NEW YORK, NY.-Scholten Japanese Art announced their gallery presentation, STERLING: 25 Years in New York, celebrating our ‘silver’ anniversary during Asia Week New York 2026. Having passed the quarter-century mark, we assembled this exhibition mindful of our own history as we look back on our previous 90 exhibitions and 9 publications, with at least 7,000 works sold to over 50 museums and countless thousands of collectors, while also contemplating the direction of future possibilities. The exhibition will present a selection of works reflecting our continuing commitment to exploring the intertwining development of Japanese woodblock prints from the early to mid-20th century by artists who designed shin-hanga (lit. ‘new prints’) and sosaku hanga (lit. ‘creative prints’), while expanding our collective understanding of the art and artists who contributed to this field. ...

NEW YORK, NY.- Norman Foster. Networks offers a rare first-person insight into the ideas, influences, and connections that have shaped one of the world’s greatest architects. Penned and curated by Foster himself, it brings together eight immersive essays in which he explores architecture not as a professional pursuit, but a nexus of passions, disciplines, and lived experience. In Roots, Foster examines his modest start in Manchester alongside his lifelong fascination with aviation, tracing the formative threads that underpin his work. Flight emerges as both obsession and metaphor, informing his pursuit of lightness, efficiency, and technical elegance. His deep attachment to the Alpine landscape—where he lives in a self-designed home of the future—reveals how place, climate, and topography continue to shape his thinking. Nature, Art, and Making are explored as essential creative partners to his architectural practice. The essays on Place and Cities widen the lens, ... More

HASSELT.- The act of looking is never neutral. What we choose to see, and what we avert our eyes from, says something about us. The exhibition Before Our Eyes explores how ten (inter)national artists question and navigate this responsibility. Their work responds to the political events of our time, with particular attention to the genocidal violence in Palestine, through images that take a stand or call for reflection. For how can artists address the violence? Not by simply showing it again, but by carefully choosing what to make visible—and what to withhold. The first work in the exhibition—a silent film by Angharad Williams—shows a close-up of the artist’s face. Her eyes rest beside the camera; what she sees remains out of frame. Her lips move, but her words are inaudible. The film reflects on the relationship between seeing and speaking: can we speak about what we see, and do our words not fall short? Rabih Mroué also questions ... More
LONDON.- The Symptomatic Surreal will be the first institutional exhibition dedicated to Leonora Carrington’s drawings from her Santander sketchbooks, offering a unique vantage point from which to reconsider the artist’s wartime output. British-born Mexican artist Leonora Carrington (1917–2011) is one of the most celebrated figures associated with Surrealism. She was a painter, novelist, and visionary whose sustained enquiry into the psyche informed her interests in mythology, psychology, alchemy, tarot, and other esoteric traditions. Told through her sketchbook drawings and letters from 1938 to 1941 prior to her permanent emigration to Mexico, this exhibition follows Carrington’s flight from Nazi occupied France, her hospitalisation in Sanatorium Morales in Santander, Spain, and her journey through Madrid to New York, where she was reunited with the Surrealists ...

Warren Neidich From the Society of the Spectacle to the Consciousness Industry (2022) Aad Hoogendoorn
ROTTERDAM.- 'Psychedelic' is more than a state of expanded consciousness induced by substances. The dark side of our society - conspiracies, violence and oppression - can feel hallucinatory too. It can shrink our world. AUTONOMOUS brings the activist potential of neurodiversity to life: thinking differently as liberation. AUTONOMOUS is a psychedelic journey comprising an exhibition and a public festival. Large-scale installations, immersive videos, contemplative artworks and interactive experiences set the tone. Across three chapters - Cognitive Capitalism, Y'all got ADHD, and Psychedelic Pathways - visitors gain access to multiple realities. The first section, Cognitive Capitalism, points to a computer-driven form of hyper-capitalism in which we humans are not only producers and consumers, but also raw material. Our data are ground down into building blocks for algorithms that operate ever more independently. The next step is our brains being programmed by the very technologies ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- Thaddaeus Ropac announced representation of Martha Diamond (1944–2023). Over more than sixty years, Diamond developed a distinctive body of work that engages with the language and ideas of abstraction, reflecting her grounding in the experimental energy of the avant-garde movements that surrounded her in her native New York in the second half of the 20th century. Reimagining the tradition of landscape painting for a modern metropolis, Diamond’s works capture both the velocity and the formal beauty of the urban world. Thaddaeus Ropac gallery will work with the Martha Diamond Trust alongside David Kordansky gallery. Technically speaking, Martha’s paintings are up there with the best painters of the time. The paint strokes in her works achieve a sense of tone that can go up against anybody. And on top of that, the imagery is incredibly ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- In 2023 MoMA became the singular repository of the work of Ken Jacobs (1933–2025), one of the great moving-image artists of the 20th and 21st centuries, when it acquired more than 200 of his films and videos spanning more than 60 years. Now, to kick off The Whole Shebang: Celebrating Ken & Flo Jacobs, a citywide celebration of Jacobs’s work throughout the month of April, MoMA presents a weeklong run of his magnum opus, Star Spangled to Death (1957–2004). This special open-door screening allows visitors to enjoy the six-and-a-half-hour film at their leisure during the Museum’s regular opening hours. Ken Jacobs credited his discovery of the movies to his youthful trips to MoMA in the late 1940s, recalling, “The Museum of Modern Art plunged me, when a teenager, into the unexpectedness of art.” In the decades since, MoMA has presented Jacobs’s moving- ...

Sihan Chen debuts at König Galerie: A fluorescent pink diary of repetition and form BERLIN.- König Galerie is presenting a solo exhibition by Sihan Chen, on view in the Chapel of St. Agnes. This marks the artist’s first exhibition with the gallery. Point by point, precisely placed, the figure of a horse takes shape on fluorescent pink cardboard. Surrounded by black, star-like forms, these finely executed drawings were the first works by Sihan Chen that I was able to see. The voluntary restriction to two colors—black and a luminous pink as the background—with the horse as the central motif, combined with other elements drawn from nature such as stars and trees, struck me as a radically self-imposed task. The restraint in the choice of subject and the determined reduction to a high-contrast combination of two colors in no way signify a limitation of her artistic expression. On the contrary. In her painterly works, the horse as a figure is mirrored, fragmented, appears ... More

Fairfield University professor creates immersive 'Pause' installation in India FAIRFIELD, CONN.- For more than three decades, professor of visual & performing arts Jo Yarrington has taught studio art at the John Charles Meditz College of Arts and Sciences, guiding students through printmaking, book arts, drawing, and capstone seminars. Alongside her teaching, her work as a professional artist has focused on these media as well as mixed-media installations. In Dec. 2025, her creative work took on a new scale, the culmination of a yearlong sabbatical in India. As an invited artist at the Serendipity Arts Festival in Goa, India, Yarrington created the site-referential installation PAUSE, an immersive, walk-through meditation of light, sound, and textile. Visitors moved through yards of white muslin suspended from scaffold-like frames, sunlight filtering through hand-printed patterns inspired by a century-old piano roll. Four sound boxes— ... More
