More Claes Oldenburg, Alphabet in Form of a Good Humor Bar, 1970 © Claes Oldenburg, courtesy Pace Gallery.

Bringing together sculptures and prints that exist in series created by the artist between the 1960s and mid 2000s, this lively survey will showcase the importance of multiplicity in Oldenburg’s practice, inviting visitors to immerse in the artist’s madcap world and uncover resonances and touchpoints to Japanese culture. Curated by Pace CEO Marc Glimcher and Maartje Oldenburg—daughter of Oldenburg and his wife and longtime collaborator Coosje van Bruggen, and head of the artists’ estates—the exhibition is organized as part of the gallery’s 65th anniversary year celebration. It will also be Pace’s first major presentation of Oldenburg’s work since the gallery announced its global representation of the Oldenburg estate, the van Bruggen estate, and the Oldenburg and van Bruggen estate, continuing its commitment to shar ... More Jane Dickson, From the Ferris Wheel, 2025. Oil stick on linen, 40 x 24 in., 101.60 x 60.96 cm. 40 5/8 x 24 7/8 x 2 in., 103.19 x 63.18 x 5.08 cm (framed). NEW YORK, NY.- The interrelation of desire—deferred or briefly fulfilled—and entertainment is the current that runs through Jane Dickson’s five decades of work. The artist made her earliest paintings of carnivals and theme parks in the 1980s, while living in Times Square—another place promising pleasure for the right price. She translated imagery from her photographs into nocturnal compositions in which the neon lights of ferris wheels and game booths pop against inky grounds. Still fascinated by the way spectacle can take us on a ride, Dickson revisited the subject matter in the first years of the twenty-first century. Featuring paintings made between 2004 and 2025, Wonder Wheel emphasizes how fairgrounds seduce not despite their artificiality but because of it. Dickson represents New York carnivals such as the Feast of San Gennaro and Coney Island’s amusement park from a multitude of perspectives, simulating the way ...

As exhibition highlight of the year, “For Children” presents works specifi- cally created for children and young adults from 1968 to the present and extends across various indoor and outdoor spaces of the building. It explores universal topics – such as humanity, society, politics, economics, ecology, technology, and the future – that we first encounter as children and that continue to resonate in adulthood. While the works primarily address children, these fundamental subjects invite visitors of all ages to engage in an intergenerational dialogue. The exhibition inhabits different spaces ...

RIO DE JANEIRO.- Nara Roesler Rio de Janeiro is presenting The Intimacy of Light, a solo exhibition by artist Karin Lambrecht, featuring a curatorial text by Fernanda Lopes. The show brings together 24 previously unseen works by the artist, including paintings and watercolors on paper, all part of her recent production created throughout 2024 and 2025. With a career that began in the 1980s, Lambrecht belongs to a generation of artists who explored new possibilities for painting, its supports, and materialities. In her practice, she engages with a wide range of pictorial materials, from those traditionally associated with painting, such as soft pastels, to more unusual elements like copper, charcoal, and the canvas itself, which she often cuts and sews. Karin Lambrecht has also expanded the boundaries of painting by producing installation-based and performative works. Lambrecht’s recent production reflects the transformations ... More Citizen Kane (RKO, 1941), "Charles Foster Kane's" Practical Riding "Rosebud" Sled. DALLAS, TX.- On July 16, the second day of Heritage Auctions’ blockbuster Entertainment auction sessions taking place July 15-18, the sled famously known as Rosebud, from Orson Welles’ Hollywood classic masterpiece Citizen Kane, sold for a remarkable $14.75 million, including the buyer’s premium. The iconic prop has belonged to Gremlins director Joe Dante since 1984. After Heritage’s 2024 sale of the Ruby Slippers from The Wizard of Oz for $32.5 million, this Rosebud is the second most-valuable piece of movie memorabilia ever sold. The previous auction records for an example of screen-used Rosebud — only a few versions were produced for the 1941 production — are $60,500 sold to producer-director Steven Spielberg in 1982, and $233,000 to an anonymous buyer in 1996. “I’ve had the honor of protecting this piece of cinematic history for decades,” says Dante. “To see Rosebud find a new home — and make history in the process — is both surreal an ...

The Garden of Earthly Delights brings together a group of contemporary artists who reflect not only on nature’s forms but also the moments between the real and imagined.

More The Latvian Pavilion announces first details of its presentation for the Biennale Arte 2026 VENICE.- The Latvian Pavilion at the 61st Venice Biennale presents Untamed Assembly: Backstage of Utopia, an exhibition dedicated to the radical legacy of the Untamed Fashion Assembly (UFA), a one-of-a-kind interdisciplinary event at the intersection of experimental fashion and visual art, held in Riga throughout the 1990s.

More Derek Eller Gallery presents André Ethier's new paintings: Anxious goblins and fantastical landscapes NEW YORK, NY.- Derek Eller Gallery is presenting a solo exhibition of recent paintings by Canadian artist André Ethier entitled Canned Heat. For his eighth solo exhibition at the Gallery, Ethier evokes a society of goblin men that exist in anxious movement apart from their implied idyllic homeland. Two fantastical landscapes provide a locale to which the goblins are seemingly indigenous. Ethier paints freely without preliminary sketches or a formal plan. Paintings are approached one at a time and are often completed in a single sitting; only in retrospect does a relationship between images occur. To that end, this series of paintings feels almost diaristic, as subliminal forces affecting the artist’s life guide the content. Ethier reflects on this group of work as related to the “inevitable collision of the grotesque and sublime.” The goblins inconclusively move to, from, and apart from their homeland, ...

More Nick Angelo's "Edifice" at Sebastian Gladstone: A dry acknowledgment of cultural commodification NEW YORK, NY.- Many ravers have a similar memory, a zeitgeist recollection of low-end pulsations traveling through space, concrete, and rock. Disorientating color lights, phase-shifting frequencies, and hallucinogens in the bloodstream are all familiar echoes. Yet, those memories are often accompanied by a persistent sense of aesthetic and even social fatigue. A gnawing sense that the scene was better before. Entering the gallery and exhibition Edifice by Los Angeles-based artist Nick Angelo, one confronts a series of large images whose materiality touches the viewer at the subliminal smell of plastic vinyl. The smell fades over time, as it does with machine-produced printing whether on paper, canvas, or PVC sheeting – complementary to the transient musk of polyvinyl chloride (“vinyl”) records. In Edifice, Angelo maps the relationships between libidinal cultural and subcultural ... More New group show "Second Body" invites reflection on permeable forms LOS ANGELES, CA.- David Kordansky Gallery presents Second Body, an exhibition of works by nearly thirty artists that explores the dissolving boundaries between all life on earth. On view from July 15 through August 16, 2025, in Los Angeles at 5130 W. Edgewood Pl., the exhibition considers the porous intersections of the individual body, the environment, and technology. Curated by Molly Everett, an artist liaison at the gallery, and inspired by Daisy Hildyard’s 2017 essay “The Second Body,” the exhibition invokes her concept of how every human is a singular being, made of flesh and bone, at once separate yet simultaneously diffuse and intimately joined; one of many “implicated in the whole world.” Considering this interconnected and pluralistic presence of the individual body and the increasing permeability of boundaries in the face of climate change, the featured ...
