NEW YORK, NY.- The Museum of Modern Art presents The Surrealist Book: Tomorrow Lives in Mirrors, an exhibition showcasing the propulsive impact of artists’ books—books made as works of art—within the Surrealist movement. For the artists and writers associated with Surrealism, the book was an ideal vehicle for subversive experimentation and the promotion of their revolutionary tenets. Working collaboratively to unlock the unconscious, they transformed the bound volume into a provocative new art form, an enchanted portal to the unexpected, the irrational, and, what they called, the “marvelous.” On view at MoMA from October 4, 2026, through January 23, 2027, The Surrealist Book features a selection of rare volumes produced by Surrealism’s most imaginative artists and writers, including André Breton, Claude Cahun, Salvador Dalí, Paul Éluard, Max Ernst, and Toyen. The exhibition is organized by Jodi Hauptman, The Robert Lehman Foundation Chief Curator of Drawings and Prints, ... More
FORT WORTH, TX.- The Kimbell Art Museum will present the special exhibition Photography’s First Century: Masterworks from the Bibliothèque nationale de France from October 4, 2026, through January 17, 2027, in the Renzo Piano Pavilion. The Kimbell’s first-ever photography exhibition, it will trace the history of photography’s first one hundred years of exploration and discovery, from the rise of the daguerreotype and the calotype in the 1840s to the age of modernism between the World Wars. Organized in conjunction with France’s national library in Paris in celebration of the bicentennial of photography’s invention, this survey of more than 150 images includes work by Henri Le Secq, Gustave le Gray, Félix Tournachon (Nadar), Édouard Baldus, Louis-Émile Durandelle, Eugène Atget, André Kertesz, Rogi André, Man Ray, and Brassaï. ...

Caetlynn Booth, Environmental Viewing Space (Long Distance), 2026. Oil on panel, 48 x 36 inches.
RIDGEWOOD, NY .- Apartment Gallery is presenting Two Currents, a two-person exhibition featuring new and recent paintings by Caetlynn Booth and Giordanne Salley. Grounded in their shared geography and the supportive artistic community of Ridgewood, Queens, the exhibition brings their distinct practices into direct conversation, exploring an experiential vision of water, memory, and time. Additionally, the exhibition features furniture and lighting by Johannesburg-founded design studio Dokter and Misses, alongside ceramic sculpture by Michael Dickey. Emanuel Swedenborg wrote, “Love, in its essence, is spiritual fire.”
For years, I have come to understand that making my work is how I love the world—a passionate, spiritual fire burning beneath the practice of synthesizing memories of color, place, and lucid dreams. In early 2025, seeking a deeper connection with artists in Ridgewood, the neighborhood I have called ... More
The first digital image, or rather, the first photograph with pixels. A scanned image of Walden, the son of the inventor Russell Kirsch, 1957.
LE LOCLE.- For the autumn 2026 season, marking the Bicentenary of Photography, the MBAL is delighted to present the exhibition The First Photos. Until Proven Otherwise. This project, led by curator and artist Francesca Seravalle, is centred on the study of the earliest photographs. From this perspective, each ‘first photograph’ acts as the tip of an iceberg, an intriguing story that seeps into the mind, prompting deep reflection on the medium. Far from being merely an archiving criterion, the concept of the ‘first photograph’ represents a performative approach to the origins of photography. The aim is to recapture the authentic aura of that primordial moment in a society where the single image is under threat from the overabundance of photographic output. As it captures an inaugural experience, every ‘first’ possesses an epiphanic quality and becomes a milestone in the ... More
Wayne Thiebaud (1920-2021), Coastal Farms, oil on canvas, 24 x 24 in. (61 x 61 cm.) Painted in 1997, Price Realized: $1,856,000.
