Shattered by Nazi bombs, a fossil's lost copies are just being found

An undated photo provided by the University of Manchester shows Dean Lomax of the University of Manchester with the Berlin cast, which he spotted in 2019, hidden on a shelf behind a display of ammonites and other fossils. The first full ichthyosaur fossil was thought lost to the ravages of World War II. But researchers recently identified a copy, then more started to emerge.

NEW YORK, NY.- In May 1941, the Royal College of Surgeons in London was bombed during a Nazi air raid. Among the specimens lost from its museum collection was a skeleton of an ichthyosaur — an extinct marine reptile that appeared millions of years before dinosaurs laid their first footprints on prehistoric soil. But not just any ichthyosaur was lost. The 3-foot-long “fish lizard” was the first complete fossil of the animal ever collected, and it was most likely discovered by Mary Anning, a trailblazing English paleontologist. In 1818, the ancient marine reptile landed on the desk of Everard Home, an anatomist at the Royal College of Surgeons. He named the fossil “Proteo-saurus” in a paper published in 1819. Losing the fossil to the ravages of World War II was a blow to paleontology, depriving future scientists of a specimen that would have aided study of the long-extinct animals while also being steeped in the field’s history. “At the time, they were like the real i ...

France's new flagship art fair announces details of its inaugural edition   Metal works from Robert Rauschenberg's Copperhead series on view at Thaddaeus Ropac Seoul   German artist Daniel Richter begins "Furor II" exhibition today at Regen Projects


86 internationally renowned galleries and talented young dealers will participate in what promises to be a major event in the global art market calendar.

PARIS.- In February this year, two leading French art fairs – the venerable Biennale, one of the world’s oldest art fairs (formerly known as La Biennale des Antiquaires) and the fast-growing Fine Arts Paris - announced that they had merged to create a new annual flagship event in Paris celebrating art from the Antiquity to present day. Today, Fine Arts Paris & La Biennale unveils details of its inaugural edition which will take place at the prestigious Carrousel du Louvre, from 9 to 13 November, before moving to the Grand Palais Ephémère in November 2023 and the renovated Grand Palais in November 2024. 86 internationally renowned galleries and talented young dealers will participate in what promises to be a major event in the global art market calendar. A showcase of art, culture, savoir-faire and heritage, Fine Arts Paris & La Biennale will present carefully selected artworks spanning no fewer than 14 categories, i ... More

SEOUL.- Thaddaeus Ropac Seoul presents a selection of exemplary metal works from Robert Rauschenberg’s Copperhead series, created in 1985 and 1989. This important body of paintings executed on copper supports originated with a group of 12 Copperhead-Bites, eight of which are shown together for the first time since they were created and exhibited in 1985. The first of Rauschenberg’s metal series, the Copperhead-Bites mark the artist's early experimentation with creating images directly on sheets of metal using silkscreen printing techniques, acrylic paint and tarnishing agents. The innovative techniques developed by the artist in the fabrication of the Copperhead-Bite series commenced his decade-long period of experimentation with painting on a variety of metal supports, including copper, brass, aluminium and bronze. The title of the series highlights his conceptualisation of the works ... More
 

The Grind, Daniel Richter, 2022, oil on canvas, 87 7/8 x 72 inches.

LOS ANGELES, CALIF.- Regen Projects begins today the presentation of Furor II, an exhibition of new paintings by German artist Daniel Richter. This marks the artist’s fifth solo presentation with the gallery. Richter came to prominence in the 1990s with bold, gestural, colorful, and even psychedelic abstract paintings that gained attention in the wake of Germany’s neo-expressionist Junge Wilde generation. Though he found early critical success with the riotous formal language of his abstract works, Richter has continually refused to settle into any single defining style. Steeped in the canon of German painting, Richter’s own work does not so much as undertake the projects of his forebears as it dissects and cannibalizes them in his pursuit of new meaning. Toward the beginning of the aughts, influenced by Symbolists like Pierre Bonnard and James Ensor, Richter would embrace figuration, deriving his subjects from contemporary media ima ... More



Leading Moran's California American Fine Art sale are works by Edgar Alwin Payne and John Marshall Gamble   Chilean artist Iván Navarro presents "Celestialand" at Templon New York   Crow Museum of Asian Art presents 'Phoenix Rising: Xu Bing and the Art of Resilience'


The Days End, River Elaune, Normandie, 1919, by George Ames Aldrich.

