The tributes to Mathilde Favier this week have returned again and again to the same things: her warmth, loyalty, humour, courage and unmistakable joy in life. Favier, Dior Couture’s director of public relations, passed away on Monday at the ag
After its major presentation at Tate Modern in London, Tracey Emin’s ’A Second Life’ travels to @louisianamuseum this autumn. Spanning almost four decades, the exhibition brings together painting, drawing, sculpture, textile, film

Carine Roitfeld’s @carineroitfeld home is less a decorated interior than an exercise in editing. When the legendary French editor and stylist moved into this 1,000-square-foot, one-bedroom flat, she reduced her art and fashion collections to th
Valentino Garavani, immaculate in white, seated at Chalet Gifferhorn in Gstaad among three pugs and a flock of François-Xavier Lalanne’s Moutons de Laine. Photographed by Lukas Wassmann in 2010, the image feels less staged than perfectly
Modernism is often remembered through the empty room: white walls, a perfect chair, nothing out of place. The Eames House offers a far more generous idea of modern life. Completed in Los Angeles in 1949 as Case Study House No. 8, Charles and Ray Eam
For five years, four canvases remained stacked in Hanna Zelleke Collin’s studio. She tried more than once to separate them, but could not. This week at STUGAN, with her one-month-old daughter Zelda beside her, she finally did. Hanna @nilloceke

Some collections are built around possession. Others create an entire way of seeing. Giuseppe Panza di Biumo’s did the latter. Panza began collecting post-war American art in the mid-1950s, long before many of the artists he championed had acq
Love revisiting Donna Karan’s Manhattan apartment; a spatial version of her design philosophy. Created with architects Dominic Kozerski and Enrico Bonetti, the 7,000-square-foot home joins two classic-six apartments at the top of a 1929 Art De
AI WILL NOT SAVE A BAD GALLERY. It could save a good one from its administration. Dealer sales rose by 2% in 2025. Operating costs rose by an estimated 5%. Fifty-nine per cent of dealer businesses employed five people or fewer. That is the real bus
Harumi Klossowska de Rola has spent much of her life surrounded by art, but animals have always been just as important. Born in Geneva in 1973, she is the daughter of Balthus and the Japanese painter Setsuko Ideta. She spent her early childhood at t
At The Fife Arms @thefifearms, art is not an amenity. It determines the experience of the building. Built in 1856 as a Victorian coaching inn in Braemar, The Fife Arms was acquired by Iwan and Manuela Wirth of Hauser & Wirth @hauserwirth in 2014
Over several sittings, I have spent twenty hours with Evelina Hägglund @hagglundevelina as she builds a sculpture of my head. Some days we talked continuously about life, ourselves, inspiration, what it means to be an artist and gossip. During
Alexander Calder and Georgia O’Keeffe at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York on 20 October 1976. They lean so close that the rest of the room seems to disappear, their hands clasped between them. O’Keeffe smiles while Calder sp
For Gianni Versace, home was fashion made architectural: rooms as theatrical as a runway, composed in marble, mosaic, lacquer, velvet, gold and art. His visual language began in Reggio Calabria, where the remains of Magna Graecia made classical myth
