The show features pieces by participants in JASA's programs. The organization, which serves more than 40,000 older adults every year, offers art classes and creative workshops designed to bring people together while encouraging self-expression. The results will be on full display here, from paintings and textile work to other handmade pieces that reflect the artists' personal stories and styles.

The contemporary technology museum has emerged as a performative participant in the systems it seeks to document. The architecture of these institutions has become increasingly fluid and bold, often mirroring the velocity and complexity of the systems it houses. They operate as mediators between the human, the ecological, and the technological realms, transforming from encyclopedic warehouses into active educational engines.

With an annual operating budget of $7.5 million, the CJM got into major debt during the pandemic, taking out a $28 million loan. In November 2024, the organization announced that the museum would be closing and laying off 80% of its staff, and taking a year-long hiatus to regroup.

The new New Museum is many things: contemporary, perhaps, but also a science, history, anthropology, and many other museums in one. It echoes the desire of its patron class to own the world and its affiliated courtier class to deliver it to them on a silver platter, or encased in perforated metal, in this case.

The exhibit, which runs Jan.15-March 14 at the De Anza College museum, is presented in conjunction with Silicon Valley Reads and its 2026 theme, "Bridges to Belonging." Self, family and neighborhood portraits reflect South Bay Area faces and stories. Marie Cameron's "People in My Neighborhood" series grew from her desire to meet and celebrate essential workers and creatives in her hometown of Los Gatos. The portraits include her neighbor's caregiver, grocery store and café workers, an artist, an author and a small business owner.

Los Angeles has so much more to offer culture-wise beyond movies and music-it actually has more museums per capita than any other city in the United States, including Washington, D.C., and New York City. Part of the magic of L.A. is its stunning diversity, which equates to an exciting mix of subjects and art forms. From Miracle Mile's Museum Row to Downtown and beyond, there are museums in L.A. showcasing everything from cutting-edge art and contemporary craft to classic cars and Hollywood history.

Tara Donovan presents Stratagems at the Institute of Contemporary Art San Francisco (ICA SF), at the Transamerica Pyramid Center, installing a group of vertically oriented sculptures made entirely from thousands of recycled CDs. On view until July 31st, 2026, the exhibition is installed within the transparent Annex space. Stratagems enters into a deliberate exchange with the Transamerica Pyramid itself. The sculptures echo the skyscraper's verticality and reflective skin, while their recycled material introduces a counterpoint to the monumentality of the building.

There was no good reason to rename it, and in the end, I think the fundamental logic that went into that decision didn't withstand scrutiny or deeper analysis,

Featuring more than 70 works by a diverse array of artists, including June Clark, Jasper Johns, Faith Ringgold, Robert Rauschenberg, Shepard Fairey, David Hammons, Julie Mehretu, Dread Scott, and Hank Willis Thomas, For Which It Stands... challenges viewers to consider who the American flag truly represents, and whether justice is available to all. On view in Fairfield, Connecticut, from January 23 through July 25, the exhibition opens with Childe Hassam's "Italian Day, May 1918" - lent by Art Bridges - and concludes with a textile sculpture newly commissioned from Maria de Los Angeles. Emma Amos, Eric Fischl, Jane Hammond, and Glenn Ligon are among the many other artists whose work is represented.

The 31st edition of the LA Art Show is back this week at the downtown Convention Center, more than a month before Frieze, Felix, and Post-Fair roll into town. Although it is LA's longest-running art fair, the show is somewhat of an outcast, snubbed as pedestrian, too commercial, and out of touch with the cutting edge of the global art world. But at the rear of the cavernous exhibition hall, a pair of projects organized by curator Marisa Caichiolo gives visitors a sense of the fair's cultural and political relevance.
