PASADENA, CA.- Long before Los Angeles became internationally recognized as a major center for contemporary art, Pasadena’s museums, schools and cultural institutions were already introducing Southern California audiences to many of the artists who would come to define modern and postwar art. Jack Rutberg Fine Arts is bringing that history into focus with Pasadena: L.A.’s Art Legacy, an expansive exhibition assembling 70 paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures by nearly 60 artists from the gallery’s holdings. The exhibition grew out of research undertaken after Jack Rutberg Fine Arts relocated to Pasadena. Looking closely at the exhibition histories of local institutions revealed a striking pattern: generations of internationally significant artists had been presented in Pasadena museums and schools, often at particularly important moments in their careers, even ...

DENVER, PA.- Now that summer is in everyone’s rear-view mirror, it’s time to start thinking of ways to enjoy the cooler autumn weather. Here’s an idea: head west to Las Vegas, October 16 and 17, for Morphy’s much-anticipated Coin-Op & Advertising auction, featuring more than 1,100 lots of rare, high-quality antiques and vintage collectibles.

NEW YORK, NY.- The acclaimed Chinese artist Liu Wei (born 1972, Beijing) has transformed the niches of The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s iconic Fifth Avenue facade with a suite of new sculptures that confronts the constant state of shift in society. Consisting of four metallic, monumental works, Speculation lays bare the contradictions inherent in periods of profound change, in the context of the Museum’s architecture, collection, and the complexity of our time. Through Liu’s signature language of assemblage and reconfiguration—in which organic, geometric, and architectural fragments collide—the cycles of rupture and suture in the historical and contemporary experience come alive. On view through June 8, 2027, The Genesis Facade Commission: Liu Wei, Speculation marks Liu's first major presentation in the United States. “Liu Wei’s sculptures for The Genesis Facade Commission reflect the curiosity, innovation, and—most importantly—the audacity he ...

Louise Bourgeois, The Fingers, 1968. Wax, wood, and cardboard, 6 x 15 1/2 x 9 3/4 inches.
NEW YORK, NY.- Craig Starr Gallery is presenting Louise Bourgeois: Germinal on view September 17, 2026, through January 16, 2027. Organized with The Easton Foundation, this two-floor exhibition focuses on Bourgeois’s defining work of the 1960s, a turning point in her practice. Featuring sculptures on the first floor and drawings on the fourth, the exhibition traces the emergence of a formal and symbolic vocabulary fundamental to her art: the fragmented body, the ambiguous sexual object, the repeated organic form, conceived as iterative and subject to transformation. On the first floor, the installation foregrounds three large, segmented totemic sculptures that mark Bourgeois’s departure from the rigid verticality of her early wood Personages toward more sensual, organic forms in plaster, latex, and bronze. Key works from her Germinal (1966-67) and Fingers (1968-71) series extend this shift through processes of pouring, repeating, and hand-shaping to impose order ... More

MILAN.- Pirelli HangarBicocca presents "XYZ," Aki Sasamoto's first solo exhibition at a European institution, bringing together more than two decades of interdisciplinary experimentation, where science and intuition, mathematics and emotion, absurdity and seriousness, the everyday and the extraordinary coexist. Through sculptures, installations, and performative activities, Sasamoto engages with themes related to human and social relationships, memory, and emotional experience, offering a unique journey that bridges rigor and profound humanity. “The world I touch and the world I understand via language are so different. The world only makes sense somewhere between what I make and what I end up doing with it,” explains Aki Sasamoto. Aki Sasamoto (born in Kanagawa, Japan in 1980; currently lives and works in New York) operates at the intersection ... More
PARIS.- Sotheby’s Paris unveiled Le Temps Retrouvé: The Schlumberger Collection, one of the most valuable private collections of Impressionist and Modern art ever to come to auction in France.

