A lot can be learned about a clothing brand by who wears it. (Amir Hamja/The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- Every season, many lovely dresses are shown in many lovely cities. Runways are a montage of opulence — exquisite suits in Paris, sumptuous bags in Milan. It can be beautiful. It can be skull-crushingly boring.

Among the most ... More Future Mechanism Rag Plus Two Grams presents a group of sculptures, shown together for the first time, and a new collaborative video. COPENHAGEN.- Nina Canell’s work foregrounds process and synergy, radically questioning material hierarchies and histories. Recognising sculpture as something that runs through and across bodies, Canell contests the understanding of things and materials as invariant, passive, and indifferent. Grounded as much in chance encounters as in close study, her work considers the shared capacity of all materials to transform and ... More Arthur Monroe in his Oakland studio. photo by Kirk Crippens and Torre McQueen.

More Michelangelo The Genius Who Got Better With Age with Sarah Vowles More News New construction blocking the view? 'If you can't beat them, join them. NEW YORK, NY.- What do you do when the neighbors’ construction threatens your view? That’s the situation Katie and Sam Benrubi found themselves in when the owners of the small beachfront house in front of them on Fire Island began working on plans to knock it down and build a taller structure in its place. The Benrubis’ house in Ocean Bay Park, New York, sat on a gentle rise and had a beautiful ocean view over the top of Nick and Andrea Papapetros’ home. “We were so concerned we were going to lose our view,” said Katie Benrubi, 65, a corporate branding and merchandising consultant. “We’re one house back” from the ocean, she added, “yet we can sit on our deck or anywhere upstairs and have wonderful ocean views.” So she and Sam Benrubi, 69, who hosts a wine-focused podcast, “The Grape Nation,” got in touch with the architects des ... More Here's why 'The Matrix' is more relevant than ever NEW YORK, NY.- Neo, the hero of “The Matrix,” is sure he lives in 1999. He has a green-hued cathode-ray-tube computer screen and a dot-matrix printer. His city has working phone booths. But he’s wrong: He lives in the future (2199, to be exact). Neo’s world is a simulation — a fake-out version of the late 20th century, created by 21st-century artificial intelligences to enslave humanity. When we first saw Neo, though, it really was 1999. The idea of AI feeding on human brains and bodies seemed like a thought experiment. But the movie’s warnings about AI — and everything else — have sharpened over time, which explains why it’s been harnessed by all kinds of people in the years since: philosophers, pastors, technoboosters and technodoomers, the alt-right. Judged solely on cultural relevance, “The Matrix” might be the most ... More How Hollywood glamour is reviving the endangered Broadway play NEW YORK, NY.- Robert Downey Jr. is deep in rehearsals for his Broadway debut next month as an artificial intelligence-obsessed novelist in “McNeal.” Next spring, George Clooney arrives for his own Broadway debut in “Good Night, and Good Luck,” and Denzel Washington returns, after a seven-year absence, to star in “Othello” with Jake Gyllenhaal. Then comes an even more surprising debut: Keanu Reeves plans to begin his Broadway career in the fall of 2025, opposite his longtime “Bill & Ted” slacker-buddy Alex Winter in “Waiting for Godot,” the ur-two-guys-being-unimpressive tragicomedy. Broadway, still adapting to sharply higher production costs and audiences that have not fully rebounded since the coronavirus pandemic, is betting big on star power, hoping that a helping of Hollywood glamour will hasten its rejuvenation. ... More 80WSE presents "Legacies: Asian American Art Movements in New York City (1969-2001)" NEW YORK, NY.- Legacies: Asian American Art Movements in New York City (1969-2001) is an expansive survey of rarely-seen artwork and archival material by artists that constitute and exceed “Asian American,” a label denoting a cultural and national identity invented in 1968. Presenting over 90 artists and collectives, Legacies is the first institutional survey exhibition focusing on artists of Asian descent who were based in New York City. Utilizing an interdisciplinary and research-driven praxis, Legacies uncovers how artists of Asian descent have historically negotiated identity in America as a set of situated practices and institutional structures amidst transnational diasporas, racial phantasms, and political imaginaries. Legacies features works – paintings, drawings, sculpture, and new media, among other mediums – that serve to complicate ... More On Netflix, a very British 'Love Is Blind' NEW YORK, NY.- Tom Stroud, a 38-year-old advertising consultant, sits on the floor of a 12-foot-square room on the reality dating show “Love is Blind: U.K.,” facing a blank wall. On the other side is Natasha Waters, a 32-year-old job counselor, who has just told Tom that he’s everything she’s looking for in a man. He’s flattered — but he needs to let her know that he’s interested in somebody else. “I can feel how good you are,” he begins tentatively. “Um ... but ... I’m thinking about, sort of, um,” he trails off. He stares off into the distance, sighs heavily, fidgets with a ballpoint pen. “I need to be really honest with you ...” he says, after a long pause. “I don’t know if it’s romantic love ... it could just be friendship.” It may be no surprise to learn that Stroud is from Britain. This is, after all, the country’s archetypal reticence on display — a contrast ... More Ballroom Marfa announces "Julie Speed: The Suburbs of Eden " MARFA, TX.