Claude Monet, Camille assise sur la plage à Trouville (est. £7–10m). Courtesy Sotheby's.
LONDON.- Two exceptional works by Claude Monet, painted nearly four decades apart, will headline Sotheby’s Modern and Contemporary Evening auction in London on 24 June. Together, the paintings encapsulate both the origins and culmination of Monet’s revolutionary artistic practice, drawing on two of his most enduring sources of inspiration: his water garden at Giverny, and his beloved wife Camille. Leading the sale is Nymphéas (1907), a lyrically ethereal and luminous view of Monet’s famed water lily pond at Giverny, carrying the highest estimate ever placed on a work by the artist to come to auction in Europe (est. £30–40m). It is joined by Camille assise sur la plage à Trouville, an intimate early portrait of Monet’s beloved wife Camille on the Normandy coast during the summer of 1870 (est. £7–10m). Offered from the same private collection, the two paintings share distinguished American provenance. Nymphéas remained in the collection of renowned patron and collector Anne Bass for nearly four d ... More

LONDON.- GOST Books today announce the forthcoming publication of Vietnam by Sir Don McCullin. This landmark volume represents the first time McCullin’s legendary Vietnam War photographs have been reproduced in a book dedicated only to this conflict. McCullin, who turns 91 in Autumn 2026, presents—in what the photographer has indicated will be his ‘last ever book’—a retrospective in book form of his time in Vietnam; captured over three sections or ‘campaigns’ of the individual trips he made to the region throughout the war. The work is the result of a deep archival excavation, featuring approximately 100 black and white images and more than 20 colour photographs, nearly half of which have never been previously published in print or exhibited. Well known images of Marine soldiers sit alongside shots of domestic life caught amidst the battlefield; dead or dying men and women smoked out of bunkers, and piles of ... More
Katherine Hubbard, The Great Room, installation view, Secession 2026. Photo: Iris Ranzinger.
VIENNA.- How do you capture the inner life of a person whose reality no longer aligns with the outer world? And how do you remain in relation to someone who is both intimately familiar and irreversibly changing? Katherine Hubbard began her five-year project The Great Room in 2020, at the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, when her mother, Antonette Berger, became increasingly unwell and the artist became her primary caretaker. It took several months in a time of anxiety and isolation until Berger was diagnosed with LATE (limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy), a form of dementia. Hubbard has described this diagnosis as both necessary and insufficient: a gesture towards control and classification that ultimately fails to grasp the lived, shifting reality of her mother’s condition. It is precisely this gap that the project inhabits. At its centre is Berger’s first-floor apartment in a Victorian house she owned for over forty years, which becomes the stage for an evolving ser ... More
Eugène Atget, Maison de l’historien André Duchesne-rue Saint-André-des-Arts 27, 1899, albumen silver print, High Museum of Art, Atlanta, anonymous gift, 2016.344.
ATLANTA, GA.- Since acquiring its first photograph in 1973 and creating its photography department in 1993, the High Museum of Art has continually worked to expand its collection of photographs, transforming it into one that showcases the history of the medium while mirroring the culture and time in which the works were made. Culminating those years of strategic work, and signaling the future direction for the department’s acquisitions, the High presents “New Acquisitions: Photography” from June 12 to Sept. 6. In addition to debuting new works, the exhibition highlights the extraordinary breadth of photographs the institution owns and celebrate how crafting a collection is an art form in and of itself. Featured photographers include Dawoud Bey, Rahim Fortune, Nikita Gale, Martine Gutierrez, Richard Learoyd, Baldwin Lee, Catherine Opie, Ed Panar, Susan Worsham and more. Over the past 10 years, the High’s photography collection has grown by more than 3,000 works thanks to generous ... More

