SHELBURNE, VT.- Shelburne Museum presents the work of renowned British artist Paul Scott in the exhibition Confected, Borrowed & Blue: Transferware by Paul Scott that includes provocative reinterpretations of 19th-century transferware from Shelburne Museum’s permanent collection along with a work commissioned for the exhibition. “Exhibiting contemporary work that is inspired or influenced by the collections is a longstanding tradition at Shelburne,” said Kory Rogers, Francie and John Downing Senior Curator of American Art. “Paul ...

Marina Abramovic wants to live, laugh, love Auction features 235 lots, representing the finest names in majolica production CasildART Contemporary have inaugurated new gallery space on Connaught Street in London with group show Marina Abramovic in New York, July 25, 2024. (Victor Llorente/The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- Marina Abramovic stood and faced the ocean on Fire Island. For a long minute, her arms rose symmetrically from her sides until her body formed a T shape. Her long red dress was stark against the waves. Her palms faced forward. Abramovic’s face was not visible, but it was conceivable that she was screaming. The performance artist once screamed for three hours, until she couldn’t anymore (“Freeing the Voice,” 1976); once yelled into her ...

NEW YORK, NY.- ‘Et In Arcadia Ego’ takes the work of late American master Leon Golub (1922-2004) as a starting point to consider artists’ approaches to issues of conflict and uncertainty. Conceived by Rashid Johnson, this exhibition consists of a solo presentation of Golub’s paintings from the ... More Fables for our Time at the Design Museum. © Rob Harris for the Design Museum. LONDON.- The Design Museum today unveils a major public commission that uses folktales and a new collection of emoji to examine humanity’s relationship with the natural environment. Fables for our Time is a new 15m triptych on the museum’s second floor. It features three panels, each of which tells a particular story about an ecosystem that is vital to a thriving planet: the ecosystems of bees, coral and mushrooms. The ...

More Assyrian exhibits at the Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures at the University of Chicago, in the city’s Hyde Park neighborhood, July 17, 2024. (Michelle Litvin/The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- One June morning, I went to see what the tourists were up to in Chicago, where I live. My mission was to join them while adhering to a strict travel budget. So I started with a free Chicago Greeter tour of the downtown Loop, ground zero for visitors and home to popular attractions like Millennium Park and the Art Institute of ...

More Wolfgang Rihm, prolific contemporary classical music composer, dies at 72 Francine Pascal, creator of 'Sweet Valley High' book series, dies at 92 Will AI upend white-collar work? Consider the Hollywood editor. Wolfgang Rihm in 1987. Rihm, a composer whose forceful, shape-shifting output reinvigorated contemporary classical music, died on Saturday, July 27, 2024, in Ettlingen, Germany. He was 72. (Keith Meyers/The New York Times) BERLIN.- Wolfgang Rihm, a composer whose forceful, shape-shifting output reinvigorated contemporary classical music, died Saturday in Ettlingen, Germany. He was 72. His death, in a hospice outside the city of Karlsruhe, where he lived, was announced in a statement by his publisher, Universal Edition. It did not specify a cause, but Rihm had been treated for cancer since 2017. His illness and ... More Francine Pascal, the creator of the original series, "Sweet Valley High" and author of the new book, “Sweet Valley Confidential", in New York, April 13, 2011. (Ozier Muhammad/The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- Francine Pascal, a former soap-opera scriptwriter from the New York City borough of Queens who conjured up an entire literary universe among the blue-eyed cheerleaders and square-jawed jocks of suburban Los Angeles, most notably in her long-running and mega-best-selling “Sweet Valley High” series of young-adult novels, died Sunday in Manhattan. She was 92. Her daughter Laurie Wenk-Pascal ... More Actors and writers won strict limits on artificial intelligence in last year’s contract negotiations, but other workers face a growing challenge. (Franco Zacha/The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- For most of his four-plus decades in Hollywood, Thomas R. Moore has worked as a picture editor on network television shows. During a typical year, his work followed a pattern: He would spend about a week and a half distilling hours of footage into the first cut of an episode, then two to three weeks incorporating feedback from the director, producers and the network. When the episode was done, he would receive ... More Qiu Xiaofei I In the Gallery I Xavier Hufkens More News Meadows Museum announces acquisition of two paintings by Baroque-era women artists DALLAS, TX.