Icônes

April 2–November 26, 2023
Punta della Dogana, Venice
www.pinaultcollection.com

Icônes includes painting, video, sound, installation, and performance from the Pinault Collection. The icons of the title suggest a transcendent reality—the power to render material the invisible, create emotion or a sense of aesthetic and spiritual bedazzlement. This exhibition considers both the fragility and the power of images as icons and the multiple meanings they carry. Work by Theaster Gates, Donald Judd, and Rudolf Stingel is included.

Escala: Escultura (1945–2000)

March 31–July 2, 2023
Fundación Juan March, Madrid
www.march.es

This exhibition, whose title translates to Scale: Sculpture, begins with a reflection on the effects of the Second World War on a number of artists and their conception of sculptural space as refuge. The role of scale in sculpture is examined, and in an echo of the expanded meaning of sculpture today, the exhibition extends beyond the gallery walls, into the gardens and the surrounding streets. Work by Chris Burden, Alberto Giacometti, Donald Judd, Henry Moore, and Richard Serra is included.

Variation in Print
Amerikanische Druckgrafik

April 30–August 28, 2022
Kunstmuseum Basel
kunstmuseumbasel.ch

This exhibition, whose subtitle translates to American Graphic Art, explores the so-called “graphic boom,” when, beginning in the 1960s, prominent American artists eagerly explored the potentials and challenges of printmaking. The technical particularities of the medium—including serial repetition, the use of found motifs, and the division of idea and execution among multiple participants—provided stimuli that became central to their artistic concepts. Work by Donald Judd and Brice Marden is included.
