Retrospective on Aleksa Milojević’s The Nomad’s Automobile
 
Aleksa Milojević’s The Nomad’s Automobile was presented in the Future gallery of Motion. Autos, Art, Architecture at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, curated by Norman Foster. The 2022 exhibition examined the automobile through artistic and cultural perspectives, with one gallery dedicated to speculative proposals addressing the future of mobility. Milojević’s project contributed to this framework by exploring independent movement in response to resource scarcity, urban congestion, and shifting living patterns.
 
Set in the year 2086, The Nomad’s Automobile proposes a mobility system designed for existence beyond conventional urban...

For a brief moment ahead of the Venice Biennale this May, all eyes will be on Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where the Carnegie Museum of Art is staging its 2026 edition of the Carnegie International. For its biggest edition to date, the exhibition has tapped an array of 61 artists based in nations ranging from the Philippines to Peru, many of whom will premiere new work when the show opens on May 2. Founded in 1896, the Carnegie International is the oldest biennial-style show in the US; it is now staged once every four years. While the Carnegie International may lack the name recognition of the Whitney Biennial, which this year takes place concurrently in New York, this prestigious exhibition has been valuable in...

The choreographer and performance artist is best known for her radical theatre performances

When Thaddaeus Ropac announced this week that he would begin representing Florentina Holzinger, it landed as more than a standard roster update. Holzinger has spent the past decade building a reputation as one of Europe’s most uncompromising performance artists. She has filled opera houses and theaters with motorbikes, helicopters, heavy machinery, nudity, and feats of endurance that test what a body can withstand. What she has not had, until now, is gallery representation. That changes just as she prepares to represent Austria at the 61st Venice Biennale later this year. For Holzinger, who trained in choreography and moved quickly into large-scale theatrical productions, the shift into a commercial gallery...

tbilisi shop frames organic merchandise with industrial style  
 
BARR x Cutburo Café and Flower Shop is a monochromatic retail and cafe space in Tbilisi, Georgia. The design objective was to unify two distinct sensory experiences – the social ritual of a café and the delicate, organic nature of a flower shop – under a singular, futuristic aesthetic. The project operates on the principle of ‘industrial coldness,’ using a sharp, silver-toned palette to frame and elevate the natural life contained within. The material selection is central to the project’s spatial identity. Stainless steel serves as the primary medium, chosen for its reflective properties and its ability to create a dialogue...

The world is in desperate need of sensitive, caring art teachers who are as eager to learn as they are to instruct, and Mónica Palma is a shimmering example of just such a teacher. The Mexican-born, Brooklyn-based artist and educator reflects today on the lessons she learned from teaching art to young children.As some of the hundreds of children at ICE's horrific Dilley detention center in Texas share testimonies this week, I can't stop thinking about one clay workshop she organized for children who had recently migrated from Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador. They immediately associated the clay with the dangerous crossing through the jungle to reach the United States. As an educator, Palma followed...

Seoul wing provides temporary shelter in parks
 
Seoul Wing by BKID is a series of installative sunshades for parks that can withstand typhoons and harsh weather. Formed with a sloping roof, the bird-wing-shaped structures are made from polyurethane mesh, giving them a lightweight and robust design. Seoul’s summers are humid, and at times, the country experiences sudden storms and seasonal typhoons. Traditional parasols and tents break under strong winds, so BKID reframes these through the lens of biomimicry because in nature, wings can withstand air by being flexible and distributing force.

A historic Manhattan home that’s long been a window into 19th-century New York life has revealed an unexpected secret. It turns out the Merchant’s House Museum, a preserved landmark in the NoHo neighborhood, appears to have once served as a refuge for people escaping slavery.The discovery came during an inspection of a built-in dresser in a second-floor hallway. When archaeologists examined the area beneath its drawers, they found a small rectangular opening cut into the floorboards. The opening led to a concealed space, roughly 2 feet by 2 feet, complete with a ladder down to the ground floor.Experts said the secret passage suggests the house may have functioned as a “safe house” on the Underground...

