So you’ve applied for the Guggenheim Fellowship for five years in a row, and still haven’t gotten it? That’s “early days” for this award, says Paddy Johnson in this especially juicy and candid edition of her advice column Art Problems. Read it to learn what artists should consider when deciding whether to spend a month out of their lives putting together a multi-page application, or doing literally anything else (learning an obscure language? Authoring a short memoir?)We’ve got a stacked newsletter to start your week. Critic Seph Rodney reviews Miles Greenberg’s immersive video installations at the Current in Stowe, Vermont, which plunge viewers in the artist’s durational performances, and...
ANN VERONICA JANSSENS BRINGS PERCEPTION TO GINZA
For her first solo exhibition in Japan, Ann Veronica Janssens is taking over Le Forum at Ginza Maison Hermès in Tokyo with things that are notoriously difficult to hang on a wall: light, air, time and perception itself. Titled 5 Chome 4-1 Ginza, Tokyo after the building’s own address, the exhibition opens on September 11, 2026, and brings together more than ten works conceived around the physical conditions of the space, alongside pieces from the artist’s ongoing practice since the 1990s.
Born in Folkestone in 1956 and based in Brussels, Janssens has spent decades testing how little an artwork might need in order to completely reorganize a room. After...

cinderclock treats the alarm clock as a standalone computer
Endothermal Systems’ CinderClock is a 3D printed standalone desktop alarm clock designed to keep the phone away from sleep and morning routines. Measuring 140 × 160 × 170 mm, the device combines a 3.12-inch monochrome OLED display with a joystick, tactile buttons, a 100 mm arcade button, removable battery cells, local audio storage, and environmental sensors, and performs without connecting to an app or subscription service.
The project grew from the designers’ frustration with using smartphones as alarm clocks. Their response is to reconsider what an alarm clock needs to be. The team established three principles at the outset: the device...

COMFORT IS NOT THE POINT
Armenian designer Shushana Khachatrian, founder and design director of STUDIO SHOO, deliberately removes comfort from an object normally defined by it with The Woman’s Chair. Conceived as a reflection on the relationship between women and contemporary social structures, the piece uses posture, instability and restricted movement to explore ideas of cultural expectation, visibility and control. At first glance, its polished stainless-steel body appears precise and minimal; sitting down reveals a rather less accommodating agenda.
The chair rests on three stainless-steel legs, introducing a subtle instability, while its angled backrest prevents the sitter from reclining...

how supercars are redefining domestic space
On the fifty-sixth floor of Porsche Design Tower Miami, a car might roll out of a glass elevator and park beside its owner’s apartment. The sixty-story tower was completed in Sunny Isles Beach in 2017, and was built around three car elevators (so-called Dezervator lifts) developed by Dezer Development.
A resident pulls up at ground level and sends the car upward through the tower’s core, where it reaches private parking attached to the home. A piece of infrastructure usually buried below grade has been pulled through the building and placed beside the living room.

Tra tutte le edizioni di Documenta, quella che si tenne nel 1972, dal titolo Interrogare la realtà – Mondi dell’immagine oggi, apriva una significativa riflessione sui linguaggi dell’arte contemporanea, il mondo reale e le sue rappresentazioni. Il titolo che il curatore Harald Szeemann scelse per la manifestazione risulta quanto mai contemporaneo, permettendo di consideralo come una valida prospettiva per scoprire lo studio dell’artista Luca Valerio (Fondi, Latina, 1966). È evidente come Interrogare la realtà – Mondi dell’immagine oggi presupponga una ricerca artistica che presenta elementi riconducibili all’arte concettuale, quindi caratterizzata da un rigoroso controllo formale e...
Through vivid sculptural paintings, Los Angeles-based artist Estefania Ajcip peers in on the fractures families face when split apart. Ajcip spent much of her childhood in Guatemala, while her father worked in L.A. and missed pivotal moments of her youth. In a new body of work titled Folded Memories, the artist contends with this adolescent experience, extrapolating her recollections into poignant compositions filled with a longing for connection. From birch plywood, papier mache, small LED lights, and acrylic, Ajcip constructs a surreal world in which childhood grief and dreams converge. She often works from family photos, pulling scenes and objects from her home and pushing them into a fantastical realm....

