Roy Lichtenstein, Bellagio Hotel Mural: Still Life with Reclining Nude (Study), 1997.
NEW YORK, NY.- The Whitney Museum of American Art’s current exhibition Roy Lichtenstein: 1997 examines the final year of the artist’s life and work. Already an established painter and Pop artist, Roy Lichtenstein (1923–1997) continued to develop his studio practice at age 73, pursuing ambitious projects, including two mural commissions, several large-scale sculptures, and a new series of prints. The exhibition highlights a period of sustained innovation for Lichtenstein as he expanded his visual vocabulary while continuing to engage with many of the themes and image references that shaped his career. Bringing together studies, prints, models, and other ephemera, many from the Whitney’s collection, Roy Lichtenstein: 1997 offers a focused look at his experimentation and ongoing interest in new technologies and their effects on image making. On view on the Museum’s 3rd floor through June 1, 2027, this exhibition is presented in conjunction with Roy Lichtenstein: Like New, a majo ... More

Declan Haun, Gary, Indiana, c. 1960. Vintage gelatin silver print, 9 x 6 inches, 10 x 8 inch sheet.
LA JOLLA, CA.- Joseph Bellows Gallery is presenting an exhibition of photographs by Declan Haun (1937–1994). A gifted photojournalist and perceptive observer of American life, Declan Haun worked at a time when the boundaries between documentary photography, journalism, and personal expression were becoming increasingly fluid. His photographs have the immediacy of eyewitness accounts, but they are also distinguished by a remarkable sense of composition, timing, and an understanding of human emotion. Haun began his professional career at the Charlotte Observer at the age of twenty-one. In 1963, he moved to Chicago, where he worked for the next fifteen years as a freelance photographer. Represented by the influential Black Star photo agency, which at various times worked with many esteemed photographers including W. Eugene Smith, Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, and Bill Brandt. Haun was part of a remarkable tradition of photographers whose work moved between the illustrated press and a more pe ... More

LENOX, MA.-Sohn Fine Art is presenting Dark Side of the Moon, a compelling group exhibition featuring photography and unconventional materials by Marieken Cochius, Chuck Kelton, Regina Durante Jestrow, and Jonathan Prince. The exhibition explores expansive territory where art intersects with material experimentation, revealing practices that move beyond the expected limits of each medium. The works offer a meditation on perception, transformation, and the enduring allure of the unknown. The exhibition is on view through October 5. Borrowing its title from the unseen hemisphere of Earth's celestial companion, Dark Side of the Moon invites viewers to consider what exists beyond immediate visibility. Rather than suggesting darkness as absence, the title points toward what remains unseen - hidden processes and the invisible forces that shape experiences. Like the lunar hemisphere that is perpetually turned away from our view, these works invite ... More
PHILADELPHIA, PA.- In fall 2026, the Barnes Foundation will resent Noguchi to Asawa: Designing Postwar America, a groundbreaking exhibition that reconsiders 20th-century art and design within the context of Japanese and Japanese American incarceration during World War II and the broader history of Asian America. This exhibition will be the first to explore how this tumultuous era of Japanese American history formed a foundation for modern art and design in the United States. Conceived and curated by Cindy Kang, curator at the Barnes, this exhibition is on view in the Roberts Gallery from September 20, 2026, through January 10, 2027. Beauty and craftsmanship are hallmarks of midcentury Japanese American art and design. From Isamu Noguchi’s iconic furniture to Ruth Asawa’s inventive wire sculptures, Japanese American artists transformed the aesthetic landscape of postwar America. Yet beneath this artistry lies a shared history marked by forced relocation and incarceration during World War II. Con ... More
Emmanuel Louisnord Desir, Fury of the Saints, 2026. Carved wood, 57"H x 36"W x 35"D.
LOS ANGELES, CA.- Rough Ways of the Delicate Ones marks the second solo exhibition with Sebastian Gladstone Gallery by Los Angeles-based artist Emmanuel Louisnord Desir. Featuring eight new works, the exhibition continues Desir’s exploration of metamorphosis, endurance, and reclamation. Across these works, bodies and belief systems shift under pressures accumulated across time and generations. The exhibition takes its title from Baruch 4:26: “My delicate ones have gone rough ways, and were taken away as a flock caught by the enemies.” Desir considers delicacy not as weakness, but as a capacity for care, love, and righteousness—qualities made vulnerable by conditions that harden, corrupt, or lead one astray. His figures appear accordingly converted: amalgamations of bodies, creatures, machines, and symbols at once armored and exposed, guarded and reaching outward. Evolving from his Born to Win presentation, where Desir investigated ancient systems and legacies of resistance, Rough Way ... More