NEW YORK, NY.- Christie's fall auction season was inaugurated with the Post-War to Present sale on October 1st, which totaled $28 million and saw spirited bidding on works by established twentieth-century names and leading Contemporary voices. The energetic participation in the saleroom started with lot one, Anni Albers's Study for B, a rare work on paper that reset the artist's world auction record, selling for $166,400. The enthusiasm produced standout results, including Judy Chicago's Pasadena Lifesavers Blue Series #5, which set a new benchmark for the artist's market at auction, selling for $486,400, a vibrant painting by Gerhard Richter, Fuji, which set a record for the series, selling for $1,152,000, and a luminous installation work by Anicka Yi, which now holds the artist's world record. Overall, the sale was 81% sold by value and 86% by its low estimate. The top lot of the sale was Coastal Farms, a River Delta landscape ... More
Kibong Rhee, Mistygraphy, 2024. Acrylic and polyester fiber on canvas, 94 3/4 x 73 3/8 in. 240.7 x 186.4 cm.
NEW YORK, NY.- Tina Kim Gallery announced There is no place, a solo exhibition of new works by Kibong Rhee on view from October 3rd to November 2nd. It marks the artist’s second solo show at the gallery following his New York debut in 2011. Since the 1980s, Rhee has consistently explored in his practice the interconnectedness of the world, specifically cycles of creation, dissolution, and regeneration, as well as the dynamic interplay between matter and spirit. Probing the meanings that emerge within these structures, he captures the coexistence of multiple realms and makes abstract concepts tangible. His works visually combine natural phenomena such as light, wind, water, and foam with the mechanical to evoke sensorial contemplation of the immaterial world that lies beyond perception. The relationships between disappearance and impermanence, and presence and absence are particularly central to his long-standing practice. Although Rhee worked primarily with ... More
STOCKHOLM.- Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian (1922–2019) lived and worked in Tehran and New York at different times – two cities that came to shape her artistic career in different ways. Her art is characterised by geometric abstraction, reflective materials and the forms of the vegetable kingdom. All with influences from Iran’s rich visual culture and deep historical roots as well as post-war modernist movements. The exhibition presents the artist’s most famous works – the kaleidoscopic mirror mosaics – but also shows her breadth, including calligraphic drawings and collages. Today, Shahroudy Farmanfarmaianis regarded as one of Iran’s most influential artists and holds an established place in global modernism and contemporary art history. This is the first solo exhibition of her work in the Nordic countries. The exhibition is organised by Moderna Museet, Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid, and Kunstmuseum Den Haag. From Moderna ... More
PARIS.- What happens when love is understood not only as a relationship between people, but as something that also binds humanity to the natural world? That question sits at the heart of Garden of Love, a new exhibition at Jeanne Bucher Jaeger in Paris, on view from October 3 through December 19, 2026. Guest-curated by philosopher, art historian and exhibition curator Guillaume Logé, the show takes its title and inspiration from his forthcoming book Garden of Love, published by Citadelles & Mazenod. Bringing together ancient art, modern masters and contemporary artists, the exhibition considers the garden as both a physical place and a state of mind — a space where love, memory, ecology and imagination meet. For Logé, the garden offers a way to rethink love at a moment when both human relationships and humanity’s relationship with nature are undergoing profound change. The exhibition moves beyond the idea of love as an exclusively human exchange ... More
The Kiss, 1967-68. Hand colored intaglio, 22 7/8 x 15 inches; 58.1 x 38.1 centimeters.
WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA.- Louis Stern Fine Arts presents Ynez Johnston: In Search of the Oracle. This exhibition explores the enduring allure of Johnston’s (1920-2019) innovative artmaking practice, which spanned seven decades of painting, drawing, printmaking, and sculpture. Her captivating visual language evolved from an amalgamation of ancient and modern cross-cultural influences, emerging as a fully-fledged chimerical phenomenon all its own that was immutably tethered to her strange and romantic inner life. A Berkeley, CA native, Johnston found early success at age 22 with her first solo museum exhibition at the San Francisco Museum of Art (now SFMOMA). Her inclusion in a three-person New Talent exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York made a name for her on the East Coast in 1950; meanwhile, she was establishing herself as a unique voice in the burgeoning Los Angeles art scene. Johnston’s ... More
Kateryna Lysovenko.
