The International Association of Art Critics (AICA) has declared the winners of its 26th annual awards, and the selections contain some well-known names, as well as a few surprises. The honorees range from the Museum of Modern Arts “Pipilotti Rist: Pour Your Body Out (7354 Cubic Meters)” to  “Art of Two Germanys/Cold War Cultures,” which organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, to “Ernesto Neto: anthropodino,” which was on view at the Park Avenue Armory this year.

“Best Show in a Commercial Gallery in New York City” honors went to Gagosians “Picasso: Mosquertos,” curated by Picasso biographer John Richardson, which was nominated for the “Solo Show of the Year, Gallery” award at Rob Pruitt’s First Annual Art Award, before losing out to Gagosian’s “Manzoni: A Retrospective.”
