El Ayuntamiento de Torrent ha anunciado la decisión definitiva sobre la ubicación permanente de las tres reproducciones de obras maestras cedidas por el Museo Nacional del Prado. Tras un mes y medio de exposición en las calles de la ciudad y después de la confirmación oficial de la donación de estas piezas por parte del Museo, se ha acordado que el Hall de l’Antic Mercat, uno de los espacios municipales más transitados y emblemáticos del centro histórico, sea el lugar donde se instalarán de manera permanente. Esta decisión permitirá que vecinos, vecinas y visitantes puedan disfrutar de estas joyas del patrimonio cultural español en un punto neurálgico de la ciudad, frente a la Torre, el principal monumento histórico de Torrent y símbolo de identidad local. Con ello, se garantiza que las obras estarán al alcance de miles de personas cada día, reforzando el espíritu de la iniciativa “En un lugar de…” y manteniendo vivo el legado artístico que el Prado quiso compartir con los municipios afectados por la dana de octubre de 2024. Las tres reproducciones “Las lanzas o La rendición de Breda” de Velázquez que estuvo expuesta en la fachada del EMAT, el delicado “'Bodegón con flores, copa de

What are we to make of the Hilma af Klint phenomenon? After decades of obscurity during which her works were stashed away in her nephew’s storeroom, the visionary Swedish artist and mystic’s 2018 Guggenheim retrospective broke all attendance records. In the show’s aftermath, we have seen the emergence of a veritable af Klint industry issuing forth an unending stream of books, posters, T-shirts, mugs, exhibitions, even an opera. In just the last year, this once forgotten artist has been the subject of solo shows at Tokyo’s National Museum of Modern Art, the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, Tate Modern, and now, the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Jennifer Higgie offers a clue to af Klint’s contemporary resonance in her 2023 book on women artists and the spirit world, The Other Side: “Quite apart from the sheer beauty of her paintings,” Higgie writes, “it’s hard not to see the near-feverish interest in [af Klint’s] work as a reflection of the widespread hunger for new ways of inhabiting the planet.” Af Klint is just one manifestation of the art world’s embrace of what we might describe as a spiritual turn, with the MoMA exhibition emphasizing her work’s mystical side. The turn we [...]

Los Angeles–based painter Lauren Quin has joined the roster at Pace Gallery. Quin, who previously showed with dealer Tim Blum before he shuttered his gallery earlier this summer, will have her first exhibition at Pace’s Los Angeles space in 2026, as well as having work in the gallery’s booth at Frieze Seoul next month. Quin is known for her densely layered abstractions that jump between frenetic mark-making and eerie calm. Since receiving her MFA from the Yale School of Art in 2019, Quin’s career has been on a rapid ascent, having her first show with Blum & Poe in 2022. Her paintings are owned by major institutions including the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, and the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C. Quin’s market has also experienced highs and lows. Her 2019 painting Ulter Bearing has come to auction three times since its original sale. It failed to sell at a Sotheby’s Hong Kong auction in 2022, then sold for $178,000 later in 2022, and finally netted only $22,000 when it sold at Sotheby’s London last fall, according to a report by Artnet News. Her auction record, achieved in 2022, [...]

WHITNEY ‘VICTIM’ SPEAKS OUT. Sara Nadal-Melsió’s role as associate director of the Whitney’s Independent Study Program (ISP) was terminated in June. She received the news right after the museum’s director, Scott Rothkopf, sent an email announcing his “suspension” of the 50-year-old ISP to a select number of its alumni. “I lost my job at the Whitney, but the art community lost a lot more,” Nadal-Melsió writes in Hyperallgergic. Her axing came two weeks after she released a public statement in protest of the Whitney’s cancellation of the performance No Aesthetic Outside My Freedom: Mourning, Militancy, and Performance, “an expression of transnational solidarity with the Palestinian people that was part of the ISP curatorial show a grammar of attention.” She adds that both her dismissal and the ISP’s “pause” were “the culmination of months of the museum’s combined disregard and scrutiny of the program.” Nadal-Melsió explains, “These actions were yet another blunt refusal to engage in dialogue, and further evidence of a consistent lack of clarity, to the point of obfuscation, regarding the future of the ISP, including the circumstances surrounding former ISP Director Gregg Bordowitz’s

The National Gallery in London is implementing a panel of citizens to advise the museum on its policy and direction. The new assembly will be comprised of members of public from across the United Kingdom. The new initiative, dubbed NG Citizens, aims to empower potential visitors and democratize the museum by allowing average citizens to be part of the decision-making process at the museum. The group is also intended to reflect the diversity of the UK.

Born in London in 1960, Paul Kasmin grew up surrounded by artists connected to his father, legendary dealer John Kasmin. He opened his own gallery in SoHo in 1989 before relocating to Chelsea a decade lader, eventually establishing three exhibition spaces, including the main gallery at 509 West 27th Street. In 2018, the gallery was renamed simply Kasmin. That confidence is reflected in the new gallery’s roster. Olney Gleason will open its first exhibition this fall in Chelsea, with a roster of about 25 artists and estates. Around 80 percent of the artists and estates joining Olney Gleason began working with Kasmin within the last five years, the gallery’s founders said. “We’ve given a lot of attention to contemporary art in recent years,” Olney said. “And that’s going to continue. But we’re also interested in historical work that speaks directly to the art being made now. We want to create a dialogue between the 20th and 21st centuries.” “Functionally, the gallery has always been artist-centric,” Gleason added. “It’s our responsibility to provide artists with the resources they need to grow their practices and add meaningful lines to their CVs. The industry is starting to recognize

By Tessa Solomon Reporter, ARTnews Archaeologists in Mexico have uncovered what they believe to be the remains of the last recorded Maya rebel stronghold, famed for its century-long defiance of Spanish colonization. According to historical records, Sak-Bahlán, or the “Land of the White Jaguar,” was the final refuge for the Lakandon-Ch’ol people, who fled deeper into the Lacandon Jungle after the capture of their capital, Lakam-Tun, by the Spanish in 1586. Sak-Bahlán endured for nearly 110 years, until an expedition led by Friar Pedro de la Concepción alerted Spanish forces to its location in 1695. The stronghold was soon invaded and renamed Nuestra Señora de Dolores (“Our Lady of Sorrows”). Its society decimated, the site fell into disrepair and, by 1721, into obscurity. Though its location was lost, documents and letters written around the time of its seizure enshrined its legacy—particularly among some Lakandon-Ch’ol descendants—as a symbol of Indigenous resistance to Spanish conquest. “Lost” may no longer be the right word. In a recent announcement, the multinational Sak-Bahlán Archaeological Project said it had likely rediscovered the long-sought site. The project is co-directe

Para él Alboraia ya es un punto donde regresar, no solo por su arte, sino también por la gente que conoce y que conoce su trabajo. "Ya me conocen y confían en mí y en mi trabajo". Confirma incluso que en cuatro años "quiere irse a vivir a Alboraia y fundar otra escuela de muralismo en València". Su técnica de trabajo es el "copylefting", cree en "el diálogo para la creación". A partir de una idea, se van creando otras hasta que se llega a diferentes puntos de vista. También explica que para él "es importante que los artistas también puedan pintar lo que ellos quieran, lejos de los encargos" y que el arte "le hace sentir muy poderoso, en el sentido de tener la habilidad de transformar, de poder ser quién quiere ser y de poder hacer una obra de arte donde no había nada". Por eso, muchos de los sitios donde plasma sus murales son sitios escondidos, "tabú para la sociedad", como hospitales, centros de salud mental o cárceles.
