an indigenous takeover of the met asks who should be writing art history

An unsanctioned augmented reality exhibition titled “Encoded” has taken over the American Wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, featuring works by 17 North American Indigenous artists. The exhibition, organized by the nonprofit media lab Amplifier and co-curated by Tracy Rector, overlays digital artworks onto iconic paintings and sculptures, including a piece by Josué Riva that replaces Thomas Sully’s portrait of Queen Victoria with a moving image of Acosia Red Elk (Umatilla, Cayuse & Nez Perce) delivering the message “Be a Good Ancestor.” The intervention launched on Indigenous Peoples’ Day and Columbus Day, October 13, 2025, and runs through December 13, without the Met’s permission.

Francis Kéré's design for Las Vegas Museum of Art revealed

The Las Vegas Museum of Art (LVMA) has revealed renderings for its new 60,000-square-foot building, designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Francis Kéré. Set to open in 2029 at Symphony Park in downtown Las Vegas, the four-floor museum features a stone mosaic façade sourced from the Red Rock Mountains, a shaded front porch, a canyon-like grand staircase, and galleries inspired by Modernist architect Paul R. Williams. Baobab trees, symbolizing community, inform the design. The $200 million capital campaign, supported by the late Elaine Wynn and other trustees, has passed the halfway mark. The museum is a partnership with the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (Lacma) and will showcase works from its collection, with Lacma director Michael Govan serving as a founding trustee. A satellite exhibition, Family Album, is currently on view, and a 15,000-square-foot gallery and media lab will open next year.
