Alexander Gray Associates announces Harmony Hammond solo exhibition Rust Never Sleeps   KAWS and UNIQLO bring art into winter knitwear with new KAWS WINTER collection   New monograph reexamines Lilia Carrillo's place in Mexican modern art


New publication: Still Dangerous! The Harmony Hammond Reader

NEW YORK, NY.- Alexander Gray Associates presents Rust Never Sleeps, the Gallery’s seventh solo exhibition with Harmony Hammond (b. 1944). The show features a selection of large-scale paintings made within the last three years, which continue Hammond’s engagement with and disruption of Minimalist abstraction, imbuing it with latent political content and a charged material presence. Bridging the divide between painting and sculpture, four of the canvases in the exhibition incorporate panels of rusted stamped metal, returning to a material that first entered Hammond’s work in 1988, four years after she moved from New York to New Mexico. Scavenged from dilapidated and abandoned buildings, these rusted passages hold the history of dispossession in the American Southwest, alluding to the severity of rural life and the grit required to survive it. Sharing the picture plane with these weathered overlays, Hammond’s signature ... More
 

KAWS

SYDNEY.- UNIQLO has launched KAWS WINTER, a new knitwear collection created with KAWS, the artist recently named the brand’s first Artist in Residence. The collection marks the first time the longtime collaborators have moved into knitwear, expanding a partnership that has previously focused largely on casual cut-and-sew pieces.

Sweaters, scarves, beanies, gloves and children’s accessories feature the artist’s signature “XX” motif and his well-known COMPANION character, combining the warmth and practicality of UNIQLO LifeWear with the playful energy of KAWS’ art.

The line includes cashmere crew neck sweaters, lambswool sweaters, HEATTECH beanies, scarves ... More
 

Lilia Carrillo: Everything Is Suggestive Hardcover – July 28, 2026

NEW YORK, NY.- Art at Americas Society has announced the release of Lilia Carrillo: Todo es sugerente (Everything Is Suggestive), a new artist monograph published by the Museo del Palacio de Bellas Artes in collaboration with Americas Society. The publication offers a major reassessment of Carrillo, one of the central figures of Mexico’s Generación de la Ruptura, the postwar group of painters who challenged the dominance of Mexican muralism and opened new paths toward abstraction. Born in Mexico City in 1930, Carrillo became one of the most important women artists associated with that movement before her premature death in 1974. Published by the Museo del Palacio de Bellas Artes, one of Mexico’s leading institutions devoted to the preservation, study and exhibition of modern and contemporary Mexican art, the monograph places Carrillo’s work in dialogue with the larger cultural, political and artistic shifts that shaped Mexico in the ...

Derek Eller Gallery announces two-person exhibition with Zachary Leener and Lachlan Hinwood   Camille Henrot's largest Scandinavian solo exhibition opens at Copenhagen Contemporary   Kerlin Gallery opens Siobhán Hapaska solo exhibition The Weight of Nothingness


Zachary Leener, Cadmium voice memo, 2026, glazed terra cotta and steel, 6.75 x 7 x 6.25 inches.

NEW YORK, NY.- Derek Eller Gallery is presenting a two-person exhibition featuring ceramic sculpture by Zachary Leener and paintings by Lachlan Hinwood. Like a reliquary of curious specimens, the works in this show share a meditative quality, an intimacy in scale, and a curvilinear, biomorphic vocabulary. Zachary Leener continues his ongoing search for new archetypal three-dimensional forms, presenting a suite of ceramics with diorama-like arrangements. The recurring typological shape — evoking bassinet, bed, sofa or coffin — becomes a central stage on which the drama unfolds and wherein individuated personalities emerge. It is within these prosceniums that a range of abstract elements are fused in, stuck on, cordoned off and otherwise embedded. The shapes that populate the interior (and in some cases exterior) spaces of the sculptures are both found and newly formed, as Leener mines for his embellishments in an intuitively personal archaeology. Present in this arrangement are freshly glaze ... More

