exhibition · 2026-04-07

Starting June 5, 2026, and running until January 10, 2027, the Guggenheim Museum in New York is set to unveil 'Guggenheim Pop: 1960 to Now,' curated by Lauren Hinkson. This exhibit aims to refresh the museum's Pop Art collection by juxtaposing it with contemporary art trends. A key focus will be on curator Lawrence Alloway's influence, particularly his role in the landmark 1963 show 'Six Painters and the Object.' Works by legends like Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Claes Oldenburg will be displayed alongside newer pieces, such as Yayoi Kusama's 2019 installation. Additionally, Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen's 'Soft Shuttlecock' will be back in New York after 25 years. The second phase, starting June 26, 2026, will highlight contemporary artists, including Maurizio Cattelan and Alex Da Corte.
