Out of the Blue takes place at The Lavery Pavilion in South Kensington, a contemporary exhibition space set within the historic former home and studio of artist Sir John Lavery.
Morus Art Group, a London-based cultural initiative founded by Alya Entts, will mark its first public London presentation on 15 October with Out of the Blue, an exhibition dedicated to emerging artistic voices and the networks of trust, mentorship and patronage that allow new practices to develop. The evening will also feature a live performance by Kirill Richter & Richter Trio. The launch formalises Morus as a cultural platform bringing together collecting, patronage, artist support, advisory and cultural production.

Hanover Gallery - Collection of Jean-Yves Mock, reproduced courtesy of Gill Hedley
From 9 October to 11 December 2026, Ordovas presents the first exhibition dedicated to celebrating Erica Brausen (1908–1992), a trailblazing gallerist of the post-war era, and founder of the legendary Hanover Gallery in Mayfair, London. The first gallerist to establish the reputation of Francis Bacon, who said she had the best eye in the art world, Brausen built the Hanover Gallery into a pivotal force in the development of contemporary art in post-war London, championing both British and international artists including Lucian Freud, Richard Hamilton, Eduardo Paolozzi, Alberto Giacometti, Germaine Richier and Niki de Saint Phalle, among many others. A native German who moved to Paris in the 1930s, becoming part of its thriving art scene, she fled to London in 1937, on the eve of World War II; in the decades that followed, she fundamentally transformed and invigorated the city’s cultural landscape, using her connections t ...

The Van Gogh Museum and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science have reached an agreement that will make it possible to finance the much-needed renovation of the museum building. The uncertainty over the museum’s future has now been resolved. After more than fifty years of intensive use, the Van Gogh Museum building is no longer future proof and requires renovation. If not addressed, the building’s condition would eventually be insufficient to guarantee security, climate control and sustainability. The Van Gogh Museum and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science have now successfully completed a mediation process. This has resulted in a settlement agreement regarding funding for the renovation, which secures the future of the museum and the collection. General Director Emilie Gordenker: ‘The renovation is necessary to preserve the building and the renowned collection for visitors, staff and future generations. We have reached a settlement with the ministry t ... More
Pia Camil, Domme (detail), 2026. Oil on cotton canvas, with window shutters and metal hinges, dimensions (windows open): 130 x 84.3 x 4.2 cm, dimensions (windows closed): 64.3 x 84.3 x 6.9 cm. Courtesy of the Artist and Elizabeth Xi Bauer, London.
Elizabeth Xi Bauer presents Bestia, a solo exhibition of new works by Pia Camil. The show marks both the artist's debut solo exhibition in London and her first presentation with the gallery. Drawing from personal experience, the exhibition explores the unstable boundaries between looking and being looked at. Continuing Camil’s long-standing interest in dismantling fixed narratives and hierarchies, this upcoming exhibition invites viewers to connect with their own desire as a place for resistance. Throughout Bestia, Camil rejects binary ways of thinking that seek to separate instinct from intellect and the public from the private. Instead, the exhibition embraces complexity, emphasising the coexistence of multiple truths regarding the female experience. By unsettling fixed notions of womanhood ... More
Peter Zimmermann, it grows, 2026. Epoxy on canvas, 80 x 60 cm.
