions of the future that simultaneously reflect the present realities of her protagonists and highlight possibilities for self-empowerment and resistance. In her transmedial practice, Basu employs photography, film, virtual reality and installation, harnessing the potential of different media to draw attention to exclusion, structu ... More
GRAZ.- HALLE FÜR KUNST Steiermark, in cooperation with the Museo de Arte Moderno de Buenos Aires, presents the first solo exhibition in a museum in Europe of the work of Argentinian artist Celina Eceiza (*1988, Tandil, Argentina, lives in Buenos Aires). Ofrenda [Offering] presents a way of inhabiting a space as if the architecture were a body, breathing erratically, changing states as you pass from one room to the next. The rigidity of the building collapses as the walls are draped in thousands of metres of fabric joined together through the collective and timeless action of sewing, until they form a single smooth surface, sensitive to the slightest change. A metabolic force governs the growth of Eceiza’s work, which involves textile collages, sculptures, paintings and drawings–both tiny and colossal in scale–as laborious as they are elementary. The artist combines handcrafted textile techniques and processes such as patchwork, found object collages and, more recently, chalk pa ... More
Trenton Doyle Hancock, panel no. 12 from Epidemic! Presents: Step and Screw!, 2014, ink and acrylic on paper and mat board with excised lettering and gesso, 1 of 30 sheets, 19 x 12 in. (48.3 x 30.5 cm). The Menil Collection, Houston.
LOS ANGELES, CA.- Draw Them In, Paint Them Out presents the work of painter Philip Guston (American, b. Canada 1913–1980), the child of Jewish immigrants from Odessa (present-day Ukraine), and Trenton Doyle Hancock (American, b. 1974), a leading Black contemporary artist based in Houston, Texas, in dialogue for the first time. The exhibition explores resonant connections between their work and the role that artists play in the pursuit of social justice. Draw Them In, Paint Them Out features key works by Guston, including his now-iconic, late satirical Ku Klux Klan paintings, in dialogue with major works Hancock created in response to his inspirational mentor, highlighting their parallel thematic explorations of the nature of evil, self-representation, otherness, and art activism. Foregrounding works that depict the Klan, the exhibition demonstrates how both artists engage with and at times ... More

LONG ISLAND CITY, NY.- This fall, MoMA PS1 presents Four Dilations, an exhibition that counters the dominant ways in which time is kept today. On view from October 23, 2025, through March 2, 2026, the exhibition thematizes temporal dilation, a physical phenomenon that describes how observers with distinct frames of reference experience the passing of time differently. The presentation includes sculpture, performance, and installation works that are developed from time- based practices, such as dance, filmmaking, and sonic composition. Four Dilations features durational and spatial works by an international group of artists who came of age under the new regime of digital time management, each making their New York museum debut: New York-based duo Michèle Graf and Selina Grüter (b. 1987, Wetzikon; b. 1991, Zurich), New York-based Nandi Loaf (b. 1991, New York), Berlin-based Richard Sides (b. 1985, Rotherham), ...

MoMA PS1 opens first US solo exhibition of photographer Inuuteq Storch LONG ISLAND CITY, NY.- This fall, MoMA PS1 presents the first US solo exhibition of photographer Inuuteq Storch (Kalaaleq, b. 1989), tracing the artist’s practice over the past decade. On view October 9, 2025, through February 23, 2026, in the museum’s first-floor galleries, Soon Will Summer Be Over highlights Storch’s approach to imaging moments of intimacy, mundanity, and sublimity across Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland), often focusing on his hometown of Sisimiut—a town of 5,500 people just north of the Arctic Circle. Using film cameras, many handed down from friends and family, Storch documents the textures, rhythms, and infrastructures of communities navigating the crossroads of Inuit traditions, Danish colonial influences, climate crises, and the pressures of globalization. The environment, with its dramatically shifting seasons and prolonged solstices, pervades ... More
Osenat Auction to feature rare 'Wingless Aeroplane' and iconic modern classics in Lyon LYON.- Among the 100 cars that will be presented for sale by Osenat Auctions at the Epoqu'Auto show on Novemer 8 (Youngtimers) and 9 (Classics) in Lyon, France, there are three collections and some fifty motorcycles. Perhaps most fascinating is the rare and elusive 1921 HELICA Sport type SPE Série 20 N° 1. Estimated at €100,000 – €160,000. This Hélica is reminiscent of an aeroplane fuselage, hence its nickname, the ‘wingless aeroplane’), of which only three authentic examples are known to exist today. The first, in ‘private ownership’, belongs to an heir of the Peugeot family, while the second, a sports model, is on display at the Musée des Arts et Métiers. In 1921, Leyat took over construction himself and designed a new version of his propeller-driven car. The bodywork was made by Ratier, a propeller manufacturer, while Leyat took care of the assembly and mechanics. ... More
Steve Lopes returns to Mitchell Fine Art with new figurative landscape exhibition BRISBANE.- Steve Lopes returns to Mitchell Fine Art in Fortitude Valley Brisbane with a new exhibition capturing the rich experience of our existence. Steve Lopes is a Sydney based painter and printmaker known for his figurative landscape. In a career spanning over 25 years, the figure has always been central to Lopes’ oeuvre. Filled with expressive colour and bold imagery, Lopes combines complex compositions and narrative figures close to the artist’s life. While Lopes' landscapes are representations of what he sees, the figures are often imagined personalities subsequently placed into the composition. He often works en plein air, painting vignettes of a place which are used as references for large-scale studio works. The depiction of isolated figures emphasises the displacement of the human figure within the world. “These works deal with our defiance of fate and our essential ... More

