Our most talked-about stories in visual art, February 25-March 1, 2013:

— Julia Halperin previewed next week's Armory Show art fair, including a bevy of special programming celebrating the centennial of the landmark 1913 Armory Show exhibition, while Benjamin Sutton took a look at the offerings at this year's ADAA Art Show, which marks its 25th anniversary.

 

— ARTINFO editors on (almost) every continent picked the best artworks they'd seen during the month of February, from Douglas Gordon in Berlin to TextaQueen in Sydney.

— Kelly Chan toured architect Annabelle Selldorf's enormous new purpose-built David Zwirner gallery complex on West 20th Street in Chelsea.

— Janelle Zara looked into the innovative design of Superkilen park in Copenhagen, a bold-hued urban plaza designed by architect Bjarke Ingels, urban landscape architects Topotek 1, and artist collective Superflex.

— Coline Milliard picked the 10 best booths at the new London art fair Art13, from hometown favorite October Gallery to Dubai gallery Lawrie Shabibi.

— Dion Tan spoke to Gutai group member Takesada Matsutani about the collective's origins, his new exhibition at New York's Galerie Richard, and the Guggenheim's current retrospective of the movement's output.

— Rising star artist and self-described anti-finish fetishist Julia Dault discussed her work's genesis in tacky textiles and construction materials.

— Ben Davis pondered how the Guggenheim's "UBS MAP Global Art Initiative," which recently debuted with the opening of "No Country: Contemporary Art From South and Southeast Asia," became so very lost.

— Photographer Brandon Stanton, founder of the popular blog "Human of New York," caught DKNY stealing his work for a window display in Bangkok after he specifically turned down an offer when the fashion label sought his permission to use his pictures.

— The new design fair Collective, founded by architect Stephen Learner, revealed the details of its inaugural edition, slated to coincide with Frieze New York in May.
