Highlights include Elena Roznovan's maternal ephemera embedded in concrete with bondage tape, Kelly Tapia-Chuning's deconstructed serapes addressing colonial violence, and Niniko Morbedadze's folkloric illustrations.

At Birmingham's Ikon Gallery, Angela de la Cruz's audacious, visceral art takes no prisoners

Angela de la Cruz's exhibition "Upright" at Ikon Gallery in Birmingham (until 6 September) marks her first UK institutional show since her 2010 Camden Arts Centre survey, which earned her a Turner Prize nomination. The exhibition features her signature painterly sculptures and sculptural paintings that blur boundaries between mediums, including works like "Still Life with Table" (2000), "Limp" (2000), and "Bloated 111 (Blue)" (2012), which combine Minimalist language with anthropomorphic, emotional qualities. De la Cruz, who has been based in the UK since the late 1980s, continues to create work that channels influences from art history, literature, and personal experience, even after a paralyzing stroke in 2005.

Markus Brunetti’s Monumental Photos Venerate European Ecclesiastical Landmarks

Bavarian photographer Markus Brunetti, working with collaborator Betty Schöner, has spent over two decades traveling across Europe in a converted firetruck photo lab to capture monumental composite photographs of basilicas, cathedrals, and other ecclesiastical landmarks. Their process involves taking thousands of meter-by-meter shots of each structure over several years, then meticulously layering and arranging them into high-resolution images that correct perspective to create a striking one-point view. Brunetti's current solo exhibition, "Facades IV" at Yossi Milo gallery in New York City, features recent works including "Roma, Basilica di San Pietro" (2007-2026), which required seven visits over nineteen years to complete.
