Anicka Yi, an artist known for exploring the intersection of biology and technology, has created a new installation at Storm King Art Center. The work features muck-filled columns that examine pond scum and other microscopic life-forms, using them as a lens to question humanity's role in the natural world. The installation is described as a kind of laboratory where Yi investigates the agency and intelligence of non-human organisms.
Nel Principato di Monaco una mostra dove il grande pittore Poussin dialoga con l’arte contemporanea
The Nouveau Musée National de Monaco presents an exhibition titled "Le Sentiment de la Nature," which juxtaposes works by 17th-century French painter Nicolas Poussin and his followers with pieces by about thirty contemporary and 20th-century artists. The show is organized into six thematic sections—storms and nights, forests and gardens, seas and waterfalls, deserts and volcanoes, mountains, and flowers and butterflies—each exploring the ancient concept of "miracula naturae" (wonders of nature). Featured contemporary artists include Nan Goldin, Andreas Gursky, Thomas Demand, Sarah Moon, Mimmo Jodice, Giulio Paolini, Giorgio Andreotta Calò, and Fausto Melotti, with works spanning photography, painting, video, and sculpture. The exhibition runs until May 25, 2026, and is accompanied by a catalog published by Italian publisher Humboldt Books in collaboration with the museum.
