SHANGHAI.- Almine Rech Shanghai presents 'Three Nymphéas', Oliver Beer's third solo exhibition with the gallery, on view from November 12, 2025 to January 10, 2026.
When we gaze at the stars, we are actually locking eyes with starlight that has traveled from decades, millennia, trillions of years ago, or even from the primordial source of all things. A similar kind of direct, readily accessible time travel occurs, in a way, when encountering Oliver Beer’s solo exhibition, 'Three Nymphéas'. This is not to suggest that the British artist seeks to usurp the role of the Creator, but that through his unique and meticulously refined technique, the pond at Giverny—which captivated Monet for thirty years, two centuries ago—genuinely resonates with us here and now in our auditory and visual senses. Oliver Beer’s trans-temporal dialogue with Claude Monet began with a 2023 commission commemorating the 150th anniversary of Impressionism. By then, the artist’s Resonance ... More
The tool is the result of more than ten years of collaboration between the Prado and the University of Seville’s School of Engineering.
MADRID.- The Museo Nacional del Prado’s groundbreaking digital project Aracne has been named a finalist in the Digital Innovation of the Year category at the 2025 Apollo Awards, one of the art world’s most prestigious international recognitions. Developed in collaboration with the University of Seville, the project is transforming how experts study, date, and attribute paintings — redefining the very fabric of art research, quite literally. Named after the mythological weaver, Aracne is a software tool that automatically analyzes the threads of a painting’s canvas using high-resolution photographs and X-rays. By applying advanced frequency-based algorithms, it can count and compare the warp and weft of the linen or cotton used by artists. This allows researchers to determine whether different artworks were painted on canvases from the same roll of fabric, leading to new insights about authorship, chronology, and workshop ... More
The Rolling Stones Brian Jones Owned, Stage-Played and Studio-Used Harmony Stratotone Guitar.
DALLAS, TX.- Brian Jones' original electric guitar he played as a member of The Rolling Stones is expected to fetch up to $400,000 when it comes up for sale on Dec. 4 in Heritage's Satisfaction: The Rolling Stones Treasures from the Ali Zayeri Collection Music Memorabilia Signature® Auction. Noted collector Ali Zayeri, who has been buying Rolling Stones memorabilia for more than 40 years, presents the guitar as the centerpiece of a multi-million dollar collection dedicated to the group that includes rare stage-worn costumes, instruments, posters for early gigs, signed contracts and other exciting material from the formation of the band in the 1960s. Jones acquired the Harmony Stratotone guitar in 1962 and played it during The Rolling Stones' session for their first single Come On/I Want To Be Loved, and he played it on stage with The Stones in 1962 and '63, including at the Marquee Club in London.

Kan Yasuda, Myomu 妙夢 (2009), White Bronze, H1C 1/8 x W23 5/8 x D7 7/8 in, H41 x WC0 x D20 cm (B29739NP)
NEW YORK, NY.- Ippodo Gallery presents Forms of the Unconscious, a significant solo exhibition of new and iconic works by renowned Japanese sculptor Kan Yasuda. Opening on November 13th, 2025 through January 17, 202C, this marks the artist’s highly anticipated return to New York for his first solo presentation in over ten years, offering a rare opportunity to experience his serene and monumental sculptures at the gallery’s new flagship in Tribeca – the most vibrant art district in New York City. In celebration of Yasuda’s receipt of the 2025 Isamu Noguchi Award, Ippodo Gallery welcomes the artist alongside longtime maestro di bottega Giorgio Angeli for an artist talk on November 18, 2025. Kan Yasuda (b. 1945) creates sculptures that innately explore the unconscious by pushing the extent of masonry—and physical motions of his own body—to express and challenge the limits of material. The line between the individual ... More

LONDON.- Gerrit Dou's first depiction of a musician, The Flute Player, will lead Christie's Old Masters Evening Sale on 2 December during Classic Week in London (estimate: £2,000,000-3,000,000). Dou, like his teacher Rembrandt, was among the most successful Dutch artists of the seventeenth century, attracting patrons such as Cosimo III de' Medici, and with his works presented to Charles II of England. An early masterpiece from his relatively small and highly sought-after oeuvre, this vanitas – a still-life charged with symbolic meaning – alludes to music, learning and the brevity of life. Painted with microscopic detail and an enamel-like finish that conceals all trace of the brush, it exemplifies the extraordinary technical precision that made Dou one of the most acclaimed painters of his age. The picture has been in a celebrated English collection for 125 years, having belonged to William Proby, 5th Earl of Carysfort (1836–1909) at Elton Hall by 1900, and has since passed by de ... More

