Hamad Butt, a Young British Artist (YBA) whose career was cut short by AIDS in 1994, is finally receiving a retrospective at Whitechapel Gallery in London, titled “Apprehensions,” on view until September 7. The exhibition highlights Butt’s bio-art installation *Transmission* (1990), which features live flies feeding on sugar paper texts about contagion, alongside glass books lit by ultraviolet lamps.

Slags, bings and pipelines: Edinburgh landscape offers fitting backdrop for exhibition on fossil fuel extraction

Jupiter Artland, a sculpture park and gallery near Edinburgh, Scotland, is hosting the exhibition "Extraction" (through July 26), which examines the impact of fossil fuel extraction on landscapes and culture. Set against a backdrop of historic shale oil bings, North Sea oil pipelines, and modern wind farms, the show features five artists who explore energy histories through nuanced, non-polemical lenses. Glasgow-born painter Siobhan McLaughlin uses earth pigments gathered from the nearby Five Sisters Bing to create works like "Date of Exhaustion" (2025) and "Pioneer Species" (2025), turning mining waste into art that reflects on memory, ecology, and regeneration.

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.

The piece then focuses on a new exhibition at the North Carolina Museum of Art, "Grace Hartigan: The Gift of Attention," curated by Jared Ledesma, which explores how her relationships with avant-garde poets like Frank O'Hara and Barbara Guest shaped her work and provided a sense of belonging in the downtown New York scene.
