NEW YORK, NY.- The spirit of creative collaboration is on display in gallery and museum shows this fall and winter. Across the United States, exhibitions focusing on artists’ relationships with each other — such as Henri Matisse and André Derain, and Toshiko Takaezu and Lenore Tawney — and to their subjects — like that of Il Guercino or John Singer Sargent — offer new avenues for audiences to explore their work and contemporary impact. Here is a selection.

New York

NEW YORK CITY

“Henry Taylor: B Side”

The many subjects Henry Taylor has painted over his decadeslong career have included family members, celebrities and strangers, in a body of work that often examines the African American experience.

Through Jan. 28; Whitney Museum of American Art, whitney.org

“Going Dark: The Contemporary Figure at the Edge of Visibility”

Through April 7; Guggenheim Museum, guggenheim.org

“Vertigo of Color: Matisse, Derain, and the Origins of Fauvism”

Fauvism, an artistic style in which landscapes, portraits and still lifes are painted with bold, non-naturalistic colors, can be traced back to one summer in 1905, when Henri Matisse and André Derain worked together in the French fishing village of Collioure. Showcased here are 65 works from and inspired by that period, including portraits Matisse and Derain painted of each other. Through Jan. 21; Metropolitan Museum of Art, metmuseum.org

“Rirkrit Tiravanija: A Lot of People”

The name of this exhibition, the first U.S. survey of Rirkrit Tiravanija, nods to the sense of community that the Thai artist brings to his work, whether by inspiration or actual participation. The show features more than 100 pieces, including works on paper, sculpture and re-creations of Tiravanija’s participatory works, including an updated version of “untitled 1990 (pad thai)” in which actors engage with the audience through cooking.

As part of Christie’s larger 20th Century Evening Sale, the Museum Langmatt in Baden, Switzerland, is placing three paintings by Paul Cézanne — two still lifes and one landscape — from its collection up for auction in an attempt to raise $45 million for the institution’s future operations. Christie’s plans to auction the trio of paintings consecutively — starting with “Fruits et pot de gingembre,” valued at an estimated $35 million to $55 million — until the fundraising goal is reached, returning any remaining works to the museum’s collection.

Now, some of those pieces are going up for auction, including works by Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol and Georgia O’Keeffe, as well as a Pablo Picasso painting — “Femme à la montre” (1932) — that is expected to bring more than $120 million.

“Fashioned by Sargent”

Working at a time when the placement of a single shoulder strap could create a scandal, John Singer Sargent was conscious about the way fashion factored into his portraits and, in the case of “Madame X,” how it reflected the personality and respectability of his high-society subjects. This exhibition collects roughly 50 of his paintings, pairing many with the original garments they depict, to examine the artist’s use of clothing as a signal for wealth, social position or gender identity.
