Maché also serves breakfast, a perfect start to the day. In addition to a buffet with fresh fruit and juices, cold cuts and Iberian ham, cheeses, hummus, yogurts, breads, and pastries, there are à la carte dishes including eggs to order. Next to the pool you’ll find a sauna and a Turkish bath, and on the floor below there’s a very large gym with access to an interior patio and even a dance studio—yes, every one of the seven arts is represented at this hotel.

As it prepares to host the FIPP World Media Congress we ask Director Valerio Rocco Lozano what makes this independent institution the ideal place for bringing together the global media community The Círculo de Bellas Artes (CBA) has been a fundamental part of the cultural fabric of Madrid for almost a century and a half It was founded in 1880 by a group of artists as a centre for cultural dissemination it is a leading centre for the visual arts performing arts… we defend creative freedom is that we are non-profit institution that remains completely independent It means our programming is diverse – we host films The building that houses the Círculo de Bellas Artes is the work of the great architect Antonio Palacios and perfectly combines architectural grandeur with artistic and cultural functionality Choosing the Círculo for an event like this means choosing an emblematic venue in Madrid it means choosing an institution committed to freedom of expression – perfect for holding a conference about the future of media We love to welcome organisations with whom we share a vision to put each person’s individual knowledge at the service of others These are values ​​fully shared by the CBA; we aim to be a place of listening and sharing in order to move forward and we are committed to the humanities and science progress can only be achieved through generosity and active listening You’ll be able to enjoy the monumental architecture of Palacios as there’s always something going on at the Círculo: exhibitions our must-see rooftop terrace has one of the best views of the entire city as well as two excellent dining options: La Azotea and La Pecera but combines excellent preservation and modern facilities making it a venue perfectly suited to any type of event Walking through this area and enjoying the capital’s museums and gastronomic scene is an experience like no other Alyssa Wang conducted the Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra Sunday in West Newton There’s nothing quite as wonderful as when an instrument begins to breathe and the Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra certainly knows how to make their instruments sing Sunday afternoon’s program at Second Church in West Newton was an excellent combination of old wisdom and new ideas and conductor Alyssa Wang was able to draw color and nuance from the ensemble to deliver exciting performances First on the program was Franz Joseph Haydn’s Symphony no premiered in April 1791 when Haydn was living and composing in London It departs from its siblings in a few key respects: it is in a minor key where the others are all major and it has a quick attention-grabbing introduction where the others all begin more slowly Pro Arte took this somewhat lesser known symphony and breathed new life into it—the opening five notes are blended into a series of engorged silences which eventually release into the development of the main motif which soon gives way for a recapitulation that presents an answer to the question posed by the first idee fixe The second movement introduces the grand cello solo that is to come in the third; the fourth movement is delivered in a way that effortlessly delivers the intended smile without giving it away At times it almost felt like the strings were holding back the intricate and delicate passages were convincingly delivered and the woodwinds having a sort of effervescent quality Writing a solo concerto for viola is no easy task due to the difficulty of balancing the instrument’s lower tones with a chamber orchestra “I love the low sounds of the viola,” Higdon said in a 2015 interview “But I had set this challenge for myself that I wanted something that sounded very American in its rhythms… I wanted to find the right tempo for the virtuosic writing that works optimally for the instrument.” Black was fearless in her performance of the solo part able to make her instrument sing in a smooth sweetness that holds a hint of a granulated texture and Wang’s obvious rapport with the musicians is clearly at play as she successfully and confidently leads the ensemble through these tricky passages The third and final movement feels most like the quintessential American works while retaining some semblance of the erratic rhythms of the second movement the music sometimes meanders but unlike others it pulls itself back to deliver themes and phrases that tug at the heartstrings The program ended with eight selected movements from Stravinsky’s Pulcinella Suite and lighthearted end to a wonderful afternoon The ensemble lost none of its skill and passion for the music The Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra performs Mozart’s Kegelstatt Trio and Piano Quintet May 4 in West Newton. proarte.org and musician who has recently graduated from College of the Atlantic in Maine He has written for the Cape Ann Symphony Orchestra and contributed to publications such as COAmag Posted in Performances XHTML: You can use these tags: <a href="" title=""> <abbr title=""> <acronym title=""> <b> <blockquote cite=""> <cite> <code> <del datetime=""> <em> <i> <q cite=""> <s> <strike> <strong> Δdocument.