Paris Glows Rothko Red and Other Autumn Art Shifts
Autumn’s art calendar is bursting with exhibitions that flip the script on what museums can be. In Paris, Mark Rothko’s color-soaked canvases return after two decades, tracing his evolution from moody portraits to the meditative blocks that made him a legend. New York’s Frick Collection spotlights Barkley L. Hendricks, whose luminous portraits echo Old Master grandeur while pulsing with modern swagger. Meanwhile, Munich’s Haus der Kunst dives into immersive environments crafted by women artists, reconstructing spaces where feathers, color, and sound reshape the very idea of art as experience. From São Paulo’s sweeping Indigenous art survey to Seoul’s cross-temporal dialogues in Suki Seokyeong Kang’s installations, this season’s shows are less about static masterpieces and more about art in motion—stories, identities, and spaces constantly remade. This fall, museums aren’t just displaying history; they’re inviting visitors to step inside it.
