A different kind of museum
Walk into a Museum of Illusions or a Museum of Ice Cream and the experience feels closer to an adult playground than to the kind of museum most people grew up visiting. Visitors move through optical illusions, mirrors, oversized objects and brightly colored installations, looking for the right position, the right gesture or the right moment to take a video. The spaces are made for participation, and their images are made to travel. The word ‘museum’ gives these places an institutional identity, while the experience itself is largely built around play, social interaction and the pleasure of being photographed inside an unusual environment.
There is nothing necessarily wrong...

I wake up with the sparrows at 6am, shower and get dressed at maximum speed, check a few emails, gulp a quick espresso, and by 7:15am, I’m ready to drive my son René to kindergarten.As I turn on the car, ready to conquer the day, I hear him sigh from his booster seat in the back and ask, “What’s the point of all this?”The previous morning we’d discussed death. I did a poor job explaining why his grandpa (my father) is no longer around and where he might be right now. At the ISCP (International Studio & Curatorial Program) in Brooklyn, where we have a lovely event for Hyperallergic members, staff greets us with drinks and fortune cookies. I eat four of those cookies because I’m not pleased with...

Wood and Glass Rework Kolonaki Apartment into Workspace
Greek practice Local Local converts a ground-floor apartment in Athens’ Kolonaki neighborhood into its first permanent studio, using light-touch interventions that retain the apartment’s existing architectural character.
The leased space required non-structural changes, so the practice repaired and lightened the original wooden floors, painted the walls white, restored the rippled-glass doors in a darker tone, and retained the arched entrance. The L-shaped plan is organized around a main workspace and a meeting room, which occupies a former bedroom.
Furniture combines existing pieces with custom designs. A solid-cypress table by architect...

architecture for looking
For Loewe’s Spring Summer 2027 show, the runway rises off the usual single plane. Inside a temporary white volume in the courtyard of Paris’ Château de Vincennes, Casper Mueller Kneer Architects has built a circular, two-story arena where guests look across, down, and through the space at one another. Models move along a runway that snakes between angular benches at ground level, while another band of viewers occupies the balcony above. Fashion becomes something seen from several heights at once.
The architecture borrows its basic geometry from places where an audience traditionally surrounds an event. The design team looked at the Anatomical Theatre in Padua and London’s...

RADIANCE Translates Fire Into Light at Walt Disney Concert Hall
RADIANCE is a light sculpture installation by Grimanesa Amorós, commissioned by the Los Angeles Philharmonic and presented at Walt Disney Concert Hall across three consecutive performances. Conceived to accompany Alexander Scriabin’s Prometheus: The Poem of Fire, Op. 60 (1910), the work takes fire as its subject, resolving into the form of a pulsing spark suspended above the orchestra.
The installation draws on two cultural references: Prometheus, who gave fire to humanity, and Viracocha, the Incan creator deity. Together, they frame light as a carrier of knowledge and a medium of transformation. Amorós, a Peruvian-born American artist,...

Nel panorama delle grandi manifestazioni culturali dedicate all’architettura e al progetto, la Biennale dello Stretto 2026 si conferma uno degli osservatori più acuti e fertili sulle dinamiche territoriali contemporanee, trovando nella Sezione Design curata da Francesco Alati un momento di altissima riflessione critica e di confronto visivo. Ospitato fino al 13 dicembre 2026 negli spazi suggestivi e carichi di storia del Forte Batteria Siacci di Campo Calabro, il progetto “NON IN SENSO STRETTO – Per una topologia del design tra Calabria e Sicilia” – promosso congiuntamente da ADI Calabria e ADI Sicilia con il coordinamento generale di Giusi Buono – si propone di restituire una lettura profonda e...
games as a way of seeing
‘I would prefer not to be in this film,‘ Carsten Höller says. Too late. Over the course of a year and a half, the artist is followed from Venice to London, Arles and the Fondation Beyeler near Basel, joined along the way by Hans Ulrich Obrist, Jürgen Teller, Maja Hoffmann, India Mahdavi, Bas Smets and an unusually cumbersome traveling companion: the Polaroid 20×24, the world’s largest instant camera.
The resulting 20-minute documentary, released by the Polaroid Foundation as The Carsten Höller Episode of The 20×24 Project. The film offers a loose and funny glimpse into the artist’s world through the games collected in his Book of Games. People pull hair, walk, pose...

New York gallery Luhring Augustine is closing its TriBeCa branch, Artnet News reports.

