LONDON.- From 4 to 10 August 2026, Auraland Art, an independent international arts organisation, presented Samsara, a contemporary group exhibition at Somers Gallery in London. Bringing together 23 artists from diverse creative backgrounds, the exhibition explored the cyclical nature of life, the passage of time, and the processes of disruption, transformation, and reconstruction through a range of contemporary visual art practices. The exhibition took its title from Samsara, a Sanskrit term referring to the continuous cycle of existence, death, and rebirth. Rather than approaching cycles as mere repetition, Samsara considered them as ongoing processes of change, in which established structures are continually disrupted, reconfigured, and renewed. Time, memory, the body, emotion, and social experience intersected throughout the artists' practices, forming multiple narratives around existence, impermanence, and continuity. Samsara sought to e ... More
HOUSTON, TX.- Few American artists are as closely associated with the outdoors as Winslow Homer (1836–1910), and few rival his ability to depict it in watercolor. This fall, visitors to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to see the largest collection in the world of Homer's watercolors, from the holdings of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Because of the works' sensitivity to light, they have not been displayed together in almost half a century. The exhibition, Of Light and Air: Winslow Homer from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, is on view at the MFAH from November 1, 2026, through February 7, 2027. The MFAH is the only travel venue for the show, which was organized by and debuted at the MFA Boston in fall 2025. Of Light and Air presents nearly 50 watercolors by the artist, alongside a selection of his oils, drawings, and prints. With material ranging ... More
Maureen O'Leary, Alone at tea but not alone in the house, 2021-23. Oil on linen 20 x 14 inches (50.8 x 35.6 cm).
NEW YORK, NY.- Cristin Tierney Gallery is presenting The Linden Trees, a solo exhibition of recent paintings and writings by Maureen O’Leary. This is the artist's second solo show with the gallery. The exhibition will be on view through Saturday, December 19th. Coinciding with the exhibition, the artist will release an animated film and a publication with the same title.

Composed of thirty-four oil paintings and thirty-five text panels written by the artist, the work gives new life to two female characters from 19th-century Russian literature: Natasha Rostova from Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace and Princess Polina from Alexander Pushkin's unfinished story Roslavlev. O’Leary reimagines what might have been possible for these women had their artistic ambitions ... More
NEW YORK, NY.- Phaidon presents Dansaekhwa: Korean Abstract Art and its Cultural Impact, a major new study of the groundbreaking postwar movement that redefined Korean abstract art. Written by leading art historian Dr. Yeon Shim Chung, this beautifully illustrated volume explores the aesthetic legacy and cultural influence of Dansaekhwa, revealing how a generation of Korean artists radically expanded the possibilities of painting through process, tactility, and experimentation. Although Dansaekhwa is often translated simply as "monochrome painting," it extends far beyond the canvas into drawing, sculpture, installation, conceptual art, and experimental work. Emerging in South Korea during the 1970s, artists developed new visual languages rooted in repetitive processes, tactile surfaces, and the exploration of material, transforming painting into a deeply physical and meditative experience. With more than 250 illustrations of artworks and arch ... More

BREMEN.- "The Dachshund. An Icon off the Leash" (31 October 2026 – 28 March 2027) is the first exhibition dedicated to dachshunds in art. With around 120 historical and contemporary works, the show explores various perspectives of the dachshund in art, ranging from its origin as a hunting dog, its role as an urban companion of the bourgeoisie, popular muse and inspiration to artists through to the iconic figure we find everywhere today. In addition, dachshunds themselves will be both protagonists and audience during the exhibition. With major works, the show "The Dachshund. An Icon off the Leash" traces the appearance of the dachshund in art, starting with its traditional role as hunting dog, its popularity as companions of the bourgeoisie and today its emergence as ubiquitous iconic and fashionable figure. The dachshund's star is not just rising among dog-owners, its unmistakable shape can be found everywhere: on cups, socks and jumpers. They have been well-loved companions and objects on ... More

