What does a painting sound like? The Clyfford Still Museum has lots of ideas.

The Clyfford Still Museum in Denver is opening a multisensory exhibition called "Still in Sound" on May 16, curated by Bailey Placzek and British artist Ben Coleman. The exhibition pairs the museum's vast collection of abstract expressionist works with sound-driven experiences. Additionally, the museum commissioned a world-premiere symphony, James Clarke's "Symphony No. 2," which will be performed by the Colorado Symphony at Boettcher Concert Hall on May 7. The program also includes music that inspired Still himself, such as works by Beethoven and Mahler, drawn from the artist's personal record collection.

Three downtown galleries in New York are currently exhibiting works centered on kittens, puppies, and puppetry, offering an escape from geopolitical conflict and domestic strife. At Chapter NY in Tribeca, Joseph Jones presents a solo show of photorealist pet portraits, including 'White cat with gemstones, 2026,' which dares viewers to engage with the often-dismissed genre of pet portraiture. Further east, Tibor de Nagy gallery hosts 'The Nagy Marionette Company: A 75th Anniversary Exhibition,' celebrating the gallery's origins in puppetry with archival documents and contemporary puppet-inspired art by nearly 20 artists, including Sarah McEneaney and Tabboo!.
