NEW YORK, NY.- In celebration of the centennial of Robert Rauschenberg’s birth, the Guggenheim New York presents Robert Rauschenberg: Life Can’t Be Stopped, a Collection in Focus exhibition drawn from the museum’s permanent holdings with key loans from the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation.

Timed to what would have been his 100th birthday, the exhibition contributes to a global slate of 2025–26 initiatives that reexamine Rauschenberg’s legacy, honoring his expansive creativity, spirit of curiosity, and commitment to change. “Robert Rauschenberg’s restless innovation and enduring exploration of materials and techniques have long resonated with the Guggenheim’s own commitment to redefining artistic boundaries.

HELSINKI.- Sarah Lucas (b. 1962) is an influential and internationally acclaimed artist known for her irreverent and provocative use of satire in her sculptural practice. Her exhibition at Kiasma offers a comprehensive overview of her career to date, showcasing sculpture, photography, and installations from the past four decades—including new and recent works—many of which have featured in celebrated exhibitions around the world. This marks Lucas’s first extensive solo presentation in the Nordic region. Lucas works with everyday ‘readymade’ materials—furniture, food, cigarettes, and pantyhose—reassembling them in compositions that evoke the human body in all its fragility with desirousness, humour, and eroticism. Lucas’s practice critically engages with unspoken assumptions surrounding gender, sexuality, and power dynamics. Her work questions societal perceptions ... More

LEUVEN.- M Leuven is presenting the first solo exhibition in Belgium by internationally acclaimed Polish-German artist Alicja Kwade. Her monumental and poetic work fills seven of the museum’s rooms from 10 October 2025 onwards. The exhibition is the highlight of M’s autumn programme and is part of KU Leuven’s 600th anniversary celebrations. "The exhibition is part of KU Leuven’s 600th anniversary celebrations, which focus on reflection. What is the relationship between science, time, and human insight? Kwade’s work offers a poetic and critical response to this question." — Bert Cornillie, Alderman for Culture and Chair of M Leuven’s Board of Directors. Kwade creates installations that inspire wonder and reflection. Her sculptures and spatial interventions blur the lines between art and science, as well as between intellect and intuition. Through reflections, repetitions, and a blend of natural materials and everyday objects, she invites viewers to examine how ... More

Hermès 25cm Matte White Himalaya Niloticus Crocodile Kelly Retourne Bag with Palladium Hardware.
DALLAS, TX.- One of the rarest handbags ever created, the Hermès 25cm Matte White Himalaya Niloticus Crocodile Kelly, dazzled bidders in Heritage’s Oct. 9 Autumn Luxury Accessories Signature® Auction, realizing $125,000 and leading the event to a $2,401,279 finish. The myth and magic that surround the Himalaya Kelly can be traced back to its predecessor: the Himalaya Birkin, which was originally sold only to the most dedicated and loyal Hermès collectors. A masterwork of craftsmanship and exquisite artisanry, the legendary creation is fashioned from the hide of the Niloticus crocodile, whose scales are large and symmetrical, ensuring meticulous uniformity. The hide is hand-dyed and painstakingly bleached to create an ombre of smoky gray, which fades into a luminous white, evoking the snowcapped Himalayas. “The Himalaya Kelly is simply legendary,” says Diane D’Amato, Heritage Auctions’ Director of Luxury Accessories, Private Sales & The Boutique. “It’s flawless, ti ...

Merikokeb Berhanu, Untitled C, 2025. Acrylic on canvas, 84 x 60 in. 213.4 x 152.4 cm.
NEW YORK, NY.- James Cohan is presenting an exhibition of new work by Merikokeb Berhanu, on view from October 10 through November 1, 2025, at the gallery’s 52 Walker Street location. This marks both the artist’s debut with the gallery and her first solo exhibition in New York. Merikokeb Berhanu (b. 1977, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia) explores spiritual transcendence and environmental consciousness through the synthesis of bold abstract gestures and biomorphic forms. The artist creates paintings that blend influences ranging from pan-African pictorial traditions to global modernist movements within dense geometric patterns of resonant symbolism. This distinctive language speaks to Berhanu’s lived experience within the African diaspora following a relocation to the United States in 2017. Her work draws on centuries of image-making to probe the tensions between the natural world and the manmade, commenting on the complexities of contemporary urbanization and the profound interconnectedness of al ...

PARIS.- Galleria Continua is presenting NEED, Berlinde De Bruyckere’s first solo exhibition in its Paris Marais space, crowning over 25 years of collaboration. A major figure in international contemporary art, the Belgian artist transforms the gallery with an ensemble of monumental sculptures alongside more intimate artworks exploring some of the major themes she has developed in recent years. The exhibition’s title, NEED, reflects the imperative that runs through De Bruyckere’s work: the necessity to give form to what language struggles to convey, touching upon the extremes of human experience through transformation and sublimation - whether it be pain or desire, repulsion or attraction, decay or rejuvenation. “ It is the ever recurring horror and beauty that we, as humans, do not fully understand, but of which we are nevertheless a part ,” explains ...