- Ballroom Marfa announced the upcoming Fall 2024 exhibition from Julie Speed, The Suburbs of Eden opening Friday, September 20, 2024. The exhibition brings together paintings, collages, and gouaches from Julie Speed created over multiple decades. Speed, whose work is often compared to that of the Surrealists, Dada, and Renaissance painters, has an artistic style that struggles to fit neatly into any art historical period. The work is both outside of reality and tied to it. An astute draftsperson, Speed depicts strong, often non-gendered figures inhabiting dream-like spaces, offering comfort in the shared nature of our inner thoughts. Speed confronts universally shared experiences and stories, clothing her figures in humanity itself. Torsos and limbs are transformed into scenes of war, politics, architecture, and nature. We ... More Solo exhibition includes 15 large format tapestries by the Berlin artist Margret Eicher KARLSRUHE.- The ZKM | Karlsruhe is showing works by the Berlin artist Margret Eicher. Titled “Margret Eicher: Digital Worlds,” the solo exhibition includes 15 large format tapestries featuring iconic motifs from our contemporary media reality. The exhibition is in direct proximity and dialog with “zkm_gameplay. the next level,” the ZKM's interactive gaming platform, as well as the presentation of the Kunsthalle Karlsruhe at ZKM. ("Margret Eicher: Digital Worlds” 3.8.-10.11.2024). Margret Eicher's multi-layered work is characterized by the tension between the courtly medium of the tapestry and the digitally generated collages of motifs from set pieces of the iconography of contemporary gaming and digital culture. Like their historical models, Eicher’s Work, which she refers to as “Medientapisserien®” (media tapestries) are woven in Flanders ... More "Jacqueline Burckhardt: My Commedia dell'Arte" out now NEW YORK, NY.- The new English edition of La mia commedia dell’arte (2022) is published in handy paperback format. It is complemented by a rediscovered letter from Ernst H. Gombrich and a text by Catherine Schelbert, adding two more voices to those that speak of Jacqueline Burckhardt’s contribution to the field of art. Burckhardt’s life is art, approached from many angles: as a former restorer, as an art historian, as the early initiator of the performance program at the Kunsthaus Zürich, as co-editor of the art journal Parkett, as curator of site-specific art on the Novartis Campus in Basel, as a lecturer a the Accademia di architettura in Mendrisio, and as director of the Sommerakademie im Zentrum Paul Klee (SAK). Her cultural commitment also includes presiding over the Swiss Federal Art Commission for nine years. An in-depth ... More Smithsonian American Art Museum to open "Tuan Andrew Nguyen: The Island" WASHINGTON, DC.- Tuan Andrew Nguyen's solo presentation at the Smithsonian American Art Museum is on view from August 16, 2024 through May 4, 2025. This exhibition marks Nguyen's Washington debut, in which his video work The Island, 2017, recently acquired by SAAM, will be shown for the first time with Bidong Spirit I, a sculptural headdress the artist created for the film. Artist Tuan Andrew Nguyen creates multimedia installations that blend fact, memory, myth, and mysticism and use lush imagery to draw out these entanglements. By digging deep into archives and collaborating with communities, his projects weave together many voices to reveal other truths about — and strategies of repair from — colonial violence. In this Washington, DC debut, his video work The Island (2017) is shown for the first time with Bidong Spirit I, a sculpted ... More Messums West announces "Tessa Campbell Fraser: Whales" TISBURY.- This exhibition forms part of the Active Environmentalism programming at Messums Org which is founded on the principle that action begins with knowledge. British sculptor and climate change advocate, Tessa Campbell Fraser aims to unravel the interspecies communications between man and animal that are currently at the forefront of scientific research. Three monumental (5.2m, 4.6m and 3m respectively) sculptures of sperm whales will hang from the roof of the tithe barn. The open timbers and roofbeams of the barn are reminiscent of an upturned boat, carrying subliminal associations with the industrial scale whaling which reduced sperm whale numbers to critical levels in the 19th century, when their waxy spermaceti oil famously oiled the wheels of the Industrial Revolution. The sculptures offer a response ... More Tolarno Galleries presents "Peter Atkins: Built Form" MELBOURNE.- Tolarno Galleries will present Peter Atkins’ new exhibition of paintings, collages and one sculpture, Built Form. On display in Gallery 2, the works are derived from the Melbourne-based artist’s everyday perambulations through a variety of urban, suburban and industrial environments. Observing a storefront, factory facade, roofline or roller door, Atkins takes numerous photographs and notes, carefully studying the architecture, decoration and signage. Then, back in the studio, Atkins reduces the forms of these visual encounters to the fundamentals of colour and line, creating bright, hard-edge abstractions that pulse with vitality. The exhibition begins with a series of eight acrylic paintings on board, the titles of which reveal the extent of Atkins’ wanderings throughout Melbourne and journeys beyond – Moorabbin, Glen Waverley, Footscray, Coburg. ...