Translation never arrives in Maia Ruth Lee’s solo exhibition at Tina Kim Gallery, Double Vision. Instead, it is a condition to be embodied and probed. Much like her parents — Bible translators who moved to Nepal and developed a written alphabet for the oral Sherpa language — Lee unfolds the act of translation in her new show.Grid-like patterning inspired by the luggage at Kathmandu airport, illegible glyphs, and images from the family archive act as a recurring visual language across canvas, latex, and steel. The works draw on motifs of migration, but the motifs themselves migrate across the gallery, mutating as they take on new forms. Stacking, for instance, evokes playfulness in the modular canvases of...

Individual artists can now receive up to $10,000 in city-funded grants, double the amount of previous appropriations, Mayor Zohran Mamdani and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs (DCLA) announced today, October 2. DCLA annually disperses these grants across the city to local partners, which then administer funds to cultural organizations, arts nonprofits, and artists. The previous baseline of $5,000 has remained in place for nearly 20 years, according to the Mayor’s Office. “Artists are forced to make hard choices when it comes to living in this city and getting paid,” Mamdani said in an Instagram announcement where he paints at an easel across from DCLA Commissioner Diya Vij. “There’s...
The Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, England has partnered with the Samdani Art Foundation, the organization behind the Dhaka Art Summit, on a program aimed at bringing attention to Bangladeshi art.

After months of collective bargaining and looming strikes, unionized staff at the Brooklyn Museum and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum have ratified their second contracts with their respective institutions, while the American Folk Art Museum (AFAM) union is celebrating the ratification of its first contract with the museum. These developments come after the Whitney Museum of American Art, Brooklyn Museum, and AFAM unions jointly voted to authorize strike action last month if a tentative agreement could not be reached, falling in line with the Guggenheim union, which had voted in favor of a strike at the end of June.However, unionized Whitney staff have set a strike deadline of Monday, October 5, ahead of the...
Unionized staff at four of New York’s prominent cultural institutions—the Brooklyn Museum, Guggenheim Museum, the Jewish Museum, and the American Folk Art Museum, and (AFAM)—have ratified new contracts, UAW Local 2110 announced today. The Brooklyn Museum and AFAM finalized four-year contracts this week, while the Guggenheim and Jewish Museum unions ratified their agreements in September. ARTnews has contacted the museums for comment. The Brooklyn Museum’s second contract guarantees annual raises and increases the minimum salaries for full-time positions to between $63,585 and $129,854, depending on position level. The increases take effect retroactively to July 1, and these minimums will rise another...
The Swiss government will provide $2.4 million in funding for research into the provenance of objects in its museums and collections, the Swiss Federal Office of Culture announced earlier this week. Funding for 26 projects from 2027–2028 was awarded following a public call for proposals. A core focus will be on items acquired by Swiss institutions in colonial, archaeological, and Nazi-era contexts. The winning projects range from initiatives involving several museums to collaborations with communities of origin to the individual cataloging of archives and databases. Participants include major museums as well as collections with limited experience in provenance research. The aim is to help a variety of...
LOS ANGELES — For over four decades, the Tom of Finland Foundation has been a vital hub for queer artists. Now, an acrimonious rift between the foundation’s board and its co-founder leaves its future uncertain.The nonprofit foundation was established in 1984 to preserve the art and legacy of Tom of Finland (born Touko Laaksonen, 1920–1991), whose erotic depictions of hypermasculine men — sailors, lumberjacks, and leather-clad bikers — have become iconic images of queer culture. Over the years, its scope grew beyond Tom’s work. The foundation began supporting contemporary artists through exhibitions and acquisitions, and in 2011, it started an artist residency program based out of its headquarters,...
Renowned artist residency program Yaddo in Saratoga Springs, New York, has appointed Cyra Levenson as its new president. Levenson arrives to the organization from the Solomon R.

