The Book of Exodus is unequivocal on the matter. During Moses’s 40-day-and-40-night sojourn atop Mount Sinai, wherein the prophet would receive the Ten Commandments from the Lord, the anxious Hebrews abandoned in the desert melted down their gold and fashioned a calf to whom they’d offer hosannas. Dancing about the idol, burning incense and offerings, the multitude praised not God, but rather this crude, wanton, and ostentatious object of their own crafting. Dead in eye and dumb of ear, the Golden Calf diverted the Hebrews from genuine worship; a deadening of the ethical imperative that had guided their liberation from bondage in Egypt. Castigating their stiff-necked impudence, God tells Moses in Exodus...
W hen we connect over Zoom, Hrafnhildur Arnardóttir, aka Shoplifter, is in Bentonville, Arkansas preparing to unveil Xanadu, a large-scale, outdoor installation at Format Festival. “It’s going to be like an alien forest that people at the festival roam around in and space out,” says Arnardóttir of the installation, consisting of ten poles ranging in […]

In Memoriam is published every Wednesday afternoon and honors those we recently lost in the art world.Bruno Bischofberger (1940–2026)Swiss art historian, collector, and dealerBeginning in the 1960s, he established art galleries in Zurich and St. Moritz in Switzerland. He brought American Pop Artists to Swiss audiences, including Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg, and more. In the 1970s and '80s, he promoted Neo-Expressionist artists such as Julian Schnabel and George Condo. "Bischofberger was far more than just an art dealer; he was a brilliant artist in his own right, a visionary, a pioneer, a teacher and a patron of the arts," a statement released by his gallery read. "Without him, the...
As the global art market shifts from rapid expansion toward consolidation, ART BUSAN 2026 positions itself as a fair focused not only on visibility and high-value sales, but on building a more sustainable collecting ecosystem. Celebrating its 15th anniversary, the fair proposes a new market model for Korea — one rooted in long-term engagement, cross-disciplinary collecting, and structural stability rather than speculative momentum.Held at BEXCO from May 21 to 24, ART BUSAN 2026 brings together over 110 galleries from 18 countries. The fair’s most notable development lies in its restructuring of the traditional fair format through newly integrated segments such as DEFINE and LIGHTHAUS.Installation view of...
Layered Timber installation Reinterprets the Japanese Engawa
Strata Engawa by Superficium Studio reinterprets the traditional Japanese engawa as a digitally fabricated timber installation designed for sitting, gathering, play, and informal public occupation. Developed for the inaugural Digi Fab Award 2025 organized by KOKUYO × VUILD, the project explores the relationship between architecture, furniture, and adaptable public space through layered plywood construction and computational fabrication methods.
The installation takes its name from the engawa, the transitional space positioned between interior domestic environments and the surrounding garden in traditional Japanese architecture. Rather than...

a column-free museum at the edge of haikou
The Hainan Science Museum by MAD has opened in Haikou, China, where its silver, spiraling volume rises beside Wuyuan River National Wetland Park. With architecture led by Ma Yansong, the museum has already welcomed more than 350,000 visitors during its soft opening, with peak days drawing more than 5,800 people.
From above, the building reads as a compressed coil set between highway, city, and wetland. Its rounded shell-like facade appears to hover above the ground, with broad bands of metal catching the pale sky and softening the scale of the institution. The form gives the Hainan Science Museum a sense of movement before visitors step inside, as if the...

