Small Wonders: Reimagining British Art @ Hayward Gallery Touring, UK

Hayward Gallery is launching a new touring exhibition as part of the Southbank Centre’s 75th anniversary celebrations. Bringing together new and existing work by 50 acclaimed artists. Opening at Williamson Art Gallery, the show offers an eclectic snapshot of British art across the past 45 years. The exhibition features alumni from every edition of the landmark British Art Show - the UK's most significant recurring survey of contemporary art - spanning the inaugural 1979 iteration to the most recent in 2021. The result is a condensed yet expansive overview of a half-century of British art history. 5 June - 25 July 2026

Inheriting the Future @ Seoul Museum of Art, S. Korea

Karikis's work SeaWomen features in the 14th Seoul Mediacity Pre-Biennale: Inheriting the Future. It is being held at Nam-Seoul Museum of Art and has been conceived as an occasion to reread, question, and examine the conceptual evolution of Biennale themes and media practices as they have unfolded across the field of contemporary art. The exhibition is composed of 14 works by nine artists, previously presented in past biennales, as well as works from the museum’s collection and newly invited works. Grounded in existing contexts, yet testing the conditions of articulation within a new environment, these works encompass latent curatorial visions and discourses accumulated over time, unfolding as aesthetic practices that seek to transform unrealized and unrecognized histories from the past into future possibilities. The artists featured are Mikhail Karikis, Woo Jeongsu, Lee Jungwoo, Jawshing Arthur Liou, Jakrawal Nilthamrong, Jeon Joon, Jesse Chun, Chan Sook Choi, Sueyon Hwang. Exhibited at May 20 – July 5, 2026
