Inframundo invites visitors to look inward and become a rock, drawing on the landscape shaped by cenotes, which are thought to be portals to the Maya underworld.

The initiative focuses on enhancing visitor experience, improving accessibility, and advancing energy resilience, while supporting the long-term stewardship of the institution.

"It's an amalgamation of the Chicago neighborhood aesthetic with a Bulls fan, quite literally. It's kind of on the nose, but that's how I juxtapose the elements of my work, with the structure of a home and then a figure who is around or in the home."

Abraham Vazquez has this lusty, powerful, aching voice. This song is about loss, and you feel it with every inch of intensity that he's performing.

Every terrible thing always begins in the prettiest weather. Cruelty loves a clear sky. . . . Every war starts on a perfect day. This opening number from Diane Severin Nguyen's War Songs captured the paradox of experiencing extraordinary art and cultural vitality while geopolitical crises unfold, setting the tone for the week's contradictions.

Kyoung Chun's creative practice moves between painting and site-specific installation. Interactive works extend the language of painting beyond the canvas, inviting viewers into environments that challenge perception and encourage connection.

Seeing the Alhambra in Granada was an extraordinary experience for me. It was the first time that I understood painting as something other than an object hanging on a wall. I thought that paintings could be in a fixed place, made for that place, made for the light of the place, experienced kinesthetically.

The Getty Center's inaugural renovation will blend necessary structural and cosmetic updates, revitalizing galleries to 'bring art in dialogue with nature' and introducing 'exciting new artist commissions.'

Jasper Johns seemed to reject the tortured, in-the-moment 'I' of Abstract Expressionism, ironically commenting on the heroism and spontaneity associated with Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning in his early work.

Sand Art is a game by Kory Jordan and published by 25th Century Games for two to four players ages 10 and up. It takes about an hour to play, and has you collecting resources and then coloring in a bottle, making art in a bottle out of sand, in case the name didn't give away the plot. Gameplay Overview: Sand Art has you gathering and mixing sand, which is used to fill your bottle.

Inside NYC-based artist Mark Dorf's project Late Pastoral, the ecological world is trapped in a rear-illuminated print. It's real - but something is off, it's been digitally altered, data-noise clutters images of glowing plant life. Shaped by the pervasive influence of technology, design and the rhythms of digital connectivity, even nature becomes at one with the unreal. Non-human nature is the main thesis of Mark's wide-spanning digital art works, offering reflections on our digital age.

The new New Museum is many things: contemporary, perhaps, but also a science, history, anthropology, and many other museums in one. It echoes the desire of its patron class to own the world and its affiliated courtier class to deliver it to them on a silver platter, or encased in perforated metal, in this case.

We were supposed to be Frieze's special guests. And we feel like we're being censored, racially profiled and discriminated against. Having worked with the fair for five years, she says she will not continue beyond this weekend.

I appreciate the migrant story and the labour connection. They matter too. Period. Martinez was awarded the Frieze Impact Prize in 2023 for his work using discarded produce boxes collected from grocery stores, often depicting himself, family or friends, drawing from his experience picking apples, asparagus and cherries in Washington State to fund his art education.

We're just a week away from Frieze LA, when East Coast dealers and local artists alike descend upon the Santa Monica Airport, but this isn't Renée Reizman's first rodeo. Since the critic and artist moved to the area almost 15 years ago, she's witnessed blue-chip New York galleries set up shop and sideline the irreverent, DIY spaces that shape the local art scene. Without these spaces, Reizman writes, she would not have discovered what art can be outside of the white cube.

He's an artist that was a major presence in Los Angeles art for almost 50 years, one of the best sculptors to emerge in this town. But he hides in plain sight. Not enough people know about what makes him the artist that he is. When we look closer at Bob's work, he was an artist that was a part of the discussion here in Los Angeles for a very long time.
