EROTICISM AND REBELLION - CYNTHIA COHEN IN MIAMI

The Shame (Behind the Scene) is Cynthia Cohen’s first solo show in Miami, at Dot Fiftyone Gallery. The exhibition is curated by Laura Isola. Cohen’s paintings regenerate the historical gaze on the naked female body, creating new relationships between the work and the viewer. She disrupts the logic of art history, reinventing the relationship between subject and observer, private and public. Her work simultaneously veils and unveils sexuality.

WEIGHTLESS: LEANDRO ERLICH’S DEBUT IN GERMANY

The famous Argentinean artist Leandro Erlich (b. 1973) transforms Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg’s exhibition hall into a fantastically surreal cosmos, playing with the notions of perspective and gravity.

Weightless, the artist's first solo exhibition in Germany, was conceived specifically for the Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg, as were most of the works on view.

WATER, CYCLES AND TRANSFORMATION AT THE VENICE BIENNALE

The 2024 Venice Biennale has taken a profound interest on cyclical themes, with water emerging as a dominant motif across exhibitions. In resonance to Pedrosa’s title for this year ‘Stranieri Ovunque’, we see water as a dominant locus for the subjects of travel, shared heritage and fluctuation. On itself, water is seen (as both a vital resource and a destructive force) at the heart of the pavilions representing Greece, France, and in Otero Torres’ Arsenale installation, Aguacero. These exhibitions delve into water’s duality: as a life-giver and a potential destroyer, as a symbol of both division and connection.
