The Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden is presenting a comprehensive retrospective of Berlin-based painter Katharina Wulff, titled 'Arabesken in Arabesken'. Curated by Christina Lehnert, the exhibition features around 40 works that explore dreamlike, enigmatic spaces blending reality, memory, and the unconscious, with paintings like 'Landschaft für glückliche Hexen' (2008) and 'Der Waldspaziergang' (2002) exemplifying her unique style.

One Art One Community: Exhibit illustrates the transformative power of art among the incarcerated

An unconventional art exhibition titled “One Art One Community” is on display at Case Western Reserve University’s Wade Park Community Engagement Center, featuring 46 works by 16 incarcerated artists from Grafton Correctional Institution. Curated by Eric Gardenhire, who directs the prison’s arts and crafts program, and co-curated by Megan Alves, the show replaces traditional artist statements with “Community Voice labels” written by Cleveland residents impacted by incarceration, including formerly incarcerated artist Gwendolyn Garth. The exhibit opened on October 30 and aims to bridge the gap between inmates and the broader community.
