Mirroring: Lucio Fontana and Michelangelo Pistoletto is currently on view at Prada Rong Zhai from 20 March to 15 June 2025. Curated by Sook-Kyung Lee, Director of the Whitworth, University of Manchester, and presented in collaboration with Fondazione Lucio Fontana and Cittadellarte – Fondazione Pistoletto, the exhibition brings these two pioneering Italian artists into dialogue for the first time.

Spanning works from the 1950s onwards, the show highlights their shared exploration of materiality, conceptualism, and performative space, as well as the metaphysical dimensions of their practice. Fontana’s Concetto spaziale (1948) and Pistoletto’s Quadro specchiante (1961) exemplify their radical departures from traditional artistic paradigms, rejecting conventional materials and methods in pursuit of new expressive possibilities. The exhibition also examines the three-dimensionality of their work and its inherent performative aspects, offering fresh insight into their enduring impact on contemporary art.

Ena Swansea's backlit waves of Los Angeles is included in 'HOW'S MY PAINTING?', a new exhibition now open at Deichtorhallen, Hamburg, presenting 200 works by over 70 artists from the Falckenberg Collection. ⁠
⁠
Known for her atmospheric, layered works, Swansea’s approach aligns with the exhibition’s exploration of painting in its many forms. Her work in the show sits alongside that of influential figures such as Nicole Eisenman, Mike Kelley, Raymond Pettibon, Michel Majerus, Joyce Pensato, Philip Guston, John Baldessari and Ouattara Watts. The exhibition acknowledges her distinctive contribution to the medium and reinforces Harald Falckenberg’s legacy of recognizing visionary artists early in their careers.⁠

We are pleased to announce that Gavin Turk's Pile is now on display at Museum Voorlinden as part of The Life of Things exhibition, running until 2 November 2025. Pile is a sculpture of black rubbish bags that explores rubbish as a narrative device - telling stories of use, production, and disposal, which in turn reveal insights into who we are and how we live.

We are delighted to announce that José Parlá ’s La Habana Sunset (2022), from his series Ciclos: Blooms of Mold, has entered the esteemed Brooklyn Museum’s permanent collection as a gift in celebration of the institution’s 200th anniversary.

Currently on view in Brooklyn Abstractions: Four Artists, Four Walls, La Habana Sunset is presented alongside works by Maya Hayuk, Kennedy Yanko, and the late Leon Polk Smith. These four artists, each with profound connections to Brooklyn, reimagine the iconic Beaux-Arts Court through their distinct and visually immersive installations.

Duality (Reflection) (2022) by Hank Willis Thomas is currently on view at the Vancouver Art Gallery’s Offsite: Hank Willis Thomas, which has recently been extended until June 2025.

We are proud to have loaned this striking stainless-steel sculpture, which isolates a single charged gesture—an extended arm forming a sign that shifts between victory, peace, and derision. Part of Thomas’s Punctum series, inspired by Roland Barthes, Duality (Reflection) explores the fluidity of meaning through recontextualized imagery.

Presented alongside other works from the series, it invites viewers to reconsider how visual narratives shape perceptions.

In a world where art transcends traditional boundaries, José Parlá stands as a fearless urban visionary. Born from a rich cultural mosaic and fueled by the pulse of city streets, Parlá transforms concrete and canvas into living narratives that challenge our perception of history and modernity. His monumental murals – like the tribute at One World Trade Center – and dynamic installations capture the raw resilience of communities and the layered echoes of urban landscapes.