PnP Furniture (Plank and Point) introduces Cabinet Collection
 
PnP Furniture (Plank and Point) introduces the Cabinet Collection, a series of storage pieces constructed through a modular system of planks and exposed screw connections. The series draws on the logic of wooden fences, where evenly spaced vertical boards create rhythm, order, and enclosure through simple modular components.
 
The arrangement of regularly dimensioned planks establishes a consistent visual cadence. This ordered framework provides a structured setting for the objects stored within, addressing the need for coordination as personal belongings accumulate over time. Rather than concealing storage, the system defines it through visible...

Bergmeisterwolf inserts Incised, a project that accommodates employees of the nearby hotel, into a narrow Alpine valley shaped by the highway, train tracks, state road, and nearby river in Franzensfeste, Italy. The concrete volume aligns itself parallel to the road, forming a sloping edge that establishes presence within what is described as ‘a place without a place.’
 
The site is shaped by constant movement and tight spatial limits. The team responds with an elongated concrete body that traces the line of the state road, its pitched roof carving a distinct silhouette against the steep terrain. Diamond-shaped windows puncture the monolithic...

Yorgos Lanthimos needs no introduction. From the unsettling minimalism of Dogtooth to the baroque intensity of The Favourite, his films have repeatedly reshaped contemporary cinema. Celebrated for a singular vision that balances absurdist humour with acute human insight, Lanthimos has become synonymous with uncompromising originality. Five-time Academy Award nominations, a Golden Globe, a BAFTA, the Jury Prize at Cannes and the Golden Lion at Venice attest to the scale and reach of his imagination. Each work exists as a world, meticulously constructed and unnervingly precise, drawing audiences into spaces that are intimate yet disorienting. This same careful orchestration informs his latest venture: a major...

What does love look like? Sometimes it comes with lust and desire, sometimes with deep-rooted care from the heart, and other times it’s a disguise for something that isn’t love at all.
Love can be found in the quieter gestures of everyday life. It can look like kindness, the people and places you hold dear, moments of care and support, or the small comforts that bring you peace: a cup of tea, a single flower, a familiar corner of home.
DO YOU LIKE LOVE? is a metaphor for the things that bring us joy and comfort, and for what we offer others to help them feel the same. Within the pages of DO YOU LIKE LOVE?, photographers answer the question – do you like love?

The traveling exhibition Amy Sherald: American Sublime has set a new attendance record at the Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) since it opened last November, the institution said this week.According to a BMA spokesperson reached by Hyperallergic, attendance stood at 63,000 as of Monday, February 9, and is expected to peak at 75,000 by the time the show closes on April 5. That makes Sherald's mid-career survey the museum's most-attended show since 2000 — a remarkable feat considering that the BMA was not an original destination on American Sublime's itinerary. Consisting of nearly 50 quietly contemplative grisaille portraits of Black Americans, Sherald's show debuted at the San Francisco...

Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum has called it ”the most important archaeological finding of the last decade”

At the end of November of 2011, I saw my dad take his last breath. I came back to the United States after participating in all the death-related rituals that helped organize my pain in México. New York City was not a place to live my mourning, and right around December of the same year, I felt an intense longing to become small again. I needed to work with children. Another time, around 1990, I’d had a similar urge after finishing my own cancer treatment. I was seeking life.I felt dizzy and disorganized working those first jobs with children. I went to art school and did not have an official training in childhood education, so I learned on the go. The children didn’t respond to logic, or at least not the...

Photographer Jerry McMillan, who played a key role in documenting the mid-century art scene in Los Angeles, died on Monday, February 9, at the age of 89. The cause was “old age and a broken heart,” according to his son. McMillan’s wife of more than six decades, Patricia Ella McMillan, had passed away a week earlier.Born on December 7, 1936, McMillan grew up in Oklahoma City, where he was childhood friends with Ed Ruscha and Joe Goode. In 1957, he drove to Los Angeles to attend the Chouinard Art Institute (now the California Institute of the Arts), joining Ruscha, Goode, and fellow Okie transplants Patrick Blackwell and Mason Williams. The group lived together in Hollywood, then Los Feliz, and dubbed...

