Exhibition at Kunstmuseen Krefeld spans five decades of Marion Baruch's workKREFELD.- With the exhibition Marion Baruch: Social Fabric, the Kunstmuseen Krefeld in Haus Lange is presenting the work of an outstanding artist who has only started to receive long overdue recognition in the last few years. Born in Timişoara, Romania, in 1929, she studied painting in Bucharest, Jerusalem, and Rome; lived in England and repeatedly in Paris; and ultimately settled with her family in Gallarate near Milan. Baruchs artistic work is characterized by the political and social upheavals of the twentieth century, addressing themes such as feminism, consumer criticism, and migration. She began working collaboratively at an early stage, repeatedly involving a wide variety of cultural workers in her projects and combining art, design, and everyday experiences in a highly individual way. Textiles as a material, with their many different meanings, ... More Galleria Continua opens an exhibition of new and recent work by Sabrina MezzaquiSAN GIMIGNANO.- Galleria Continua is hosting in its San Gimignano spaces the exhibition by Sabrina Mezzaqui titled Raccogliere parole (Collecting words). Held on the ground floor of the former cinema theater where the gallery is located, the exhibition features a substantial number of works, mostly new and created over the past year.

Her work is characterized by a dialogic, interpretive approach that generates partial epiphanies for sharing. Her pieces crystallize the passage of time through a manual process fueled by repeated gestures; they often ... More Foreign & Domestic opens the first exhibition curated by the artist Harris RosenblumNEW YORK, NY.- Minotaurs is the first exhibition curated by the artist Harris Rosenblum. It springs from his interest in networks of communication and logistics, and their effect on the material world. Rosenblum is interested in objects that these networks might produce. Objects that can be virtual, physical or relational. Even objects that are so distributed and extensive that they are best thought of as hyperobjects; planetary systems of logic with the agency to act on a world. New entities and new exotics to be mined by artists working with and through emergent microcultures, fantasy lore, esoteric maker communities, and human-machine interfaces. There is a devotional and handwrought quality to these artists efforts to give physical form to the impalpable. Minotaurs floats on incipient currents in the collective unconscious, new sites of encounter ... More Sandro Visca's exhibition "FRACTURAE" opens at Museo Carlo Bilotti in RomeROME.- From October 12, 2024, to January 12, 2025, the Museo Carlo Bilotti Aranciera di Villa Borghese hosts the exhibition FRACTURAE, showcasing the recent works of renowned Italian artist Sandro Visca.

More Exhibition brings together a selection of over 70 works by Julie SpeedMARFA, TX.- Ballroom Marfa is presenting the fall 2024 exhibition from Julie Speed, The Suburbs of Eden. The exhibition brings together a selection of over 70 works on view including paintings, collages, and gouaches from Julie Speed, created over multiple decades. Speed, whose work is often compared to that of the Surrealists, Dada, and Renaissance painters, has an artistic style that struggles to fit neatly into any art-historical period. The work is both outside of reality and tied to it. An astute draftsperson, Speed depicts strong, often non-gendered figures inhabiting dream-like spaces, offering comfort in the shared nature of our inner thoughts. Speed confronts universally shared experiences and stories, clothing her figures in humanity itself. Torsos and limbs are transformed into scenes of war, politics, architecture, and ...

Flashback On a day like today, Venetian sculptor Antonio Canova died October 13, 1822. Antonio Canova (1 November 1757 - 13 October 1822) was an Italian sculptor from the Republic of Venice who became famous for his marble sculptures that delicately rendered nude flesh. The epitome of the neoclassical style, his work marked a return to classical refinement after the theatrical excesses of Baroque sculpture. In this image: An assistant shows a handmade book portraying works by Neoclassical sculptor Antonio Canova, with a dedication to former US President Barack Obama in the writing of "The Star-Spangled Banner", in Rome, on Thursday, July 2, 2009.
