“Paintings arrive at the studio in all states of disrepair,” shares art conservator Julian Baumgartner, who receives artworks in need of attention all the time. He adds, “It is, however, odd to have a painting arrive in a manner that can’t help but make one wonder just how bad it is.” An anonymous portrait was indeed folded inside a parcel that itself had been mangled enough in transit to make one think, Is this going to be salvageable? For the highly trained painting restorer, though, “Fortune favors the fold.” Baumgartner has seen his fair share of bad overpainting and, in this case, pretty substantial creases, tears, and worn-away paint. He runs Baumgartner Fine Art Restoration, a...

JCB’s hydrogen-powered Hydromax chases 350 mph
 
JCB is taking hydrogen power to the Bonneville Salt Flats with Hydromax, a long, low land speed car built to chase 350 mph across the Utah desert. Better known for its yellow excavators and construction machines, the British company is now putting its hydrogen combustion technology into a very different kind of vehicle: a record-seeking, racer with 1,600 horsepower, two engines, and fighter pilot Andy Green behind the wheel.
 
Andy Green is a familiar name at Bonneville. In 2006, he drove JCB’s Dieselmax to 350.092 mph, setting the diesel land speed record in a car that translated industrial engine technology into pure speed. Hydromax picks up that thread...

Actress and sometime performance artist Tilda Swinton will stage a performance at the Guggenheim Bilbao next month. Titled House of Gestures, the work is a collaboration between Swinton and fashion historian and curator Olivier Saillard. Commissioned by Dom Pérignon this year, the piece is being billed as “an original work conceived around gesture, presence, and transformation” with special attention to its setting in the museum’s atrium. The performance will be open to the public, who can register in advance on the museum’s website. Staged on June 5 and June 6, House of Gestures is part of Dom Pérignon’s “Creation is an eternal journey” series, which the champagne producer has described as a...

Oceans cover nearly three-quarters of our planet, containing a staggering 96.5 percent of its water. And despite our ever-advancing technologies and cartographic tools, we’ve still only mapped about a tenth of the earth’s oceans. There’s so much we have yet to see or understand, but our reliance on things like fossil fuels and single-use plastics continue to have an indelible impact on the health of marine wildlife and habitats. Arch Enemy Arts’ forthcoming exhibition, Common Waters, brings these concerns to the fore. From the ethereal weirdness of jellyfish to the delicate branches of corals, the works not only touch on the incredible biodiversity below the surface, but also remind us of the ocean’s...

Tens Atelier revives 1970s rural auditorium as Stone-oven Bakery
 
Cycle&Cycle Stone-oven Bakery Restaurant by Tens Atelier is located in Shangwang Village, Fusheng Town, Shaoxing, Zhejiang, China. The building was originally constructed in the 1970s as a rural auditorium, associated with Nixon’s visit to China and carrying a specific historical context. In 2022, Cycle&Cycle acquired the construction and usage rights, initiating renovation and structural reconstruction, which was completed by the end of 2023. In early 2025, the program was redefined as a rural stone-oven bakery, and Tens Atelier was commissioned to develop the interior spatial design.

Few photographers have altered the trajectory of contemporary image-making as profoundly as Joel Meyerowitz. Born in New York in 1938, Meyerowitz emerged as one of the defining visual voices of post-war America, transforming colour photography from a medium associated with advertising and vernacular snapshots into a serious artistic language capable of emotional and philosophical depth. Across six decades, his work has reshaped the possibilities of street photography, landscape, portraiture, and visual narrative, always guided by an acute sensitivity to light, atmosphere, and human presence. Alongside contemporaries such as William Eggleston and Stephen Shore, Meyerowitz established colour photography as an...

pneumatic environments and the politics of impermanence
 
Inflatable environments, atmospheric installations, suspended membranes, and pneumatic structures persistently resurface across museums, biennales, galleries, and public space, often reappearing in moments marked by instability, exhaustion, and shifting social conditions, yet almost always generating a peculiar sense of wonder and lightness. Forms drift above visitors’ heads, pulse with circulating air, or dissolve into fog, transforming atmosphere itself into something tactile.

In an age defined by the incessant circulation of images, photography has become less a discrete medium than an ambient condition. Pictures arrive and depart with such velocity that looking is often reduced to a kind of reflex – a flicker of attention rather than sustained encounter. The photograph, once anchored in the idea of duration, now behaves like a surface of perpetual present tense, endlessly refreshed and endlessly displaced. However, within this saturation, photography festivals have become increasingly important as counter-temporal spaces – environments in which images are slowed, recontextualised and recharged through proximity, scale and sequence. They function as temporary architectures of...

Nato nel 1971 a Charleston, South Carolina, e attualmente di base a New York, Maxwell Stevens ha stabilito il disegno come pietra angolare della sua pratica, elevandolo a linguaggio visivo autonomo. In questa intervista, l’artista rivela la sua fascinazione per l’immediatezza e la materialità delle opere su carta, dove linea e superficie servono come veicoli dinamici per il pensiero e la riflessione emotiva. Esplorando la tensione tra figurazione e astrazione, Stevens ci invita a vedere il disegno come uno spazio intimo, “palinsestico” che, nella sua semplicità elementale, cattura la complessità frammentata della nostra esperienza contemporanea.

