ATHENS, GA.- If you weren’t looking at your phone, you could easily walk straight through Nancy Baker Cahill’s artwork “Margin of Error” and not even realize it. That’s the opposite of how things usually work, but Baker Cahill’s art installation exists in augmented reality (AR), viewable through your smart device. This work and more are being presented at the Georgia Museum of Art at the University of Georgia this fall, in the exhibition “Nancy Baker Cahill: Through Lines” (October 28, 2023 – May 19, 2024). This mid-career survey exhibition, organized by Kathryn Hill, associate curator of modern and contemporary art at the Georgia Museum of Art, is Baker Cahill’s first solo museum show. Expanding upon her background in traditional media, the artist redefines the possibilities of drawing in contemporary art. She begins with finely rendered graphite drawings that evolve into torn paper scul ... More
VIENNA.- The extensive presentation illustrates not only the radicalism with which the Vienna-born painter and graphic artist kept transforming his style but also the substantial contribution he made to modern art. Featuring around 180 exhibits, the presentation Max Oppenheimer. Expressionist Pioneer sheds light on the artist’s largely unknown oeuvre and taps into the wealth of his motifs, ranging from portraits and religious themes, via still lifes to music depictions. The artist attracted attention early on, and exhibited his works all over Europe. While his successful career frequently took him abroad between 1912 and 1932, he invariably returned to Vienna. He became acquainted with numerous protagonists of Modernism, including Oskar Kokoschka, Egon Schiele, Paul Cassirer, Adolf Loos and Sigmund Freud, and explored trend-setting art movements, such as ...

NEW YORK, NY.- His day began at 6 a.m. with a call to Amsterdam from his office in Vancouver, British Columbia. An hour later he gave an online lecture to a class in Ireland, immediately followed by a call with a scientist in Boston about research. Dr. Michael R. Hayden is one of the world’s leading geneticists, the recipient of many of medicine’s highest awards and the founder of five biotechnology companies who, at 71, still teaches at the University of British Columbia. To spend a day with him in October was to witness a whirlwind of endless activity. And yet Hayden also sets aside four to five hours each week to focus on a pursuit as important to him as his pioneering discoveries in neurodegeneration: ... More

NEW YORK, NY.-Hindman’s first ever New York season of auctions achieves a combined total of $5,333,517 across the 295 lots sold. Over 2,000 bidders from 49 countries registered for the four sales and over 40% of buyers were first-time clients to Hindman. There was active participation across all sales channels, and absentee, online, and energetic bidding took place from clients of all ages. Additionally, two world auction records were set for artists LaToya Ruby Frazier (born 1982) and Francis Speight (American, 1896-1989). “We were thrilled with the excitement surrounding our very first New York auctions.

by Michael Govan
LOS ANGELES, CA.- Robert Irwin, who died last week in San Diego, at 95, had one of the most restless, inquiring minds of any artist I have ever known. As the story goes, in 1966 he stepped back from one of his very ethereal, so-called abstract “dot paintings” — composed of small dots of near-complementary colors — and realized that the visceral, rather than optical phenomenon created by the painting was not the painting itself but rather the real and beautiful shadow cast by the canvas against the wall. He never made another painting. From that point forward he wanted to make works of art without frames, without limits, which he did, continually questioning the very nature of art in almost every visionary work he made. Irwin coined a term, “conditional art,” for his practice. Sometimes nearly invisible, his art was always a function of the circumstances of its being. In graduate school at the University of California, San Diego, I walked every day beneath one of his most si ... More

