Sponder Gallery & Gino Miles spotlight in the newest edition of 1926, the exclusive magazine of The Boca Raton.

What started out as a generous installation of 15 sculptures throughout the property grounds in 2009 has ballooned into a far-reaching,n collaborative relationship with the Sponder Gallery, which continues to showcase important works of art in its on-property gallery. Deborah Sponder, president of Sponder Gallery, details the decades-plus relationship with The Boca Raton and highlights an intriguing new sculpture found on the property.

Alessandro Puccinelli's works are on view for the first edition of Photoclimat, a social and environmental photography biennial in Paris. From September 18 to October 17, 2021.

On the program: an exhibition bringing together more than thirty committed international artists as well as the major players in ecological commitment in France - NGOs, associations, foundations - to raise awareness among the public, especially the younger generations, of the urgency of the climate issue.

Eco-designed, open-air exhibitions with free access in many places in the capital and in institutions in Greater Paris. View Alessandro's installation at Place de la Bastille.

You may not be able to eat in Gwyneth Paltrow’s dining room or hang on Oprah's Montecito patio, but with more A-list decorators branching into restaurant interior design, you can tap into the style of the stars. Many designers best known for the celebrity projects in their portfolios have recently expanded to projects at eateries around the world. It’s an opportunity to showcase to a wider audience their prowess in pattern mixing, furniture and art sourcing, and creating a mood where you want to linger long after the final course. Because restaurants, of course, are about more than just design. These spaces also serve as places to gather for cocktails or enjoy delicious food. Below, we gather some examples of spaces where you can indulge in style.

Kick Off 2021 With These Artists That the Artnet Gallery Network Is Watching in January

This month, we're looking at artists working in Johannesburg, San Francisco, and beyond.

At the Artnet Gallery Network, we make it our goal to discover new artists each and every month, searching through the thousands of talented artists on our website and selecting a few we find particularly intriguing right now. Though making bold resolutions (like ones about leaving the house) might seem a tad presumptuous after last year, if one of your goals is to keep an eye on interesting talents, you can do so from home by exploring the Artnet Gallery Network and looking out for our monthly round-up of artists to watch. 

 
Check them out below—and happy art discoveries for 2021!

We had the good fortune of connecting with James Austin Murray and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi James Austin, how do you think about risk?
Taking risks are essential if you want to grow and succeed. A number of years ago I was invited by Madison Gallery in California to do an artist residency there and have a subsequent solo exhibition. At the time I was just starting to get noticed and it was a dream scenario. So I bet the house. What I mean by that is I took my life savings, which was about $50,000 and I spent every dime of it on that show. I bought dozens of panels and an embarrassing amount of paint and supplies. I cleared out my accounts and went to work. By the time I arrived back home I was living on credit card debt and suddenly felt very poor. The solo exhibition was months away. I had done the work and now had a hard time continuing working because of funds. I believed in my work and felt confident, it was still a scary time.

Whitehot Magazine | Disclosures: Donald Martiny, or Figures Without Ground

By DONOVAN IRVEN, November 2020

The art of Donald Martiny exists somewhere between painting and sculpture. We are confronted with a singular brushstroke, huge, a seemingly spontaneous, lavish eruption of color and texture on the wall. It is the mark distilled from painting, the formerly minute detail writ large, what we usually discover as a hidden and obscured part of the whole is made to be the whole itself, the entire work a gesture on the wall. 

Such dramatic works are fit for public art – Martiny is currently preparing to install a large work on the exterior of a building in Raleigh, North Carolina and is well known for his permanent displays in the lobby of One World Trade Center in New York City. But they also lend themselves to powerful aesthetic experiences in more intimate galleries, as will be evident in upcoming solo shows in March 2021 at the Scala del Bovoli in Venice, Italy.

doors to the public. Housed in Washington, D.C.’s historic Franklin School, Planet Word is the world’s first voice-activated museum, featuring immersive galleries and exhibits that will engage visitors of all ages in experiencing words and language from a wide range of perspectives. General admission is free.