Roy DeCarava, Jimmy Garrison, c. 1961. Silver gelatin print, 14 x 11 inches (35.6 x 27.9 cm) Framed: 20 3/8 x 16 3/8 inches (51.8 x 41.6 cm).
LOS ANGELES, CA.- David Zwirner opened an exhibition of photographs by Roy DeCarava curated by Ebony L. Haynes, at the gallery’s 606 N Western Avenue location in Los Angeles. On view is the sound i saw, DeCarava’s unwavering exploration of the relationship between the visual and the aural created between the late 1940s and the 1960s. Bringing together more than 130 images, this is the largest presentation of this body of work since its inaugural exhibition at the Studio Museum in Harlem, New York, in 1983. Presented in an adjacent gallery at 616 N Western Avenue is a listening room inspired by the artist’s work. Over the course of his more than six-decade career, New-York-born-and-based DeCarava produced a singular oeuvre of black-and-white photographs of modern life that combine formal acuity with an intimate and deeply human treatment of his subject matter. DeCarava worked with a handheld 35mm camera, which enabled him to move easily throughout the city, allowing him to recognize and id ... More
Amol K Patil, The Piled Up Traces - S9, 2025. Bronze sculpture with moving light and motor, 62 x 26 x 23 inches (157.5 x 66 x 58.5 cm.)
LOS ANGELES, CA.- François Ghebaly is presenting The Piled-Up Traces, Amol K Patil’s first exhibition with the gallery, and the first presentation of his work in Los Angeles. Following its debut at the 12th SITE SANTA FE International, curated by Cecilia Alemani, The Piled-Up Traces brings together Patil’s work in bronze, kinetic sculpture and drawing in an overarching, theatrical installation exploring class and caste-based exploitation. Patil’s work draws from the artist’s Dalit background and family’s history of activism: his grandfather was a poet, and his father an avant-garde playwright. Patil continues this tradition of protest, responding directly to the conditions of daily life in Mumbai’s chawls, dense housing complexes built in the 1900s to house migrant workers, which continue to be a locus of resistance within the Dalit community. Patil models his sculptures in clay and casts them in bronze, before carefully applying a patina that mimics skin. His sculptures in ... More
WASHINGTON, DC.- “Much Here Is Beautiful: Photography Surveys of the U.S. Bicentennial” at the Smithsonian American Art Museum brings together, for the first time, photography surveys that capture an expansive and evocative portrait of America in the years surrounding the 1976 U.S. Bicentennial. From the California coast to the Kansas heartland to the streets of New York City, the exhibition features images taken across the country by more than 70 photographers as part of the federally funded Surveys Grant Program. Bringing together 225 photographs, “Much Here Is Beautiful” places the Bicentennial images within the broader legacy of federal survey photography dating back to the 19th century and its lasting impact on generations of artists. “Much Here Is Beautiful” is the culmination of years of research, drawing on the museum’s rich photography holdings and uncovering U.S. Bicentennial survey photographs held in collections nationwide, revealing new discoveries and pr ...

The late-16th-century document will remain on view through December 6, 2026, at the National Museum of Anthropology.
MEXICO CITY.- Nearly two centuries after leaving Mexico, the Codex Azcatitlan has returned to the country for a temporary exhibition at the National Museum of Anthropology, where it is being shown as part of celebrations marking 200 years of diplomatic relations between Mexico and France. The exhibition, The Codex Azcatitlan. Mexico-France, 200 Years of Friendship, opened on September 17 and will remain on view through December 6, 2026. It marks the first time the manuscript has been exhibited in Mexico since it left the country in 1840. Produced in the Valley of Mexico in the late 16th and early 17th centuries, the Codex Azcatitlan is one of the most important surviving manuscripts documenting the history of the Mexica people. Across 20 folios, it combines Mesoamerican pictorial traditions with European writing to recount the migration of the Mexica from Aztlan to the founding of Mexico-Tenochtitlan, the reigns of the city’s rulers, and the upheavals that followed the arrival of the Spanish, i ...

The Verge of Balance, 2026 by Ilse Van Roy & Frederic Geurts.
ANTWERP.- Ilse Van Roy and Frederic Geurts have chosen the title Pas de deux for their joint exhibition at valerie_traan gallery. It is a term that actually originates from ballet. Two dancers, a man and a woman, move towards and away from each other in a duet. It immediately brings to mind Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker, perhaps the most famous pas de deux, first performed in 1892 in a choreography by Lev Ivanov. Now, I can well imagine that Ilse and Frederic would prefer, as a prototype, the pas de deux from Pina Bausch’s Vollmond (2006), because here classical ballet technique gives way to a bolder formal language – more anarchic, rawer, more direct. But if we look beyond the imposed virtuosity of classical ballet, we encounter here just as much the essence of the pas de deux: it is about the intense dynamic between man and woman, their complex quest that draws them irresistibly towards one another in an eternally paradoxical interplay of connection, separation and reconnection. ...

