Created during the last years of conceptual artist 's practice in 2019, "ATTACHED BY EBB & FLOW" was first installed at Museo Nivola in Sardinia as an homage to the island and the surrounding sea.

Weiner translated his sculptures into numerous languages so that they could be understood in the contexts of their institutional and public presentations around the world. Initially, "ATTACHED BY EBB & FLOW" was displayed simultaneously in English, Sardu, and Italian. The work resonates with the history and social context of the island.

"ATTACHED BY EBB & FLOW" is on view through December 28, 2024 at in the exhibition "Lawrence Weiner: ANYTHING ADDED TO SOMETHING."

Now open at : "Widows of the Wind," conceived and curated by features new paintings by the artist in dialogue with photographs by .

The exhibition furthers Olowska's exploration of evocative artistic and curatorial practices. In the gallery, a tableau vivant weaves together reflections on fashion, commerce, painting, photography, and the atmospheric forces that shape these realms.

For "Widows of the Wind," Olowska has extended and reshaped the dialogue between her own work and that of Turbeville, first articulated in her 2023 exhibition "Resonance" at Kurimanzutto in Mexico City in collaboration with MUUS Collection. If Resonance communed with Turbeville’s work like fluid, wavering reverberations, the artistic conversation present in Widows of the Wind can be read through the refractive distortion of a sheet of European winter ice.

Congratulations to Pace artist , who will represent France at La Biennale di Venezia in 2026.

Following a selection committee organized by the Institut français, Yto Barrada has been chosen to represent France at the 61st International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia in 2026.
The decision of the committee, chaired by Claire Le Restif, director of the Centre d'art contemporain d'Ivry – le Crédac, was approved by Jean-Noël Barrot, Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, and Rachida Dati, Minister of Culture.
The jury selected Barrada "for her multidisciplinary practice that unites various artistic and social communities in search of a new utopia. An iconoclastic researcher, a borderless and holistic artist, Yto Barrada reinvents 'social sculpture' through the lens of alternative pedagogies and transforms the canons of modernism into a plural garden. From Paris to Tangier, and through New York, she traces a unique cartography that gathers new voices—unseen, fragile, historical, or forgotten—to share their narratives. These are just some of the reasons that led the jury to invite Yto Barrada to unfold her worlds within the space of the French Pavilion and share them with the audiences of the Venice Biennale."

Last chance to view: Marina Perez Simão's solo exhibition "Diffusion" closes Saturday, November 23, 2024 at Mendes Wood DM in Paris.

Simão infuses the gallery space with the same sensory energy as her studio. The show spans two floors of the gallery viewers are confronted with an overwhelming and paradoxical desire to consume all the paintings at once.

Just as perfume diffuses across a room, so does the energy of Simão’s paintings, washing over the viewer with their particular sense of expansiveness. Simão drew inspiration from 19th-century panorama painting, exploring how painting captured vastness and movement before the invention of cinema. She first learned about these panoramas during her first year at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in a course on the relationship between painting and cinema. This early study of time, light, and movement remains a central focus of her work two decades later.

Explore the latter years of ’s life and career as one of the preeminent abstract artists working in post-war America in the exhibition “Adolph Gottlieb: Vital Images,” opening tonight, November 14, 2024.

“For Gottlieb around 60 is infinitely better than Gottlieb around 40, when he was doing those surrealist pictographs that marked his escape route from realism. From Gottlieb and others a case could be made for art as a middle-aged man's job, the artist coming into his prime, like a surgeon or a lawyer, in his fifties.”

In this text excerpt, contributed by art historian Pepe Karmel for the exhibition catalogue of our 2012 presentation “Adolph Gottlieb: Gravity, Suspension, Motion—Paintings 1954–1972,” an astute reflection on the evolving worldview and approach Gottlieb demonstrated over the course of his long career is apparent.

In this new series of paintings, uses abstraction to capture the brief moments and breaks between contractions during childbirth, which can be a simultaneously out-of-body experience and a thoroughly visceral, embodied one.

Taking its title from what astronauts describe as "the overview effect"—the experience of seeing Earth from space—Hollowell's Overview Effect paintings give a bold first impression: searing our retinas with the force of bright color, extreme lighting, symmetry, and strong geometries that take on larger-than-life proportions.
