Good Morning! Ukrainian drones struck and set on fire the Defense of Sevastopol museum in Crimea. Self-taught photographer Duane Michals has died at 94. Brussels’ 2003-founded dépendance gallery is closing. The Headlines CRIMEA CULTURAL CONFLICT. Yesterday, Ukrainian drone strikes on supply chains to Russian-controlled areas also set ablaze a war museum in the Russian-annexed region of Crimea, called the Defense of Sevastopol, reported Reuters. Images showed the roof of the 19th-century building on fire, and according to a statement by Sevastopol city official Mikhail Razvozhayev, the museum’s early 20th-century panorama painting by Franz Roubaud, The Siege of Sevastopol, was damaged. However,...

“Matter is memory, and memory is a medium,” says artist Annalise Neil, whose surreal cyanotypes brim with animals, fungi, geological specimens, shells, and more, which she augments with watercolor. Recently, the artist has been adding rich, earthy tones with natural dyes such as wild strawberry leaf, oak gall, loquat leaf, and chestnut. She has used botanical teas to shift the natural blue color of the cyanotypes for quite a while, but the sepian tonality has emerged as a larger focus lately that allows her to layer hues like browns and purples. Neil’s experiences in nature profoundly influence her individual pieces in a process that she poetically describes as “melting, rolling, pinching, sanding,...

The Aesthetica Art Prize showcases 20 international artists whose work tackles the defining issues of our age.

The artists are on display at York Art Gallery from 17 July – 15 November. Kazuaki Koseki | The Himebotaru firefly are native to the Japanese forest of Yamagata. Unlike other...

woven VHS tapes transform obsolete media into a tapestry
 
In Stories Seen and Heard (2025), Polish artist Kuba Święcicki transforms discarded VHS tapes and cassette recordings into a monumental woven installation, asking what happens when obsolete technology becomes a craft material.  Encountered as part of Visteria Foundation’s Craft Days exhibition, the work explores how memories survive long after the devices designed to store them have disappeared.
 
Suspended against the gallery wall, the installation unfolds as a dense black tapestry constructed entirely from magnetic tape. At its center, hundreds of interwoven strips create a reflective surface that catches and diffuses light, producing an...

ARNO COENEN ARTWORKS ENHANCE TAIWAN’S HUANNAN MARKET
 
Three large-scale public artworks by the Dutch artist Arno Coenen transform the Huannan Market in Taipei, Taiwan, into a cultural landscape. The art project, titled ‘The Flavour Dragon’, designed by the same artist behind the world-renowned Horn of Plenty at Markthal in Rotterdam, is a cross-cultural collaboration between Taiwan and the Netherlands, bridging innovative artistic approaches with traditional craftsmanship and aesthetics.  
Hosted by Taipei’s central food hub, the public artworks include a six-meter-tall dragon sculpture, a series of eight large ceramic plates, and a printed ceramic mural depicting cultural landmarks in Taiwan. The...

You may know Carmen Maria Machado as the author of the acclaimed short story collection Her Body and Other Parties, or her memoir In the Dream House, a candid chronicle of abuse in a queer relationship, or her many other published works. But the Cuban-American writer, who was a photography major in college, has also long collaborated with visual artists. Today she speaks to Associate Editor Lakshmi Rivera Amin about her latest venture as a guest curator of painter Rocío García’s exhibition at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art — a show she hopes will inspire us “to be interested in both the violence and power of the state, and the power as we exchange it between people.”Also today: a major Arthur Jafa...

a parasol that children want to carry themselves
 
Japanese design studio torinoko and distributor All Stadium collaborate for a children’s umbrella that encourages sun protection through play. Created in response to increasingly intense summer temperatures, the rain-and-sun umbrella projects playful shadow characters onto the ground, transforming the act of seeking shade into an interactive game, using behavioral design principles to make children want to use one on their own.
 