“After New York, Aruba,” instructs a subway ad with a video showing waves softly crashing against the rocks of a tropical island. My immediate response is to Google where Aruba is.Oh, yes, of course. It’s a small Caribbean island just 18 miles north of Venezuela and it’s said to belong to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, home to the original Prince of Orange. We’ve been talking at the office about retiring the term “Golden Age” to describe the bloodiest peaks of Dutch colonialism. One land’s golden age is another’s inferno. The Netherlands shone brightest with gold that was never theirs. Our own King of Orange has another island on his mind. It’s in the Persian Gulf and it sits on a sea of...
La fotografia ha da lungo stabilito la propria autorità su ciò che Roland Barthes ha denominato il ça a été: la traccia di un momento reale fisicamente impressa sull’immagine. Una fotografia indica. Jiayue Wang è un’artista cinese che lavora attraverso fotografia, installazione e immagine in movimento, interrogandosi su ciò che una fotografia inizia a perdere nel momento in cui viene scattata. La sua prima mostra personale in museo, After the Image, di recente tenutasi al Rugby Art Gallery and Museum, ha spinto questa domanda fino alle estreme conseguenze, esplorando ciò che un’immagine diventa una volta che non può più assolvere la sua supposta funzione di testimoniare il reale.

I've applied for the Guggenheim Fellowship for the last five years and got rejected every time. I believe I meet the required qualifications. Is this even worth doing? Please help! —Beverly, LA Almost everyone gets rejected. Almost everyone applies more than once. Is it worth doing? That answer depends on information I don’t have. Let’s start with your time. The application process takes a lot of it. If you don’t have much time, don’t apply. The Foundation requests two four-page documents outlining your art-making plan for the year and your qualifications; three references; a list of significant work; work samples; and other basic information about yourself. You don’t put all of that...
The board of regents will discuss opening the institution inside the historic Arts and Industries Building on the National Mall—a move that could circumvent congressional approval, and president Trump
A scathing report by French government investigators accuses Pierre-Olivier Costa, the recently suspended president of Marseille’s Musée des civilisations de l’Europe et de la Méditerranée (MuCEM), of sexual and moral harassment, breaching rules for granting public contracts, and putting the southern French city’s only national museum “at risk,” according to a Le Monde investigation. A front-page scoop published Friday evening in France also reveals that Marseille’s public prosecutor has expanded an ongoing criminal investigation into Costa’s time as president of Marseille’s top museum, notably amid allegations that he unlawfully used preferential treatment to award contracts and hire at the...
New information has been released by a little-known Canadian federal agency about its staffers’ years-long effort to contribute to a police investigation into fraudsters selling faked paintings supposedly by Indigenous Canadian artist Norval Morrisseau. CityNews Toronto reports that the largest art fraud case in the history of Canada took at least 1,000 fakes off the market, though there may be thousands more still in private hands. The case made headlines internationally, but the contribution by the Canadian Conservation Institute, an obscure part of the Heritage Department, was previously unreported. The Institute assists some 2,700 museums, libraries, and archival organizations, and, in this case,...
ARLES, France — When the 57th Rencontres d’Arles photography festival opened in the second week of July, its 47 exhibitions filled the ancient churches, modern galleries, and unconventional venues of Arles with contemporary photographs, and almost no air conditioning. Sweaty yet jovial visitors moved through Roman and medieval structures and along bustling streets lined with Parisian-priced cafés, carrying personal Evian misters and plastic spinning fans, new staples of the European summer in the age of climate crisis. Opening week drew 22,000 people, nearly half the population of Arles, a small French city on the Rhône once home to Vincent Van Gogh, yet everyone appeared to know everyone, or at least to...

According to the Art Newspaper, they are the first acquisition prizes to be established in the fair’s thirty-year […]
STOWE, Vt. — Across three adjacent screens, a warrior slathered in black oil and clothed only in dark briefs draws her double-edged sword, carefully, ceremoniously, across another combatant’s. The opponent falls back, both sword arm and sword outstretched to keep her at bay. The warrior grips her blade with her naked left hand, applies force. Her opponent sinks to her knees still holding her own sword like a talisman, like a shield, like a plea for détente. The aggressor pulls back as murky crimson water swims up and around both warriors’ legs. Around them swirl six other performers, all armed with swords and clothed similarly, with their skin wholly coated in a dark lubricant so that only their palms,...
Matthew Barney has been an integral part of the first two editions of the Aspen Art Museum’s AIR festival in Colorado: last year, with a performance in a former military drill hall on a cattle ranch; this year, with a related sculptural installation on a nearby tract of open land. The performance, an abstract sort of musical revue titled TACTICAL Parallax, drew elements from Barney’s previous works Redoubt (a 2019 film and related sculptures engaged with pioneering and alchemical spirits associated with the American West) and Secondary (a 2023 film and set of sculptures inspired by the violence and grace of football and a notorious incident in the 1970s that exposed the sport’s darkest side).

