Fotografiska
No. 127 Guangfu Road
Jing'an District, Shanghai

In this exhibition, Something or Nothing, Andrew Grassie presents a new series of work that originates from an open call made to Fotografiska Museum visitors. Participants were given disposable cameras with the simple instruction to take photographs of 'Something or Nothing'. From over a thousand submissions, Grassie selected eleven photographs to transform into slow paintings using the tactile subtlety of egg tempera.

The exhibition offers a profound meditation on memory, time, and the permeable boundaries between mediums. With meticulous precision, Grassie transforms the stillness of a photograph into the slow, enduring flow of paint, granting each captured moment a renewed sense of permanence.

Radio Ballads takes its name from a revolutionary series of radio programs, broadcast on the BBC from 1957–1964: a time of rapid change across the UK. These combined song, music, and sound effects with the stories of communities. Each original Ballad focused on the lived experiences and resistance of workers and groups whose voices were rarely or never heard in the media. Radio Ballads asks how we can understand, listen, learn, and heal through collective storytelling. In a time of multiple crises, the project explores how voices—individual and collective—can illuminate structures of care and allow us to reflect on conditions of life and the effects of labor in our communities.

Culturgest
Rua Arco do Cego, 50

Portugal

Alexandra Bircken's solo exhibition SomaSemaSoma is opening at Culturgest Lisbon on 25 October 2025. This is a travelling exhibition organised by Kunsthaus Biel Centre d'art Bienne (KBCB, Switzerland) in collaboration with Culturgest and the Marta Herford Museum.

The sculptural work of Alexandra Bircken deals with the structure of protection, identification and the expansion of the individual in analogies between body and machine. The Berlin-based artist combines a variety of materials and techniques with which she explores the boundary between the human and the created environment. At the same time, Bircken dissects everyday technical objects with surgical precision, bringing the biomorphic nature of machines into view. This dual approach leads to an ambivalent work that is both cyborg-like and androgynous, questioning human behaviour and desire, but also the vulnerability of the body in its relationship to technology.

Okayama Orient Museum Pre-Entrance
9-31 Tenjin-cho, Kita-ku, Okayama City

The Okayama Art Summit is an international contemporary art exhibition that focuses on conceptual art, held in Okayama City every three years. Curated by Philippe Parreno, Liam Gillick has been selected as one of this year's exhibiting artists.

The theme of this year’s summit is The Parks of Aomame, inspired by Aomame, the mysterious character from Haruki Murakami’s novel 1Q84. As Parreno describes in his statement, a curated group of thirty individuals and groups from twelve countries and regions, including artists, musicians, architects, designers, scientists, writers and thinkers, will use their unique methods of expression to create new forms, transforming Okayama’s public spaces into places where reality and imagination naturally merge.