HELSINGBORG.- The Ukrainian artist, Kateryna Lysovenko, explores the trauma and vulnerability caused by conflict through her large, vibrant paintings. With exhibitions across Europe, her work has gained more and more attention, culminating in her largest solo exhibition to date at Helsingborgs konsthall on October 3. "Currently, my art examines who is considered human and who is not, delving into dehumanization. Understanding dehumanization is crucial for ending war and oppression. I love dissolving the boundaries between nature and civilization, between animal and human, and liberating us from hierarchies," explains Kateryna Lysovenko. The exhibition title, Allt är möjligt ("Anything is possible"), can be interpreted in two ways, as a warning of worse to come, or the hope that we can shape a better tomorrow. Sign up here for the press preview attended by the artist on October 1 at 10:00 AM at Dunkers Kulturhus. This summer, Kateryna Lysovenko displa ... More
KASSEL.- In his new body of work Hostless, Mohammed Sami focuses predominantly on internal spaces. The paintings become a site for mnemonic processes, mental operations in which abstraction falters and something unsettling begins to seep through. Rooms become spectral containers, holding the residue of events that agreed to stay unnamed despite of the availability of the crime evidence. These interiors are literal in their unease yet evasive in meaning, trembling with a physicality that painting, as a practice, refuses to fully define or contain. Objects behave as floating signifiers, denoting an absent violence or a memory made consumable only through distance. The formal language in his new paintings allow the ‘horror’ to become an optional element for viewers, not performed, but quietly endured, revealed through the stubborn materiality of what remains. The Fridericianum presents the first institutional exhibition of Sami’s ... More
Installation view Kunst Hand Werk Brücke, Haus Lange 2026, Photo: Dirk Rose.
KREFELD.- With Kunst Hand Werk Brücke, the Kunstmuseen Krefeld, will for the first time in the Rhineland, turn the spotlight on a lesser-known and little-researched aspect of the artistic practice of the Expressionist group Brücke: their work in the applied arts. On view at Haus Lange from October 4, 2026 until March 7, 2027, the exhibition shows clearly that Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, Erich Heckel and Max Pechstein were far more than painters and printmakers. Furniture, jewellery, home textiles, frames, everyday objects and stationery all testify to their ambition to bring art and everyday life together as an inseparable unit. It is now clear that the applied arts were not a peripheral concern for the – especially known as painters – Brücke artists, but an expression of a comprehensive artistic vision. In their experimental work with wood, metal and textiles, they developed the same radical visual language that made their paintings and prints world-famous. The exhib ... More

ZWOLLE.- Flowers bloom, colors shift and digital organisms appear and disappear in response to the people moving through them in Digital by Nature, a major exhibition devoted to French artist Miguel Chevalier at Museum de Fundatie. The exhibition brings together nearly 120 works and is the largest survey of Chevalier’s work in Europe to date. It is also his first major solo exhibition in the Netherlands. Chevalier, widely regarded as a pioneer of digital art, has spent more than four decades exploring the possibilities of computers as an artistic medium. Rather than using technology simply as a tool, he treats it as a creative partner, establishing rules, colors and forms while allowing algorithms to introduce unpredictability and change. That approach is most visible in four large interactive installations at the center of the exhibition. As visitors move through the galleries, their presence alters the images around them. Patterns shift, digital forms grow and dissolve, and colors change ... More

Galerie Édouard-Manet opens 'Bert Theis: Utopies situées' in Gennevilliers GENNEVILLIERS.- Galerie Édouard-Manet announced the opening of the exhibition Bert Theis: Utopies situées at the Gennevilliers art center. During a period marked by large-scale construction and property development projects in the second half of the twentieth century, artist Bert Theis (1952–2016) developed his practice at the intersection of activism, urban planning, and contemporary art networks. “Known for a body of work marked by its social and environmental commitment, Bert Theis (Luxembourg, 1952–2016) established himself on the international scene in the 1990s as one of the leading figures of a generation of artists who opened up new perspectives on the way we think about public space. Throughout his career, he combined a conceptual and philosophical approach with site-specific and contextual interventions, creating ... More
Zander Galerie Paris presents focused installation of fire paintings by Joe Goode PARIS.- Zander Galerie Paris is presenting a focused installation of two fire paintings by American artist Joe Goode (1937-2025). Created between 1982 and 2015, both works belong to the artist’s celebrated Forest Fire series, inspired by the dramatic skies and smoke of a devastating wildfire in California. Marking a pivotal moment in Goode’s career, these paintings reflect his enduring exploration of perception and the natural world, while revealing a deeply poetic response to one of nature’s most powerful and transformative forces. Born in Oklahoma City in 1937, Joe Goode was a leading figure of the post-war Californian art scene. He moved to Los Angeles in 1959 to study at the Chouinard Art Institute, where he joined a generation of artists who challenged the legacy of Abstract Expressionism by turning their attention to the visual experience of everyday ...

