A permanent home in America.
teamLab (@teamLab_net), the Tokyo art collective founded in 2001 by Toshiyuki Inoko, announced its first permanent museum in the United States, at OCVIBE (@ocVIBE), the 100-acre district under construction around the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. Designed by smith-clementi as "a shimmering cloak" over its darkened galleries, it is scheduled to open in 2030 with a new exhibition. "The artworks change with the presence of people, making them an integral part of the art itself," Inoko said.

Tomorrow the Mori Art Museum (@mori_art_museum) in Tokyo opens Mariko Mori: All That Shines, through Mar 28, 2027, her first major retrospective in Japan since Pure Land in 2002, organized with the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation (@Guggenheim). Forty works span more than three decades, from the mid-1990s Cyborg photographs and videos to Wave UFO (1999 to 2002), which the museum calls the first artwork ever to use brainwave biofeedback, and Tom Na H-iu (2006), which turns neutrinos from supernova explosions into flashes of light.

New on http://catalogue.gallery: bodies that open like cabinets.
Rocketgirl (@rocketgirlART) published the essay for VESSELS, 1/1s on SuperRare (@SuperRare) and editions on Transient Labs (@TransientLabs), figures painted "in the language of the past, classical oil and old master light," every one with her eyes closed. Each body opens onto the present: a queen kept alive by an IV bag marked GAMBLE, a knight whose breastplate reveals rows of office cubicles. "The battle didn't end, it moved indoors."
Ahead: on Nov 5 and 6, the generative artist BitArt plans to bring Mosaic, a work inscribed on Bitcoin and built from Bitcoin transaction data, to the main-stage LED screens at Bitcoin Amsterdam.
The amounts participants choose and the outputs in their transactions shape the image, while sat ranges set tempo, rhythm and harmony. It holds more than 127 million tiles. "The distinction between collecting and creating becomes less clear," he said.