A photo provided by Ian Curtis shows the second “fairy bridge” to appear within a month at the Stiffkey marshes, one of the biggest areas of salt marsh in Europe, in Norfolk County, England. (Ian Curtis via The New York Times)
by Jenny Gross
LONDON.- A small, beloved footbridge in the county of Norfolk has been dismantled twice only to be replaced by “local fairies,” according to village lore, in a long-running dispute between a coastal English village and the National Trust, a conservation charity. The bridge, which provides a pathway to beloved salt marshes on the English coast, had been used for more than 50 years until the National Trust took it down last year, citing safety concerns. Villagers received no warning of the plans to remove a crucial route, said Ian Curtis, a resident campaigning to have the bridge replaced. “There was an outcry in the village — ‘They've took our bridge down, we can’t get on the marsh!’” Curtis said. He said the National Trust, which owns the salt marshes, was being heavy-handed, and compared the dynamic between the Stiffkey villagers and the group to that of peasants and the ... More
Diana Al-Hadid, from the exhibition 'Women, Bronze, and Dangerous Things' on view at Kasmin Sculpture Garden.
NEW YORK, NY.- Diana Al-Hadid’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, Women, Bronze, and Dangerous Things, will span both 509 West 27th Street and the Kasmin Sculpture Garden from November 2–December 22, 2023. Featuring an extensive new body of work developed over the last five years, the exhibition underscores the artist’s singular approach to relief and large-scale sculpture alongside a new series of mixed media drawings on Mylar, as well as works on paper pulp developed as part of her residency at Dieu Donné, New York. Known for her evocative transformations of industrial materials such as fiberglass, gypsum, steel, and bronze, Al-Hadid’s works engage with thematic references across the fields of antiquity, folklore, architecture, manuscripts, cartography, and cosmology, among other subjects, as a way of communing with the present. Across Al-Hadid’s use of motifs in this exhibition—which includes figures fro ... More

DUBAI.-Lawrie Shabibi has commenced the much-anticipated exhibition Tethys by renowned Lebanese American artist Nabil Nahas, in conjunction with the reopening of our gallery space. The exhibition will take the viewer on a journey through the boundless world of colour, texture, and imagination. Nabil Nahas, drawing inspiration from his Mediterranean roots —reconnecting to the places of his childhood, Lebanon and Egypt and a deep affinity for the human soul— explores these themes through the lens of colour, texture, and the enigmatic world of nature. He takes cues from celestial and marine phenomena, creating multi-layered paintings that evoke a sense of biomorphic and organic forms. Nahas's artistic expression is rooted in abstract geometry and three-dimensional explorations, playing with scale to invite visitors to delve into microcosmic worlds within the canvas. Nabil ... More
NEW YORK, NY.-Gagosian is now going to present 'Let the painting make you', an exhibition of new paintings and drawings by Brice Marden (1938–2023) opening today at 980 Madison Avenue in New York. The exhibition features a group of large paintings that Marden made in his studio in Tivoli, New York, in 2023, along with sixteen recent drawings that he made on the Caribbean island of Nevis and in Marrakech, Morocco. The paintings are characterized by weblike linear networks that cover variously colored grounds, and the group has a raw, spontaneous look, showing Marden drawing on intuition honed over a lifetime. These final works convey his idea of letting the paintings “make” us. Marden was inspired by a broad range of art historical sources and spiritual traditions, and by experience gleaned through extensive travel. Allied with references to the natural world, these resources inspired ... More

NEW YORK, NY.-Tanya Bonakdar Gallery is presenting Shilpa Gupta’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, on view in New York from October 27th to December 16th, 2023. The exhibition includes a new sound installation, along with sculptural objects and drawings addressing her continued concerns around language, censorship, mobility, risks, and the power of resilience. The central work in the exhibition is a new sound installation titled Listening Air. This in-motion installation includes suspended microphones, each counterbalanced by a dimly lit light fixture, orbiting throughout the darkened gallery and between visitors. Subverting their connotations, the microphones-turned-speakers make audible words that have traversed landscapes of fields, forests, streets, and universities. Interested in the potential ... More

