The Stuart Collection at UC San Diego has announced the inaugural Emerging Artists Program, bringing together a diverse group of contemporary creatives to expand the storied public art collection. RojoNegro, Max Hooper Schneider, and Precious Okoyomon have been selected to create permanent, site-specific works on the university’s campus. “We’re bringing in artists that have a language that will hopefully connect with what's going on on this campus around issues like social justice and climate change, identity and representation—all themes that had not been weaved into the collection in an explicit way,” told Jessica Berlanga Taylor, Curator & Director of the Stuart Collection, to The Art Newspaper.

Tonight marks Zegna's celebration of VISIBLE in Art Basel, a project by Fondazione Ermenegildo Zegna and Cittadellarte - Fondazione Pistoletto ONLUS. An international production fellowship originating from the visionary idea of the artist Michelangelo Pistoletto, VISIBLE researches and supports artworks in the social sphere. Its activation during Art Basel underscores ZEGNA’s commitment to global arts, cultural heritage, and cutting-edge commissions. ZEGNA advances the arts through commissions by artists who create works focused on the brand’s values. In its Milan headquarters, art weaves the story of ZEGNA’s success, identity, and heritage; “Woolen—The Reinstate Apple” by Michelangelo Pistoletto references the authenticity of ZEGNA’s partners and the sustainability of its wool. In recent years site-specific commissions by contemporary artists like Daniel Buren, Dan Graham, and Roman Signer have enriched the wool mill and the surrounding Oasi Zegna with new permanent public works of art. Globally, ZEGNA has commissioned artists, including Graham Sutherland, Not Vital, and Kiki Smith, to create wool trophies—a nod to Zegna’s commitment to sourcing the highest quality wool and its beginning as a textile company in 1910.

“How Storm King Art Center Became One of the World’s Top Sculpture Parks” - artnet From Alexander Calder to Maya Lin, Richard Serra to Andy Goldsworthy, Sarah Sze, and Martin Puryear, among many others, the iconic collection is hailed by Artnet as one of the most acclaimed of its kind in the world. Nestled in New York’s idyllic Hudson Valley, Storm King continues to captivate visitors through its integration of nature and art. Currently, 'Arlene Shechet: Girl Group,' co-curated by Nora Lawrence and Eric Booker, adorns the landscape, adding to Storm King’s rich tapestry of dynamic art. Alongside Shechet’s outdoor wonders, the indoor gallery features Shechet’s pandemic-era ceramic series, “Together" that sparked the genesis of 'Arlene Shechet: Girl Group.' “Our site is not neutral or blank—it is an active participant in any installation,” says Artistic Director and Chief Curator, Nora Lawrence. Read below why Storm King continues to stand as a beacon of innovation and beauty as the Center approaches its 65th anniversary next year. https://lnkd.in/e6fUAUaW

“[Arlene Shechet] will reach something of a career crescendo,” wrote Nancy Hass for The New York Times this past Sunday. It’s just one remark amongst many others that highlights the indomitable artist, Arlene Shechet, who will debut her solo exhibition, "Arlene Shechet: Girl Group" at Storm King Art Center this weekend. An exhibition of six monumental, vividly colored sculptures will adorn Storm King’s rolling hills through the summer, beckoning visitors to stand in awe of the 20 to 30-foot works. “Arlene’s work is bold and audacious, and visitors will certainly feel the pulse of the new sculptures she has created for Storm King across our landscape,” says Nora Lawrence, Storm King’s Artistic Director and Chief Curator. Indoors, Storm King’s Museum Building galleries will display Shechet’s pandemic-era "Together" series which inspired the larger commissions outdoors. "Arlene Shechet: Girl Group" will be on view May 4–November 10, 2024, accompanied by a robust calendar of public programs, including an outdoor performance produced in collaboration with Shechet. The exhibition is co-curated by Storm King’s Artistic Director and Chief Curator Nora Lawrence and Associate Curator Eric Booker, with Adela Goldsmith, Curatorial Assistant.

#TeamFITZ is on the ground in Venice for the 60th Biennale. Meet us there and follow along on our socials! 🇮🇹
Fondazione La Biennale di Venezia has been one of the most significant art events in Europe for over a century. The 60th edition 'Stranieri Ovunque - Foreigners Everywhere' curated by Adriano Pedrosa opens to the public on April 20 at the Giardini and Arsenale venues. This year, #labiennale features participants from 90 countries and 30 collateral events. In 1995, I had the honor of working with Bill Viola for his presentation at the US Pavilion for the 46th Biennale. For 2024, here's my roundup of must-see exhibitions: ➡ ‘Madang: Where We Become Us’ by the Gwangju Biennale Foundation draws inspiration from the concept of “Madang” as the celebratory space in a traditional Korean home. Reflecting on its past 14 exhibitions, the project envisions the future while engaging in global dialogue on democracy, human rights, and peace. The exhibition will be held at Il Giardino Bianco Art Space until November 24 as an official part of La Biennale. ➡ Zuecca Projects presents two exhibitions. ‘Estranged From Nature’ by Ioan Sbârciu focusing on climate change, deforestation, and deconstructed landscapes is on view at the Square Castello April 16-July 14. ‘THE ELEPHANT AND THE BLIND MEN – The Matter of the Void’ features Chiara Capellini’s artworks, exploring emptiness and indeterminacy in physics and will be on view at the Rupture Arts & Books bookshop April 18-June 29. ➡ ‘Planète Lalanne’ by Ben Brown Fine Arts: the first major exhibition in Italy of works by Claude and François-Xavier Lalanne. Curated by Jérôme Neutres and featuring 150+ works by the artist duo, open April 17-November 3 at Palazzo Rota Ivancich. ➡ ‘The Monument Game’ by Sam Spratt, presented by 1OF1 Collection, open April 17-June 23 at the Docks Cantiere Pietro Cucchini. Spratt fuses classical oil painting with digital innovation to portray universal human struggles and the quest for connection in this participatory, on-chain artwork from the “Luci” series. ➡ 'I'm Not Afraid of Ghosts' presented by TCollection and Malevich.io at Palazzo Tiepolo Passi April 17-September 22. The exhibition showcases the work of visionary contemporary artists including Marlene Dumas, Tracey Emin, Jenny Holzer, and Issy Wood highlighting themes relating to the body, female or otherwise, liberation, and the cyclical historical narratives that connect them. Curated by Svetlana Marich and Sarah McCrory, it is the first public presentation of works from the private collection of entrepreneur, engineer, and philanthropist Tatiana Fileva and Malevich.io’s debut in Venice. ➡ ‘Julie Mehretu. Ensemble’ at Palazzo Grassi | Punta della Dogana is the largest exhibition to date in Europe dedicated to Julie Mehretu. It features over 60 works by Mehretu spanning over 25 years as well as works by the artist’s friends Nairy Baghramian, Huma Bhabha, Robin Coste Lewis, Tacita Dean, David Hammons, Paul Pfeiffer, and Jessica Rankin. The exhibition is on view through January 6, 2025. #BiennaleArte2024 #StranieriOvunque