Estimated at €22–30 million, the painting is the most important work from this celebrated series ever to appear on the market and the ... More
PARIS.- For the first time ever, an Art Exhibition will celebrate the Catalan band of brothers who a century ago changed the art world forever. Bound together by their shared Mediterranean background, their exile in Paris, and by their friendship, Picasso and his four friends built a legacy that side by side will stand together in the French capital this October. It is a long-awaited moment to savour their contribution to the world of art. The works on show are valued at approximately between €20,000 and €1,000,000 They had come to cold Paris, these brothers of the sun, seeking their own - artists like them - hoping to find fame and fortune. And a century later it is clear that they achieved all those aims and created art that made a significant impact on the world which is their legacy. There is a powerful link between British and Catalans who fought alongside each other against the fascist Franco forces from 1936-39. Among the 4,000 Brits in the International Brigade the most famo ... More
ANTWERP.- On September 18, FOMU will open 3 new exhibitions. Eyes to Fly With is the first major retrospective of the work of renowned Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide in Belgium. Her work explores themes such as identity, social relationships and ephemerality. The title of the exhibition, Eyes to Fly With, is inspired by one of Iturbide’s self-portraits and refers to her vision of photography as a means of exploring both oneself and the world. For Iturbide, photography has an emancipatory quality, opening up new perspectives on reality. In the exhibition, you will discover, among other things, the important societal and economic roles performed by women from the Zapotec community in Oaxaca. Graciela Iturbide breaks with traditional conceptions of gender by placing women at the heart of her work. In the series White Fence, she investigates how identity is a product of factors like ancestry, living conditions and migration, and how communities continue to evolve and adapt ... More
Hiroki Tsukuda, Legal Order, 2026. Charcoal, acrylic ink, oil, oil pastel, pencil, and colored pencils on paper and wood panel, with silkscreen printed acrylic frame, 25.59 x 21.65 in (65 x 55 cm).
ZURICH.- Mai 36 Galerie is presenting 𝒾𝓃𝒻𝑒𝓇𝓃𝑜, Hiroki Tsukuda’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, opening in September. Conceived as a constellation of newly produced two-dimensional and sculptural works, the exhibition draws viewers into a world in which distinctions between the real and the fabricated, the digital and the handmade, begin to collapse. Tsukuda’s images seem at once excavated from an abandoned past and transmitted from a near future: speculative records of a civilisation looking back at the conditions of its own undoing. The exhibition brings together hybrid two-dimensional works—each combining monotype, drawing, photography and screen-printed acrylic—with a group of Plexiglas boxes containing what the artist calls “Cross Figures”. Assembled from found objects, readymade parts and constructed imagery, these small, toy-like figures appear as ... More
Janice Kerbel, Death Lust Love Revenge Deceit, 2014. Letterpress print on newsprint paper, 65 x 47,5 cm.
REYKJAVÍK.- i8 Gallery is presenting a solo exhibition of nine new mosaic works by Janice Kerbel. The show, the artist’s third solo exhibition at i8, opened on 17 September and will remain on view until 7 November 2026. Kerbel’s newest body of work explores the materiality of language, particularly its permanence and impermanence. For this exhibition, the artist isolates a series of letterforms, presenting each as an individual work. The letters appear in the familiar typeface Times New Roman, in various capitalizations, scales, and positions within panels distributed across the exhibition space. While type increasingly exists in digital form, Kerbel uses glass smalti mosaic, an ancient form of depiction, to render this selection of letters. By suspending their communicative function and freeing them from their conventional typographic setting, each letter is given height, weight, materiality, and temporality through the physical presence of mosaic. Janice ... More
BRUSSELS.- From 18 September 2026 to 7 March 2027, Bozar presents I am not me, the horse is not mine, a major exhibition devoted to William Kentridge (Johannesburg, b. 1955), one of the most influential artists of our time. Spanning more than four decades of artistic practice, from the early 1980s to today, the exhibition brings together drawing, animated film, sculpture, printmaking, installation and video, with particular attention to several of his major stage productions. The exhibition highlights the performative and collaborative nature of Kentridge’s practice, revealing how art becomes a space for political inquiry, historical reckoning and poetic transformation. Taking over one of Bozar’s major exhibition circuits of ten galleries, Kentridge also creates site-specific works for the occasion, such as the monumental Ubu wall drawing or the tribute to the late South African dancer and choreographer Dada Masilo (on Bozar’s stairs). September also marks the start of a wider coll ... More
At the center of the exhibition is a work also titled Unconditional. Kaspar created it as a transportable piece housed in a specially designed crate with display elements.
MÖNCHENGLADBACH.- Museum Abteiberg is presenting Unconditional, a new exhibition by Tobias Kaspar that examines how artworks change as they move through different places, hands and institutional settings. On view from September 18 through November 29, 2026, the project was developed in cooperation with the Stiftisches Humanistisches Gymnasium Mönchengladbach (HUMA) and grew out of Kaspar’s 2025/26 Mönchengladbach International Studio Scholarship. At the center of the exhibition is a work also titled Unconditional. Kaspar created it as a transportable piece housed in a specially designed crate with display elements. It consists of four photographs coated with gray scratch-off material, making their surfaces especially vulnerable to touch, handling and change. Rather than trying to protect the work from those changes, Kaspar has ... More