- The Meadows Museum, SMU, today announced that it has acquired two 17th-century works by women artists: a still life by Josefa de Ayala (c. 1630–1684) and a painted cell cross by María Josefa Sánchez (active 1639–1652). Ayala was a seminal figure in Iberian Baroque art who achieved recognition and numerous commissions during her lifetime, and was one of the few independent, documented women artists from the period. Together, the acquisitions are indicative of a vibrant artistic climate on the peninsula which did allow women some freedom of expression. Both were purchases made with funds from The Meadows Foundation, and both will be on view in the Meadows’ galleries by the fall. “We are thrilled to add these significant works to our collection,” said Amanda W. Dotseth, Linda P. and William A. Custard Director ... More Terry Powers opens September 5 at Dolby Chadwick Gallery SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Dolby Chadwick Gallery will present The Shimmering World, an exhibition of new paintings by Terry Powers. The importance of observation and painting from life is at the heart of Powers’ practice. He uses no technology that was not in place 600 years ago, never working from a photograph, always painting what is directly before his eyes. He paints people, places, and objects that he sees every day: his walk to work, his running routes, his studio, his living room. This body of work is an extension of an ongoing project of seeing and painting, a formal inquiry into observation and rendition. This body of work can be split into a grouping of interior paintings and more recent exterior paintings. Those who have spent a winter in Utah will know that the elements do not have the patience for painting, so Powers is relegated ... More You won't see them at the Olympics, but these speed puzzlers are world-class LONDON.- In the winter of 1966, The New York Times printed a story about the jigsaw-puzzle boom sweeping the United States, quoting a Barnard College professor who said, “The reason that people do puzzles is nothing more complicated than compulsion.” Almost 60 years later, puzzle culture has exploded far beyond mere compulsion: It’s a thriving community with online stars and an international tournament drawing thousands of nimble-fingered competitors. That tournament, the World Jigsaw Puzzle Championship, will hold its fourth edition this September in Valladolid, Spain, a city more than 130 miles northwest of Madrid. Participants from more than 75 countries will race to complete multiple puzzles for a modest cash prize and bragging rights over six days. One of the more well-known competitors in Spain will be Karen Kavett, ... More Alanis Morissette is not aloof NEW YORK, NY.- If Alanis Morissette’s albums were children, “Jagged Little Pill” would be the spoiled one — universally beloved, lavishly celebrated, extravagantly fed. She has a soft spot for her second born, “Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie,” which was reissued with new material last month for its 25th anniversary. (She plays from the album on her current tour, which has dates through September.) Morissette was only 25 when “Supposed” came out, in 1999, but “Jagged” had made her a battle-hardened veteran of the It Girl industrial complex. She had hoped success would bring communion with other stars of popular and alternative music; instead, she found herself isolated and creatively drained. “I felt like I was at odds with the credo of the ’90s,” she said. “I thought there would be more intimacy and vulnerability and kumbaya, ... More Are these real plotlines from 'And Just Like That'? NEW YORK, NY.- This week, mysterious neon flyers began to appear around Brooklyn and Manhattan. At first glance, they looked like the standard filming notices that are often taped up in New York to inform passersby that they could end up in the background of a “Law & Order” episode. These notices appeared to be for “And Just Like That ” HBO’s fever dream of a follow-up to “Sex and the City.” But upon closer inspection, they advertised plotlines even more ludicrous than the ones that have appeared on the show. “Project details: At brunch with the girls, Carrie reveals that she is Garfield the cat,” one reads. Another: “Carrie goes on a bad date with Mr. Bean (the character) and then accidentally sends him a nude.” The posters’ provenance was unknown and, to many online, vexing. People ... More In New York, Van Cleef becomes the 'fairy godmother' of dance NEW YORK, NY.