Marina Abramović to have historic solo exhibition at Venice’s Galleria dell’Accademia in 2026

Marina Abramović will have a historic solo exhibition at Venice’s Galleria dell’Accademia in May 2026, during the art biennale. Titled "Transforming Energy," the show first debuted at the Modern Art Museum (MAM) Shanghai in 2024 and is inspired by her 1988 walk across the Great Wall of China with former partner Ulay. Abramović becomes the first living female artist to exhibit solo at the Accademia in its 250-year history, following her 2023 milestone as the first woman with a solo show at London’s Royal Academy of Arts and her 1997 Golden Lion win at the Venice Biennale. Curated by MAM artistic director Shai Baitel in collaboration with the artist, the exhibition will feature historic performances such as Rhythm 0 (1974) and Imponderabilia (1997), alongside newer works incorporating precious stones and a photograph of Pietà (with Ulay) (1983) displayed alongside Titian’s Pietà.

Hidden picture beneath Vermeer’s ‘Girl with the Red Hat’ may be the artist’s only existing male portrait, research reveals

New research using advanced imaging techniques suggests that the hidden male portrait beneath Johannes Vermeer's 'Girl with the Red Hat' (c. 1664-69) at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., may have been painted by Vermeer himself, rather than an unidentified artist as previously thought. Earlier studies had dismissed the underpainting as the work of another hand due to its loose brushwork, but recent analysis indicates Vermeer's initial paintwork was typically looser and quicker. The male figure's costume dates the composition to 1650-55, which would make it Vermeer's only known male portrait and predate his earliest known work, 'Christ in the House of Mary and Martha' (1654-55).

Comment | I used to think it wasn’t cool to like Andy Goldsworthy—now I see how he helps us appreciate the natural world

Mia maxima culpa. For many years I felt it wasn’t cool to like Andy Goldsworthy. The British artist’s interventions in and workings with nature, while highly skilful and often very beautiful, seemed out of kilter with an increasingly hardcore, conceptually underpinned and urban-orientated art world. It also didn’t help that most of his work could only be experienced at one remove. Books and photographs were the only record of the ephemeral pieces he’d created from ice, leaves, sticks and stones; as well as of the more lasting installations—walls, sheepfolds, cairn paths and giant arches—he’d make in situ, usually in remote locations across the world.

‘Why don’t you talk about the hostages?’: Nan Goldin interrupted by protester during Gaza-focused speech at Rencontres d’Arles

American photographer Nan Goldin was confronted by a protester during her acceptance of the 2025 Women In Motion Award at the Rencontres d'Arles photography festival. Goldin used the occasion to speak about the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, describing the conflict as "the first live-streamed genocide" and projecting images of Gaza before and after the Israeli military campaign. A woman in the audience repeatedly shouted, "Why don't you talk about the hostages?" while other audience members chanted "Free Palestine." Goldin responded by acknowledging the 7 October attacks but emphasizing the scale of Palestinian casualties. She also accused the Israeli government of conflating anti-Zionism with antisemitism and of putting drugs in flour delivered to Gaza, a claim not independently verified.

A new exhibition at Macquarie University Art Gallery reveals unseen works by Eric Smith (1919-2017), a celebrated Australian artist who won three Archibald Prizes and six Blake Prizes before unexpectedly vanishing from public life. Despite his early fame—including a role in launching Australian abstract expressionism with the group show Direction 1—Smith's career stalled after the death of his gallerist Rudy Komon in 1982, leaving him without a connection to the art world. He continued painting prolifically for four more decades, working daily in his studio, but destroyed more than half his output and had no major gallery shows after 1989.
