Netta Lieber Sheffer, The Sofa, 2018, Charcoal on paper, 8.5 x 8 ft (257 x 245 cm).
NEW YORK, NY.-L’Space Gallery presents Mindscape: Patterns of Identity, a thought-provoking exhibition exploring the intricate landscapes of memory and the unconscious through paintings and drawings. Running from November 21st, 2024, to January 25th, 2025, the exhibition features the works of four distinguished artists—Netta Lieber Sheffer, Ido Michaeli, Moran Kliger, and Maya Perry. This exhibition, developed in collaboration between L’Space Gallery’s founder and director, Lili Almog, and curators Noa Rabinovich Lalo and Carolina Werebe, offers a personal yet culturally resonant exploration of how the past shapes the unconsciousness. Mindscape centers on the concept of patterns—ranging from ethnographic and historical motifs to intimate, psychological forms—that serve as markers of memory and tools for navigating the unknown. Drawing on Carl Jung’s theory of the collective unconscious and Sigmund Freud& ... More
ZURICH.- The largest survey exhibition of Günther Förg’s works on paper, spanning over 30 years, is on view at Hauser & Wirth Zurich, Limmatstrasse. Förg’s works on paper were an integral part of his multi-disciplinary practice (which comprised drawing, painting, photography and sculpture) and ran parallel to his works on canvas. Executed in a variety of materials, from watercolor, acrylic and oil to charcoal, chalk and ink, these creations are considered works in their own right; instead of using them as preparatory sketches for paintings, the artist would often be inspired to paint and draw on paper after experimenting with his large-scale canvases. The exhibition includes well-known series, including his Grid, Color Field, Grey and Spot works, alongside lesser-known pieces, such as early works on paper from his studies in ... More

Ron Norsworthy, Vanitas (Double Self Portrait as a Goldfish and a Vase), 2024. Courtesy of Ron Norsworthy and Edwynn Houk Gallery.
NEW YORK, NY.- Edwynn Houk Gallery is presenting I, Narcissus, an exhibition of new work by Ron Norsworthy. Centered around Norsworthy’s long standing interest in spatial poetics, narrative and allegory, these eleven works provide an extended reflection on both the personal experience and social construction of beauty, while also reconsidering narcissism as a virtue of self-love. Expressed through Norsworthy’s distinctive process of creating digital collages and then translating them into three-dimensional form—what he calls paintings—the works oscillate between their photographic illusion and the transparency of their making. Norsworthy uses the myth of Echo and Narcissus as a thematic point of departure for the exhibition, reinterpreting the myth’s central narrative thread through a contemporary sensibility. Originating from Ovid’s ... More
As part of its 205th-anniversary celebrations, the Prado is launching an international microliterature contest, inviting participants to craft stories inspired by one of five selected works from its collection.

Huguette Caland.
PARIS.- Mennour is presenting the first exhibition of Huguette Caland (1931-2019), the successful outcome of its collaboration with the artist’s Estate, announced in June 2024. A key figure in the Lebanese Golden Sixties, Huguette Caland belongs to the same generation as Shafic Abboud, Etel Adnan, Simone Fattal and Saloua Raouda Choucair. However, her free and protean work however has little visible presence in France even though she lived, worked and exhibited there between 1970 and 1987. This original retrospective exhibition focuses on those decisive and fruitful years during which Caland made some of her greatest works. It will highlight the boldness, dynamism, mischief and beauty of Caland’s art adventure by gathering for the first time an exceptional body of nearly fifty major works, of which twenty-four paintings—among them works from the famous series “Bribes de corps [Body Parts]” from the 1970s—as well as nineteen works on paper and two kaftans—one ...

The artist’s familiar motifs appear to reference the natural world, yet reject specificity.
LONDON.- The Approach is presenting Other Place, an exhibition of new paintings by Glenn Goldberg. Born in The Bronx, Glenn Goldberg was exposed to the anti-establishment sentiments of 1970s’s America; a time when socio-political concerns took precedence over academic and professional aspirations. For Goldberg, it was a continuation of the 1960’s counterculture in which music, drugs, sex, peace and love flourished alongside political protest. The dream-like iconography of Goldberg’s paintings captures the spirit of this time, when fantasy and invention assumed a social significance and spiritual intention. Each work, recurringly titled “An Other Place”, draws from the artist’s invention and structural inclination, referring to a place that is unknown and, as Goldberg states, “more there than here”. The artist’s familiar ... More

BEAUNE.- Yesterday, at the historic Hospices de Beaune wine sale in Burgundy, leading names Dominic West, Eva Longoria, Jean Reno and Zabou Breitman took to the rostrum to rally a 700-strong crowd to up ever further their bids for a unique barrel of exceptional wine, produced from a special plot and sold to benefit Médecins Sans Frontières and Global Gift Foundation of America.

HELSINKI.- Amos Rex will host three unique exhibitions in 2025, challenging visitors’ notions of reality and opening up new ways of experiencing art. Anna Estarriola and Leandro Erlich play with the limits of space and perception, using illusion and perspective to form new spatial entities. Enni-Kukka Tuomala’s Studio exhibition invites visitors to consider our ways of thinking, feeling and moving through the world and to inhabit other realities. In the spring, Amos Rex presents the exhibition Staged Circumstances and Piles of Things by Catalonia-born, Helsinki-resident Anna Estarriola (b. 1980). In Estarriola’s art, the impossible becomes ambiguous and our ways of perceiving reality are pondered from several different angles. The multidimensional installations draw from science and different belief systems and describe efforts towards communication, understanding and cooperation, as well as the moments of uncertainty and failure that ...

