These artists demonstrate that Surrealism remains one of ... More
SYDNEY.- This summer, the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA Australia) will come alive as celebrated French artist Philippe Parreno reveals his first major exhibition in Australia. Philippe Parreno: 5 Moons will see Parreno take over and transform the MCA Australia into a dynamic, spontaneous production filled with sound, light, movement and unexpected encounters. Philippe Parreno (b. 1964, France) is a pivotal figure at the forefront of contemporary art. Threading together film, audio, installation, objects, text, drawing and advanced technologies including AI and robotics, he is renowned for radically reimagining the very essence of what an exhibition is. He describes himself not as an artist, but as an ‘exhibition producer’ – orchestrating environments that think, respond and unfold over time and place. Parreno's exhibitions explore the boundaries between reality, fiction and hypothesis, immersing visitors in temporal and sensory experiences that shift and flow. He tra ... More
ATHENS.- The Museum of Cycladic Art, Athens is presenting Jeff Koons: ‘Venus’ Lespugue, marking the first public display of Balloon Venus Lespugue (Orange) (2013-2019) by Jeff Koons. Exploring the significance of the Venus figure from the Paleolithic period to the present day, the work will be shown from 19 March to 31 August 2026, at the Museum’s Stathatos Mansion alongside a series of ten replicas of Venus figurines from the Upper Paleolithic era, asking how the universal archetype of fertility has transcended across time and place. Koons’ Balloon Venus Lespugue (Orange) draws inspiration from the prehistoric Venus of Lespugue, a mammoth tusk ivory figurine that dates back approximately 28,000 years. Jeff Koons has been ... More
Rosso Fiorentino (Italian, 1494–1540). Madonna and Child with Saint John the Evangelist, 1512/13. Oil on canvas, laid down on wood. Private Collection.
NEW YORK, NY.- The Metropolitan Museum of Art announced today that it will acquire a newly rediscovered painting by Renaissance artist Rosso Fiorentino (1494–1540), one of the great masters of the maniera moderna, known today as Mannerism. Madonna and Child with Saint John the Evangelist, thought to be lost for centuries, was newly identified during a recent conservation treatment that removed a layer of overpaint on the canvas, revealing the remarkable figure of Saint John the Evangelist in the foreground of the picture plane. The reemergence of the figure—after perhaps centuries of being overpainted—made clear that this is the seminal painting described in Giorgio Vasari's Lives of the Artists as the work that launched the young Florentine artist's career. "This painting is a rare and pivotal early work by one of the most important painters of the 16th century, striking in its experimental ... More
Daisuke Nakano, Four Seasons - Whispers of Spring, 2025. Washi, gold leaf, ink, and mineral-based pigments, H35.8 x W25.7 in. H90.9 × W65.2 cm A30234
NEW YORK, NY.- Ippodo Gallery is presenting Banquet of Life: Nihonga Paintings by Daisuke Nakano, the Japanese painter’s long-awaited third New York solo exhibition, coinciding with Asia Week New York 2026. Eleven new works, on view from March 19 to April 18, 2026, mark the pivotal transition of seasons. Daisuke Nakano celebrates the natural world through glorious depictions of flora and fauna: blanketed in shimmering snow, at the turning point of the springtime thaw, and in full blooming colors. Native to Kyoto and a master of Nihonga painting traditions, Daisuke Nakano (b. 1974) draws upon historical Japanese image-making to paint bright scenes of nature in a state of undisturbed purity. Each pigment is ground from rare and precious minerals mixed with nikawa, deer-collagen glue, and placed upon a background of gold and silver leaf on washi paper in keeping with the methods developed in Japan for centuries. ...