Nelson-Atkins photography exhibition highlights Joel Sternfeld's American Prospects KANSAS CITY, MO.- Photographer Joel Sternfeld will visit The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art this October following the opening of a special exhibition featuring his work. American Prospects and Landscape Photography, 1839 to Today, presents 80 works that explore our ever-changing relationship with the natural world. Color photographs from Sternfeld’s influential series American Prospects, a classic record of 1980s America, serve as the focal point for this exhibition, which considers the rich and varied history of landscape photography from the medium’s invention to the present. “Joel Sternfeld pictured the American landscape with humor, compassion, and an eye for serendipitous encounters,” said Julián Zugazagoitia, Director & CEO of the Nelson-Atkins. “This exhibition marks the first time that Sternfeld’s photographs, given to the museum as a gift of Peggy ...

John Warn's exceptional mineral collection comes to Heritage Auctions DALLAS, TX.- An extraordinary collection of fine and rare minerals, assembled over a lifetime by a celebrated mineral enthusiast, credentialed geologist and well-known discoverer, will find its way into new collections when Heritage presents The John Warn Collection Fine Minerals Signature® Auction Oct. 17. As a young boy in the 1940s and 1950s, Warn and his family would take annual summer trips to Glacier National Park, ventures on which his father introduced him to geological collecting. Those treks to the stunning park in Montana, about 45 miles south of the Canadian border, spawned a curiosity that morphed into a lifetime of study and eager pursuit. “John Warn built a very impressive collection, and Heritage Auctions could not be more proud to bring it to market, to share some of John’s treasures with serious collectors of fine minerals,” says Nic ...

University Art Museum presents site-specific sculpture by Howard Schwartzberg in triple-exhibition launch ALBANY, NY.- The University Art Museum announces three new exhibitions: Howard Schwartzberg: Volume, Surface, Core in the first floor main gallery; mosie romney: ash, whistle & redress in the second floor main gallery; and Invitation to the Light Factory | Suzan Frecon & Marcella Durand in the Nancy Hyatt Liddle Gallery and the Collections Study Gallery. Schwartzberg reconfigures painting’s constituent materials—paint, canvas, wooden stretcher bars—to create new spatial and perceptual relationships. Exploring traditional painterly ideas of support and surface, as well as illusion, his three-dimensional forms appear as volumes of paint, cradled in burlap or resting on layers of canvas and wood. Viewers can move through Orange Slice (2026), a newly-commissioned, nine-foot-high, site-specific sculpture at the center of the museum, and become ... More
GAK Gesellschaft für Aktuelle Kunst Bremen opens 'if words are to be sounded' BREMEN.- if words are to be sounded is a joint exhibition project that explores language as a performative medium of the imaginary. The exhibition first opened this summer at CAP • Saint-Fons, and now the second installment opened on October 2, 2026 at GAK Gesellschaft für Aktuelle Kunst Bremen. The final installment will open at Le 19, Crac Montbéliard in the spring of 2027. The project emerges out of a close exchange between our three French and German institutions, initiated in 2024 and driven by our shared interest in the diverse forms and circulations of the concept of 'value.' Our dialogue has unfolded against a backdrop of mounting pressure and divisions imposed upon languages—forces that constantly challenge our relationship with words, whether of the past or in the present. The starting point for the exhibition if words are to be sounded ... More
