Venice Biennale Special 2026—podcast

This episode of The Art Newspaper's podcast is a Venice Biennale special, covering the opening week of the 2026 edition. Host Ben Luke, along with Louisa Buck and Jane Morris, reviews the main exhibition "In Minor Keys," curated by the late Koyo Kouoh and realized by five collaborators. The podcast features interviews with artists Gabrielle Goliath, whose work for the South African pavilion was cancelled and is instead staged in a Venice church, and Lubaina Himid, showing in the British pavilion. It also includes conversations with writer Saidiya Hartman and Daniella Kaliada of Belarus Free Theatre about their collateral projects. The episode concludes with a focus on two restored Tintoretto paintings at the Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore, funded by Save Venice.

Rose Art Museum Presents Fred Wilson: Reflections August 20, 2025 – January 4, 2026

The Rose Art Museum at Brandeis University will present "Fred Wilson: Reflections," a major survey of the artist's work from 2003 to the present, on view from August 20, 2025, through January 4, 2026. Curated by Dr. Gannit Ankori, the exhibition spans three sections, including Wilson's glassworks inspired by the 2003 Venice Biennale, his black-and-white Flag paintings, and the debut of a new immersive installation, "Black Now!," which features over 2,500 found objects collected since 2005 that explore themes of race, identity, and material culture.

Left at the altar: Luc Tuymans's paintings to replace Tintoretto works at Venetian church

Belgian artist Luc Tuymans has created two new paintings, "Heat" and "Musicians" (2025), for the altar of the Abbey of San Giorgio Maggiore, a 16th-century church on a Venetian island. The works temporarily replace two canvases by Jacopo Tintoretto—"The Last Supper" and "The People of Israel in the Desert"—which are undergoing restoration funded by the Save Venice conservation charity. The commission was organized by Benedicti Claustra Onlus and the Draiflessen Collection, and the paintings will be on view from May 9 to November 23.
