The retrospective includes over 300 works spanning a half century of creation beginning with the “Cirque Calder” of the 1920s to the monumental sculptures that revolutionized the 1960s and 1970s.

Calder’s mobiles, installed within Frank Gehry’s architecture, create a celestial dance within the space.

“For me Fela was to music what Picasso was to art. With his need to put his art out there at any cost–beatings and arrests included. He was an avatar.”

Within the universal circumference that he sees as art, Edward Tyler Nahem was a lead producer of the Broadway show and Royal National Theatre hit, Fela!, which received 11 Tony Award nominations and 3 Olivier Award nominations. His co-producers of this phenomenal extravaganza were Jay-Z, Will Smith & Jada Pinkett Smith, and Questlove, among others.

Fela! is based on the life and music of the unique talent Fela Kuti, a Nigerian musician and political activist. As THE innovator of Afrobeat, Fela influenced and was sampled by generations of hip-hop and R&B artists, including Nas, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, and Alicia Keys.

Fela is the first African musician ever awarded a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, announced on December 19. He is known as the “Black President” for his role as both a musical and a political trailblazer. He now joins an elite group of legends like The Beatles, Johnny Cash, John Coltrane, Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Marley and Frank Sinatra.

Kudos Fela; it’s been a long time coming.

“I see myself as the heir to an enormous, great, rich culture of painting, and of an art in general, which we have lost, but which nevertheless is an obligation. In such a situation, it’s difficult not to want to restore that culture, or—just as bad—simply to give up, to degenerate.”
 — Gerhard Richter, 1986

Since the inception of Edward Tyler Nahem, Gerhard Richter has been central to our program. Now 93, Richter has embraced many concepts in his work and continually thwarts categorization.
On October 17, 2025, the Fondation Louis Vuitton opened a major retrospective dedicated to him—an unprecedented survey spanning over sixty years of his artistic production. Richter’s work was first presented at the Fondation’s inaugural exhibition in 2014, marking the beginning of a sustained dialogue with the institution. This new retrospective, encompassing 270 works spanning six decades, offers a panoramic view of Richter’s evolving engagement with abstraction, figuration, memory, and perception.
The exhibition remains on view through March 2, 2026.

“My whole area of art has always been addressed to working with other people,” Rauschenberg reflected. “Ideas are not real estate.”

Collaboration and exchange were always critical to Rauschenberg; involving not merely fellow artists, but also viewers as well as taking place in various countries. The studio served as a physical site where these ideas were executed. In recognition of the Robert Rauschenberg Centennial in 2025 and his profound artistic legacy, Edward Tyler Nahem honors the artist and his artistic process.
