The selected works focus on the political aspects of Polke’s work, demonstrating not only his precise analysis of his present, but also his unique skill as a critical commentator ahead of his time in works that are as relevant now, as when they were made.

The Body as Matter: Giacometti Nauman Picasso. Grosvenor Hill, London. 

Curated by Richard Calvocoressi, Gagosian Grosvenor Hill presents 'The Body as Matter: Giacometti Nauman Picasso', the first exhibition to bring together these three artists.

Toyin Ojih Odutola: Ilé Oriaku. Kunsthalle Basel

Michaël Borremans: The Monkey. David Zwirner

David Zwirner London presents new paintings by Belgian artist Michaël Borremans in an exhibition titled 'The Monkey'. In this new body of work, Borremans continues to explore surface and artifice in his careful consideration of mise-en-scène, combining technical mastery with subject matter that defies straightforward interpretation. Borremans' exquisite paintings are at once absurd and romantic, inspired by an 18th-century porcelain monkey from the Rococo period, he deftly satirises society with nods to Chardin and Watteau.

Pierre Huyghe: Liminal, Punta della Dogana

Pierre Huyghe transforms Punta della Dogana with his new exhibition 'Liminial' into a dynamic, sensitive milieu. The exhibition is a transitory state inhabited by human and non-human creatures that are constantly learning, changing, and hybridizing. Their memories are expanding with information captured from events, both perceptible and imperceptible. For Huyghe, the exhibition is an unpredictable ritual, where new possibilities are generated and coexist, without hierarchy or determinism.
