84 Museum Exhibitions and Biennials to See This Fall
ARTnews’s roundup “84 Museum Exhibitions and Biennials to See This Fall” surveys major museum shows and biennials opening in the fall season, noting a strong curatorial focus on art made in response to global turbulence and violence. It highlights exhibitions connected to artists including Kurt Schwitters (a retrospective at Paris’s Musée Picasso subtitled “The World-Chaos”), Inji Efflatoun, Annemirl Bauer, Marion Wagschal, Ali Cherri, Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian, and Amar Kanwar. The list also points to historically oriented and revisionist projects such as the São Paulo Museum of Art’s “Historiás” series focusing on Latin America, Oslo’s National Museum foregrounding overlooked female Old Masters, and MUDAM Luxembourg examining postwar Japanese women artists. One featured example is “Ragnar Kjartansson: Politics of the Obvious” at Buffalo AKG Art Museum (September 3–January 31, 2027), which includes Kjartansson’s The Visitors (2012) and the newer work Sundays Without Love (2025).
