With the full support of Koyo Kouoh’s family, La Biennale di Venezia decided to carry out her Exhibition. It will do so by following the project just as she conceived and defined it, with the purpose of preserving, enhancing, and disseminating her ideas and the work she pursued.

When the ambassador, a 40-year career diplomat, departed soon after, it was reported as a planned retirement. #VeniceBiennale #VeniceBiennale2026

She was quite likely referring to an incident in which something she called “satanic baby art” was removed from the U.S. ambassador’s residence in Bucharest, Romania. (The artwork included a collaged image of babies and a human skull, referring to Christian iconography and Mexican tradition.)

“I’m a little bit of an undercover person in the State Department,” Ms. Scavino said on a podcast with Katie Miller, the wife of Stephen Miller, the president’s top homeland security adviser. She added that she can “get people out through art, shockingly.”

At the beginning of 2025, Ms. Scavino became the director of the Art in Embassies program, which manages permanent art collections in diplomatic spaces across 189 countries. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/19/a...

I’ve been thinking about archives as something active rather than fixed. Not a place where the past is stored, but where it is filtered, ranked, and reshaped. What we remember often arrives already edited. ‘The Archive Dreams Us’ moves through that idea in fragments. #BookSky

This book moves in 3 parts: dataset, prompt, & memory. Each section follows how information becomes narrative, how something recorded begins to shift as it is stored, retrieved, & seen again. 17–19 April Tsundoku Art Book Fair At the International Centre for the Image Led by PhotoIreland #BookSky

Some use it for a scene or single artworks, others for the whole video, a musician enhances her music, some write their texts with it. All share their work process in the artist online pavilion space which is creating an illuminating read next to viewing the video.

Art continues to find its way to unexpected places, an abandoned Greyhound bus depot and a bold church with a beautiful set of organ pipes, each transformed into a living canvas once dusk hits, and the music festival kicks into gear.