Named Kage no Otomodachi, or Shadow Friends, the umbrella reveals a series of illustrated companions within its shadow when opened in direct sunlight, inviting children to follow, chase, and walk alongside these figures, naturally...

a bricolage of craft, souvenirs, and hardware-store finds
 
Developed during a residency at Metropolitan Fukujusou (AiR) in Kyoto, Hacienda Okazaki is a collection by Hoi Kaloi that examines contemporary Japanese material culture through the lens of reuse, vernacular design, and everyday objects. Produced in response to the Okazaki neighborhood, the project assembles found elements from different cultural and historical contexts, combining Mingei antiques and Shōwa-era souvenirs with components sourced from hardware and discount stores.
 
The collection is constructed as a series of bricolages in which disparate materials and objects are brought together through processes of reappropriation and...

Since the opening of the late German artist's Venice show, events at the Biennale and the result of the UK's council elections have continued to expose art's vulnerability to politics

2025 was the fiftieth anniversary of the start of the Lebanese Civil War (1975-1990). As the milestone passes, the country is still feeling its lasting consequences, whilst grappling with recent economic crisis, the Covid-19 pandemic, Beirut Port Explosion and further escalating conflict. In Where Do I Go, on view at the new Robert Klein Gallery x Sea-Dar exhibition space in Boston, photographer Rania Matar collaborates with women from the region, making portraits that visualise their stories, which are often shaped by the difficult question of whether to stay or go. Matar sees her younger self in the women she photographs. As a Lebanese-born, American-Palestinian woman, the artist’s cultural background and...

«I vestiti sono contenitori di corpi, come i corpi sono, a loro volta, i contenitori delle anime; il vestito è l’ultimo feticcio, il segnaposto che rimane quando qualcuno non c’è più». Questo pensiero di Eugenio Dallari fa subito riflettere su quanto la materialità possa essere connessa con i nostri ricordi e quanto, nonostante il suo essere effimera e trasformabile nel tempo, possa diventare qualcosa che si radica profondamente nel nostro vissuto, presente e passato.

porcelain bowls drift among The Armory
 
Inside New York’s Park Avenue Armory, clinamen takes shape as water gathers into three circular basins, where white porcelain bowls drift across the surface and strike each other in small, ringing collisions. Following the project’s latest iteration at the Bourse de Commerce in Paris last year, French artist, musician, and composer Céleste Boursier-Mougenot brings the site-responsive, aquatic sound installation to New York at its largest scale to date, turning the hall’s 55,000-square-foot volume into a place for extended listening.
 
Installed from June 10th through August 2nd, 2026, the work fills the Drill Hall with three circular basins, each forty feet...

Known for his vibrant palettes and flattened perspectives, Belgian artist Kristof Santy translates common sights and everyday objects into vivid tableaux. His paintings often highlight fruit and vegetables, tabletops, and modes of transportation, particularly those involved in industrial labor. A new body of work continues Santy’s inquiries into the mundane, this time extending into fashions and furnishings. There’s a striped sweater vest with a nearly imperceptible wrinkle hanging from a rod and a modernist chair in fuchsia pushed against a kelly green wall. Earlier investigations appear, too, including a short, roll-up ladder dangling from the door of a helicopter as it hovers in the air sans operator....

The subject of an auction-bound Lucian Freud nude portrait may be asleep, but the painter’s market is wide awake and keenly watching the rare lot. Titled Sleeping by the Lion Carpet, the painting could fetch between £25 million and £35 million ($33.4 million to $46.8 million) when it hits the block on June 24 at Sotheby’s in London—to the astonishment of its subject, Sussex resident Sue Tilley. The model and frequent Freud muse told BBC Radio Sussex that she was “flummoxed” by the market fervor. “I can’t quite believe it’s happening,” she said. According to Tilley, she met Freud “by luck” in 1993 through a mutual acquaintance, the fashion designer and performance artist Leigh Bowery,...

Valentine Willie, a lawyer by training who spent his career promoting contemporary Southeast Asian art as a curator and galleriest, died on June 9 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He was 71. The news was reported by the Malaysian website The Star. Willie was born in Sabah, a state on the norther part of the island of Borneo, in 1954. He studied law at University College London in the ‘70s. In a profile published in Nikkei Asia days before his death, Willie reminisced about finding refuge from the cold London winters in the city’s free art museums. “The National Gallery was empty, pretty much; nobody taking selfies for sure. I found a comfortable chair, and I would sit and do my homework. . . . Michaelangelo,...