COPENHAGEN.- On 5 June, Copenhagen Contemporary opens Paper Planes – Camille Henrot’s largest solo exhibition in Scandinavia to date. Henrot is one of the world's most influential contemporary artists, with a practice spanning film, painting, bronze, drawing, sculpture and installation. Central to the exhibition is the Scandinavian premiere of Henrot’s new film In the Veins – already deemed "an instant classic" by Art in America – alongside major installations spanning the last ten years of her practice and a selection of new works in sculpture and drawing. With Paper Planes, Henrot's work looks to the possibilities of counterfactual, non-linear thinking as a way of coping with contemporary existence. In the hands of a child, a piece of paper is never just paper – it is a bird, a map, a weapon, a plane. This is not naïveté but a different mode of processing: open, risk-taking, alive to potentialities that experience and societal codes have not yet ruled out. It is a ca ... More
 

Siobhán Hapaska, The man with a stone in his stomach inverts sunflowers,2026, aluminium, Jesmonite, wood, epoxy resin, 200 x 110 x 85 cm.

DUBLIN.- Kerlin Gallery opened The Weight of Nothingness, an exhibition of new sculpture and photography by Siobhán Hapaska that explores absence as a material and as a psychological condition. In The man with a stone in his stomach inverts sunflowers. a lone figure stands on a makeshift plinth. Their core is hollowed out and filled with a stone, the identity is obscured or they are without one. The darkened skeletal framework is a precarious one, simultaneously devotional and exhausted, its offering of inverted blue sunflowers are denied their upright sunny, optimistic disposition. There is a heavy stone, a weight of nothingness at its core. Surrounding the central figure is a new series of wall-mounted sculptures meticulously constructed from twisted concrete cloth with resin and Jesmonite. Concrete cloth — a material associated with reinforcement and containment — is manipulated by Hapaska into forms that appear bodily. Each work has its own glass like forms escaping from the folds ...

RICHMOND, VA.- The ICA at VCU presents the Southeastern debut of Abigail DeVille’s Deo Vindice (Orion’s Cabinet) (2025), an immersive, gallery-sized installation that recalls the burning of Richmond in 1865. The exhibition, running June 5 through August 18, 2026, includes a sweeping assemblage of charred Colonial-style cabinets, inspired by photographs of Richmond set ablaze in the last days of the Civil War. Deo Vindice was commissioned for the recent critically acclaimed MONUMENTS exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, a collaboration with The Brick. During the Great Migration, Abigail DeVille’s family moved north from Richmond, living in New York City’s Harlem before moving to the Bronx in the 1950s. Throughout her career, DeVille has closely studied overlooked and buried Black American histories, retelling and reclaiming them through powerful installations that place historical events within a broader context. “In the ...

Mirdidingkingathi Juwarnda Sally Gabori, Kombali, 2008. Acrylic on linen, 53¾ × 47⅞ in. © Sally Gabori/Copyright Agency, 2026.

LOS ANGELES, CA.- Mirdidingkingathi Juwarnda Sally Gabori (b. c. 1924; d. 2015) transformed memories of her birthplace—Bentinck Island, Australia—into gestural, textured abstractions. She began painting in 2005 around the age of eighty one, spending the last decade of her life making prismastic compositions that radically expand the landscape genre. Gabori and the rest of the Aboriginal Kaiadilt population had been dispossessed of their home in 1948; from Mornington Island, the site of their displacement, she retraced the emotional and topographical contours of Bentinck—in her words, “a story place out to sea.” Gabori’s approach evokes the concept of chorography: locales described through their qualities rather than quantitatively measured, an art of place. This sensibility situates her in a contemporary lineage of painters who treat the landscape expressionistically, using the tools of abstraction to convey the intertwined affective ... More
 

Kenjiro Okazaki, The Origin of Geometry Sed et lamiae nudaverunt mammam, lactaverunt catulos suos; filia populi mei crudelis quasi struthio in deserto Howiesons Poort Ostrich Eggshell, 2026. Acrylic on canvas, 25.2 cm × 18.3 cm. © Kenjiro Okazaki, courtesy Pace Gallery.

