Zohran Mamdani Visited MoMA PS1’s Greater New York—and Loved It

New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani visited MoMA PS1's recurring survey exhibition "Greater New York" alongside New York State Representative Claire Valdez. PS1 director Connie Butler shared the news on Instagram, posting images of the politicians smiling and raising their arms near an installation by Palestinian American photographer Dean Majd. Majd's work features photographs of communities in New York and the West Bank, including a portrait of Mahmoud Khalil, an Algerian Palestinian activist detained by ICE. The exhibition, which runs through August 17, includes 53 artists and focuses on themes of urban decay, infrastructural failure, and survival.

Pavel Brǎila on Representing Moldova at the 61st Venice Biennale

Pavel Brǎila is representing Moldova at the 61st Venice Biennale with an installation titled "Echoes of Harmony and Silent Cries" (2026), featuring flying carpets that fill the pavilion space at Santa Veneranda. In an interview with ArtReview, Brǎila explains that the work was driven by the constant presence of war in the news—Ukraine, Israel and Gaza, and other conflicts—and evolved into a sound installation as the propellers of the carpets created a minor-key resonance. He describes his first visit to the Biennale 25 years ago as a festive art festival, but now sees the platform as a crucial opportunity to represent his country's voice and express his urgent feelings about the world.
