gagosian michael heizer

Michael Heizer has unveiled a major exhibition titled "Negative Sculpture" at Gagosian’s West 21st Street gallery in New York. The installation features two massive works, Convoluted Line A and Convoluted Line B, which consist of steel liners filled with crushed red granite embedded into a raised gallery floor. To achieve the artist's vision of negative space without excavating the building's foundation, the gallery undertook a complex two-year engineering project to elevate the entire floor surface, matching the specific concrete hue of Heizer’s Nevada studio.

sarah meyohas desert x nft

Artist Sarah Meyohas has unveiled her first public art installation, "Truth Arrives in Slanted Beams" (2025), for the 2025 edition of Desert X in California's Coachella Valley. The monumental curved structure uses no electricity; instead, precisely milled mirrored discs reflect sunlight onto a white wall to form legible patterns and messages through the optical phenomenon of caustics. The work was created in collaboration with the Swiss company Rayform, which specializes in calculating caustic light patterns, pushing their technology to its largest scale yet.

It is only the second Tiffany work in the museum's collection, joining a wisteria lamp donated in 2022.

vladimir kanevsky frick collection porcelain

The Frick Collection has reopened after a $220 million, five-year renovation, featuring a new installation called "Porcelain Garden" by Ukrainian-born artist Vladimir Kanevsky. The display includes over 30 handcrafted porcelain floral pieces, such as a lemon tree, lilies of the valley, and a wild artichoke, placed alongside masterpieces by Vermeer, Rembrandt, Goya, and Bellini. Kanevsky, a 74-year-old Jewish-Ukrainian émigré who moved to New York in 1989, originally trained as an architect and turned to porcelain as a side project, which unexpectedly became his career. All the flowers at the Frick have been sold, with prices ranging from $5,000 to $500,000, though his secondary market remains minimal.