What do you get when you combine an obsessive urge to create, sleep deprivation, climate change anxiety, and penchant for enchanted nature realms? Amy Casey shows us firsthand, through her infinitely detailed paintings of manmade structures, either clashing or peacefully coexisting with natural environments. In these pieces we might find repetitions of fungi, leaves, and […]

Hiding serves abuse. Nowhere is this vile gesture more embodied than in official portraits of Israeli soldiers with their backs to the viewer. Troops turn their backs on the camera as they have on human rights, exhibiting a cover-up in the most literal sense of the word. Hiding so as to avoid identification and prosecution for war crimes in the occupied Palestinian territories, these soldiers weaponize the same algorithmic surveillance and facial recognition software they utilize to harass others; concealing the abuser while unveiling the abused.Technologies such as these are now operating outside the domain of militaries and governments, having migrated into the most prosaic moments. Perverts worldwide...
Last week, the Venice Biennale announced that Iran had dropped out of the exhibition. Now, it appears, that report was incorrect. On Tuesday, Aydin Mahdizadeh Tehrani, the director-general of visual arts at the Iranian ministry of culture and Islamic guidance told the Iran Students News Agency that it still plans to participate. “Iran never withdrew from participating in the Venice Biennale,” Tehrani said, as translated by Google Translate. “Incidentally, we had the initial agreement to participate in Venice and we are still in consultation. We have submitted a plan to participate in the Biennale as an exhibition, and we will probably receive a receive a response in the next few days.” In an extensive...
selgascano’s sky-k rises as two bright coastal chimneys
Sky-K by Selgascano rises in Durrës, Albania, as a pair of slender residential towers set just behind Rruga Taulantia, the seaside street recently shaped into a linear park along the Adriatic coast. The project sits in a dense coastal fabric, where apartment blocks, palm-lined promenades, port infrastructure, and beach life press closely together. From the water, the building appears almost suddenly above the skyline, its red and yellow volumes catching the sun from behind the existing city front.
The site is set back from the waterfront, which gives the tower a strange double presence. It belongs to a small hidden lot at ground level, yet its...

The Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden used its 50th anniversary year to dramatically expand its collection, announcing 314 new acquisitions in 2025 that reflect a broader push into photography, mixed-media work, and artists shaping contemporary American visual culture. The acquisitions range from large-scale mixed-media works by Lorna Simpson, Sarah Sze, and Mickalene Thomas to documentary photography by Danny Lyon and Graciela Iturbide, as well as major gifts tied to the museum’s current exhibitions, including works by Adam Pendleton and Mark Bradford. “There has been a deliberate effort over the last few years to deepen certain areas of the Hirshhorn collection,...

Debbie Lawson is known for her large-scale sculptures of life-size animals cloaked in ornamental carpets. Starting with an armature of wire mesh, masking tape, and Jesmonite resin, she meticulously cuts and tucks Persian carpet around every limb, building a surface that looks unbroken. As if the animals have materialized from within the textiles and are temporarily frozen in a stage of metamorphosis, we encounter them on the verge of making a move. In the artist’s solo exhibition, In a Cowslip’s Bell I Lie at Sargent’s Daughters, she provokes “questions about the relationships between decoration and nature, craft and camouflage,” the gallery says. The title is a line from Shakespeare’s The Tempest,...
Good Morning! Iran denies ever withdrawing from the Venice Biennale, and the Somalia Pavilion sparks controversy. A new report led by France‘s parliament has revealed wide-ranging flaws in the country’s museum security management. US Interior Department staff are concerned that Trump‘s Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool repairs are behind schedule and of poor quality. The Headlines VEXED IN VENICE. News from this year’s politically mired Venice Biennale keeps coming. For starters, the Art Newspaper reports that Iran is still negotiating its participation in the Biennale. The general director of visual arts at Iran’s Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance—Mahdizadeh Tehrani— denied...

Landscape and Structure Merge Within Pamba Bike Refuge
Pamba Bike Refuge by URLO Studio is located in Ascázubi, Ecuador, at the base of Pambamarca Hill within the landscape of Pamba Bike Park. Developed as a shelter and resting space for cyclists, the project responds to the climatic conditions of the Andes while establishing a direct relationship with the surrounding terrain, vegetation, and panoramic views. The bike park forms part of a larger agricultural property that has undergone extensive reforestation over recent decades, creating a landscape of forested trails and open clearings. Within this setting, the project references the region’s historical context, where ancestral pucarás, or fortified...

