Two days in New York and so much to see! Here I am highlighting New Museum’s exhibition “New Humans: Memories of the Future,” a show filled with visions of a post WW 2 world with echoes of earlier decades and reflections on the future as seen from today. To contemplate the place of humans in relation to machines and visionary thinking was both inspiring and frightening. This was my first visit since the museum reopened, and the building has truly special moments.I also had my first visit to Sotheby’s in the Breuer Building and saw the powerful selection of modern works coming up for sale next week. I am always a fan of Kandinsky, and they have a stellar one. And I saw the Guggenheim’s Carol Bove show curated by colleague and friend @kathbrinson. I only share one photo here because I was so busy enjoying the exhibition I didn’t take many pictures. This image shows a view of the High Gallery from the overlook, which puts the viewer somewhat eye to eye with the sculptures, a phrase I like using because “Eye to Eye” is a work by Louise Bourgeois that was in the retrospective Katherine and I worked on together so many years ago.I was excited to see a new body of work by Nick Cave @jackshainman in which the artist appears in the work and offers a multilayered dialogue with serving trays. I also want to mention the “must see before it closes” Matisse show @acquavellagalleries, open to 22 May.

This photo was taken at the opening of the show ZERO that I curated in 2014 at the Guggenheim. The exhibition was my dissertation come to life and for my mom and me, it represented a full circle of constant encouragement to reach educational and professional goals that we shared through every year of our life together. She was the best mother, teacher, and friend, who modeled strength and grace. I miss her every day and today wanted to celebrate Yvonne Hargis Fox Hillings.

She would have loved @ncartmuseum’s “Knowing the West” show with the seating area outside the galleries being almost a mirror of my childhood family room.For her, American Indian and Southwest art were reflections of her belief in the centrality of nature.I think of her as I walk through this majestic show that emphasizes women artists, which my mother was.

On view until August 9th, “Knowing the West” is part of the statewide America 250 celebration organized by @nc.dncr. @america250nc.

Some stunning interpretations of works in the People’s Collection! My Director’s Choice this year was the arrangement for a ceremonial sword with sheath, Yoruba artist, by Katie Whitlow, Gabby Adriano, and Barb Brusso of Daniel’s Florist, Raleigh. They captured the essence and beauty of the object while creating a powerful floral artwork. I also loved the response to our Robert Rauschenberg by the English Garden team (Ashley DeGeus, Michel de Fosse, and Gus Allen), which captured the essence of his work and helped us to continue celebrating the 100th anniversary of his birth.Also sharing responses to our Nevelson, Inness, Sisley, Courbet, Fly whisk, and Said.

The National Gallery of Art in Washington is currently hosting “The Stars We Do Not See: Australian Indigenous Art,” featuring a tour de force of works from the collection of the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne, where I had the honor of curating a Winter Masterpieces show of works from the Guggenheim’s collection in 2007. “The Stars We Do Not See” begins with a video inviting visitors to learn about the concept of Country, the nexus of land, skies, waters, knowledge,bodies, and Law.I was especially interested that the early 1970s marked a major moment when artists in the community of Papunya in the Western Desert began translating ritual designs into independent works of art.Featuring a range of media and art from the late 1800s to today, the show elucidates Indigenous history and art history in Australia. On view until March 1, 2026. @ngvmelbourne @nationalgallery
