Good morning. The Whitney Museum of American Art recently canceled a performance about Palestinian mourning, scheduled to be presented as part of the prestigious Independent Study Program's curatorial exhibition. Artists, curators, and writers in the program have responded by withdrawing works and speaking out publicly in protest. News Editor Valentina Di Liscia has the story. In reviews today, Ela Bittencourt considers a group show of women working in computer art, exploring how they both probe gender norms through digital mediums and warn against a grim cyborgian future. Read on for Nordic art’s home in the American Midwest and the discovery of a new form of Aboriginal rock art, revealing humans’ ancient kinship with animals. And don’t forget to have a go at this month’s mini crossword puzzle, featuring Turner paintings and a studio that might sound familiar to the artists out there. Happy reading! — Lakshmi Rivera Amin, Associate Editor | |
