October is a great month to visit museums and art galleries, as there are many exciting exhibitions happening around the world. Here are a few of the must-see exhibitions happening in October 2023:

Hilma af Klint: A Pioneer of Abstraction

When: September 23, 2023 – February 5, 2024 Exhibition

Where: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1000 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10028

This exhibition is the first major retrospective of Hilma af Klint, a Swedish artist who is considered to be one of the pioneers of abstract art. Af Klint began painting abstract works in the early 1900s, many years before artists like Wassily Kandinsky and Piet Mondrian. She was inspired by her spiritual beliefs and her interest in the occult, and her paintings often feature geometric shapes, symbols, and biomorphic forms.

Philip Guston and the Politics of Painted Images

This exhibition is the largest and most comprehensive retrospective of the artist’s work ever held in the UK. It features over 200 of Guston’s works, including paintings, drawings, and sculptures.

The exhibition is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Guston’s work. One section focuses on his early figurative paintings, which were inspired by his Jewish heritage and his experiences of the Holocaust. Another section focuses on his abstract paintings of the 1950s and 1960s. The final section of the exhibition focuses on his figurative paintings of the 1970s, which are the most well-known and controversial works of his career.