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value" Experience the rich flavors and vibrant culture of Mexico at the Chicago Arte Agave Tequila & Mezcal Festival and an immersive celebration of agave spirits at Sarabande Highlights Sample over 100 varieties of tequila and mezcal Special expressions being poured during VIP Hour only: Don Fulano Imperial Extra Anejo Los Siete Misterios Pechuga Mezcal Create your own Spicy Margarita experience with Fiero Tequila with Featured Mixologists from Jook Sing and The Press Room Enjoy a refreshing Rancho Mexicano from El Mexicano Tequila and a spin on the classic Paloma with a crafted cocktail from Weber Ranch 1902 Vodka Traditional mariachi music by Mariachi Estrellas de Chicago Ballet Folkloric de Chicago dancers plus live pop-up performances Delicious tacos homemade salsas and guacamole y mas from 5 Rabanitos Maggie’s Sweets Artisan shopping featuring handcrafted goods: Alex Brightbill Arts Silva Espadas Custom Dia de los Muertos skull creating station with Genesis Tickets for Chicago Arte Agave Tequila & Mezcal Festival All-Inclusive General Admission: Event entry granted at 7 p.m unlimited tastings from all spirit and food vendors VIP All-Inclusive Admission: Exclusive early access at 6:00 PM – Enjoy the event before the crowds arrive All General Admission perks plus a premium Arte Agave tasting glass to elevate your experience Priority entry and an extra hour to enjoy rare and unique agave spirits before they’re gone 2025 VIP: 6 PM – 10 PM General Admission: 7 PM – 10 PM Location: Sarabande Chicago USA Age Requirement: 21+ with valid ID For more information Description Celebrate the art of agave at the Chicago Arte Agave Tequila & Mezcal Festival Indulge in unlimited tastings of premium agave spirits while enjoying traditional mariachi music Sample over 100 varieties of tequila and mezcal and savor authentic Mexican flavors through carefully curated culinary bites Whether you’re a tequila connoisseur or simply love a good fiesta this event promises an unforgettable night of culture Secure your tickets now for an immersive celebration of Mexico’s finest traditions Return to events calendar More info Sign up Get the guide Contact us © 2025 Choose Chicago.

Nicolas Antoine Taunay's Aqueduct at Rio de Janeiro (around 1816-17) is on show at Galeria Danielian’s stand at SP-Arte Courtesy Galeria Danielian For the international collectors and curators in attendance this year, the trip to SP-Arte has given them a deeper appreciation of Brazilian and Latin American art. Roca says: “If you want to see what is happening in this part of the world, you have to come to SP-Arte or other smaller fairs around the region.” news7 April 2022SP-Arte opens with upbeat expectations and a new sector championing unrepresented artistsBrazil’s foremost art fair is back in its usual time and place and collectors and gallerists have come to reconnect and do business news15 September 2023International galleries and collectors finally returning to Brazil’s ArtRio fairThe fair’s 80 exhibitors include a small but significant coterie of dealers from abroad while Brazilian collectors are out in force First Retrospective for Chicano Artist and Activist “So much of culture revolves around food – what we eat and what is discussed around the table” said Krystal Jones Executive Director of the Department of Arts & Culture “This retrospective captures the breadth and beauty of Rolando Briseño’s work social causes and food traditions to tell the story of Mexican Americans over the past 70-plus years It’s a visual testament to what has been lived Briseño joined local Chicano arts movements, helping to create numerous Latino arts organizations that still exist and bring arts to the masses today and abroad and found a niche in crafting art focused on the Mexican culinary story He reflected his homosexuality in his art and attained success as a public artist with many of his works featured in museums across the Americas Pivotal life-altering experiences also influenced his artistic focus with much of his work lost in a devastating home and studio fire found a life-long partner in artist Angel Rodriguez-Diaz and remained steadfast by his side through his passing last year “Briseño utilizes food as artistic building blocks: he erects model buildings out of dough and corn tortillas, and varieties of chiles serve as pigments,” said curator Ruben Cordova “Food developed by indigenous Americans transformed the world It enabled people in other areas to have adequate nutrition for the first time, and the variety of these foods enabled the advent of national cuisines.” “Dining with Rolando Briseño” features over 75 drawings public artworks and pieces that survived his home and studio fire His retrospective is free and open to the public Centro de Artes Gallery:Location: 101 S the UK’s biggest art prize for contemporary art has announced the shortlist for its biennial 11th edition which will be presented at multiple venues across Wales for the second time The six nominees for the £40,000 prize are the Palestinian-Canadian artist Jumana Emil Abboud; Zambian-born Anawana Haloba; the Peruvian artist Antonio Paucar; the Californian artist Kameelah Janan Rasheed; Sacintya Mohini Simpson of Australia and the Myanmar-born artist Sawangwongse Yawnghwe a UK charity which supported the last edition An exhibition of the selected artists will open at the National Museum Cardiff in October 2025 Artes Mundi adopted a new exhibition format expanding across Wales to venues such as Oriel Davies Gallery The same venues will participate in the next edition alongside Aberystwyth Arts Centre which is taking part for the first time is that all the artists can be seen together at the National Museum as well,” says a spokesperson the former artistic director of Ho Chi Minh City’s Factory Contemporary Arts Centre who also judged the last edition; Sohrab Mohebbi the director of SculptureCenter in New York and Marie Helene Pereira the senior curator (performative practices) at Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin The panel says in a statement: “Considering the fractious global politics we currently face the jury noted particular strength in the selected artists’ stories experiences and inherited memories as timely and necessary in this world that lives within a fear of difference.” The winner of Artes Mundi 10 was Taloi Havini who comes from Bougainville in Papua New Guinea.

