MADRID.- Acknowledged as a leading genre painter and society portraitist of his day, throughout his career Raimundo de Madrazo y Garreta (Rome, 1841-Versailles, 1920) both witnessed and reflected the tensions and paradoxes of modernity. Madrazo, who settled permanently in Paris at the age of just twenty-one, belonged to the third generation of one of the most renowned families of 19th-century Spanish painters. He soon, however, moved away from the quintessential 19th-century genres, such as mythology and history painting, and also broke with the tradition that obliged artists to follow the official artistic career path in order to participate in the established art circuit. Madrazo thus responded to the preferences of an upper-middle-class clientele that demanded portraits and genre scenes. The former offered the bourgeoisie a way to perpetuate ... More

LONDON.-Varvara Roza Galleries and TRAFFICARTS have announced the first solo exhibition in the UK by the internationally acclaimed artist Britt Boutros Ghali – a seminal figure in postwar abstraction whose body of work spans more than six decades. Born in 1937 in Svolvær, Norway, the earliest years of this powerhouse were spent in the shadow of World War II, and it was during the long postwar winters of her childhood that she first found creative sanctuary via the canvas – the dramatic light shifts of the northern hemisphere a formative influence on her visual language. She has since devoted her entire life to radical self-expression, creating emotive large-scale canvases that merge gestural abstraction and cultural resonance in a near-obsessive pursuit of beauty. Since the early-1970s Ghali has made Egypt her home, dividing her time between studios in Cairo and the North Coast, near Alexandria, and she has had ... More

AMSTERDAM.- Rembrandt based the barking dog in The Night Watch on an early 17th-century drawing by Adriaen van de Venne (1590–1662), as revealed by art historical research carried out as part of Operation Night Watch, the largest and most comprehensive study ever undertaken of Rembrandt’s most famous painting. The remarkable resemblance between Rembrandt’s dog and the dog on the drawing, that has been in the Rijksmuseum collection for over a hundred years, was recently discovered. "It is remarkable that new discoveries are still being made about one of the most studied paintings in the world, almost 400 years after it was made. This finding gives us yet more insight into Rembrandt’s thought processes when creating this work." --Taco Dibbits, General Director Rijksmuseum "When I saw the drawing in an exhibition, ... More
NEW YORK, NY.- In May 1940, as Parisians fled the advancing German Army, Henri Matisse was returning to the French capital. Sick, elderly and stunned by the success of the blitzkrieg, the world-famous artist was compelled to safeguard forty years of artwork. From Paris he returned to his adopted home, the ancient port of Nice on the Mediterranean, where he passed the terrible years of war and occupation. To leave France, he felt, would be a betrayal. Hitler, seeking cultural as well as territorial conquest, had decreed avant- gardism to be “an enemy of the state.” The failed watercolorist-turned- dictator exalted traditionalism over contemporary art, taught Germans to jeer at surrealist, expressionist, and Dadaist works, and to equate artists like Matisse and Picasso with cultural disintegration. Considered “degenerate art,” many Matisse artworks would be removed from galleries and museums and hidden in storage rooms—or worse, stolen by the Nazis. ... More
Deyson Gilbert, figura caminhando em meio a tempestade noturna, from the series Thanateros: img_abstruction_666.gif, 2025. Corten steel, 65,5 x 49,5 x 41 cm. Unique.
SAO PAULO.- Martins&Montero presents Thanateros: img_abstruction_666.gif, a solo exhibition by artist Deyson Gilbert. The title intertwines the mythological figures of Thanatos and Eros—personifications of death and eroticism, respectively—into a single conceptual body. From the fusion of these impulses emerges the term abstruction, a hybrid word that, originating from an occult root, proposes an intersection of four possibilities: abstraction, obstruction, construction and destruction. Within this territory, Gilbert presents a series of sculptures that challenge notions of balance and untouched gesture. His iron pieces, assembled through provisional joints and precarious arrangements, reveal a palpable physical and formal tension. Each sculpture, seemingly abstract, gains figuration through its title—abandoning mute formality to suggest an image. Thus, they resonate on both semantic ... More
Alejandro Piñeiro Bello, Rastro Luminoso, 2025. Oil on linen, 72" × 60" (182.9 cm × 152.4 cm).
HONG KONG.- Pace is presenting an exhibition of new work by Alejandro Piñeiro Bello at its Hong Kong gallery from September 18 to October 18. Titled Solo Quiero Soñar (I Just Want to Dream), this presentation—the artist’s first ever solo exhibition in Hong Kong—brings together ten nightscape paintings created this year. Lush and fantastical, Piñeiro Bello’s new paintings are odes to the magic and wonder of the night, and they reflect his deep and enduring interest in the beauty, chaos, and uncanniness of the natural world. Born in Havana, Cuba in 1990, Piñeiro Bello, who is now based in Miami, Florida, often examines the sociocultural dimensions of the Caribbean and its diaspora in his practice. Using traditional materials such as oil on raw linen or burlap, he forges striking layers of color in his paintings, evoking the natural landscapes and folkloric traditions of the Caribbean. The artist’s abstract and semi-abstract compositions take on otherworldly qualities, reveal ... More
RICHMOND, VA.- The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (VMFA) has recently added a compelling and diverse group of artworks to the museum’s permanent collection. VMFA purchased 165 works of art and received 435 gifts from more than 50 generous donors during fiscal year 2025. “We are overjoyed to continue expanding our comprehensive art holdings at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, which will enrich the lives of Virginians for generations to come,” said VMFA’s Director and CEO Alex Nyerges. “Some of these works will be showcased in the museum’s new wing, which will include expanded galleries for African, American, Indigenous American and 21st-century art.” VMFA’s illustrious permanent collection has grown from 51 works of art at the time of the museum’s founding in 1936 to more than 50,000 works today, spanning 6,000 years of global history. “In the process of expanding VMFA’s permanent collection ...