FAIRFIELD, CONN.- Fairfield University Art Museum is presenting Hieroglyphs to Hype: The Modern Afterlife of Ancient Egypt, on view from September 18 – December 12, 2026, in the Museum’s Bellarmine Hall Galleries. This exhibition explores the enduring fascination with ancient Egyptian art and culture (dubbed “Egyptomania” by 19th-century Europeans) through a selection of paintings, prints, photographs, sculpture, and decorative art ranging from the early 19th century through the present day. These objects, from the humble to the refined, from the shamelessly commercial to the Afrofuturist, represent the range of artistic responses to—and misconceptions about—ancient Egyptian visual culture. Lenders to the exhibition include the Yale Center for British Art, the Wadsworth Atheneum, the Hood Museum of Art, and Yale University Art Gallery, in addition to artists and private collectors. The exhibition is curated by Museum Registrar Megan Paqua, who explains that the idea for the ... More

Paul Thiebaud Gallery celebrates 25th anniversary with San Francisco survey exhibition SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Paul Thiebaud Gallery announced the opening of 'Celebrating 25 Years at Paul Thiebaud Gallery', a survey of artists and works exhibited by the gallery over the past quarter century. Although not a comprehensive overview, the exhibition includes selected key artists and works from important exhibitions in the gallery’s history. The exhibition will be on view through November 7, 2026. Founded in 2001 by Paul LeBaron Thiebaud (1960-2010), the gallery began in a 1,000 square foot storefront space located at 718 Columbus Avenue in San Francisco, with administrative offices around the corner on Union Street.

Randy Wray debuts hothouse-inspired abstractions in solo exhibition at Karma LOS ANGELES, CA.- Describing the process of preparing for this exhibition over the last two years, Randy Wray referred to his studio as “a kind of hothouse where I’m growing paintings.” Sealed off from the world’s vicissitudes, the hothouse is a protective enclosure. Rare species flower and multiply in liquid-thick air. While retaining his characteristic earthy, virescent palette and organic forms, these new abstractions have a sharp, lustrous quality, as if crystallized in some sultry climate. Time is among Wray’s core materials. He works elliptically over long periods, leaving and returning to compositions, reconstituting select elements. His surfaces are dense and topographical, registering these intervals in tracts alternately burnished or matte, ridged or scarred. Paintings often contain traces of earlier works: transplanted forms swell, shrink, or are otherwise defamiliarized in their new settings. As with words, meaning is shaped by context. A collection of fine lines in ... More
Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art presents two new desert-focused exhibitions SCOTTSDALE, AZ.- Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art presents two new exhibitions that engage in a thought-provoking dialogue about differing relationships to the desert: one centered on expansion and displacement, the other on reciprocity and ecological knowledge. Model Home by alejandro t. acierto examines the impact of development and population growth, surveying how this expansion has altered the landscape and affected its human and nonhuman inhabitants, while asking who gets to keep home in the desert. What the Earth Keeps by Desert ArtLAB (April Bojorquez and Matt Garcia) imagines the land’s agency over human systems—consumption, domesticity, social hierarchy, colonial power—that attempt to control it, asking what happens if we listen to what the land already knows. Together, they generate tensions between extraction and reciprocity, ownership and belonging, and human control and land agency. Model Home investigates the development of the desert landscape across the Southwest, fo ... More
Maastricht museum presents major tribute exhibition to photojournalist Eve Arnold MAASTRICHT.- Fotomuseum aan het Vrijthof in Maastricht presents a tribute to the life and work of the legendary American photojournalist Eve Arnold (1912-2012) from 19 September 2026 until 31 January 2027. The large retrospective exhibition All about Eve features a selection of 130 iconic black-and-white and colour photographs from her impressive oeuvre, with a focus on the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s.

