Plus, Fendi Casa expands in France, and Philippe Parreno's melting "Iceman" sculpture makes its New York debut. Clive Davis' art collection heads to auction, led by Warhol's Aretha Franklin portrait. Eight paintings from the collection of Clive Davis, the record producer who passed away this June, will go to auction at Christie's during the November sales in New York, marking some of the season's first major consignments. Together, the works are valued at more than $35 million, though Christie's has not yet released individual estimates. The group includes a circa-1986 Andy Warhol portrait of Aretha Franklin, whom Davis famously championed; a 2009 David Hockney landscape, and a 1992 Joan Mitchell abstraction, alongside works by Frank Stella, George Condo, and Robert Motherwell. While Davis, who worked with musicians from Bruce Springsteen to Alicia Keys, wasn't widely known as a major collector, Christie's release suggests a longstanding passion for art.

Fendi Casa expands in France with a new flagship in Paris. Fendi Casa is celebrating the official opening of its first Paris flagship, marking the latest step in partner Luxury Living Group's retail and branded-residence expansion. The two-story space, located in a Haussmann-style building at 16-18 Avenue George V, follows Fendi Casa's first French outpost in Cannes, which opened last fall. The interior draws on ancient Roman architecture reinterpreted through a modern lens, featuring travertine marble, resin flooring, and Roman lime-plaster wall finishes. The ground floor is dedicated to living room collections, while the upper level houses bedroom pieces, along with personalized design services, a materials library, and a VIP room. The store carries recent Milan Design Week debuts, including the Podium sofa by Toan Nguyen, the Chain storage unit by Ceriani Szostak, and the Peekachill armchair inspired by Fendi's Peekaboo bag. Kunstmuseum Den Haag, home to the Netherlands' largest fashion and costume collection, is opening up its archives with a new exhibition, "Reflections on Fashion," celebrating 75 years of collecting sartorial history. The show features pieces from designers including Coco Chanel, Dior, Hubert de Givenchy, Viktor & Rolf, Iris van Herpen, Fong-Leng, Frank Govers, and Karim Adduchi. The exhibition is organized into distinct gallery sections, each shaped by a different curator's perspective. Tess van Zalinge's "Open Depot" section offers visitors a rare look at restoration work in progress, presenting 18th-, 19th-, and 20th-century garments inside out, from corsets to hidden gown linings. Another highlight is a pale pink 1926 Chanel dress, made famous by the Dutch television series Secrets of the Museum, discovered unexpectedly among fabric scraps and now on public display for the first time following extensive restoration. Founded in 1951 as the Dutch Costume Museum, the institution has grown to house more than 50,000 pieces, fulfilling its founding ambition to be "a living institution" engaged with society.

Originally created for a 1995 group exhibition in Tokyo, the work consists of an ice sculpture that melts over time, with fresh versions installed periodically throughout an exhibition's run. At Independent, a new Iceman will arrive daily, in white or clear ice, sized similarly to a 2024 iteration shown at Seoul's Leeum Museum of Art. The booth also includes work by Liam Gillick, Pierre Huyghe, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, and Angela Bulloch, reflecting the gallery's roots in the 1990s relational aesthetics movement.
