Water as inspiration, a place of longing and an elemental force: with “High Tide”, Musea Brugge brings fashion and contemporary art into a multifaceted dialogue at the new BRUSK from 30 October 2026 to 14 March 2027. Conceived by renowned fashion curator Karen Van Godtsenhoven, the exhibition marks the first time that fashion and contemporary art have been presented together on this scale in Bruges.

The sea connects and divides, fascinates and threatens at the same time. “High Tide” explores this ambivalence, spanning everything from sun-drenched beaches, sea creatures and mythological...

Paper is an everyday material, almost taken for granted – and at the same time one of the oldest carriers of our memories, thoughts and stories. In Papyrus, Jessica Backhaus makes this very material the starting point for a photographic body of work that is as reduced as it is sensual. Following Cut Outs (2021) and Plein Soleil (2024), the new book completes her trilogy on abstraction – and marks her tenth publication with Kehrer Verlag.

At a time when images increasingly exist on screens and paper is slowly disappearing from our everyday lives, Jessica Backhaus turns her attention to its...

What exactly is 'rude' – and when does it become good? In his photobook 'Rude in the Good Way', published by Loose Joints, Roe Ethridge turns the desire for images into the subject itself. Desire, consumption, sexuality, fashion and self-presentation flow together in a visual stream where high gloss and snapshots, Chanel and mouldy peaches suddenly make surprisingly good company.

For more than two decades, Ethridge has been one of those photographers who consistently refuses to choose between art and commerce. Fashion shoots, still lifes, private moments, screenshots and studio photographs...

They sit side by side – yet sometimes seem worlds apart. In 'Archipelago', Yolanda Del Amo transforms human relationships into composed photographic stages. Gazes fail to meet, bodies share the same space yet remain at a distance. Intimacy and alienation, belonging and autonomy exist simultaneously.

The title says it all: the photographer sees relationships as an archipelago of emotional islands – separate, fragile, yet connected by invisible structures. Working in the tradition of tableau photography, the New York-based artist creates narratively dense visual spaces reminiscent of tableaux...

Whoever is in London and in the mood for art – while also discovering one of the city’s most unusual houses – should put The Cosmic House in Notting Hill on their list. Until 18 December 2026, the house presents a site-specific installation of Isaac Julien’s new moving-image work “All That Changes You. Metamorphosis”.

And the setting could hardly be more fitting. The Cosmic House on Lansdowne Walk was the home of architectural theorist Charles Jencks and Maggie Keswick Jencks and is itself a manifesto of Postmodernism: architecture becomes a playful exploration of symbols, science,...

Bridges between Tradition and Modern Technology – On August 12, 2026, the catalogue of works aka catalogue raisonné of media artist Dagmar Varady was presented in the Cabinet Room of the State Chancellery and the Ministry of Culture of Saxony-Anhalt in Magdeburg, in the presence of the artist and publisher Lois Lammerhuber.

AI has long become part of the creative everyday in photography, post-production, fashion and advertising. But what is it doing to our visual culture – and to the way we create, read and trust images? This is where SCHIRN Kunsthalle Frankfurt’s major summer exhibition The World Through AI comes in.

Around 40 works by some 30 international artists explore the cognitive, psychological, political and ecological dimensions of artificial intelligence. Videos, photographs, sculptures and graphic works examine machine vision, facial recognition, training data, microwork, memory and imagination –...

Body, earth, fire, water, flowers – and the camera as witness. Tate Modern dedicates a major exhibition to Ana Mendieta (1948–1985), one of the most radical and influential multidisciplinary artists of the 1970s and 80s. More than 120 works bring together her iconic Silueta Series, photography and newly remastered films alongside rarely seen paintings and drawings, sculptures and reconstructed installations.

Mendieta dissolved the boundaries between body, landscape, performance, sculpture, photography and film long before such crossovers became commonplace. Her best-known “earth-body” works...

"Today, creating impactful visual content means combining the best of both worlds: real production and digital innovation. Hybrid visual production allows brands to be more flexible, efficient, and creative, blending live-action footage, CGI, virtual environments, AI-driven tools, and post-production techniques into a seamless workflow.

The result? Faster production times, greater creative freedom, and content that can adapt to multiple platforms and audiences. As technology continues to evolve, hybrid production is no longer just an option—it's becoming a strategic advantage for brands...

As the winner of the 2025 Prix Elysée, awarded by an international jury of experts, Hannah Darabi (1981), an Iranian artist based in Paris, explores Iranian folk dance as an act of identity resistance through photographs, videos, and archives interwoven with the social and political history of her homeland.

She creates series in which her images enter into dialogue with archives, texts, and objects, revealing the political complexities of contemporary Iran.

Inspired by Woman, Life, Freedom—a recent nationwide protest movement against the restrictive laws imposed on women by the Iranian...
