teamlab abu dhabi 2633347

Japanese art collective teamLab is opening its first custom-built museum on April 18 in Abu Dhabi's Saadiyat Cultural District, near the Louvre Abu Dhabi and the forthcoming Guggenheim Abu Dhabi. The 183,000-square-foot waterfront building, designed with MZ Architects, features a new series titled "Phenomena" that harnesses wind, water, and light to create immersive, kinetic environments. Highlights include installations like "Morphing Continuum," where floating silver balls form tornado-like formations, and a "wet zone" with glowing ovoids that respond to touch. The museum represents teamLab's most ambitious and technically challenging artworks to date.

Sophie Rivera's first survey focuses on experimentation

El Museo del Barrio in New York has opened "Sophie Rivera: Double Exposures," the first career survey of the Puerto Rican American photographer (1938-2021). The exhibition reassesses Rivera's practice, highlighting her experimental work beyond her well-known 1978 series "Nuyorican Portraits," which depicted Puerto Rican sitters in Manhattan's Morningside Heights. Curated by Susanna V. Temkin, the show features works across portraiture, photojournalism, and experimental image-making, including the color photograph "Alternators" (1975, printed 1986), which Rivera donated to the museum in the late 1980s.
