Today, artist Nan Goldin speaks about the controversy surrounding her retrospective at Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie in an interview published in English for the first time in Hyperallergic. “I felt disavowed by the museum,” she tells German journalist Hanno Hauenstein, revealing details about tense exchanges between her and the museum's staff in relation to a statement she asked to add to the exhibition. You should also check out our interview with Art Spiegelman, creator of the acclaimed graphic novel Maus (1986), who talks about his new bio documentary and one particularly risky project in the works. In other stories, the Vatican removes a nativity scene featuring baby Jesus with a Palestinian keffiyeh, and Staff Reporter Isa Farfan explains the generational aspect of the memes glorifying Luigi Mangione, the 26-year-old suspected of shooting and killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. And as always, there’s more.
