Tal R’s work is presented in The Elephant in the Room, a solo exhibition at the Millesgården Museum, Stockholm, in the former home and studio of Carl Milles (1875–1955). Visitors encounter a monumental pink elephant by Tal R among Milles’ classic white plaster casts – an enigmatic presence within the historic setting. In the art hall, the narrative continues with vibrant paintings and sculptures that explore the home, its rooms, and the relationships formed within them. Inspired by the concept of ‘das Unheimliche’ (the uncanny), Tal R raises questions about what we see, and what we would rather not see.

Work by Tal R is included in the group exhibition Liberté & Tradition at Le Bicolore, Maison du Danemark, Paris. The exhibition presents a historical encounter between contemporary Danish art and traditional French craftsmanship. Tal R, alongside contemporaries Bjørn Nørgaard, Kirstine Roepstorff and Alexander Tovborg, freely interpreted the exhibition’s titular themes of freedom and tradition, working for the past six years with weavers at the historic Les Manufactures de Beauvais et des Gobelins in Paris and Beauvais, as well as private ateliers in the French town of Aubusson. The weavers in turn followed centuries-old craft traditions to translate the artists’ motifs into intricate gobelin tapestries, preserving and reinvigorating French craftsmanship through cross-cultural encounter.

We congratulate Thomas Struth on being awarded the Soane Honors Award for Photography.

Work by Thomas Struth is featured in the group show Second Nature: Photography in the Age of the Anthropocene, at the Anchorage Museum, until 5 April 2026. The exhibition explores images captured by 43 artists, who have pushed technological boundaries and developed conceptual approaches to image-making, rupturing the traditions of the photographic medium. The technological shift of the early 2000s coincided with the emergence of the term Anthropocene, allowing artists to use new, digital tools and develop a new visual language to represent the land, collectively reckoning with what it means to live on Earth in this age.

Tal R’s work is included in the group exhibition Når vi døde vågner (When We Dead Awaken) at Gammel Strand, Copenhagen. Marking the institution’s 200th anniversary, the exhibition is a transhistorical journey through works and previously exhibited artists that have left a mark on Gammel Strand. The exhibition presents a series of associative, imaginative encounters that together sketch a portrait of how art, its institutions and the surrounding world are constantly in motion – in a state of ongoing exchange and transformation.

Archive Matrix Assembly: The Photography of Thomas Struth 1978–2018 presents the first comprehensive, systematic theory of Thomas Struth’s main body of photographic work from its beginnings in the late 1970s until his most recent work in 2018. The book presents a unique, evolutionary understanding of the work, proposing that it has established three stages of production: archive, matrix, and assembly. Together the three stages form a developmental system that characterizes the individual photographs, their relation to their subject matter, and how they form larger, significant collections of images. The book project accomplishes three main goals: it develops a comprehensive critical reading of the work, it serves as a monograph of the artist, and it provides an extensive analysis of the photographs at all stages, including the less discussed, more recent photography, which is placed on par with the earlier work for which Struth first became internationally renowned.
