NEW YORK, NY.- The Morgan Library & Museum will present Tarot! Renaissance Symbols, Modern Visions, an exhibition in two parts that explores the origins of tarot in Renaissance Italy and its contemporary relevance as an enduring source of inspiration for twentieth- and twenty-first-century artists. The first part, Renaissance Symbols, focuses on the earliest surviving tarot decks from the fifteenth century, examining the rich court culture from which the cards emerged, the development of the cards’ imagery, and how that imagery became the basis for later divination practices. The second part, Modern Visions, traces artists’ engagement with tarot imagery during four distinct historical moments in which the occult assumed greater prominence within the larger culture, culminating in a new commission by renowned contemporary artist Chris Ofili. The exhibition will be on view from June 26 through October 4, 2026. The impetus for this exhibition was the Morgan’s Visconti-Sforza Tarot cards, ... More

VIENNA.- Op Art works are designed to set viewers’ eyes in motion—it is an art style that seeks to challenge the sense of sight in a very special way, calling for no prior knowledge, and being spontaneously experienceable. It established itself in America and Europe in the mid-1960s. Fascinated by the physical laws of light and optics, an entire generation of artists devoted themselves to the study of optical phenomena and the fundamentals of perception. While Op Art has fallen somewhat into obscurity over the decades, it remains a revolutionary art born from a revolutionary era. It was from the 1950s that Victor Vasarely and Marc Adrian put our vision to the test with optical effects. The bold colors of Vasarely’s strictly geometric patterns, as well as the stark contrasts of his black-and-white paintings continue to inform the aesthetics of painting and design today. The depiction of movement in art is also the central subject matter of Marc Adrian, nearly a quarter-century you ... More

BRUSSELS.- This summer, as part of the Bozar Monumental series, internationally renowned artist Delcy Morelos (b. 1967, Tierralta, Colombia) creates a new large-scale installation for Bozar’s Horta Hall. Drawing upon indigenous knowledge from her native country, Delcy Morelos creates emotionally charged artworks that speak to visitors through many senses. Shown for the first time in Brussels, Morelos’ monumental work is freely accessible at the heart of Bozar – Centre for Fine Arts of Brussels, from 28 June to 30 August 2026. For this monumental multisensory installation, Morelos draws on mud-and-timber and wattle-and-daub, ancient techniques used in South and North America, Africa and Central Europe. Morelos’ practice is rooted in a desire to restore connections between humans and their environment: “For me, matter is alive” she says, “Earth produces and nurtures life; it is not inert”. And she adds: “I want people ... More
LOS ANGELES, CA.- The Los Angeles County Museum of Art presents Fashioning Chinese Women: Empire to Modernity. The exhibition charts the evolution of Chinese women’s dress, from loose-fitting embroidered robes of the late Qing Dynasty to the iconic sleek silhouettes of 1930s qipao to the global style of 1950s cheongsam.

HERNANI.- Chillida Leku has opened Geometric Bodies, an exhibition dedicated to the use of geometric volumes throughout Eduardo Chillida’s artistic career. Bringing together works from different stages of the artist’s production, the exhibition explores how Chillida employed geometric forms as a recurring formal and conceptual resource. From his figurative plaster sculptures of the late 1940s to his later architectural-scale projects characterised by greater formal synthesis and a public dimension, the exhibition reveals how geometric bodies served as a vehicle for investigating space, matter and form. Within this framework, the sphere and the cube emerge as recurring motifs that generate distinct fields of meaning throughout the exhibition. Geometric Bodies also inaugurates a new exhibition format at Chillida Leku, incorporating the participation of two invited artists, each represented by a single work. Their contributions are integrated into the exhibition itinerary ... More
ROME.- There was a moment in the 20th century when Rome was no longer only the Eternal City. It became a movie set, a runway, a laboratory of style, and one of the places where the myth of Made in Italy took shape before the eyes of the world. That moment is at the heart of Moda in Luce 1955-1975. Roma fra glamour e innovazione industriale, a major photographic, multimedia, and fashion exhibition opening at the Musei Capitolini, Centrale Montemartini, where it will remain on view from June 26 through November 15, 2026.

