Sora Kimberlain, Port Auvere, 2025. Italian marble, 25 1/2 x 16 x 6 in. 64.8 x 40.6 x 15.2 cm. Signed and dated on base.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA.-Wessling Contemporary presents Sora Kimberlain: Through Your Eyes or Someone Else's, a solo exhibition highlighting the artist's latest work across sculpture and works on paper. The exhibition opens on Thursday, May 21, 2026, and will remain on view through Saturday, June 27, 2026. Renowned for her sculptural craft, Sora Kimberlain engages deeply with marble, a material she describes as both demanding and endlessly compelling. Formed over vast stretches of geological time, marble carries a sense of history and resilience that informs her approach. Its simultaneous elegance and ruggedness present both challenges and rewards-qualities that continue to draw her into an ongoing dialogue with the stone. Working with hand chisels alongside power and pneumatic tools, Kimberlain approaches carving as a process of discovery, extracting shapes from within the material, seeking ... More
Diego Rivera, Dos Mujeres (Two Women), 1914, oil on canvas, 77 3/4 x 63 1/2 in., Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts Foundation Collection: Gift of Abby Rockefeller Mauzé. 1955.010.
LITTLE ROCK, ARK.- Three years after its grand opening, the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts (AMFA) reveals a major transformation of the Harriet and Warren Stephens Galleries, showcasing new acquisitions and major gifts from the museum’s permanent collection on view for the first time. Complementing masterpieces from the AMFA vaults, additional works loaned from other collections and cultural institutions were intentionally selected for inclusion in the galleries to present works by international artists rarely seen within the state. Each gallery focuses on a central theme and highlights the strengths of the AMFA Foundation Collection, inviting guests to gain a deeper understanding of art and artists across history in an approachable way. New curatorial research is introduced via expanded text panels, and new acquisitions are indicated as such on wall labels. Works by American ... More
Mezcala, Seated Jaguar, 500 BCE-100 CE, Black Serpentine, 8.875 x 5 x 5.75 in.
NEW YORK, NY.-Throckmorton Fine Art will present POINTS WEST: Formative Stone Sculpture from Mesoamerica from May 21- July 11, 2026. Drawn from collections assembled over nearly fifty years in New York, California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas, POINTS WEST offers a fresh look at the development of Formative-period stone sculpture in Mesoamerica. Spanning 1200 BCE to 400 CE, the exhibition of 60 objects brings together some of the most striking and sophisticated abstractions of the human figure in the ancient Americas. POINTS WEST will open with a reception on May 21 from 6-8 p.m. With the Olmec begins one of the great cultural traditions of the ancient Americas, a story that unfolds across more than 2,500 years. In the mid-20th century, when artist and historian Miguel Covarrubias famously described the Olmec as the “mother culture” of Mesoamerica, he also suggested that Olmec art may have begun in the highlands of Guerrero.

Admission ticket featuring a detail of The Great Captain by Madrazo. National Prado Museum.
MADRID.- The Museo Nacional del Prado is giving its visitors a more personal role in shaping the museum experience — beginning with the tickets they hold in their hands. As part of its Visitor Services program, sponsored by Telefónica, the Prado invited the public to vote on the images that will appear on its new admission tickets. Nearly 2,000 people took part in the open vote, selecting their favorite works from a group of twelve paintings connected by a shared theme: the horse. The choice was not accidental. Long associated with power, movement, nobility and energy, the horse has played a central role in some of the Prado’s most memorable works. It also carries special resonance in relation to the Chinese calendar, which inspired the museum’s initiative. The clear favorite among voters was Federico de Madrazo’s The Great Captain, Surveying the Field of the Battle of Cerignola, which received 74.42% of the vote. The dramatic historical painting will now be one of the image ... More

The gift includes works from several major bodies of work, from his early photographs made in refugee camps in East Africa and Pakistan to later ... More
Evan Holloway, HEADLAMP O/B, 2026. Powder-coated aluminum, high temperature spray paint, blown glass, LEDs, and wiring components, 31 x 21 x 38 inches (78.7 x 53.3 x 96.5 cm).
LOS ANGELES, CA.- David Kordansky Gallery is presenting ROYGBIV, an exhibition of new sculptures by Evan Holloway. The exhibition is on view in Los Angeles at 5130 W. Edgewood Pl. from May 16 through June 20, 2026. ROYGBIV finds Holloway highlighting and recontextualizing what has become perhaps his most recognizable sculptural form and also introducing a new body of work. A group of new, large-scale head sculptures made from powder-coated and spray-painted aluminum, each outfitted with a working lightbulb in place of a nose, are shown adjacent to a new series of balancing tabletop sculptures in which movable steel elements rest atop ceramic bases. The exhibition is at once a celebration of an iconic series of objects and a quizzical, open-minded attempt on the part of their maker to understand their meaning, power, and longevity as features in the contemporary art landscape ...

