Lee Krasner, (American, 1908–1984) Free Space, 1975, Serigraph, 19 ½ x 26, Parrish Art Museum, Water Mill, N.Y., Gift of Carole and Alex Rosenberg.
WATER MILL, NY.- To mark America’s semi-quincentennial in 2026, the Parrish Art Museum will present Parrish USA250: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness, a yearlong series of exhibitions and programs exploring the core ideals of the Declaration of Independence through the East End of Long Island’s enduring role in shaping American creativity and identity. The series reflects on the nation’s founding values, examines our present moment, and imagines new paths forward, while recognizing the significant contributions of Long Island artists to American art and culture. “In 2026, the Parrish Art Museum has both the privilege and the responsibility to illuminate the ideals that shaped this nation through the lens of art.

NEW YORK, NY.- Nguyen Wahed Gallery and FanFlus are delighted to present the group exhibition, Threshold in Relations in New York City. Curated by Fanfan Yuxuan FAN, the show features materially diverse works by five artists and examines how these practices generate relations at the very limits of perception, reevaluating the assumptions of scripted engagement in the context of aesthetic experience. “Threshold phenomena” describe sudden shifts in which minimal changes in sensory input precipitate a disproportionate transformation of experience. Relations are most powerfully formed at perceptual thresholds—moments of visual, emotional, or multisensory saturation in which vision, attention, or affect destabilize and must reorganize, pressing us against a limit and compelling a recalibration of our engagement with the work. Thresholds function as zones of emergence—fragile, volatile, and generative. High-saturation color drives the visual system toward ... More

JERUSALEM.- In recent days, the uncovering of an impressive Hasmonean (Maccabean) period Jerusalem city wall was completed, built in the late 2nd century BCE. Discovered on the grounds of the Tower of David, adjacent to the citadel, within the historic complex known as the Kishle, and exposed during an Israel Antiquities Authority archaeological excavation, this wall is one of the most complete and longest sections discovered in Jerusalem to date. The work has been done in preparation for the new “Schulich Wing of Archaeology, Art and Innovation” which will be located in the Kishle complex at the Tower of David Jerusalem Museum. According to Dr. Amit Re’im and Dr. Marion Zindel, Excavation Directors on behalf of the Israel Antiquities Authority, “The newly uncovered section, known in ancient historical sources as the ‘First Wall’, is particularly impressive in both its size and its degree of preservation - over 40 meters long, and about 5 meters wide. The wall is meti ... More

MALAGA.- Picasso Reflections is an exhibition programme that has the strategic aim of expanding the presence of the Museo Picasso Málaga in Andalusia, generating new opportunities to reinterpret Picasso's work from contemporary perspectives.