Everywhere is open to the public from Saturday April 20 to Sunday November 24 at the Giardini and the Arsenale; it will be curated by Adriano Pedrosa and organised by La Biennale di Venezia 18 and 19; the awards ceremony and inauguration was held on 20 April 2024 La Biennale di Venezia launched a plan to reconsider all of its activities in light of recognized and consolidated principles of environmental sustainability the goal is to extend the achievement of “carbon neutrality” certification which was obtained in 2023 for La Biennale’s scheduled activities: the 80th Venice International Film Festival the 18th International Architecture Exhibition which was the first major Exhibition in this discipline to test in the field a tangible process for achieving carbon neutrality – while furthermore itself reflecting upon the themes of decolonisation and decarbonisation The Exhibition will take place in the Central Pavilion (Giardini) and in the Arsenale and it will present two sections: the Nucleo Contemporaneo and the Nucleo Storico the Biennale Arte 2024 has favored artists who have never participated in the International Exhibition—though a number of them may have been featured in a National Pavilion or in a past edition of the International Exhibition Special attention is being given to outdoor projects where a performance program is being planned with events during the pre-opening and closing weekend of the 60th Exhibition the title of the 60th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia is drawn from a series of works started in 2004 by the Paris-born and Palermo-based Claire Fontaine collective The works consist of neon sculptures in different colours that render in a growing number of languages the words “Foreigners Everywhere” from the name of a Turin collective who fought racism and xenophobia in Italy in the early 2000s «The expression Stranieri Ovunque - explains Adriano Pedrosa - has several meanings that wherever you go and wherever you are you will always encounter foreigners— they/we are everywhere are all etymologically connected to the strano Sigmund Freud’s Das Unheimliche comes to mind—The Uncanny in English which in Portuguese has indeed been translated as “o estranho”– the strange that is also familiar According to the American Heritage and the Oxford Dictionaries the first meaning of the word “queer” is precisely “strange” and thus the Exhibition unfolds and focuses on the production of other related subjects: the queer artist who has moved within different sexualities and genders often being persecuted or outlawed; the outsider artist who is located at the margins of the art world the folk artist and the artista popular; the indigenous artist frequently treated as a foreigner in his or her own land The productions of these four subjects are the interest of this Biennale «Indigenous artists have an emblematic presence and their work greets the public in the Central Pavilion where the Mahku collective from Brazil will paint a monumental mural on the building’s façade where the Maataho collective from Aotearoa/New Zealand will present a large-scale installation in the first room Queer artists appear throughout the exhibition and are also the subject of a large section in the Corderie and one devoted to queer abstraction in the Central Pavilion.» «The Nucleo Contemporaneo will feature a special section in the Corderie devoted to the Disobedience Archive which since 2005 has been developing a video archive focusing on the relationships between artistic practices and activism the presentation of the Disobedience Archive is designed by Juliana Ziebell who also worked in the exhibition architecture of the entire International Exhibition This section is divided into two main parts especially conceived for our framework: Diaspora activism and Gender Disobedience The Disobedience Archive will include works by 39 artists and collectives made between 1975 and 2023.» «The Nucleo Storico gathering works from 20th century Latin America Much has been written about global modernisms and modernisms in the Global South and a number of rooms will feature works from these territories a speculative curatorial exercise that seeks to question the boundaries and definitions of modernism We are all too familiar with the histories of modernism in Euroamerica yet the modernisms in the Global South remain largely unknown European modernism itself travelled far beyond Europe throughout the 20th century and many artists in the Global South traveled to Europe to be exposed to it […].» In the Central Pavilion three rooms are planned for the Nucleo Storico: one room is titled Portraits one Abstractions and the third one is devoted to the the worldwide Italian artistic diaspora in the 20th century mostly paintings but also works on paper and sculpture […] The theme of the human figure has been explored in countless different ways by artists in the Global South reflecting on the crisis of representation around the that very figure that marked much of the art in 20th century art many artists were in touch with European modernism yet they bring in their own highly personal and powerful reflections and contributions to their works […] The room devoted to Abstractions includes 37 artists: most of them are being exhibited together for the first time and we will learn from these unforeseen juxtapositions in the flesh which will then hopefully point towards new connections and parallels much beyond the rather straightforward categories that I have proposed Artists from Singapore and Korea have been brought into this section given that at the time they were part of the so-called Third World have been brought into this Nucleo Storico as they are historical Maori artists «[…] A third room in the Nucleo Storico is dedicated to the worldwide Italian artistic diaspora in the 20th century: Italian artists who travelled and moved abroad developing their careers in Africa as well as in the rest of Europe and the United States becoming embedded in local cultures—and who often played significant roles in the development of the narratives of modernism beyond Italy This room will feature works by 40 artists who are first or second generations Italians exhibited in Lina Bo Bardi’s glass easel display system (Bo Bardi herself an Italian who moved to Brazil and who won the 2021 Biennale Architettura’s