Dana Schutz’ current exhibit, Jupiter’s Lottery, at David Zwirner in New York is her first with the galley, and it coincides with her survey at the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris, which I just had the privilege of seeing

The title of the exhibition is a reference to Aesop's fable, which tells a story emphasizing the idea that 'the greatest fools have always regarded themselves as the wisest men.'

Pictured is the work, Table Scene (2022)

Ida Applebroog, 93, has passed away. If you haven’t seen it, I’d highly recommend Beth B’s portrait of her mother “Call Her Applebroog” (2016), available on Amazon and other streaming sites. It was shown in conjunction with the artist’s solo exhibition “Applebroog Birds” at Hauser and Wirth in fall 2020.  B’s film explains a lot about the artist’s background: Ida Applebaum was the daughter of illiterate Orthodox Jewish immigrant parents whose religiosity had a repressive effect on her. Painfully shy, she married and became Ida Horowitz, had four kids, and at age 40 suffered a nervous breakdown that landed her in the psych ward of Mercy Hospital in San Diego. Upon release, she changed her name to Applebroog, left the family, announced her intention to become an artist, and moved to NYC. Beth was only fourteen at the time. The daughter’s deeply personal account, shot over a 15-year period, is an attempt to document and understand her mother. The film reveals, yet withholds—it contains huge gaps that must have been topics deemed out of bounds. Applebroog is a reluctant subject and moody as hell despite Beth’s good-natured attempts to coax her mother to be more forthcoming. The tension between them is at times palpable—as if the film might go off the rails at any moment. A viewer can’t help but respect Applebroog’s incredible artistic achievements given the grim circumstances of her upbringing. Her art became a form of therapy: fiercely confessional, feminist, and political. The film comes across as a loving portrait, but, on a personal level, Applebroog, can be trying at times. For Beth B, making the film was also therapeutic. She told an interviewer: “A lot of my films are about speaking certain truths that have been hidden or shamed out of us. By speaking the words it’s a cathartic experience for us individually, and for the people sitting and watching.” #hauserwirth #idaapplebroog #feminist #feministart #feministartist #multimedia #multimediaart #indiefilm #nycart #nycartist

Lari Pittman's latest exhibition at Lehmann Maupin Gallery showcases eight new works of fictional cities, each prominently featuring an egg motif throughout 

This motif serves as a feminine counterpoint to the dominant masculine architectural elements found in most major city skylines, such as obelisks and towers.

Pictured is the largest work in the show, measuring 33 ft in length