Produced by OGR Torino and SMAC Venice (San Marco Art Centre), the exhibition is accompanied by an ambitious programme of related initiatives. Highlights include the presentation of an infinity mirror room by Yayoi Kusama. Through light, reflections and endless repetition, the installation Infinity Mirrored Room – The Eternally Infinite Light ... More
BEIJING.- Galerie Urs Meile Beijing is presenting Time Out of Joint, a group exhibition featuring six artists who have been in ongoing dialogue with the gallery over the past few years. These conversations and reflections are condensed into the exhibition. Using excavation as a metaphor for time, the exhibition explores a suspended state in which linear chronology breaks down and past, present, and future overlap. Familiar frames of reference are beginning to shift, but a new order has yet to emerge. Following three pairs of parallel, interconnected paths, the six artists converge on this unsettled present. Drawing on classical traditions, Wendi Yan and Zhou Jiangnan rework materials from the past to tell stories about the present. Yan studies the history of science, uncovering forgotten strands of knowledge and using digital media to construct speculative systems of ... More

Johan Tobias Sergel. Study for the Head of Diomedes (detail), ca. 1770. Red chalk. Nationalmuseum, Sweden, NMH 1026/1875.
NEW YORK, NY.- Johan Tobias Sergel (1740–1814) is one of Sweden's most important artists and a leading figure of European Neoclassicism, yet he remains relatively unknown outside Sweden. Internationally celebrated during his lifetime, and heralded by some as the greatest sculptor since antiquity, he later faded from the broader narrative of European art history. This fall, the Morgan Library & Museum introduces him to a new generation of audiences with Fantasy and Reality: The Art of Johan Tobias Sergel, the first major exhibition devoted to the artist outside Europe. On view October 30, 2026, through January 31, 2027, the exhibition brings together a significant selection of Sergel's works, including sculpture in terracotta, marble, bronze, and plaster, and a major group of the artist's drawings, which reveal his great humanity and keen eye for the complexities of human nature. The exhibition has been ... More
HAMBURG.- With her bold, gestural painting style, New York artist Joyce Pensato became the icon of the fusion of American pop culture and Abstract Expressionism. Mickey, Donald, Batman, The Simpsons, and South Park—through Pensato’s subversive appropriation, these familiar comic and cartoon characters reveal a darker, often unsettling yet deeply affecting side. EYES FOR YOU is the first major solo exhibition in Europe dedicated to the artist since her death in 2019. The exhibition traces the development of Joyce Pensato’s work, from her early still lifes and Batman drawings of the 1970s to the large-scale black-and-white enamel paintings of the 1990s, in which the New York artist brought drawing and painting together for the first time. This marked a decisive turning point in her artistic practice. While her work had initially been strongly shaped by her training at the New York Studio School and the Abstract Expressionism prevalent there, her shift from oil to enamel gave her new ... More
Zhang Yunyao, Time, 2021–2025.
HONG KONG.- Zhang Yunyao’s exhibition ‘When the Surface Thinks’ comprises a suite of graphite drawings on felt, executed with near-photographic precision. A response to philosopher Paul Valéry’s ironic quip that ‘what is deepest in man is the skin – insofar as he knows himself’, Zhang’s work at once tests the limits of representation and demonstrates his mastery of his medium.1 Now based in Paris, Zhang graduated in 2007 from the College of Fine Arts at Shanghai Normal University in China, before moving to Europe in 2020. Subverting the traditions of Soviet Realism and the French Beaux-Arts in which he was trained, Zhang brings together depictions of classical statuary, ancient masks and illusionistic structures from engineering plans and medical science. Through techniques of tight cropping or mirroring, Zhang creates abstract yet eerily faithful renderings that exploit aesthetic ideals such as symmetry, true likeness and compositional balance. Unlike these ... More
Antonio Canova, Monumento funerario di Horatio Nelson, 53 x 73 x 59 cm, Museo Gypsotheca Antonio Canova, Possagno.
POSSAGNO.- The Museo Gypsotheca Antonio Canova in Possagno is presenting "A Grand and Immortal Work: Antonio Canova's Monument to Horatio Nelson," an exhibition exploring the celebrated Italian sculptor's ambitious but ultimately unrealized funerary monument dedicated to one of Britain's greatest naval heroes. On view from November 1, 2026, through April 25, 2027, the exhibition brings together drawings, plaster models, paintings, and delicate wax reliefs that illuminate Canova's creative process and his interpretation of heroism in the modern age. Curated by Paolo Mariuz, the exhibition offers a detailed examination of the project Canova developed between 1806 and 1808 to commemorate Admiral Horatio Nelson (1758–1805), the Royal Navy commander whose victory at the Battle of Trafalgar secured his place among Britain's most celebrated national ...

