The Centre for Contemporary Arts in Glasgow, Scotland, will be closed for the rest of the week after a pro-Palestine protest held in the institution’s courtyard on Tuesday afternoon.

Art Workers for Palestine Scotland organized a sit-in at CCA that was intended to last the entire week, calling for the CCA to support the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel amid Israel’s ongoing war in Palestine, according to the Art Newspaper. (CCA’s board had not backed the campaign earlier this month.)

Law enforcement was called to assist museum security staff in clearing the sit-in. According to the Glasgow Times, “three police buses, four vans, and a patrol car [were] deployed to the scene.”

In a statement, Art Workers for Palestine Scotland said, “During a family-friendly reading and Arabic writing lesson outside the premises, CCA called the police who violently escalated: kettling members of the public, brutally arresting an elderly woman, and unforgivably putting their hands on us. Earlier, CCA’s internal security assaulted and tackled an art worker to the floor for entering the public space of the courtyard.”

The CCA’s board posted its own statement on Tuesday, saying that the institution was “closed to the public due to security and safety concerns, following a rapidly evolving situation involving an intended occupation of our courtyard space. Law enforcement was called in response to a forced entry, and the building was secured. We regret the disruption caused by today’s events and the impact on all those involved inside and outside of the building.”

On Wednesday, CCA said it would be closed for the rest of the week, adding, “This is not a decision we take lightly, but we recognise the need to pause. The temporary closure will allow us to prioritise the safety and wellbeing of our staff and partners, and to create space for reflection. We understand the strength of feeling being expressed by our community, and we remain committed to engaging with this moment thoughtfully.”

This fall, Ai Weiwei will realize a new work in the Ukraine about the country’s ongoing war with Russia.

Titled Three Perfectly Proportioned Spheres and Camouflage Uniforms Painted White, the work will be on view at Pavilion 13, a Soviet-era exhibition space in Kyiv, from September 14 to November 30. The site-specific work is commissioned by Ribbon International, a nonprofit focused on supporting contemporary and historic Ukrainian art and culture.

“In this era, being invited to hold an exhibition in Kyiv, the capital of a country at war, I hope to express certain ideas and reflections through my work,” Ai said in a statement. “My artworks are not merely an aesthetic expression but also a reflection of my position as an individual navigating immense political shifts, international hegemonies, and conflicts. This exhibition provides a platform to articulate these concerns. At its core, this exhibition is a dialogue about war and peace, rationality and irrationality.”

According to the release, the work will resemble the sphere-like icosahedron sculptures of his “Divina Proportione” series (2004–12), which was inspired by Leonardo da Vinci’s mathematic illustrations. A 2006 edition was made of sought-after huanghuali wood, with one version now belonging to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and another coming to auction in 2022.

For the Kyiv presentation, Ai will exhibit three of these works, which will be made of metal and encased in a modified camouflage fabric that will include animal motifs. The fabric will then be “painted over in thin white paint, a second layer of camouflage,” according to a release.

“Of course, whenever you cover something there’s still something underneath,” Ai’s statement continues. “So I give extra meaning to how we’re dealing with reality and which layer of reality we’re dealing with. And is reality just what are we seeing or what we understand?”

Ai is currently the subject of a retrospective, “Ai, Rebel: The Art and Activism of Ai Weiwei,” at the Seattle Art Museum. In a review for Art in America, critic Louis Bury wrote that the exhibition “holds a mirror up to recent liberal paradigms of political art, and unwittingly suggests their symbolism is in part compensatory, offering an aesthetic outlet for feelings of powerlessness.”

The Armory Show has announced the more than 230 exhibitors set to participate in its upcoming edition, scheduled to run September 5–7 at the Javits Center in New York, with a VIP preview on September 4.

This edition marks the first under the direction of Kyla McMillan, who joined the Armory Show last July, after its 2024 exhibitor list had been announced. Among the changes that McMillan will introduce are a new floor plan, an additional section, and a reconfiguration of its section for large-scale works.

“The 2025 edition of The Armory Show will build on our legacy with a program rooted in New York’s cultural vitality and shaped by dialogue between American and international perspectives,” McMillan said in a statement. “This upcoming edition looks to provide expanded points of access for a range of collectors. Through newly imagined formats, the fair will foster deeper connection and discovery.”

