Arnulf Rainer, a revolutionary figure in postwar Austrian art, has died aged 96

Arnulf Rainer, a revolutionary figure in postwar Austrian art, has died at age 96. His death on 18 December was confirmed by his gallery Thaddaeus Ropac, which described him as one of the most influential artists of the post-war period. Born in 1929 in Baden, Austria, Rainer emerged as a leading figure of the Austrian avant-garde, known for his gestural paintings confronting the atrocities of the Holocaust and Hiroshima, and for his experimental self-portraiture. He was a founding member of Galerie nächst St Stephan in postwar Vienna, a vital hub for artists seeking alternatives to the conservative art world. His signature Übermalungen (overpaintings) involved painting over photographs and self-portraits with aggressive gestures, dense black strokes, and erasures, creating charged works where violence and vulnerability coexist.

Woody De Othello Opens the Door of His California Studio Ahead of a Major Exhibition in Miami

Woody De Othello, a self-described '90s kid from North Miami Beach now based in Oakland, California, is preparing for his largest museum exhibition to date at the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), on view through June 28, 2026. The exhibition, titled 'Coming Forth by Day,' marks a homecoming for the artist, whose Funk Art–inflected ceramic and bronze sculptures of animated household objects—telephones, clocks, fans—have gained significant attention. Othello's work, which blends cartoonish aesthetics with personal narrative, has been featured in biennials at the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Orange County Museum of Art. He works out of two East Bay studios, one a former gym for painting and ceramics, the other a woodshop for frames and pedestals, and has been represented by San Francisco dealer Jessica Silverman since 2018.

Sculptor Alma Allen reportedly selected to represent US at 2026 Venice Biennale

Sculptor Alma Allen has reportedly been selected to represent the United States at the 2026 Venice Biennale, replacing Robert Lazzarini, who was dropped after political interference and delays linked to the Trump administration's cuts to the National Endowment for the Arts. The selection process has been fraught, with the State Department directly choosing Lazzarini without NEA involvement, and his proposal—featuring distorted renderings of US national symbols—collapsed amid claims of political meddling. Allen, a Mexico-based artist formerly represented by Kasmin and now in talks with Perrotin, is less established than recent US pavilion artists like Jeffrey Gibson or Simone Leigh, but has a strong practice in stone, wood, and bronze sculpture.

The Myth of the “Emerging” Black Artist: Ageism and Access in the Art World

The article, written by Chenoa Baker, critiques the art world's labeling system that categorizes artists as emerging, mid-career, or established. It argues that these labels are particularly harmful to Black artists, who are often kept in the "emerging" category for years despite significant achievements, collections, and decades of practice. The piece highlights the cases of Cheryl Miller, a self-taught analog photographer whose work is held by major institutions yet who had to "re-emerge" after relocating, and Ifé Franklin, a queer Black artist whose career was sidelined by systemic erasure and who is now being honored as an "elder" artist. The article connects these labels to ageism, lack of access to elite schools and galleries, and the undervaluing of self-taught artists and those working outside traditional art centers.