Grand Tier Grab Bag hearkens back to the days when Sondra Radvanovsky — who is singing no Verdi at all next season — seemed like the Verdi soprano of reference.
bold villa stretches horizontally across the Peloponnese’s hills
Bold Villa by Georges Batzios Architects unfolds through horizontal strong gestures that embrace the panoramic landscape in Peloponnese, Greece, fostering fluid transitions between interior and exterior spaces. This openness enhances the connection to nature and reinforces the luxurious character of the development. Articulated volumes and pergolas serve as subtle connectors to the landscape, fostering a sense of cohesion while maintaining the individuality of each unit. The massing remains low and terraced, sculpted and horizontally embedded into the natural terrain. This approach allows the architecture to harmonize with the site’s...

My favorite Verdi performance is Claudio Abbado Don Carlo opening of the Scala.
When the State Archives of Venice opened to the public as an exhibition venue for the first time in its history last week, artist Dayanita Singh wasn’t sure whether people would come. "We couldn't afford PR," she shared with Hyperallergic Editor-at-Large Hrag Vartanian, noting how she mounted her “photo-pillars” without institutional funding, relying instead on the "friendship economy.” Lo and behold, visitors did come, a testament to Singh’s singular approach to image-making and the living archive.

The history of photography has long been shaped by what is seen and, crucially, by what is omitted. New Woman, New Vision. Women Photographers of the Bauhaus enters this contested terrain with force, assembling an expansive body of work that feels at once familiar and newly charged. Bringing together approximately 300 photographs, the exhibition reframes the Bauhaus not as a closed chapter of modernism, but as an evolving site of authorship, experimentation and erasure. It is less a recovery project than a recalibration, asking viewers to look again at images they may think they know. In doing so, it exposes the fragility of the canon itself. What emerges is a complex picture of photographic modernity. From...
As we enter the summer months, there’s a universal desire to get outside. The trees are green, flowers are in full bloom and the sun is shining well into the evening. These five exhibitions are bringing contemporary art into nature, placing sculptures in dialogue with the environment. Each one offers visitors the opportunity to witness art outside of the confined of white walls and gallery spaces, getting up close to creativity on a monumental scale. Major names like Yayoi Kusama, Lynn Chadwick and Henry Moore take up new space, whilst Nic Nicosia and Nicola Turner transform familiar museums into new experiences.