LOS ANGELES, CA.- Moran’s Autumn rendition of their bi-annual California and American Fine Art sale will be taking place Tuesday, November 15, 2022 at 4:00pm PST. The selection will feature fresh-to-the-market artworks that have been chosen from private collections throughout California, the Southwest, and beyond. Leading the sale include works by Edgar Alwin Payne, William Wendt, John Marshall Gamble, and John Frost. More contemporary highlights include works by Margaret Keane, Richard MacDonald, and Clyde Aspevig. With a wide range of subjects and time periods represented, this sale has something for every plein air collection. One of the private collections comes from the estate of George David Sturges (“Dave”). Growing up, Dave was surrounded by art, but it wasn’t until a visit to a friend’s house when he became enamored with California landscape paintings. “As soon as I arrived, I noticed five or six paintings on t ...

Large Eclipse, 2022, LED, timer, aluminum, mirror, one-way mirror and electric energy, 86 × 86 × 13 cm, 3 7/8 × 33 7/8 × 5 1/8 in., edition of 3.

TEMPLON, NY.- In November, Chilean artist Iván Navarro returns to his New York base after five years of profound exploration, worldwide exhibition and pandemic seclusion, to unveil a new, contemplative but passionate body of work for Templon New York’s second exhibition. In Celestialand, Navarro turns his attention to the cosmic world. He celebrates the unfathomable magnificence of the universe with his dazzling, galactic skyscapes, while quietly observing the perpetual human impulse to conquer and control, in heaven as it is on earth. In this sense, these new works can be seen as the natural evolution of Navarro’s earlier works that revolved around questions of power, using electrical energy as both metaphor and material. In Celestialand, Navarro witnesses the universe, in all its infinite mystery, also as ethereal “land” claimed by earthly nations as they assign their names, as symbolic flag posts, to even ...

DALLAS, TX.- One of the most mythical and popular beasts of Chinese folklore has landed as the Crow Museum of Asian Art of The University of Texas at Dallas presents Phoenix Rising: Xu Bing and the Art of Resilience. The exhibition will run Nov. 3, 2022, through March 5, 2023, at the Crow Museum, located in the Dallas Arts District at 2010 Flora St., Dallas 75201.

In addition to Xu’s headlining work, Phoenix Rising includes five works from the Crow Museum’s Chinese jade collection that also celebrate the revered phoenix. ... More



Galerie Max Hetzler opens a solo exhibition with new works by Darren Almond   Tolarno Galleries opens an exhibition of works by Kieren Karritpul   George Booth, New Yorker cartoonist of sublime zaniness, dies at 96

BERLIN.- Galerie Max Hetzler is presenting the solo exhibition A Distant Silence with new works by Darren Almond at Bleibtreustraße 45, in Berlin. Testifying to Almond’s longstanding preoccupation with abstract ideas of time, space, history and memory, this exhibition considers how these concepts relate and intersect. Drawing on the vastness of nature, the cosmos, and cycles of existence, new paintings from the artist’s ‘Mono-Lith' and ‘Counter’ series are on view, alongside one of his ‘Train Plates’. The ‘Counter’ paintings elaborate on Almond’s interest in numbers as a means of charting space and time. In one work, images of the night sky are abstracted into a multi-panel composition where fragmented digits float on a dark, indigo ground. Here, the number zero – the only whole integer – assumes a particular importance: symbolising a celestial pole, it acts as a point ... More
 

Kieren Karritpul ‘4 Fish Traps’ 2022, Texta on art paper, 24 sheets, 106 x 98 cm framed.

