Good morning. It’s another balmy day here in New York, but the good news is that you can cool off at any of the city’s hundreds of free art spaces. At Timothy Taylor Gallery, Dog Days of Summer gathers over 60 works honoring our four-legged companions. Pups welcome, treats (and fresh water) provided. Woof!

Also today, an artist plays a trick on the British Museum, “Queen of Baltimore” Joyce J. Scott’s tantalizing beaded creations, and a Nancy Holt exhibition in Berlin that will make you rethink what you thought you knew about the monumental artist’s work.
