Alejandro G. Iñárritu will debut a filmic exhibition at Fondazione Prada.
This September, Fondazione Prada will unveil Sueño Perro, a film installation by Alejandro G. Iñárritu that revisits the raw material from Amores Perros, the director’s breakout film. Projected across a dimly lit labyrinth using 35mm analog reels, the exhibition assembles unseen footage salvaged from the cutting-room floor and reimagines it through light, sound, and celluloid texture. Conceived not as a tribute but a resurrection, the show strips narrative in favor of sensory presence, staging what Iñárritu calls “an invitation to feel what never was.” A second component by Juan Villoro adds documentary layers, expanding the installation into a meditation on Mexico City’s cultural and political moment at the turn of the millennium.
The state of California has fined Shein $700,000 over illegal shipping delays.
Shein has agreed to pay $700,000 to settle a lawsuit brought by several California counties over repeated violations of the state’s shipping regulations. The fast-fashion giant was accused of failing to notify customers or issue refunds when orders weren’t shipped within 30 days, as required by law. Under the court-ordered settlement, Shein must also stop making misleading claims about delivery timelines. While the company did not admit wrongdoing, it stated that it has updated its shipping and customer service practices to comply with California law.
You could own an “arty treasure” of Roy and Dorothy Lichtenstein’s for as little as $300.
Bonhams will auction off pieces from Roy and Dorothy Lichtenstein’s Southampton beach house this July, offering a rare glimpse into the personal tastes of the influential couple. The online sale features works by their contemporaries—Jasper Johns, Ellsworth Kelly, Robert Rauschenberg—as well as antique furnishings, spongeware ceramics, and studio ephemera. While a Matisse drawing headlines the sale with a $60,000 estimate, art books and other intimate objects start as low as $300, making the Lichtensteins’ world briefly accessible to collectors well beyond the blue-chip tier.
Shamim Momin, formerly of the Whitney and Henry Art Gallery, is the Bronx Museum’s new director and chief curator.
Shamim Momin will take over as director and chief curator of the Bronx Museum of the Arts this September, returning to New York after curatorial roles at the Whitney, the Los Angeles Nomadic Division, and, most recently, the Henry Art Gallery in Seattle. Her appointment comes as the museum undergoes a $42.9 million expansion designed by the architectural studio Marvel and set to open in 2026 with new exhibition spaces and a redesigned entrance along the Grand Concourse. Known for advancing emerging and underrepresented voices, Momin brings curatorial rigor and institutional leadership to a museum long rooted in community access and socially engaged programming.
The Bayeux tapestry, “the world’s first war propaganda,” will return to England for the first time in almost a century.
The Bayeux Tapestry—an 11th-century embroidery often described as the world’s first example of war propaganda—will return to England for a temporary exhibition at The British Museum in 2026. This marks the textile’s first display in the country in nearly a millennium. Created shortly after the Battle of Hastings and likely stitched in England before being housed for centuries in Normandy, the 224-foot linen and wool tableau chronicles William the Conqueror’s 1066 invasion in graphic, scroll-like scenes. The loan, announced during French President Emmanuel Macron’s state visit to the U.K., coincides with renovations at the Bayeux Museum and reflects a broader shift in institutional attitudes toward cultural exchange and restitution.
Today’s attractive distractions:
Jenny Saville has forever changed the art of the female nude.
The Sapphic party scene in New York is, in fact, thriving.
A “brilliant and bizarre” photo show in Arles looks far beyond French borders.
This is everything we know about The Devil Wears Prada 2.