Adams and Ollman presents US debut of UK-based Japanese artist Tomoya Matsuzaki PORTLAND, ORE.- Adams and Ollman is presenting the first solo exhibition of the U.K.-based Japanese artist, Tomoya Matsuzaki, in the United States. The exhibition includes new wall-based paintings on irregularly shaped panels combined with found objects, as well as a selection of pastel drawings on found paper. A number of Matsuzaki's recent works include the term “bascule” in their titles. Most commonly, this refers to a seesaw dynamic exploited by structures including the numerous bridges to be found near Matsuzaki's studio in east London. In another sense, “bascule” can describe the gracefully arced form of a horse as it leaps over a barrier: a form as perfect as there is to be found in nature, and a familiar enough subject among painters in Britain, where the artist has lived since the late 1990s. The carefully articulated forms which animate ... More
Kunstmuseum St.Gallen opens 'Beyond the Manosphere' ST.GALLEN.- The Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and Kunstmuseum St.Gallen present Beyond the Manosphere. Masculinities Today, an international group exhibition unfolding in two distinct versions across the two museums. Having opened in the spring at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (April 17–August 2, 2026), it will now run from fall through winter at Kunstmuseum St.Gallen (October 3, 2026–January 24, 2027). What does masculinity mean today? This question has gained renewed urgency with the rise of the “manosphere”, a loose network of online spaces where a dominant, misogynistic masculinity is asserted that, to many, feels threatening. Fuelled by the spread of Trumpism, this brand of masculinity has become increasingly mainstream—its ascendancy being defined, in some quarters, as progress—and been mobilized to capitalist and fascist ends. ...

Vleeshal presents Tuấn Andrew Nguyễn's sculptures made from salvaged artillery casings MIDDELBURG.- Tuấn Andrew Nguyễn transforms 57mm artillery casings, salvaged from the fields of Quảng Trị, Vietnam, into sculptures that suspend histories of war in states of balance and flow. The work echoes the kinetic sculpture of American artist Alexander Calder, who spoke out against the Vietnam War when doing so was deeply controversial. This connection unfolds further in Nguyễn’s fiction film, The Unburied Sounds of a Troubled Horizon. War also reverberates through Vleeshal itself. Vleeshal and Middelburg’s Stadhuis were heavily bombed during the Second World War. An etched commemorative grenade recalling this history is presented alongside ornamental grenades from across Zeeland, gathered through an open call. At the exhibition’s center, Nguyễn’s sculpture is tuned to 685 Hz—a frequency associated with Buddhist traditions ... More
Uppsala Art Museum presents Eija-Liisa Ahtila retrospective 'A Possible Image' UPPSALA.- Life is seething and bustling. Birdsong, the wind in the spruce forest and budding leaves are followed by the first snow of winter that wraps the landscape in muffling moistness. In A Possible Image—of what is just becoming reality Eija-Liisa Ahtila opens the door to a cinematic universe of relationships between man and animal, feelings and reflections on the variability of Nordic nature. The exhibition at Uppsala Art Museum consists of grand cinematic installations from the period 2018–2025: Potentiality for Love, Reflection of a Forest and April ≈ 61°01’ 24°27’. They are presented in connection with the production of the artist’s first public work Ulleråker Madonna, commissioned for a park in Ulleråker, the former psychiatric hospital area in Uppsala. Eija-Liisa Ahtila has been called a master of cinematic installation. With this exhibition, she embarks on her fourth ... More