MELBOURNE.- In Daly River artist Kieren Karritpul’s art there is no escaping the woven lines of inspiration. The woven form is both subject and metaphor in his work, and also to some extent part of their process. In his first solo exhibition, Karritypul, the titles of his paintings, prints and textile-based work all indicated a particular woven form including the yerrgi which is actually a pre-woven form, yerrgi being the Daly River word (Ngan’gikurrungurr language) for the ubiquitous Sand Palm (Merrepen, Livistona humilis), the main sources of fibre for Top End weavers. In essence, Kieren’s yerrgi bundles symbolise the potency of weaving and the woven form and become a metaphor for the very idea of potency. Perhaps this is an autobiographical touch from someone so young who is in the early formative stages of realising his own potential as an artist. And yet there is a delightful and seasoned ingenuity in Kieren’s choice and varied ... More

by Robert D. McFadden


NEW YORK, NY.- George Booth, the New Yorker cartoonist who created a world of oddballs sharing life’s chaos with a pointy-eared bull terrier that once barked a flower to death, and sometimes with a herd of cats that shredded couches and window shades between sweet naps, died Tuesday at his home in Brooklyn, New York. He was 96. His daughter and only immediate survivor, Sarah Booth, said the cause was complications of dementia. In a typical Booth cartoon, a lot happens at once. A stunned dog leaps 3 feet in the air. A shocked cat bounds for an open window, knocking a newspaper from the hands of a shaken man — all as his frumpy wife stands in a kitchen doorway with blackened eyes, announcing: “Eyeliner is back!” Or, as a score of cats lounge in a parlor and a man ...

Olsen Gallery announces the passing of Australian artist Nicholas Harding   The life's work of photography's great trickster and Ukraine's greatest artist   'City of Kings: A History of New York City Graffiti' opens at Howl! Happening


Harding passed away overnight in his Sydney home following an extended battle with cancer.

SYDNEY.- It is with extremely heavy hearts that Olsen Gallery shared the news of the passing of beloved Australian artist Nicholas Harding. Harding passed away overnight in his Sydney home following an extended battle with cancer. Our thoughts remain with his partner Lynne, son Sam and all those who shared their love for Nicholas. He left us too soon. "Nicholas' body of work embodies the best of the landscape genre in contemporary terms and leaves us with a lifetime of spirited art-making. This is his gift to us. Nicholas will live on in this wonderful legacy." Olsen Gallery founder Tim Olsen "Nicholas Harding was a gentle man, a quiet man and quiet people notice things that others don’t and it is this that makes his paintings and drawings so fascinating. Yes, we have seen Central Station, or the landscape at sunset and have taken it for granted but Nicholas notices it for us and through his paintings we see it, as if for the first ... More
 

De la série « National Hero », 1991.

by Jason Farago


PARIS.- A new nation needs heroes, but when the mayhem comes suddenly, you take whatever heroes you can get. In 1991, as the Soviet Union lurched to dissolution and Ukraine prepared to declare independence, photographer Boris Mikhailov fabricated a new self-portrait, wearing a military uniform and looking straight-on like a Moscow official. But on his green jacket, traditional Ukrainian embroidery had been slapped on top of the Soviet insignia. The background was a sickly, pop-pink sherbet. The airbrushing was so over-the-top, the eyes so blue, the lips so rouged, that he looked like a porcelain doll. Here was a “National Hero” for Ukraine’s year zero, but he was not convincing anyone of his valor. A counterfeit hero: I can think of worse descriptions of Mikhailov, Ukraine’s most influential artist, and the sparkiest and most unpredictable photographer ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- Opening November 19th at Howl! Happening, City of Kings: A History of New York City Graffiti offers an extensive timeline on the origins of graffiti and its evolution as an art for over the last 60 years. The exhibition was curated by Al Diaz (who worked under the name Bomb One before partnering with Jean-Michel Basquiat to create the SAMO©… tag) with additional curation from graffiti archivist and artist Eric ‘DEAL CIA’ Felisbret and art educator Mariah Fox. It features stories, photos, ephemera, videos, documentaries, and the accounts of historical experiences, many of which are previously unseen. How did a subculture born on the streets of New York City evolve into a ubiquitous global phenomenon? From its origins in the late 1960s through today, the story of street art and graffiti in New York City is still being told. Creating a rich, visual contextualization of that history, ... More

KP Projects opens 'Todd Schorr: Old Masters and New Realisms'
LOS ANGELES, CA.- With recent exhibitions at The Crocker Art Museum in 2020, and Virginia MOCA in 2018, to Schorr’s epically received midcareer survey in 2009 at the San Jose Museum of Art, recognition by the museum world has solidified what the gallery and collecting public have known for decades -- that Todd Schorr is a giant in the Pop Surrealism movement. Though he shares that group’s interest in Lowbrow culture and post-illustration / 'comic' graphic style, Schorr’s operatically ambitious compositions, rich in precise detail and evocative atmospherics, plus his particular flair for wry insight and social commentary, has set him apart even among the genre’s best-known practitioners. With cinematic, fairy-tale carnivalism, satire, and sincere punnery -- Schorr confounds expectations with what critic Doug Harvey called “the willingness ... More