Dirimart presents Peter Zimmermann’s solo exhibition still flowing, the artist’s first solo show in London. Presenting a new body of epoxy-on-canvas works, still flowing will be on view at Dirimart London from 8 October to 7 November 2026. Over the course of three decades, Zimmermann has mastered the unique properties of epoxy resin, producing works that sit at the intersection of digital aesthetics and material physicality. Approaching painting as a series of experiments, and in response to the digital culture that increasingly shapes our lives, the artist prioritises manual labour. Working with a material that is viscous, neither solid nor liquid, Zimmermann creates through a series of gestures, not imposing form but negotiating with the material within the narrow window of time before the resin solidifies. What ultimately appears on the canvas is the result of a conversation whose second participant does not ... More
Artello to auction 300-lot Provençal farmhouse collection at Drouot on October 27 A wide-ranging collection assembled over fifteen years in a Provençal farmhouse will come to auction at Drouot on October 27, when Artello offers more than 300 lots spanning ceramics, design, jewelry, furniture and modern and contemporary art. Built by a former advertising executive identified as Mr. M., the collection reflects what Artello describes as an unusually restless and eclectic eye, moving freely between postwar Vallauris ceramics, objects by Line Vautrin, modernist design and works by artists including Marie Vassilieff, Arman, Igor Mitoraj and Thomas Hirschhorn. “There isn’t a day when I don’t buy something,” the collector has said. Among the most striking works is Dominique Pouchain’s monumental Bovidé, created around 2015. Standing 1.65 meters high, the glazed ceramic sculpture carries an estimate of €6,000 to €9,000. Another Pouchain sculpture, also dating from around 2015, is estimated at €1,200 to €1,800. “As soon as we ... More
Gagosian to present Dan Flavin's complete "European Couples" series at Le Bourget Gagosian announced European Couples, an exhibition uniting all nine fluorescent corner light works from Dan Flavin’s European Couples series (1966–71), opening at the Le Bourget gallery on October 18. Presented in their entirety for only the third time ever—and for the first time in France—these “situations,” as Flavin called them, offer a rare opportunity to experience the series as a unified installation and to consider the relationships between color, seriality, architecture, and the titles’ dedications that underpin it. Five works on loan from the Estate of Dan Flavin join four from the collection of Heiner Friedrich, following the complete series’ long-term presentation at DASMAXIMUM KunstGegenwart, the private museum Friedrich founded in Traunreut, Germany, in 2011, which closed in 2024. The European Couples series is rooted in Flavin’s relationships and his long-standing practice of dedicating works to people ... More

Fondation Louis Vuitton presents Open Space #19: Mohammad Alfaraj As part of its Open Space program, the Fondation Louis Vuitton has invited artist Mohammad Alfaraj (b. 1993, Saudi Arabia) to create a site-specific work in Gallery 8, marking his first solo exhibition in a French institution. A multidisciplinary artist, Mohammad Alfaraj develops a practice spanning writing, video, photography, drawing, and sculpture rooted in the Al-Ahsa oasis, where he lives and works. Drawing on its landscapes, inhabitants, architecture, myths and oral traditions, he explores the relationships between humans and nature through poetic narratives that engage with contemporary ecological, social, and cultural issues. For I’d Rather Be a Dragonfly Than a Lion, Alfaraj has conceived an installation combining images of palm groves, desert landscapes and mountains with materials such as sand, wood and water. Together, these elements form a poetic world where reality and the fantastic merge. A photograph on the ceiling opens the perspective like ... More
Matthieu Blazy's Chanel makes a splash at Heritage's Autumn Luxury Accessories Auction One of fashion’s most closely watched new chapters made an early impression on the secondary market when a Chanel Cheetah Ponyhair Mini 25 Hobo Bag from Matthieu Blazy’s first Métiers d’Art collection realized $30,000 in Heritage Auctions’ Oct. 1 Autumn Luxury Accessories Signature® Auction, doubling its high pre-auction estimate and helping lead the auction to a $2,613,209 total. The handbag’s result was one of the biggest surprises of the auction and part of broader interest in Blazy’s newest Chanel designs. Other pieces from his collection also performed well, including a handwoven Leopard Print Tweed Mixed Fibers Maxi Souplissimo Flap Bag that brought $10,625 and a Black & White Ponyhair Small Chic Lady Shopping Bag that realized $7,500. “Matthieu Blazy’s ponyhair Chanel 25 Mini Hobo was the most pleasant surprise,” says Diane D’Amato, Heritage Auctions’ Director of Luxury Accessories, Private Sales & The Boutique. “There ...