September has been a busy month for the British Museum with the opening of the sold out Bayeux Tapestry exhibition, which has attracted swarms of crowds, as well as complaints from visitors and lawsuits, too. Now, the museum now trying to rectify those missteps. On Wednesday, the museum turned away visitors halfway through the day to get ready for a gala dinner it was hosting with its long-term corporate sponsor Samsung to celebrate the “Korea” exhibition that opened on Thursday. The dinner was attended by Chancellor John Healey and liberal democrat leader Sir Ed Davey, while the pre-dinner reception was attended by Princess Anne, according to The Telegraph. “Unfortunately, delays earlier in the day...
Gaia Alari’s works are defined by a distinct, effervescent visual language. Made from thousands of handmade drawings on paper, the artist’s elaborate animations put on strikingly tactile performances as fleeting marks of oil pastel and charcoal dance across the screen. Meandering botanical forms, gestural bodies, and sweeping birds converge into fluid loops that create a rhythm reminiscent of a stream of consciousness. Whether Alari is collaborating with a brand, exploring personal interests, or creating static illustrations, it’s clear that each piece tells a distinct story. Watch more from the artist on Vimeo and keep up with her explorations on Instagram. Do stories and artists like this matter to...
Viennese Actionist artist Ingrid Wiener died at the age of 83, just shy of her 84th birthday, Charim Gallery announced in an Instagram post. The gallery did not state a cause of death. For decades, Wiener shaped the Austrian art scene with her combined textile, photography, painting, and collage works, as well as through notable collaborations with the likes of Valie Export and Dieter Roth. Wiener’s tapestries integrate objects and fragments of her everyday life, among them, cutting boards, old shopping lists, newspapers, cables, and even cucumbers. Handwritten texts are often interwoven into visual compositions, further embedding her emotions, thoughts, and personal observations directly into the fabric....
An expansive public plaza surrounding Los Angeles’s recently opened Lucas Museum of Narrative Art will be permanently fenced off, reports the Los Angeles Times. The plaza around the museum, founded by filmmaker George Lucas and his wife Mellody Hobson, “was always meant to be a generous civic space,” the Times notes, adding that architect Ma Yansong called it “gateway” between the museum and the city. This past weekend, the first days the museum was open to the public, fences lined with plastic greenery “blocked entry to the plaza from both sides,” per the Times. It called the fences “a shockingly makeshift solution for a museum that cost over $1 billion,” while also noting that they will be...
Wooden post SAXONY-ANHALT, GERMANY—According to a statement released by the State Office for Heritage Management and Archaeology (LDA) Saxony-Anhalt, pieces of worked wood dated to some 10,500 years ago have been recovered from sediments in central Germany’s Lake Arendsee. “The finds shed a completely new light on the Mesolithic period, for which traces of buildings in central Germany have so far only been known in the form of soil discolorations,” said state archaeologist Harald Meller. The pieces of wood include a five-foot post bearing felling marks, and split boards measuring up to about four feet long. It is not yet known if the wood was used to build huts or an unknown structure. “If permanent...
Kavi Gupta, a Chicago art dealer, has been served a temporary restraining order. The dealer and his art gallery have been barred by a judge in New York from selling or marketing a collection of art at the center of a $2 million dispute. In May of 2025, a company called Longcraft LLC, gave Kavi […]
SIOUX CITY, IOWA—Siouxland Public Media reports that traces of a worker camp have been uncovered at the Sioux City Railroad Museum by a team led by Michael Betsinger of the University of Iowa Office of the State Archaeologist. Workers lived on site to build the Milwaukee Railroad Shops Terminal from 1916 to 1918. The repair shop terminal served the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad. More than 500 people were employed at the repair shop and its roundhouse of 30 stalls during World War II. But when the railroad began to use diesel engines in the 1950s, the repair shop became obsolete. The Siouxland Historical Railroad Association acquired the property in 1995 and reopened it as a museum. To...
Early medieval sculpture fragments from Lios Mòr LISMORE, SCOTLAND—The Independent reports that traces of an early Christian monastery have been found on the small Scottish island of Lios Mòr, or Lismore, by a team of archaeologists and community volunteers. Local tradition, evidence from the place name, and historical records indicated that a monastery had been built on the island in the sixth century A.D. by Saint Mo Luóc. It was not clear, however, if a later cathedral had been constructed on the site of the early monastery, or if it was located somewhere else, said Clare Ellis of Argyll Archaeology. The researchers uncovered burials, craft workshops, early buildings, and signs of precious metal...
How might we visualize the inextricable web of space, time, and matter, enormous concepts that are so systemic they can almost become abstract? Rendering these connections in a tangible, accessible, and even participatory manner continues to ground Tomás Saraceno’s multidisciplinary practice. Born in Argentina and based in Berlin, the artist plays with scale and spectacle to draw our attention to the life-giving ecosystems in which we’re all bound, merging art, architecture, and science into alluring works. At Haus der Kunst, Saraceno’s ecological and collaborative projects take center stage for a sweeping presentation titled Ancestral Futures. Spanning more than two decades, the solo exhibition emerges...
The year’s best roundup of the funniest animal photos is back with its list of 2026 finalists, taking on a kind of blooper reel-like quality with some of the goofiest happenstances and candid moments photographers captured. Nikon Comedy Wildlife Awards 2026 celebrates the wild, wonderful, and wily in habitats around the world. From Tanner Mansell’s “Spicy Orangutan” snapped in Borneo to a damselfly appearing to wave at British photographer Lee Frost through a window in a nibbled leaf, this year’s top contenders are not only silly, but immanently relatable, illustrating how for all of our differences, we all share this incredible planet. Tanner Mansell, “Spicy Orangutan” At more than 10,000...

