MUNICH.- The Staatliche Graphische Sammlung München announced that it can restitute a series of watercolor drawings, the so-called “Prince Regent Series” (Prinzregentenzyklus), as well as a watercolor titled “Landscape near Oberbozen” by Max Slevogt (1868–1932) to the heirs of the original owners with whom an amicable agreement was reached. On 24 October 2025, the Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts and the Staatliche Graphische Sammlung München will return in the museum’s study hall these works to the representatives of the heirs of collector Leo Lewin, Wrocław, and the heirs of his brother, the lawyer Salo Lewin, Berlin. Thanks to a research grant from the German Lost Art Foundation, Magdeburg (Germany), and the Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts, distinguished provenance researcher at Staatliche Graphische Sammlung München Ilse von zur Mühlen was recently able to trace the provenance of the eleven watercolors of the “Prince Reg ...

BERLIN.- This winter, the Gemäldegalerie at Berlin’s Kulturforum welcomes visitors into an intimate world shaped by one man’s lifelong love of art. “This Is All Me! The Christoph Müller Donation, Part III: On Traveling and Being at Home” opened on December 2, 2025, marking the third chapter of a remarkable four-part series celebrating Müller’s generous bequest of nearly 200 works to the Kupferstichkabinett. The show brings together drawings, prints, and watercolors spanning five centuries, yet the thread tying them together is deeply personal. This installment explores the intertwined themes of travel and home—ideas Müller held close throughout his life. The selected works drift between atmospheric landscapes, calm seascapes, and bustling city scenes, revealing places where artists paused, departed, or dreamed of returning. Many pieces echo Müller’s own cherished geographies: the cultural heart of Berlin and the windswept shores of Sassnitz on the island of Rü ... More
LeRoy Robbins, Untitled (WPA-34-P)), 1936. Vintage gelatin silver print, 9 x 6 ¾ inches, mounted 16 ¼ x 13 ¼ inches, signed and dated on the mount recto.
LA JOLLA, CALIF.- Joseph Bellows Gallery will present, LeRoy Robbins: New Deal Photographs. The exhibition runs from December 9th to January 16th, 2026, in the gallery’s Atrium space. The show will feature vintage photographs of California taken in the 1930s while the photographer worked for the Works Progress Administration’s Federal Art Project, during the New Deal era, documenting the economic and social impact of the Great Depression. The New Deal set up a number of ambitious projects, with different administrators and constituencies, but which functioned together to give comprehensive support and encouragement to art and artists. The largest and most famous of these, the Works Progress Administration's Federal Arts Project (WPA/FAP) which was active from 1935 through 1943, sought to aid artists by employing them to focus on large cities where most already lived. "For the first time in our history the government supports art, assigns tasks to ... More
MEXICO CITY.- A series of remarkable discoveries inside the Tehuacán–Cuicatlán Biosphere Reserve in Puebla is shedding new light on the prehistoric life that once roamed the region. Specialists from Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) have confirmed the presence of multiple dinosaur footprints—belonging to a variety of species—dating back an astonishing 120 million years to the Early Cretaceous period. The findings were first reported by residents of Santa Ana Teloxtoc and surrounding communities after heavy rains eroded sediment layers in September 2025. This natural process exposed the fossilized tracks, prompting INAH paleontologists, led by Iván Alarcón Durán, to survey several sites across the municipalities of Tehuacán and Atexcal. What they found exceeded all expectations. Across three separate localities—Santa Ana Xaloxtoc in Tehuacán, and Santa Catarina Tehuixtla and San Lucas Teteletitlán in Atexcal—researchers documented between fiv ... More

MEXICO CITY.- Mexico City’s deep pre-Hispanic past has surfaced once again—this time in the heart of the bustling La Lagunilla neighborhood. Archaeologists from the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) have uncovered the remains of a domestic dwelling that may help define the ancient limits of the island of Tlatelolco, one of the most important urban centers of the Mexica world. The excavation, located along Eje Central Lázaro Cárdenas in the Guerrero district, began on October 6 and is set to conclude in early December 2025. What began as a routine salvage operation quickly transformed into a significant discovery. Beneath layers of earth, specialists found three human burials, a stone tlecuil—a traditional hearth—and ceramics in the Aztec III style, all tied to Tlatelolco’s late Postclassic occupation (1325–1521). “The fact that we haven’t hit lakebed sediments tells us we are standing on solid ...