LONDON.- As part of the programme to make the entire collection of eight million objects accessible online, documentation assistants are undertaking painstaking work to go through the collection. They are checking they are recorded correctly and an entry is created on the Museum's Collection online catalogue which is accessible to the public. The work, supported by the Headley Trust, is bringing new discoveries to the surface and helping the teams learn more about the collection than ever before. In the British Museum's Money and Medals department, rare 17th-century copper Mughal coins have been documented. The collection of Mughal coins is from the reign of Jahangir, the fourth Mughal emperor from 1605–1627. Coinage from his reign is unusual because some were issued with pictorial designs, a major break with Islamic tradition, including figural representations of the zodiac signs of the month they were minted in. The Museum collection of Mughal coins was the first Asian series to receive ... More
For the design of the new building, the architects took their cue from the morphology of the adjacent spa gardens and the former fortifications.
SALZBURG.- In 2021, the architectural firm Berger Parkkinen + was commissioned to construct a new building for the Mozarteum University at the Kurgarten (UMAK) in Salzburg. The building opens in October 2025. The Mozarteum University at the Kurgarten is located directly next to the Paracelsus Bad & Kurhaus, which was also designed by Berger Parkkinen + and completed in 2019. Both buildings now characterise the historic city centre of Salzburg with their clear and distinctive architectural language. For the design of the new building, the architects took their cue from the morphology of the adjacent spa gardens and the former fortifications. The aim was to make the transition from the Baroque grounds of Mirabell Palace to the Wilhelminian-style Markus-Sittikus- Straße tangible. The plans for the Mozarteum University at the Kurgarten did not only relate to the building site itself, but to the entire surroundings of the inner-city ... More
BERLIN.- Esther Schipper announced the representation of Lotus L. Kang. Lotus L. Kang was born 1985 in Toronto. Kang studied fine arts at Concordia University in Montreal (2004-2008), and completed an MFA at the Milton Avery School of the Arts at Bard College, New York, in 2015. The artist lives and works in New York. Lotus L. Kang’s practice unfolds across sculpture, photography and site-responsive installation. Using an acute sensitivity towards process and space, her work reflects on impermanence, inheritance, memory, and time. Taking up questions of “becoming” on expansive terms, she often uses unstable and unfixed materials in a visual language that melds structural, organic and entropic forms to explore self and environment as contingent, continuous and inseparable. The artist often engages these concerns through material misuse and transformation, working with media such as photographic paper and film whose light-sensitive surfaces accrue ... More