Good Day! Pace CEO Marc Glimcher announces plan to downsize its London branch. Influential South-East Asian dealer and curator Valentine Francis Willie has died at 71. Experts in Italy accidentally mistook a three for an eight, and misdated an important, 14th-century Madonna and Child painting, now up for auction. The Headlines IT’S ME, NOT YOU. Uncertainty still reigns a week after Pace galleryannounced it was cutting roughly 50 jobs and 50 artists. Layoffs have hit nearly every department and are “an ongoing process,” a gallery spokesperson told ARTnews, and which artists are being dropped remains unclear.

Over the past 70 years, pioneering abstract painter Samia Halaby has dedicated herself to examining how we see, how plants grow, how towns are organized, and how abstraction has developed across cultures. The Palestinian-American artist works, as she says, with “both eyes open, to glean principles from nature.” Her paintings are a reflection of this relentless investigation. Halaby was born in Jerusalem in 1936 and lived as a child in Jaffa. During the Nakba of 1948, her family was among the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians displaced when the state of Israel was established. They lived in Beirut, Lebanon, for three years before moving to the United States in 1951. Halaby identifies with Marxist...

When we think of tarot cards, there’s a standout that probably pops to mind right away: the Rider-Waite-Smith deck. It was illustrated by British occultist and artist Pamela Coleman Smith, and more than 100 years after its publication, it remains the most widely used deck by readers. But the cards are far from being the first. Later this month, The Morgan Library & Museum presents Tarot! Renaissance Symbols, Modern Visions, which delves into this centuries-old tradition of divination. The exhibition celebrates some of the earliest examples alongside modern artists’ versions. Three surviving decks from the 15th century, commissioned by the Dukes of Milan, tap into the lively Italian court culture that...

ANTALYA, TURKEY—Hürriyet Daily News reports that five additional letters in the Sidetic alphabet have been identified, bringing the total to 31. The letters belong to the lost language once spoken in Side, an ancient port city in Anatolia. Sidetic is related to Anatolia’s Lycian and Carian languages. Feriştah Alanyalı of Anadolu University and her colleagues identified the letters in bilingual inscriptions containing 30 to 40 lines of text that they recently unearthed at the site. “The scarcity of inscriptions and the fact that most consist of only one or two lines make decipherment difficult,” Alanyalı said. Scholars generally agree that the words “Siruawn” and “Siruawan” refer to the city...

The New Museum will hold the largest-ever survey exhibition of works by filmmaker and multimedia artist Arthur Jafa this September, the institution announced on Tuesday, June 9. Titled I Am Tony in honor of the late jazz drummer Tony Williams, the exhibition will fill two floors of the New Museum's recently expanded Manhattan building in a showcase of works from Jafa's nearly four-decade career interrogating “Black being.” The survey, scheduled to open on September 24, will run through January 4, 2027. I Am Tony will feature some of Jafa's most iconic works, including “Love is the Message, The Message is Death” (2016), a video montage set to Kanye West's “Ultralight Beam” that...

KIEL, GERMANY—Headless skeletons have been discovered in a ditch at Vráble, a Neolithic site in southwestern Slovakia occupied between 5250 and 4940 B.C., according to a Live Science report. Traces of more than 300 houses grouped into three neighborhoods have been found at Vráble. The ditch containing the skeletons, including four pairs of people and a mass burial of at least 77 individuals, surrounded one of these neighborhoods. Only one child’s skeleton in the group retained its head. Cut marks made with sharp tools found on the bones indicate that the bodies had been decapitated, but the beheading is thought to have been a postmortem ritual, and not an act of violence, said Katharina Fuchs of Kiel...

By Victoria Thomas When John Lennon met Yoko Ono in 1966, he had no idea who she was. More remarkably, Yoko was equally unaware of John. This neutral introduction seems impossible for us today, especially for children of the 1960s. But defying mere nostalgia, The Broad meets this challenge with Yoko Ono: Music of the Mind, Ono's first LA museum show, which offers a full season of multi-arts media programming, including the installation of seven digital antiwar billboards across Los Angeles....