Emma Stibbon's Melting Ice │ Rising Tides connects polar crisis to UK coastal erosion LONDON.- Cristea Roberts Gallery is presenting Melting Ice | Rising Tides, a solo exhibition by Emma Stibbon. In a pivotal body of work, the artist presents new drawings, prints and an immersive installation, that bring us to the frontlines of climate change, connecting vanishing polar ice and surging sea-levels with the unprecedented erosion taking place on UK coastlines. Like J.M.W Turner centuries before her, Stibbon bears witness to the changing landscape around us, bringing this powerful body of work to a London audience for the first time. The exhibition opens with Berg II and Sea Ice, Svalbard, 2023, haunting, large-scale watercolours based on the artist’s expeditions to the High Arctic and the Weddell Sea in Antarctica. Stibbon begins by making numerous sketches out in the field; the artist has described how the weather often works its way into the drawings, with spots ... More
Cutting Through Rocks, Sundance Grand Jury Prize-winner opens Nov. 21 at Film Forum NEW YORK, NY.- Film Forum will present the US theatrical premiere of Sara Khaki and Mohammadreza Eyni’s Cutting Through Rocks on Friday, November 21. Patriarchy reigns in the northwestern Iranian village where 37-year-old Sara Shahverdi—divorced, childless, and an avid motorcyclist—became the first woman elected to city council. Wife and husband team Khaki and Eyni followed Shahverdi's journey over eight years, tracking her inspiring, upstream efforts to subvert economic systems and transform local attitudes (of men and women alike) that destine girls to matrimony and dependence. A midwife and one of nine children, Sara is both deeply connected to the everyday lives of her fellow villagers and a radical lone voice advocating—at great personal cost—for education over marriage, home co-ownership, and girls on bikes. Cutting Through Rocks premiered ... More

Loving Shedhalle: Zurich art space marks 40 years with exhibition, archives, and critical look at care ZÜRICH.- Loving Shedhalle marks the 40th anniversary of Shedhalle Zurich art space in 2025 and encompasses the publication Loving Shedhalle—Resonance (book launch on November 20, 2025), a series of events titled Confluence, the online archives on loving.shedhalle.ch and the group exhibition Loving Shedhalle—Abundance. The title Loving Shedhalle is obviously ambivalent: love promises closeness, connection, and solidarity, but at the same time makes us vulnerable and exploitable. As a feminist critique, it refers to unpaid care and reproductive work, which often remains invisible. At the same time, it emphasizes love as a practice that enables relationships and shapes the working methods of Shedhalle—yesterday, today, and in the future. Loving Shedhalle—Abundance brings together fifteen artistic positions from the past forty years that are connected to Shedhalle ... More
Crespo Foundation presents Die Zeit hat kein Zentrum: Works from Ulrike Crespo's art collection FRANKFURT.- One statement you often read at exhibition openings is “The artist is present,” but this show could easily amend it to “The collector is present”: after all, Ulrike Crespo (1950–2019) is present in every single one of the works. Now, for the very first time, the exhibition Die Zeit hat kein Zentrum (Time Has No Center) is showing a selection of works from the private collection of the woman who set up the Crespo Foundation, herself an art photographer and devoted art connoisseur. Her collection testifies not only to her unique, objective eye, shaped by her professional experience as a psychologist and psychotherapist, but also to her exceptional feeling for each individual work by considering factors such as the artist’s oeuvre. The title of the exhibition Die Zeit hat kein Zentrum has been borrowed from a painting in the collection by Ben Vautier—a Swiss-French artist ... More
Benjamin Butler's "Water Paintings" opens at Klaus von Nichtssagend Gallery NEW YORK, NY.- Klaus von Nichtssagend Gallery is presenting a show of new oil paintings by Benjamin Butler titled Water Paintings. The show runs through December 6, 2025. Each of Benjamin Butler’s Water Paintings is a square-format canvas structured around a series of wave motifs. Painted in shades of blue, turquoise, and violet, these measured iterations of waveforms carry a musical quality, as variations in tone and density build into a visual rhythm. The arcs and layered horizontal brushtrokes evoke the surface of water without literal depiction, creating an optical sense of movement that is both systematic and atmospheric. For more than two decades, Butler has pursued natural forms as sites of painterly investigation, whether through vertical forests, isolated trees, mountain landscapes, or the geometric structures of pinecones. Consistency lies in his engagement ... More
