The great Cindy Sherman has a show at Hauser & Wirth on Wooster Street in SoHo NYC. The Times took the time recently to do a long profile on her. I really enjoyed it. It also has a straight up photo of the artist and it was surprising for me to see.
David Shrigley has a very Shrigleyesque work in Australia that involves tennis balls. Click the link to see more to see what I mean by Shrigleyesque.
The Guardian has a review of a Robert Mapplethorpe photography show and they are not keen on it. I was not keen on the review. If you want to just skip that and check out the (NSFW) show, go here.
The National Gallery of Art in the US was granted a treasure trove of work by the artist Joseph Cornell. You can read more about that, here. (One of his boxes is pictured above.)
Finally the great artist Giovanni Anselmo, of the ‘arte povera’ movement, has died. You can read more about him and the movement, here.
