Norwegian artist Martine Poppe has opened a new solo exhibition titled "East of the Sun West of the Moon" at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery in London.

The exhibition explores themes of freedom, distance, and the mystical wildness of the natural world, inspired by both her childhood experiences and influences from Japanese woodblock prints and 19th- and 20th-century Western artists.

A painting in a private UK collection, long considered a workshop copy of Rembrandt's 'Old Man with a Gold Chain' at the Art Institute of Chicago, has been newly attributed to Rembrandt himself by scholar Gary Schwartz. Schwartz argues the quality and lack of corrections suggest Rembrandt, not a pupil, created the canvas replica while the original process was still fresh.

Designer Stella Ishii, co-owner of fashion showroom the NEWS and founder of label 6397, discusses her SoHo loft and the neighborhood's artistic legacy in an interview with curator Clarissa Dalrymple. Ishii, who moved from Japan to New York in the 1990s after working with Comme des Garçons founder Rei Kawakubo, bought a 3,000-square-foot cast-iron loft with her artist husband Jerry Kamitaki in 1997, preserving a rare artist-priced property in a rapidly gentrifying area. The conversation touches on SoHo's transformation from an artist haven—home to figures like Gordon Matta-Clark, Donald Judd, Joan Jonas, and gallerist Paula Cooper—to a commercial district, as well as Ishii's collecting habits and the loft's role as a creative space for performances and guests.

art market price increase 2025

The article examines the paradox of rising art prices despite a contracting market. The global art trade shrank by 12% in 2024, according to the Art Basel/UBS Art Market report, and financial volatility from trade wars has further depressed conditions. Yet dealers resist lowering prices, fearing that doing so would signal decreased value. Collectors like Jeff Magid argue that entry-level prices—often tens of thousands of dollars—are shutting out new buyers, and artists sometimes must leave their galleries to restart at lower price points. The upcoming Frieze New York fair will test whether this pricing strategy holds.

Aileen Murphy's third exhibition at Deborah Schamoni in Munich, titled "Sleeps on the Ceiling," presents five new paintings dominated by rosé and pink tones. The works revolve around a table-like motif, featuring animals, disembodied limbs, and surreal details such as a white cat with red eyes and a yellow snake. Murphy, who completed her studies in 2018, blends abstract gestures with detailed figuration, creating scenes that are both playful and uncanny. The exhibition's title is borrowed from Elizabeth Bishop's poem "Sleeping on the Ceiling" (1946), reflecting a dissolution of domestic interior, urban monument, and psychological landscape.
