@KarmSumal The power of sport . . . *and* art! The two together are powerful doors that open the community and region even wider to the world. Investments into both these arenas will pour over into sectors such as culture, tourism, entertainment, and other key industries. @CityofVancouver

"Art is, in a way, an addiction. You dig for something you can never quite reach, a state that may not even exist, a liberation from something, you can’t define."

"What interests me is the opportunity for all of us to become something different from what we are, by constructing spaces that contribute something to the experience of who we are."

Abbas Akhavan’s “Entre chien et loup” was the latest exhibition to grace the Canada Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. In 1958, the brand-new Canada Pavilion opened at the Venice Biennale, with talented Canadians still representing the nation at the 61st iteration of the event.

“It felt liberating creating art with my body. It was a liberation from art as a skillful practice.”

"Guggenheim Pop: 1960 to Now" unfolds in two phases, with additional galleries featuring contemporary collection works opening June 26.

This exhibition is organized by Lauren Hinkson, (@mamacurator) Curator, Collections, with support from Victoria Horrocks, (@ victoriahorrocks_) Curatorial Fellow, Photography, and Faith Hunter, Curatorial Assistant.

A day filled with creativity, connection, and time spent together 💛

Earlier this month, families joined us at the Guggenheim for a special Mother’s Day celebration inspired by “Carol Bove” and organized with Artists & Mothers. From artmaking and play to shared moments throughout the museum, the day invited visitors of all ages to slow down and experience the museum together.

In this recap, hear from Guggenheim staff Chitra Ramalingam, Director of Learning and Mona and Tadeo De Victoria about their reflections.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this meaningful day at the museum ✨

2026 marks 20 years of the Guggenheim's Asian Art Initiative ✨

Established in 2006 under the leadership of Alexandra Munroe (@alexandramunroe), the initiative has shaped exhibitions, acquisitions, scholarship, and public programs while building a global network of artists, curators, and scholars.

Through the work of Munroe, Curator Kyung An (@huikyungan), and the initiative’s many collaborators and supporters, the museum has acquired more than 150 works by 100 Asian and Asian diasporic artists since 2006.

Groundbreaking exhibitions including Cai Guo-Qiang: I Want to Believe (2008), The Third Mind: American Artists Contemplate Asia, 1860–1989 (2009), Gutai: Splendid Playground (2013), Art and China after 1989: Theater of the World (2017–18), and Only the Young: Experimental Art in Korea, 1960s–1970s (2023–24) have continued to expand conversations around global modern and contemporary art.

As the museum looks toward the initiative’s next chapter, this milestone honors twenty years of collaboration, research, and global exchange.

Vera Molnar, the Grand Lady of Digital Art, is finally getting her first-ever major solo exhibition at @ArtBasel this June! Since the late 1960s she’s been one of the true pioneers of algorithmic art and generative art. What makes her so special? Unlike most early digital artists who came from engineering, Vera built her practice on pure academic artistic training. For over 50 years she has explored the exciting tension between order and chance, structure and freedom, logic and play. Her geometric, algorithmic compositions have shaped the entire history of contemporary art. In June 2026, Oniris Gallery & Interface Gallery will present her visionary work in Basel. In the coming weeks we’ll share more about Vera, the artworks and our preparations for the show. #VeraMolnar #DigitalArt #GenerativeArt #ArtBasel #WomenInArt
