VIENNA.- Terminal Piece is an exhibition in five acts, anchored by a single artwork: the installation Terminal Piece (1972) by artist, activist, and author Kate Millett. As the first addition to the collection made under mumok’s new directorship, it foregrounds the act of viewing itself—asking not only what is seen, but from where, and on which side of the work one stands. Millett, one of the defining feminist voices of her generation, believed in art’s capacity to produce moments of intense, direct experience. The exhibition asks what this idea still means today. Who is watching? Who is seen? Where do we position ourselves? These reflections become a lens for considering some 400 artworks, rooted in mumok’s collection, in dialogue with loans and new commissions. The exhibition is an invitation to explore embodied attention and discover new ways of seeing: Encountering art is never passive. To look is to participate. Each floor develops as a distinct a ...

Archduchess Marie Christine of Austria (Habsburg-Lorraine) Reading a Letter, 2nd half of the 18th century, 23.9 × 19.3 cm, Watercolor. ALBERTINA, Vienna.
VIENNA.- The ALBERTINA is celebrating its 250th anniversary with Sammeln für die Zukunft — Collecting for the Future, a major exhibition that looks back at the museum’s origins while asking what it means to build a collection for generations still to come. On view from June 19 through October 11, 2026, in the Propter Homines Hall, the exhibition brings together around 90 works, including drawings, prints and objects from the museum’s holdings, alongside a new work by the artist Rosa Barba created especially for the anniversary. Curated by Ralph Gleis and Christof Metzger, the exhibition presents the ALBERTINA not only as one of the world’s great art collections, but as a living institution shaped by changing ideas of knowledge, preservation, access and public responsibility. The story begins in July 1776, when Conte Giacomo Durazzo, the Austrian envoy in Venice, presented Duke Albert of Saxe-Teschen and Archduchess Marie Christine of Habsburg-Lorraine with a ... More

GEELONG.- One hundred years later, Geelong Gallery – in partnership with Art Exhibitions Australia and ACPA Advising Curating Producing Art – presents one of the most ambitious exhibitions in its 130-year history as part of an international program commemorating the centenary of Monet's death with Discovering the Impressionists: Paul Durand-Ruel, Art Dealer Among the Artists. Spanning two generations of Impressionist painters, the exhibition also tells the remarkable story of the man who risked everything to ensure their work survived. To mark the opening, curators Marianne Mathieu and Claire Durand-Ruel are in Geelong this week — two of the world's foremost authorities on Impressionism,. Mathieu, former Scientific Director of the Musée Marmottan Monet, previously curated Monet's Garden for the NGV in 2013 and Monet: Impression Sunrise for the National Gallery of Australia in 2019. Her co-curator, Claire Durand-Ruel, is the great-granddaughter of Paul Durand-Ruel himself, whose ac ... More
BERLIN.- For more than five decades, Gabriele Stötzer has been grappling with questions of justice, self-determination and gender while critically examining societal power relations. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, she was active in the artistic underground of the GDR, but it’s only in the last few years that her cross-disciplinary practice has received wider attention in the art world. In 2026, Gropius Bau presents her largest institutional solo show to date, Dabei sein und nicht schweigen, developed in close collaboration with Stötzer herself. In October the same year, the artist will receive the Goslarer Kaiserring, one of the world’s most prestigious art prizes. Gabriele Stötzer is also one of the key artistic voices in the programme marking the 75th anniversary of the Berliner Festspiele. For this occasion, she has created a poster in an exclusive special edition, which will be available ... More