SAN ANTONIO, TX.- Visitors to the San Antonio Museum of Art (SAMA) can now see paintings by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Pierre Bonnard, Vassily Kandinsky, and Pablo Picasso, while discovering lesser-known artists like Albert Marquet and Alexei Jawlensky, in a new exhibition featuring seventeen artworks by masters who defined European modern art. Renoir to Picasso: The Robertson Family Collection opened today, June 12, 2026. It is on view in the European Gallery through June 10, 2029. The exhibition highlights works from roughly the 1870s through the 1940s, a period that gave rise to artistic innovations such as Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, and Cubism. These movements stunned audiences, who encountered, for the first time, vibrant canvases painted outdoors using brilliant colors and loose brushwork; intense, subjective color to express feeling; and the use of multiple perspectives to break up the conventional picture plane in ever more abstract compositions. Additionally, works by American sculptors Ale ... More
HALLE.- The Kunstmuseum Moritzburg Halle (Saale) opened today a major exhibition dedicated to one of the most memorable photographic portraits of East Germany: Helga Paris’s Häuser und Gesichter. Halle 1983–85. On view from June 12 through September 20, 2026, the exhibition brings together Paris’s powerful series of 101 black-and-white photographs made in Halle during the mid-1980s. Known through the title Diva in Grau — “Diva in Grey” — the cycle captures the city at a moment of tension, beauty and decay, when industrial haze, neglected architecture and everyday human presence formed a striking visual record of urban life in the German Democratic Republic. Paris, who lived from 1938 to 2024, created the series after photographer Arno Fischer encouraged colleagues in the early 1980s to document the GDR in the social documentary tradition of American photography of the 1930s. Her response was immediate: “I’ll take Halle.” The city was familiar t ... More
Hugo Ruyant, Rumor lines III, 2026. Acrylic and oil on canvas, 180 x 150 x 3.5 cm. 70 7/8 x 59 x 1 3/8 in. Unique.
BERLIN.- KÖNIG GALERIE is presenting Leave A Mess Age, a solo exhibition by Hugo Ruyant, on view in the Vault of St. Agnes. This marks the artist’s first exhibition with the gallery. The exhibition begins with a game. The title Leave A Mess Age breaks apart into separate words that one must chew over, roll around in the mouth, pronounce several times—slowly, quickly, with pauses in between. Each time the words are spoken aloud, they acquire a new meaning. Like those childhood games in which someone tricks you into saying something seemingly ordinary, only for it, once spoken, to turn into a joke at your expense. Leave A Mess Age is at once a look at the cacophony of information and voices that drown out our everyday lives, and a reflection on time and on how we, as social bodies, drift through it. The exhibition is constructed as a dialogue and an antithesis between two bodies of work. On one side are the birds, chirping and tweeting incessantly. Within this far-from-idyllic birdsong, ... More
BERLIN.- With the exhibition Kengo Kuma – The Flow of Lines through the Lens of Erieta Attali, the Museum of Architectural Drawing explores the dialogue between architecture, drawing and photography. The presentation centres on 86 hand-drawn sketches by the internationally renowned Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, which are given a new visual dimension through 18 selected art photographs by Erieta Attali. Kengo Kuma is one of the most significant voices in contemporary architecture. His internationally acclaimed projects, including the National Stadium in Tokyo, the V&A Dundee Design Museum, the Tiffany store in Tokyo’s Ginza district and many others, are characterised by a particular sensitivity to materials, light and landscape, as well as to the history of their sites. Less widely known, however, are Kuma’s hand-drawn sketches. The works on display in this exhibition offer a rare insight into the architect’s creative process. These drawings are not merely sketches or prelim ... More
Yuri Yuan, The Dream of A Dream, 2026. Oil on linen, 152.5 x 122 cm.
BERLIN.- Haverkampf Leistenschneider is presenting Wanderlust, the first Berlin solo exhibition of Chinese, New York-based artist Yuri Yuan (b. 1996, Harbin, China). Yuri Yuan’s paintings gesture toward themes of geographical and emotional distance through carefully staged relationships between figures and their surroundings. Imbued with visual symbolism, her landscapes and domestic scenes become projections of interior psychological states. This new body of work investigates belonging and the meaning of “home” for an artist whose roots extend across multiple places. It emphasizes the importance of passage over arrival, witness over judgment, in an age when life often seems to move faster than reflection. Yuan’s recurrent motifs of distance and longing recall Caspar David Friedrich’s Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog and Gustave Courbet’s Bonjour, Monsieur Courbet—works the artist encountered early in her career while visiting the Alte Nationalgalerie in Berlin. I ... More
PARIS.- Gagosian announces TILL DEATH DO US PART, an exhibition of new works by Sterling Ruby opening at the rue de Castiglione gallery in Paris on June 12. This suite of collages and cast bronze sculptures continues Ruby’s use of flowers as both raw and iconographic material. Derived from his expanding studio garden in Vernon, California, and extended time spent in the Eastern Sierras, the installation envelops visitors in an elegy to the floral. Visible through the gallery’s storefront windows, prints of the GHOSTS series (2026) are architecturally scaled and papered across the gallery walls, filling them with deep blue linear marks distinguished by a dense texture reminiscent of pastures undulating on a windy day. The works’ source collages, which combine traditional cyanotypes with washy drawn elements, hang on the walls over the field of blues. Occupying the space itself are several unique cast bronze sculptures from the series Bound Flowers. Couple. (2025–), which rep ... More
2025 FIA World Rally Championship / Round 09 / Rally Finland / 30 July - 03 August 2025. Worldwide Copyright: McKlein.
JYVÄSKYLÄ.- When it began in 1951, the Rally of the Thousand Lakes was a modest event – defined above all by its famously long route. Over the decades, “Jyskälä” (the event’s Finnish nickname) has grown into a World Rally Championship highlight: an international carnival of speed and Finland’s largest sporting event by audience numbers. Opening at Aalto2 Museum Centre in June, this exhibition dives deep into the world of rallying — into the history, background and culture of the Jyväskylä rally event. It explores rallying both as a sport and as a Central Finnish phenomenon that, over the decades, has shaped Jyväskylä, the Central Finland region, and people’s relationship with the event. This exhibition takes museum visitors out to the gravel roads, pine forests, and makeshift field parking that define rallying in Central Finland. It also brings to life the camaraderie of the volunteers who make the event possible, and explores how the rally has evolved – spa ... More

