The elusive artist Cady Noland has made a shock return with a sprawling exhibition of almost entirely new work at Gagosian’s 555 West 24th Street space in New York. After withdrawing from the public eye for over a decade and becoming infamous for disavowing her own works and suing collectors over attribution, Noland re-emerged with a survey show at Frankfurt’s Museum of Modern Art in 2018, followed by commercial shows at Galerie Buchholz in 2021 and Gagosian in 2023. Her latest exhibition, featuring 38 entries mostly made this year, was a hit, with many works placed with major collectors and institutions.

The Philadelphia Museum of Art will host a major exhibition titled *Van Gogh’s Sunflowers: A Symphony in Blue and Yellow* from June 6 to October 11, 2026, bringing together two iconic Sunflower paintings: the museum’s own turquoise-background version (January 1889) and the original yellow-background version (August 1888) from London’s National Gallery.

Film-maker Wes Anderson to recreate Joseph Cornell’s New York studio in Paris this Christmas

Filmmaker Wes Anderson is recreating Joseph Cornell's New York studio in a window display at Gagosian Gallery's Paris space on Rue de Castiglione, opening next month to coincide with Christmas and Cornell's birthday on December 24. The exhibition will feature around 12 of Cornell's iconic shadow boxes, including "Pharmacy" (1943) and works from his Medici series, alongside hundreds of found objects. Curated by Jasper Sharp, who has worked with Anderson for years, the display is designed as a non-interactive window installation that captures the spirit and atmosphere of Cornell's basement studio in Queens, rather than an exact replica. Anderson and Sharp have spent weeks studying photographs and first-hand accounts, sourcing objects from flea markets and employing Anderson's film crew to replicate Cornell's handwriting and aging techniques.

The story of Jean-Michel Basquiat’s brief but dazzling life, as told by an art-world insider

Doug Woodham, former president of Christie's Americas and current managing partner of Art Fiduciary Advisors, has authored a new biography titled "Jean-Michel Basquiat: The Making of an Icon." The book is divided into two halves: the first offers a straightforward biography of Basquiat's life from his gifted childhood in Brooklyn to his rise as a star artist, his friendship with Andy Warhol, and his tragic death from a heroin overdose at age 27. The second half analyzes how Basquiat achieved such early success, examining the influence of his father Gerard, the legal battle with dealer Vrej Baghoomian over the artist's estate, and the roles of collectors like Peter Brant and José Mugrabi. Notably, the Basquiat estate refused permission to include images of his artwork because the book openly addresses sensitive issues about his character and life.