This year’s edition will see more than 20 exhibitors returning after a hiatus, including White Cube, Andrew Kreps, Esther Schipper, and Instituto de Visión. Additionally, some 55 galleries will be participating for the first time, including Skarstedt, Megan Mulrooney, ILY2, Superposition Gallery, Martha’s, and JO-HS.

Other leading galleries who will show at the fair are 303 Gallery, Ben Brown Fine Arts, James Cohan, Garth Greenan Gallery, Mariane Ibrahim, Kasmin, Sean Kelly, Victoria Miro, Nara Roesler, Michael Rosenfeld, Silverlens, Templon, and Vielmetter.  

The floor plan revision will see the fair’s Solo section, for single-artist presentations, intermixed within its main Galleries section. Galleries in the Solo section include Catharine Clark Gallery, Luis de Jesus, SMAC Gallery, and Spinello Projects.

Dealer Ebony L. Haynes, senior director at David Zwirner and 52 Walker, will organize a new section, called Function. This section will look at how “artists both engage with and puncture the tenets of design,” according to a release. Haynes has lined up nine galleries for the section, including 56 Henry, Corbett vs. Dempsey, House of Gaga, Marinaro, and Silke Lindner, winner of this year’s Gramercy International Prize, which comes with a free booth for a New York gallery that has never before participated in the Armory Show.

The Platform section this year will be led by Souls Grown Deep, the nonprofit dedicated to promoting Black artists from the American South, with its chief curator Raina Lampkins-Fielder organizing the large-scale works that will be on view. (The participating artists and their galleries will be announced at a later date.)

The Focus section, organized by Jessica Bell Brown, executive director of the Institute for Contemporary Art at Virginia Commonwealth University, will also look at artists from the American South. Galleries taking part include Timothy Hawkinson Gallery, The Hole, K Contemporary, What If The World, and Wolfgang Gallery.

The Armory Show will also include two additional sections. Rebecca Camacho Presents, 1969 Gallery, Fragment, kó, Kendra Jayne Patrick, and Hannah Traore Gallery will feature in the Presents section, for galleries less than 10 years old. And the Not-for-Profit section will include the Lower East Side Printshop, Tierra del Sol Gallery, and the Storefront Center for Art and Architecture, which has won the fair’s Armory Spotlight award.  

Additionally, Carnegie Museum of Art director Eric Crosby will lead the fair’s eighth Curatorial Leadership Summit.

In a statement, Kristell Chadé, the executive director of fairs for Frieze, which has owned the Armory Show since 2023, said, “the Armory Show holds a singular place in New York’s cultural and commercial landscape, engaging the city’s seasoned collectors and institutions. In appointing Kyla as Director, we recognised her curatorial intelligence and her clear understanding of what drives a fair’s success. Her leadership reinforces The Armory Show’s identity as a distinctly American fair, shaped by New York’s pace, rigour and reach.”

The Bienal de São Paulo has named the 120 artists who will be included in the upcoming 2025 edition, which will open on September 6 at the Ciccillo Matarazzo Pavilion.

Taking the title “Not All Travellers Walk Roads – Of Humanity as Practice,” the exhibition is “founded on active listening to humanity as a practice of constant displacement, encounter, and negotiation,” according to a press release. The Bienal’s curatorial team, led by Bonaventure Soh Bejeng Ndikung, were inspired by bird migration patterns for selecting the participating artists. These include the red-tailed hawk across the Americas, the ruff between Central Asia and North Africa, and the Arctic tern’s polar routes.

“This methodological process helped us avoid classifications based on nation-states and borders,” Ndikung said in a statement. “By studying birds’ navigation skills, their impulse to migrate across land and water, their survival instincts, their expanded sense of space and time, and their urgency and agency, we were able to engage with artistic practices in different geographic regions while reflecting on the meaning of bringing humanity together in the context of the 36th Bienal de São Paulo.”

Among the most high-profile names included in the exhibition are Isa Genzken, Firelei Báez, Wolfgang Tillmans, Forensic Architecture, Frank Bowling, Korakrit Arunanondchai, Laure Prouvost, María Magdalena Campos-Pons, Meriem Bennani, Nari Ward, Olu Oguibe, Oscar Murillo, Otobong Nkanga, Precious Okoyomon, Raven Chacon, Sharon Hayes, and Cynthia Hawkins.

