dear designboom reader,
this summer season, museums and galleries around the world are hosting a variety of exhibitions to enjoy during your next art outing. in new york, david zwirner gallery presents a series of works by barbara kruger that raise questions about consumerism, power, gender equality, role models, and political issues. in paris, the musée des arts décoratifs explores the oeuvre of italian couturière elsa schiaparelli and her collaborations with surrealist artists such as man ray, salvador dalí, jean cocteau, and meret oppenheim.
within the emblematic building of the former public tobacco factory in athens, NEON celebrates art in the public space by bringing together large-scale works by the likes of john bock, paul mccarthy and damien hirst among many others. also in greece, the DESTE foundation is hosting jeff koons’s much-anticipated project 'apollo' in its project space at the old slaughterhouse in hydra.
thanks for reading!