VENICE.- From October 11 through March 2, 2026, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection presents Manu-Facture: The Ceramics of Lucio of Fontana, the first museum exhibition dedicated exclusively to the ceramic work of Lucio Fontana (1899–1968), one of the most innovative, and in his unique way irreverent, artists of the twentieth century. While Fontana is best known for his iconic, slashed and punctured canvases of the 1950s and ‘60s, this exhibition casts a spotlight on a lesser known but essential part of his oeuvre: his work in clay, which he began in Argentina in the 1920s and continued to explore throughout his life. Organized by art historian Sharon Hecker, this is the first solo show to offer an in-depth examination of Fontana’s ceramic production. As Hecker notes: “Long associated with craft rather than fine art, today Fontana’s ... More

DUBLIN.- Kerlin Gallery announces “Look at the Harlequins!”, a solo exhibition by Isabel Nolan. Ahead of Nolan’s forthcoming representation of Ireland at the 61st Venice Biennale in 2026, this exhibition offers an insight into the artist’s practice characterised by its shifting movement between mediums, where sculpture, textiles and works on paper are held in lively dialogue, celebrating and communing with historical figures and works of art that speak to us across centuries. The works in this exhibition look, in particular, towards the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance – an era marked by transformative technological changes, pandemic, religious and political conflict, not unlike today. Nolan seizes upon small, perhaps overlooked, details from historic works that reveal interpersonal dynamics, or reflect upon the place of humans within the world. A towel draped over a wall adds an unexpected touch of domesticity and intimacy to a religious scene by Francesco di Gio ... More

The Whitney Museum opens Ken Ohara's first solo exhibition NEW YORK, NY.- Ken Ohara: CONTACTS foregrounds the artist’s radical photographic experiment that redefined authorship, collaboration, and contemporary portraiture in 1970s America. The exhibition features twenty-two photographic contact sheets and four related archival documents from Ohara’s groundbreaking participatory project CONTACTS (1974–76). By relinquishing authorship and inviting strangers across the United States to use his camera to document their own lives, Ohara forged a radically democratic portrait of American life during a period of cultural and political upheaval. In CONTACTS, Ohara preloaded his camera with film, mailed it to a stranger, and invited the recipient to photograph themselves, their family and friends before returning the camera to the artist along with the name and address of the next person to send it to. Over two years, ... More

Mary Kelly's new exhibition ignites debate on protest and political change LONDON.- Pippy Houldsworth Gallery is presenting pioneering conceptual artist Mary Kelly’s fourth solo exhibition with the gallery, We don’t want to set the world on fire, which explores the role of protest in her work and its power to effect change. In the face of the current political landscape and the rise in authoritarian populism in Europe as well as the US, Kelly continues to analyse the past’s impact in shaping our understanding of the present. The title of the exhibition refers to Kelly’s 2019 site-specific project, Peace is the Only Shelter, a tribute to Women Strike for Peace, an activist group founded in 1961 to mobilise women against nuclear weapons testing. Their innovative slogans, including We don’t want to set the world on fire, were reenacted by Kelly in the desert region near the test sites where former protests took place. The exhibition opens with the first European presentation ... More

Glass in Contemporary Art. It features impressive sculptures and installations by around 50 international artists.

Luc Delahaye's 25 years of documentary art on display at Jeu de Paume PARIS.- Jeu de Paume is dedicating a major monographic exhibition to Luc Delahaye (b. in Tours in 1962), presenting his photographic work between 2001 and 2025. This decisive period in his career coincides with his increasing distance from photojournalism and his commitment to the field of art. A prominent war photojournalist in the 1990s and a former member of the Magnum agency, he is part of a generation of photographers who re-examined the articulation between documentary practices and an artistic dimension. For twenty-five years, his photographs, most often in large format and in colour, have offered a glimpse of the ills of the contemporary world. From the Iraq War to the Ukraine War, from Haiti to Libya, from the OPEC conferences to the COP, Delahaye explores the echo of the world and the institutions supposed to regulate it. Sometimes produced ... More

As She Descends and ikkibawiKrrr: Who Forgot the Village on view at Aranya Art Center QINHUANGDAO.- The legend of Lady Meng Jiang, a national-level intangible cultural heritage, has evolved and spread across China for nearly two thousand years, with particular resonance in Qinhuangdao. The story of Lady Meng Jiang, who embarked on a distant journey for love and brought down the Great Wall with her weeping—has spread far and wide in folk oral traditions, and has been constantly recounted in various forms of plays, folk songs, customs, and rituals. It reflects the emotions of the people in different times across different historical periods and has played a lasting role in shaping the imagination, order, and morality of society. This exhibition invites artists from China and across Asia to respond to this legend, in an attempt to release Lady Meng Jiang from classicalist readings and engage more open-ended, diverse aspects of her figure.

This installation brings three newly-commissioned works by Chicago-based artist Diane Simpson to Bluhm Family Terrace, placing her architectonic forms in dialogue with Chicago’s iconic skyline. Over the last 50 years, Simpson has created works inspired by a diverse range of visual sources including clothing structures, utilitarian objects, and architecture. Working from highly detailed preparatory drawings, she develops complex geometries which she then transforms into three-dimensional objects that call into question perspective and scale. Produced entirely by hand, Simpson’s sculptures are human scaled, spatially challenging, and wonderfully strange. “Simpson’s sculptures constantly oscillate between their three-dimensional form and their two-dimensional ...
