#AnnieAbrahams, the artist I've learned so much from, both in art and in life, is having a retrospective in the Netherlands! ➠ Ver Ver . Binding – the retrospective exhibition of @anniea.bsky.social, Kunstwerk Kolderveen, Nijeveen, 10 Oct - 28 Nov 2026 www.kunstwerkkolderveen.nl/exhibitions/...

A pixelated grayscale portrait of Annie Abrahams fills most of the image, overlaid with bright yellow and orange flame-like shapes around the face and head. On the left are two small grayscale portrait images. On the right, two stacked computer interface panels titled “Command Igor instead of Annie” and “Command Annie instead of Igor” display lists of text commands, including phrases such as “tell igor to sit,” “tell me how you love igor,” “forget commands,” “bark,” and “dance.” The image resembles a screenshot of an experimental early web artwork or interactive interface.

A tightly framed frontal portrait of a person wearing a vivid, fluorescent-red bob wig with straight, blunt bangs and chin-length sides. The person wears large, round black goggles with translucent turquoise lenses, through which the eyes are visible, and a black respirator mask covering the nose and mouth, with two large circular filter cartridges on either side. A black shirt is visible at the bottom of the image. The figure is centered against a plain white, lightly textured wall, with even lighting and a direct, expressionless gaze toward the camera.

We stopped in Karlsruhe and visited ZKM, where we saw the surprisingly intelligent and subtle Silver Egg exhibition and, of course, the ever-inspiring permanent collection. By the way, after many years, we got to see Stelarc's Exoskeleton again!

A large transparent spherical vessel, about the size of a person, is partially filled with vivid green liquid. Condensation covers the inside of the dome, while thick transparent tubes and polished metal pipes connect to the front of the structure, giving it the appearance of a futuristic laboratory device or bioreactor. The installation is displayed in a spacious gallery with wooden parquet flooring.

Stelarc's Exoskeleton robotic installation fills a dark gallery space. The large metallic machine resembles a giant six-legged spider, with articulated hydraulic legs extending from a central circular platform. A tall framework rises from the center, carrying cables, sensors, and mechanical arms. Bright spotlights highlight the silver structure, casting dramatic shadows across the parquet floor and black walls.

A digital artwork composed of five rectangular screens arranged in an irregular vertical formation against a black wall. The displays show luminous white particle clouds swirling across deep blue backgrounds, creating abstract, fluid forms that appear to flow seamlessly from one screen to the next. The minimalist presentation emphasizes the glowing motion and fragmented composition.

The astronomical clock in the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Strasbourg, one of the world's most complex mechanical clocks and an extraordinary scientific instrument.

A closer view of the central astronomical section of the Strasbourg astronomical clock. A large circular dial surrounds a painted model of Earth, while a dark blue celestial globe with metal rings sits in front, representing the heavens and planetary motion. Above, a smaller clock with Roman numerals is flanked by decorative angels and mechanical figures. Painted allegorical figures, carved sculptures, and finely detailed astronomical scales emphasize the clock's role as both a scientific instrument and a work of art.

Close-up of the ecclesiastical calendar mechanism within the astronomical clock in the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Strasbourg. Behind glass, a dense arrangement of interlocking brass gears and numbered wheels is labeled Comput Ecclésiastique. The mechanism calculates the ecclesiastical calendar, including the date of Easter and other movable feasts. Dark green marble columns, gilded trim, and painted Renaissance decoration surround the exposed machinery.

The precision-engineered components illustrate how the clock calculates differences between solar and lunar cycles. Reflections in the glass hint at visitors standing inside the cathedral.

Kazimir Malevich: Black Square (1915), Red Edition

A minimalist abstract painting featuring a large deep red square set against a plain white background. The square is slightly off-center and subtly tilted, with softly irregular edges that reveal its hand-painted character. Its matte, velvety surface absorbs light, creating a quiet sense of depth despite the absence of shading or perspective. The composition contains no figures, objects, or decorative details. The striking contrast between the saturated red square and the surrounding white field focuses attention on color, form, and spatial tension, evoking a restrained yet powerful visual presence.

The World Through AI, Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt www.schirn.de/en/exhibitio... The exhibition doesn't take risks. What I missed were radical, subversive, dissenting perspectives that rarely find their way into the mainstream. I kept looking for Duchamp's Fountain, and it was nowhere to be found.

Two people pose for a selfie in bright sunshine outside Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt. One person wears round black sunglasses with turquoise mirrored lenses and a black shirt, while the other wears a light-colored sun hat, purple sunglasses and a pale scarf. Both hold a hand above their eyes to shield themselves from the sun. Behind them, the large "SCHIRN KUNSTHALLE FRANKFURT" sign is mounted on a metal structure in front of the museum's brick façade.

Close-up of an abstract artwork in soft pastel tones with vivid turquoise, blue, purple and green elements. Organic, bulbous forms hang from thin, dripping lines against a pale background, surrounded by splashes of pigment, textured mineral-like clusters and fluid paint marks. The composition evokes microscopic life, fungi or alien vegetation without depicting recognizable objects.

Large-scale video projection showing a long, narrow industrial service corridor lined with concrete walls. Overhead, dense bundles of red, white and gray pipes and metal cable trays create a maze-like ceiling, while green directional arrows and safety signs punctuate the scene. The perspective draws the eye deep into the corridor, emphasizing its geometric, infrastructural character. The projection fills an entire gallery wall.

A long black wall covered from floor to ceiling with an intricate white infographic combining diagrams, symbols, charts, timelines and text about surveillance infrastructure, military doctrine and intelligence systems. The highly detailed visual resembles a technical blueprint or systems map, stretching across the gallery beneath exposed silver ventilation ducts.
