"I knew nothing about photography. I ended up making 40,000 goddamn slides."

Hackney Art Week will take place from June 4 to 14, featuring 60 artists and creatives across 50 venues in the borough, including Dalston and Clapton.

Sabahs are made entirely by hand from 100% leather in either Texas or Turkey—two regions with distinct yet deeply rooted relationships to the material. The result is a shoe that varies subtly from pair to pair, even within the same size.

The Olympus Perspective Playground operates as a fully built system, where walls, lighting rigs, circulation paths, and signage are developed together with each installation, creating a continuous spatial script.

"It's a really special spot. When you start at the top and move down the gently sloped ramp, you almost feel like a marble tumbling down, looking at art as you roll by. The slight slant plays with your sense of perspective and grounding."

"The idea for a dedicated consultancy arm actually predates GCC's launch in 2020. Right from the beginning, it was clear that while shared standards, tools and advocacy are essential, many organisations would require hands-on, tailored support to implement meaningful change."

"In Minor Keys focuses on marginal or overlooked voices. Kouoh defined a restorative form of resistance, which calls for attentive listening amid the present chaos."

The National Gallery celebrated its bicentenary by entirely rehanging its collection and launched the Art Road Trip program, collaborating with 24 local arts organizations.

Knowles's performances, such as Make a Salad and Identical Lunch, showcased her unique approach to art through food, engaging audiences in the experience of preparation and consumption.

"I love the range in this booth, from large-scale ceramic totems to more intimate neon paintings. I'm always impressed by the artists Freeburg represents and the clarity of her program's mission."

In what became a standard studio visit, I discovered a humble and thoughtful artist who refuses to use her celebrity for easy career gains.

Casa Kahlo offers an unprecedented look into the famed Mexican painter's family home, Casa Roja, which stands just blocks away from Casa Azul in Mexico City. Kahlo would retreat to Casa Roja when Casa Azul got crazy.

The curators of Greater New York really captured the energy of the city well - not the out-of-towner's New York with its glossy surfaces, brands, and trendy fare, but the gritty New York that's always in the process of formation, that rejects surface in favor of rawness.

Much of Instagram's video content is organized around transformation-the virtual magic of the before-and-after and clips that show cause and effect. A person makes pasta from scratch in 20 seconds via edits that compress time-intensive labor.

Emin shot to fame in the 1990s as one of the Young British Artists challenging the very nature of what art could be through raw, conceptual and frequently sensational works. Her most famous early installation, My Bed - featuring Emin's real bed, strewn with dirty sheets and surrounded by personal detritus - will be on display, alongside video works, textiles, neons, writing, sculptures and the paintings that now dominate her practice.

Kamrooz Aram is everywhere this year, from Mumbai Art Week to the Whitney Biennial, and critic Aruna D'Souza is grateful. She pens a beautiful meditation on his work, reading his abstract paintings as not simply a denunciation of Western modernism nor a reassertion of Islamic visual motifs, but something else entirely - something gestural, exuberant, riotous, and incomparably his own.

The new New Museum is many things: contemporary, perhaps, but also a science, history, anthropology, and many other museums in one. It echoes the desire of its patron class to own the world and its affiliated courtier class to deliver it to them on a silver platter, or encased in perforated metal, in this case.

Dealers like artists with established sales records because it lowers their already considerable financial exposure. Renting a gallery space in Tribeca costs anywhere between $8,000-30,000 a month on top of staff, marketing, and daily operations. With that kind of overhead, very few business owners can afford to take on the financial risk of untested artists.
