A Milano una grande mostra a Palazzo Reale racconta i Macchiaioli (e l’Italia del loro tempo)

A major exhibition at Palazzo Reale in Milan explores the Macchiaioli, the 19th-century Italian painting movement often seen as a precursor to Impressionism. The show brings together works by key figures such as Giovanni Fattori, Silvestro Lega, Telemaco Signorini, Giuseppe Abbati, and Odoardo Borrani, alongside tangential artists like Giovanni Boldini, Federico Faruffini, and Gerolamo Induno. It traces the movement's origins at Florence's Caffè Michelangiolo, its epicenter at Castiglioncello under patron Diego Martelli, and its evolution from the 1850s through the 1870s, when the group's democratic ideals and en plein air techniques challenged academic conventions.

New Orleans artist Andrew Lamar Hopkins channels folk art legend Clementine Hunter in new exhibit

The article profiles New Orleans artist Andrew Lamar Hopkins and his new exhibition "Her Way, His Way" at the Orleans Gallery on Julia Street. The show pairs Hopkins' contemporary folk-inspired works with paintings by the late, legendary Louisiana folk artist Clementine Hunter, who died in 1988. Hopkins, now 48, draws directly from Hunter's subjects—such as wildflower bouquets and pecan harvesting scenes—creating a dialogue between two artists who never met. The piece also traces Hopkins' career trajectory from a self-taught history nerd in Mobile, Alabama, to a rising star with works displayed in Venice during the Venice Biennale.
