A mural of the Statue of Liberty covering her eyes in shame was created by Dutch artist Judith de Leeuw. It is in a high population area of immigrants in France…!!! She said ‘The values that the statue once stood for - freedom hope, the right to be yourself - have been lost for many’…!!!

Of the number of statements made by Trump that should warrant grave concern and rebuke, this one may be the most striking. “I was saved by god to make America great again.” The media and most politicians have entered an era of compliant darkness. We would be foolish to look to them for help.

Man, this is a pretty fucking gross move from Amazon, huh? Good on @bookshop.org for not mincing words, though:

Every April, we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day to remind us how vital indie bookstores are to our communities and society. It’s a day of joy and solidarity, and significant financial impact for these bookstores.

This year, Amazon is undercutting that with a “Book Sale” on the same day—a calculated move by a company that has already put half the bookstores in the country out of business, controls over 60% of the market and sells far more books than all indie bookstores combined. The people at Amazon responsible for the timing of their "Book Sale" should be ashamed, but they are shameless.

This is a huge step forward in the reassessment of /all/ of Gill's character and work. Even today the letter carvers with links back to his workshop proudly lay out their lineage to a sexual abuser on their websites. It mystifies me. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

‘His work needs to be seen’: the Eric Gill exhibition put together by abuse survivors

Ever since the artist’s repellent crimes were brought to light, the world has grappled with how to treat his work. Now a new exhibition at Ditchling, where he lived, is giving survivors a say

I'm gripped by the ever-increasing bling in Trump’s Oval Office. What does it mean? Yes, Trump has bad taste. But also something else. Here’s an art historical view. 🧵 1/

Presidents Trump and Bukele of El Salvador sit before the fireplace in the Oval Office, surrounded by gold cups, portraits and gold trinkets.

Utterly ridiculous pop fact learnt from BBC Piano Room: the highest UK chart position for Bill Withers’ Ain't No Sunshine was 40, and that was the 2009 rerelease. Baffling.
