Tia-Thuy Nguyen, Fairer than a fairy, 2026. Embellishment on canvas, 200 x 300 cm. 78 3/4 x 118 in.
SHANGHAI.- Almine Rech Shanghai is presenting ‘Fields of Resonance’, Tia-Thuy Nguyen’s third solo exhibition with the gallery, on view from August 28 to October 31, 2026. Cloudscapes are endlessly mutable. Yet observed from the same place over the course of a year, they reveal recurring patterns of their own. Much like climate, every place is marked by recurring patterns of cloud cover—dense or sparse, light or heavy, each season bringing with it a familiar sky. Towering cumulus clouds—a familiar presence in the skies of Vietnamese artist Tia-Thuy Nguyen’s hometown—occasionally appear in continental landscapes far drier than Vietnam. When they do, they can leave people, half in jest, wondering: Am I still here? Or have I somehow arrived in another city? Fleeting and ever-changing, clouds possess a quiet yet remarkable ability to unsettle our confidence in ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- Asian Art Week returns to New York, bringing together exceptional museum and private collections that celebrate the enduring appeal of Chinese Works of Art over two live auctions and an online sale. Taken together, these auctions offer a singular opportunity for collectors, with hundreds of lots featuring works of great rarity, quality, and exceptional provenance.

Many works entered the museum in the early 20th century as landmark gifts and bequests from renowned patrons including Russell Tyson, Henry C. Schwab, Kate Sturges Buckingham and Stanley Herzman, whose collections helped shape ... More
Ships, figures, animals, landscapes and surreal scenes emerge from the edges and patterns of the original plates, transforming fragments of something that was once broken into entirely new worlds.
BURLINGAME, CA.- A broken family heirloom might seem like the end of a story. For artist Rob Strati, it was the beginning of one. The first piece in Strati’s acclaimed Fragmented series began with something deeply ordinary: a piece of porcelain dinnerware that broke. The plate belonged to Barbara, Rob’s wife’s late mother. One day, it was accidentally dropped and shattered. But Strati couldn't simply throw the fragment away. He kept it, and at some point afterward, he picked up a pen and began working with what was left. That simple act became the foundation for Fragmented, an ongoing body of work in which Strati works with pieces of vintage porcelain, preserving their original decorative patterns while extending and transforming them through incredibly intricate ink drawings. Ships, figures, animals, landscapes and surreal scenes emerge from the edges and ... More

Espoo Museum of Modern Art presents major survey of Howard Smith ESPOO.- EMMA – Espoo Museum of Modern Art presents the long-awaited retrospective dedicated to Howard Smith (1928–2021). Best known for his printed fabrics for Vallila and ceramics for Arabia, Smith was also an exceptionally versatile artist who worked across painting, collage, papercuts, sculpture, textiles and public art.

rodolphe janssen to present Matthew Hansel solo booth at The Armory Show NEW YORK, NY.- rodolphe janssen announced its sixth participation at The Armory Show in September 2026 with a solo project by Matthew Hansel (born 1977, Front Royal, VA, USA; lives and works in Brooklyn, NY, USA), who presents a series of new paintings. In his 1891 essay entitled, “The Critic as Artist”, Oscar Wilde wrote, “Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.” Wilde asserts that people are unreliable narrators when restricted by the confines of selfhood. It is necessary then, that we find a way to subvert the self, so that we may be free from convention and express ourselves fully. It is the use of the mask (literal or figurative) that shields us and offers us protection from the world around us; from the norms, customs and mores of our time. These masks are part costume and part armor. We ... More
Netherlands Open Air Museum seeks to document the working lives of contemporary sex workers ARNHEM.- The Netherlands Open Air Museum is turning its attention to a profession that has been part of society for centuries but remains largely absent from traditional museum collections: sex work. The museum in Arnhem has issued a call for contemporary sex workers willing to share not only the objects they use in their profession, but also the personal stories that surround their work. It is specifically looking for adults who receive clients in person while also working online through platforms such as OnlyFans, reflecting the increasingly hybrid nature of the profession. The initiative is part of the museum’s broader effort to document everyday life and work in the Netherlands for future generations. Over the decades, the institution has assembled buildings, objects, photographs, tools and personal accounts that together trace how Dutch people have lived and ... More
Aargauer Kunsthaus asks what creativity means in the age of artificial intelligence AARAU.- Can a machine be creative? And when artificial intelligence helps produce an image, a text or even an artistic decision, who can claim authorship? Those questions sit at the heart of Artificial Creativity, a new exhibition opening at the Aargauer Kunsthaus on September 26, 2026. Bringing together 14 artists and artist collaborations, the exhibition examines how artificial intelligence is entering the creative process — not simply as a new tool, but as a technology that is changing ideas about authorship, responsibility and even what society considers creative in the first place. On view through January 10, 2027, the exhibition comes at a moment when generative AI has moved remarkably quickly from a technological curiosity into everyday life. Since the public launch of ChatGPT at the end of 2022, artificial intelligence has become increasingly visible ... More

Glenstone Museum debuts new Nick Cave commission this fall POTOMAC, MD.- Glenstone Museum announced a new installation by Nick Cave (b. 1959). Opening Saturday, September 19, in Room 1 of the Pavilions building, the exhibition will be on view through spring 2028.