There are 19 artists currently based in Brazil, and they include Aislan Pankararu, Maxwell Alexandre, Antonio Társis, Juliana dos Santos, and the collective Vilanismo. The artist list also includes 20 deceased artists, including Bertina Lopes, Ernest Cole, Ernest Mancoba, Heitor dos Prazeres, Huguette Caland, Hamid Zénati, and Mohamed Melehi.

Rivers—like the Amazon, the Thames, the Hudson, and the Limpopo—also served as another touchstone in selecting the participants as a way to map their origins and the routes they have taken in their careers.

“Water is fundamental to human existence and the basis of life,” Ndikung’s statement continues. “Despite humanity’s efforts to control the flow of water and the migration of birds, all waters are connected, and birds still migrate without passports or visas. Humans could be better if they learned from other beings.”

Frieze has named the more than 280 exhibitors from 45 countries that will participate in its two October fairs, Frieze London and Frieze Masters, in the British capital. The two fairs will run concurrently on opposite ends of Regent’s Park from October 15 to October 19.

Around 160 galleries will participate in Frieze London, while some 120 will be at Frieze Masters across multiple sections. This year’s edition of Frieze Masters will be the first under the direction of Emanuela Tarizzo. Organized by independent curator Fatoş Üstek, Frieze Sculpture will once again return to the English Gardens in Regent’s Park, running September 17 to November 2.

Among the blue-chip international participants in Frieze London are Gagosian, Pace, Hauser & Wirth, David Zwirner, Lisson Gallery, OMR, Thaddaeus Ropac, Southern Guild, White Cube, and Michael Werner. Frieze London also include 58 London-based galleries like The Approach, Arcadia Missa, Carlos/Ishikawa, Sadie Coles HQ, Thomas Dane Gallery, Hollybush Gardens, Maureen Paley, and Victoria Miro.

Frieze Masters will feature Ben Brown Fine Arts, Galleria Continua, Eric Firestone Gallery, Hauser & Wirth, The Mayor Gallery, Mazzoleni, Pace Gallery, Ortuzar, Proyectos Monclova, and Salon 94.

In addition to the main Galleries section, each fair has curated sectors. At Frieze London, there will be Artist-to-Artist, consisting of six presentations in which one artist nominates another. Those include Ana Segovia, nominated by Abraham Cruzvillegas, at Kurimanzutto; René Treviño, nominated by Amy Sherald, at Erin Cluley Gallery; and Ilana Harris-Babou, nominated by Camile Henrot, at Dreamsong. The Editions section will include five exhibitors like Cristea Roberts Gallery and STPI.

Organized by independent curator Jareh Das, the curated section will take the title “Echoes in the Present” and will focus on artists from Brazil, Africa, and their diasporas. Participating galleries include Galerie Atiss Dakar, Simões de Assis, Mitre Galeria, Nara Roesler, and Fortes D’Aloia & Gabriel. Additionally, the Focus section, for galleries in business for up to 12 years, will feature several first-time exhibitors, including Bombon, Coulisse, Cylinder, Gathering, Kayokoyuki, Eli Kerr, and King’s Leap.

“Frieze London this year deepens our commitment to artists shaping the future of contemporary art, and continues to foreground practices that challenge, inspire and expand how we think about art today,” said Eva Langret, Frieze’s director for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, in a statement. “Drawing on the spirit of London’s restless creative pulse—championing bold ideas and setting the pace for curatorial innovation—the fair reinforces the city’s status as a globally recognised centre of contemporary culture.”

At Frieze Masters, the Spotlight section will feature presentations of 20th-century artists and is organized by Valerie Cassel Oliver, curator of modern and contemporary art at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. Among the artists set to be exhibited are Helena Almeida (at Galeria Francisco Fino), Ha Bik Chuen (Rossi & Rossi), Agustin Fernandez (Jeremy Scholar), Eleonore Koch (Almeida & Dale), Bertina Lopes (Richard Saltoun Gallery), Nalini Malani (Volte Gallery), and Cildo Meireles (Galatea & Luisa Strina).

