More Lorna Simpson's 'Earth & Sky' debuts at Hauser & WirthNEW YORK, NY.- With Earth & Sky, Lorna Simpson debuts a new body of work exploring our relationshipsphysical and metaphysicalto unseen forces that work upon us individually and generationally, alternately challenging and empowering our sense of our own humanity.

More Second solo show in Turin by the British artist Delaine Le Bas opens at Quartz StudioTURIN.- Quartz Studio is presenting The Death of the Pythia, the second solo show in Turin by the British artist Delaine Le Bas (Worthing, UK, 1965). The Death of the Pythia is the title of an irreverent story by the Swiss writer (and painter) Friedrich Dürrenmatt. Published in 1976, its main character, Pannychis XI, the priestess of Delphi, tall and thin like almost all the Pythias that came before her, reveals the true purpose of her prophesying: to mock her faithful, displaying their vacuous credulity. The Pythias character is clearly defined in the classical myth and humorously interpreted by Dürrenmatt. She fits perfectly in the repertoire of female figures that Le Bas has gathered over the years. On the occasion of Artissima 2024, like the Pythias prophesying in the limestone cave of the sanctuary of Delphi in Greece, Le Bas, an English ...

Words are often the starting point for most of the artist's practice, most notably in her iconic Shout Out paintings ...

Chu assumes the role of host by designing an immersive installation that envelops the senses, intervening in the tenth-floor space at Para Site, to welcome the audience into an interactive stage for performances and happenings. ...
