kerry james marshall royal academy exhibition new paintings

Kerry James Marshall, a leading American painter, has debuted a new series of paintings as part of his survey exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in London. The works, featured in a section titled “Africa Revisited,” examine the involvement of Africans in the transatlantic slave trade, a topic Marshall says is often ignored because it complicates simplistic narratives of good versus evil. One painting, *Abduction of Olaudah and His Sister* (2023), depicts the kidnapping of 18th-century writer Olaudah Equiano, while three others—*Outbound*, *Haul*, and *Cove* (all 2025)—show Black figures actively participating in the slave trade. Marshall’s earlier Middle Passage works from the 1990s are also on view.

The piece requires participants to undergo a full-body scan using 96 cameras, creating a detailed 3D model that is uploaded into a VR environment. Once inside, pairs of participants find they have swapped bodies, experiencing a disorienting and intimate encounter where they watch their own body being controlled by another person. The work involves a lengthy, ritualistic queue and a twelve-minute VR session that explores themes of identity, voyeurism, and technological mediation.

leonor fini

On the 100th anniversary of Surrealism, the article highlights the belated recognition of Leonor Fini (1907–1996), a self-taught artist who rejected labels such as 'Surrealist' or 'woman artist.' Despite her insistence on being seen simply as an artist, her sensual, mythological paintings are gaining renewed attention. Fini debuted in 1929, was featured in the 2022 Venice Biennale, and had a solo exhibition at Kasmin gallery in New York. Her market high came in 2021 when a self-portrait sold for $2.3 million at Sotheby's, and her work is now included in the centennial surrealist show 'Imagine!' at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Belgium.
