Meet the Woman Who Curated the Art on Miranda Priestly’s Walls

Fanny Pereire, an art advisor specializing in film and television, curates the art seen on the walls of fictional characters like Miranda Priestly in *The Devil Wears Prada 2*, Logan Roy in *Succession*, and Bobby Axelrod in *Billions*. She works as a fine art coordinator, sourcing reproductions and original works to match character personalities and socioeconomic status, often overseeing the destruction of replicas after filming. Her role, created by producer Scott Rudin in 1999, involves clearing copyrights for every artwork shown on screen, from children's drawings to high-end pieces by artists like Wayne Thiebaud and Alex Katz.

A parent takes their toddler to Frameless, an immersive digital art experience in London, where works by Hieronymus Bosch, Claude Monet, and Georges Seurat are projected onto walls, ceilings, and floors. The child reacts with mixed engagement—enjoying some moments but feeling overwhelmed by the frenetic, screen-based environment—while the author reflects on the tension between traditional static art and animated digital reproductions.

Extended from one volume to three, the new ‘Taste and the Antique’ expands on four centuries of interactions with sculpture

A new, expanded edition of the seminal art-historical reference work 'Taste and the Antique' has been released, growing from one volume to three. Originally published in 1981 by Francis Haskell and Nicholas Penny, the book traced the reception history of ancient Greek and Roman statues from 1500 to 1900. This updated version features full-color photography of all 95 canonical works, including multiple angles and detail shots, overcoming the original edition's criticized monochrome images. A third volume illustrates copies, prints, casts, and reproductions of the statues across media and centuries, from Renaissance drawings to modern advertisements and photographs.

700 Years of Tenochtitlan (again): Mexico honours its pre-Hispanic capital

Mexico is commemorating the 700th anniversary of the founding of México-Tenochtitlan with a series of public events including art installations, urban routes, performances, and dances organized by federal and local authorities. The festivities, centered on the Zócalo near the Templo Mayor site, feature large-scale reproductions of Mexica artifacts such as the Aztec Calendar Stone and the Coatlicue statue, along with a video-mapping projection titled "Memoria Luminosa" that narrates the city's history. The celebration follows a similar event in 2021 led by then-president Andrés Manuel López Obrador, which drew criticism for historical inaccuracies and political manipulation.
