HUMLEBÆK.- Two architects and their studios reach back in time to design architecture for the future. Memoryscapes is the second exhibition in the Louisiana’s Architecture Connecting series on architects inspired by and incorporating other sciences. Highlighting links to cultural geography, the exhibition opens a window into the wide and varied field work of architects today. Atelier Tsuyoshi Tane Architects is founded by the Japanese architect Tsuyoshi Tane. DnA_Design and Architecture is a Chinese studio founded by Xu Tiantian. The two studios take different approaches to cultural geography and have different ways of doing field work. What unites them is their deep exploration of human, cultural and site-specific histories. ... More

LEUVEN.- ‘Lamentation of Christ with Donors’ (1553) – an exceptional painting by the Antwerp-based Renaissance master Willem Key – was recently added to the Flemish Government’s masterpieces list. This monumental panel was acquired by the Charles Vreeken Fund and will be presented for the first time at the King Baudouin Foundation’s stand at the BRAFA art fair. Following the fair, the work will undergo full restoration in preparation for display in M Leuven’s prestigious autumn exhibition, ‘Flemish Sculptors in Italy’. This is a remarkable acquisition: few significant paintings by Willem Key (born c. 1515 in Breda, died 1568 in Antwerp) are found in Belgium today, and none of his works are on permanent display in a Flemish museum. The addition of the painting to M Leuven’s collection fills that gap. It is the only signed and documented ... More

Phillip Allen, Object Wants (hard repetition version), 2025. Oil on board, 150 x 130 x 10.5 cm.
DUBLIN.- Kerlin Gallery announced Deep Waiting, an exhibition of new painting by Phillip Allen. In his latest body of work, Phillip Allen’s fifth solo presentation with the gallery marks a vibrant evolution in the artist’s long-standing exploration of abstraction, materiality and the painted edge. Described by art critic John Yau as “one of the great painters of his generation”, Phillip Allen has refused to settle into any one mode or style, choosing instead to continually push the possibilities of the picture plane resulting in paintings that are sculptural, optical and joyously excessive. Dense accretions of acrylic and oil paint form thick, encrusted borders that frame finely worked interior fields. Within these interiors, rhythmic geometries, spiralling motifs and kaleidoscopic colour sequences unfold with a sense of buoyant improvisation. ‘Deep Waiting’ reflects Allen’s ongoing interest in the mechanics ...

LONDON.- The National Gallery, London, today announced the appointment of Patrick Elliott as its Curator of Modern Paintings.

Samella Lewis (1923-2022), Untitled (Back of Woman), 1942. Charcoal on paper, 20 1/2 x 14 1/2 inches; 52.1 x 36.8 centimeters.
WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA.- Louis Stern Fine Arts will present The Work is Never Finished: Prints, Drawings, and Paintings by Samella Lewis. Artist, educator, activist, art historian, and curator Dr. Samella Lewis (1923-2022) conducted the lion’s share of her life and career in the service of others: championing the work of other Black artists, battling institutional hurdles to create educational and professional opportunities for people of color, and pioneering the field of African American art history. Her own artwork, however, she made for herself. Artmaking constituted a lifelong personal imperative, an essential instrument of communication with her own mind and with the experiences of her community. The production of her prints, drawings, paintings, and sculpture were deeply personal for Dr. Lewis. Growing up in segregated New Orleans, she channeled her fury at the racial injustice and ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- Film Forum will present the U.S. theatrical premiere of Paris Barclay’s Billy Preston: That’s The Way God Planned It on Friday, February 20.

Through electrifying concert footage and moving interviews with Billy Porter, Ringo Starr, Merry Clayton, and Preston’s longtime friend Eric Clapton, Emmy®-winning writer-director Paris Barclay (NYPD Blue, Sons of Anarchy, Scandal) and co-writer Cheo Hodari Co ...

Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery announces an exhibition of works by Danish artist Anders Scrmn Meisner LONDON.- A woman lying within a giant oyster shell within a blue garden. A ring lying on a blanket of grass. Kimono-wearing dancers swaying within a wall of leaves. Danish artist Anders Scrmn Meisner’s latest paintings draw on sense memories and the language of shared symbolism, inviting us into a cocoon of romance, beauty and connection. The exhibition’s title painting Picked an Orange for a Renaissance Girl captures the mood. It evokes the idea of stepping back to a simpler time, when we were perhaps more in touch with the natural world and our emotions, when the gift and receipt of an orange was enough to convey love, admiration or simply, mutual understanding. But as with all of Meisner’s works, the line as well as the composition itself – an orange stretched almost to the full parameters of the canvas – has a playful knowingness about it. Here, the ...

Galeria Vera Cortes to open André Romão's fourth solo show at the gallery LISBON.- Galeria Vera Cortês opens Inverno, André Romão’s fourth solo exhibition at the gallery. Taking a nocturnal passage by William Butler Yeats as a point of departure, Inverno unfolds as a space of suspension, where time slows and familiar coordinates begin to dissolve. The exhibition continues Romão’s long-standing investigation into sculpture as a site of hybridity: between bodies and landscapes, material presence and emotional resonance, literary imagination and organic matter. Marked by a wintery atmosphere, the exhibition inhabits a territory shaped by transformation and withdrawal, decay and potential renewal. Rather than proposing a linear narrative, Inverno offers a constellation of presences that operate through intuition, silence, and affect. The works evoke states of becoming and disappearance, inviting the viewer into a condition where certainty ... More
Ritual, myth, and embodiment: Saodat Ismailova and Tiran Willemse debut at Swiss Institute NEW YORK, NY.- Swiss Institute is presenting the first solo exhibition in the United States by Uzbek artist and filmmaker Saodat Ismailova. Ismailova’s films and installations unfold along the fault lines of Central Asian landscapes steeped in ritual and myth, shifting borders and migration, and the invisible forces of empire shaping the psycho-material terrains of the present. The exhibition revolves around the world premiere of the first iteration of Ismailova’s newly commissioned film Amanat (2026), whose title references that which is entrusted in one’s care, and denotes a sacred responsibility that demands to be honored, protected, and passed on. The film marks the concluding chapter of Ismailova’s long-term engagement with Arslanbob, a vast walnut forest in present-day Kyrgyzstan, revered for centuries as a spiritual site. Through the prism of its cosmologies ... More
