There’s something slippery about Alicja Kwade’s work. It’s a characteristic that defines her multifaceted practice, and encapsulates a hungry curiosity for the world around her and the possibility that resides within and beyond its systems.Kwade is currently presenting a new exhibition at Pace Gallery, marking her first solo show with the New York gallery since joining in 2023. The presentation expands on the artist’s long-standing fascination with material, form and perception, challenging viewers to consider: What is time, really? What exactly does it encapsulate, and what slips through it?At the heart of Telos Tales are three towering sculptures — rigid, geometric steel frames that dissolve into molten, tree-like limbs of bronze. Self-contained yet interwoven at once, each piece is titl...

Curators William Croghan, Benno Tubbesing and Matthieu Von Matt of American Art Projects mark their debut in Europe with America Unframed, a bold group exhibition in Berlin. On view through June 13, the show brings together a new generation of U.S.-based artists whose works reflect the evolving visual language of American culture.Rather than focusing on medium or style, the exhibition centers on a cultural thread that binds the featured artists: a shared vocabulary shaped by Pop Art, American Realism, commercial sign painting, Hollywood, and the ever-expanding influence of the Internet. America Unframed is the first in a planned series of transatlantic shows intended to foster deeper dialogue between the American and Berlin art scenes. “This is not a manifesto,” the organizers note, “but a...

The Miami Art Society presented Tropical Brainstorm, a solo exhibition by Gustavo Oviedo at The Goodtime Hotel a Tribute Portfolio Hotel by Marriott Bonvoy. The show featured over 20 new works spanning paintings, ceramics and collages, alongside the debut of Oviedo’s latest art book of the same name.Rooted in his experiences as a diver and underwater videographer, Tropical Brainstorm captured the tension between natural ecosystems and human debris. Oviedo drew from biomorphic forms and marine life observed during deep-sea expeditions, using recurring visual motifs, what he called "form families," to mirror nature’s organized chaos.At the core of the exhibition were his “Brainstorms,” cloud-and-lightning forms that served as visual meditations on improvisation, evolution, and interconnected...

In a cultural moment marked by censorship and retrenchment, Chicago’s Wrightwood 659 presents a bold counternarrative: The First Homosexuals: The Birth of a New Identity, 1869–1939.

Katz and eight years in the making, the show rewinds to 1869, the year the term "homosexual" first entered public discourse.

Iván Argote made waves in New York last fall when his 16-foot pigeon made a home for itself on the High Line in Downtown Manhattan. Now, the Colombian artist and filmmaker is back, just in time for Frieze Week, with a new special solo exhibition at Perrotin.Spanning nearly two decades of practice, Breathings arrives on the heels of three major international projects: Descanso, a central outdoor installation at the 2024 Venice Biennale; Dinosaur, his High Line Plinth commission (2024–2026); and Air de Jeu, part of the Prix Marcel Duchamp exhibition at the Centre Pompidou (2022–2023).

Houston-based artist Gao Hang makes a powerful homecoming with Screen Life Drawing, his first solo show in China, at Tang Contemporary Art’s Beijing Headquarters.At first glance, his neon figures and low-poly forms might recall the clunky charm of ’90s video game graphics, yet beneath the titular punchlines, like Your Boss and Your Boss’ Boss and Two Good Looking Asians, are powerful observations of a "carnival of virtual identity," as the gallery describes; a reality where “self-improvement” takes the shape of KPI competitions and existential meaning has been hollowed out.Intentionally awkward and, at times, visually dissonant, in Screen Life Drawing sketching gets an algorithmic treatment: technical flaws become aesthetic emblems and an in-person reality crumbles at the hands of digital ...

In a nod to Japonisme – the 19th-century Western fascination with Japanese art – Murakami also re-envisions paintings by European Impressionists and Post-Impressionists who were inspired by the movement through his own eyes, closing the loop on cultural exchange while reclaiming the visual language of pictorial flatness, asymmetrical splendor and blushing colors.The showcase expands o...