BERLIN.-Artefact.Berlin announces the first solo show by Brazilian, Berlin-based
artist Caterina Renaux Hering, following her recent graduation at Universita der Kunste (UDK) in Berlin. Blushing out of Blue, will be on view from November 3, 2023 – December 20, 2023, unveiling new and site-specific pieces, ranging from dainty drawings to ceramic sculptures, expressing the artist’s sensibility towards crafting a distinctive language with shapes, senses, and exploration of materiality. Blushing out of Blue will debut a series of distinct drawings, on paper, inside resin and cast in silicone, engulfing the gallery into the very essence of Renaux Hering’s subject, genuine sensation. The diverse expression from a range of mediums allows the artist to craft narratives, diving deeper into the sensuality of the subject, ultimately becoming mystifying surfaces for generating sentiments. Working within the existing materia ... More
Meleko Mokgosi | Spaces of Subjection: Black Painting V, 96 x 72 x 2 inches. Oil on canvas, 2022.
NEW YORK, NY.-Jack Shainman Gallery is opening an exhibition of recent work by Meleko Mokgosi for his ongoing project Spaces of Subjection (2020–present). Comprised of paintings and prints, this project examines the notions of space outside of the confines of figuration and perspectival representation. Spaces of Subjection brings together the scope of historiography, human versus non-human, ancestral and indigenous histories, contours of divination, processes of socialization, discursive spaces that are constitutive of imagining (such as Black romanticism), and gaps that distinguish realism from magical realism, and surrealism from capriccio. Meditating on references ranging from Maya Angelou’s lecture “Rainbow in the Clouds,” James Baldwin’s film Take This Hammer, Michel Foucault’s treatise “The Subject and Power,” Beverly Jenkins’ romance novels, Michael Kelly’s analysis of aesthetic philoso ...

Castello di Rivoli, Turin, Michelangelo Pistoletto at 90, a site-specific exhibition of new work TURIN.-Castello di Rivoli presents a major exhibition dedicated to Michelangelo Pistoletto (Biella, 1933) on the occasion of his ninetieth birthday. Set up in the vast spaces of the Manica Lunga wing of the castle, Pistoletto’s Molti di uno (Many from One) reinvents the linear picture gallery architecture of the Manica Lunga, transforming it into an irregular and free-form urban device through which to collect and reread all his art in a gigantic self-portrait which works like the map of an ideal city of the future. “Pistoletto is one of the most multifaceted, innovative, creative and visionary figures of contemporary art on a global level,” says Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, Director of Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea. “Already active in the second half of the twentieth century, he is capable of reimagining the world in the twenty-first century through his ‘formula of creation’, in th ...

For final exhibition of 2023, Sullivan+Strumpf Naarm, Melbourne is presenting 'Gregory Hodge: Through Surface' MELBOURNE.- In 2019, Australian artist Gregory Hodge moved to Paris for a residency with the Cité Internationale des Arts, making a home for himself and his family in the French capital. Once the residency was over, they decided to stay and Hodge has called the city home ever since. Influenced by his time there, the artist’s highly sought-after, richly textured paintings bear witness to his potent artistic evolution and adaptable visual language. Hodge’s work has long examined illusionistic painting and the tradition of Trompe l'oeil mimicry – how paint can mimic other surfaces. His compositions oscillate between abstraction and figuration, layering personal, everyday source material with painterly gestural marks ... More

The Met Opera puts on a Malcolm X marathon NEW YORK, NY.- For 18 hours on a rainy Sunday this Halloween weekend, the Metropolitan Opera House was visited by the ghost of Malcolm X. Words made famous by the Black nationalist leader and civil rights figure in his classic autobiography, dictated to Alex Haley and posthumously published in 1965, could be heard echoing throughout the soaring lobby of the Lincoln Center theater. It was a welcomed haunting, conjured by the Met in conjunction with a new production of Anthony Davis’ opera “X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X,” which premieres Friday. From 6 a.m. until a little after midnight, a starry lineup of Malcolm surrogates — including his daughter Dr. Ilyasah Shabazz, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Michael R. Jackson and actor Leslie Odom Jr. — read from the autobiography continuously and in its roughly 500- ... More
'Evidence for Contact' catalogs outsider artist Ken Grimes's visionary works on extraterrestrial life BOCA RATON, FL.- Over several decades, noted outsider artist Ken Grimes has developed his singular style—using text, numbers, symbols, and geometric shapes painted primarily in stark black and white—to prompt his audience to consider the possibilities and implications of alien contact with Earth. Evidence for Contact: Ken Grimes 1993 - 2021 (Anthology Editions, Hard Cover US$45) showcases the artist's nearly forty-year painting career, with an accompanying exhibition of Grimes’s work opening October 26, 2023, at Ricco/Maresca Gallery New York. Grimes’s work will also be presented at Parrasch Heijnen Gallery in Los Angeles on January 16, 2024, and at Galerie Christian Berst in Paris on February 8, 2024.

