David Hall Gallery opens an exhibition of early works by artist Ralph Coburn

Random Sequence, c. 1962, Oil on five canvas panels, 5 x 7’ as presented © Copyright 2024 David Hall Gallery LLC

WELLESLEY, MASS.- David Hall Gallery is presenting an exhibition of early works by the American artist Ralph Coburn, 1923 – 2018. Working across canvases, drawings, and collages between France and the United States, Ralph Coburn redefined the contours of abstract art through a substantial body of work spanning from the late 1940s to the late 1980s. In close dialogue with Ellsworth Kelly during their formative years in France, Coburn’s innovative approach deconstructed the traditional conventions of painting, dismantling its spatial logic and reimagining its interaction with the viewer. He was among the first postwar artists to question the very foundations of the medium and propose a serious rethinking of the painted canvas format. Yet, his “radical” inventions —from the Latin etymology radix (meaning “root”)— deserve renewed ... More

Solo exhibition of new work by Naomi Kawanishi Reis opens at Morgan Lehman Gallery
NEW YORK, NY.- Morgan Lehman Gallery is presenting Strange Light, a solo exhibition of new work by Naomi Kawanishi Reis. Through layers of color pencil, pigment prints, acrylic-washed washi cutouts, and semi-precious stones, Reis finds reprieve in the quiet moments of everyday life. The series particularly works through grief, an empty cavern left by loss, with the meditative repetition of manual labor. Drawn from photographs taken on her phone over the past decade, the works search for answers about unseen and unknowable worlds beyond the physical plane, imbuing the landscape with an intensified, animistic presence. The exhibition captures in shadows and glowing refracted light what Reis describes as “unheroic moments” – scenes that take shape in a reflection in a window or a passing glance at a roadside garden at dusk. ...

Xenia Hausner's first solo exhibition in the Americas opens at KÖNIG MEXICO CITY
MEXICO CITY.- KÖNIG MEXICO CITY is presenting ALL PASSION SPENT, Xenia Hausner’s first solo exhibition in the Americas. Hausner borrowed the exhibition title from the famous novel of the same name by British author Vita Sackville-West, who led an unconventional life and marriage during the 1930s, living apart from her husband and engaging in relationships with both men and women. The spirit of freedom and strength of both Sackville-West and her protagonists seems to flow through the works on display, which predominantly feature women. When asked why she mainly paints women, Hausner once explained: "Women are more interesting because they are more contradictory and complex. They have to be more capable, and therefore, they are more expressive." In the exhibition’s titular piece, we see two women in a close ... More

The Moths: CRAC Alsace opens a group exhibition
ALTKIRCH.- Read The Death of the Moth aloud on a late summer evening on the banks of the Nérac Ponds*; begin this reading with the words “Moths that fly by day are not properly to be called moths”**; immerse yourself in the rhythm and accents of the multiple voices of the readers gathered for this collective reading; later, reread The Waves by yourself while learning about the first title that Virginia Woolf gives to her writing project, The Moths, as announced in her diary: “Now the moths will I think fill out the skeleton which I dashed in here: the play-poem idea: the idea of some continuous stream, not solely of human thought, but of the ship, the night&c, all flowing together: intersected by the arrival of the bright moths”***. The sound of waves can be heard in the distance; a moth bangs against the glass; it seems we can perceive the movement ... More

Take a shine to the Dan Kennedy collection of precious metals at Heritage Auctions
DALLAS, TX.- In some cases, the old adage is true: bigger is better. Such is the case with the minerals of Dan Kennedy, a longtime collector whose trove is stuffed with specimens as impressive because of their sheer size as they are for their dazzling aesthetic beauty. The “big man with a big personality” believed in doing things in a ... wait for it ... big way — an approach that is visible throughout the magnificent offerings in Heritage’s October 30 The Kennedy Precious Metals Collection Signature® Auction. Kennedy was a celebrated California collector who collected magnificent minerals that were as big — he rarely took in anything less than 15 centimeters in length — as they were attractive. The upcoming auction will be one of three from his collection at Heritage, and will focus on his extraordinary subcollection of native crystallized metals. The others, including one coming up in M ... More

Betty Cuningham Gallery opens an exhibition of works by Jake Berthot
NEW YORK, NY.- Betty Cuningham Gallery presents the Wound is the Place the Light Enters, October 14 through December 6, 2024. The exhibition and online viewing room features 5 paintings and 8 works on paper by Jake Berthot. The selection focuses upon Skulls, a subject that Berthot returned to intermittently up to the time of his death in December of 2014. Throughout his 45-year career, Berthot held on to the geometry of the grid (all his sketches are grids) and the poetry of an indeterminate space. Twisting the grid to achieve several vanishing points allowed him to realize, as he would call it, “a Rothko-like space”. In his early abstract work, the central, deep space is framed by a painted edge. In the ‘80’s, the oval enters, tautly fixed by the grid, confronting the viewer as a portrait. After Berthot moves from the city in the 90’s, trees, ... More

Pola Museum of Art presents 'Philippe Parreno: Places and Spaces'
HAKONE.- The Pola Museum of Art presents Philippe Parreno’s Places and Spaces, his largest solo presentation to date in Japan. Encompassing his diverse practice, and spanning early works of the 1990s through to the present day, the exhibition unfolds in Pola Museum of Art’s Galleries 1, 2, 5 and the outdoor setting. Parreno’s groundbreaking approach to the presentation of works alters the paradigm of the exhibition, and poses profound questions regarding the ways in which art can be explored and interpreted. He challenges concepts of art and authorship, collaborating with artists, architects, musicians and scientists; and integrating time as a factor in its own right. Drawing on a variety of media including film, sound, objects, and text, but also advanced technologies including AI and robotics, allows him to deconstruct narrative ... More
