Luciano Figueiredo is featured in Von Stadt zu Stadt: Europäische Kunst im Dialog at Rathaus-Arthaus Weimar, in Germany. Representing the French city of Blois, the artist presents relief-like paintings on canvas and newsprint that engage Bauhaus forms through transparency, layering and the recomposition of signs. Bringing together works from six of Weimar’s partner cities, the exhibition explores identity and belonging in contemporary Europe.
Tiago Sant’Ana is part of the exhibition Brésil Illustré: l’héritage post colonial de J.B. Debret, at Maison de l’Amérique latine in Paris. The show creates a dialogue between Jean-Baptiste Debret’s 19th-century depictions of Brazil and contemporary interpretations by Brazilian artists.
In Refino #3 and Refino #4, Tiago Sant’Ana revisits the iconography of Black labor under colonial systems, using Debret’s work as a starting point to question and intervene in Brazil’s historiographies. In these works, sugar appears both as a medium that erases the reproduction of violence and as a trace that reveals the brutality of colonial processes, highlighting its lasting impact on social stratification. Between concealment and revelation, the artist conducts an archaeology of sugar and its enduring marks in the present.

The exhibition remains on view until August 3, 2025.

German photographers Frank Thiel and Candida Höfer are featured in Después de todo. Fotografía en la Colección Helga de Alvear, on view at Espacio Cultural Serrería Belga, Madrid, as part of PHotoESPAÑA 2025. Gathering photographs that chart a century of European upheaval and renewal, the exhibition traces three historical moments—World War I, the post-1950 industrial crisis, and the fall of the Berlin Wall—to examine architecture, memory, and urban change.
Drawn from the Helga de Alvear Collection, Höfer and Thiel’s works focus on interiors, façades, and industrial sites, highlighting the tension between documentary record and constructed image in a continent that perpetually rebuilds itself.
Candida Höfer’s solo exhibition is on view at the Hessisches Landesmuseum Darmstadt. The show brings together large-scale photographs portraying interiors of public buildings, alongside more recent series in which the artist explores, among other elements, temporary lighting structures.
Höfer considers her photographs not as architectural records, but as portraits of spaces that reveal their function and cultural significance. With a career spanning over five decades, she is one of the leading figures of the Düsseldorf School. Her work has received numerous awards, including the Käthe-Kollwitz-Preis from the Akademie der Künste in Berlin, in 2024.
Candida Höfer is part of the exhibition Civilization: The Way We Live Now, at Kunsthalle München, Germany. The show features over 200 works by international photographers exploring how contemporary societies build, organize, consume, and connect.

Candida Höfer’s photographs engage with these themes through meticulously composed images of architectural interiors that reflect contemporary social and cultural structures.

Candida Höfer takes part in the exhibition Delikatessen – Between Art and Cuisine, exploring dialogues between art and gastronomy from 1960 onward. The artist presents the photograph Spiegelkantine Hamburg V (2000), bringing her perspective on public interiors to a context that addresses food, dining rituals and cultural transformations. By highlighting how artists use ingredients, rituals and dining environments as visual material, the show questions the relationship between creation, everyday life and collective memory, proposing the kitchen as a space for reflecting on material culture. The exhibition remains on view until Nov 9, 2025.