NEW YORK, NY.- Pace is presenting Chuck Close: On Paper at its 540 West 25th Street gallery from March 12 to April 25. Including Close’s heroic large-scale watercolors, Polaroids, drawings, maquettes and prints, this presentation—several years in the making—highlights the many ways in which paper became a primary and influential material in image-making over the course of his career. Since the 1970s, Close has been known for his innovative approach to conceptual portraiture, systematically transposing his subjects’ likenesses from photographs onto gridded paintings and drawings. Over the course of five decades, his work has challenged conventional modes of representation. The artist posed radical propositions with his work, going against the grain of art world trends during the late 1960s and 1970s, when Minimalism, Pop art, and abstraction were dominant, and portraiture and photorealism were largely considered taboo. However, upon closer inspection, his larger-than-life images ar ... More
Giorgio Vasari, Portrait of a Gentleman, c. 1540–1550. Oil on panel, 88 × 64 cm. Genoa, Musei di Strada Nuova – Palazzo Bianco, inv. PB 262.
ROME.- From March 20 to July 19, 2026, Rome takes a step back into the Renaissance with Vasari and Rome, a major exhibition at the Capitoline Museums that explores the deep and transformative relationship between Giorgio Vasari and the city that helped shape him. Housed in Palazzo Caffarelli, the show is more than a retrospective—it’s a narrative journey into the life of a man who was not only a painter and architect, but also the first true historian of art. Through paintings, drawings, letters, and rare documents, visitors are invited to see how Rome became the foundation of Vasari’s artistic identity and the launchpad for his remarkable career. When Vasari first arrived in Rome in 1532, he was still a young artist, traveling in the circle of Cardinal Ippolito de’ Medici. What he found was a city in transition—still bearing the scars of the Sack of 1527, yet alive with creative energy. Rome, at that moment, was a magnet for talent. Artists and thinkers ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- Swivel Gallery and MARC STRAUS announce their inaugural group exhibition, Intro, following the recent merger of the two programs. This first presentation under a unified platform introduces a shared curatorial direction grounded in material rigor, conceptual depth, and a commitment to artists whose practices challenge and expand contemporary discourse across the globe. Bringing together works of Sonia Jia, Kiah Celeste, NH Depass, Edgar Orlaineta, Ioanna Limniou, Amy Bravo, Lucia Hierro, Marek Wolfryd, Alejandro García Contreras, and Frank Holliday, the exhibition unfolds as a collective proposition rather than a singular statement. Across painting, sculpture, installation, and interdisciplinary forms, the artists examine how meaning is constructed through systems of language, material transformation, embodied memory, and the visual codes that structure daily life. Abstraction operates as both a formal strategy and a psychological terrain, whether ... More
Eugenia Apostolou, Τransience (5A), 2024-2026. Oil, gauze and glue on canvas, 44.5 x 30 cm. Courtesy the artist and Kalfayan Galleries.
THESSALONIKI.- Kalfayan Galleries presents the solo exhibition of Eugenia Apostolou, titled “Transience”. “Eugenia Apostolou presents her new solo exhibition Transience, marking her first presentation at Kalfayan Galleries. The exhibition brings together works shaped through recurring transformations of matter, placing process at the centre of the pictorial field. Seriality, the physical act of painting, automatism, conscious gesture and subconscious impulse coexist with a reflective disposition. Apostolou revisits the history of abstraction while developing a practice organised through cycles of deposition, removal and reconfiguration. Transience operates as a central condition throughout the exhibition, as matter and the ideas that animate it remain in continuous states of change. Apostolou’s works recall Elizabeth Grosz’s reflections on time as a force ... More
BILBAO.- The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao presents Ruth Asawa: Retrospective, an ambitious exhibition devoted to an iconic artist, Ruth Aiko Asawa (born Norwalk, California, 1926; died San Francisco, California, 2013) in the year that would have been her 100th birthday. Asawa was one of the most uniquely gifted and productive artists to emerge in the postwar era in the United States. While the appreciation of her work has grown exponentially in the last decade, this international retrospective is the first major museum exhibition to fully consider every aspect of the artist’s exquisite, varied, and groundbreaking practice. Unfolding across ten sections that span the arc of a six-decade-long career, this exhibition traces the full breadth and depth of the innovative practice of Ruth Asawa, who integrated her creative work with all aspects of her life as an artist, ...

Across Booth 1B12, Kabinett, and Encounters EN10, the Manila and New York based gallery articulates a dialogue between historic and current positions, foregrounding formal rigor, material innovation, and critical acuity within an international context.

