After You. Roni Horn

‘Horn is not interested in movements, and she is not interested in producing work through incremental shifts. Hers is a practice guided by solitude and a hyper-responsive inner world tempered by a need for steadiness.’

Artist Keith Tyson on why he’s funding Oxford’s 400-year-old astronomy professorship

Lorna Simpson’s Full-Circle Return to Venice

‘In set and setting, so much of the work...complement[s] the environment of Venice in color, scale, and being in this city that is slowly submerging and surrounded by water. So it’s a lovely return, actually.’

Paul McCarthy: ‘The world is now an extreme absurdity. The work is a reaction to that’

'I think we both believe in the images of the drawings and the performances. It’s ultimately an attempt to make something that we believe in; we both see the world and art in a similar way. It is important, I think, that it affects us, that we feel it, and that it’s critical.'

'Works as brain circuits' Guillermo Kuitca presents his most personal series at ArtHaus

'I like the idea of mapping memory, because I imagine memories as brain circuits. We think about many things at the same time; some things we recognize, and others we aren’t even aware we’re thinking.'

'During a recent interview that began in the leafy courtyard of the gallery, Harris Norton shared the story of her collection, revealing the personal depth of her connection to the art and artists in the process. It’s a material history of a culture: one Harris Norton didn’t just witness or document, but actively built.'

Frank Bowling: Seeking the Sublime

‘In each, strong colours run down the canvas in an evocation of flowing water, marbling on the surface of the canvas to create beautiful textures and patterns.’