The Cultural Landscape Foundation, a Washington D.C-based nonprofit focused on education and advocacy, has sued the Trump administration over its controversial makeover of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, arguing that federal officials failed to follow legally required review procedures before coating the basin in a bright blue surface. Filed Monday in federal court in Washington, D.C., the lawsuit seeks to halt work on the project through a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction. The group argues that the Interior Department violated the National Historic Preservation Act by moving ahead with major changes to one of the nation’s most recognizable memorial landscapes without the...
Air de Paris, a leading French gallery, will close its doors and declare bankruptcy after 36 years in business, the gallery’s cofounders, Florence Bonnefous and Edouard Merino, tell Cultured. Bonnefous says the gallery owes money only to the landlord and the bank, not her artists. The gallery is closing, per Cultured, due to its “fragile” finances as well as the founders’ health (Bonnefous suffers from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, and Mennino also has unspecified health issues). The gallery worked with artists including Trisha Donnelly, Joseph Grigely, Pati Hill, Pierre Joseph, Allen Ruppersberg, Lily van der Stokker, Mona Varichon, and Amy Vogel, all of whom were included in its farewell...
Throughout her illustrious 32-year career, Pacita Abad (1946-2004) traveled to more than 60 countries. Myriad experiences ultimately introduced her to a wide range of techniques, materials, and relationships, shaping the artist’s practice over time. Movement provided an enduring source of new ideas and inspiration, and as she put it, “For me, traveling is my art school.” In the spring of 1998, Abad visited Yemen. At the time, the country was still in recovery following the Yemeni Civil War, which took place four years prior. Grounded in her rigorous political engagement and the instabilities experienced in her native Philippines, Abad reflected on the immutable significance of cultural practices and...
With a stained glass window, light filters through to illuminate narrative scenes or geometric patterns, but it’s primarily the window itself that draws our attention. For Lesley Green of Bespoke Glass, these vibrant compositions certainly aren’t limited to these traditional apertures. “One of my personal obsessions is trying to convince people to hang glass on the wall instead of in the window, so you can really experience the pure color and texture of the glass,” she tells Colossal. Bespoke Glass creates a wide range of aesthetic and functional forms, conceived for both residential and commercial interiors. Some are designed to be screens or separators, such as behind a bar or between tables in a...
Riding the coattails—or perhaps it would be more apt to say the gown trails—of the monumental retrospective exhibition in 2023 in Paris at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, the Brooklyn Museum is about to open the striking new edition of Iris van Herpen: Sculpting the Senses. Building upon the previous presentation’s emphasis on the way fashion meets art, this show also includes recent collections like Sympoeisis, reaffirming Iris van Herpen’s one-of-a-kind approach to sustainable, sculptural couture. Van Herpen is known for her elaborate dresses that incorporate high-tech processes and materials, such as laser-cutting and Plexiglas, while also embracing the rhythms and patterns of biological and...
The purely musical performance preserved here is thrilling, ratcheted to a higher intensity than the Deutsche Grammophon studio recording
Contemporary art from the Asia Pacific arrives in London with the force of something already long in motion. Rising Voices: Contemporary Art from Asia, Australia and the Pacific brings together more than 40 artists from 25 countries, assembling over 70 works that span sculpture, photography, painting, ceramics, weaving and body adornment. Many of these works have never been shown outside the region, and their presence at the V&A immediately shifts the terms through which visibility is negotiated. What unfolds is a profound encounter with interconnected and evolving cultural systems across one of the most diverse regions in the world. Australia, Asia and the Pacific together account for roughly 60 percent of...
For a little more than two decades, Bavarian photographer Markus Brunetti has scoured Europe for its most impressive basilicas, monasteries, duomi, and other striking ecclesiastical landmarks. Working closely with collaborator Betty Schöner, with whom he travels around the continent in a firetruck that has been converted to a photo lab, the pair snap thousands of images of each structure in meter-by-meter detail, often over the course of several years. Through a meticulous editing process that includes layering and arranging each shot into composite images, Brunetti creates precise, high-resolution views of the facades that we never experience in real life. Perspective is skewed so that the ornate temples and...
By Melanie Chapman Let the Art (and the Artist) Speak for Itself Outside of the art world, painter Celeste Dupuy-Spencer may not yet be as familiar a name as Jean-Michel Basquiat or Vincent Van Gogh, but to those who followed her artistic growth over the past ten years, she was on her way. Perhaps therein lay the problem. For those who knew Celeste personally and/or had the opportunity to work with her professionally, there is still a profound sense of loss permeating most conversations...
The 61st edition of the Venice Biennale, In Minor Keys, curated by the late Koyo Kouoh (1967-2025), is now open. It will run until 22 November at the Giardini, the Arsenale and in various locations around the city. Here is Aesthetica‘s run-down of 10 standout national pavilions to discover this year – paying attention to timely themes such as communication, connection, ecology, identity and legacy. Swiss Pavilion | The Unfinished Business of Living Together In April 1978, an episode of the Swiss public programme Telearena aired. The live broadcast debated the “problem of homosexuality”, and, whilst controversial, marked one of the first occasions when individuals from the LGBTQ+ community gained a...

Liberation, modernism and the politics of self-determination form the conceptual spine of Architects of Liberation: Modernism in Western Africa, an exhibition opening this July at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. It examines how architecture became a critical medium through which newly independent West African nations articulated sovereignty, identity, and futurity in the decades following colonial rule. Rather than treating modernism as a neutral or imported style, the exhibition frames it as a charged and adaptive language, refracted through the urgencies of nation-building and rapid urban transformation. Across Benin, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal and Togo, architectural...