Exhibition of recent work by Robert Kingston now on view at Dolby Chadwick Gallery SAN FRANCISCO, CA.-Dolby Chadwick Gallery is opening Buoyant, an exhibition of recent work by Robert Kingston, on view during the month of November. Set against a foundation of muted, off-white acrylic, Kingston’s paintings are deceptively soft-spoken creations. Sit with them in meditation and their labyrinthine surfaces quickly give way to reveal countless layers of movement, gesture, and erasure. From their depths arises a delicate balance between spontaneity and intention, wherein improvisation converges with deliberate and controlled brushwork. Free-floating forms—from organic shapes and expressionistic gestures to highly precise line drawings—pass through and across the compositions like animated musical notes. Reminiscent of archaic cave drawings as well as modern-day pictograms and scientific symbols, ... More
If you can take the cable car to the Colosseum, You're in Vietnam NEW YORK, NY.- We are inside a glass box of a gondola, part of the longest passenger cable car in the world, flying silently along on a nearly 5-mile ride, and some 50 stories above a sapphire sea just off the coast of Phu Quoc Island in southern Vietnam. On this bright March afternoon, hundreds of colorful wooden fishing boats speckle the crystalline water below as we sail toward Hon Thom Island. On the way back, as the 20-minute ride nears an end, Phu Quoc station and the newly built town around it come into view. The station looks like a full-scale, prefab section of the Roman Colosseum, and the town is an elaborate facsimile of a seaside Italian city complete with a hulking bell tower, mock baroque fountains in piazzas and pseudo Roman ruins. Fanning out all around are several hundred pastel — and almost entirely empty — terraced buildings ... More
The Garment District Alliance presents installation highlighting the history of womenswear NEW YORK.-The Garment District Alliance (GDA) announced the latest in its ongoing series of public art exhibits, showcasing Shaping the Female Form, a series of paintings and drawings that delve into the captivating history of women’s clothing and how it has defined, enhanced, and obscured the female form. The evocative installation is part of the Garment District Space for Public Art program, which showcases artists in unusual locations and has produced more than 200 installations, exhibits, and performances over the past 18 years. Located inside the Kaufman Arcade building on 139 W 35th Street, in the heart of the Garment District, the free exhibit is accessible to the public through January 2024.“Initially inspired by items manufactured in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory, Cushla’s works represent the story behind women’s garments ...

At Ballet Theater, a thrilling puck and a moment to take stock NEW YORK, NY.- Mendelssohn’s music for “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” is full of sweet thunder and other wonderful noises. A cartoon sound effect for jumping isn’t among them. Yet when American Ballet Theater performed Frederick Ashton’s ballet “The Dream” last Saturday, every time Jake Roxander’s Puck took to the air, I could swear I heard one: “boing!” Roxander is a corps de ballet member who burst into prominence during Ballet’s Theater’s summer season, and his debut as Puck was the most thrilling highlight of the final two programs of the company’s fall season at the David H. Koch Theater. Roxander’s shot-from-a-bow leaps had arrow-like definition. His turns were cyclonic yet controlled. Recalling Puck’s boast in Shakespeare’s play, he looked like he really could circle the Earth in 40 minutes. In truth, his performance ... More
Courtney Bryan's music brings it all together NEW YORK, NY.- The name Courtney Bryan is not one that you’ll find on many recordings. Aside from two independently released, jazz-tilting albums from 2007 and 2010, precious little of this pianist and composer’s finely woven, adventurous music is available to hear widely. But you can expect that to change, beyond live performances including the premiere of Bryan’s chamber work “DREAMING (Freedom Sounds),” presented by the International Contemporary Ensemble at Merkin Hall on Wednesday. She also recently signed with influential music publisher Boosey & Hawkes, whose biography of her online includes the promise of a third recording: “Sounds of Freedom.” Bryan, 41, who was born in New Orleans and received a MacArthur “genius” grant in October, has been making her mark since earning her doctorate in composition from ...
