“Nam June Paik’s status as a pre-internet prophet is both reaffirmed and dissected in Tate Modern’s retrospective: the exhibition does a great job of showing Paik to be a thoughtful, but also impish experimenter; an artist who understood the need simultaneously to engage with and break apart the technologies with which he was working.” —Thomas McMullan, Frieze Magazine Frieze Magazine recently reviewed a major exhibition of work by Nam June Paik, currently on view at Tate Modern in London. The show brings together more than two hundred works from throughout Paik’s five-decade career—from robots made from old TV screens, to his innovative video works, and all-encompassing room-size installations.

The tour will be led by Serena Cattaneo Adorno, Gagosian director, and Alessandro Rabottini, acting deputy director of Miart, International Fair of Modern and Contemporary Art. The works in the show lay out Ruby’s critique of the authoritarian, exclusionary ideological underpinnings of Minimalism. He begins with familiar shapes valued by the Minimalists—simple tables and rectilinear blocks—but subverts them by defacing their smooth surfaces and exposing their physical means of production.

Stop by Gagosian’s special presentation, “Artists on the French Riviera,” which explores twentieth-century artistic life on the Côte d’Azur. The booth is an homage to the famous interior of the “Villa Santo Sospir” at Saint- Jean-Cap-Ferrat.

Opie’s intimate, highly personal imagery explores themes of family and identity, while Sherman—whose newly public Instagram feed has ignited an exuberant body of work—positions the cameo as the original selfie.

"Surrounds," opening soon at MoMA, will present eleven watershed installations by living artists from the past two decades. Sarah Sze's "Triple Point (Pendulum)," which was first exhibited at the 55th Venice Biennale, is one of the featured installations! The title, "Triple Point (Pendulum)," is borrowed from the term "the triple point of water," a reference to the state at which water can coexist simultaneously in three forms: steam, ice, and liquid. The swinging pendulum, which defines the boundaries of the work, also seems to threaten its potential destruction. This sense of precariousness is a central theme in Sze's work, as is the tension between wonder and anxiety generated by the profusion of information and objects in contemporary life.  __________ #SarahSze #Gagosian @themuseumofmodernart Installation view with Sarah Sze, "Triple Point (Pendulum)," 2013.

This is the artist’s first exhibition in Los Angeles! In her large-scale drawings, cast and carved sculptures, and site-specific installations, Trouvé assesses the relationship between memory and material, pitting the ceaseless flow of time against the remarkable endurance of common objects. Combining fragments from both natural and constructed ecosystems, she creates hauntingly familiar realms in which forest, street, studio, and dream coalesce.

Visit the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill, New York, to see the exhibition "Abstract Climates: Helen Frankenthaler in Provincetown,” currently on view through October 27. In 1950, at the encouragement of art critic Clement Greenberg, Helen Frankenthaler studied briefly in Provincetown, Massachusetts, with Hans Hofmann. Following her marriage to Robert Motherwell in 1958, she spent more than a decade of summers living and working there. "Abstract Climates: Helen Frankenthaler in Provincetown" presents key examples of Frankenthaler’s work, beginning with those made the first summer the artist spent at Hofmann’s studio school and going on to focus on the period from the late 1950s through 1969.
