Sublime

An inspiration engine for ideas

This week in #ArtsyInsider, we look at Artsy inquiry growth for artists from March 2025 through April 2025. This month’s list is led by two artists with major museum shows. Topping the list is Rashid Johnson, whose retrospective, “A Poem for Deep Thinkers,” opened last month at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. The show, which fills the museum’s famous rotunda with more than 90 artworks by Johnson, is open until next January and covers over three decades of the artist’s career. Johnson’s diverse practice draws from philosophy, literature, and music; it explores his personal emotions as much as the broader context of African American history. ⁠ ⁠ Following Johnson is David Hockney, whose retrospective, “David Hockney 25,” opened last month at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris.