Special Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement in Memoriam).» «Two quite different but related elements have emerged – underlines Pedrosa – rather organically in the research and have been developed appearing as leitmotivs throughout the International Exhibition which have been explored by many artists in the show in multiple from key historical figures in the Nucleo Storico to many artists in the Nucleo Contemporaneo […] These works reveal an interest in craft and in techniques that were at times considered other or foreign outsider or strange in the larger field of fine arts […] A second motif is artists—artists related by blood […] Again tradition plays an important role here: the transmission of knowledge and practices from father or mother to son or daughter or among siblings and relatives.» The Exhibition will also include 88 National Participations in the historic Pavilions at the Giardini at the Arsenale and in the city centre of Venice 4 countries will be participating for the first time at the Biennale Arte: Republic of Benin Republic of Panama and Senegal participate for the first time

despite losing 99 games a season ago wouldn’t quite make any predictions about the upcoming season when speaking to reporters on Monday but indicated he’s pleased with the overall direction of the franchise under general manager Perry Minasian and manager Ron Washington He believes in the young core of his club, which also added several veterans to the mix this offseason, such as left-hander Yusei Kikuchi, closer Kenley Jansen, DH Jorge Soler, catcher Travis d’Arnaud, right-hander Kyle Hendricks, third baseman Yoán Moncada and infielder Kevin Newman You have to continue to put up good building blocks And then the reality is being able to supplement everything.” did say he understands the frustration from fans that comes with not making the postseason since 2014 He said he believes it’s on him as the owner to build a winning franchise and said the blame can be cast on him for the team's recent struggles and I can't tell you how healthy he’s going to be and you've got to be healthy and they've got to play together There's 30 teams trying to accomplish the same thing every year.” Moreno came away pleased with the additions the club made this offseason but lamented not being able to add another slugger to the roster. The Angels did trade for Soler early in the offseason but did not add another impact bat Moreno said the Angels just never lined up financially with hitters on the free-agent market and the situation was similar for frontline starting pitchers He estimated that due to an elevated payroll his club will lose $50 million to $60 million this season “We accomplished a lot of stuff,” Moreno said we were targeting that we didn't get accomplished was a middle-of-the-order bat we were just unwilling to pay five or six years' worth of money for a DH because a couple guys that we wanted are not fielders But we decided to go early with Soler as the DH “And so we were looking at starters and we're looking at bats but starters are multiple years for $30 million 'Do we have enough depth to go pay $200 million?' And [Anthony] Rendon has two years left on his deal and he’s obviously not going to play this year.” Rendon is still owed $38.5 million this year and next season but might not play again for the Angels, as he’s set to undergo left hip surgery later this week Moreno wouldn’t speculate on if Rendon will play in ’26 but believes he’ll be out for ’25 “I can’t objectively comment on someone’s health and how they’re going to be health-wise,” Moreno said Moreno added that he has no plans to sell the club after exploring a sale in 2022 and that there is nothing new on a potential stadium deal with the City of Anaheim The Angels extended their lease at Angel Stadium through 2032 and Moreno said he’ll continually make upgrades to keep it safe and clean every offseason but that no major redevelopment is in the works Sign up to receive our daily Morning Lineup to stay in the know about the latest trending topics around Major League Baseball “I put money into that stadium every year,” Moreno said But I'm not going to put $200 or $300 million into a stadium that a city owns without any of their participation Maybe we'll get a new mayor and council that want us to stay.” Moreno said his relationship with the City of Tempe has been much better and he was proud of new renovations completed at the club’s Spring Training complex He said the next phase will be upgrading Tempe Diablo Stadium and he’s hopeful it’ll be ready by next spring “We've been partners with the city,” Moreno said We want to have outfield seating -- we're going to do that in right field -- and redo concessions the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando artists of the last third of the 19th century and first quarter of the 20th century inaugurated a new era for the print made up of 66 highly representative works by outstanding painters-engravers responds to the efforts of the National Engraving Society to broaden the knowledge of its collections for showing an important chapter in the history of Spanish printing at the turn of the century The academic engraving in sweet carving lost its hegemony from the second half of the nineteenth century as a reproduction procedure to the push and advance of lithography The resurgence of etching revealed the weakness of the burin to reproduce paintings which assumed a greater distance from the painting and sought pictorial effects adapting the color spots to the plastic resources provided by the etching The exact copy of the painting was no longer sought which avoided direct competition with photography The main figures of this movement were Ricardo de los Ríos and promoter of the society of artists who published the collection of prints entitled El grabador al aguafuerte The Belgian landscape designer Carlos de Haes played a decisive role in the spread of the creation’s etching in Spain The union of landscape and etching was one of the constants of Spanish engraving in the last third of the nineteenth century in which