LOS ANGELES, CA.- Lisson Gallery Los Angeles is presenting a focused survey of works by renowned Colombian artist Olga de Amaral, marking her first solo exhibition in the city in almost a decade. Spanning from the early 1970s through 2018, the exhibition traces key developments in Amaral’s influential, six-decade career and her singular practice that dissolves the boundaries between weaving, painting, and sculpture. Through landmark works of varying scale and format, the show offers a rare opportunity to engage deeply with Amaral’s unique visual and material language, interlacing linen, wool, horsehair, Japanese paper, acrylic, and precious metals into luminous, sculptural forms that shimmer with historical, spiritual, and environmental resonance. The works on view bear witness to the determined plurality of Amaral’s art since the 1970s. Materials including horsehair, Japanese paper, and gold and palladium leaf combine to produce ... More

VIENNA.- Coin images are among the smallest portraits in the world – yet they tell great stories. Every day, they passed through countless hands, were minted in vast quantities and literally shaped the image of their time. The portrait on a coin was often the one that subjects saw most frequently – a powerful medium of self expression. This made it all the more significant how rulers presented themselves on those few square centimetres; some became true trendsetters. Fashion, power, and identity come together in a very small space: hairstyles, crowns, hats, and collars become symbols of status and style consciousness. The exhibition Head and Shoulders. Coins in Fashion at the Coin Cabinet of the Kunsthistorisches Museum presents nearly 200 coin portraits from a cultural-historical perspective and showcases fashion and lifestyle from over 2,400 years. All exhibits come from the holdings of the Coin Cabinet, which, like no other collection, can illuminate this topic with such a high-qua ... More

ROCHESTER, NY.- The George Eastman Museum is now the permanent home of the papers and creative archive of Agha Jani Kashmiri (1908–1998), one of India’s most celebrated story, screenplay, and dialogue writers, whose work shaped the golden era of Indian cinema from the 1930s through the 1970s. Born in Lucknow, India, a city renowned for its rich artistic and literary traditions, Agha Jani Kashmiri (later known as Aghajani Kashmeri) brought to his writing the elegance, wit, and cultural refinement that defined Lucknow’s heritage. Over a prolific career spanning more than five decades, he wrote or co-wrote the screenplays and dialogue for over 55 films, including such classics as Kismet (1943), Chandralekha (1948), Amar (1954), Chori Chori (1956), Junglee (1961), Mujhe Jeene Do (1963), Love in Tokyo (1966), Khilona (1970), and Parwana (1971). Many of these became enduring hits, helping ... More
Owen Kydd’s recent works continue his interest in images that occupy the space between photography and the moving image—pictures that unfold in real time yet resist the narrative expectations of cinema.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- The exhibition brings together the work of Owen Kydd and Kyle Tata, two Los Angeles based artists based who challenge the boundaries of photographic depiction through materially innovative and conceptually rigorous practices. Owen Kydd’s recent works continue his interest in images that occupy the space between photography and the moving image—pictures that unfold in real time yet resist the narrative expectations of cinema. Each piece begins as an observation: a room, a street, a window, a small arrangement of light and atmosphere. But the camera is only the first step. Once recorded, the image becomes a kind of digital material that can be adjusted, layered, or subtly altered until it behaves less like a document and more like a constructed surface. Kydd aims to create a space where the smallest changes matter—where duration itself becomes the subject. The works offer a ... More
KARLSRUHE.- They are soft, they purr, and they respond to touch and to being spoken to: the ten robot guinea pigs at the first Electronic Petting Zoo, which opened at ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe. Children and adults can test their interaction with lifelike machines here. With the advancement of artificial intelligence, one question in particular is becoming increasingly important: Is it alive or just pretending to be? The free installation in the ZKM foyer is meant to help visitors learn to make this distinction. Interactive technology has long been an integral part of our everyday lives. Whether it's a voice assistant in a smart home, a talking doll, or smart sensors, we are surrounded by objects that appear to be alive. Large language models such as ChatGPT, which pretend to be human counterparts, are only the latest manifestation of anthropomorphic machines. As the 21st century will be increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, the ability to distinguish between ... More
Michael Elmgreen & Ingar Dragset, Andrea Candela, Fig. 1, 2006.
MUNICH.- With their project Handle with Care, Elmgreen & Dragset are inaugurating “Schaufenster,” the Sammlung Goetz’s new exhibition space in Munich. In combination with works by Rosemarie Trockel, Cindy Sherman, Richard Prince and Tom Sachs, a multidimensional parcours is created, prompting questions concerning vulnerability, identity and tensions between private and public space. The Sammlung Goetz will occupy a new temporary exhibition space on Pacellistraße in the heart of Munich: a space with floor-to-ceiling windows in Sep Ruf’s Neue Maxburg shopping arcade. The new location will serve as a showcase, allowing the Sammlung Goetz to remain visible and present during the closure of its main location in Oberföhring. The Scandinavian artist duo Elmgreen & Dragset kicks things off with the exhibition Handle with Care. The ambiguous title refers to the familiar warning ... More

