On Kawara: One Million Years (Past and Future)

On Kawara

Two readers, a man and a woman, take turns counting years out loud inside the glass-walled Auditorium. Past toward present, present into future. The 1860s vitrines around the rotunda hold Today paintings and their clipped newspapers. Slow viewing rewarded.

Paris Photo 2025

First full edition under the restored glass vault. 179 galleries, 43 publishers, the Emergence sector upstairs putting Bérangère Fromont and Louis Porter alongside established names. Jackson Fine Art pulled unseen silver prints from Sally Mann's At Twelve. Cob Gallery took a booth for Jack Davison's gravures.

Yayoi Kusama

Yayoi Kusama

Switzerland's first major Kusama, running through November with over 300 works. Narcissus Garden back on the pond, 130-odd pieces never before shown in Europe, two new Infinity Mirrored Rooms commissioned for the occasion. The park dots itself.

Nan Goldin: This Will Not End Well

Nan Goldin

Eight slideshows in eight buildings, each a separate Hala Wardé pavilion inside the Navate. Sisters, Saints, Sibyls sits in a Cubo whose 20-metre ceiling recalls La Salpêtrière. The Ballad runs in its 2022 version. New to Europe: You Never Did Anything Wrong, her first abstract work, and Stendhal Syndrome after Ovid.

Turner and Constable: Rivals and Originals

170 paintings and works on paper for the 250th anniversary of both births. Turner's 1835 Burning of the Houses of Lords and Commons, absent from Britain for a century, hangs near Constable's The White Horse. Sold out on opening weekend. Constable's sketching chair is in the vitrine.
