Unsettling Canon, Reshuffled

Curated by Dan Nadel, Laura Phipps, Scott Rothkopf, and Elisabeth Sussman, among others, the exhibition collects 111 artists whose work grapples with disorientation, identity, fantasy, and power. The Whitney describes it as “a bold, once-in-a-generation exhibition” that aims to restore overlooked stories to the center.

Too often, the narrative of the 1960s art world is told through Pop, Minimalism, and Conceptualism. Sixties Surreal challenges that story by bringing forward an alternative current: one grounded in the surreal, the bodily, the uncanny — the underground energies that seeped through formalism’s cracks.

Works To Not Miss

Nancy Graves’s camels: One of the more startling introductions to the show: three life-sized camel sculptures (wood, steel, burlap) greeting you right off the elevator

Cross-genre encounters. The show doesn’t limit itself to painting and sculpture. There’s photography, assemblage, film, immersive installation, and tactile objects — a multisensory map of how surreal impulses migrated across media.

Exhibit Information

• The show runs from September 24, 2025 through January 19, 2026
• Don’t rush. The works are dense, layered, and often disorienting — allow time to let them “settle in.”
• Pair your visit with the playlist (available on the Whitney website) to deepen the emotional/temporal resonance.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s latest exhibition, Sargent and Paris, offers a captivating exploration of John Singer Sargent’s formative years in the vibrant art scene of late 19th-century Paris. Running through August 3, 2025, in The Tisch Galleries (Gallery 899) at The Met Fifth Avenue, this exhibition commemorates the centennial of Sargent’s death by showcasing approximately 100 works that trace his evolution from a talented 18-year-old art student to a masterful portraitist. Keep reading to find out more!

Madame X Is On Display

Sargent’s decade in Paris, beginning in 1874, was marked by bold experimentation and a deep engagement with both traditional and modern artistic influences. Under the mentorship of Carolus-Duran, Sargent honed his technical skills while embracing the stylistic innovations of contemporaries like Édouard Manet and Claude Monet . The exhibition features a diverse array of his early works, including landscapes, genre scenes, and ambitious portraits that reflect his daring approach to composition and psychological depth. A highlight of the exhibition is the infamous 1884 portrait Madame X, depicting Parisian socialite Virginie Amélie Avegno Gautreau. The painting’s provocative presentation—featuring a fallen dress strap—sparked scandal at the Paris Salon, leading to public outrage and impacting both Sargent’s and Gautreau’s reputations . Despite the controversy, Madame X is now celebrated as a masterpiece, exemplifying Sargent’s virtuosity and his ability to capture the complexities of his subjects.

Herdrich, a specialist in 19th-century American art, Sargent and Paris not only reexamines the narrative surrounding Madame X but also situates Sargent’s work within the broader context of his time in Paris. The exhibition underscores how his experiences in the city shaped his artistic vision, blending elegance with subversive undertones and bridging the gap between tradition and modernity. For those interested in delving deeper, The Met offers an audio guide and a range of public programs related to the exhibition .

Bunny Oreo Balls

If you are looking for a cute dessert, check out these Oreo Bunny Balls from the Food Network!

Ingredient:

1 pack of oreos- you can use gluten free, regular or double stuffed!

6 ounces cream cheese 

3/4 cup confectioners’ sugar  

3/4 teaspoon meringue powder (available in the baking aisle) 

Pink gel food coloring  

Black gel food coloring 

2 cups white candy melting wafers (about 13 ounces) 

1 teaspoon refined coconut oil  

White sanding sugar, for decorating 

Pink sanding sugar, for decorating 

45 mini marshmallows  

Instructions: 

1. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Pulse the cookies in a food processor to fine crumbs. Add the cream cheese and pulse together until the mixture begins to ball up. Transfer to a large bowl and knead together a few times until completely combined.
3. Roll about 1/3 of the mixture into 18 truffles (about 1 level tablespoon each) and place on one of the prepared baking sheets. Roll the remaining mixture into 18 larger truffles, (about 1 heaping tablespoon each), and place on the second prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm and chilled through, about 1 hour.
4. While the truffles chill, prepare the decorations.
5. For the royal icing, combine the confectioner’s sugar and meringue powder in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on low speed just to combine. Add 2 1/2 teaspoons water and increase the speed to medium. Beat the mixture until the icing is stiff enough to hold a peak but soft enough to pipe, about 2 minutes. If the icing gets too stiff, add up to 1/2 teaspoon more water.
6. Divide the icing evenly between 2 bowls. Tint one bowl of icing bright pink using the pink food coloring. Tint the remaining bowl of icing with the black food coloring. Transfer the pink and black icings to separate piping bags (with no cut openings) or to resealable plastic bags and set aside.
7. For the white coating, combine the candy melting wafers and coconut oil in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the mixture in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until the wafers are melted and the mixture is smooth, about 1 minute 20 seconds. Set aside.
8. Put some white sanding sugar and pink sanding sugar in separate bowls.
9. For the bunny tails: Cut 9 of the marshmallows crosswise to create 18 halves. Carefully dip one flat side of each marshmallow piece in the white candy coating, let the excess drip off and then dip in the white sanding sugar. Place each marshmallow piece sugar-side up on a plate to set. These will be the bunny tails.
10. For the bunny ears: Cut 18 of the marshmallows in half on the diagonal to create 18 pairs of bunny ears. Dip the cut side of each marshmallow piece in the pink sanding sugar. Place sugar-side up on the plate with the tails to set.
11. For the bunny feet: Cut the remaining 18 marshmallows in half lengthwise to create 18 pairs of feet. Set aside on the plate with the tails and ears.
12. Put a truffle in the white coating and use 2 forks to evenly coat. Lift out the truffle, letting any excess drip off, then return to the baking sheet. Continue with the remaining truffles (both sizes) until all are all coated. If the coating cools to room temperature during the dipping process, microwave it in 20-second intervals to reheat. Reserve the leftover white coating to use as glue for the tails, ears and feet.
13. For the heads: Dip the bottoms of 2 bunny ears in the leftover white coating, place on top of a small truffle and hold in place until the coating sets, about 15 seconds. Snip a very small tip off the corner of each bag of icing. Pipe a small pink heart for a nose on the front (face) of the truffle. Pipe a pair of eyes and mouth using the black royal icing. Repeat with the remaining small truffles.
14. For the bottoms: Dip the cut side of a marshmallow tail in the leftover white coating. Place the tail on top of one of the large truffles and hold in place until the coating sets, about 15 seconds. Dip the cut sides of two marshmallow feet in the leftover white coating. Position them on the truffle below the tail and hold until set in place. Use the pink royal icing to pipe a large oval on the top each foot and 3 small circles underneath for toes. Repeat with the remaining large truffles.
15. Return all the truffles to the refrigerator to set, about 10 minutes. Serve chilled.

Matzo Ball Soup

If you are eating with your family this holiday outdoors, you might want a soup to warm you up! Matzo ball soup is delicious and will keep you warm! The recipe from foodandwine.com listed below is great!

Ingredients

Chicken Soup

• 2 quarts chicken stock or low-sodium broth 
• One 3-pound chicken 

Matzoh Balls

• 1 1/4 cups matzoh meal 
• 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt 
• 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic 
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 
• 5 large eggs, 3 separated  
• 1/4 cup melted chicken fat (schmaltz) or vegetable oil 
• 1/4 cup minced onion 
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, for forming the matzoh balls 

To Finish

• 1 large carrot, thinly sliced 
• 2 celery ribs, thinly sliced 
• 1 small onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice 
• 1/4 pound rutabaga, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice 
• 4 large dill sprigs 
• 4 large parsley sprigs 
• Kosher salt 
• Freshly ground pepper 

Directions

Make the Chicken Soup

• Step 1In a large pot, bring the chicken stock to a simmer. Add the chicken and return the stock just to a simmer. Cover the chicken with a small plate to keep it submerged and cover the pot. Reduce the heat to maintain a very low simmer; simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove the chicken and let cool slightly, then shred the meat; discard the skin and bones. Strain the soup into a heatproof bowl. Skim off the fat and return the soup to the pot.

Meanwhile, Make the Matzoh Balls

• Step 2In a large bowl, combine the matzoh meal, salt, garlic, baking powder and baking soda. In a medium bowl, whisk the 2 whole eggs with the 3 yolks, schmaltz and onion. In a separate bowl, beat the 3 egg whites with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Stir the schmaltz mixture into the dry ingredients, then stir in one-third of the beaten egg whites until incorporated. Gently fold in the remaining whites until no streaks remain. Press a sheet of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the batter and refrigerate for about 20 minutes or overnight, until firm.
• Step 3Line a baking sheet with plastic wrap. In a small bowl, combine the vegetable oil with 1 tablespoon of water. Scoop 1-tablespoon-size mounds of the matzoh batter onto the baking sheet. Using the oil-and-water mixture to keep your hands moist, roll each scoop of batter into a ball, handling them as gently as possible.
• Step 4Return the chicken soup to a simmer. Add the carrot, celery, onion, rutabaga, dill and parsley and season with a big pinch each of salt and pepper. Add the matzoh balls. Cover and cook over moderate heat, turning the matzoh balls a few times, until they are plump and cooked through, about 25 minutes. Stir the shredded chicken into the soup and cook just until the meat is warmed through, about 2 minutes. Remove the herb sprigs. Season the soup with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