The Guggenheim Museum in New York announced today that it would host livestreams of a selection of World Cup matches on Friday afternoons this summer. The livestreams will take place at Frank Pub’s, a pop-up at the Wright, the Guggenheim’s restaurant. In a release, the museum described the program as a way to create “a space for people to grab a bite, watch the World Cup, and share in the excitement together.” The experience will be free to members and free with that day’s admission ticket to the museum. Opening an hour before each game begins, the museum will show the following matches: Canada vs. Bosnia and Herzegovina (June 12), US vs. Australia (June 19), Norway vs. France (June 26), Match 88 in...

The Phillips Collection in Washington, DC, has announced that it is the recipient of a seismic $15 million gift from the Sherman Fairchild Foundation, the largest in the institution’s 105-year history. The foundation has donated regularly and significantly to the Phillips since the 1990s, with past gifts supporting a variety of initiatives as well as […]

Contemporary art has increasingly turned towards the edges of perception, where science, philosophy and lived experience begin to blur. Across installation, moving-image and immersive sculpture, artists are no longer content to represent the world as it appears; instead, they construct environments in which alternative ways of knowing can be felt, sensed and momentarily inhabited. In this expanded field, Laure Prouvost has become a defining figure, developing a practice that transforms language into sensation and thought into atmosphere. Her work resists fixed interpretation, instead unfolding through humour, fragmentation and poetic association. With We Felt A Star Dying opening at the Grand Palais, she...

As Brendon Burton continues to pursue the strange corners of rural North America, the Portland-based photographer has discovered a newfound interest in the people who once inhabited them. No longer entirely devoid of human figures, his isolated landscapes step into the walls of abandoned homes and provide a setting for enigmatic narratives. Burton’s quiet introduction to life through the presence of domestic, intimate objects allows the viewer to piece together a speculative story about their previous owners. From a pair of worn boots and aged portraits to a patterned quilt resting upon a bed that was once made for the last time, photography introduces an element of permanence, preserving existence while...

Negli ultimi anni il paesaggio industriale è tornato al centro dell’attenzione di artisti, fotografi e istituzioni. Non soltanto come testimonianza di una stagione produttiva conclusa, ma come patrimonio visivo capace di raccontare le trasformazioni economiche e urbane che hanno attraversato l’Europa dalla seconda metà del Novecento a oggi. In questo contesto si inserisce High Voltage, la mostra curata da Nicola Bigliardi presso StayOnBoard Art Gallery, che mette in dialogo le opere di Gabriele Basilico, Andrea Chiesi e Günter Pusch.

From the beaded phrases of Jeffrey Gibson’s sculptural weavings to Jaune Quick-to-See Smith’s canoe series to Raven Halfmoon’s fingerprint-textured tributes, a new exhibition marks the largest presentation of American Indigenous work in the U.K. to date. Opening next week, Hold to This Earth at Yorkshire Sculpture Park features nearly 70 pieces by 38 artists, which in turn represent 35 Tribal Nations. “(The artists) reference and honour ancestral knowledge whilst being steadfastly contemporary, asserting a powerful presence and countering narratives of erasure that too often position Indigenous cultures only in terms of the past,” says a statement from Tia Collection, from which the pieces are drawn....

This microscopic view of buried basalt shows olivine basalt recovered from the Eshel Ya‘aqov borehole, examined as a thin section under polarized light to reveal its minerals and texture. JERUSALEM, ISRAEL—According to a statement released by the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, analysis of 780,000-year-old basalt artifacts unearthed at the site of Gesher Benot Ya’aqov in northern Israel shows that hominins selected specific basalt sources when crafting particular tools. Tzahi Golan and Yoav Ben Dor of the Geological Survey of Israel and Naama Goren-Inbar of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem analyzed the basalt artifacts, which were recovered from different archaeological layers at the site. They...

Fragmented iron helmets with traces of paint and patina SAN VINCENTE DEL RASPEIG, SPAIN—According to a Gizmodo report, a new evaluation, including radiocarbon dating, of five of the 43 helmets discovered under about 20 feet of water off the northeastern coast of Spain in 1990 indicates that they were made between the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries, and not during the Roman period as had been previously thought. “At the beginning, it was difficult to place them in a specific era because they featured traits that recalled both Late Roman models and potential medieval pieces inspired by classical traditions,” said Manuel Frallicciardi of the University of Alicante. Political turmoil from the...