ISTANBUL.- Hera Büyüktaşcıyan’s solo exhibition titled Phantom Quartet opening at Arter offers a comprehensive insight into her artistic practice centred on the notions of identity, memory and nature. The works on display point to the ruptures in urban history through the artist’s personal past rooted in the two neighbourhoods surrounding Arter, namely Kurtuluş and Tarlabaşı. Bringing together the works produced by the artist for this exhibition with a selection of earlier works, some drawn from the Arter Collection, the exhibition explores dualities such as presence and absence, life and death, body and spirit, erasure and reconstruction across four distinct chapters. Curated by Nilüfer Şaşmazer, Phantom Quartet is on view at Arter’s 3rd-floor gallery. Hera Büyüktaşcıyan’s solo exhibition Phantom Quartet held at Arter brings together the artist’s newly produced works for this exhibition, along with a selection of earlier works ... More
COLOGNE.- Zander Galerie is presenting an exhibition of selected works from Lee Friedlander’s acclaimed series Letters from the People. Born in 1934, Friedlander is regarded as one of the most influential photographers of our time and a keen chronicler of the American way of life. His distinctive visual language defies formal conventions, transforming the everyday cacophony of modern life into new aesthetic structures. Through numerous exhibitions—including the seminal New Documents show at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1967 alongside Diane Arbus and Garry Winogrand—and through major international retrospectives, Friedlander’s work has profoundly shaped our understanding of subjective documentary photography. The black-and-white photographs in Letters from the People explore the omnipresence of text and language in public space. Whether on shop windows, ... More

Nairy Baghramian awarded Gold Medal by Art Basel Awards NEW YORK, NY.- Marian Goodman Gallery announced that Nairy Baghramian has won the 2025 Art Basel Awards Gold Award under the category of "Established Artist." Nairy Baghramian’s work traverses the realms of sculpture, installation, photography and drawing with fearless experimentation, historical acuity and conceptual rigor. Particularly in her prime medium of sculpture, the artist employs an extensive repertoire of techniques, materials and forms to address the spatial, architectural, social, political and contextual conditions of contemporary art. Using an abstract vocabulary that often combines geometric shapes and organic matter, industrial process and gestural procedure, Baghramian’s abstract yet eminently allusive works subtly explore the ligatures between art and other fields of object production (most notably interior design, dance and theater) in order to evoke ...

