Spring 2026 to Feature New Documentaries, Screenings, Artist Talks, and a New Episode of Art in the Twenty-First Century

Art21 has announced its spring 2026 programming lineup, which includes new documentary premieres, film screenings, artist talks, and the second episode of the 12th season of its flagship series 'Art in the Twenty-First Century.' The season features artists such as Tomás Saraceno, Njideka Akunyili Crosby, Camille Henrot, and Ragnar Kjartansson, and coincides with the series' 25th anniversary.

This programming matters as it represents a significant milestone for Art21, a leading producer of contemporary art documentaries, and reflects its ongoing mission to expand public access to artists and their ideas. The 2026 season aims to explore the blurring lines between the real and unreal through art, while releasing a large volume of new content and previously unseen archival material to a global audience.