In observance of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, these loans feature Jewish ritual objects used in synagogues and daily life in the United States since its founding. The works range from an early 1900s silver Torah crown, or an adornment for a closed Torah scroll, to contemporary mixed-media works such as an alms (donation) container. A monumental Torah ark from a synagogue in Sioux City, Iowa, carved in 1899 by a Jewish immigrant, offers a striking example of the history of Jewish life and artistic expression in the United States. The third installation of Jewish ceremonial art from the Jewish Museum at the CMA, Furnishing American Synagogues ... More

Zander Galerie announces representation of Mexican artist duo Lake Verea COLOGNE.- Zander Galerie announced the representation of Mexican artist duo Lake Verea, Francisca Rivero-Lake Cortina (b. 1973) and Carla Verea Hernández (b. 1978), both born in Mexico City. The announcement follows their first exhibition in the Cologne gallery, presented this summer, marking the beginning of a new collaboration and an ongoing commitment to the duo’s distinctive photographic practice. For more than two decades, Lake Verea has approached some of the most celebrated examples of twentieth-century architecture from an unexpected perspective: at daylight and nightlight, illuminated by the full moon and transformed through playful interventions. Working across analogue and digital cameras and a range of photographic formats, the queer artist duo explores architecture not simply as structure, but as a site of atmosphere, memory, intimacy, and lived experience. In their acclaimed DarkRooms series, Lake Verea employs long exposures and what they describe as “slow photography ... More

Piero Gilardi's socially engaged practices and agitprop works surveyed at PAV Torino TURIN.- PAV – Parco Arte Vivente presents From art to life, an exhibition curated by Marco Scotini and dedicated to a pivotal period in the career of Piero Gilardi (Turin, 1942–2023), marked by his withdrawal from the conventional art system and his engagement with social movements. The exhibition is the second instalment in a series of monographic exhibitions devoted by PAV to its founding artist, following Car Crash. Piero Gilardi and Arte Povera (2023). While the first exhibition explored Gilardi’s early work and his initial relationship with the Arte Povera movement in the 1960s, From Art to Life traces a trajectory that begins in the 1970s and 1980s and extends to works produced in the 2000s, documenting the decisive shift away from object-based art towards radical forms of social engagement, collective care and political emancipation. The exhibition spans a rich and complex period characterised by Gilardi’s definitive abandonment of the artwork as a consumer commodity ... More

Heidi Lau unveils largest suspended ceramic installation to date in New York exhibition NEW YORK, NY.- Sikkema Malloy Jenkins is presenting Ouroboros, an installation of ceramic sculptural work by artist Heidi Lau. On view from October 30 through December 19, 2026, Ouroboros expands upon Pavilion Procession, a major installation by Lau shown in the Sigg Prize 2025 Exhibition at M+ in Hong Kong. The title of the exhibition, Ouroboros, refers to an ancient totem of a snake or dragon in a circular formation swallowing its own tail. Interpreted as a reference to the cyclical nature of life, death and rebirth, for Lau it also points to a blurred distinction between phenomena and beings. Through hand-built, textured ceramics, Heidi Lau creates ritual objects, funerary monuments, fossilized creatures, and miniature universes. Since 2021, Lau has been immersed in the zoomorphic imaginings of Shanhaijing (The Classic of Mountains and Seas), a text compiling hundreds of geographies and fantastical creatures dated as early as fourth century BCE. The source mythologies of these cross-pollinated spe ... More
David Peter Francis presents group exhibition 'Rainbow Room' NEW YORK, NY.- David Peter Francis presents Rainbow Room, a group exhibition presenting new and recent works by Sophie Kovel, Heji Shin, Ronald Sterling, and Kianja Strobert. Rainbow Room is the epitome of New York glamour, where iconic skyline views, world-class dining, and impeccable service create unforgettable events. From star-studded celebrations to elegant gatherings, this legendary venue has hosted presidents, dignitaries, and entertainment icons — now, it's your turn. Both in imaging the orchids on the grounds of Marjorie Merriweather Post's Hillwood Estate and the paths lining the perimeter of Mark Zuckerberg's property, Sophie Kovel's works in the exhibition pinpoint succinct nuclei of concentrated wealth, cataloging the inextricable ties between power and aesthetic infrastructures. In 2006, Heji Shin was asked to cover the Chanel Fall Winter presentation in Paris, but upon being declined at the door, photographed those in line awaiting wishful entry. Masquerading under the genre of s ... More
