Thomas Jones, Near Capodimonte, Naples. Pencil and oil on paper laid on canvas, 14 x 19 1/2 inches.
NEW YORK, NY.- “I note the obvious differences between each sort and type, but (these) are more alike, my friends, than (they) are unalike.” -- Maya Angelou Early nineteenth-century artists began a radical departure from traditional academic norms, shifting focus from realistic representation to subjective expression. The show starts with the work of Welsh born painter Thomas Jones, who was one of the first artists to make outdoor oil sketching a significant part of his practice after an 1765 trip to Italy. His View of the Temple of Diana at Nemi has the fresh spontaneity of an oil sketch, thus anticipating the work of later 19th century landscape painters. J.B.C. Corot’s large scale late charcoal drawing demonstrates how the artist replaced the thin silvery graphite lines of his early drawings with broadly applied charcoal forms to depict compositions derived from memory and imagination. A rare early watercolor by Paul Gauguin shows the influence of Impressionism and the artist’ ... More
MONACO.- The monographic exhibition dedicated to the work of American artist Peter Halley is a colorful breach that opens in the midst of January, countering the grayness of long winter days. Far from this, his strong and vibrant palette radiates an intense energy. One that does not fade but stands absolutely out. Born in New York in 1953, Halley’s work is a reflection of the metropolis’ explosive social contrasts, a city built on an urban grid layout made of sharp angles. From this environment arises a meditation on structure, confinement, and constrained circulation. His paintings —"cells” and “conduits”— thus become metaphors for a hyperconnected but compartmentalized world where the individual inevitably maintains their isolation. Since the 1980s, Halley has developed a persistent geometric language nourished ... More

Hiram Latorre, Amores antigos III, 2025. Metal. 30 X 20 cm. Photo: Julia Thompson.
BRUSSELS.- In January, Martins&Montero presents The Restlessness of a Still Life, the first solo exhibition of Brazilian artist Hiram Latorre in Brussels. The show brings together the continuity of his chromatic and spatial investigations in large-scale paintings and introduces experiments in bronze sculptures. The exhibition project will be accompanied by a text by critic and curator Bernardo de Souza. In this new phase, Latorre expands his pictorial field and examines the relationships between surface, material, and space. His use of natural elements such as linen and beeswax continues to lend the work a tactile, organic, and sensorial dimension, allowing each canvas to engage directly with the palpable architecture that surrounds it. The exhibition establishes a temperature-based dialogue with the Brussels winter. Latorre works with warm tones — reds, burgundies, ochres, and oranges — which contrast with the city’s cold winter light. This tension between interior and exterior, w ... More

MUNICH.- Authoritarian politics, political violence, attacks on minorities, and the resurgence of fascist narratives increasingly shape the global and European present. ANTIFASCISM: NOW. 2026–2028 is a transnational art and research project that addresses these conditions through contemporary artistic practice, with a focus on Central, Southeastern, and Eastern Europe. Rather than historicizing antifascism, the project approaches it as an active, present-day democratic practice. Bringing together more than 50 international artists, activists, curators, cultural practoners and theorists, the project connects artistic production, activism, and research in a multi-year, process-based format. Initiated and curated by Kalas Liebfried (Director, Municipal Exhibition Hall, Lothringer 13, Munich) in cooperation with the Goethe-Institut, ANTIFASCISM: NOW. unfolds in 14 countries through 2028 and concludes at the Ludwig Forum Aachen, curated by Damian Lentini. The exhibition at ... More
DOHA.- Drawing inspiration from sources including the history of art and music as well as key philosophical and theological texts, Idris Khan is widely acclaimed for works that investigate memory, creativity and the layering of experience. Comprising a series of panels painted in jewel-like hues embellished with gold leaf, this presentation continues the artist’s ongoing exploration of colour, repetition and the spiritual potential of abstraction, with particular reference to the rich traditions of Islamic culture. Through many years of study, Khan has developed his exploration of colour to evoke both emotional immediacy and contemplative stillness by building layers of pigment. The colour acts as a psychological and spatial field – expansive, immersive and affecting. In these new works, each panel is carefully inscribed with layers of musical notation or Arabic text, applied by hand using gold leaf. These inscriptions, often poetic or meditative, ... More

