Show me the money: UK gallery and auction house accounts reveal reality of a tough market

Recent financial filings from UK-based art businesses reveal a stark downturn in the art market, highlighted by the sudden liquidation of Stephen Friedman Gallery. The gallery's collapse followed expensive expansion projects in London and New York, compounded by a £1.7m loss in 2023 and a significant debt of £11.4m to creditors. Other major players, including Thaddaeus Ropac, reported substantial revenue drops, with Ropac’s turnover falling from £49.6m to £36.4m as the industry grapples with rising overheads and economic volatility.

San Juan’s Artists Are Shaping Puerto Rico’s Cultural Future One Space at a Time

Larissa De Jesús Negrón and other Puerto Rican artists are driving a cultural renaissance in San Juan, with grassroots galleries, collectives, and adaptive institutions redefining how art is produced and shared. This surge follows Hurricane Maria and the pandemic, bolstered by global attention from figures like Bad Bunny and exhibitions such as the 2023 Whitney show "no existe un mundo poshuracán." Art dealer Walter Otero notes that the scene has strengthened through local residencies, fellowships, and Puerto Rican curators in U.S. institutions, while spaces like EMBAJADA, founded by Christopher Rivera and Manuela Paz, reject the white-cube model to engage broader local audiences.

In 2025, new ‘independent and nimble’ art fairs began redrawing the market map

In 2025, several established art fairs were cancelled or postponed, including the Art Dealers Association of America's Art Show in Manhattan, Taipei Dangdai, Photofairs Hong Kong, and the India Art Fair's Mumbai expo. Amid these retrenchments, a wave of smaller, alternative art fairs emerged in cities like New York, Paris, and the Berkshires, organized by gallerists and curators seeking new formulas focused on coalition, affordability, and intimacy. Examples include Esther in Manhattan (co-founded by Margot Samel and Olga Temnikova), the Arrival Art Fair in North Adams (co-founded by Yng-Ru Chen, Crystalle Lacouture, and Sarah Galender Meyer), 7 rue Froissart in Paris (organized by Sara Maria Salamone and Brigitte Mulholland), and Post-Fair in Santa Monica (founded by Chris Sharp).

Marcel Duchamp Is Stripped Bare at MoMA

The Museum of Modern Art in New York has opened "Marcel Duchamp," the first retrospective of the artist on this continent in over 50 years. Curated by Ann Temkin, Michelle Kuo, and Matthew Affron, the exhibition is organized strictly chronologically and features Duchamp's most famous works—including his revolutionary readymades like *Fountain* (1917) and *Bicycle Wheel* (1913)—often shown only in photographic reproduction or as later refabricated copies, replicas, and miniatures from his *Box in a Valise* series. The show highlights how Duchamp's original objects have been lost or dematerialized, forcing viewers to confront the very definition of an artwork.

Insider’s Look at Curating a Show Inspired by the Declaration of Independence’s 250th Anniversary [Interview]

The Fabric Workshop and Museum (FVM) in Philadelphia has opened "Some American Dreams," an exhibition marking the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. Curated by Hilde Nelson, FVM curatorial fellow, the show features 27 works by 20 artists created during the museum's Artist-in-Residence Program over four decades. The exhibition includes pieces in furniture, sculpture, textiles, clothing, video, and photography, and is on view until June 14, 2026. In an interview with My Modern Met, Nelson discusses her curatorial approach, which poses the question, "What if 'America' is not one project, but many?" and explores how these multiple Americas are affirmed, resisted, or remade through the artworks.

Miami-Dade County has granted permission to the Miami Marlins, led by CEO Derek Jeter, to move Red Grooms's massive kinetic sculpture *Homer* from its original location inside Marlins Park to a new outdoor plaza called the Marlins Park Art Walk. The 73-foot-tall, $2.5 million artwork, which activates with water jets and spinning figures after every Marlins home run, has been opposed by the 81-year-old artist, who argues the un-weatherized piece will be damaged by the elements. Grooms and his wife have publicly appealed to keep the sculpture in place, but the county's Art in Public Places board approved the relocation, with the team facing a $2,000-a-day fine if the work is not reinstalled by January 1, 2020.