currently on show in the "Arte Povera" exhibition Il presente – Uomo di schiena (“The Present – A Man from Behind”) depicts a silhouette of a back against a reflective black background I explored different ways of working the canvas searching for a light that would feel as if it came from within the canvas itself I experimented with gilded and silver backgrounds but ultimately wasn’t until I used black paint that I had the sensation of seeing a light appear within the work When I began to approach this image as a self-portrait my silhouette seemed to lift off the background by itself And that’s when I realized that everything that I was trying to capture in front of me actually lay behind this silhouette To expand this possibility offered by painting This material allowed me to fix a silhouette that reflected exactly what I saw in the work It had to be as precise and objective as the one revealed by the reflection and only photography could fulfil that requirement The Minus Objects constitute a rupture with the mirror principle I simply wanted to be phenomenologically useful and to depict something that exists for each one of us The Minus Objects suggest that a work’s existence is not defined solely by its materiality or visual representation Human memory is essential because human beings are both a physical machine and an engine of mental attraction I felt a need to collect all these newspapers When the ball was shown as part of the Minus Objects That’s when I thought to myself: “Why not roll it outside my studio people on the street came up and began to move the sphere of their own accord I understood that the sphere itself had the power to represent the concept of “chance” It gives rise to a kind of personal competition in which everyone is trying to direct this sense of chance towards a goal That’s why I think sports like football are so important Chance plays a central role in them; two people square off on the pitch each one trying to control this sense of chance in their favour but it does require participation to manifest itself The Arte Povera exhibition features a physical cubic meter made of six mirrors whose reflective surface faces inward This cube generates an infinite repetition Its physical structure is key to its effect; without this the phenomenon of infinite multiplication doesn’t exist It’s precisely this cubic meter: an untouchable infinity minus the tangible fraction embodied by this cube I did in fact trace the symbol of infinity in the sand for this piece But it is not limited to a simple line that crosses over itself once to form two circles; this instead crosses itself twice to form three circles The central space represents an empty space a place of expectation where different elements This point of convergence represents existence as much as our thoughts about existence It is an alliance of physicality and thought This drawing ultimately vanishes as the wind moves the sand I immediately took a photograph because at least that will last People can participate in the work if I give them the chance to enter These paintings lead to an AI that responds to various questions: “Can you write a text on Pistoletto’s mirror-paintings?” “What is the Venus of the Rags?” “What are the Minus Objects?” “What is the Citta dell’Arte The sixth painting suggests: “Make a piece by Michelangelo Pistoletto ” To which the AI responds: “ I cannot physically respond by making a work but I can tell you how I think Pistoletto would make a piece today” And it describes the work I am making right now exactly At a lecture that I gave in the US a few years ago Arte Povera artists were not bound by an ideal or a practice involving set elements or theories They dealt with a need to arrive at something essential that lay beyond the superfluous Open Monday to Sunday from 11:00 am to 7:00 pmLate opening on Friday until 9:00 pmClosed on Tuesdays and May 1Late opening every first Saturday of the month from 5pm to 9pm Practical information Get the latest news from the Bourse de Commerce Despite the official arrival of Brazilian autumn, a hot and sticky day took over the city of São Paulo for the VIP day of SP-Arte 2025 on Wednesday buzzing atmosphere inside the Bienal Pavilion at Ibirapuera Park where the 21st edition of Brazil’s largest art fair kicked off with palpable excitement among gallerists and attendees A flow of visitors was steady once the fair opened at 10 a.m. and grew in the afternoon, with smiles, selfies, and the clinking of glasses setting a jovial scene. As the sun set in the evening behind the glass windows of the Oscar Niemeyer-designed circular building a DJ set only enhanced the fair’s festive and energetic tone Founded in 2005 by the collector Fernanda Feitosa SP-Arte remains firmly committed to its original ambition: to project Latin American art to the world from the cultural epicenter of Brazil Nearly 180 booths make up this year’s fair as well as institutional participants and publishers Some 102 contemporary and modern art galleries—12 of them international—are among them This year’s edition of the fair is notably taking place at a time of renewed international enthusiasm for Latin American art. Last year’s Venice Biennale main show, “Foreigners Everywhere,” was curated by Brazilian Adriano Pedrosa artistic director of the local institution Museum of Art of São Paulo (MASP) and placed Latin American and Global South artists at its center “The Venice Biennale has played a crucial role in elevating the visibility of historically underrepresented voices, such as Indigenous creator Joseca Mokahesi Yanomami or Rubem Valentim,” said Hena Lee a partner and director of Almeida & Dale “This evolving landscape is reflected in the fair where diversity has become increasingly prominent.” The gallery—one of the leading names in Brazil—has three locations in São Paulo and recently made waves in the Brazilian art world by purchasing Millan, another Brazilian stalwart gallery with three exhibition spaces in the city. It has two booths at the fair. One, just past the entrance, features works starting at US$125,000, with highlights including a 1972 piece by the late Brazilian sculptor Sergio Camargo priced at US$2.2 million works range in price from US$5,000 to US$50,000 Installation view of Almeida & Dale’s booth at SP-Arte 2025 it’s easier for us to present new artists or those from less represented regions,” explained Tomás Toledo of local gallery Galatea the typical SP-Arte collector is mostly local and traditional but “there’s an emerging scene of younger collectors from the financial sector who are looking for more contemporary artists.” the fair has been both a witness and a driver of São