She was also the Artistic Director of the 2019 Chicago Architecture Biennial – the largest architecture and design exhibition in North America. Her curatorial portfolio incl ... More
Charles Bell (1935-1995), Gum Ball I, 1971. Oil on canvas, 60 x 48 in. Estimate: $150,000 - $250,000.
DALLAS, TX.- In person, these gumball machines are 5 feet tall, imposing and statuesque. But it is not just their oversized scale that makes them so. Charles Bell loved to paint monumental images of vintage toys and pinball machines, but his lifelong fascination with everyday objects of pleasure and memory found its clearest expression in his paintings of gumball machines, where he used texture, exaggerated scale, and meticulous detail to transform a familiar childhood object into something majestic. Bell was an untrained painter of astonishing technical brilliance who mastered—and then surpassed—the photorealistic style of the 1970s and 80s. His stunning Gum Ball I (1971) transforms the humble penny machine into a monument of Americana and an object of genuine reverence. The painting is one highlight of Heritage’s Nov. 19 Modern and Contemporary Art Signature® Auction, which culminates the year with an outstanding selection of works ... More
Li Songsong, History X: Leviathan, 2025. Oil on canvas, 210 cm × 210 cm (82-11/16" × 82-11/16").
NEW YORK, NY.- Pace is presenting History Painting, an exhibition of new paintings by the Beijing-based artist Li Songsong, at its 540 West 25th Street gallery in New York from November 7 to December 20. Showcasing a selection of paintings created this year, the presentation spotlights Li’s enduring engagement with history as both inspiration and substance for his work. History Painting is accompanied by an exhibition booklet from Pace Publishing featuring an essay by the gallery’s Curatorial Director, Xin Wang. One of the most celebrated contemporary painters in China, Li has honed his distinct style—marked by his use of reliefs, bold brushstrokes, and solid color blocks—over the last 20 years as part of his pursuit “to paint something that had a certain distance from reality,” as he once put it. Contending with history, politics, and culture, Li’s art is forged in enactments of accumulation and subtraction, of exposure and obscuration. At once personal, imaginativ ... More
AMSTERDAM.- The Stedelijk Museum presents Erwin Olaf – Freedom, the first museum retrospective since the unexpected death of the artist two years ago. The exhibition pays tribute to the versatile and multifaceted artist that he was and illuminates his entire creative process. Besides iconic artworks and series of Erwin Olaf, the presentation also features lesser-known work, including videos and sculptures, his commercial photography, and personal archive material. The exhibition culminates with his last work, an unfinished video. Erwin Olaf Springveld (1959-2023) is internationally acclaimed as one of the most prominent Dutch photographic artists, celebrated for his characteristic staging, unique lighting, perfectionism, and controversial subjects. He was a freethinker, and the pursuit of personal freedom drove everything he did—he was a fervent champion of identity, sexuality, and gender, the human body in all its forms, nightlife, and equal rights for all. ...

Kunstverein Bad Wonder presents Thomas Scheibitz's "SINUSKNOTEN" BÜNDE.- SINUSKNOTEN is Thomas Scheibitz's first exhibition at Kunstverein Bad Wonder.
The exhibition primarily features new works from the last two years. Paintings, reliefs, murals, and wall films make up the spectrum, complemented by sculptures that are positioned standing or hanging in the room. The sinus node is located in the atrium of the heart, where it acts as the pacemaker for the heartbeat. In a figurative sense, it represents the frequency of a complex supply system in the body. Similarly, Scheibitz uses the term as a metaphor for the composition, structure, and interplay of different works within an organism — in this case, the exhibition space. Analysis breaks down an idea, while synthesis reassembles it. The question of directness — both in the works and in the titles — and of the indirect translation contained therein ... More
Grace Carney makes her Asian debut with "Subrisio Saltat" at Kiang Malingue Hong Kong HONG KONG.- Kiang Malingue is presenting at its Hong Kong location “Subrisio Saltat”, Grace Carney’s first solo exhibition in Asia. The exhibition features a selection of new paintings and drawings from 2025. Carney was born in 1992 in Minnesota and is based in New York. Through painting and drawing, Carney tackles personal experiences, memories, and relationships by acknowledging vulnerability and precariousness, starting each artwork from a position of discomfort or self-imposed limitation. Major pieces in the current exhibition including Subrisio Saltat (2025), D for Duration (2025) and The Rose of Onlooking (2025) took their titles from Austrian poet Rainer Maria Rilke’s seminal work Duino Elegies. Instead of narrating stories, however, Carney is concerned with orchestrating harmony and moments of dissonance, balancing forces, light, gravity, ... More

Tristan Unrau joins David Kordansky Gallery LOS ANGELES, CA.- David Kordansky Gallery announced representation of Tristan Unrau. Unrau’s work will be included in the upcoming presentation at Art Basel Miami Beach, and he will present his debut solo exhibition with the gallery in Los Angeles in March 2026. Tristan Unrau (b. 1989, Brampton, Canada) challenges presumptions that artists possess a signature, recognizable style, instead proposing that voice belongs to the painting as much as the painter. Propelled by curiosity and executed with a dazzling ventriloquism, little is off-limits in Unrau’s vision: subjects, tropes, and approaches from across the art historical canon include cartoonish figures and impressionistic interiors alongside geometric abstractions and atmospheric landscapes, while other “reenactments,” as Unrau has referred to his artworks, recall Golden Age portraits or Romantic ...

On a day like today, French sculptor Auguste Rodin was born
November 12, 1840. François Auguste René Rodin (12 November 1840 - 17 November 1917) was a French sculptor generally considered the founder of modern sculpture. He was schooled traditionally and took a craftsman-like approach to his work. Rodin possessed a unique ability to model a complex, turbulent, and deeply pocketed surface in clay. He is known for such sculptures as The Thinker, Monument to Balzac, The Kiss, The Burghers of Calais, and The Gates of Hell. In this image: Auguste Rodin, "Three Shades", modeled 1880 - 1904, Musée Rodin cast 10, 1981, bronze, Coubertin Foundry, lent by Iris Cantor.