Red Canna, 1925-1928, by Georgia O'Keeffe, courtesy of Georgia O'Keeffe Museum.
NEW YORK, NY.- Cargo Film & Releasing announced that it has acquired North American distribution rights to Georgia O’Keeffe: The Brightness Of Light, about the life and art of the iconic American artist, starring Claire Danes as the Voice of Georgia O’Keeffe with narration by actor Hugh Dancy. Cargo will release the film theatrically for special screenings on and around Mother’s Day this May, with a nationwide digital launch set for June 1. Produced and directed by Academy Award and Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Paul Wagner (The Stone Carvers) and his American Focus producing partner Ellen Casey Wagner (Windhorse). Georgia O’Keeffe is widely revered as the “Mother of American Modernism” and the greatest woman artist of the 20th century. In the 1920s, O’Keeffe became famous for her paintings of flowers, bones, and the beauty of nature. She posed nude for shocking photographs by her lover, Alfred Stieglitz, but denied that her paintings ... More
NEW YORK, NY.- Tina Kim Gallery announced its U.S. representation of the Estate of Kim Lim, a Singaporean-British sculptor and printmaker whose work constitutes a vital yet historically underrecognized contribution to postwar abstraction. Working in London from the 1950s until her death in 1997, Lim (1936–1997) developed a distinctive practice shaped by an unusually wide range of cultural and historical references and marked by a formal rigor that places her in direct dialogue with the defining sculptors of her generation. The gallery will debut her work at Art Basel, Switzerland, this June and present a solo exhibition in spring 2027, marking the first solo presentation of her work in the U.S. In a practice that stretched across four decades, Lim combined the seriality and restraint of Minimalism with an organic modulation and transcultural sensibility that set her apart from her contemporaries. ...

LONDON.- This week Tate Britain will launch Europe’s largest retrospective of James McNeill Whistler in 3 decades. Bringing together 150 exquisite works of art, it offers a once-in-a-generation opportunity to see the full breadth of his painting, drawing, printmaking and design, from the iconic Portrait of the Artist’s Mother to a remarkable collection of nocturnes and previously unseen sketchbooks. It also reveals how Whistler created his ethereal visions of modern life and foretold the future of modern art. Visitors will discover a defiantly experimental artist and cosmopolitan celebrity who disrupted Victorian society in the pursuit of truth, beauty and artistic progress. The exhibition opens with a room inspired by Whistler’s studio. Four major self-portraits have been brought together from across his career, including The Artist in His Studio 1865-6, as well as two outstanding full-length portraits of fellow painter Maud Franklin. These are surrounded by Whistler’s own ... More
TORONTO.- Art lovers have the rare opportunity to experience museum-quality artworks by globally celebrated artists Vincent van Gogh and Pierre-August Renoir, alongside internationally-exhibited Canadian icons Emily Carr, Tom Thomson, Lawren Harris, and other members of the Group of Seven in a free public exhibition in Toronto ahead of a major auction on Wednesday, May 27. Presented by Cowley Abbott at its downtown Toronto gallery (326 Dundas Street West), the free exhibition offers access to 70 artworks from prominent private and corporate collections, including some works being exhibited publicly for the first time. Among the highlights is Pierre-August Renoir’s “Paysage du Midi, c. 1900” (est. $150,000 - $250,000), a rare Canadian auction offering by the pioneering impressionist master. Long-held in a Canadian private collection, the canvas will be exhibited for the first time in almost 40 years – and for the first time in Canada. Renoir paintings rarely appear at auction ... More
PARIS.- This new Paula Rego exhibition at Galerie Lelong focuses on an intense three-year period (2005–2007) which the artist spent in her London studio, devoting herself almost exclusively to drawing and lithography. Having just turned 70, she appreciated the immediacy of these two mediums, which enabled her to explore darker and more complex themes than ever before. Paula Rego was an avid reader, particularly of novels, tales and legends. She had previously drawn inspiration from Jane Eyre, Peter Pan, and others. The Prince Pig series offers an incisive exploration of the moral of The King of Pigs, a sixteenth century tale by the Venetian writer Straparola. The pig, an anthropomorphic figure which is omnipresent in her work, was her favourite animal; it reminded her of the one her grandparents had raised during her childhood in Portugal, ... More
Carolina Fontana, Z.E.N CH Luzern Puente (detail), 2026. Oil on canvas, 100 x 150 cm. Photo: Marcia Battaglia.
GENEVA.- Xippas Geneva presents Parallaxe, Carolina Fontana’s first solo exhibition in Geneva. When Carolina Fontana was invited to present a solo exhibition this spring at the Xippas gallery in Geneva, the artist decided to travel through the cantons of Geneva, Bern, and Luzern. This seemingly anecdotal detail reveals a processual dimension that her paintings do not immediately make explicit. The canvases that Carolina Fontana has created in recent years, in the series entitled Z·E·N, are the result of a contemplative experience of the landscape. These works possess a poetic dimension that arises from the process itself; they are intimately connected to a method embodied in the artist’s travels across Switzerland and, previously, in certain cities in Spain and China. If we situate these paintings within the tradition of landscape, this need to experience and inhabit the landscape or, in other words, ... More