Matt Saunders, Plein Air 2, 2026.
NEW YORK, NY.- Marian Goodman Gallery is presenting an exhibition of new work by Matt Saunders, on view from 25 June to 7 August 2026. Embracing chance and contingency more closely than ever in this exhibition, Saunders undertakes investigations into the complex and open-ended interactions of materials and their making. He has often explored the border between photography and painting; his interest in hybrid forms is driven by a fascination with the material status of images, how they are positioned within a surface and can be transformed in time. De-stabilizing traditional forms and media, Saunders engages in improvisation and suspension between states of creation, engendering new transitions which reflect an ongoing interest in the mutability of perception and slippery encounters with beauty and unknowing. An array of iconography, from cinematic history and found images is joined by new visual materials based on direct observation and nature, and ... More

Alison Bradley Projects, 5 Years, installation view.
NEW YORK, NY.- Alison Bradey Projects is presenting 5 Years, a group exhibition commemorating the gallery’s fifth anniversary. Bringing together artists who have exhibited with the gallery since its founding, the exhibition includes works spanning more than six decades, gesturing to their individual practices as well as the gallery’s ethos as a whole. Throughout the exhibition, abstraction and representation, permanence and impermanence, and intimacy and monumentality emerge as productive tensions. The works negotiate questions of heritage, transmission, objecthood, and relationality, all while remaining attentive to the beauty, complexity, and instability of everyday life. Across painting, photography, sculpture, ceramics, and installation, the artists assembled here approach observation not as passive looking but as an active process through which materials, images, and objects acquire meaning over time. Influence operates less as a linear narrative than as a form of ... More
PARIS.- Perrotin is presenting Otani Workshop’s eighth solo exhibition with the gallery and the second in Paris. A major figure in Japanese ceramics, Otani Workshop uses painting and sculpture to create elemental forms that explore the mysterious world of childhood, evoking a sense of the uncanny. Since the dawn of time, humans have shaped the earth into figures. With nimble, sometimes rugged hands, they mold mud, clay, or earth into heads, bodies, and limbs. Then comes the firing and fusion: fire hardens and petrifies. It’s a world of metamorphoses. From Volterra to Delphi, from Prometheus to Vulcan, from Auguste Rodin to Lucio Fontana, this practice spans cultures and eras. At the age of seventeen, the young Shigeru Otani discovered Alberto Giacometti. One is not serious at seventeen, as Arthur Rimbaud said, for the wild heart ... More

Miles McEnery Gallery hosts Trudy Benson's third solo exhibition 'IM/MATERIAL' NEW YORK, NY.- IM/MATERIAL is Trudy Benson’s third solo exhibition with Miles McEnery Gallery, where she creates vibrant kaleidoscopic abstractions. Benson’s shape making and spatial logic are understood by the artist conjuring memories of their earliest attempts at abstraction which was done via MacPaint in the 90s. Her work is further shaped by an array of influences, ranging from saturated colors and pop culture imagery to early New York City spray can graffiti. Her paintings exist somewhere between the digital and analog realm of abstraction. Art historian Natalie Haddad describes this as Benson’s “‘bilingualism’ — a comfort with both worlds that allows for fluid movement between them, which extends to visual perception.” The paintings possess a unique painterliness which comes from Benson’s considerate understanding of acrylic and oil paint. ...

North Macedonia Pavilion at the Venice Biennale presents Velimir Zernovski: Pietà in the Emergency Blankets VENICE.- Through the project Pietà in the Emergency Blankets, the Pavilion of North Macedonia creates a contemplative yet critical space to renew our ethical sensibilities for a time of interleaved global crises. The pavilion draws from a canonical motif of sorrow to provide a meditation on vulnerability, displacement, and collective responsibility. It captures the enduring themes of mourning and care at stake in the image of the pietà and reads them through the troubled material and political realities of the present. Who do we carry responsibility for, and who carries us? The materiality of the emergency blankets that cover the sculpture provides access to the crises of our time, serving as a tangible reminder of precarious conditions ... More
M HKA presents the first Belgian solo exhibition of Nicola L. ANTWERP.- Through her first Belgian retrospective, M HKA presents a posthumous tribute to the politically engaged and free-spirited French artist Nicola L. Around ninety works, including pieces from the museum’s own collection, highlight her diverse and multidisciplinary practice, ranging from performance and design to visual art and film. Despite her strong ties to Belgium and connections with artists such as Marcel Broodthaers, as a female artist, she has largely eluded recognition within the canon of art history since the 1980s. With this exhibition, M HKA reintroduces her work to a wider audience, placing particular emphasis on her Belgian period during the 1960s and 1970s. Visitors will encounter a colourful and accessible world infused with humour and subtle surrealist elements. The exhibition is accompanied by a digital platform developed by M HKA, ... More
¡Frida Icónica! takes over the heart of Soho LONDON.- Coinciding with the public opening of Frida: The Making of an Icon at Tate Modern, ¡Frida Icónica! has taken over Carnaby Street, transforming the cultural hub into a vivid celebration of one of the art world’s most enduring and iconic figures. This spectacular installation has turned the heart of Soho into a vibrant canvas with a colourful display of public art inspired by Kahlo’s extraordinary vision. Garlands of traditional papel picado – the intricate Mexican art of decorative paper cutting - designed by artist Alejandra Ballesteros, cascade down Carnaby Street, featuring motifs and scenes inspired by Kahlo’s life and work. At its heart, an anamorphic mural composed from four portraits by Kahlo and contemporary artists reveal the artist’s recognisable profile when viewed head-on. The installation transforms when lit up from day to night, bringing Kahlo’s ... More
London showcase features 15 artists exploring fluid identity and dynamic perception LONDON.- GRIMM opened The Fountain Overflows, a group exhibition curated by Yates Norton at the London gallery.

