Photo: Corey Marsau. SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Yerba Buena Center for the Arts is presenting Nick Dong: 11 to 88, an immersive solo exhibition by the visionary craftsman, sculptor, and engineer. The Oakland-based artist merges the ethos of Wen-ren—a Chinese intellectual lineage that values the creation of each work as a quest for self-evolution—with 21st century scientific precision. Fascinated by the beauty of the unknowable, Dong creates mesmerizing and expansive works made up of various interactive components, including sound, light, and mirrors. Dong sees his immersive installations as complete only once a viewer enters the space, with the visitor as an essential component of the piece.

Flouris/University of Thessaly via The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- One by one, Greek soldiers, bellies full from a breakfast of red wine and dry bread, armed and clad themselves in a bulky, buglike suit of armor as they prepared for battle.

(Sasha Arutyunova/The New York Times) SANTA FE, NM.- Teri Greeves was born into a world of beads. “I was brought home in a fully beaded cradleboard,” she said at her home studio in Santa Fe, New Mexico. “I had a fully beaded diaper bag. I had beaded moccasins before I could walk.” So it was only a matter of time before she started ... More 'Becoming Karl Lagerfeld' seeks to capture the man behind the glasses Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery storyboard collection heads to Julien's Auctions A photographer widens his gaze to loss, and it's a gain “Becoming Karl Lagerfeld,” which premiered Friday on Hulu, is set mostly in the 1970s, a decade that was key to Lagerfeld’s development as a fashion designer as well as his personal evolution. NEW YORK, NY.- Daniel Brühl had just started shooting the series “Becoming Karl Lagerfeld” in Paris last year, and he could feel the French crew’s eyes on him. The German actor, who was playing the title role, was all nerves.

More Samuel Fosso | The Menil Collection More News As Ukraine rebuilds its identity, folk songs are the new cool KYIV.- At first sight, it looked like a typical party in a nightclub. It was mid-March in central Kyiv and a hundred or so people were wiggling on the dance floor of V’YAVA, one of the Ukrainian capital’s most popular live music venues. The hall was dark, lit only by bright blue and red spotlights. Bartenders were busy pouring gin and tonics. But the lineup that night, in a concert hall that typically hosts pop artists and rappers, was unexpected: four Ukrainian folk singers, filling the room with their high-pitched voices and polyphonic choruses, accompanied by a DJ spinning techno beats — all to a cheering crowd. These days, Ukrainian folk music “is becoming something cool,” said Stepan Andrushchenko, one of the singers from Shchuka Ryba, the band onstage that night. “A very cool thing." More than two years into Russia’s full-scale ... More Mitsuko Uchida says what she thinks NEW YORK, NY.- Mitsuko Uchida is one of the world’s foremost pianists, renowned for her crystalline touch and her interpretations of Mozart and Schubert. She is in demand at leading concert halls and festivals, but is also a celebrated mentor to young performers. She is of such stature that she often travels with her own 1,064-pound Steinway Model D concert grand piano, as well as a dedicated technician for it. Periodically, for about two years, I had been working to land an interview with Uchida, 75, who was born in Japan and moved at age 12 to Austria, where her father became Japan’s ambassador. She remained there to study music when his diplomatic career took him elsewhere, and now lives in London. At this point (many of her recordings are considered standards), she has little need for publicity. But she agreed ... More James Fuentes opens 'Daisy Parris, Weird Rain' at the gallery's Los Angeles location LOS ANGELES, CA.- James Fuentes presents Daisy Parris, Weird Rain at the gallery’s Los Angeles location. Known for their intensively textured, graphically hued paintings, in this new body of work Parris embarks on a pursuit of the color yellow and all that it may hold. Pushing the color to its limit, Parris seeks yellows that conjure sensations at once eerie, electric, and enigmatic. These are shades we cannot hide from; garish and fiercely unapologetic hues that upend common associations to spark memories of unfiltered joy and loss. Parris approaches painting itself in a similar way, in which the static object that we encounter enacts and undergoes a process of continual renewal through transference—whereby emotion becomes material, and matter becomes emotionally charged. When beginning a painting, Parris will clean their ... More Exhibition centers on the universal themes of color, space, the individual and society THE HAGUE.- In True Colors, Kunstmuseum Den Haag presents a selection of works from the AkzoNobel Art Foundation’s contemporary collection, in dialogue with iconic works from the museum’s own collection.

More Exhibition marks the first full-scale presentation devoted to Paula Modersohn-Becker in the U.S. NEW YORK, NY.- Neue Galerie New York is presenting “Paula Modersohn-Becker: Ich bin Ich / I Am Me”. Paula Modersohn-Becker (1876-1907) is a major figure in the history of German Expressionism, yet despite her importance to art history, Modersohn-Becker’s work has never before been the subject of a museum retrospective in the United States. While her paintings and drawings have appeared in group shows at museums and galleries, and there is even a Paula Modersohn-Becker Museum in her hometown of Bremen, “Paula Modersohn-Becker: Ich bin Ich / I Am Me,” organized by Neue Galerie New York and the Art Institute of Chicago, marks the first full-scale presentation devoted to the artist in this country. In the course of her brief career – which was cut short at the young age of 31 because of a postpartum embolism – Modersohn- ... More Daylight to publish Relative Strangers by Teri Vershel - A celebration of the unseen similarities of the everyday NEW YORK, NY.- Humans are intersecting and inhabiting shared connections every day, in multiple ways, and most of the time not realizing it. Street photographer Teri Vershel notices these nuanced and thought-provoking similarities and celebrates them in her book, Relative Strangers, (Daylight Books, Summer, 2024). Vershel culled through her archive and utilized her skills curating and sequencing to create narratives and alliances and depth between her images by pairing them in new ways. This project culminated during the Covid lockdown, a time that promoted looking at projects in a different light. In her afterword for the book, Vershel provides insight into her process. "During the Covid lockdown of 2020, ...

More 'Kathrin Sonntag and Gabriele Münter: The Travelling Eye' opens at Marta Herford Museum of Art and Design HERFORD.- In the exhibition Kathrin Sonntag and Gabriele Münter—The Travelling Eye, Marta Herford is not only showing photographs by the Expressionist Gabriele Münter for the first time in Herford, the native city of her family, but also uniting the works of two women artists made more than a hundred years apart. This juxtaposition of photographs by the two artists not only calls into question the essence of photography as a medium but also stimulates thinking about when and why photographs are taken. Gabriele Münter (b. 1877 in Berlin, d. 1962 in Murnau), who is famous above all as a painter in the Blue Rider circle, received her first camera as a gift in 1899 while on a trip in the USA. During her two-year journey in America, she took around 400 photographs documenting her time there and meeting family members. In the large ...