Meanwhile, the Studio section will be organized by Sheena Wagstaff and Margrethe Troensegaard and feature artists like Anju Dodiya (at Vadehra Art Gallery), Samia Halaby (Sfeir-Semler Gallery), and R. H. Quaytman (Miguel Abreu Gallery).

“It’s a privilege to lead Frieze Masters into this next chapter,” Tarizzo said in a statement. “From ancient art to 20th-century icons, the fair will showcase works that speak across time and place, inviting collectors and audiences to discover the depth, beauty and power of art history. I’m excited to welcome visitors to an edition shaped by both history and fresh perspectives.”

Hauser & Wirth has announced its global representation of Spanish sculptor Cristina Iglesias. The gallery will include a new work, Entwined VI, by the artist in its booth at Art Basel later this month and will mount an exhibition for her at its London gallery in October.  

The representation deal means she will depart Marian Goodman Gallery, which has shown her for over two decades. Iglesias is the latest high-profile artist to leave Marian Goodman in the past few years, with the most recent one being William Kentridge, who also joined Hauser & Wirth last year.

Iglesias has become known for creating site-specific installations that transform the environments in which they are installed. These have taken the form of suspended pavilions, hedge-like mazes made of bronze and steel, hanging sheets of lattice that play with light and shadow, aluminum casts of vegetation that seems to sprout from out of the floors and walls, and more.

“I am interested in the symbolic connotation of growth and metamorphosis,” Iglesias said in a statement. “The growth of living creatures has its own rhythm and is unstoppable. However, we constantly affect the environments in which we exist, and not always in a positive way. The idea of slowing down proliferation, solidifying millennia of evolution within layers of hardened matter puts our temporal existence into perspective.”

Her work has been widely exhibited internationally. She represented Spain at the 1986 and 1993 Venice Biennales and participated in the 1990 and 2012 editions of the Biennale of Sydney, the 2003 Taipei Biennale, the 2003 Carnegie International, and the 2006 Site Santa Fe International. In 2020, she was awarded the Royal Academy of Arts’s Architecture Prize, which came with an exhibition that opened at the London institution in 2022. In October, the Fundació Catalunya La Pedrera in Barcelona will open a solo show for her.

“Over the course of her career, Cristina Iglesias has forged an extraordinary visual language that feels simultaneously unexpected and inevitable,” Hauser & Wirth president Marc Payot said in a statement. “She combines the conventional matter of sculpture—familiar materials such as glass, steel, bronze—with non-traditional like water and sound to produce works as powerfully mystical as they are muscular. And as her landmark public commissions prove, she possesses a rare sensitivity to the poetic potentials of natural and architectural space.”

The 2025 edition of Frieze Seoul will bring together 120 galleries from more than 30 countries.

The fair’s fourth iteration will once again coincide with Kiaf Seoul, which focuses on the Korean art scene. Both fairs will run at the COEX convention center from September 4–6, with a preview day on September 3. (The fair will also conflict with the Armory Show in New York, which Frieze acquired in 2023.)  

Frieze Seoul will once again be split into three sections: the main Galleries section, with 90 exhibitors; Focus Asia, for 10 solo presentations of emerging artists; and Frieze Masters, 20 booths featuring work the Middle Ages to the 20th century.

“The fair has quickly become an essential meeting point for Korean and international audiences, and this year’s programme promises to further deepen those exchanges—not only within COEX but across the entire city,” Frieze Seoul director Patrick Lee said in a statement.

Among the blue-chip participants in the main section are Gagosian, Hauser & Wirth, Pace Gallery, David Zwirner, White Cube, Gladstone, Thaddaeus Ropac, Lehmann Maupin, Sprüth Magers, and Esther Schipper. Leading Korean galleries include Gallery Baton, Gallery Hyundai, Jason Haam, Johyun Gallery, Kukje Gallery, P21, PKM Gallery, and Whistle, while major dealerships from across Asia include Antenna Space, Galerie Quynh, Kiang Malingue, STPI, Take Ninagawa, and Taka Ishii Gallery.