A federal court received an emergency appeal Thursday seeking to block the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts from restoring President Donald Trump’s name to the building. The Kennedy Center board, led by Trump and largely composed of his allies, voted earlier this month to engrave the president’s name beneath the signage on the venue’s facade, which would read: “The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts Restored and Renovated By President Donald J. Trump.” If the newly established Trump Kennedy Center Fund reaches $100 million the board would approve a second inscription reading: “Endowed by the Trump Kennedy Center Fund.” Thursday’s emergency request was filed by Rep....
The Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of the American Latino may make its home in the Arts and Industries Building, which the organization already owns, rather than in a purpose-built one, reports the New York Times, which says the decision may be made at a board meeting to take place August 31. The Smithsonian confirmed the meeting to the newspaper but declined to comment further. The 1881 building is on the National Mall, sited between the Smithsonian’s Castle and the Hirshhorn Museum. The board previously resolved to erect new buildings for the Latino Museum and the American Women’s History Museum, passing over Arts and Industries. The new buildings would have required congressional...

ÇANAKKALE, TURKEY—Hürriyet Daily News reports that excavations at the 1,700-year-old Western Bath at the sanctuary of Apollo Smintheus, which is located near the coast of northwestern Turkey, have uncovered areas with cold water pools, or frigidaria, and a changing room, or apodyterium. “We have not opened the pools yet, but right next to them is the first section of the bathhouse, the entrance area,” said Davut Kaplan of Ondokuz Mayıs University. “This is where people entering the bathhouse first undressed, prepared themselves, applied oil, and chatted,” he explained. Kaplan and his team have reached the floor surface of the bathhouse and are working to determine its boundaries. “We have...
COLOMBO, SRI LANKA—According to an AFP report, 17 gold-plated bronze Buddha statues have been unearthed at the site of the Abhayagiri temple in Anuradhapura, an ancient Sinhalese capital in north-central Sri Lanka. “We have found artifacts [at the temple site] before, but this is the first time we have seen such a large number of statues,” said Thusitha Herath of Sri Lanka’s Central Cultural Fund. The statues are estimated to be between 1,200 and 1,300 years old, he added. Theravada, Mahayana, and Vajrayana Buddhism are known to have been practiced in this sacred area of the ancient city, which was a pilgrimage site that drew visitors from China and India. To read about a Buddha statue carved into a...
At ICD Brookfield Place in Dubai, a vibrant collection of smiling inflatables sprouts from a vaulted ceiling, creating a suspended pool party of colorful forms. The spirited installation is titled “Under the Sun” and the latest project by duo Craig & Karl. “We wanted to capture the warmth, vibrancy, and joy of summer—distilled into one space and experienced from within the expansive summer garden atrium. A way to bring the season indoors,” the pair write about the project. Included in the installation are hot-weather staples like flowers, beach balls, inner tubes, and of course, a radiant sun. The immersive work is a new installment in Craig & Karl’s Mateys universe, populated by a vivid array of...

Microscopic image showing cut marks on a bone from a large whip snake (Dolichophis jugularis) KIEL, GERMANY—According to a statement released by Kiel University, analysis of cut marks on bones suggests that hunter-gatherers living in a small settlement on northern Israel’s Mount Carmel some 15,000 years ago hunted and consumed reptiles. “Lizards and snakes became an important part of [the Natufian] diet during this period,” said Maayan Lev of Kiel University. As these hunter-gatherers became more sedentary, they may not have had such a wide variety of food choices as when they had been nomadic, Lev explained. Along with Mina Weinstein-Evron and Reuven Yeshurun of the University of Haifa, Lev examined...

Enter The Magician’s Room, and you’ll encounter a brawny horse with a serpent coiled on its back, a flock of headless birds diving into a central star, and a fluffy white rabbit framed by an unblinking circle of eyes. This surreal, liminal space is the setting for a new body of work by Paris-based Lou Benesch. On view through August 22 at Hashimoto Contemporary, the solo exhibition takes the tarot’s Magician card as a starting point. Known as a trickster-wizard who connects the heavens and earth, the mysterious figure is primed for movement and change. Benesch translates the Magician’s inclination for action and mysticism into a collection of dreamy works on found and antique materials. “The...

