Another traditional female method, porcelain, is the star and a possible villain “Lynic beauty: feminist review of Chinoiserie.” The new exhibition of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (March 25) takes a cautious vision of its contents, which extend half of the millennium, on the pretext that the West has acted its daily dreams from one cup that is easy to drive at one time. The museum also honors the death of the American painter John Singer Sargent, “Sargent and Paris” (April 27) – Another presentation about the fantasies of the vibrant stranger, in some way. Inevitably, everything is focused on the masterpiece of the artist, “Portrait of Madame X”, which is the painting that made French society. Yes, it’s in the permanent Met collection, but for a year without the Sarrgent Gallery somewhere like a beautiful young heir without a safe belt.
Reopening Frick Group, On April 17, nearly five years of renovations, it must take place everyone Pant. There is a set of new good things to reward us for our patience, including the statues of Ukrainian artist Vladimir Kanevsky and an amazing room of Goya, Degas and others, very brittle for long -term width but in summer, at least. The second floor of the building, which was previously outside the border, will be full of ceramics and wives from now on, as was the case when the actual FREX lived there.
After a day and a mile in the north, the Guggenheim Museum opens “Rashid Johnson: a poem for deep thinkers,” A major survey of one of the most interesting American artists over the past twenty -five years. If you know it, you are likely to know “The Broken Five”, the huge mosaic inspired by Central Park five; If not, it is here, along with nearly ninety siblings. By the time when it comes out, their dried body should be almost known as the Coca-Cola logo.
Another tendency north, at El Museo Del Barrio, Candida Alvarez: circle, point, collar “ (April 24) The multidisciplinary artist honors the first scan of her museum on a large scale. Like Johnson, Alvarez jumped between form, abstraction and concepts; Nevertheless, her best work may be her “weatherboards”, vulgar fly files of acrylic, ink, enamel and shine that can not be faded even even for one square millimeter.
Spring ends with the Morgan Library “Jamal’s arrest: Julia Margaret Cameron” (May 30), the early photographer who lived on White Island, and when she was approaching fifty, began taking pictures of her friends. If you are trying to maintain the largest possible amount of Victorian England and have only one Victorian action to help, you can do worse than these pictures; Everyone here, from Tennyson to Darwin, looks sad, deep and completely integrated.

Martha Graham was known to put it in the inner landscape of its female heroes, with a glowing psychological such as hot coal. Several works in Martha Graham Dance Company Spring season (Joyce Theater; 1-13 April), such as the second act of “Clegemnestra”, “Errand in the Maze”, and “Frontier”, shares this burning density. But “deaths and entrances” (1943), which the company returns after a long absence, is a particularly interesting condition, a picture of an artist – Emily Burnte, originally danced by Graham herself – which is fighting, such as Graham, to maintain her creative rush.
Dancer and dance designer Bill T. Jones, Also, it is achieved in creative life fluctuations in the “Memory Piece: Mr. Eli, Alfin. The UN-Eyy?,” Aleyy “exhibition uprising in Whitney. Jones, who is still strong at seventy -two, moves through space with fierce with stories from the past: early dance sensations, tense reactions with Elie Al -Astouri, and engaging with critics who tried to link him as a black artist. “Do you need an ethical enthusiasm from Merus Knungham?” He asks, he is still angry at the idea. “Memory Piece” is alternating with a new business for Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane, which explores the limits of personal freedom, “people, places and things”. (New York Live Arts; May 15-24.)
A little more than a year ago, New York City Pallet A work inspired by a picture of the Russian invasion of Ukraine – a man carrying the hand of his dead son after a missile strike. The ballet, “isolation”, written by Alexei Ratmanski, is through the surreal rotation, horrific and poetic, and it is an amazing blatant statement of an unknown way to address political issues explicitly. The article goes back to the spring season in City Ballet (David H Theater, Coach; April 22-1 June), in a program that also includes the latest Justin Beck’s work for the company, “Mystic Minking”, an elegant show of young men with Music by Dan Deacon and the designs of the artist Eamon Ore Ore Ore-Giron. It should also not be missed, a ballet program that was appointed to Maurice Ravil’s music, including Pas De Deux sensitive and elegant by George Palnchin, “Sonatin”.
No one to meditate or psychological, Twyla Tharp Instead, artistic fascination and musical understanding brings the theater in the city center (12-16 March). As usual, there is a new piece, set on “Auguas De Amazonia” in Philip Glass. But I will put my stakes on the oldest work, “Diabelli” (1998), which was appointed on the differences of piano bearing the name Beethoven, and itself the feast of invention, chef, and complex. This is an ideal substance for Thaarp, whose brain flourishes the complexity and accurate differences in form. Then there is its active effect on the dancers, who include on this occasion, Renan Serdero, even recently by Miami City Ballet – a classic dancer through and via – Disi Jacobson.
