My top 10 art reads from last week: artists interviews and that linger between past and future, ending and emergence.
Mar 21, 2026
Hi artsies,
This week felt like an in-betweener. Relatively quiet in the art news cycle. Even Banksy being unmasked didn’t cause the frenzy one might have expected. TEFAF Maastricht in the rearview mirror, Art Basel Hong Kong on the horizon.
These reads sit in an in-between space as well. Approaching the end, borrowing from what came before, waiting for what’s still to be seen:
This profile of Hurvin Anderson highlights his vivid landscape paintings and geometric abstractions ahead of a major retrospective at Tate Britain.
Lucy Beech and poet Logan February discuss their incantatory collaborative film, Out of Body, a study of waste and human porosity debuting at the New Museum.
This review of Louise Bourgeois explores her visceral gouaches and large-scale sculptures featured in the exhibition Echoes of the Morning at PoMo in Trondheim.
Matisse’s iconic late-career cutouts and simplified drawings are on display at the Grand Palais, Paris, from March 24th to July 26th.
We love a Peyton moment! Her transparent portraits and mythological paintings are currently on display in her solo exhibition, mountains in my heart (the death of Sarpedon) at David Zwirner in Chelsea.
In Seven Deaths, a series of melodramatic short films inspired by Maria Callas, the artist repeatedly succumbs to love at the hands of Willem Dafoe.
The career survey of Swiss-born American sculptor Carol Bove showcases her riveting compositions of industrial steel and aluminum at the Guggenheim through August 2nd.
In this artist profile, Collier Schorr explores the "porousness" of gender and sexuality through a suite of photographs, drawings, and films in her exhibition Problems and other stories, running at Modern Art in Paris until April 4th.
Meg Webster’s primordial sculptures made of organic materials like soil and moss are currently featured at Dia Beacon through April and appearing at Paula Cooper Gallery in May.
Hokusai and Hiroshige’s "pictures of the floating world" woodblocks are on display at the Whitworth in Manchester until November 15th.
‘til next week,

P.S. If you’re in NYC, don’t miss the Outsider Art Fair this weekend!
P.P.S. If you’ve read this far, this is my soft announcement that issue 50 will be my last. I’ll continue with some of this practice, but it will be taking another form. More on that later!