Paulo's evolution as an artistic hub of the Global South It also functions as a thermometer for the Brazilian art scene: The ground floor houses historical artists the first floor is dedicated to contemporary art the third floor is open to the general public featuring a VIP lounge and a series of talks Installation view of Galatea’s booth at SP-Arte 2025 Feitosa noted that the landscape of the fair has changed after the COVID-19 pandemic: The number of international galleries is still lower than before 2020 “This year the fair is 90% national,” she noted is an expanded interest in other regions of Brazil beyond the traditional São Paulo–Rio de Janeiro axis its audience is becoming increasingly international “We have a record number of international visitors this year,” noted Feitosa Collector interest was apparent from the start of the fair “We’ve already sold several works totaling R$3 million ($533,499),” said Galatea’s Toledo midway through the fair’s VIP day “We had an excellent first day,” reported partner and director Alexandre Gabriel At local powerhouse Mendes Wood DM, works by Lucas Arruda, Sonia Gomes, and Guatemalan artist Edgar Calel were among the luminaries receiving strong attention “We’ll have to make a lot of changes to the booth for tomorrow,” said Isadora Ganem with sales ranging from US$10,000 to over US$100,000.” While painting appears to be the dominant medium across the fair a strong presence of ceramics and textiles is also notable Also prominent are references to Indigenous cosmologies and decolonial narratives linked to the African diaspora with works priced between US$3,500–US$12,000 apiece Installation view of Yehudi Hollander-Pappi’s booth at SP-Arte 2025 the gallery had already sold works to private collections in Los Angeles and to local institution Pinacoteca de São Paulo The presence and demand for works by women artists also continues to grow at SP-Arte. “The fair is a party,” said Brazilian collector Ana Paula Cestari, who focuses mainly on women Brazilian artists. “I meet friends, talk to gallerists, see what artists are producing. It’s important to arrive early: When I got here at 11 am, a piece I wanted to inquire about by Marina Rheingantz had already sold,” she added Cestari said that she would—if she could—purchase works by Lygia Pape, Lygia Clark, or Adriana Varejão. In a group chat with other collectors, they share anecdotes and favorites from the fair. “A friend tried to buy a work by Daniel Senise it was already being negotiated with a local museum.” She noted that the growth of international interest for Brazilian art is only strengthening her passion for ‘brasilidades,’ a concept referring to the country's unique cultural identity SP-Arte has not only consolidated a scene—it has helped build a market “People often say there is a Brazilian art market before and after SP-Arte,” said Feitosa it sets the tone for the year to come.” And at a time when Latin American art is in the global spotlight the diversity and quality of Brazilian production on view here will only go further in positioning the country as a key player on the international art circuit Angels owner Arte Moreno and team chairman Dennis Kuhl have not complied with a subpoena for discovery in a case brought by the family of former pitcher Tyler Skaggs The Angels are defendants in an upcoming wrongful death civil trial brought by relatives of Skaggs The Skaggs family has contended the Angels knew of a culture of illegal drug use within the organization A pre-trial conference is scheduled for Jan Kay was convicted of distribution of a controlled substance resulting in death and conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute controlled substances He will serve a 22-year federal prison sentence What’s followed has been a contentious legal battle between the Angels and the Skaggs family with a discovery referee appointed by the court to resolve numerous disputes that have continued to cause delays the referee has sided with the Skaggs family and attempted to avoid delay attempts from the Angels “Moreno and Kuhl have not complied with their discovery obligations under the subpoena as ordered by the referee in her Aug 5 ruling,” wrote referee Gail Andler on Thursday adding in the document that a further ruling on financial sanctions against the Angels could become appropriate Moreno and Kuhl were ordered in that August ruling to provide responsive documents from their cell phones and personal emails The referee stated then that she was “not persuaded by the Angels’ position that Moreno and Kuhl are not obligated to respond to discovery because other third parties are doing so.” which noted that Moreno and Kuhl contended that no such documents existed the referee noted that their lawyers did not specify the process by which they determined no responsive documents existed the referee contended it was unclear which devices Moreno and Kuhl had searched and if any responsive documents had ever been on those devices and later removed She ordered that their counsel provided an amended declaration outlining the search that was conducted in response to her August ruling which was initially scheduled to take place in 2023 has been delayed in large part due to arguments over discovery The Skaggs family has contended that the Angels have refused to hand over relevant documents or follow through on scheduled depositions The discovery referee and the trial judge have worked to move the case forward in recent rulings. In December, the judge denied the Angels’ request for a seven-month delay And the referee has ruled in the Skaggs family’s favor on several recent disputes In addition to the Moreno and Kuhl rulings 19 that up to 77 Angels employees will have their cell phones collected and searched by the team for potentially relevant information All responsive documents have to be turned over by Jan It is unclear which employees this pertains to though the ruling specified those who have their phone bills reimbursed by the Angels The ruling referenced text messages from Angels benefits manager Cecilia Schneider who sent messages in October 2017 about Eric Kay’s drug use It also referenced texted messages from Tim Mead and Kay’s exchanges with Angels traveling secretary Tom Taylor on the topic Emails from Schneider were produced before deposition testimony but weren’t produced by the Angels The referee “questions why those particular emails were not flagged under the existing protocol’s search terms for production.” “The Referee believes more is required for the Angels to comply with their discovery obligations to produce relevant documents from their current employees’ cell phones,” Andler wrote in the filing The referee also previously ordered a stringent deposition schedule be followed, following the Angels’ cancelations. This includes superstar Mike Trout He’s expected to be asked about the Angels’ culture and his relationship with Skaggs An Angels team spokesperson said in a written statement that “Angels baseball has honored all requirements and has faithfully followed and will continue to follow all of the Judge’s directives.” (Photo of Moreno: Ashley Landis / Associated Press) Sam Blum is a staff writer for

