Photographer Catherine Opie is everywhere all at once this spring

Photographer Catherine Opie is experiencing an extraordinary year in 2026, with multiple major exhibitions opening simultaneously across Europe and Los Angeles. A career-spanning survey at London’s National Portrait Gallery will travel to Edinburgh’s Royal Scottish Academy, while other shows appear in Kassel, Germany, and Trondheim, Norway. In Los Angeles, her new exhibition “Holding Blue” opens May 28 at Regen Projects, featuring 44 images of Norwegian mountain landscapes shot over 20 days in early 2024, accompanied by nine ceramic sculptures. Her work also appears in group shows at the Autry Museum of the American West, Hauser & Wirth, and David Zwirner. Opie, who retired from UCLA after serving as chair of the art department and teaching photography for more than 20 years, describes this period as the “Catherine Opie World Tour 2026.”

Postcard from North Carolina

The Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University is celebrating its twentieth anniversary with the exhibition "Everything Now All at Once," on view from August 21 to November 1, 2026. The show gathers landmark works from the museum's contemporary collection, emphasizing artists and perspectives historically excluded from dominant narratives. Curated by director Trevor Schoonmaker and curator Dr. Xuxa Rodriguez, the exhibition is presented as an evolving visual mixtape rather than a fixed archive, reflecting the cultural exchange of North Carolina's Research Triangle.