Pablo Bronstein joins Olney Gleason NEW YORK, NY.- Olney Gleason announced representation of London-based artist Pablo Bronstein (b. 1977, Buenos Aires) in collaboration with Herald St and Galleria Franco Noero. The artist’s debut exhibition with the gallery will open at 297 Tenth Avenue, New York, in September 2026. The upcoming exhibition will feature a suite of monumental clocks exquisitely rendered in acrylic on paper, deepening Bronstein’s longstanding fascination with the history of aesthetics and bourgeois material culture. The exhibition marks Bronstein’s return to New York, where he staged a solo exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2009. Recent solo institutional presentations include The Temple of Solomon and Its Principal Contents, comprising imagined designs for the biblical structure, at Waddesdon Manor in Buckinghamshire, UK, in 2025.

MACS introduces three new contemporary art exhibitions in summer lineup HORNU.- Bringing together some fifteen works from the MACS collection, the exhibition underscores the critical reach of an anthropological vision that embraces the near and the far, the familiar and the foreign, the centre and the periphery. This shift in focus produces a double reframing: a gaze turned outward towards elsewhere and, in turn, estranged from itself as though seen from without by a foreign eye. Putting into practice what Claude Lévi-Strauss, that “astronomer of human constellations,” calls “the distant gaze,” these artists seek to bring the distant closer and push the near further away, to illuminate the one through the other. Theirs is a reformed humanism where the modern and the traditional, the rational and the sensuous, and progress and nature, are at last reconciled. Just as Marcel Broodthaers’ geopoetic atlas reduces the outlines of different states to the same scale, creating an archipelago of kindred othernesses, this subversion of boundaries is also a struggle against e ...

Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen opens digital art survey 'Pixel Pioneers' ROTTERDAM.- Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen presents Pixel Pioneers, an exhibition dedicated to digital art. In a world where life without technology is now almost unimaginable, the presentation spans a range of works, from algorithmically generated paintings and audiovisual installations to interactive retro-games. Alongside newly commissioned works, Pixel Pioneers also draws on the museum’s collection, including key examples from the 1960s that foreground early experiments with digital tools. Moving between past and present, the exhibition considers how artists have used technology to bring to life the stories of their time. The exhibition highlights the introduction of digital tools and artificial intelligence into the creative process. Christopher Kulendran Thomas draws on his Tamil background in works which metabolize Sri Lanka's layered histories and contested visual legacies, raising questions about authorship and the power of images to shape wh ...

Kalfayan Galleries debuts Konstantinos Mouchtaridis's solo exhibition in Athens ATHENS.- Kalfayan Galleries, located at 11 Haritos Street in Kolonaki, Athens, presents the solo exhibition of Konstantinos Mouchtaridis, titled “The Earliest Winds.” The exhibition opened on Friday, 12 June 2026, with an opening reception from 19:00 to 21:00. The text accompanying the exhibition is written by Odette Kouzou, curator: “Kalfayan Galleries presents the first solo exhibition by Konstantinos Mouchtaridis, titled The Earliest Winds. The exhibition features a body of work consisting of tempera paintings on wood, alongside watercolour drawings on paper. The landscape remains central to his practice, yet here it emerges from his insistence on painting that which cannot be painted: the wind. In this new series of works, his contemplation begins with the quintessential iconographic tradition of landscape representation and, by extension, the elements of nature, which are depicted by means of anthropomorphic forms and symbolisms. A central point of reference in his research is the Tower of ... More
Design and national identity converge in The Scandinavian Home: Landscape and Lore CINCINNATI, OH.- The Taft Museum of Art presents The Scandinavian Home: Landscape and Lore, an exhibition that brings one of the most extraordinary private collections of Scandinavian art in North America into public view for the first time. Organized by The Frick Pittsburgh and on display at the Taft Museum of Art from June 13 through September 20, 2026, the exhibition invites visitors to explore how ideas of home, landscape, and national identity shaped Nordic art and material culture from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. The Scandinavian Home spans a remarkable range of media, including painting, furniture, ceramics, textiles, metalwork, and works on paper, highlighting approximately 75 works from the private collection of Pennsylvania-based collectors David and Susan Werner. Together, these objects illuminate the period from 1880 to 1920, a time of profound cultural transformation across Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. The exhibition was developed by consulting curators Patricia G. Berm ... More

On a day like today, American fashion designer Bill Blass died
June 12, 2002. William Ralph Blass (June 22, 1922 - June 12, 2002) was an American fashion designer. He was the recipient of many fashion awards, including seven Coty Awards and the Fashion Institute of Technology's Lifetime Achievement Award (1999). Blass is largely credited with creating the relaxed, elegant look that American fashion favored in the late 20th century. In a time period where international attention was solely focused on French fashion, Blass was able to create designs that would eventually shift the focus onto American fashion as well. Inspired by European fashion designers like Coco Chanel, Blass modernized womenswear by allowing them comfort while still maintaining a sense of glamour; he would create designs typical of sportswear, but create them using luxurious fabrics.