Il 23 novembre 1962, in una chiesa sconsacrata nel centro di Copenaghen, Alison Knowles eseguì Nivea Cream Piece for Oscar Williams. Una fotografia di quella sera è oggi al Museum of Modern Art di New York. Nella stessa serata Dick Higgins interpretò il Drip Music di George Brecht salendo su una scala – un’invenzione esecutiva che gli interpreti ripetono ancora oggi. Era la prima delle sei sere del Festum Fluxorum, il secondo festival Fluxus della storia dopo quello di Wiesbaden, pianificato da George Maciunas e organizzato sul posto da Arthur Köpcke, dalla sezione danese della società di musica contemporanea e da Knud Pedersen, che dentro quella chiesa teneva la propria biblioteca d’arte.

THORNTON, ENGLAND—Iron was smelted in northern England some 2,400 years ago, The Yorkshire Post reports. An investigation conducted ahead of a construction project unearthed the bottom of a large furnace consisting of a pit that would have been packed with green wood. In this system, molten waste slag dripped down into the pit, slowly burned away the green wood, and collected as it cooled. The iron ore that was smelted at the site was likely collected from the surrounding wetland environment. The resulting metal is thought to have been used to construct the chariots and other grave goods discovered in burials in the region. To read about a hoard of Late Iron Age torcs unearthed on England's east coast, go to...
From the late 18th century through the end of the Civil War, the Underground Railroad was a network of safe houses where freedom-seekers from the South could find safety and shelter as they traveled north, sometimes all the way to Canada to escape capture and prosecution. It’s possible that there may have even been a secret code in the shapes of quilt blocks, which when arranged or displayed in a certain way could have helped direct people to stops along the route. This has never been confirmed with solid evidence, but even if it’s a thing of legend, the folk narrative is a powerful instrument for meaning in the oft-erased history of African American experience. From 18th-century hand-appliqué cotton...
LIMA, PERU—According to an Associated Press report, the bones of an adult have been uncovered near the base of Huaca Pucllana, an adobe pyramid constructed by the Lima culture some 1,400 years ago. Archaeologist Gladys Paz said that the bones are thought to belong to a man who may have been sacrificed during a ritual to close an underground channel linked to a ceremonial pool. The channel was lined with river stones rather than the small adobe bricks used to build many of the structures at Huaca Pucllana. The skeletal remains were found in the channel, resting on the left side, with the skull facing the pyramid and the Pacific Ocean, Paz explained. The remains will be analyzed for information on the...
We all have one, or at least some version of it: the junk drawer. Mine is a jumble of charging cables, old nails, a lanyard, matchbooks, a few key rings, scissors, an expired bottle of vitamins, every Allen wrench from every IKEA shelf I ever assembled, a few rubber bands, and frankly, who knows what else at this point. For artist Grace Baldwin, the junk drawer is a repository of memories and nostalgia, where common items end up in a place that’s simultaneously accessible and out-of-sight, out-of-mind. Lately, she’s been constructing a lifelike one at a monumental scale, drawer and all. “I typically create giant nostalgic but functional pieces, mostly through woodworking,” Baldwin tells Colossal....
Though, really, the young artists of the Merola Opera Program were more than alright in their annual showcase.
Il corpo è stato uno dei grandi dispositivi attraverso cui la modernità ha costruito immagini, identità e gerarchie dello sguardo. Per secoli il corpo femminile è stato soprattutto una superficie sottoposta alla rappresentazione: osservata, idealizzata, frammentata secondo codici estetici definiti dall’esterno. Intimate Anatomies, la mostra presentata da Hauser & Wirth a St. Moritz, propone una prospettiva diversa: indagare l’instabilità della presenza fisica e la sua resistenza a ogni definizione definitiva.

By Betty Ann Brown "The idea becomes a machine that makes the art."—Sol LeWitt Dean De Cocker creates richly conceived, exquisitely crafted, and visually delightful artworks that shuttle between abstraction and conceptual representation. He has long been drawn to machines, from bicycles to motorcycles, cars to airplanes, and formal echoes of these devices appear in his current body of work, exhibited at the Visual Arts Center in the small Central California town of Visalia. Welcome to the...
Skeletons, tombstones, and serpents. These are just a few of the iconic images pre-v ailing throughout the works of Morgan Sorensen—all relating to the themes of struggle, sadness, pain, and death.

The body is an obsession for Monica Piloni. Whether it’s a hollowed face in the Samieses series or the eerie dolls depicted in “Ilegais”, a majority of Monica Piloni’s sculptures confront the human form. And while consistently returning to the body may seem confining to some, it’s a pursuit marked by liberation for the Brazilian […]
