In this article we bring you a selection of 10 opening exhibitions around the world. Our list includes Interruptions Repeated, an exhibition by Almond Zigmund that spotlights installations that associate geometry, colors and patterns, the Michelle duBois Project assembled by artist Zoe Crosher that shows the endless archive of a woman who obsessively photographed herself throughout the 1970’s and 1980’s, Jörg Obergfell’s third exhibition, Towers and Trees, that focuses on the relationship between artificial and natural elements, Fires In The North by photographer Yuichi Takasaka that presents the amazing beauty of the Aurora Borealis, and an exhibition by Kathrin Longhurst that associates feminity and materiality to depict women of the revolution.

Almond Zigmund: Interruptions Repeated
at The Parrish Art Museum
Southampton, NY, USA
Aug 24, 13 - Sep 10, 13

For Interruptions Repeated, artist Almond Zigmund installs two large-scale sculptural works in the parlor of the Sag Harbor Whaling & Historial Museum. Bisecting the room, Zigmund’s blockade-like structures provide a dramatic contrast to the ornate plaster ceiling and carved wooden doorframes of this Greek Revival home. Almond Zigmund combines crisp geometry, vivid color, and intricate patterns in her architectonic drawings, sculptures, and installations. read more...

Elaine Reichek: A Postcolonial Kinderhood Revisited
at The Jewish Museum
Upper East Side - New York, NY, USA
Aug 23, 13 - Oct 20, 13

In 1993 the Jewish Museum commissioned Elaine Reichek to create an installation that explored her personal identity. She was a natural for the project: her work at the time was preoccupied with marginalized cultures—Irish, Native American, and other threatened peoples. Yet probing her American Jewish identity presented new complexities and paradoxes. read more...

Zoe Crosher
at California Museum Of Photography, UCR
Riverside, CA, USA
Aug 24, 13 - Nov 09, 13

The Michelle duBois Project is an extensive body of work by Los Angeles-based artist Zoe Crosher. Mining the seemingly endless personal archive of a woman who obsessively photographed herself throughout the 1970s and 80s, Crosher re-contextualizes the source material as a way to examine the fiction of documentary, the end of analog, and the impossibility of knowledge even in the midst of an endless accumulation of images. Zoe Crosher: The Further Disbanding of Michelle duBois is the project's first major solo museum presentation on the west coast and will feature works from the series "21 Ways to Mae Wested" and "Last Four Days and Nights in Tokyo" (both 2012). read more...

Aug 22, 13 - Sep 21, 13

Gallery EM is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of the German artist, Jörg Obergfell. This is his third exhibition as well as first solo one at Gallery EM. As the title 'Towers and Trees' implies, the artist searches the relationship between an artificial element like a building and a natural one like a tree, and shows such research in various mediums. With this, the artist is interested in buildings in a city and related architectural system, which cover the important part of his work becoming a main motif. read more...

Yuichi Takasaka: Fires In the North
at Art Beatus, Vancouver
Vancouver, BC, Canada
Aug 23, 13 - Oct 18, 13

We are pleased to present returning photographer Yuichi Takasaka’s second exhibition, Fires In the North, at Art Beatus (Vancouver).  Stunning and ethereal, Takasaka's photographs of the Aurora Borealis capture the sublime beauty of these mysterious visitors of the north. Although the northern lights has been studied and can now be explained in scientific terms – produced by photons released from charged nitrogen and oxygen atoms originating from solar wind that have been directed toward Earth’s poles via Earth’s magnetic field – one cannot escape the feeling of awe that is inspired by this phenomenon. read more...

at Gallery of Photography

The market is the central locus of the global economic collapse, and has direct bearing on all our lives in crucial ways. Yet it remains essentially invisible. Irish-born artist Mark Curran’s challenging new project examines global stock and commodity markets. Probing beyond the stylised iconography of the trading floor, it sets out to make visible the global functioning of the market. read more...

Michael Johansson: Stockholm
at Galleri Andersson Sandström Stockholm
Stockholm, Sweden
Aug 22, 13 - Sep 29, 13

Visually confined playfulness characterizes the art of Michael Johansson, an installation artist obsessed with the investigation of spatial possibilities. Everyday objects are dismantled, re-organized and perfectly arranged into color-coordinated puzzles, filling out select voids of any dimension. Just about any space is an invitation for Johansson’s cleverly executed and gravity-defying aesthetics. read more...

Kathrin Longhurst: Women of the Revolution
at Catherine Asquith Gallery
Melbourne, Australia
Aug 20, 13 - Sep 07, 13

While Longhurst’s figurative painting style is indebted to Socialist Realism, her female subjects are anything but sexless. The power of her work lies in a carefully balanced juxtaposition of opposing realities: the hint of nakedness, the supple flesh and doe-eye expressions of the women are in stark contrast to the harsh materiality of their headgear. So too is their model-like poses incongruent with the 5-pointed red star repeatedly featured, a common communist symbol used to represent the 5 ‘classes’ of socialist society. read more...
