Okay, so maybe I have a quirky fascination with mushrooms, but you've got to admit, these paper creations are incredible. www.demilked.com/woodlucker-a...

I wish I had the patience.

While I'm glad these workers could be shifted to other parts of the gallery, I can't even begin to think of the ramifications these changes will have. Goodbye access programs. So long touch sensitive tours. No more collaborations with culturally relevant curators. Just, no.

I went to university not all that long ago, and my architectural history lecturer taught with manual slides. He was one of the most passionate teachers and those slides made his lectures so much more memorable.

Frida Kahlo’s Elegy to Heartache Despite the fact that most of humanity has shared the devastating emotional turmoil of a breakup, the topic is strangely elusive in the history of art.

Frida Kahlo’s β€œThe Two Fridas” may be the only well-known historic painting created by a woman about the demise of a relationship.

Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Unpacking Provenance: A Chinese Porcelain Cup. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar. The new online series Unpacking Provenance: Retracing the Histories of Asian Art brings together cross-disciplinary specialists to discuss provenance research processes and share resources. Discussion...

This is sadly too early in the morning for my timezone, but is sure to be a great webinar series on provenance by the Smithsonian.

The exhibition that I'm most looking forward to seeing this summer is 'Julie Mehretu: A Transcore of the Radical Imaginatory' at the MCA Sydney. Not an artist I'm familiar with, but one that looks truly inspired. www.mca.com.au/exhibitions/...

Here's Primavera assistant curator, Lucy Lattela speaking at last night's members tour at the MCA.
I hadn't seen Christopher Bassi's work before (shown here) and it was a delight to hear about the small scale sculptures he created to base these paintings. He gives reverence to such small objects.

Academia isn’t about wealth, or fame, or approval. It’s about downloading as many pdfs as you possibly can until you retire without reading any of them

If anyone has any helpful tips on transcribing audio talks that are poorly recorded, now is your time to be a hero.

A lot of interest yesterday in the artists involved in Womanifesto and the ongoing Anthology project. Great to see so many people at the artists talks.