BARCELONA, SPAIN—IFL Science reports that analysis of dental calculus samples taken from 18 Neanderthals, 745 modern humans, and 96 great apes suggests that Neanderthals consumed insects about as frequently as chimpanzees. DNA from flies and mosquitoes identified in the Neanderthal dental calculus may have been consumed with rotting meat laced with maggots or insect eggs. “In this regard, our results may support a recent hypothesis that attributes the elevated values of nitrogen isotopes reported for Neanderthals to their regular consumption of insect larvae in animal corpses,” said Manuel Piñero of the Institute of Evolutionary Biology in Spain. The amount of insect DNA recovered from modern human...

The Serpentine Pavilion is one of the most anticipated events in the international architecture calendar. Since 2000, the annual commission in London’s Kensington Gardens has invited leading architects to design a temporary pavilion on the Serpentine Galleries’ lawn. Its inaugural structure was designed by the late Zaha Hadid, with subsequent contributions coming from the likes of Herzog & de Meuron, Oscar Niemeyer, Sou Fujimoto and others. The project has become a leading platform for experimentation and innovation, offering visitors the chance to experience cutting-edge design in a public setting. 2026 is a landmark year for the Serpentine, marking a quarter of a century since Hadid’s first commission...

Alla cerimonia di premiazione del Nikon Photo Contest a Tokyo nell’ottobre 2025, una giovane fotografa cinese ha attirato la mia attenzione. Si chiama Fang Xianhui e, con la sua opera “Mom’s scent”, si è distinta tra i partecipanti di 180 Paesi, vincendo lo Special Encouragement Award nella categoria foto singola. I giudici hanno definito la scena di cottura del pane al vapore, scattata in un villaggio rurale dello Shanxi, come un “campione di emozioni che colpisce dritto al cuore”: nessuna narrazione grandiosa, nessuna tecnica abbagliante, ma solo la più semplice essenza della vita quotidiana. Ciò che mi ha incuriosito ancora di più è che non era la prima volta che calcava un palcoscenico...

Al Magazzino del Sale di Cervia, la seconda edizione di Endless Summer conferma la solidità di un progetto che sceglie di sottrarsi alla grammatica convenzionale della mostra collettiva per assumere, piuttosto, la forma aperta di una costellazione curatoriale. Ideato da MAGMA APS e sviluppato come ciclo triennale (2025-2027), il progetto prende in prestito dal celebre documentario di Bruce Brown l’immagine impossibile di un’estate perpetua, trasformandola in una metafora percettiva e mentale: non una stagione, ma uno stato di sospensione in cui desiderio, memoria e dissolvenza convivono simultaneamente.

Between 2010 and 2023, more than 1,243 council-run youth centres closed, according to UNISON. Meanwhile, one in three people in the UK say their local areas are in decline, with 13,000 high street shops closing in 2024. Across the country, council restrictions, diminishing spaces, gentrification and enduring prejudices see many communities under threat of erasure. Photographer Sophie Green presents a vivid portrait of the communities, subcultures and social gatherings that shape contemporary Britain, forming a vital archive of a changing nation. For over a decade, she has documented how rituals and traditions build connection, belonging and shared identity. From the adrenaline thrill of banger racing, to the...

Dearest by Zeinab Diomande is a zine presenting a collection of paintings that, while not a formal series, share a cohesive visual language exploring themes of liquidity and the passage of time, achieved through the use of thinned paint and water. The pieces employ texture as a storytelling device, reflecting the rituals and ceremonies of the artist’s alter egos within imagined worlds.

L’architettura quattrocentesca di Palazzo Soranzo Van Axel a Venezia si fa teatro di un dialogo vibrante, eppure straordinariamente eloquente con le opere di Su Xiaobai. La mostra raccoglie trentacinque lavori che ripercorrono la parabola creativa dell’artista, dai primi esperimenti con la lacca risalenti al 2003 fino alle sue più recenti evoluzioni. L’esposizione è curata da Stephen Little, curatore di arte cinese e capo dei dipartimenti di arte cinese, coreana e del sud – sudest asiatico al LACMA.