Five galleries have graduated from the Focus Asia section to the main section: A-Lounge Contemporary, Barakat Contemporary, Cylinder, G Gallery, and SAC Gallery. Similarly, the fair will have 20 first-time participants in the main section, including 10 Chancery Lane Gallery, The Breeder, Carvalho Park, de Sarthe, Make Room, and Ota Fine Arts.

Focus Asia exhibitors include Shanghai’s Linseed, Tokyo’s Parcel, and Seoul’s Gallery Planet, while Frieze Masters will feature booths for A Lighthouse called Kanata, Bhak, Gana Art, Les Enluminures, Spurs Gallery, and Tokyo Gallery + BTAP. This iteration of Frieze Masters, which has a standalone fair each October in London, is the first since Emanuela Tarizzo joined the fair last month.  

In a statement, Kristell Chadé, Frieze’s executive director of fairs, said, “Frieze Seoul is the cornerstone of our presence in Asia—a fair that defines our ambitions in the region and plays a vital role in the wider Frieze calendar. The fair reflects our long-term commitment to Seoul and its cultural community, and our recent collaboration with Kiaf at EXPO Chicago is a powerful example of how we work to champion artistic voices from across Asia on the global art scene.”

Correction, May 29, 2025: An earlier version of this article stated there were 116 exhibitors based an incorrect release provided to ARTnews. There are, in fact, 120 exhibitors. This article has been updated to reflect that.

Correction, May 30, 2025: An earlier version of this story incorrectly matched five artists in the Focus Asia section with their presenting galleries.

Tony Karman, the longtime director of Expo Chicago, will step down from his role at the end of June, the fair announced in an email. Karman will keep his title of president, serving in an advisory role, while Expo searches for a new director.

In its email, addressed to “friends and supporters” and reviewed by ARTnews, Expo Chicago described Karman’s tenure as “14 remarkable years as a driving force behind the fair.”

In a statement included in the email, Karman said, “When I founded EXPO CHICAGO in 2011, our ambition was to renew Chicago’s storied tradition as a preeminent art fair destination—to innovate, to establish enduring programming and partnerships that would benefit the local, regional, and global communities of galleries, collectors, curators, and institutions, and to consistently support our exhibitors and the artists they represent. I remain deeply proud of all that we accomplished, and of the distinct honor it has been to work alongside an extraordinary group of individuals, each of whom contributed meaningfully to this legacy.”

This leadership transition is the first major one to affect Expo Chicago since its acquisition, along with the Armory Show in New York, by Frieze in July 2023. At the time of the sale, Frieze said both fairs would maintain their current teams, with Karman at the helm at Expo Chicago and Nicole Berry for the Armory Show. Berry departed the latter fair in March 2024 for a development role at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles; Kyla McMillan was named as her successor that July.

Frieze itself has also gone through an ownership change, having been sold earlier this month to a new company founded by Ari Emanuel, who had originally acquired Frieze via Endeavor Group Holdings when he had been its CEO. That company is now fully owned by private equity firm Silver Lake, which since last year had been exploring selling off Frieze. Emanuel’s purchase of Frieze was reportedly valued at around $200 million.

Karman launched Expo Chicago in 2012, a successor to Art Chicago, which ran from 1980 until 2011 and was once considered the top art fair in the US. The most recent edition of Expo Chicago, which saw a number of sales from its 170 exhibitors and drew more than 35,000 visitors, ran last month.  

In a statement, Frieze CEO Simon Fox said, “I want to thank Tony for his dedication, professionalism, and energy at EXPO CHICAGO. I am delighted that this next chapter will ensure a seamless transition of leadership whilst retaining Tony’s tireless enthusiasm, positivity, and support for both the fair and the City of Chicago.”

“As I move into a new advisory role with Expo Chicago,” Karman’s statement continued, “I want to acknowledge the deep commitment Frieze has made to both the fair and to Chicago’s wider cultural landscape. I’m extremely grateful for the opportunity to continue supporting the team as they shape the future of the fair.”

Art Basel Paris has named the 203 galleries that will take part in its upcoming edition, scheduled to run at the Grand Palais, from October 24–26, with VIP preview days October 22–23.

Hailing from 40 countries and territories, this year’s exhibitors will again be split into three sections: the main Galeries section, which will have 177 dealers; Emergence, for 16 solo booths for emerging artists; and Premise, for nine presentations by 10 galleries that aim to challenge the art historical canon. Over one-third of the exhibitors operate a space in Paris.