Kisling, Camoin and Valtat lead Paris collection assembled over four decades A collection shaped by four decades of close looking, regular visits to the Hôtel Drouot and a lifelong familiarity with the Paris art trade will come to auction at Gros & Delettrez on October 22, 2026. The collection belonged to the son of a Parisian gallery owner and brings together works by leading figures of the School of Paris alongside French colorists associated with Fauvism and the artistic life of Montmartre. Among the artists represented are Moïse Kisling, Pinchus Krémègne, Jules Pascin, Hermine David, Toshio Bando, Ossip Zadkine, Charles Camoin, Louis Valtat, Élisée Maclet and Gen Paul. The collector grew up around the art market. His father founded Galerie 93 at 93 rue du Faubourg-Saint-Honoré, a gallery specializing in naïve painters, and the younger collector later worked alongside him before building an independent collection of his own. According to Cabinet Chanoit, the expert for the sale, his choices were marked by an unusually strict standard. Rather tha ... More
Malmö Konstmuseum launches international architecture competition A monastery once stood on this site. At the end of the 19th century, an elegant restaurant pavilion was built for the city’s high society, before being transformed just over a century later into a casino. Today, the yellow building in the green heart of Malmö is entering another chapter of its multifaceted history: in 2031, it is set to be converted into the permanent home of Malmö Konstmuseum. An international architecture competition is now underway to transform and extend the historic building, creating a new home for one of Scandinavia’s most significant public art collections, comprising more than 40,000 works. But the future museum is already taking shape. Together with artists, residents, researchers, students and cultural practitioners, Malmö Konstmuseum is examining the site’s histories, challenging perspectives and testing possibilities ... More
Ashara Ekundayo brings non-linear Black cosmologies to San Francisco Arts Commission The San Francisco Arts Commission Main Gallery is presenting Excavating Uranus, A Psalm for Nyota Uhura, a group exhibition that asks what if the past, present, and future were not separate places, but worlds we could inhabit at the same time? Curated by Ashara Ekundayo, the exhibition brings together the work of Sydney Cain, Ayana V. Jackson, Courtney Desiree Morris, and bryant terry. Excavating Uranus, A Psalm for Nyota Uhura opened on October 8, 2026, at the SFAC Main Gallery in the War Memorial Veterans Building and will be on view through January 30, 2027. “Art is a conversation across time and space that can carry our collective stories and memories from one generation to the next,” said Matthew Goudeau, Executive Director of Arts and Culture. “Through exhibitions such as Excavating Uranus, A Psalm ...

Fondazione Giuliani opens an exhibition featuring Peter Marcasiano and Michele Tocca Fondazione Giuliani is presenting A Sort of Song, a two-person exhibition of Peter Marcasiano and Michele Tocca. While belonging to different generations and artistic contexts, both artists have developed forms of painting grounded in an unusually sustained attention to things. Bringing their practices into dialogue, the exhibition explores the ways in which painting can transform our perception of the familiar: through repetition and observation, through the rhythms of routine, and through an attentiveness that allows ordinary objects to acquire an unexpected intensity. The title refers to William Carlos Williams’s 1944 poem “A Sort of a Song”, in which the American poet reflects on the relationship between language and the physical world. His proposition that there should be “no ideas but in things” is less a rejection of ideas than an insistence that ... More
Bildmuseet presents two major autumn exhibitions by Nina Mangalanayagam and Anneli Furmark Drawing on photography, film and sound installation, Nina Mangalanayagam explores questions of belonging and composite identities, often with an autobiographical approach. At Bildmuseet, she presents new works about Sweden’s colonial past and its relevance today. In the exhibition Tomma ark [Blank Pages], we encounter traces from the Swedish colony of Saint Barthélemy, taking the position of the ‘free Black’ woman as a starting point. Mangalanayagam draws on the story of Ulrica, a woman from the archives, to explore this elusive position in Swedish history. Working through the archives’ fragments and gaps, the artist connects contradictory narratives and offers fresh perspectives on colonial history and how it shapes contemporary society. Mangalanayagam’s artistic research is largely based on the work of historian Fredrik Thomasson ... More
Tai Kwun Contemporary opens Anne Imhof's major Asia solo debut Tai Kwun Contemporary is presenting Anne Imhof: House of Swans, the artist’s first major solo exhibition in Asia. Curated by Ying Kwok and Tiffany Leung, the exhibition features a substantial body of new work conceived specifically for Tai Kwun, encompassing a newly produced ballet performance and accompanying soundtrack, video installations, paintings, and sculptures. With its striking scenography, House of Swans foregrounds the artist’s deepening connection to classical ballet and takes audiences through imposing and intimate architectural spaces to create a powerful choreography. Revisiting and expanding upon her previous performance work DOOM: House of Hope (2025), House of Swans forms a stage for performances through large-scale installations of chain-link fences, crowd barriers and lockers, among which are situated her paintings, ...