LONDON.- Pace will present Kenjiro Okazaki’s first-ever solo exhibition in the UK at its London gallery from June 5 to August 7. Titled Never could be any other way — anagnorisis, the presentation brings together sculptures, large-scale paintings, and a selection of the artist’s delicately framed Zero Thumbnail series. The first part of the exhibition’s title, “Never could be any other way,” is the phrase inscribed in the run-out groove of The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967), buried in the infinite loop after “A Day in the Life.” The second part, anagnorisis (ἀναγνώρισις), is Aristotle’s term from the Poetics for the moment of tragic recognition — the retroactive discovery that what has happened could only have happened this way. Both name the same structure, which is the central thesis of Okazaki’s forthcoming book The Discovery of Art: ... More

Sadie Coles HQ presents Helen Marten's five-chapter film This Weather
LONDON.- Helen Marten presents This Weather, a film in five chapters, at Sadie Coles HQ. Originally conceived as part of Marten’s ambitious opera performance, 30 Blizzards., presented by Miu Miu at Palais d’Iéna for Art Basel Paris in October 2025, This Weather is restaged here as a singular work. Each of the five new chapters of This Weather references an underlying sequence of symbolic roles from youth to older age, detailed through successional chapters: childhood, community, sexuality, interiority, loss. Five distinct monologues form crucial narrative threads, all instilled with their own temperament, a unique, emotional weather. These monologues are voiced by women, but they are not literal representations, rather they mark a space for metaphor, translation and plurality. The “mother”, for instance, speaks suggestively to an atmosphere of care, ... More

Kate MacGarry gallery hosts Mark Corfield-Moore's first solo exhibition
LONDON.- Kate MacGarry presents Swan Song, Mark Corfield-Moore’s first solo exhibition at the gallery, featuring a new body of work that continues the artist’s experimentation at the intersection of painting, weaving and storytelling. Centred on ideas of transience, transition and uncertainty, these works extend Corfield-Moore’s reinterpretation of traditional ikat weaving techniques, refined during his time in Thailand. Rather than resist-dyeing threads, the artist paints directly onto the unwoven fibres so that, when warp and weft meet, the image is already mid-transformation, fracturing and shifting into a glitchy visual disruption. Drawing on the poetic potential of language, the phrases that feature in each work prompt states of partial understanding. These are filtered through the lens of Corfield-Moore’s experience as part of the Thai-British diaspora and its cultural ... More

Mandy El-Sayegh explores luxury, consumerism and unrest in London exhibition
LONDON.- Thaddaeus Ropac London is presenting Jewel Tones, an immersive, site-specific exhibition by Mandy El-Sayegh, coinciding with London Gallery Weekend. Featuring a new body of paintings, installation and performance, the exhibition explores the machinations of consumerism and perceptions of luxury in the contemporary world. Known for her use of print and digital media as source material, El-Sayegh has in recent years created works that examine the collision of dissonant realities in published matter: between the reportage of violent geopolitical events on the one hand, and the promotion of luxury goods on the other. These juxtapositions appear side by side in the newspapers she collects, collages and silkscreens into her paintings, where advertisements for diamonds sit next to headlines reporting on unfolding wars and humanitarian crises. Through ... More

Three women take centre stage at Canterbury Cathedral this summer
CANTERBURY.- This summer, an entire programme of events, talks and activities will focus on the women that have shaped Canterbury Cathedral, both past and present. At the beginning of 2026 Dame Sarah Mullally was appointed as the 106th Archbishop of Canterbury - the first woman ever to hold this position. This continues a tradition of influential women who have been connected to the Cathedral and the wider city, including Queen Bertha of Kent in the 6th century and Elizabeth I during Tudor England. And now a summer holiday programme - for families and anyone interested in history, Christianity and influential women – is being held at Canterbury Cathedral to introduce and celebrate the significant female figures linked to its history. Without Queen Bertha (c.539 – c.612) there might not even be a Canterbury Cathedral, which has now stood for almost ... More
