Le nuove mostre della Pinacoteca Agnelli e le nuove opere pubbliche sulla pista-parco del Lingotto: le foto

The Pinacoteca Agnelli in Turin has launched a new exhibition program that includes the first major institutional retrospective in Italy dedicated to Swiss photographer Walter Pfeiffer, titled "In Good Company," running until September 13, 2026. Curated by Nicola Trezzi and Simon Castets, the show features over 100 photographs from the 1970s to today, blending iconic and unseen works that explore queer eroticism, everyday artifice, and collaborative image-making. Concurrently, the museum presents "Modigliani sottopelle. Quattro capolavori" as part of its "Beyond the Collection" series, placing four masterpieces by Amedeo Modigliani—including a loan from the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart and works from the Centre Pompidou—in dialogue with the permanent collection. Curated by Pietro Rigolo and Beatrice Zanelli, the exhibition takes an interdisciplinary approach combining art history, diagnostics, and scientific research, using an algorithm to analyze canvas weaves and propose a new dating for the iconic "Nu couché" acquired by Giovanni and Marella Agnelli in 1960.

art cady noland thomas eggerer jochen klein

Cultured magazine reviews Cady Noland's 2025 exhibition at Gagosian Gallery's 24th Street location in New York, running through October 18. The show features the artist's signature objects—Budweiser cans, shotgun shells, barricades, and images of Patty Hearst and Lee Harvey Oswald—arranged in a fragmented, almost sale-like display. The review notes the inclusion of Steven Parrino's works alongside Noland's, referencing their collaboration at White Columns in 1988, and highlights new elements like "SALE" signs with manicule illustrations. The critic describes the exhibition as a "fascinating mess" rather than a straightforward success.