Esiste un modo di intendere l’ospitalità artistica che si esaurisce nella logistica: uno studio, un letto, qualche settimana di tempo sottratto alla routine quotidiana. Ed esiste un altro modo, meno frequente e più impegnativo, in cui l’accoglienza diventa essa stessa un dispositivo critico, capace di orientare non soltanto le condizioni materiali del lavoro artistico, ma il senso stesso di ciò che una residenza può produrre. È a questo secondo modello che sembra guardare “Ripensare l’Aia”, il programma pubblico che accompagna il primo ciclo di Residenze LIEVITO, promosso da La CAP Re|Hub in collaborazione con la galleria IPERCUBO negli spazi del Podere La Capacciola, in Valdichiana Senese.

By Kristine Schomaker I learned yesterday that my friend Scott Froschauer died suddenly. I've known him for almost ten years, and I'm still trying to find a place to put this. Scott was a Shoebox artist, one of the early ones. We worked together on several projects, but the one I keep coming back to is an art salon we put together on consent, negotiation, and the male gaze, how the male posture of viewing women frames any sign of femininity as an invitation, and what it would mean to actually...
Gunpowder weapon NAJU, SOUTH KOREA—A weapon discovered in 2023 on Mount Geumseong in southwestern South Korea has been identified by researchers from the Naju National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage as a Hwangja Hwatong, a handheld gunpowder weapon that fired arrows or pellets, ZME Science reports. The 600-year-old bronze weapon measures about nine inches long and weighs about two pounds. Engravings on the handle record the weapon’s name, weight, manufacturing supervisor, craftsman, and an incomplete date. When researchers compared the inscription with historic records of firearm production, they determined that this weapon was made in either 1377 or 1437. “It comes from a crucial transitional...
CHALCATZINGO, MEXICO—Phys.org reports that Christophe Helmke of the University of Copenhagen and his colleagues mapped a shallow cave on a cliff at the site of Chalcatzingo in south-central Mexico, where three glyphs were found in the 1980s. The red painted glyphs are thought to have been left by people from Teotihuacan who established settlements and carried out rituals in the region. The researchers also took detailed photographs of the glyphs and used digital photo enhancement software to get a better look at the paintings. Helmke said that one image features a stylized mountain flanked by speech scrolls, and may refer to a place name that means Singing Mountain. The same glyph appears in Teotihuacan, he...

Avant-garde style, technology, and performance converge in a fantastical, joyous competition every year in New Zealand. World of WearableArt is a vibrant multimedia competition established in 1987, which continues to invite entrants from around the world to sew and sculpt their most ambitious garments. Whimsical and technically impressive, many of the works call upon cultural traditions, while others tap into nature, futurism, and the chimerical. This year’s show is titled GLO!, with Kayla Christensen of New Zealand taking the top prize for her work “Sacred Nightfall,” a spectacularly noble, draped floral garment that nods to Indigenous ceremonial cloaks. Additional standouts include the enigmatic...
Against a patchwork wall of hammered copper, a black veil appears to billow in mesmerizing motion. The fabric-like layer writhes and twists against the glimmering backdrop, revealing its diaphanous texture as it unfolds to translucence. Like a curtain flapping in an open window, the digital projection floats across the metallic surface of one of teamLab’s latest works. Part of teamLab: Everything Exists in Infinite Continuity at the Smart Museum of Art, “Sea of Darkness, Memory Shining from the Depths” is one of several new commissions from the international art collective. Founded by Toshiyuki Inoko in 2001, teamLab consists of hundreds of artists, animators, musicians, mathematicians, developers,...
L’immagine, per secoli esito di una pennellata e poi di uno scatto o di un montaggio, è diventata in pochi anni il prodotto di modelli generativi che materializzano volti, paesaggi e catastrofi plausibili in vertiginosa proliferazione a partire da asettiche indicazioni testuali. Nel frattempo, le piattaforme social hanno trasformato ogni schermo in un’arena in cui la velocità di circolazione pesa più di qualsiasi verifica.

Su una parete larga sedici metri, tre grandi opere fotografiche entrano in dialogo: PlantAge I, V e XII. In questi lavori, presentati a NordArt a Büdelsdorf in Germania, l’artista e filmmaker berlinese Christian A. Lang condensa sette anni di osservazione di una serra abbandonata in un’esplorazione multistratificata del tempo, della trasformazione, della memoria e della percezione. Tra il 2018 e il 2025, Lang è tornato ripetutamente in un luogo in origine concepito per il massimo controllo: luce, temperatura, umidità e crescita erano regolate e sottoposte a un ordine definito con rigore. Ma, dopo che la serra è stata abbandonata, questo equilibrio artificiale ha iniziato gradualmente a dissolversi....
