Sloane, Garnet, 1983. Signed, titled, and dated on the verso. Beeswax on masonite, 48 x 66 inches. NEW YORK, NY.- Spanierman Modern announced the retrospective exhibition of Louise P. Sloane’s fifty-year (and counting!) career: Back to the Future: The Paintings of Louise P. Sloane Works from 1976-2022. The works in this exhibition, dating from 1976 to 2022, offer a holistic view of Sloane’s career and creative transitions. Evident throughout is a fixation on patterns, geometry, and language, with a keen interest in materials that had the ability to diffuse colors and produce a luminous surface texture. Early explorations (1975-1989) were ... More The Best Photos of the Day Uprising of the Sun by Julie Mehretu - Women’s Garden View.

(Juho Kuva/The New York Times) PALKANE, FINLAND.- About 150 years ago, Swedish researchers dug up dozens of human skulls and other remains from graveyards across Finland and took them to Sweden to study their racial characteristics as part of an effort that they said was to understand how the Nordic region had been populated.

More James Earl Jones, actor whose voice could menace or melt, dies at 93 Works from the Estate of Maria and Conrad Janis acquired by the National Gallery of Art Elephants arrive, so humans don't forget James Earl Jones in the play “The Great White Hope” at the Arena Stage in Washington, Dec. 7, 1967. (George Tames/The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- James Earl Jones, a stuttering farm child who became a voice of rolling thunder as one of America’s most versatile actors in a stage, film and television career that plumbed race relations, Shakespeare’s rhapsodic tragedies and the faceless menace of Darth Vader, died Monday at his home in Dutchess County, New York. He was 93. The office of his agent, Barry McPherson, confirmed the ... More Morris Hirshfield, Tailor-Made Girl, 1939. Oil on canvas, framed: 44 3/8 x 28 3/4 x 1 1/4 in. National Gallery of Art.

These works support our goal of expanding narratives of 20th- and 21st-century American art by identifying artistic traditions within the United States beyond those associated with canonical modernism. Included in the gift are three paintings ... More “The Great Elephant Migration” sculpture installation in The Meatpacking District in New York. (José A. Alvarado Jr./The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- More than a century ago, New York City’s Meatpacking District teemed with large animals, most of them bound for a bloody end. Now, herds of huge creatures are once again gathered on this downtown Manhattan neighborhood’s cobblestone streets, but these are taking part in a new and joyful journey. They are the life-size sculptures of “The Great Elephant Migration,” a public-art installation of a hundred ...

