'ART FROM WAR TO WAR: CHASING BUTTERFLIES OVER THE VERGE OF A CLIFF' at Beck & Eggeling International Fine Art, Düsseldorf, Germany on 28 May–15 Aug 2026

An exhibition titled 'ART FROM WAR TO WAR: CHASING BUTTERFLIES OVER THE VERGE OF A CLIFF' is on view at Beck & Eggeling International Fine Art in Düsseldorf, Germany, from 28 May to 15 August 2026. Curated by Antonio Geusa and Kay Heymer, the show features selected works from the Valeria Rodnianski collection, spanning artists from Germany and the Soviet/post-Soviet space. It is structured around two historical turning points—the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961 and Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022—and organized into three thematic sections: Topos, Anthropos, and Logos, exploring place, human experience, and language.

‘Painting continues to be viable’: Enrique Martínez Celaya on his sugar-coated show at the Wende Museum

Enrique Martínez Celaya has unveiled "The Sextant" at the Wende Museum in Culver City, marking the final installment of a decade-long trilogy exploring his Cuban childhood. The immersive installation features a full-scale recreation of his family’s Modernist home, entirely coated in 6,500 pounds of sugar to symbolize the industrial history of his hometown. Accompanied by paintings and sculptures, the exhibition uses personal artifacts, such as letters to his exiled father, to navigate themes of memory and displacement.