NEW YORK, NY.- Olney Gleason announced representation of the Estate of Marcia Marcus. The gallery will present the solo exhibition Marcia Marcus: Mirror Image from January 8–February 14, 2026. Marcia Marcus: Mirror Image is a focused survey of paintings spanning thirty years from 1964–1994, marking the first solo exhibition of the artist’s work since 2017. The exhibition includes three of Marcus’ critically acclaimed group portraits in dialogue with important works in other genres – self-portraiture, still-life, landscape, and architecture – demonstrating the artist’s formal inventiveness and arguing for her traceable influence on painters working today. The exhibition anticipates the artist’s career-spanning retrospective at Provincetown Art Association and Museum from June 26–August 30, 2026, which will be accompanied by a major monograph. A singular figure in postwar American art, Marcia Marcus (1928–2025) is recognized for her rigorous and sensiti ... More
William Kentridge, Lexicon of Trees III, 2025 Indian ink on found paper, 30,5 x 22,3 cm.
HAMBURG.- William Kentridge became known for his animated films, for which he subjects charcoal drawings to a characteristic process of erasing and covering. In a dynamic interplay, he deconstructs and reassembles image forms in his art, jumping back and forth between media and disciplines. His work has a distinctly narrative character in its treatment of themes relating to history, time and the absurdities of a world of great certainties. His works are mirrors that reflect our deepest paradoxes, which Kentridge always addresses from the perspective of his South African homeland. His visual language is both intellectually and emotionally moving. The starting point and creative basis of his work is drawing. With his Lexicon of Trees, William Kentridge revisits one of the central motifs of his oeuvre – the tree as a symbol of memory, growth and rootedness. Since the early 1990s, trees have frequently appeared ... More
Beginning next year, specialists from the Paleontology Section at the INAH Puebla Center will carefully clean and stabilize the fossils. Photo: INAH Puebla Center.
MEXICO CITY.- The discovery of ancient megafauna fossils in the community of San Sebastián Villanueva, in the municipality of Acatzingo, Puebla, has opened a remarkable new window onto Mexico’s prehistoric past. Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) has confirmed that the remains belong to several large animals that lived during the Late Pleistocene, including a glyptodont, a dire wolf, a prehistoric horse, and a ground sloth. The fossils are now being safeguarded by the Paleontology Section of the INAH Puebla Center, where they will undergo detailed study beginning in 2026. The remains were uncovered along a dirt road known as Paso La Mora, after local residents alerted authorities to the find. Archaeologists and paleontologists carried out a careful recovery operation between October 21 and 24, 2025, working closely with the local community, the auxiliary presidency ... More
Léon Spilliaert, Self-Portrait on a Blue Background.
CHICAGO, IL.- The Art Institute of Chicago acquired more than 1,000 artworks this year, ranging from a rare 17th-century South Asian textile to an impressive Symbolist self-portrait. These artworks showcase global artistry that spans mediums, artistic movements, and eras, and support the Art Institute's mission to collect art that expands the collection and inspires visitors. Rendering his subjects with icy precision and razor-sharp detail, Christian Schad quickly became one of the leading practitioners of “Neue Sachlichkeit” or “New Objectivity,” an avant-garde style known for its pointed cultural critiques and disavowal of the painterly excesses of German Expressionism. This portrait depicts Austrian composer Josef Matthias Hauer, a brilliant musician who was one of the first inventors of 12-tone musical composition. While Schad has been long esteemed and collected in Europe, this is his first portrait to enter a US museum. This drawing is among the largest and ... More
Richard Texier, Elastogénie du Couchant, 2024. Oil and acrylic on linen, 162 x 130 x 2.5 cm. 63 3/4 x 51 1/8 x 1 in.
KNOKKE.- Maruani Mercier is presenting Richard Texier: Tales of Pantheism, a first solo exhibition, on view at the Knokke gallery. Richard Texier (b. 1955, Niort) describes himself with disarming simplicity: “I am a painter, a sculptor, or at least someone very close to the visual arts.” Yet his practice extends far beyond any single definition, moving fluidly between sculpture and painting, each medium sustaining and inspiring the other. Tales of Pantheism reveals the full arc of Texier’s world by uniting his sculptures and paintings into a comprehensive exhibition. Painting complements sculpture as a meditative, exploratory counterpart. Guided by Elastogenesis, Texier’s manifesto of creative elasticity, this principle flows like a force within both matter and imagination. It is foremost an elasticity of the mind, opening the way to all possibilities. For an artist, it ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- The National Academy of Design is presenting Whose America?, an exhibition that examines the United States’ relationship to the history of ‘America’ in all of its pluralities. Drawing upon its varied and eclectic roster of National Academicians, those with vastly different experiences of diaspora from throughout the Americas, Whose America? deconstructs the many regional, political and social influences that have shaped the United States’ cultural landscape today. As the inaugural exhibition of the National Academy’s year-long bicentennial celebration, Whose America? draws on the Academy’s history as one of the founding arts institutions in the United States and reflects the institution's commitment to looking critically at its own past. Organized around a series of fundamental yet seldom asked questions— who is America?, who does it belong to? and who writes its history? — the exhibition brings together a wide ... More