MUNSTER.- With You may not want to be here, the Kunsthalle Münster is presenting Zauri Matikashvili’s first institutional solo exhibition, thus offering insight into the work of the Georgian artist. Alongside his latest two-channel installation Passing the Glass (2026), which is premiering as part of the show, two of Matikashvili’s earlier films, In Katernberg (2022) and Made in Europe (2023), are also on view. The cinematic works are complemented by his sculptural series entitled You may not want to be here (since 2024), with works distributed over the entire exhibition space, entering in dialogue with his films. Matikashvili uses his camera to attest to contemporary stories, to record social, political and historical events, and challenge given societal structures. From a variety of perspectives, he looks at topics such as identity, traditional gender roles, segregation, belonging, disunity, racism and increasing repression. In his works, he examines in which ... More
BERLIN.- The gray-blue Pontiac in the garage might be new. They may have saved for it a long time, or taken out a loan. The father may have been away on a business trip for a few days, coming home only the evening before. Or maybe they just wanted to take the family photo for the Christmas card. We don't know the story behind the image. What we know is that it shows a family of four, gathered somewhere in Texas — the car's license plate, at least, points that way — to be photographed. And yet, with the exception of one red-haired boy, nobody is actually looking at the camera. Everyone is doing their own thing. It is the kind of photograph that stops you. Who took it remains unknown. That is precisely the subject of No Place Like Home presented by The Anonymous Project, initiated by artist Lee Shulman, on view at Fotografiska Berlin from June 20 through November 1, 2026. Shulman, who lives and works in Paris, has spent years gathering roughly a million abandoned slides ... More
ROTTERDAM.- Last Thursday, 18 June, Nieuwe Instituut — the Netherlands’ national museum and institute for architecture, design and digital culture in Rotterdam — opened not one, but two new exhibitions. Each brings the National Collection for Dutch Architecture and Urban Planning – which is managed by Nieuwe Instituut – to life in its own distinct way. The new Collection Gallery is an interactive, hybrid space featuring projections, mirrored panels, scale models and drawings from the National Collection. Visitors will embark on a journey of discovery through 150 years of stories about the design of the Dutch built environment. Many of these themes remain relevant today, including housing shortages, colonial architecture, garden cities, computer-aided design and the role of female architects. Visitors are in control and during the three years on show, objects will be rotated and stories will be added, in response to current events. This ensures there is always something ne ... More

TRANI .- The new multimedia and experiential itinerary at the Swabian Castle of Trani was officially unveiled. The project marks a new phase in the interpretation and visitor experience of one of Apulia’s most representative monuments. The initiative forms part of a broader and more complex strategy of conservation, reorganization, cataloging, digitization, and redevelopment of the site’s historical and artistic heritage, conceived and coordinated by architect Anita Guarnieri, and is mainly focused on three new exhibition installations created by the Milan-based studio Dotdotdot.

NEW PALTZ, NY.- The Museum of Modern Art has acquired five prints by the influential Hudson Valley artist and revered former SUNY New Paltz professor Ben Wigfall (1930–2017) for its permanent collection. Born in Richmond, Virginia, Ben Wigfall was an artist, educator and community organizer whose work bridged abstraction, printmaking and social engagement. He taught in New Paltz’s Department of Art from 1963 to 1991 and founded the Communications Village art space in Kingston, New York. The MoMA acquisition includes the following works: • “Tall Man Just Long and Tall” (Intaglio, 1971) • “Nine Part Black Theme” (Viscosity print, 1971) • “Signs” (Intaglio, 1993) • “Ever Since” (Intaglio, 1973) • “Car Car” (Intaglio, 1993) This marks another significant milestone in the rapidly increasing posthumous recognition of Wigfall’s artistic legacy, in which the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art at SUNY New Paltz has ...

SHENZHEN.- The inaugural edition of the Shenzhen Art and Technology Biennale opened to the public from May 30, 2026, to April 30, 2027 at Shenzhen International Museum of Art (SIMoA). With its theme A Glimpse of the Infinite, this edition is directed by Zikang Zhang, curated by Naiyi Wang and Mónica Bello, and brings together over fifty international artists, scientists and researchers to explore the quantum condition of perception—where observation is never passive but an act of intervention that collapses possibilities into a single, fleeting present. Drawing on quantum mechanics, the biennial posits that what appears is only a fraction of what is. Every definition casts its shadow; what remains unsaid sinks into the dark. Existence is a perpetual deferral of appearance, and certainty is merely the accidental condensation of probabilities, arrested by the act of looking. The works in the exhibition do not offer answers ... More

Simian opens solo exhibitions by Cyprien Gaillard and Lea Porsager in Copenhagen COPENHAGEN.- Simian announces two solo exhibitions by Cyprien Gaillard and Lea Porsager, both presented in collaboration with Yonder, Art•Science, at the Niels Bohr Institute. While distinct in form and methodology, both exhibitions trace how landscapes and objects carry the accumulated marks of intervention, extraction and collapse. Désespoir des Singes is the first major exhibition in Denmark by French artist Cyprien Gaillard. It brings together a large, newly composed, selection of Polaroids photographed between 2006 and 2012, depicting buildings, monuments, ruins, parks, and landscapes at sites marked by ambition, transformation and decay. The images are presented on specially designed displays, suspended from the space’s numerous pillars and held in curved formations by piano wire and clavichord tuning pegs. Arranged in groupings of nine, like ... More
City Curator Hamburg presents FIRE HAMBURG.- FIRE is the second exhibition in the City Curator series From the Cosmos to the Commons: Five Years—Five Elements. The series focuses on the elemental forces of Cosmos (2025), Fire (2026), Air (2027), Earth (2028), and Water (2029), dedicating one year to each. Together, they invite us to look toward the horizon of a planetary public sphere, guided by a sense of the not-yet—a felt awareness of what might emerge. FIRE engages with the origins of the term “apocalypse,” derived from the Greek Apokalypsis (ἀποκάλυψις), meaning “revealing” or “uncovering”. In this sense, the apocalypse is not a distant event but an ongoing condition. Beyond Western frameworks, Indigenous communities and other historically marginalized peoples have long used apocalyptic narratives to describe experiences of world-ending trauma, including colonization, ...