More Announcing Julie Mehretu as a featured artist at the Obama Presidential Center More News Coveted card collections and Roberto Clemente game-worn jersey slide into Heritage's Fall Sports Catalog Auction DALLAS, TX.- It has been only days since Heritage Sports called its shot with a record-shattering $62-million auction deemed (by an Australian newspaper, no less!) as “nothing less than historically extraordinary.” One might think that after hitting that shot heard ’round the world, this would be a moment to rest on laurels. Yet it’s anything but: Heritage’s October 4-6 Fall Sports Catalog Auction, now open for bidding, is remarkable in its own right — a nearly 3,500-lot event spanning 140 years, covering every sport and offering every kind of collectible imaginable, from coveted card collections to Hall of Famers’ photo-matched jerseys to Super Bowl championship jewelry. As Chris Ivy, Heritage’s Director of Sports, says: “Heritage ... More Patti Scialfa, Bruce Springsteen's wife and bandmate, reveals cancer diagnosis NEW YORK, NY.- Patti Scialfa, wife of rock star Bruce Springsteen and a longtime member of his E Street Band, revealed in a new documentary that she was diagnosed with a form of blood cancer in 2018, which has led to her curtailing her public appearances and band performances in the years since. Scialfa’s diagnosis of multiple myeloma was revealed in “Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band,” a behind-the-scenes documentary about the New Jersey-born artist and the famed circle of musicians around him. The film premiered over the weekend at the Toronto Film Festival. “This affects my immune system, so I have to be careful what I choose to do and where I choose to go,” Scialfa said of her diagnosis in the film, according to Variety. Scialfa, 71, has been an E Street Band institution since the 1980s, ... More Isaiah Collier funnels a 'very radical time' into a vivid new album NEW YORK, NY.- Before Isaiah Collier went into the studio to record his new album, the saxophonist and composer sent his fellow musicians a playlist of sorts. Instead of songs, it contained news clips chronicling racially motivated violence targeting Black men and women — including the 2020 murder of Ahmaud Arbery and the 2023 shooting of the Kansas City, Missouri, teenager Ralph Yarl — as well as the protests that followed. Collier wanted the LP to be an “observation log” of the past four years, and he was reminding the members of his band, the Chosen Few, exactly where the music had sprung from. “It’s one thing to hear people who write their inspirations,” Collier, 26, explained on a recent video call from his hometown, Chicago. “It’s another thing for you to be in real time, and knowing that this is really coming from an actual ... More Working on a Sri Lankan-Australian epic, he learned his family's past NEW YORK, NY.- Playwright S. Shakthidharan has lived in Australia since he was a toddler, but when he speaks of his homeland, he means Sri Lanka. That’s where he was born, where he spent his first birthday, where his ancestors were rooted. Then in 1983, the South Asian nation descended into what would become a 26-year civil war. His family, part of the country’s Tamil minority, had the means to flee to safety. So they did, going to India, Singapore and finally Australia, in 1984. “I do think of Sri Lanka as my homeland, but I think of Australia as my home,” he said the other day, his accent redolent of Sydney, where he grew up. “I think I carry the two simultaneously. Sri Lanka lives somewhere in my chest. Always. Wherever I am.” He was saying this in New York, after a rehearsal of his epic play, “Counting and Cracking,” in which the ... More Gagosian to exhibit new paintings by Anna Weyant in artist's London debut LONDON.- Gagosian announced Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolves?, Anna Weyant’s first exhibition in London, opening at the gallery at Davies Street on October 8, 2024. In her new paintings, Weyant infuses elements of autobiography with the symbolic wit, portentous mood, and refined technique that distinguished Baby, It Ain’t Over Till It’s Over, her 2022 Gagosian debut in New York, and The Guitar Man, her 2023 debut in Paris. Weyant’s precisely rendered figure paintings and portraits undercut their subjects’ attempts at composure with gestures of tragicomic awkwardness, while her crystalline still-life compositions lend everyday objects a similarly unsettling and oneiric tinge, their muted palette contributing a reflective ambience. The six new paintings that comprise Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolves? retain this mood in atmospheric scenarios ... More Ayyam Gallery will open a retrospective exhibition with the works of Syrian artist Leila Nseir DUBAI.- Ayyam Gallery will present a retrospective exhibition with the works of Syrian artist, Leila Nseir. This retrospective, an homage to Leila following her passing, honors Leila’s legacy and celebrates her contributions to art and feminism. We extend our deepest gratitude to The Samawi Collection and the Barjeel Foundation for their generous support in loaning their impactful pieces. We would also like to thank Ahmad Kasha, and every contributor and lender who helped put this exhibition together. Historically, women have been both subjects and creators of art, from The Venus of Willendorf to Nefertiti to Tamara De Lempicka and beyond. Reverence for female physicality alongside admiration of qualities traditionally associated with women—courage, victory, and grace—profoundly broadened and challenged prevailing narratives and norms. ... More John Mulaney to star in a Broadway comedy about love and marriage NEW YORK, NY.- John Mulaney is coming back to Broadway. The comedian will star in a new play, “All In: Comedy About Love,” staged as vignettes about relationships, marriage and heartbreak and written by humorist Simon Rich, Mulaney’s former “Saturday Night Live” collaborator. The production, set to feature a rotating group of actors, will be directed by Alex Timbers, who helmed Mulaney’s most recent Netflix special, “Baby J,” as well as his Broadway debut, the 2016 comedy “Oh, Hello on Broadway.” “It’s a weird fantasy camp of things I always wanted to do with my very good friends,” Mulaney said in a video interview. The comedian, who has two Emmy Awards for his stand-up specials “Kid Gorgeous” and “Baby J,” will lead an ensemble cast of four actors portraying pirates, the Elephant Man, dogs looking for love and other characters: ... More Patricia Fleming Gallery announce Blanco; a solo exhibition by Jo McGonigal GLASGOW.- Manchester-based artist Jo McGonigal presents Blanco, a solo exhibition of new work developed during a summer residency in the gallery. Taking its title from white marble dust used in the traditional making of gesso (the foundation or ‘ground’ for painting), McGonigal brings painting into dialogue with landscape through her attention to deep material histories. Here, gesso is painted directly onto the walls of the gallery before introducing hand-drawn lines in coloured chalk, geometric structures, soft ground pigment, textile and found elements into formal abstract compositions. Materials and processes – human, mineral, animal are drawn together forming intimate connections between divergent materials on the verge of collapsing, crumbling, or breaking apart, their fragility undermined by the materials used. Here, landscape is experienced as a physical and spatial interaction that activates the body as much as the eye, whilst drawing on historical landscape ... More Gardiner Museum receives funding from the Government of Canada toward major transformation project TORONTO.- The Gardiner Museum announced the support of the Government of Canada for its largest capital project in 20 years—a full-scale transformation of the Museum’s ground floor based on the principles of access, connectivity, and Indigeneity. The Government of Canada’s contribution of $705,260, issued through the Department of Canadian Heritage’s Canada Cultural Spaces Fund, supports the reimagining of the Gardiner’s permanent collection galleries, including the addition of a gallery of Indigenous ceramics, as well as the establishment of a Community Learning Centre, a new programming and events space that will bring better visibility to the Museum’s education initiatives. An open hub for looking, learning, and connecting, the Community Learning Centre will host public programs and offer new display opportunities ... More BLUM will open Aaron Garber-Maikovska's third solo exhibition with the gallery LOS ANGELES, CA.- BLUM will present Los Angeles-based artist Aaron Garber-Maikovska’s third solo exhibition with the gallery. Taking the grids and unlikely landmarks of the late capitalist suburban landscape as his sources of inspiration, Garber-Maikovska paints abstract marks of oil on fluted polypropylene or canvas that recall the artist’s ongoing performance practice. These motion-based works that Garber-Maikovska stages and subsequently draws upon for his paintings behave as if the semiotics of an avant-garde visual language met the controlled aleatory inherent to the compositions of John Cage. Garber-Maikovska enacts somatically channeled movements within, and attuned to, spaces of hyper-consumption such as the parking lot of a Target. Similarly, the uniquely manufactured plastic apparatuses by which Garber-Maikovska ...
