ruth asawa retrospective sfmoma review 1234740060

Ruth Asawa's first retrospective at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 1973 featured a communal "dough-in" where children made art from baker's clay, a practice that drew skepticism from some onlookers. Now in 2025, SFMOMA presents a larger retrospective of Asawa's work, showcasing her wire sculptures, drawings, and playful, community-oriented art. The exhibition, organized by SFMOMA's Janet Bishop and MoMA's Cara Manes, will travel to the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Guggenheim Bilbao, and the Fondation Beyeler.

gustave courbet burial at ornans public restoration 2641972

The Musée d'Orsay in Paris is undertaking a full public restoration of Gustave Courbet's monumental painting "A Burial at Ornans" (1849–50), 175 years after its scandalous debut at the Paris Salon. The 20-foot canvas will be cleaned, its poorly applied varnish layers thinned, and structural issues addressed—including cracks, tears, and deformations caused by the coarse fabric and heavy impasto. The restoration will also reveal previously hidden border portions of the canvas folded in the late 1800s, potentially adding new details to the composition.