Kunsthalle Recklighausen prize winners exhibit at Villa Romana FLORENCE.- The “junger westen” art prize winners Jeewi Lee, Mona Schulzek and Jeehye Song, from the collection of Kunsthalle Recklinghausen, presented at Villa Romana in Florence. Curated by Nico Anklam. It was a bright blue sparkle, like a cold fire, reflected on shimmering age-old stones in the dark that were wet from the sea. Having remained largely hidden since antiquity, the Blue Grotto was rediscovered in 1826 and fueled a romantic obsession of German artist in the 19th century. The sea-filled cave on Capri, illuminated by sunlight entering through an underwater opening, became the subject of many artworks to come. But it was particularly the early ones such as those by Heinrich Jakob Fried (1835) that talk about the fascination with the physical world and its visual phenomena. They evoke the poetry of water, stone, and light, and allow us to travel to any ... More
Collective hosts Scottish premiere of Katie Paterson's 'Afterlife' installation EDINBURGH.- This summer, Collective shares a solo presentation by internationally acclaimed Scottish artist Katie Paterson, as her new work Afterlife is exhibited in Scotland for the first time.

CHERUBY presents A Pop-up of A Pop-up summer programme SHANGHAI.- In a cultural landscape that constantly competes for attention, what is the role of the pop-up? Is it a celebration, a satire, or a form that has become content in itself? When a notification appears on a phone, it arrives as an alert loaded with content. Increasingly, there is more content about content than content itself. Streams of gameplay, reaction videos, reviews, and commentary all function as forms of para-content: content that circulates around other content. A Pop-up of A Pop-up becomes a form of para-content IRL. It invites participation, disrupting the binary between consumption and production. Rather than producing a stable object of attention, para-content continually redirects attention through circulation, response, and reproduction. Meaning is generated not solely through the original content itself, but through the relations, interpretations, ... More

This installation offers a reflection on the universal dimension of spirituality, beyond any religious differences, emphasizing that which unites human beings. In this work, five performers wearing costumes associated with the main world religions perform ... More
Para Site presents four commissioned performances across Hong Kong HONG KONG.- As part of Para Site’s thirtieth-anniversary celebrations, Elsewhere in Me presents four newly commissioned performances across Hong Kong. Inspired by the organisation’s evolving identities, and the generations of artists who have navigated the shifting local landscape since 1996, the series explores what can emerge from the act of finding one’s way. Unfolding episodically over the next six months, four artists—Yim Sui Fong, River Lin, Tong Wenmin, and Justin Talplacido Shoulder (Phasmahammer)—traverse diverse locations, seek out spaces between thresholds, and make room for unexpected encounters. Here, art becomes a continuous negotiation with the city and those who live it. Elsewhere in Me centres this group of artists as active wayfinders, reinhabiting and reimagining our urban condition through their multi-faceted ... More

C/O Berlin explores how digital images seduce, mislead and shape us BERLIN.- C/O Berlin presents the exhibition The Lure of the Image from Jun 20 to Sep 2, 2026. How do images bait or beguile us as they circulate online? How do they compel, capture, or control us? The fourteen artists presented in this exhibition engage with visual phenomena that serve as vehicles for online communication, criticism, and humor. They highlight the crucial role images play in shaping our social, cultural, and political landscapes. The Lure of the Image invites visitors to explore the visual worlds of social media feeds, dating app profiles, beauty filters, memes, ASMR videos, “cute” and “cursed” images, emojis, computer-generated imagery, and pixelated screenshots used for conspiracy or protest. The artworks track the complex mechanisms of the lure in digital space, shedding light on how images and their underlying structures—from algorithms to datasets— ... More
