2025 was definitely…a year. The good, the bad, and the ugly, as they say. But here at Petrichor, I saw a lot of great art. I continue to be so impressed with what I see in Pittsburgh and it is a gift to get to write about art and artists here. I found that what stuck with me most this year was work that dealt with consumerism, beauty, and kitsch. All of the work included here uses bold colors, fastidious attention to material, and big ideas. I’m excited for what art I’ll get to see and write about in 2026, and I’m excited to share it with you. But here are my favorite shows I saw this year.