Emma Ainala brings dreamlike canvases to Kiasma In her oil paintings Emma Ainala opens up a seductive, chaotic world to the viewer, a world where Barbie can be a Messiah and Ophelia can drown in a sofa instead of a river. Ainala’s themes spring from being a woman, while the various meanings of the gaze take on new overtones in works made specifically for the exhibition. Here, Ainala drills down into subconscious, shared experiences of our present moment. Like a Prayer is the most extensive overview of her work to date. It will be at Kiasma 9.10.2026–14.2.2027. The main characters in Emma Ainala’s (b. 1989, Helsinki) art are often girls and women who linger amid luxuriant nature and in claustrophobia-inducing rooms. Some of them have turned into spiders or snakes, one has been given a sphinx’s features, and others those of a centaur. The women are comparable to pet animals and blend into the décor ... More
Mirjana Vrbaški explores fire, ecology and regeneration in Berlin exhibition Serbian artist and photographer Mirjana Vrbaški is examining fire not simply as a destructive force, but as an agent of renewal, transformation and ecological care in her new exhibition, Controlled Burn, opening at the Galerie im Tempelhof Museum in Berlin. On view from October 9, 2026 through January 17, 2027, the exhibition brings together recent photographs, installations and works on wood and glass that explore the changing relationship between people, landscapes and environmental intervention. Vrbaški’s starting point is a question that has become increasingly urgent as wildfires grow more frequent around the world: how does our perception of nature change when fire becomes an ever more visible part of the landscape? Rather than focusing exclusively on devastation, the artist considers fire’s more complex role within natural ecosystems. ... More
Thermochromic canvases and bronze bells: Justin Caguiat transforms Serpentine South Serpentine presents the first UK institutional exhibition of new and recent works by London-based artist Justin Caguiat, on view at Serpentine South from 8 October 2026 to 10 January 2027. Change Ringing brings together painting, sculpture, printmaking, sound and film. Justin Caguiat engages with the gallery beyond its interiority, using the architecture and infrastructure of the Serpentine South building to frame and display his artworks. Through a use of heat-responsive pigment, works on view at Serpentine constantly change in colour and reveal different shapes as they react to environmental factors such as temperature and light. Though they resist fixed narratives, the paintings are reminiscent of fresco painting. Alongside canvases, sculptures and prints, Caguiat also shows a series of bronze bells cast in the shapes of various flowers and plant ... More
Musée cantonal des Beaux-Arts de Lausanne presents Ted Joans: Black Flower The Musée cantonal des Beaux-Arts de Lausanne presents Ted Joans. Black Flower, the first monographic exhibition devoted to Ted Joans (1928–2003), a major figure of the Beat Generation and international Surrealism. Developed in close collaboration with the artist’s estate, the exhibition brings together a dispersed body of works and archival material, shedding new light on a visual practice long overshadowed by his writing. A poet and visual artist, Joans was immersed in jazz throughout his life. Raised in segregated Kentucky, he joined Greenwich Village’s bohemian circles in the 1950s before developing a tricontinental life connecting New York, Paris, Tangier and Timbuktu. He described himself as a “jazz poet” and a Surrealist, while resisting fixed disciplinary and cultural categories. His engagement with Black Power and Pan-Africanism ... More
Shigeo Otake joins White Cube White Cube announced global representation of Japanese artist Shigeo Otake (b. 1955, Kobe, Japan). Developed independently over more than four decades, Otake’s singular visual language bridges classical pictorial techniques with an expansive visionary realm – one that speaks to contemporary paradigms of interspecies symbiosis, radical coexistence, and non-human agency. Populated by fantastical creatures, fungi, flora and fauna, his compositions conjure moments of collective participation and mutual exchange. Human and otherworldly entities navigate shared environments, turning seemingly mundane transactions into complex allegories of social and biological life. White Cube will present new paintings by Otake at Art Basel Paris (20–25 October 2026, Booth B34) and at West Bund Art & Design, Shanghai (10–15 November ... More
Remai Modern presents d harding's first North American solo exhibition Remai Modern presents the first solo exhibition in North America by d harding, an artist who is a descendant of Bidjara, Ghungalu and Garingbal peoples of Central Queensland Australia. Transfer paintings will feature new and existing works with particular focus on what the artist has learned by spending time on northern lands and with Indigenous peoples in Canada, Sweden and Norway. The exhibition focuses on the legibility, history and purpose of key cultural colours in their home context, while attending to what they have learned by listening and looking closely to other culture’s relations and uses for a similar palette. Seemingly abstract and monochrome pigment works on paper and textiles—gridded by folding and unfolding, containing and releasing—belie the performances, journeys, stories, knowledge and power they contain. ...
