The Guggenheim, New York, will host a focused exhibition highlighting a concise group of Beatriz Milhazes’ paintings drawn from the Guggenheim’s collection and augmented by key loans. In her mural-like, abstract paintings – created through an innovative technique the artist calls ‘monotransfer’ – Milhazes constructs vibrant and dynamic compositions that balance abstract forms, organic patterns, and geometric structures on densely textured and intricate surfaces.

New artwork unveiled at Inujima 'Art House Project'

Yellow Flower Dream, a work by Beatriz Milhazes has opened in Japan on November 1st, 2018, at Inujima Island for the 'Art House Project - A-Art House', and also will be joining Setouchi Triennale 2019 starting from April 26th, 2019.  

Based on the artist's perception of the architecture of A-Art House as a 'sculpture uniting the surrounding community and nature', this work represents, through the use of colors overflowing with energy, a virtual landscape depicting the vitality of the geometry and daily life unfolding in Inujima's nature.

Inujima Art House Project was launched with the objective of inspiring the local community of Inujima, allowing them to experience the beautiful landscapes of everyday life and the familiar natural environments that extend beyond the artworks. This project was developed by artistic director Yuko Hasegawa and architect Kazuyo Sejima for the village on Inujima.

The Inujima 'Art House Project' is a part of art-related activities, Benesse Art Site Naoshima, conducted by Benesse Holdings, Inc. and Fukutake Foundation on the islands of Naoshima, Teshima and Inujima to create significant spaces in resonance with the pristine nature of the Seto Inland Sea region.