Art Basel Paris will once again stage its Oh La La! Initiative, in which exhibitors rehang their booths on October 24–25. Additionally, this year will see the return of the fair’s public art exhibition in the Jardin des Tuileries, which was still closed last year after the 2024 Olympics.

Among the international blue-chip dealers in the Galeries section are Gagosian, Hauser & Wirth, Pace Gallery, David Zwirner, Acquavella Galleries, Blum, Sadie Coles HQ, Paula Cooper Gallery, Jeffrey Deitch, Gladstone Gallery, Marian Goodman Gallery, David Kordansky Gallery, Kurimanzutto, Lisson Gallery, Victoria Miro, Thaddaeus Ropac, Michael Werner, White Cube. Top Parisian galleries in the section include Balice Hertling, Galerie Chantal Crousel, Marcelle Alix, Mennour, mor charpentier, sans titre, and Air de Paris, which last month controversially pulled out of the fair’s upcoming Swiss edition.

The fair will also see nine first-time exhibitors in the section, including Paris-based Crèvecoeur, New York’s 47 Canal, Cologne’s Jan Kaps, London’s The Approach (London), Chapter NY, and Stevenson, of Amsterdam and Cape Town. Other first-time exhibitors to the Paris fair include Ginny on Fredrick and Blindspot in Emergence, as well as Michael Rosenfeld Gallery, Château Shatto, and a joint booth for Gordon Robichaux and Stars.

“The exceptional quality of this year’s projects is powerful proof of Art Basel Paris’ magnetism—and of the central role Paris and France continue to play on the global art market and the world of culture at large,” Art Basel Paris director Clément Delépine said in a statement. “We owe it to our galleries, visitors, and partners to deliver a stellar show, cementing its place as the cultural calendar’s unmissable Fall event, and we look forward to working towards this goal.”

This past winter, Jackie Amézquita had several test bricks arranged neatly on a table in her studio in Los Angeles. In a departure from earlier work, each of these bricks, made with soil and masa de maíz (corn dough), had been inset with a mixture containing other organic materials—blue pea flower, cocoa, cochineal, charcoal, bee pollen, coffee beans, achiote—that gave them brilliant hues of blue and mauve or deep tones of ochre and black. That so many biomaterials are easily accessible in LA speaks to the city’s history of migration and the legacies of colonialism, Amézquita said.

She started using soil in her work after a performance in which she walked from Tijuana to LA over eight days. Every time she finished a bottle of water, she’d fill it with soil. By the journey’s end, she had collected some 18 samples—and began thinking about her findings as an archive and a site of memory. She remembers wondering, “If Earth could speak, what would it say? What stories would Earth share?”

Amézquita recalled the creation myth in the Popol Vuh, in which, after some trial and error, the gods used corn to make the first humans. To make her bricks, she freezes them to hold their shape and then bakes them in an oven for several hours, flipping them every so often in a process she compared to cooking tortillas on a comal. After they’ve dried and before a second bake, she takes them outside to receive some light. “I think of the sun as giving life and other energy to the work,” she said.

It took her about two years to perfect the balance in her soil-and-masa bricks, which have figured in multiple works, including her 2023 installation El suelo que nos alimenta. The wall-size piece, commissioned by the Hammer Museum for that year’s Made in L.A. biennial, comprises 144 square bricks made with soil from each of LA’s neighborhoods and incised with drawings representing different communities.

Her brick-related works also evoke the history of migration, which is a central concern to Amézquita’s practice—especially as it relates to her family. She moved to LA from Guatemala in 2003, following her mother, who moved in 1987. Her grandmother migrated from Mexico to Guatemala during the Cristero War in the 1920s and lost her most important documents along the way. “She had to start again from the ashes,” said Amézquita, who added that her grandmother’s resilience got her thinking: “How can we rebuild the pillars of histories that have been erased, trying to understand and piece everything together?”

Such questions inspired her to introduce charcoal and ash into her work, just before the wildfires in January ravaged parts of LA and severely impacted many of her friends. She sees them now as a metaphor for regeneration. “We’re still standing,” she said. “We’re still holding on. We can create something out of what was erased or destroyed.”