At some point, I realized I didn’t want to choose between the past and the present. I was interested in allowing them to coexist,” says baroque-style painter Nieves González, who distorts trappings of traditional portraiture to exalt modern day women. Her recent portrait of British pop star Lily Allen, for example, places contemporary attitude—and fashion—within […]

By Lorraine Heitzman Erik Otsea's show, Clever Animals & Static at Alto Beta is a menagerie of a different sort. His tabletop ceramic sculptures are quirky but solemn hand-built industrial shapes that suggest machine parts found in abandoned factories or as models for obscure patent applications. They conjure Soviet-style brutalist architecture and futuristic inventions, all simple geometric forms that hint at a bygone time when we believed that life could be improved through industry. So...
By William Moreno The painter constructs, the photographer discloses. Susan Sontag, “On Photography” William Camargo’s current exhibit of twenty-four plus works, dated 2019 through 2025, reads as a mini survey, with photographic images and installations thematically placed throughout the modest gallery. It’s his largest showing of works to date. Early in his career, the Anaheim native considered fashion and product photography, photojournalism and conflict reportage, finding the latter...
Join us on Sunday 07 June from 1.30pm to celebrate the launch of INTO THE TREES by photographer Jo Stapleton, curated by Karen Harvey and published by Shutter Hub Editions.
INTO THE TREES is an expressionist photographic account of Jo’s interactions with trees and woodland, later remembered and reimagined in the darkroom using a range of alternative processes and techniques.
Drinks and canapés will be served from 1.30pm before the formal launch event at 2pm, including a book signing and interview discussion between Karen and Jo about the making of the book and the role photography has to play in helping to protect our wildlife and green spaces.
To celebrate the launch of the book, Jo has produced a...
By Nancy Spiller Alec Egan's painting "Dawn House," in his show "Groundskeeper" at Vielmetter Los Angeles, is tender, serene, and calm — a lavender and peach sky sheltering the triangular top of a house flanked by two palm trees and the tip of a cypress. In its companion painting, "Night House," the sky takes a sinister turn with layers of dark blue, sunset orange, and a roiling strip indicative of flames mixed with what might be smoke. It hints at something of what Egan, his wife, and two...

In the forest nothing stands still. Time layered through thoughts and feelings, leaves kicked and crunched as we walk. The trees talk to each other, sending mycelium messages, carbon gifts, and warnings of drought or illness. From ancient wisdom to popular culture, it’s all here.
If a tree falls in the forest and there’s nobody there to hear it, did it make a sound? Of course it did. And if Jo Stapleton was there to capture the moment, there would be a visual symphony of light, shape and form to follow.

There’s just two weeks left to submit your work for The City Series: Cambridge!
An ongoing series of publications, The City Series sets out to explore the people, places, and cultures that shape cities around the world, showcasing images that respond to a place not as a fixed subject, but as an idea shaped by experience, observation, and interpretation.
The inaugural volume explores a city that has welcomed us, and been home to nearly a dozen Shutter Hub exhibitions – Cambridge.
Rather than defining Cambridge by landmarks or narratives, we invite photographers to approach the city openly, perhaps through people, atmosphere, details, routines, abstractions, or moments that feel personal or unexpected....

FEELING SEEN is guest curated by Jenna Eady as part of our Curate for the Community series.
Our sense of feeling goes beyond the physical – it’s emotional, atmospheric, and relational. It’s through these feelings that we connect with one another on a deeper level.
FEELING SEEN is about exploring how photography can express both internal and external sensations – whether it’s the rush of anticipation, the dis/comfort of the body, nostalgia of memory or tension of conflict. This project believes in photography’s power to evoke real emotional resonance. Its about creating the space for others to feel something.
The project aims to amplify diverse voices and create opportunities for new perspectives...
