LORTON, VA.- Each piece in Kate Brogdons latest show is presented in multiple layers. This is partly because each is a renewed version of an older piece or other recycled materials. It is also because each is presented in multiple ways creating different levels of detail, intended to be seen from various distances. Arches Gallery presents her solo feature from 11 July until 2 August at the Workhouse Art Center. The work in Recycled Renewed Repurposed all reuse older art or packaging from everyday items such as tea, candy or champagne, carrying an understood idea of value in reuse and beauty of the discarded: environmental themes are always present in her work. Every piece is painted or drawn over varying surfaces including her own photographs. The repeated reworking creates a depth and presence with the reflective surfaces adding to the visual impact. Reinterpreting her own images recasts the original context of the initi ... More

POTSDAM.- Oscar Murillo has transformed the interior and exterior spaces of DAS MINSK Kunsthaus in Potsdam into a lived experiment of exchange and community, with visitors invited to paint on large-scale canvases in an open-air Collective painting process. In addition, works by Oscar Murillo and Claude Monet are on view at DAS MINSK and at Museum Barberini, marking the first collaborative exhibition project between the two institutions of the Hasso Plattner Foundation. A new podcast traces the connections between the French Impressionist and the Colombian-born, London-based artist. In the exhibition Collective Osmosis, on view through August 9, 2026, Oscar Murillo creates a dialogue between his abstract paintings, his participative projects, and Impressionist works by Claude Monet. The starting point is Murillos engagement with the French painters life, work, and reception. In his later years, Monet suffered from cataracts, gradually losing his eyesight until undergoing surgery ... More

Jointly shared by Tate and the National Galleries of Scotland, the ARTIST ROOMS collection is used to stage free touring exhibitions at museums and galleries across the UK.

ADELAIDE.- Adelaide Fringe, the largest arts festival in the Southern Hemisphere, has illustrated how a festival built for broad community participation can deliver major cultural, social and economic impact for South Australia. The 2026 season shows that when more people are given more ways to take part, the benefits are felt well beyond the festival period. Through accessible ticket pricing, free and low-cost experiences, school programs and events presented across theatres, bars, parks, streets, civic spaces and neighbourhood venues, Adelaide Fringe creates multiple entry points for audiences, artists and communities. That accessibility also extends to artists. Adelaide Fringe has kept registration fees low and unchanged for 15 years, reducing the financial barrier to participation and helping independent artists, producers and venues bring new work to audiences without the cost increases seen across much of the broader events sector. The result is a festival that brings people together while ... More

LISBON.- For his first-ever exhibition in Portugal, French artist Céleste Boursier-Mougenot presents one of his most iconic works: from here to ear v.26. As a composer, Céleste Boursier-Mougenot arranges sound structures in space like physical scores, naturally bringing his music into the realm of contemporary art. He creates the conditions for a permanent musical composition that is both random and perfectly controlled. In this piece, visitors are invited to walk through a room filled with some twenty electric guitars played by unusual performers: zebra finches small birds that perch freely onto the instruments. More than a simple sound installation, the work is above all an invitation to align ones perception, movements, and behavior with those of these winged performers. Two worlds within a single space are united in the resonances of music that never ceases to unfold. Céleste Boursier-Mougenot has held numerous exhibitions at prestigious institutions worldwide. These include th ... More

The presentation introduces Mardens largest works to date, including her first paintings in a triptych format and watercolors. Marden paints with acrylic, resin, and powdered pigment, working on canvas panels placed on the studio floor or exterior ground.

Its verses communicate the elation prompted by experiences of nature, while ending with the lament I dont understand people: / no matter how much they play with colours / they all remain pitch-black. Marden also ... More

BARCELONA.- MACBA presents The Act of Filming: Video in the MACBA Collection, a new project dedicated to the presence of the moving image within the museums Collection. The show, which opened on 9 July, gathers three exhibition projects that explore different periods and ways of understanding video as an artistic language and as an instrument of social transformation: Counter-information: Video-Nuevo / Community Video Service, Echoes. Videos donated by the Han Nefkens Foundation and Pere Portabella: the Committed Gaze.

The first of the proposals, Counter-information: Video-Nuevo / Community Video Service, features a selection ... More

Derek Eller Gallery announces debut solo exhibition by Sarah Gamble NEW YORK, NY.- Derek Eller Gallery presents Trip the Light Fantastic, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Sarah Gamble. Employing a visual vocabulary which moves fluidly between abstraction and representation, Gamble conjures fantastical alternate worlds frequently rendered in a mix of expressionistic gestures peppered with jewel-like passages. Summoning Bacchus, Venus, and Zephyr, Miltons evocation of a joyful dance celebrating lifes idyllic moments is almost hallucinatory in its vivid description. Gamble channels this euphoric sentiment in her new paintings, depicting ancient rock formations, cosmic night skies, and lush rose gardens captured in transitional moments between reality and fantasy. With an interest in exploring among other things time travel, transcendence, pre life, and inner life, she explains, I often paint forms or objects in different states of manifestation in an effort to show energy or matter coming apart or reorganizing itself into new forms.