AMSTERDAM.- The Anne Frank House opened a new temporary exhibition: ‘Who Is Missing?’– The Jewish Lyceum 1941–1943. The exhibition follows the school with its Jewish pupils and teachers during its two years of existence. Every school day, the same question arises: Who is missing? By order of the Nazis, all Jewish pupils are required to attend Jewish schools after the summer of 1941. This measure is one of many anti-Jewish decrees issued by the Nazis, through which Jews are increasingly isolated. Anne Frank and her sister Margot attend the Jewish Lyceum at Voormalige Stadstimmertuin 1, one of the 25 Jewish schools in Amsterdam. Their teachers are Jewish as well. Anne and Margot are forced to leave their former school and find their way at their new one, together with their fellow pupils and teachers. They form new friendships and achieve good academic results. There are also familiar faces, such as Albert Gomes de Mesquita, Anne’s former classmate at the Montessori School. ... More
Gorman’s career unfolded internationally, shaped by long periods of travel and work between Ireland, Italy and Japan.
DUBLIN.- Richard Gorman, a leading figure in contemporary Irish abstraction, has died at the age of 79. His passing marks the loss of an artist admired for his integrity, intelligence and quiet grace, and for a body of work that shaped Irish visual culture over more than four decades. Born in Dublin in 1946, Gorman initially studied business at Trinity College Dublin before turning decisively toward art. He graduated from the Dún Laoghaire School of Art and Design in 1980, the same year his work made an immediate impact at the Irish Exhibition of Living Art. Further recognition followed in 1981, and in 1983 he held a solo exhibition at the Project Gallery in Dublin, confirming his emergence as a distinctive new voice. Gorman’s career unfolded internationally, shaped by long periods of travel and work between Ireland, Italy and Japan. His practice remained steadfastly committed to abstraction, grounded ... More
Philippe Decrauzat, Slow Motion, (turquoise), 2023. Acrylic on canvas, 65 x 65 cm.
BOLOGNA.- A arte Invernizzi presents at Arte Fiera Bologna 2026 an exhibition articulated in sections with significant works by Italian and international artists of different generations represented by the gallery. Alan Charlton’s work, Trapezium in 3 parts with 3 Greys, highlights a repetition and, at the same time, a constant rethinking of the monochrome grey element, chosen and used by the artist as the only colour. The internal rhythm of the artwork, marked by an organised alternation between full and empty spaces, is related to Sens dessus dessous n° 1, 2012 by François Morellet, an international artist with whom the gallery has collaborated since 1994. In 2026, the Centre Pompidou-Metz will dedicate a major retrospective to him to mark the centenary of his birth. Morellet has always ironically deconstructed Euclidean geometry to give it a representation with a minimal sign in order to redefine the perceptive and ... More
Karuizawa casks.
LONDON.- Christie's presents an unprecedented opportunity for collectors and connoisseurs with the offering of two entire casks of Karuizawa whisky from the private collection of Sukhinder Singh – Cask #6195 and Cask #888 (estimates on request). Karuizawa, one of Japan's most significant and now-closed distilleries, ceased production entirely after its closure, leaving a finite supply of whisky that has become highly sought after by collectors worldwide. Known for their depth, sherry influence, and distinctive character, Karuizawa bottles regularly achieve record prices at auction and have achieved a cult status. The offering of full casks is extraordinarily rare. Each cask contains around 420 bottles (standard 700 ml), giving buyers the opportunity to acquire Karuizawa in its purest form, before bottling, and to determine its future maturation and release. They represent not just whisky, but a tangible piece of history from one of Japan's most iconic distilleries. Sukhinder Singh, c ... More

"ECHOES. Skin Contact" explores the interplay between the body and mediated reality MUNICH.- Haus der Kunst's annual live exhibition ECHOES continues to explore the interplay between the human body and mediated reality. In 2026, ECHOES returns from 30.1. to 8.2.26 with two multi-year research projects and a rich programme of performances, concerts, talks, and live video installations. Alongside the exhibition “For Children. Art Stories since 1968”, the fourth edition “ECHOES. Skin Contact” turns to coming-of-age in a world shaped by digital technologies and asks how we connect with one another, and with humans and non-humans alike. Across two weekends, artists invite audiences into spheres of deep reflection with AI infants, amphibian oracles, spectral avatars, and voices of remembered kin, evoking the heightened emotions of coming-of-age: desire and doubt, yearning and uncertainty, solitude and self◻discovery. The first week closes with a truly ... More
New international duo exhibition explores the body and humanity VILNIUS .- Besides its focus on the history of the diaspora art, the Vytautas Kasiulis Museum of Art of the LNDM takes no lesser interest in its contemporary forms. This time, a Berlin resident artist, Aistė Stancikaitė (b.1988 in Lithuania), enters into a dialogue with a Swiss artist, Flurin Bisig (b. 1982), who structures his art on the principles entirely different to Aistė’s. This international event demonstrates the relativity of the prejudices regarding the ties with a specific place. In her art, Aistė Stancikaitė pursues the issues of identity, desire, genderfluid and the structure of sexuality. Her thoroughly layered compositions, mostly paintings combined with drawing, employ repetition, enigmatic figures and the fetishist visual devices to explore the body as a space of psychological reflection and a structure for narrative. Informed by the theoretical systems by Judith Butler, Donna ... More

At the core of The Language of Color is the idea that color produces meaning, rather than merely representing it. Detroit-based multidisciplinary artist Jova Lynne explores this concept through photography, video, installation, and sound—drawing from Caribbean diasporic experience, material culture, and ... More

Jo Ractliffe's forty-year retrospective debuts at Jeu de Paume PARIS.- Born in Cape Town in 1961, Jo Ractliffe is a major figure of contemporary photography, although her work has been little shown in France. Her oeuvre is often associated with discourse on violence and how trauma manifests in the landscape, marked by the legacies of colonialism, apartheid, and the scars of conflict in countries like Angola. From the perspective of documentary photography, the singularity of her artistic approach lies in the way she represents the relationship between presence and absence. Her images, far from illustrating socio-political facts and events, encourage viewers to go beyond the surface and to look for the stories hidden deep in the landscape. For the first time, this monographic exhibition examines the notion of “place” as a central theme of her work. For the artist, the spaces she photographs are not simply geographical locations ...

Ruimiao Wang on bridging classical technique and Manhattan's contemporary edge NEW YORK, NY.- In this intimate conversation, Chinese-born painter Ruimiao (Amanda) Wang discusses the evolution of her practice from the rigorous, traditional halls of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) to the vibrant, contemporary landscape of Manhattan’s School of Visual Arts (SVA). Known for her evocative use of "numb blankness" and a palette of muted maroons and grays, Wang delves into how the expressive distortions of Egon Schiele and the sensory realities of womanhood—from the pain of menstruation to the weight of social invisibility—inform her work. Through a lens that is both deeply personal and analytically observant, she reveals how she transforms the female form into a vessel for the quiet, often unvoiced psychological depths of the contemporary observer. It probably has something to do with my university experience. ... More