ROME.- In the heart of the Eternal City, a vital chapter of its artistic history has been reborn. The Museum of the Roman School, nestled within the magnificent Casino Nobile of Villa Torlonia, reopened last week with a stunning new exhibition, "Glances at the City." After a comprehensive, multi-year renovation, the museum now offers a richer, more intimate journey into the art that blossomed in Rome between the two World Wars. More than just a fresh coat of paint, this re-staging is a complete re-imagining of the collection. The exhibition has been redesigned with a modern and inclusive touch, breaking down the art into thematic sections that tell a story not just of artists, but of the city they inhabited. Visitors are guided through pivotal creative hubs like the "School of Via Cavour" and the "Artists of Villa Strohl Fern," offering a glimpse into the vibrant intellectual and social world that fueled this artistic movement. But the true soul of the exhibition lies in its special focus on ... More
VEVEY.- For its 12th exhibition session, L’Appartement will present two distinct worlds. On one side, Neijuan by Lea Sblandano, winner of the IMAGES VEVEY × ECAL 2024 Award, explores shifting identities between the real and the virtual. On the other side, Nova by Lena Amuat & Zoë Meyer reimagines an imaginary museum through re-photographed scientific objects. Two unique perspectives that question the way we perceive and organize the world: between past and future, rational and irrational, science and fantasy. With their installation Nova, Lena Amuat & Zoë Meyer take over the three rooms of L’Appartement with images from their evolving photographic series. Since 2009, they have documented scientific, historical, or educational artefacts, removed from contextand reimagined. The first room shows customs-confiscated objects, displayed as curiosities stripped of their original meaning. The second invokes the artists’ studio, bringing ... More

Austrian artist Oliver Ressler opens Scenes from the Invention of Democracy at Museum Tinguely BASEL.- Scenes from the Invention of Democracy features the work of Austrian artist Oliver Ressler (b. 1970) who for many years has been operating at the interface of art and activism. The show presents four video works, all of which turn on political, social and environmental issues. Ressler aims to stimulate critical reflection on the status quo while highlighting the options for direct action open to those who seek change. Engaging with subjects such as democracy, work, migration and the environment, all of which are inextricably interwoven and similarly exposed to the impacts of globalisation and capitalism, Ressler trains his critical gaze on political systems, the influence of economics and how we are treating our planet. By documenting protests and acts of civil disobedience, Ressler encourages us to ponder existing power structures as well as the scope for action ... More