Bluerider ART launches white trilogy of love across three Taipei venues TAIPEI.- White — the end of all colors and the origin of all things. Bluerider ART Taipei·Dunhua presents the White Trilogy of Love: White Realm at Bluerider ART Taipei·Dunhua, White Light at Breeze Center, and White Jade at Hotel MVSA, on view from December 6, 2025 to February 28, 2026. Across a festive season that spans Christmas, New Year, and Lunar New Year, the trilogy unfolds three exhibitions across three distinctive venues, uniting Fine Art, refined taste, and elevated sensibility into one integrated experience. As Nietzsche wrote, “Art is the highest affirmation of life.” Michel Foucault’s concept of the technē of the self posits that one shapes existence through style; Heidegger’s notion of “poetic dwelling” reveals beauty as a mode of being and perceiving. In resonance with these philosophies, the White ... More
Driss Ouadahi merges architecture, ancestral motifs, and modernism in powerful new paintings SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- The Algerian artist Driss Ouadahi studied architecture before attending Düsseldorf's famed Kunstakademie to study painting. Influenced by his experience as an émigré, he’s developed a unique visual vocabulary with which to explore themes of migration, social mobility and “otherness” through a lens of both cultural and personal history. Formally, his is an investigation of line, surface and color to create the illusion of light and three dimensions. Conceptually, he has synthesized structural design with the trope of the modernist grid painting to examine social, political and psychological aspects of the 20th and 21st century. His earlier paintings can be categorized into three discrete types of work -- cityscapes, chain–link fences and tiled passageways -- but the artist sees in them -- along with his newest work -- a single, constantly evolving ...

Paper reinvented: Messums West unveils sculptural installations by Kaori Kato TISBURY.- The exhibitions at Messums West this December again bring focus to the material of paper, highlighting contemporary artists from across the globe who push the boundaries of this seemingly simple and delicate material to create highly complex, detailed, imaginative sculptural works. Beneath the timber beams of the thirteenth-century tithe barn at Messums West, and alongside a series of architectural constructions by Australian artist and filmmaker Daniel Agdag, there is a presentation of new work by Japanese contemporary artist Kaori Kato. Kato’s site-specific installation presented at Messums West following her artist residency in 2023 remains one of Messums’ most highly visited exhibitions and she now returns to Wiltshire from Japan with this new series of work.

New exhibition explores shifting artistic languages from the 1960s to today BERLIN.- Galerie Thomas Schulte is presenting Rotation, a group exhibition featuring eight artists from its program, whose works—spanning from the late 1960s to today—highlight the dynamic exchange of artistic positions within the gallery. Across varied media and approaches, Richard Deacon, Lena Henke, Franka Hörnschemeyer, Matt Mullican, Leunora Salihu, Fred Sandback, Dan Walsh, and Jonas Weichsel explore the interplay of form and system as structuring principles in their artistic practice. Rotation brings together a shifting constellation of voices within the gallery’s history. Here, form and system unfold as mutable conditions—revisited, reconfigured, and reimagined. The exhibition traces an ongoing movement between generations and artistic languages, where each position turns toward another in a continual state of renewal. Engaging with paradoxical situations rather ... More
Kunsthistorisches Museum unveils Oliver Laric's digital dialogue with ancient sculpture VIENNA.- Oliver Laric (born in Innsbruck in 1981) is one of the most internationally renowned artists in the field of digital sculpture and has been working at the interface of art history and technology for many years. In his artistic practice, he explores the fluidity of images and objects in contemporary culture. The solo exhibition in the Collection of Greek and Roman Antiquities at the Kunsthistorisches Museum explores the tension between original, reproduction, and transformation. At its heart is the artist’s idea that even concepts, images, forms, and myths deeply rooted in cultural identity are never complete, but are constantly undergoing further development and recontextualization. ‘Oliver Laric’s stunning sculptures address the intertwined relationship between originality, copies and the nature of translation. His work eloquently draws on the Greek and Roman traditions ... More

On a day like today, American artist Bruce Nauman was born
December 06, 1941. Bruce Nauman (born December 6, 1941) is an American artist. His practice spans a broad range of media including sculpture, photography, neon, video, drawing, printmaking, and performance. Nauman lives near Galisteo, New Mexico. Nauman's use of neon as a medium recurs in his works over the decades. He uses neon to make allusions to the numinous connotations of light, similar to Mario Merz, who used neon to bring new life to assemblages of mundane objects. In this image: Bruce Nauman, Raw War, 1970, neon tubing with clear glass tubing suspension frame, 6 ½ x 17 ½ x 2 ½ in. The Baltimore Museum of Art: Gift of Leo Castelli.
