what to know jean tinguely

Swiss artist Jean Tinguely, born 100 years ago on May 22, 1925, is celebrated in a centenary retrospective at Pirelli HangarBicocca in Milan. Known for his kinetic sculptures—clattering, motorized assemblages of cogs, wheels, and found objects—Tinguely emerged from Dada influences in Basel and Paris to become a leading figure of kinetic art. His work satirizes technological reliance and explores themes of mortality, often incorporating animal skulls and planned explosions. Major retrospectives at the Stedelijk Museum (2016) and Pirelli HangarBicocca (2024) have revived interest in his oeuvre.

suzanne duchamp kunsthaus zurich

A small Berlin auction house sold a 1930 gouache by Suzanne Duchamp for just €1,500 in 2024, and a Chicago-area firm moved a 1940 painting for only $1,000 in 2004—prices far below those of unknown emerging artists today. These works are now featured in the first-ever retrospective devoted to Duchamp at the Kunsthaus Zurich, highlighting her long neglect in favor of her more famous siblings Marcel Duchamp, Raymond Duchamp-Villon, and Jacques Villon. The exhibition traces her career from Cubist beginnings through superb Dadaist creations like "Arietta of Oblivion of the Dazed Chapel" (1920) to later, more decorative works that have divided critics.

Robert Rauschenberg at 100: How the Relentless Experimenter Rewired American Art

A global celebration marks the centennial of Robert Rauschenberg's birth on October 22, 1925, with a bumper program of exhibitions at major museums including the Museum of the City of New York, the Guggenheim in New York, the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, Des Moines Art Center, the Menil in Houston, Museum Ludwig in Cologne, and M+ in Hong Kong.