Should I allow my work to be sold to people whose politics I hate? I’m not okay with the ongoing injustice in Minneapolis and I don’t want to pretend this is just a difference of opinion. —distraught painter in AmericaShort answer. No. You should not allow your work to be sold to MAGA supporters. The entire administration is corrupt and supporting it is a choice. You don't owe them your work.Whether you can exercise that right, though, depends on your financial situation, your relationship with your gallery, and how much leverage you have. For some artists, decision-making will be straightforward. For others, it comes at a high cost. You decide whether you can incur that cost. But individual...

When we think of terms like “flowing” or “fluid,” we could be referring to the nature of water, but we can also just as easily apply these concepts to our understanding of art and craft. Fabrics “pool” and different mediums converge. The nature of creativity is often referred to in terms of an “ebb and flow.” Ecologically speaking, bodies of water are metaphorically woven into the fabric of our planet. Rivers and lakes sustain an abundance of life, shape cultures, and course through history. Amid the ongoing climate crisis, how do artists express concerns about water and the environment? Water | Craft, a group exhibition at the Minnesota Marine Art Museum, dives into this question. The museum...

1927 photograph of drill (left); recent photographs of artifact (right) BADARI, EGYPT—According to a statement released by Newcastle University, archaeologists have identified the earliest known metal drill from Egypt, a 2.5-inch-long copper-alloy tool used some 5,300 years ago, long before ancient Egyptians were thought to have used such technology. Egyptologists originally thought that the artifact, which was excavated at the site of Badari in the 1920s, was an awl or a simple punching tool. But recent microscopic examination of the artifact revealed telltale marks suggesting it was manipulated by a bow to pierce wood or stone in a rotary motion. “This re-analysis has provided strong evidence that this...

Although James Reka finds total freedom in his studio practice, it’s public art that he gravitates toward. The Australia-born artist researches the history of a building or neighborhood as he conceptualizes a mural and enjoys the constraints of creating within a particular geographic and cultural context. “Public art needs to connect with the local community,” he says. “It does need to have a narrative or a message, even if it’s very subtle. I am mindful of this and choose to view it as a challenge to explore certain themes and color combinations that my studio work does not.” Rheine, Germany Reka renders minimalist shapes into dense compositions with a distinctive sense of vitality and movement....

Fragment of an inscribed votive stone REGENSBURG, GERMANY—La Brújula Verde reports that archaeologists discovered a temple to the god Mithras in Bavaria during 2023 excavations prior to construction of apartment buildings in the old town of Regensburg. Little of the building is preserved since it was constructed of wood. Artifacts recovered within the structure, including an inscribed votive stone and fragments of metal votive plaques, point to its ritual use. Incense burners and fragments of a ceramic vessel decorated with snake motifs—imagery specifically connected to worship of Mithras—allowed researchers to identify the site as a sanctuary dedicated to the god. Moreover, handled drinking jugs found...

GARNEILL, MONTANA—For around 700 years, Native people of the American Great Plains hunted bison at a site in central Montana that archaeologists call Bergstrom. Then, around 1,100 years ago, humans abandoned the site even though bison remained abundant in the area, according to a statement released by Frontiers. “The Bergstrom site presented a puzzle,” paleoecologist John Wendt of New Mexico State University said. “Why would hunters stop using a site that had worked for so long?” In 2019, Wendt’s team began digging and investigating three-foot-by-three-foot excavation pits to try to better understand the Bergstrom site’s use and eventual disuse. Researchers collected animal bone and pollen...

Redolent of African basketry, hairstyles, headwear, and pottery, Donté K. Hayes’ abstract ceramic sculptures may be interpreted as poetic vessels, even though they lack traditional openings. While we easily associate clay pots and round woven forms with ideas related to storage, protection, and even spiritual significance, they also nod to the human head as a holder—a kind of receptacle for culture, language, personal expression, and dreams. For the past several years, Hayes has approached porcelain with an emphasis on mostly monochrome black forms with meticulously hand-marked surfaces with textures that appear almost strand-like. Recently, he’s begun incorporating colored porcelain into the bulbous...