In a rather peculiar blunt rotation, Jackson Pollock, Constantin Brancusi, and Hollywood star Nicole Kidman were all part of a record-setting $1 billion evening sale at Christie's on Monday, May 18. Pollock’s 10-foot-long drip painting “Number 7A, 1948,” shattered records for work by the late artist, selling for $181.2 million. The superlative sale nearly tripled the artist's previous auction record of $61.2 million for the sale of "Number 17, 1951" in 2021. In the same sale, Brancusi's cast-bronze bust “Danaïde” (c. 1913) went for $107.6 million, becoming the second most expensive sculpture ever sold after Alberto Giacometti's “L'Homme au Doigt” (1947) fetched $141.2...

The cultural minister of Guatemala has begun the process to reclaim a 1,200-year-old stone lintel that was repatriated from the United States to Mexico in mid-April, according to a report in the Art Newspaper. The object was initially brought to the Mexican consulate in New York by an unidentified American businessman, who presumably realized that it had been illegally removed from its country of origin at some point before he or she acquired it. The lintel depicts ritual acts involving the sun god and Cheleew Chan K’inich, a late ruler of the ancient Mayan city Yaxchilán, and was made around 600-900 CE. It is signed by the carver known as Mayuy, one of the only artists in the ancient Americas to sign his...

WARSAW, POLAND—Science in Poland reports that traces of fermented alcoholic beverages have been detected on 4,500-year-old vessels uncovered in northeastern Poland by a team of researchers led by Dariusz Manasterski of the University of Warsaw. The 13 vessels in the study were found at several different sites linked to the Bell Beaker culture. The residues in at least nine of the vessels contained metabolic products of bacteria and yeast, which indicate that fermentation had taken place, Manasterski said. Some of the vessels may have held more complex mixtures, such as Nordic grog, he added. The scientists also detected biomarkers for processing wheat and barley, fruit, and possible resins that may have been...

When Valerie Lueth of Tugboat Printshop sets out to make a woodblock print, it’s rare that she only uses a single block. Instead, sometimes up to five distinctly carved pieces are incorporated, each containing different details that, when combined, create a total image. To make the prints, which are usually limited to editions of 100 or so, Lueth rolls the meticulously hand-carved blocks with colorful ink, layering them precisely in order. Black outlines define flora and fauna, for instance, which are first laid down as colorful shapes.

Alla Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, la prima personale istituzionale italiana di Lenz Geerk, Theatre of the Mind, si presenta come un dispositivo percettivo in cui la pittura regola le circostanze dell’apparizione. La mostra elabora un campo in cui sagoma, spazio e tempo non si danno simultaneamente, ma come scansioni differite, in cui la visione arriva sempre leggermente dopo il proprio accadere. Nei dipinti di Geerk non si dispiegano rappresentazioni semplici. Figure, oggetti e situazioni coesistono in configurazioni instabili e gli elementi non tendono a una sintesi, ma rimangono in uno stato di connessione irrisolta, in cui ciò che affiora non coincide mai davvero con ciò che si compie.

Between the rhythms of global capital and the architectures of digital life, meaning today is produced in spaces where the physical and the virtual are no longer distinct but mutually constitutive. Labour, identity, memory and desire circulate through systems of automation, simulation and networked communication that reshape how experience is felt and represented. Within this condition, contemporary art becomes a site for testing the limits of perception itself – a way of registering how subjectivity is formed under technological pressure. It is here that the work of Cao Fei finds its urgency, staging a world in which utopia and exhaustion, play and infrastructure, coexist in uneasy proximity. Her practice...

LUXOR, EGYPT—Authorities from Egypt’s Luxor Museum revealed a never-before-seen plaster wall from King Tutankhamun’s tomb, The Independent reports. The wall was originally constructed just before the burial chamber was sealed to protect the young pharaoh’s grave from intruders. It still bears stamps associated with the funerary rituals and seals belonging to Tutankhamun as well as those of the necropolis guards charged with keeping the tombs safe and protecting them from theft. Similar blocking walls are almost never found intact by archaeologists because so many royal Egyptian tombs were looted in antiquity and they were dismantled by robbers.

The tooth’s crown featured an unusual deep hole that extended into the pulp cavity. After researchers conducted a detailed analysis of the prehistoric tooth and experiments on modern teeth, they concluded that the hole was most likely created when someone used a small stone point to drill into an infected tooth and alleviate pain caused by a cavity.

Uluru stands at the heart of Australia’s “Red Centre.” The sandstone monolith, rising 348 metres above the desert, has stood for 550 million years. The natural wonder is a symbol of Aboriginal land rights and a source of spiritual connection with the continent. Artist Bruce Munro (b. 1959) visited the site in the 1980s. The trip, which began as part of a journey around Australia, marked a turning point in both his life and artist trajectory. The location inspired Field of Light, an installation of 50,000 solar powered stems, which illuminates an area the size of seven football fields.

Eppure, Buongiorno Ceramica!, giunta alla sua dodicesima edizione il 23 e 24 maggio 2026, è una delle poche occasioni in cui il termine “diffuso” – spesso abusato dal lessico delle arti contemporanee – riacquista una misura concreta e verificabile.

All’interno del programma di 480 Site Specific, nello spazio di EDICOLA480 con la direzione artistica di Massimiliano Bastardo, il dipinto I secondi soldati di Gabriele La Torre – pittore palermitano, nato nel 2003 – si impone come un’immagine in apparenza semplice che, a uno sguardo più attento, rivela una costruzione percettiva instabile e stratificata. L’olio su tela lavora su un immaginario immediatamente riconoscibile, quello dei soldatini di plastica, ma ne sovverte la funzione narrativa, trasformandolo in un campo di tensione sospeso tra memoria, ripetizione e dislocazione.