A career of uncompromising art: Gianni Asdrubali's retrospective opens in Milan MILAN.- The A arte Invernizzi and Artra galleries are set to inaugurate Gianni Asdrubali. Other Painting, an exhibition curated by Lorenzo Madaro, on Wednesday 24 September 2025 at 6 p.m. The exhibition, arranged across both galleries - with which the artist has cultivated an intense dialogue for decades - is in the form of an anthology that retraces the essential milestones of his artistic research from his earliest days. The two sections are conceived in continuity, with intersections, tangencies and, in some cases, interweavings that keep them in constant conversation. Gianni Asdrubali (b. 1955, Tuscania) has pursued his research with conviction since the early 1980s, maintaining an entirely independent and original course. This has taken him beyond the confines of classification, and at a far remove from any -isms or critical/curatorial points of reference. The only exception ... More
Galerie Ron Mandos opens 'Point Nemo,' a new solo show by artist Jacco Olivier AMSTERDAM.- Galerie Ron Mandos is presenting the new solo exhibition Point Nemo by Dutch artist Jacco Olivier. The exhibition runs through Sunday, October 26. The exhibition brings together a series of new paintings and animations that reflect on isolation and the human search for meaning in life. How far and remote places can be; how we are sometimes bound to one place yet long in our minds for a horizon elsewhere. Olivier’s works move between these extremes: the urge to escape and the inevitable realization that one is always anchored somewhere. The title refers to the most distant point on earth from any mainland: a place without an island, without a buoy, without a landmark. Only water. And yet, in Olivier’s imagination, a rock appears—a hold for thought, a place to land. He created four monumental paintings of this solitary rock in the sea, moving from daylight ... More
The FLAG Art Foundation opens an exhibition of works by Sophia Narrett NEW YORK, NY.- The Spotlight series includes a new or never-before-exhibited artwork paired with a commissioned piece of writing, creating focused and thoughtful conversations between the visual arts and authors, critics, poets, scholars, and beyond. In this iteration, the Spotlight features Sophia Narrett’s These Days Are Mine To Keep, 2025. A text by art journalist and editor Jacoba Urist accompanies the presentation. When I first received the invitation to write about a never-before-exhibited Sophia Narrett work, I envisioned a nymphy, embroidered vortex, where a naked woman is tossed playfully over the shoulders of a man in a white suit [1] or an orgy of brides carouse under a purple cloud canopy [2]. Boogie Nightsmeets A Midsummer Night’s Dream. That we’d be delving into contemporary notions of desire, an area I hadn’t yet had the chance to explore in my writing. ... More
Museum to restore fan favourite WWII tank DORSET.- The Tank Museum plans to return a unique Second World War tank to running condition – but will need to raise over £1 million to fund the project. The Dorset charity is turning to its supporters to fund a project to rebuild and restore the world’s oldest King Tiger tank, which it estimates will take 4 years to complete. “This is the most ambitious project we have ever attempted,” said the Museum’s Vehicle Collections Manager Chris van Schaardenburgh. “We’re fundraising so that the project will not interfere with the core activities of the museum – but we will benefit from the opportunities it offers in research, in developing new skills and will help train the next the next generation of heritage engineers.” The King Tiger tank had been on static display at the Museum since the mid-1950s, until it was sent on a tour of European museums in 2019. In June of this year, a King ... More
Madison Bycroft's first solo Italian exhibition unveils a film of fables and falsehoods ROME.- ADA is presenting Witting Vitium, Madison Bycroft’s first solo exhibition in Italy. The short film The Sauce of All Order orbits the Augur, an Ancient Roman figure whose job it was to interpret specific signs in their environment, and report their interpretations to the state. The signs included the flight pattern of birds, the pecking of sacred chicken, the direction of lightning, unexpected sonic interruptions (a burp or sneeze for example), as well as the close inspection of the entrails of sacrificial animals. Reading the auspices followed a system and strict codes guided interpretation, outlining what was a sign and its meaning. But misinterpretation was frequent, and at times, even purposeful: knowing that an emperor wanted to go to war, an Augur would be a fool to interpret the gods’ will as otherwise. In The Sauce of All Order Felix is on the precipice of his inauguration into the elite ... More

Mine the second installment of the Dan Kennedy Collection of Fine Minerals at Heritage Auctions DALLAS, TX.- When Dan Kennedy’s mother gave him National Geographic as child, she gave him a passion for seeing the world. All parts of it. That passion would fuel everything from taking his children on explorations in the most remote areas of the forest to traveling far reaches of the globe with his wife, Rhonda. It makes sense then, that from an early age until his passing, Kennedy also dug deep into the dazzling range of minerals comprising the earth below his expeditions. And as a man who did nothing small, his vast collection represents his efforts well, both as a curious young collector as well as the passionate collecting he did alongside his wife. The public can now explore more than 200 more of Kennedy’s largest and finest specimens when they go on the block at Heritage in The Dan Kennedy Collection of Fine Minerals Part 2 Signature® Auction Oct. 8 on ...