both in Puerto Rico and abroad We are delighted to inaugurate the exhibition tour of The Sense of Beauty at the renowned Meadows Museum We are sister institutions in many ways and share parallel histories; both museums were begun by visionary collectors in the late 1950s to bring art to their communities and both museums opened to the public in 1965.” Custard Director of the Meadows Museum and Centennial Chair in the Meadows School of the Arts “The Meadows is proud to have been the first museum approached to host this exhibition and we have enthusiastically supported its development from the beginning We look forward to introducing North Texas audiences to the extraordinarily diverse and rich collection of the Museo de Arte de Ponce.” The exhibition will be on view at the Meadows

treatises called artes that survive from the Roman period on such disciplines as architecture are generally handled in isolation from one another by specialists James Zainaldin (Vanderbilt) will introduce the artes of the early Roman Empire the preeminent age of the flourishing of such literature and argue that in spite of the modern situation they can only be fully appreciated if considered together as the several parts of an ancient Roman ideal of polymathy the artes are seen to participate in a common intellectual and literary culture that is in fact a specifically scientific culture The purpose of this talk will be to characterize the significance of this uniquely Roman scientific culture the recognition of which adds news chapters to Greco-Roman intellectual history and the history of science and technology in the pre-modern world and to describe some of the dynamics informing its emergence and development much more than manuals for practice or narrow specialist introductions to their topics They are sophisticated works of literature that reflect the Roman understanding of the natural and human worlds It is sponsored by the Department of

University of Colorado Boulder the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza in Madrid presents the exhibition Proust and the arts on the importance of art in the work of one of the most influential writers of the twentieth century recognized not only in literature but also in philosophy and theory of art The aesthetic ideas that Proust develops in his work monumental and landscape environments that surrounded him and that he recreates in his books as well as the contemporary or past artists who served as his stimulus are some of the aspects that articulate the exhibition’s journey The aim is to highlight this link and the interrelation between art and its figure it is important to know the Paris in which he lived the cosmopolitan and rich capital of the Third Republic its great transformation after the urban reforms of Baron Haussmann Proust was passionate not only about the arts but also about this modernity that was so booming at the end of the 19th century The image of modernity created by the impressionist painters through their representation of the streets and other environments of Paris is at the base of the Proustian aesthetic: all this would mark his biography as well as his writings a sculpture by Émile Antoine Bourdelle and the aforementioned designs by Fortuny and other creators of the time the exhibition includes a selection of books by Proust from the

The Santurce Fine Arts Center was inaugurated four decades ago and is currently going through a phase of improvements. The Luis A. Ferré Fine Arts Center Corporation commemorates its 44th anniversary with a special event at the Antonio Paoli Festival Hall. To celebrate this significant occasion, the historic special "Puerto Rico Fine Arts Center: The Heartbeat of a People" narrated by Cordelia González and José Juan Tañón will be presented. Since its inauguration on April 9, 1981, the Centro de Bellas Artes has been a fundamental pillar in Puerto Rico's artistic and cultural scene. Designed by architect Rodolfo Fernández, this space has hosted countless theatrical productions, artistic presentations and concerts, consolidating itself as an essential meeting point for local and international talent. "We want it to be a meeting of the public with their artists and of the artists with their creation center. Above all, the new generations do not know the great historical trajectory of the Centro de Bellas Artes. It is a way of honoring all those people who have left their mark on these 44 years of culture," says Jetppeht Perez de Corcho Morgado, General Manager. The Luis A. Ferré Fine Arts Center has five rooms and a multipurpose pavilion, as well as seven rehearsal rooms and 26 dressing rooms, providing an ideal space for artistic creation and exhibition. For more than four decades, it has been a workshop for local artists and a platform for cultural exchange with renowned international figures. "We have been working on this historic document for more than three years. The process of compiling data, plans, architecture, works, among many other memories has been extremely interesting and enriching. With this, we want to honor one of the most important and historic squares in our country," adds the professor and manager, Idamaly Jiménez. The celebration of the 44th anniversary reaffirms the Center's commitment to the development and dissemination of the arts in Puerto Rico. That is why the public will be able to enjoy this documentary free of charge and in person on Wednesday, April 9 at the Antonio Paoli Festivals room from 7 p.m. In addition, the historical special will be presented simultaneously with WIPR.

