jill magid solo show esther kim varet congress

Conceptual artist Jill Magid has turned her dealer Esther Kim Varet's campaign for U.S. Congress into the subject of her latest solo exhibition, "Heart of a Citizen," at Various Small Fires in Los Angeles. The show features a replica of the White House Briefing Room platform, which Magid offered for Varet's political use, leading to complex negotiations around campaign finance law. The campaign plans to host a political debate on the platform in July, and a collector purchased the sculpture to donate to Varet's campaign, intertwining art, law, and politics.

Artist Jill Magid has transformed her solo exhibition at Various Small Fires in Los Angeles into a platform for her dealer Esther Kim Varet’s congressional campaign. The show, titled “Heart of a Citizen,” features a replica of the White House Press Briefing Room podium, which Kim Varet uses to deliver stump speeches. Other works include a neon sign quoting a stenographer’s note and concrete casts of Magid’s heart, inspired by the White House Rose Garden. Magid emphasizes the show is not an endorsement but an exploration of power, free speech, and democracy.

Martin Schongauer, at the Louvre the exhibition on the master of the late Middle Ages

The Louvre Museum is hosting a major retrospective dedicated to Martin Schongauer, a pivotal German artist of the late 15th century, running from April 8 to July 20, 2026. Titled "Martin Schongauer: Le bel immortel," the exhibition features approximately one hundred works, including his world-renowned engravings, rare paintings like the "Virgin in the Rose Garden," and intricate drawings. Curated by Pantxika Béguerie de Paepe and Hélène Grollemund, the show traces Schongauer’s evolution from a goldsmith’s son in Colmar to a master who bridged the gap between Gothic tradition and Renaissance innovation.