Yemeni-Egyptian-American artist Yumna Al-Arashi (b. 1988) creates work with a singular purpose: to oppose the oppression and stereotyping of women worldwide. The artist uses a range of media – photography, book, sculpture – to explore how the Arab world is depicted, question the legacy of colonialism in our thoughts and contemplate matriarchal traditions that are all but lost. Huis Marseille presents Al-Arashi’s first solo museum exhibition, titled Body as Resistance, which brings together her entire oeuvre. Featured works include dyptich Axis of Evil (2020), which depicts four women from the countries designed “rogue states” by the US government and Shedding Skin (2017), made in a bathhouse in...

The very first Biennale was founded in 1895 in Venice, as an international exhibition designed to bring artists from across Europe together in the Giardini gardens, fostering exchange and dialogue between nations. Originally established as a celebration of artistic innovation, it created a precedent for large-scale exhibitions that could combine national pride with cross-cultural engagement. Over time, the Biennale expanded its remit beyond painting and sculpture to include architecture, film, performance and multimedia works. It is a festival of ideas, a convergence of memory, place and political reflection, where art ceases to exist in isolation and becomes a catalyst for social engagement. Biennales have...

In un mondo dell’arte che, nell’attuale frangente di deriva imperialista, autoritaria e bellicista, è apparso finora troppo silente e timido, la Fondazione Merz di Torino ha scelto di schierarsi. Diverse mostre e iniziative che vi hanno avuto luogo di recente, a partire dalla mostra dell’artista palestinese Khalil Rabah nel 2023, si sono collocate senza timore nel discorso politico, attraverso un fare cultura che è anche informare e creare comunità. Prendendo spunto da una considerazione tratta da uno scritto di Mario Merz, “la cultura si sveste e fa apparire la guerra”, la mostra collettiva Push the Limits 2 si pone in continuità con questi intenti e costituisce il secondo capitolo di una...

Jason Mitcham’s childhood home in Greensboro, North Carolina, is no longer standing. In 2011, the local government seized the house and the land he grew up on via eminent domain to widen what was then High Point Road into what’s now Gate City Boulevard. Mitcham last saw the site in 2023, when a paved highway blanketed where the neighborhood once stood, and fragments of garages and barns still marked the landscape. To memorialize this beloved landmark, Mitcham hand-painted “Ever Behind the Sunset,” a touching stop-motion film that combines a series of expressive compositions with audio from the artist’s mother and his own home videos taken throughout the 1980s. Panels of thick, gestural brushstrokes...

The expression “wherever you go, there you are” is often wielded to describe futile attempts to escape hangups, anxieties, and a variety of unwanted emotions. Although this truism is typically offered as a negative, it can also be read as a positive that provides comfort and stability amid new environments. In I Bring Home with Me, Ghanaian artist Amoako Boafo recreates his Accra studio in an architectural reproduction within Roberts Projects’ Los Angeles gallery. Boafo is known for his stylized portraiture of Black people, whose skin the artist renders in swirling gestures made with his fingers. This exhibition presents a collection of paintings embedded within the life-sized replica, created in...

T-shaped antler axe with broken and polished edge EILSLEBEN, GERMANY—Live Science reports that excavations at an ancient farming village near Eilsleben in northern Germany have uncovered intriguing new evidence about interactions between the region’s preexisting hunter-gatherers and Europe’s earliest farmers. Archaeologists believe the site served as a kind of frontier outpost for the first wave of Neolithic agriculturists who migrated to central Europe from Anatolia and established the site around 5375 b.c. Recent fieldwork has uncovered houses, burials, pits, and cultural material belonging to the so-called Neolithic Linear Pottery culture, or LBK. However, archaeologists were also surprised by the...

Until recent years, however, its exact location remained lost to archaeologists. According to a report by La Brújula Verde, new research has not only helped rediscover the site, but has provided new details about its extensive size and layout.
