Décès de Christine Ruiz-Picasso
Christine Ruiz-Picasso, the daughter-in-law of Pablo Picasso and a pivotal figure in preserving his artistic legacy, has passed away. As the widow of Paul Picasso, the artist's eldest son, she played a foundational role in the management of the Picasso estate and was instrumental in the creation of major institutions dedicated to his work.
The family of the late pioneering sculptor Ruth Asawa has announced the opening of a dedicated gallery space in San Francisco to coincide with the artist's centennial celebration in 2026. This new venue will serve as a permanent home for her legacy, featuring rotating exhibitions of her signature wire sculptures, drawings, and archival materials that have not been widely seen by the public.
Kurimanzutto has appointed Corinna Durland as the new senior director of its New York gallery. Durland, who brings over two decades of experience from roles at Schwartzman&, Art Agency, Partners, and Gavin Brown’s enterprise, will lead the Chelsea-based space in collaboration with the gallery’s founders. Her mandate focuses on strengthening the gallery's U.S. program and deepening its international reach through artist management, institutional engagement, and strategic acquisitions.
