Pilar Zeta builds environments like dreams that feel like stepping into a thought mid-formation. Her sculptural works take shape in the form of portals and objects that invite direct engagement, as visitors are invited to walk through them and notice subtle shifts in perception.

"It's bizarre to watch people in this way - even in gay cruising areas you wouldn't stare at other bodies this intensely. Now, whenever I go to a concert, especially at the Berliner Philharmonie with its encircling seating, my gaze hovers over the audience as well as the stage."

"My paintings can be described as sculptural in nature, emphasising physical presence, weight and materiality."

When I finished art school, I thought I was going to do monumental sculpture, big works, and I did for a while. But what I started loving the most-actually always loved the most-was the start, where you figure out what you want to say.

Aliza Nisenbaum's vibrant portraiture portrays her subjects in bold chromatics, echoing her larger project, a celebratory mural for the Obama Presidential Center.

"In a time of unprecedented division, escalating conflict, and economic turmoil, President Trump focused on what truly mattered: remodeling the Lincoln bathroom in the White House," reads a bronze plaque affixed to the work.

Robert Therrien's 'Under the Table' is a 10-foot-tall sculpture that captivates visitors, inviting them to experience its scale and intricacies from below. The piece exemplifies Therrien's ability to transform everyday objects into monumental art.

"My process is a constant negotiation with gravity," says Soojin Choi. The artist creates intimate ceramic sculptures depicting a pair entwined in an unknottable embrace, their limbs a seemingly endless tangle.

By installing my sculpture Vertical Highways V03 in front of Rockefeller Center, I want to initiate a dialogue of art and architecture that resonates with the urban history of New York City.

Thaddeus Mosley carved wooden sculptures out of logs he salvaged from the Pennsylvania forest, transforming them into art during his spare time, driven by passion.

I have virtually no idea what the finished piece will look like until I actually begin working with the wood. As a result, the form often emerges as I carve, and I frequently change my plans midway through the process. Naturally, I keep the many failures a secret.

I was nine years old, and I felt like I lost that childhood. I felt like I became a kid when I looked at a TV this morning. Burn that image into your mind, his mother told him, knowing the city would never be the same. It was 2003, and mere days later, the United States and its allies would launch their invasion of Iraq, raining airstrikes down on the city.

Bringing together roughly 180 galleries representing 18 countries, the presentations together cover 120 years of art history. Using its distinctive fair model featuring halls dedicated to different art historical periods and dialogues, historically significant works from classical Modernism-comprised of pivotal movements from the late 19th- to mid-20th century like Concrete art, Art Informel, Pop art, and more-meet the dynamic field of contemporary art today.

It stands a hair shy of five feet tall and is a bit over one-and-a-half feet wide. Made of nine interlocking pieces of gray ribbon slate, it feels as though a small push would completely wreck it. Humpty Dumpty stands on three legs, but it looks two-dimensional. It has an ovoid shape, and it juts upwards like a flat rocket ship.

Until 29 March 2026 Pressure is the largest survey to date devoted to the American sculptor Richard Hunt (1935-2023) and focuses on his ambitious, material-forward practice between 1955 and 1989. It coincides with a growing interest in the Chicago artist's singular approach to dimensionality and transcendence; White Cube, which began representing his work a few weeks before his death, staged solo shows of his work in New York (in 2024) and London (last spring).

Henry Moore believed tactility to be paramount, "as an aesthetic dimension", to both the making and the experiencing of sculpture. He really wanted us to be able to touch his work. However, its value and importance now means that doing so in most museums would be considered a big no-no-and for anyone for whom touch provides sight, this is massively restricting.