James Kennedy, Superstructure, 2024. Acrylic polymer on incised eucalyptus masonite, 71 x 81 inches.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Dolby Chadwick Gallery is presenting Crystalline Velocity, an exhibition of recent paintings by James Kennedy. Think about it: we are already a quarter of the way through the 21st century, meaning that we have witnessed many astounding and sometimes frightening changes to the fabric of our social world. With the emergence and impending proliferation of Artificial Intelligence, it is a safe bet that the next twenty-five years will further exaggerate the velocity of social change, even if it leads to a yet-to-be imagined spiral into oblivion. In other words, the punch-and-slap that the Italian Futurists celebrated over a century ago have since become unassailable facts of 21st century life. Stable certitudes have been displaced by the spiraling proliferation of information networks that defy description. Artistic responses to these circumstances vary. On one hand, many artists create slap-happy productions that use absurd ... More
Anne Marie Jehle (1937–2000) Untitled, 1975, Sheet Brass, 117 x 60 x 9.5 cm, Kunstmuseum St.Gallen, Donation of Anne Marie Jehle Stiftung, 2021. Photo: Stefan Rohner.
ST.GALLEN.- The visionary work of the Austrian-Liechtenstein artist Anne Marie Jehle (Feldkirch, 1937–2000, Vaduz) encompasses a wide range of media including sculpture and installation, painting, drawing, photography and text. A critical examination of social structures and power dynamics, especially those concerning female identity and gender roles, lies at the core of her practice. Jehle gained international recognition in the 1970s, when her work was situated within the context of the feminist avant-garde and the Fluxus movement. In the mid 1980s, she withdrew from public life, abruptly halting her artistic career. Her ability to transform everyday objects and personal experiences into powerful works of art gives her work a continued relevance, especially amid today’s discussions on gender and self-determination in art. To mark a generous donation from the Anne ... More

Co-curator Maria Heinrich and spatial designer Frank Bruggeman set up the exhibition as a garden in itself.

Several Rotterdam examples are also included: ... More
Callum Innes' first solo exhibition with Berggruen Gallery opens in San Francisco SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Berggruen Gallery is presenting Callum Innes: Where To Start, an exhibition of new works by Scottish painter Callum Innes. This show marks Callum Innes’ first solo exhibition with the gallery. Where To Start exhibits a series of major works by Callum Innes grappling with themes of time, space, and fragility. Featuring work from his acclaimed Exposed Painting series, Innes' alchemical color process of layering paint and dissolving it with turpentine, reveals unpredictable and often unreplicable colors onto canvas and wood. What appear to be works of monochrome and precision, contain buried veils of pigmentation - traces of color emerge, change, and are obscured under layers of painting and repainting. Marks of color twist over the sides of each work mirroring the way paint spills onto the floors and ... More

Karma NY presents Henni Alftan 'Stop Making Sense' NEW YORK, NY.- Henni Alftan’s oil paintings are often recursive, commenting on the conditions of their existence both as individual paintings and as associatively linked to one another. Working with images that are, in her words, “not realistic but offer a plausible suggestion of the visible world,” she explores how painting’s essential elements—such as color, form, and composition—can convey maximal subtext with minimal visual information. The works in Stop Making Sense both propose continuity and refute it, with certain canvases echoing and framing the other as they revel in the tensions created when an image’s promise of wholeness is disrupted. In Alftan’s renderings of portals and mirrors, space is flattened, compressing image and substrate into a single surface: we can rarely see through them, and when we do, the subject on the other side ...

'Teresa Solar Abboud: Bird Machine Dream' opens at MACBA Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona BARCELONA.- Bird Machine Dream encompasses various moments in the trajectory of artist Teresa Solar Abboud (Madrid, 1985). The exhibition immerses us in a body of work that questions notions of reality, verisimilitude and fiction, comprising an artistic universe brimming with things that are not what they seem. It is a space where hybrid forms and chromatic alterations suggest a world situated between the simulated—phantasmagorical and the corporeal—geological. Using figures reminiscent of organic elements, Solar Abboud creates a dream-like dimension in order to envision stories around isolation, connectivity and metamorphosis that appeal to a fragmented contemporary subject in constant flux. In times when everything seems disembodied, the work of Solar Abboud transports us through a sensorial experience to ... More

On a day like today, Italian painter Giorgio de Chirico died
November 20, 1978. Giorgio de Chirico (July 10, 1888 - November 20, 1978) was a Greek-born Italian artist. In the years before World War I, he founded the scuola metafisica art movement, which profoundly influenced the surrealists. After 1919, he became interested in traditional painting techniques, and worked in a neoclassical or neo-Baroque style, while frequently revisiting the metaphysical themes of his earlier work. In this image: Italian artist Giorgio de Chirico stands in front of one of his paintings in his apartment in Rome, Italy on Feb. 12, 1955.