parrasch heijnen presents career survey of Los Angeles artist Charles Dickson LOS ANGELES, CA.- parrasch heijnen is presenting Charles Dickson: Select Works, 1965 - 2026, the gallery’s first exhibition with the Los Angeles-based artist. Charles Dickson (b. 1947, Los Angeles, CA), whose sculptures and public installations explore the African American diaspora, is a significant member of the Black arts community of Los Angeles. Focusing on the artist’s deep experimental inquiry into material use, this exhibition includes work spanning Dickson’s more than sixty-year career. Integrating various processes and media, including wood, metal, bronze, Styrofoam, and acrylic, Dickson’s assemblage work utilizes disparate elements to engage in a dialogue about the politics of beauty. His core interest in material reflects his observation of a medium’s capacity to contest the mechanical, creative, spiritual, and political contexts it inhabits. At age 19 Dickson studied under renowned figurative artist Charles White and later worked alongside Noah Purifoy, John Outterbr ... More
Raymond Meeks explores industrial relics and memory in new Casemore Gallery show SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Casemore Gallery is presenting Assemblage, an exhibition of recent photographs by Raymond Meeks. The exhibition presents pictures Meeks made of abandoned and ruined welding and wood-shop structures taken over 18 months at a worksite along the outskirts of Kingston, NY (in the hamlet of Cranesville, NY). In these images, we see his own active interventions among the detritus left behind, utilitarian relics from which he created provisional sculptures and aesthetic compositions, temporary assemblages for the camera that breathe a second life and new consideration into the formerly quotidian. Tweaking artistic notions of assemblage while taking cues from Russian Constructivism, the early 20th-century movement concerned with constructing a new social/material reality, Meeks’ work here is concerned with a more intimate question of how humans construct reality—and themselves—from what they inherit. If the original Constructivists were interested in constructing a future, Meek ... More
Tony Rizzi presents most comprehensive exhibition of his photographic work to date FRANKFURT.- "Now I begin my life in Frankfurt. I really like it here and feel like I should be here. I feel like there’s a protective presence by my side at all times…strange. WORK HARD, DON’T LIE, AND TRY NOT TO HURT ANYONE." - Excerpt from Tony Rizzi’s diary (September 7th, 1985) This quote frames the most comprehensive exhibition to date of the renowned US-American dancer, choreographer, and photographic artist Tony Rizzi (*1965, USA).

Benton Museum of Art opens Saul Steinberg Foundation gift exhibition CLAREMONT, CA.- The Benton Museum of Art at Pomona College announced its fall exhibition “Give Them a Riddle”: Gifts from The Saul Steinberg Foundation, on view from August 22, 2026, to January 3, 2027. While best known for his drawings in The New Yorker magazine, Steinberg is also renowned as a leading twentieth-century artist, philosopher, and cultural critic. Featuring more than 60 works across multiple media recently given to the museum by The Saul Steinberg Foundation, this exhibition traces Steinberg’s inventive artistic practice over five decades, during which he developed a distinctive, playful graphic language that he skillfully employed to satirize and critique the cultural habits and conditions of the post–World War II era. “With profound gratitude to The Saul Steinberg Foundation, we are thrilled to present a wide range of works by Steinberg, including more familiar, iconic drawings alongside more personal portraits and table-top sculptures,” says Victoria San ...

Vanessa Amoah Opoku and June Drevet collaborate on Synthesizing Realities exhibition STUTTGART.- What connects us to a home, to others, and to where we come from, even across distance? How do images come into being that not only depict but also forge relationships? Synthesizing Realities takes its starting point from the eponymous artist’s book, which we—the artist and the critic—developed in 2025 and 2026, and in which we synthesized our perspectives on the relationship between our bodies and technologies, on digital sensing, and decolonial forms of photographic images. In our conversations, Vanessa Amoah Opoku’s installations took center stage. For several years now, the artist has been deliberately using sensing technologies that embody colonial logics. By altering their use, Opoku transforms these instruments of measurement and of control into means for actively shaping self-determined narrative and portrayal by racialized bodies. In this context, diaspora is not seen as a loss, but as a condition from which new technologies of relationship emerge. The book ... More
Hirshhorn debuts major sculpture by Elmgreen & Dragset WASHINGTON, DC.- The Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden has announced the acquisition of a monumental new sculpture by Elmgreen & Dragset, an artist duo celebrated for large-scale installations that investigate the complexity of societal norms and structures. Commissioned for the Sculpture Garden, “Eight” (2026) extends the artists’ decades-long preoccupation with the pool motif. Cast in stainless steel with a lacquered cyan interior, and furnished with a diving board, ladder and lights, “Eight” evokes ideas of leisure through the form of a typical backyard pool. Upended, empty and eternally unswimmable, the 28-foot-tall sculpture emblematizes the artists’ mastery of displacement—excerpting familiar objects from people’s surroundings and presenting them as new and strange. Placed like a beacon at the north entrance to the Hirshhorn campus, inside the Sculpture Garden, the large, bright artwork delivers a playful introduction to the national ... More
