New York Art Week 2026 brings a major convergence of art events across the city, including several prominent art fairs such as Frieze New York, Independent New York, TEFAF New York, and NADA New York. The week also features gallery openings spanning from Tribeca to the Upper East Side, as well as auction previews ahead of key sales at Sotheby’s, Christie’s, and Phillips.
Alison M. Gingeras, an American curator and writer, has organized a major new exhibition titled “The Woman Question: 1550–2025” at the recently opened Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw. The show brings together over 200 artworks spanning nearly 500 years of women’s creative production, from Renaissance figures like Sofonisba Anguissola and Lavinia Fontana to Baroque artists such as Elisabetta Sirani and Artemisia Gentileschi, and contemporary names like Betty Tompkins and Lisa Brice. The exhibition explores how women artists have depicted themselves, power, resistance, desire, and violence, drawing on the historical concept of the "querelle des femmes" and Linda Nochlin’s famous 1971 essay. Gingeras discusses the project on the podcast The Art Angle.
P·P·O·W gallery in New York is presenting "Martin Wong: Popeye," the gallery's sixth solo exhibition of the artist's work and his first solo show in New York in over a decade. Co-curated by Mark Dean Johnson and Anneliis Beadnell, the exhibition explores Wong's lifelong fascination with artistic subcultures, particularly comic book illustration and early tattoo imagery.