- Last fall, the New York City dance scene was taken over by a jeweler: Van Cleef & Arpels. The company’s Dance Reflections, a festival of contemporary dance, lasted from October to December and sprawled across the city’s theaters. Lavishly advertised and well attended, it made a big enough splash that the ripples can still be felt. “Dance Reflections is the best thing to happen to the New York dance scene in the last 25 years,” said Jay Wegman, executive director of NYU Skirball, a principal site for the festival. The big splash might have been anticipated from reports of previous iterations in London, Los Angeles and Hong Kong. More surprising, perhaps, were the ripples — Dance Reflections’ continuing sponsorship of performances through this past spring at Skirball, New York City Center and the Joyce Theater. ... More Erica Ash of 'Mad TV' and 'Survivor's Remorse' dies at 46 NEW YORK, NY.- Erica Ash, an actress and comedian known for her roles in the satirical reality show “Real Husbands of Hollywood” and on the sketch comedy show “Mad TV,” died Sunday in Los Angeles. She was 46. The cause was cancer, her mother, Diann Ash, said in a statement Monday. Ash began her career in the 2000s as a cast member on the sketch comedy shows “The Big Gay Sketch Show” and “Mad TV,” where she impersonated celebrities like Michelle Obama and Condoleezza Rice. She went on to appear in several dozen TV shows and films, including “Scary Movie V.” She landed a recurring role on BET’s “The Real Husbands of Hollywood,” a parody of reality TV shows that starred Kevin Hart. On Starz’s “Survivor’s Remorse,” a drama-comedy about a young basketball star’s rise to fame, she played the main character’s ... More 'Six Characters' review: Making the case against a white-centric theater NEW YORK, NY.- Nothing makes some theatergoers as skittish as the specter of audience participation. Toying with that apprehension, Phillip Howze has designed a preperformance interaction for people coming to see his confrontational new play, “Six Characters,” at Lincoln Center Theater. As part of what his script calls the overture, each person entering the Claire Tow Theater is meant to be asked, “Would you like to participate?,” yet given no details on which to base their answer. The query turns out to provide a frame for “Six Characters.” A metatheatrical nod to Luigi Pirandello’s canonical 1921 drama, “Six Characters in Search of an Author,” Howze’s play is an indictment of the white-centric American theater and a warning about passivity in the face of looming fascism. Are you willing to participate in reshaping the theater and the ... More A new path in Tuscany offers rest, beauty and an escape from the crowds NEW YORK, NY.- In Italy’s Tuscany region, the Val d’Orcia, with its rolling fields and untouched landscape beneath the dormant volcano of Monte Amiata, seems created for photo ops. Within it, the town of Pienza is one of the finest examples of Renaissance architecture, designed by the famed Bernardo Gambarelli, better known as Bernardo Rossellino, in white travertine marble and surrounded by palazzi, which he also built. This summer, a new path leads visitors from the town’s main piazza to the countryside, a journey of a little less than 2 miles. Along its length they’ll find 28 benches made of travertine marble created by well-known artists. Each bench is both a place to rest and take in the sweeping views of the Italian countryside, and a work of art shaped by the maker’s hand: One suggests a throne, another carries an image ... More PhotoGalleries Gabriele Münter TARWUK Awol Erizku Leo Villareal Flashback On a day like today, French painter and sculptor Jean Dubuffet was born July 31, 1901. Jean Philippe Arthur Dubuffet (31 July 1901 - 12 May 1985) was a French painter and sculptor. His idealistic approach to aesthetics embraced so called "low art" and eschewed traditional standards of beauty in favor of what he believed to be a more authentic and humanistic approach to image-making. In this image: A young lady looks at "Paysage charbonneux" by French artist Jean Dubuffet dated 1946, and valued at 3.5 million Marks (1.5 million Dollars) at the 34th International fair for modern art "Art Cologne" in Cologne, Germany, Friday, November 3, 2000. © 1996 - 2024 Founder: Ignacio Villarreal (1941 - 2019) Editor & Publisher: Jose Villarreal Art Director: Juan José Sepúlveda Ramírez Writer: Ofelia Zurbia Betancourt