Loredana Sperini debuts new ceramics, textiles, and sculptures at Galerie Urs Meile ZURICH.- Galerie Urs Meile is presenting Holding Things Together, the first solo show by Swiss artist Loredana Sperini (b. 1970, Wattwil, Switzerland) with the gallery. The exhibition presents new works ranging from ceramic forms suspended from metal mobiles and sculptural interventions on chairs to wax-covered cement panels and textile compositions. This variety of materials and techniques reflects Sperini’s longstanding practice of combining and adapting methods from different media. The body is a recurring presence, although it rarely appears as a complete figure. It emerges through fragments or abstract forms whose proportions and shapes suggest bodily features. This movement between figuration and abstraction extends to the physical qualities of the works themselves. Sperini often challenges conventional expectations of how things should ... More
Hernan Bas debuts new paintings exploring suburban commerce and salesmen LONDON.- Victoria Miro presents TIME TO SHINE! (the salesmen), an exhibition of new paintings by Hernan Bas. This new body of work is set in places of retail where, as comedy, tragedy and life in general tell us, minor characters assume leading dramatic roles. The title, TIME TO SHINE! (the salesmen), suggests moments illuminated by theatrical spotlight. Here, then, are actors in the theatre of, usually, suburban commerce poised for an encounter that seems every bit as electric as the hush before a revered thespian enters the stage. This mercantile world takes us to stores and stands of different kinds, as well as to the seaside. Several works were triggered, Proust-like, by childhood memories. Yet it also extends to the hallowed environs of the contemporary art gallery – and here we’re reminded that Bas has often traded in the self-reflexive, conjuring ... More
Grazer Kunstverein presents first institutional exhibition of conceptual artist Martin Maloney GRAZ.- Grazer Kunstverein presents Martin Maloney, the first focused institutional presentation of the work of conceptual artist Martin Maloney (1938–2003). The exhibition will run from September 18 – December 13, 2026. In New York City in the 1960s, when Conceptual art was taking shape, Maloney was there, standing next to the crib. He had a spot in Seth Siegelaub’s 1966 The 25 Show: Painting and Sculpture, was included in other influential group shows, and exhibited with Gallery Konrad Fischer. For a short while, he shared a studio with Lawrence Weiner on Bleecker Street. He was well-connected, receiving Christmas cards from Sol LeWitt and, according to Maloney’s notebooks, “compliments” from Dan Graham, who once told him: “Maloney, if you stab someone in the back, at least you look them in the eyes.” By most reasonable measures, he had all the ...

Martine Syms debuts new films and concept store at Sadie Coles HQ LONDON.- The work of Martine Syms (b. 1988, Los Angeles) engages the fluid definitions of reality and fiction of our contemporary world. In Knot Eye, her exhibition at Sadie Coles HQ, Kingly Street, Syms slips between genres, modes of representation and narrative-threads, with two new films and a concept store. The exhibition presents RW-LO, 2026, which will have its theatrical premiere at the New York Film Festival in September. In the 22-minute docu-fantasy, set in the Garden District of New Orleans in the year 2000, Syms blends reenactments with home movies from the life of Brent David Freaney, a lifelong pop girlie, who was once, as vintage camcorder footage reveals, a Deep South teenager obsessed with outspoken Real World New Orleans castmate Melissa Howard. RW-LO is a nostalgic — and surprising — inquiry into what happens when people ... More
Seoul exhibition features over 300 archival items and unreleased footage of artist Oh Yoon SEOUL.- The Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA) presents Oh Yoon, an exhibition commemorating the 40th anniversary of the passing of Oh Yoon (1946–1986), a quintessential figure of Korean Minjung Art in the 1980s.

Bruce Silverstein Gallery presents Sarah Sense: Land, Line, Blood, Memory NEW YORK, NY.- Bruce Silverstein Gallery is presenting Sarah Sense: Land, Line, Blood, Memory, the gallery’s third solo exhibition of work by Chitimacha/Choctaw artist Sarah Sense (b. 1980), who for more than two decades, has been a defining voice in contemporary photography. Comprising of more than twenty new photo-weavings made from the artist’s contemporary landscape photographs, archival documents, historical images, maps, printed bamboo and rice papers, cotton thread, ribbon, and hand-prepared rivercane, the exhibition considers the relationship between Indigenous people and ancestral land and the systems of representation, ownership, and erasure that have attempted to sever that connection. Sense’s practice is grounded equally in inherited knowledge and original research. Her grandmother, Chile Blanche Stouff, kept a collection ... More
Haines celebrates the work of leading Native American artists with new exhibition SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- As the United States marks its 250th anniversary, Haines Gallery presents 250 Years, Indigenous Futures, a group exhibition centering the work of leading Native American artists Victoria Grace Canby, Jordan Ann Craig, Sky Hopinka, Brad Kahlhamer, Terran Last Gun, Jamie Okuma, Wendy Red Star, and Keith Secola. Working across painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, and film, these artists engage contemporary culture, Nation-specific visual traditions, and personal histories in distinct and expansive ways. While occasioned by this anniversary, 250 Years, Indigenous Futures does not commemorate it. Rather, the exhibition recognizes 1776 as only one moment within much longer histories of Indigenous presence, adaptation, and sovereignty. Creating space for artists to define their own terms of engagement, the exhibition ... More

Lévy Gorvy Dayan opens Wangari Mathenge's first solo show with the gallery NEW YORK, NY.- Lévy Gorvy Dayan announced Wangari Mathenge: Re-membering, the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. Probing how culture, memory, and landscape are made and unmade, the presentation will mark Wangari Mathenge’s first public exhibition of sculpture and will debut five paintings. The exhibition’s title Re-membering derives from the artist’s series of the same name, which she began in the fall of 2024. It was inspired by Ngugi wa Thiong’o’s 2009 book Something Torn and New: An African Renaissance—which focuses on the critical impacts of colonialism and slavery on the experience of diasporic and continental Africans, as well as strategies of resistance and recovery. The first part of Mathenge’s project involved extensive study of Kenyan colonial literature and cultural objects from 1900 to 1963—the year of Kenya’s ... More

Running with the Sun is Roser’s first solo exhibition outside the United States in over six decades, and her first in Europe, tracing her remarkable contribution to the language of abstract painting over more than five decades.
