Nairy Baghramian's exhibition "nameless" at Wiels in Brussels engages in a sculptural dialogue with the Polish avant-garde artist Katarzyna Kobro, whose work was largely destroyed during and after World War II. Baghramian riffs on Kobro's forms with unpainted steel variations that double as plinths for her own works, while also referencing other displaced sculptors such as Isamu Noguchi, Louise Bourgeois, and Jean Arp. The show deliberately leaves works untitled and undated, inviting viewers to discover art-historical references while enjoying the material playfulness of the sculptures.

design matter and shape paris fair

Matter and Shape, a design salon held concurrently with Paris Fashion Week, returns for its third edition from March 6–9 at the Jardin des Tuileries. Curated by artistic director Dan Thawley and founder Matthieu Pinet, the fair transforms two pavilions into a temporary city of objects, featuring collectible design, practical luxury, and emerging studios. This year's theme, “scale,” prompts visitors to consider both micro craft gestures and macro production systems, with a focus on ethical and sustainable practices. Exhibitors include Lindsey Adelman Studio, a reading room with Villa Hegra, a collaboration with Byredo, and the return of the Zara Home x Dreamin’ Man café, alongside a new restaurant concept from Balbosté.
