In my view, non-objective and abstract art have a special role in describing non-Newtonian reality—a reality in which our five senses are of little use.
We are pleased to inaugurate the 2026 season with Koyoltzintli's solo exhibition, How to Play a Broken Bone. Curated by Jess Wilcox and presented in partnership with River Valley Arts Collective, this new body of work continues to engage the artist's core themes, such as material memory, cosmology, and embodied knowledge.
The Al Held Foundation is thrilled to announce the donation of Noah’s Focus II (1970) to the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao just . Measuring 25 feet wide, this impressive large-scale work from Held's black and white period has taken up residence on the museum’s third floor, within a permanent collection presentation titled "Abstraction and Space," curated by Marta Blàvia.
Al Held’s 1989 woodcut “Pachinko” is now part of the permanent collection at the Syracuse University Art Museum. Syracuse alum and printmaker John Thompson ’72 has gifted 48 works of art to the museum. The donation includes pieces by Trenton Doyle Hancock, Niho Kozuru, Robert Freeman and Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, among other artists.