Chika Okeke-Agulu Nigerian curator and art critic; Elena Crippa decided to award the official prizes as follows: Biennale College Arte 2023/24 took place for the second time with young emerging artists under the age of 30 selected by the Curator from the over 150 applications submitted from 37 countries around the world The finalists in this edition – Agnes Questionmark Nazira Karimi – enjoyed a grant of 25,000 euro for the realization of the final work they presented The Biennale Sessions project – dedicated to Universities research and educational institutions in the visual arts and similar fields – for the twelfth consecutive year has drawn groups of students and teachers to visit the Exhibition registering the extraordinary participation of foreign universities A total of 80,613 participants (4704 groups) took part in the educational activities and guided tour services 58% of the young participants in the educational activities were from the Veneto region Since 2021 La Biennale has begun a process to review all of its activities in the light of consolidated and recognized principles of environmental sustainability the goal once again was to achieve “carbon neutral” certification which it achieved in 2023 for all of La Biennale’s programmed activities: the 80th Venice International Film Festival the 18th International Architecture Exhibition which was the first major Exhibition in this discipline to test a tangible process to achieve carbon neutrality while furthermore reflecting upon the themes of decolonisation and decarbonisation La Biennale is working concretely towards the crucial goal of fighting climate change by adopting a more sustainable model for the design installation and operation of all its activities  by accurately collecting the data on the causes of the CO2 emissions generated by the events themselves the most important component of the overall carbon footprint involves the mobility of the visitors The entire process for achieving carbon neutrality conducted in compliance with the international standard PAS2060 And we would particularly like to thank the Curator The videos of all the initiatives of the Exhibition may be seen on Biennale Channel is doing what he does best right now -- penny pinching and meddling with his front office's dealings There are several free agents who are out there for the taking but Moreno's hamstringing tactics and squabbling over prices are preventing the ever-interested Angels from adding another impact player in a timely fashion but more of the continuous reminder that Moreno has single-handedly dragged the Angels into the dregs of the league The reason for the Angels' sudden dormancy in free agency is becoming more-and-more apparent When MLB reporters write or talk about how organizations are strategizing potential transactions they almost always refer to how president of baseball operations/general manager is thinking Let's see if you notice a pattern with how these insiders discuss the Los Angeles Angels These are all quotes from 2025 about the Angels' offseason Here's Jon Heyman: “I do believe Arte Moreno wants to get another big bat in there And they would move Schanuel out to LF if they were to do that I think Santander is probably a little more likely.” More from Robert Murray: "You know Arte Moreno I don't think the Angels would hesitate The only thing that is really preventing that from happening right now is the prices." Then there's this from Ken Rosenthal: "Angels owner Arte Moreno can be unpredictable the free-agent opportunities available and the state of the AL it would not be surprising to see him strike." Arte Moreno probably views himself as the Jerry Jones of MLB in that he is both the owner and general manager of his team Moreno has not had a successful regular season in over a decade and the Dallas Cowboys do not have an actual general manager the Angels' owner's influence on his front offices and general managers over the years have led the once-great franchise to decay before everybody's eyes Instead of operating like a big market team that LAA is Moreno and John Carpino put heavy budget constraints on the front office and Moreno retains final say on which free agents he will actually spend money on When the Angels announced that they are retaining every member of the major league coaching staff and front office (plus adding Sal Fasano) Moreno is known to cycle through the leaders of the front office and ballclub quickly and it's nice to see that people who do not deserve to lose their job Minasian is a great leader and shot-caller when he is emboldened by an owner willing to spend money on the right players The crux of the Angels' souring as a franchise remains the same despite the continuity of the coaches and staffers and the franchise undoubtedly will not succeed again until he is through with handicapping his decision-makers and sells the team did Moreno not sell the team before the 2023 season ","https://fansided.com/",{"alt":"6b","src":"6c","url":"6d"},{"type":"6a","value":"6e"},"link","Minute Media","https://minutemedia.com",{"text":"6h","url":"6i"},{"type":"6g","value":"6j"},"All Rights Reserved Betting and gambling content is intended for individuals 21+ and is based on individual commentators' opinions and not that of Minute Media or its affiliates and related brands after pitching collegiately at Davidson College for 4 he worked with the Boston Red Sox at their Pawtucket affiliate for the 2019 season as a Player Development Intern \n\nHe picked up with the Chicago White Sox in 2020 but after the Minor League season was canceled he worked with Team USA Baseball at their National Training Complex as a Trackman Stringer/Operator he worked with the Los Angeles Angels as a Game Planning Strategist at their Arizona (ROK League) He attended the Angels' last 2 Major League Spring Trainings he coached 1st base and assisted the players & coaches in the dugout Here's Jon Heyman: “I do believe Arte Moreno wants to get another big bat in there More from Robert Murray: "You know Arte Moreno Then there's this from Ken Rosenthal: "Angels owner Arte Moreno can be unpredictable and Arte Moreno is maybe the worst owner in North American sports
