  1. getting consistent spam from fineartnews (in the form of "we find your work outstanding").

    Basically they offer artists to write and publish an article about you and your art for 300€.

    A lot of artists who struggles to live on whatever they do would consider something like this for PR. And a lot of people out there will explore your emotions and your hopes.

    Also a lot of art and music publications mix curated articles with paid stuff.

    and the stock exchange world is a fluffy hippy utopia compared to the art world.

    But honestly, this one is beyond dumb, why would anybody - desperate or not -pay to have an article on a publication that is only vanity press? Who even reads that? the people who paid for the articles to see how they were written?

    And getting daily mails now.

    There are very few things in the internet which are not running after your money.

  2. Paintings of Carmen Mansilla, Spanish Artist

    "One day, during a class, I suddenly found myself unable to speak, without any desire to communicate with the world. I felt it was my way of striking the table + changing direction.
    At that moment, I left my profession + traveled to Florence to connect directly with painting"

  4. Homo Algus

    French sculptor Sophie Prestigiacomo created a series of swamp creatures, Installed in the wetlands of the Séné Nature Reserve in Brittany, France. The sculptures, first made in 2012, are made with a metal frame covered only with mud + the seaweed which has a resemblance to skin after it dries. The sculptures change with the weather + with their temporary nature will return to the earth from whence they came , over time ...

  6. Dame Laura Knight

    In 1926, Dame Laura Knight traveled to the USA where she gained access to the Johns Hopkins segregated wards, creating a series of sketches of patients + nurses. While in Baltimore, she befriended Pearl Johnson, an African American worker at the hospital. Johnson introduced Knight to the early American civil rights movement, bringing her to local lectures + concerts, prompting Knight to famously write that there was "a whole world of beauty" to explore in "Negro life" in America.

  11. People often talk about physical art galleries becoming obsolete in a digital world saturated with images.

    I wrote about how Xochi Art Gallery is adapting to this changing landscape with a hybrid model combining curation, nature, tourism, and digital infrastructure.
