For Carly Glovinski, Art and Gardening Grow Side by Side

Maine artist Carly Glovinski has opened "Into the Garden," her third solo exhibition with New York's Morgan Lehman Gallery. The show explores gardening as a parallel practice to art-making, inspired by her residency at Surf Point in southern Maine, where she discovered the overgrown grounds of Wild Knoll, the former home of author May Sarton. Glovinski planted a community garden there, the Wild Knoll Foundation Garden, and the experience led her to return to painting after a two-decade hiatus, creating acrylic works that express the experience of gardening rather than traditional landscapes.

Konstantina Krikzoni's solo exhibition "ARMATURA" at L'Appartement in Geneva presents a new suite of paintings born from a period of intense solitude. The works explore painting as a medium for self-expression, using the metaphor of an armature—the metal framework that supports sculptures—to represent an inner structure of fortification, endurance, and survival. The paintings feature elusive female figures and landscapes rendered with delicate layers of pigment, evoking ancient myths and goddesses, with works like *Warrior I* (2025), *L.K. I Killed the Pink* (2025), and the titular *Armatura* (2025) conveying emotional rawness and psychological drama.

Paris Internationale, the emerging art fair known for hosting independent galleries, announced it will launch a Milan edition in April 2026, just before its 11th edition opened in Paris. The fair, founded in 2015 by a group of independent galleries, plans to establish a lasting presence in Milan, with founder Nerina Ciaccia citing alignment with the fair's values and approach to the art market. The Milan edition is partly driven by Italy's recent reduction of VAT on art exchanges from 22% to 5%, making it more competitive than France's 5.5%. The fair has not yet secured a venue but intends to choose an architecturally historic location, continuing its nomadic tradition.

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'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.