YONGIN-SI.- The Nam June Paik Art Center opens its doors in 2026 with the exhibition Circuits of Chance. The exhibition has been realized through the longstanding collaboration between the Nam June Paik Art Center and the Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb. It introduces the work of artists primarily from Croatia and explores the points of resonance with Nam June Paik’s art. While Paik’s and Croatian art originate from different places, they unexpectedly resonate, creating new networks and forming a space for feedback. The “New Tendencies” movement, introduced for the first time in Korea, serves as the starting point for this exhibition. Emerging in the early 1960s, New Tendencies (NT, 1961–1973) developed into a dynamic international network of advanced artistic theories and practices. Beginning with the deconstruction of traditional art and bold experimentation with new media, New Tendencies emphasized ... More

Kastler Skjeseth Architects to create Norway's contribution to the Venice Architecture Biennale VENICE.- The National Museum has commissioned the Oslo-based firm Kastler Skjeseth Architects to create Norway’s exhibition for the Nordic Pavilion at the 20th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice next year. Architects Amandine Kastler and Erlend Skjeseth, partners in the practice, have now begun developing the project. Kastler Skjeseth Architects has long been interested in how ideas of the traditional and familiar continue to resurface in Norwegian architecture. Forms, motifs, and elements from the past are repeatedly reinterpreted, often appearing in new roles and unexpected contexts. Their installation in the pavilion will build on this theme, combining contemporary and historical components. The Venice Architecture Biennale is the most influential international platform for architectural discourse. In 2025, it welcomed 298,000 visitors, with young people and students ... More
Betty Woodman's radical ceramics meet Elizabeth Murray's shaped canvases LOS ANGELES, CA.- David Kordansky Gallery is presenting Elizabeth Murray and Betty Woodman, an exhibition representing over three decades of work by the two artists. The exhibition is on view in Los Angeles at 5130 W. Edgewood Pl. from March 19 through April 25, 2026. Bringing together two formidable artists whose work pushed their respective mediums to new heights, Elizabeth Murray and Betty Woodman highlights the duo’s keen ability to reimagine traditional art forms by foregrounding painterly techniques on untraditional surfaces and deconstructing hierarchies between surface and form. Though working in ostensibly different mediums—Woodman in ceramics, Murray in painting—these artists shared a radical vision that collapsed the binary between two- and three-dimensional space. In the case of their wall-mounted paintings and sculptures, ... More
Italian Pavilion at the Biennale Arte 2026 presents Chiara Camoni: Con te con tutto VENICE.- Con te con tutto (With You With Everything) by Chiara Camoni will enliven the spaces of the Italian Pavilion at the 61st International - La Biennale di Venezia, promoted by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity of the Italian Ministry of Culture. The exhibition, curated by Cecilia Canziani, is a call to come together, an invitation to build a different way of being in the world through encountering and sharing with other lifeforms, leaving room for wonder, sentiment, dialogue, contemplation, and the flow of time that transforms everything. The exhibition is comprised of works created specifically for the exhibition and existing works, according to a combinatorial practice of reuse and re-semanticization, already used by the artist and suggested by the very nature of his works. The artist’s familiar materials are joined by new ones: recycled plastics, industrial ... More
rodolphe janssen opens an exhibition of works by Sean Landers BRUSSELS.- The legacy of surrealism has continually wrestled with the limitations of corporeal reality, often questioning the boundaries of consciousness and the nature of its mortality. In the realm of the fantastic, the uncanny occupies an intersection where a sense of the foreboding converges with a feeling of the sublime. For an artist, such a crossroads can punctuate a creative oeuvre; it marks the nexus where one must confront the reality that the work will most often outlive its maker. As a result, the question of legacy becomes a complex terrain an artist must scale, and from this summit, envision a life’s work as a holistic landscape. In the work of Sean Landers, this vantage point has long informed the artist’s own understanding that creative production is indeed a lifelong endeavour. For Landers, forms of autobiography, humour, and confessional voice function as a conceptual substrate for the artist to explore, composing the formal territory in which his recurring motifs can ...

nara roesler opens an exhibition of works by Thiago Barbalho and Antonio Henrique NEW YORK, NY.- The work of two artists from different temporal contexts, Thiago Barbalho (1984) and Antonio Henrique Amaral (1935-2015), are shown together in this exhibition through a curatorial logic of figural counterpoints. Despite their distinct genealogical upbringings, Amaral and Barbalho have, as a common ground, their interest in hybrid figures, oneiric imaginary and a strong recurrence of the organic. Barbalho stands-out amongst the most recent emerging artists in Brazil for his masterful approach of pictorial media (painting, wall painting, sculpture, drawing, installation), capable of featuring minute detail, labor intensive marking as well as ambitious, all-over, complex compositional fields. Antonio Henrique Amaral, a landmark, referential Brazilian artist during the second half of the Twentieth Century is known for his cartoonish but fierce denunciation of the absurdity ... More