Tokyo Park and Ninjin Art team up to promote the new wave of Japanese art
LONDON.- Tokyo Park Gallery and Ninjin Art join forces to raise awareness of Japan's hottest new artists via a limited-time group exhibition in London's Shoreditch and soon-to-follow video. London, 2 November 2022: Art lovers still have until November 6 to catch the first UK glimpse of the new wave of contemporary art sweeping Japan at the Tokyo Colours exhibition in London's Shoreditch. A group show organised by London-based Tokyo Park Gallery and soon to be followed by a music-driven video produced by Cornwall's Ninjin Art, the exhibition brings together the work of SaiakuNana, Ashiya Shiguma, Mayumi Konno, Neko and TYM344, a new cadre of contemporary artists whose vision has so far remained largely unseen outside of their native Japan. "In an art world marked by conceptualism and the avant-garde, filled with hard ... More

Steve Reich, busy as ever, enters his late period
NEW YORK, NY.- Steve Reich — one of our greatest living composers, with a recognizably pulsing sound and a place in the pantheon of minimalist pioneers — recently turned 86. It’s not the clean kind of age, usually in multiples of 5, that you often see observed with a concert like Carnegie Hall’s celebration in his name Tuesday night. But that’s the pandemic-disjointed world we live in. Delays aside, though, this has been a particularly eventful year for Reich, who long ago moved from the proverbial downtown scene to the classical music establishment; from performing his works while scraping together money for his $65 rent to having the ears of audiences worldwide. Yet he never abandoned the searching, experimental nature of his practice, especially in “Traveler’s Prayer,” which had its U.S. premiere at the Carnegie concert. “I’ve been saying,” Reich ... More

Ketterer Kunst announces uction of rare Brücke collectibles
MUNICH.- When Ketterer Kunst will call up gems of German Expressionism from “The Gerlinger Collection – Brücke Artists (SHG)“ in its Evening Sale on December 9, art lovers, collectors and museums with a slightly smaller budget can look forward to the next day. The auction Modern Art Day Sale comprises 73 one-of-a-kind collectibles from Germany’s most important artist group: annual reports, portfolios with woodcuts and etchings, vignettes, membership card, programs, invitation cards, posters, catalogs and the Brücke chronicle. “Each of these pieces is an artwork itself and allows insight into self-conception, ambitions and development of the Brücke. This is why every single item has an art historical relevance,“ explains Dr. Mario von Lüttichau, academic consultant at Ketterer Kunst and former curator at the Museum Folkwang in Essen. The young ... More

How Takeoff and the Migos flow changed Atlanta rap
NEW YORK, NY.- The Atlanta trio Migos’ 2013 breakout hit “Versace” represented a clear demarcation line between the city’s older generation of rappers and its new vanguard. The rapping — much of it delivered in triplets — was a glittery stomp. Tightly clustered syllables that landed like quick jabs. “Versace” was such an immediate sensation that Drake, at the time the genre’s most important ascendant superstar, volunteered his services for a remix, mimicking the group’s peppery flow and, by extension, introducing it to the rest of the world. By all accounts, Takeoff — who was shot and killed in Houston early Tuesday morning — was the primary engine of what came to be dubbed the Migos flow. The rapper, who was 28, was one of three people who were shot around 2:30 a.m. after a private gathering at 810 Billiards & Bowling ended ... More

On a day like today, Italian painter Annibale Carracci was born
October 03, 1560. Annibale Carracci (November 3, 1560 - July 15, 1609) was an Italian Baroque painter. In this image: Eugenio Riccomini, curator of the exhibition of Italian painter Annibale Carracci, stands next to the painting "I macellai" (The butchers) during the exhibit opening in Bologna, Italy, Thursday Sept. 21, 2006. Carracci, who lived from 1560 to 1609 was underpaid in his lifetime and undervalued for centuries after his death and at last is having a renaissance in his native Bologna. Carracci's mastery ranged from sympathetic and realistic portraits of common folk like butchers, to magnificent frescoes adorning palatial residences in Rome.