The large-format paintings depict everyday still lifes, overlooked objects as well as portraits. Although his work maintains a dialogue with art history, it remains deeply personal. While his style, characterized by technical precision, points toward hyperrealism, Figures, objects, and symbols are brought together ... More
Centenary project for French artist François Morellet launches in Milan MILAN.- A arte Invernizzi opened the exhibition François Morellet | Gianni Colombo, curated by Luca Massimo Barbero. The exhibition marks the launch of the national project ∞François Morellet∞ Centenario in Italia 1926 - 2026, coordinated by A arte Invernizzi in close collaboration with the Estate Morellet, to mark the centenary of the French artist’s birth. Throughout the year, a series of exhibitions and events are planned to pay tribute to Morellet in a country where he exhibited for the first time in 1960 at the Galleria Azimut (Milan) – at the invitation of Piero Manzoni – and where the last exhibition he curated took place at A arte Invernizzi in 2016, opening shortly after his death. The exhibition aims to explore the relationship between Gianni Colombo (Milan, 1937 - Melzo, 1993) and François Morellet (Cholet, 1926-2016) – two leading figures in the international ... More
Jérâme Zonder reunited with his cinematic muses for major Paris drawing exhibition PARIS.- Galerie Nathalie Obadia is presenting in Paris Portraits du paradis, a new solo exhibition by Jérôme Zonder. For the first time since 2018, this new body of work brings together all the characters/models that have accompanied the artist for over twenty years: Pierre-François, Baptiste and Garance, figures borrowed from Marcel Carné’s film Les Enfants du Paradis. Through them, Jérôme Zonder continues his exploration of portraiture where his drawing practice is constantly evolving. "How can we depict the human figure today, when we don't even know what it looks like, or what it should look like?" asks the artist. Contemporary anthropological shifts-linked to technological advancements, to the proliferation of images and to the omnipresence of screens-are deeply transforming bodies and behaviors. It is precisely this complexity that the draftsman ... More
Johnny Rutherford Collection heads to starting line in Heritage's Auto Racing Showcase Auction DALLAS, TX.- It’s an old cliché: Good things come to those who wait. The thought can be applied in any number of scenarios, but in the world of auto racing — an industry in which success is reached at high speeds — it is a mantra that can be applied to one of the greatest drivers of all time. Johnny Rutherford started driving modified stock cars in Dallas in 1959, a couple of years before he joined the International Motor Contest Association sprint car circuit, and eventually the United States Auto Club (USAC). He won his qualifying heat race for the 1963 Daytona 500, becoming the youngest winner of a Duel as a championship race, and made his first start in the Indianapolis 500 the same year. He won the Indy 500 for the first time in 1974, a victory that was the first headline win in what turned out to be one of the greatest careers in the history of auto racing. After that first win at ... More
MOCA Toronto announces 2026 exhibition lineup TORONTO.- The Museum of Contemporary Art Toronto announced its full 2026 exhibition programme. The museum has turned the building over to dynamic, multi-floor projects by Kimsooja, Sara Cwynar, and Thenjiwe Niki Nkosi spanning textiles, ceramics, performance, and intricately constructed, monumental photographs and films. Through their subtle and hyper-visual sensibilities, the artists pose timely questions about the unnerving and liberating effects of an increasingly immaterial world. As the seasons shift, the fall programme becomes more elemental through the materially driven practices of Hugh Hayden, Delcy Morelos, and Bharti Kher. On each floor of MOCA, space-defining gestures and charged materials foreground the qualities of imbalance, fragility, and contradiction. Bringing together new commissions and recent works, MOCA’s Fall 2026 exhibitions ... More

Alexandra Grant brings decade-long Antigone project to albertz benda NEW YORK, NY.- albertz benda presents Antigone 3000 (Anakainōsis), Alexandra Grant's first solo exhibition with the gallery. On view from May 21 through July 03, 2026, the show features new paintings and works on paper from Grant’s long-term investigation into Sophocles’ myth of Antigone. Begun in 2014 as a series of large-scale works on paper combining painting, collage and wax rubbings, the Antigone 3000 works have morphed into paintings on canvas through the artist's use of screen printing of text and using a squeegee to manipulate paint across the surface. Throughout, Grant employs a visual language that translates the Greek myth into painting: lines representing the rule of law; pours and splashes to show the more ecstatic, expressionistic messiness of real life; and, interspersed throughout this painterly language, the phrase "I was born to love not to hate." ...
