Be Enticed by a Fresh Dose of Culture
Pace Gallery mounts the first exhibition in Asia dedicated to artist Mary Corse, whose unorthodox use of light as both subject and medium is widely celebrated. Her works reside in the permanent collections of institutes such as the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, and more. On show through May 11.
Writing On the Wall
French textile studio Lelièvre has been curating high-end upholstery fabrics since 1914.

Pictured here is the Figari wallpaper, inspired by the brand’s iconic Maquis tapestry design, which features botanical elements on a canvas-effect waffle background.
