Remember the sharks and fish armed with guitars and missiles on the facade of the Central Pavilion at the Giardini in the Biennale curated by Cecilia Alemani in 2022? Cosima von Bonin's humor returns to Italy, until April 2, with a solo exhibition in Ordet's new space at Via Lippi 4, designed by BB - Alessandro Bava and Fabrizio Ballabio. Von Bonin, a multidisciplinary artist born in 1962 in Mombasa, stands out for her rejection of rigid categorizations. Her installations conceal deeper reflections on themes such as alienation, gender issues and the excessive seriousness of the art world.

Until March 23, the Manica Lunga space at Castello di Rivoli hosts the exhibition “Mutual Aid - Art in Collaboration with Nature,” curated by Francesco Manacorda and Marianna Vecellio. Through the works of more than twenty artists, such as Robert Smithson, Tomás Saraceno, but also Vivian Suter, Giuseppe Penone, and Precious Okoyomon, the exhibition project explores the concept of mutual support between humans and nature as a key factor in evolution, challenging the division between culture and nature with multi-species works.

How has the concept of intimacy changed over the past four centuries? The Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris seeks to answer this question with the exhibition “L'intime, de la chambre aux réseaux sociaux,” curated by Christine Macel and Fulvio Irace with installation by Italo Rota. 470 works, including paintings, photographs, art and design objects, tell the story of the evolution of the private sphere and intimacy in relation to changes in society, where the boundaries between private and public, increasingly blurred, fuel a lively debate.

Ana Lupas (1940, Cluj-Napoca, Romania) has been one of the most relevant voices in Eastern European art since the 1960s. Inspired by folklore and ancient traditions, her experimental, humanist and deeply spiritual approach is a testament to her artistic strength and vocation despite the difficulties of complex political circumstances. The Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein is dedicating her the most extensive solo exhibition ever, with a selection of works from 1960 to the present. The exhibition is a co-production with the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.

A two-day performance exhibition that is a truly physical and transformative appropriation of museum space. Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt opens the windows of its usually closed gallery to flood the 140-meter-long space with light, which will be animated by performances and live actions, creating a dialogue between art and architecture, the human body and space. Naufus Ramírez-Figueroa, Maria Hassabi, Andrea Fraser, are just some of the names of the artists who will participate in this project that brings performance back to the focus of museum conversation.

The exhibition “There: a Feeling,” embracing the practice of American artist, writer and activist Gregg Bordowitz (b. 1964, Brooklyn), including video, installation, performance, poetry and prints, focuses on his ongoing engagement with writing as an activity of thought, transforming words into gestures, images, letters. In this solo exhibition, the artist features new site-specific works for Camden Art Centre related to his experiences, offering a reflection on perceptions and sensations through overlapping events.

Mire Lee (1988, Seoul) reinvents Tate Modern's Turbine Hall as an industrial womb. Reflecting on the building's previous life, “Open Wound” transforms the space into a kind of living factory, where human dreams and desires mingle with mechanical systems, with fabric sculptures suspended from metal chains. In the center, a motorized turbine emits a viscous liquid that is collected in a large tray to create new sculptures, new “skins,” which are wet, hardened and finally lifted. This process of production and decay unfolds from the interaction between machine and man, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in contradictory emotions: from wonder to disgust, from compassion to fear and love.

“Living Structures” is the first exhibition in the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art's new ‘Connecting Architecture’ series. The exhibition, open to the public through March 23, explores the collaborative work of contemporary architects with scientific disciplines in search of new ways to build in an already overdeveloped world. Three studios focused on biology and nature - ecoLogicStudio, Atelier LUMA and Jenny Sabin Studio - show, through experiments and installations, how to merge architecture and nature, learning from biological processes for a sustainable future. Their transdisciplinary approach radically reconsiders the relationship between architecture, design and production.

Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, in collaboration with Tate Modern, presents a major retrospective devoted to Yoko Ono (b. 1933, Tokyo), the artist and activist who pioneered conceptual and performance art. “Yoko Ono. Music of the mind” traces seven decades of her multidisciplinary practice, bringing together more than two hundred works, including installations, films, music and photographs, that reveal Yoko Ono's radical approach to language and art. The exhibition is also an opportunity to rethink the history of the city of Düsseldorf, and its connection to conceptual art and Fluxus.

“Velvet Terrorism: Pussy Riot's Russia” at the Haus der Kunst is the largest exhibition ever dedicated to the Pussy Riot collective and the first in a German museum. Born out of a meeting between Maria Alyokhina (founder of Pussy Riot) and Ragnar Kjartansson, curator of the exhibition, the question at the heart of the exhibition project concerns the meaning of resistance in art and the choice of stories that should be central to today's shows. Set up in the LSK-Galerie, a former bomb shelter, the exhibition offers an immersive experience with handwritten texts by Maria Alyokhina, videos, photographs and punk music.