In his Proverbs of Hell, the visionary poet and artist William Blake (1757 –1827) wrote: “the fountain overflows, the cistern contains.” For Blake, the fountain symbolised exuberance and the generative, generous movement of relations shaped by imagination and love. Its baroque, gushing flow celebrated life beyond systems and categories, dogma and cynical rationalism. In counterpoint, the cistern (contained, still, rational) embodied ... More

Haus der Kunst exhibits surf champion Tao Schirrmacher's collection of Eisbach River finds MUNICH.- “Down there is a different world altogether. While the chaos of the wave rages above, the silent witnesses of the city’s history rest on the riverbed.” – Tao Schirrmacher Since 2008, Tao Schirrmacher, European champion in river surfing, has been diving to the bottom of Munich’s Eisbach River to bring lost objects back to surface. What began with a single gold ring has grown over the years into an extensive collection of found objects and artifacts: jewellery, car keys, watches, cartridges and air pistols from the Second World War, devotional objects, papers, tools, telephones, cameras and much more. The finds are as varied as the stories they tell. Where do they come from? Who did they belong to? Some seem lost and forgotten, hidden deep beneath the surface. Others offer a glimpse of their past, such as two wedding rings that clearly belong ... More
Kiang Malingue presents Wang Xiaoqu's first solo exhibition in Hong Kong HONG KONG.- Kiang Malingue is presenting Dwelling in Mirrors, a solo exhibition by Wang Xiaoqu at its Hong Kong location, featuring over a dozen oil paintings created over the past year. The series expands upon the artist's recent artistic trajectory—a transition at once poised and intense. As the artist turns her gaze inward, she recalibrates the relationship between the self and the other, utilizing her captivating canvases to reimagine social milieus, friendships, temporal existence, and the ruptured link between the ego and its projected ideals—the self dwelling in mirrors. This is Wang Xiaoqu’s first solo exhibition with Kiang Malingue. Inspired by Emily Dickinson’s line, “I dwell in Possibility,” the exhibition title suggests a transcendence of social relations and a focus on the process of self-becoming, while each work can be seen as the concentrated and candid ...

Giacomo Santiago Rogado presents abstract series in new exhibition 'continuo' at Bernhard Knaus Fine Art FRANKFURT.- With continuo, Giacomo Santiago Rogado presents works from the series Intuition, Coalescence, Accord and Calibra. The exhibition title refers to the idea of a continuum: a state of ongoingness in which the world appears not as an accumulation of separate entities, but as a network of relationships, transitions and reciprocal influences. This notion forms the exhibition’s point of departure, posing the question of how painting might render visible those connections that elude immediate definition. The bringing together of different bodies of work offers an insight into the complexity and breadth of Rogado’s artistic practice. Although the works originate from distinct series, they enter into a shared dialogue within the exhibition. In doing so, they reveal not only the specific characteristics of each body of work, but also the underlying ... More
Paula Cooper Gallery displays Liz Glynn's 'American Progress (after John Gast)' in street vitrine NEW YORK, NY.- Liz Glynn’s American Progress (after John Gast) (2017) is currently on view in Paula Cooper Gallery’s vitrine. The work is part of Glynn’s ongoing series The Shape of Progress, which reflects critically on United States history and the contradictory myths woven into the foundation of American identity. In American Progress (after John Gast), thin copper sheeting evokes the draped folds of the woman’s dress in John Gast’s 1872 painting American Progress, an allegorical depiction of the nineteenth-century westward expansionist belief known as ‘manifest destiny.’ In the painting, the colossal figure strides from an industrialized East towards an ‘untamed’ West, as bison and Indigenous people on horseback flee. Farmers in wagons proceed in her wake, as do railroads and telegraph wires, representing the pinnacle of late nineteenth-century ... More
