HOUSTON, TX.- Ruth Asawa Through Line is the first exhibition to focus on the artist’s drawing practice. For Ruth Asawa (1926–2013), drawing marked the beginning of a lifelong interest in and commitment to art, playing a foundational role as she experimented with diverse materials and processes to develop a distinct visual language. Co-organized by the Menil Collection and the Whitney Museum of American Art, in close collaboration with the estate of Ruth Asawa, the exhibition presents drawings, collages, watercolors, and sketchbooks alongside stamped prints, paperfolds, and copper-foil works, showing the breadth of Asawa’s innovative practice. Ruth Asawa Through Line will be on view at the Menil Drawing Institute until July 21, 2024. Rebecca Rabinow, Director, The Menil Collection, said: “Ruth Asawa’s drawings are complex and rich, owing much to her striking creativity, her curiosity about the world around her, her cultural background as an American ...

Delving into the secret lives of old Hong Kong buildings
HONG KONG.- Sacha Yasumoto likes to serve dinner with a side of danger. Her guests are blindfolded and driven to a mystery location in the middle of nowhere Hong Kong. Depending on the night in question, they might have to trek into the jungle to reach their final destination. Here, in the decaying ruins of a mansion or temple or other abandoned site, the guests might be served a menu of kabocha potage, gin jake (salmon), slow-cooked wagyu beef and chocolate cake, while at any moment, a bat, gecko or wild monkey could make an appearance. “It’s all multisensory,” said Yasumoto, who has been organizing these 30-40 person Dangerous Dinners in Hong Kong since early 2023. “Things like the wind, the creaking, maybe the passing leopard cat.” The meals are a chance to get a glimpse of a ...

Maurizio Pollini, celebrated pianist who defined modernism, dies at 82
NEW YORK, NY.- Maurizio Pollini, an Italian pianist of formidable intellectual powers whose unrivaled technique and unwavering interpretive integrity made him the modernist master of the instrument, died Saturday morning in Milan. He was 82. His death, in a clinic, was announced by the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, where he performed frequently. The announcement did not specify a cause, but Pollini had been forced to cancel a concert at the Salzburg Festival in 2022 because of heart problems and had pulled out of a number of subsequent recitals. Pollini, who performed for more than half a century, was that rare pianist who compelled listeners to think deeply. He was an artist of rigor and reserve whose staunch assurance, uncompromising directness and steadfast dedication to his ideals were evidence of what his colleague Daniel ... More

It's a golden age for shipwreck discoveries. Why?
NEW YORK, NY.- Some were fabled vessels that have fascinated people for generations, like Endurance, Ernest Shackleton’s ship that sank in the Antarctic in 1915. Some were common workhorses that faded into the depths, like the Ironton, a barge that was carrying 1,000 tons of grain when it sank in Lake Huron in 1894. No matter their place in history, more shipwrecks are being found these days than ever before, according to those who work in the rarefied world of deep-sea exploration. “More are being found, and I also think more people are paying attention,” said James P. Delgado, an underwater archaeologist based in Washington, D.C. He added: “We’re in a transitional phase where the true period of deep-sea and ocean exploration in general is truly beginning.” Experts point to a number of factors. Technology, they say, has made ... More

New and historical works by Anselm Kiefer engage in a profound dialogue at Palazzo Strozzi
FLORENCE.- Palazzo Strozzi presents a major exhibition dedicated to one of the greatest masters of the 20th and 21st century art, Anselm Kiefer. The exhibition allows direct contact with the art of the German artist thorough new and historical works that engage in a profound dialogue with the Renaissance architecture of Palazzo Strozzi, including a new work especially created for the palace’s internal courtyard. Curated by Arturo Galansino, General Director of the Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi, Anselm Kiefer. Fallen Angel is a journey that reflects on topics such as identity, history, and philosophy. Through painting, sculpture, installation and photography, Kiefer’s art offers deep introspection into the human condition, in a complex weaving of connections between the past, present and future. Since his debut on the art scene in the late sixties, ... More

Piknik, a longtime Russian rock band, stands at center of tragedy
NEW YORK, NY.- Early Saturday, Piknik, one of Russia’s most popular heritage rock bands, published a message to its page on Vkontakte, one of the country’s largest social media sites: “We are deeply shocked by this terrible tragedy and mourn with you.” The night before, the band was scheduled to play the first of two sold-out concerts, accompanied by a symphony orchestra, at Crocus City Hall in suburban Moscow. But before Piknik took the stage, four gunmen entered the vast venue, opened fire and murdered at least 133 people. The victims appear to have included some of Piknik’s own team. On Saturday evening, another note appeared on the band’s Vkontakte page to say that the woman who ran the band’s merchandise stalls was missing. “We are not ready to believe the worst,” the message said. The attack at Crocus City Hall has brought renewed att ... More

Shani Mott, Black studies scholar who examined power all around her, dies at 47
NEW YORK, NY.- Shani Mott, a scholar of Black studies at Johns Hopkins University whose examinations of race and power in America extended beyond the classroom to her employer, her city and even her own home, has died in Baltimore. She was 47. She died of adrenal cancer on March 12, said her husband, Nathan Connolly, a professor of history at Johns Hopkins. Although Mott spent her career in some of academia’s elite spaces, she was firmly committed to the idea that scholarship should be grounded and tangible, not succumbing to ivory tower abstraction. She encouraged students to turn a critical eye to their own backgrounds and to the realities of the world around them. In a city such as Baltimore, with its complicated and often cruel racial history, there was plenty to scrutinize. “How do we think about what we’re doing and how ... More

Judith Butler thinks you're overreacting
NEW YORK, NY.- The first thing I did when reading Judith Butler’s new book, “Who’s Afraid of Gender?,” was to look up the word “phantasm,” which appears 41 times in the introduction alone. (It means illusion; the “phantasm of gender,” a threat rooted in fear and fantasy.) The second thing I did was have a good chuckle about the title, because the answer to the question of who is afraid of gender was ... well, I am? Even for someone who has written on gender and feminism for more than a decade and who once carried the title of this newspaper’s “gender editor,” to talk about gender today can feel so fraught, so politicized, so caught in a war of words that debate, or even conversation, seems impossible. I am perhaps the intended reader of Butler’s book, in which the notoriously esoteric philosopher-turned-pop celebrity dismantles ... More

David Zwirner opens 'Wolfgang Tillmans: The Point Is Matter'
HONG KONG.- David Zwirner is presenting The Point Is Matter, a solo exhibition of new and recent work by Wolfgang Tillmans at the gallery’s location in Hong Kong. The exhibition’s title stems from Tillmans’s long-term understanding of his work sitting between the physical reality and presence of the world he works and lives in and the conceptual, sociopolitical, sensual, and spiritual concerns that underpin his practice. Presented across both floors of the gallery, the works on view include depictions of changing forms of atmosphere and elusive natural phenomena; pictures that explore notions of time and temporality; and images that engage with the artist’s expansive conceptions of the still life and the portrait. Tillmans punctuates the exhibition with works made in Addis Ababa, Berlin, Lagos, and Mongolia, along with those ... More
