Sitting adjacent to the entrance of @ngadc National Gallery of Art’s East Building in Washington, DC, Henry Moore’s monumental “Knife Edge Mirror Two Piece” epitomise the artist’s late period which was defined by powerful, complex abstract forms, experimentation with materials and scale, and a new dynamic relationship with architecture. Commissioned by the museum in 1973 to design a grand sculpture for East Building’s Pennsylvania Avenue façade, Moore developed Knife Edge Mirror Two Piece in collaboration with the building’s architect I.M. Pei despite his acknowledged aversion to architects and architectural commissions – perhaps a sign of his maturing sensibilities. That’s not to say that the 4-year process was all smooth sailing, Moore’s insistence on being able to see the sculpture from all sides that for all his meant that I.M. Pei had to redesign the original pedestal into a triangular promontory jutting out from the terrace.

Featuring 13 large-scale, media-based installations, “LUX: New Wave of Contemporary Art” is an immersive London exhibition that brings together 12 of the world’s most celebrated new media artists and collectives working with the latest audio-visual technologies. Organised by SUUM Project in collaboration with Fact, the exhibition unfolds at @180.studios, a Brutalist edifice in central London which has been transformed into a multipurpose venue and home to several creative brands. The installations, several of which are new commissions, blur the lines between the physical and virtual worlds and expanding the boundaries of interactive and immersive art.

Titled “Remember your Dreams”, the inflatable art installation that “landed” in front of @palais_galliera between October 15 - 24, 2021, invited visitors into a dreamlike maze that lulled the senses. Measuring 7 metres in height and 12 metres in depth, the giant installation was conceived by French artist Cyril Lancelin’s (@town.and.concrete) as a jumble of lilac-coloured spiralling tubes bundled into a stark, rectilinear volume. The artwork is the inaugural edition of “The Art of Dreams" a global series of interactive art and design installations by @porsche that explore the motif of dreams from different conceptual angles. We can’t wait for the next edition which is scheduled to coincide with next year’s Salone del Mobile in Milan.

Underpinned by abstract forms and muted, earthy tones, the minimalist-inflected work of Nashville-based artist Rebekka Seale @finea_studio is imbued with a soothing sensibility that unwittingly captivates you. From paper collages and oil paintings, to ceramics and hand-dyed tapestries, the simplicity of Seale artworks belie a tactile beauty and inner harmony.

Named after a village on the Cycladic Island of Tinos, “Volax” at @carwangallery in Athens presents the latest work of @objects_of_common_interest, a series of life-size lighting and seating pieces inspired by the large granite boulders that dot the village’s wind-swept landscape. The collection marks the studio’s first ever use of wood, featuring a series of low chairs, benches and side tables whose abstract, geometric forms and monolithic design defy categorization. Monumental yet playful, primitive yet sophisticated, the pieces comprise a sui generis sculptural garden amid the gallery’s crumbling industrial setting, creating “moments of unfamiliar simplicity”.
