The exhibition will feature some 250 works—including sculptures made of glass bricks and beads, plus paintings—displayed across ten museums and historical sites, including the Palais des Papes, Pont d’Avignon, Couvent Sainte-Claire, and the Lambert Collection. The project celebrates the 25th anniversary of Avignon being named a European Capital of Culture. Othoniel's Paris studio, a 40,000-square-foot former metal workshop in Montreuil that he shares with partner and artist Johan Creten, serves as the production hub for the works, with a team of 20 people on-site daily.

Discover Takashi Murakami’s New Exhibition at Cleveland Museum of Art

Takashi Murakami's solo exhibition "Stepping on the Tail of a Rainbow" has opened at the Cleveland Museum of Art, expanding on a survey that began at The Broad in Los Angeles in 2022. The centerpiece is a 32-foot-tall reinterpretation of the Yumedono (Dream Hall) from Hōryūji Temple in Nara, Japan, built with set builders from the FX series *Shōgun*. The show features around 100 paintings and sculptures dating back to 1993, including a yellow DOB t-shirt, and new works such as *Kansei Hokkyō Kōrin Flowers* (2025).
