"In Milan, Alchimia. The Revolution of Italian Design revisits a radical era of experimentation, while Histories of Ecology at MASP in São Paulo redefines our relationship with the natural world. Janet Echelman's Radical Softness reveals the quiet power of form and light, and Jeff Koons's Porcelain Series transforms myth into modern art. Some of the exhibitions highlighted in earlier radars and our dedicated event guide remain on view, giving designboom readers more time to encounter them in their travels."
"KAWS: FAMILY invites visitors into the artist's vibrant and emotionally charged world. Presented as the artist's first major museum exhibition on the West Coast, the show spans three decades of work, tracing his ability to tap into shared feelings and collective culture. Paintings, drawings, sculptures, and interventions, from ad takeovers to collaborations and toys, show the breadth of KAWS's evolving visual language, built around recurring figures and reimagined pop imagery."
November's exhibition program spans art, design, and architecture, emphasizing material, memory, process, and intergenerational dialogue. Major retrospectives include Gerhard Richter in Paris and a Ruth Asawa survey in San Francisco. Milan revisits Alchimia's experimental Italian design; MASP's Histories of Ecology reframes human relationships with nature. Janet Echelman's Radical Softness highlights form and light; Jeff Koons's Porcelain Series reinterprets myth. Some exhibitions continue from earlier listings, allowing extended public access. KAWS's West Coast museum debut, KAWS: FAMILY, surveys three decades of work across media and centers on the monumental bronze FAMILY (2021), which evokes tenderness, fragility, and collective cultural memory.
