Lost abstract artist Edna Taçon rediscovered at Art Gallery of Ontario

The Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) has launched a dedicated exhibition to rediscover the work of Edna Taçon, a mid-century abstract artist who was once a prominent figure in the New York and Toronto art scenes. Curated by Renée van der Avoird, the show features collages, drawings, and paintings from the 1940s, a period when Taçon exhibited alongside Lawren Harris and was championed by Hilla Rebay at the Museum of Non-Objective Painting (now the Guggenheim). The exhibition was sparked by the discovery of a single work in the AGO’s holdings and a subsequent connection with the artist's grandson, sculptor Carl Taçon.

Open letter calls for ousting of Art Gallery of Ontario trustee who led vote against Nan Goldin acquisition

A major controversy has erupted at the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) following the revelation that trustee Judy Schulich led a successful effort to block the acquisition of a new work by photographer Nan Goldin. The museum's Modern and contemporary curatorial working committee voted 11-9 against jointly purchasing Goldin's video piece *Stendhal Syndrome* (2024) with two other institutions, after Goldin was reportedly labeled antisemitic and compared to Nazi propagandist Leni Riefenstahl for her criticism of Israel's actions in Gaza. The decision prompted the resignation of the AGO's curator of modern and contemporary art and two volunteer committee members.

After a turbulent period of reorganisation, the 18th Istanbul Biennial favours futurity over futility

The 18th Istanbul Biennial, titled "The Three-Legged Cat," has opened after a turbulent period of reorganization. Curated by Christine Tohmé, the biennial unfolds over three years instead of the usual two, featuring 47 artists—only six from Turkey, with many from the Middle East. The exhibition spans eight venues, including a former cone factory and a French orphanage, and includes works such as Naomi Rincón-Gallardo's video installation on opossum resilience and Khalil Rabah's site-specific intervention with oil barrels and saplings. The biennial's budget was raised from €2m to €6.5m, mostly funded by Koç Holdings, following controversy over the initial appointment of curator Defne Ayas, which was rejected by the Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (IKSV), leading to Tohmé's eventual selection.

Comment | Monet might have seen Venice, but his paintings suggest he didn’t feel it

The article compares J.M.W. Turner's and Claude Monet's depictions of Venice, arguing that Turner's watercolors capture the city's innate melancholy and atmosphere, while Monet's paintings feel unfulfilling and lack emotional depth. The author reflects on Turner's sublime Venice watercolours, particularly 'San Giorgio Maggiore, Venice, at Sunset' (1840), and contrasts them with Monet's works, which are the subject of a major upcoming show at the Brooklyn Museum. The piece also touches on Francesco Guardi's visceral views versus Canaletto's more pleasing but superficial ones, and Howard Hodgkin's later, elegiac response to the city.