ROME.- In the Jubilee Year and on the occasion of the centenary of Luigi Pellegrin’s birth, MAXXI – the National Museum of 21st Century Arts in Rome – turns its attention to one of Italy’s most visionary and unconventional architects. Opening on December 17, 2025, and on view through April 6, 2026, Prefigurations for Rome offers a focused yet revealing retrospective drawn from Pellegrin’s extensive archive, now preserved at MAXXI’s Architecture Archives Center and in private collections. Rather than presenting a traditional chronological survey, the exhibition invites visitors into Pellegrin’s way of thinking. Curated by Sergio Bianchi and Angela Parente, the show unfolds along two intertwined paths: his professional architectural practice and a parallel, deeply imaginative body of artistic research. Large-scale drawings, models, and visionary studies reveal an architect constantly negotiating between what could be built and what could be imagined. Pellegrin ... More

CentroCentro announces highlights of 2026 first trimester exhibition programme MADRID.- fueradentro is the first major institutional retrospective of the work of FOD (Puerto Lumbreras, Murcia, Spain, 1973) in Madrid. Entering into dialogue with the architecture of Cibeles Palace, the exhibition brings together some twenty works—drawings, paintings, murals, sculptures, and installations—many of which are large-format. FOD (Francisco Olivares Díaz) is one of the most established names within the geometric strand of contemporary Spanish art. A collective exhibition showcasing the work of four visual artists at the forefront of Madrid’s emerging creative scene: Sofía Briales (Madrid, 1999), Mario Manso (Logroño, 2004), Isabel Merchante (Madrid, 1999) and Ángel Sevillano (Madrid, 1998). The works, which have been specifically produced for this exhibition, address the plural and heterogeneous panorama of the city’s emerging art scene. In each piece, ... More
Unrealized since 1965, Franz Erhard Walther's Gelb Yellow Jaune is reconstructed in a new exhibition FULDA.- The focus of this exhibition is directed to the reconstruction of the solo exhibition GELB YELLOW JAUNE, which Franz Erhard Walther devised for 1965 but never realized. His plan was to show eight yellow works of his in eight rooms at the former Galerie Junge Kunst Fulda: six action pieces, including variations on elements in the First Work Set, and two large, site-specific works that anticipated aspects of his later room-based pieces of the 1970s. While the uniform color of the works, as a homage to Yves Klein, can clearly be seen as a reference to the contemporary art of the day, the radical nature of the project lies in the works’ embrace of action and space. The exhibition, conceived with pieces from 1963/64, illustrates a moment in Walther's artistic development when he grappled with the most important decisions in the entire history of his artistic career. ...

Shelter for the unicorn celebrates the centenary of Latvian textile artist Georgs Barkāns RIGA.- From 18 December 2025 to 8 February 2026, the Museum of Decorative Arts and Design in Riga (Skārņu iela 10) invites to visit an exhibition Shelter for the Unicorn dedicated to the centenary of the birth of prominent Latvian textile artist Georgs Barkāns. Georgs Barkāns (1925–2010) was one of the most influential figures in Latvian textile arts during its major upswing in the second half of the 20th century. From the 1960s onward, textile arts in Latvia broke away from their status as applied arts and grew increasingly modern, figurative and experimental. In both textile art and design pedagogy, Georgs Barkāns stood out as an innovator and an adventurous spirit. His vivid imagination and creative endeavors had to abide by the rules dictated by the occupying regime. Still, master managed to prevent it from showing directly in his works, neither expressing endorsement ... More

Curated by Agnes Gryczkowska, at the invitation of Casino Luxembourg—Forum d’art contemporain. “Raw intensity surges through the body, opening it up to primal instincts; the body spasms, convulses and escapes from its function and organs, leaving traces of its dark choreography; the mind loses itself, forms itself into madness and sculpts into the raw truth; language collapses, gestures carve meaning beyond words; the absurdity of repetition moulds into a trance that will never conclude; the avatar, the actor, the double ...
