new frick collection elitist pleasure

The Frick Collection in New York has reopened after a multiyear renovation and expansion by Selldorf Architects with Beyer Blinder Belle. Under director Ian Wardropper, the museum hired ambitious young curators who introduced fresh perspectives, including online programming focused on social contexts, temporary relocation to the Whitney's old space (Frick Madison) where they presented female old masters like Rosalba Carriera and contemporary artists of color like Barkley Hendricks, and a rehang that organized works by time and place. The expansion adds new exhibition spaces, a gallery for old master drawings, and opens the Frick family's former bedrooms to the public, housing treasures like gold ground paintings and Impressionist works.

art raul de nieves pioneer works

Raúl de Nieves, a queer Mexico-born artist based in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, is preparing for his latest institutional exhibition, “In Light of Innocence,” opening September 12 at Pioneer Works in Red Hook. The show features 40 new stained glass assemblages made from tape, acetate, and inexpensive materials, installed above a single floor-bound work—a departure from his typically maximalist style. De Nieves, who has exhibited at the ICA Boston, the Baltimore Museum of Art, and the Cleveland Museum of Art, and gained prominence after the 2017 Whitney Biennial, describes the exhibition as a valediction, stating it will be the last time he creates this kind of work.

Enter the unsettled space of Asian American abstraction

The Milton Resnick and Pat Passlof Foundation in New York is hosting the exhibition "How Asian Is It?", featuring 12 pioneering East Asian American abstractionists born between 1928 and 1955. Curated by Lilly Wei, the show includes works by Barbara Takenaga, Emily Cheng, Charles Yuen, and David Diao, among others. These artists navigated an art world where downplaying their Asian identities often felt necessary for survival, especially after the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act reshaped US immigration policy. The exhibition explores how their abstraction—marked by attention to interval, pause, and what remains unsaid—reflects a disciplined negotiation with space rather than a shared style or manifesto.

Merc Tenorio, a self-taught artist, poet, former teacher, and veteran, presents her eighth solo exhibition titled “/liminal/” at the Council on the Arts and Humanities Agency (CAHA) Gallery. The show features acrylic paintings exclusively in monochrome, stripping away color to challenge both herself and viewers to focus on texture, shape, light, and shadow. Tenorio draws inspiration from Vincent van Gogh and describes her limited palette as emancipating, emphasizing that her intent is not commercial viability but emotional expression and personal evolution.

The Daegu Kansong Art Museum has launched a special exhibition titled "Chusa's Painting Lessons" to mark the 240th anniversary of the birth of Kim Jeong-hui, the legendary Joseon Dynasty scholar and artist. While most retrospectives of Kim's work focus on his revolutionary calligraphy and academic scholarship, this showcase specifically highlights his paintings and his pedagogical influence on his students. A centerpiece of the exhibition is the "Yerim Gapeulrok," a document that illustrates the artistic exchanges and critiques shared between the master and his disciples.
