10 unmissable art shows ending soon

With summer approaching, many exhibitions are coming to an end: here’s a shortlist of the truly unmissable ones, mostly in Italy but also across Europe — from the invisible artist Luigi D’Eugenio to the photography show curated by Cattelan and the works of Anselm Kiefer.

In the midst of spring, summer vacation plans occupy a good chunk of our free time: whatever the destination, each trip requires timely organization in building an itinerary, including museums, restaurants, and must-see places, so that we do not leave with the bitter feeling that we have forgotten something.

But the coming warm season also brings with it the closing of many exhibitions as we wait for summer programming to begin, and there is much to see around in major European cities: From the works of invisible artist Luigi D'Eugenio in the exhibition curated by Roberto Cuoghi at Ordet in Milan, to the photography that “makes you happy” on display at Villa Medici curated by Maurizio Cattelan, to the pioneering women artists of digital art in Vienna: the exhibitions going on in Europe these days range in contemporary themes, including poetry, technology, personal and collective memory, and activism.

Don't miss Anselm Kiefer at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, waiting for the exhibition coming to the Palazzo Reale in Milan in 2026, Alfredo Jaar's installation in Berlin, and Precious Okoyomon's inner landscapes in Bregenz.

Domus has selected ten exhibitions worth seeing in Europe in the coming weeks before they close, perfect chances to plan a weekend getaway and shut down your PC for a few days.
