The Thomas Cole National Historic Site in Catskill, New York, has opened a new exhibition titled “Thomas Cole: An American Visionary,” which marks the debut of the Richard Sharp Gallery in the historic 1815 Main House. The exhibition features 16 original paintings by Thomas Cole, along with drawings, sketches, and studio objects that trace the artist’s development and influence. It explores Cole’s evolution into an internationally recognized artist, his connection to the Catskill Mountains and Hudson Valley, and his role in shaping a visual identity for the young United States, while also highlighting his mentorship of Frederic Church. The gallery was funded and inspired by collector Richard “Rick” Sharp, who donated the centerpiece work “Diagram of Contrasts” to the site’s permanent collection.
The Marmottan Monet Museum in Paris has opened a major retrospective of Giovanni Segantini, an Italian painter known for his Symbolist and Divisionist Alpine landscapes. Titled "I Want to See My Mountains," the exhibition runs from April 29 to August 16, 2026, and features over 60 works including oil paintings, pastels, and drawings, plus around 30 works on paper from European collections. Curated by Gabriella Belli and Diana Segantini, the show traces Segantini's artistic journey from his early days in Italy to his time in the Engadine Valley in Switzerland, where he found inspiration in mountain landscapes. The exhibition is divided into ten sections and also includes a contemporary tribute to Anselm Kiefer, whose works create a dialogue with Segantini's vision.
