After three years, investigations and now a $4.4m lawsuit, Australia’s most controversial art exhibition finally opens

The National Gallery of Australia has finally opened 'Ngura Puḻka – Epic Country,' a landmark exhibition of 30 large-scale paintings by Indigenous artists from the Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands. The show’s debut comes after a three-year delay caused by explosive allegations in the media suggesting that white studio assistants had improperly intervened in the creation of the artworks.

The New York Historical Society has unveiled a special exhibition, "Delivering Justice: 150 Years of The Legal Aid Society," chronicling the history and impact of the nation's largest public defense provider.

James McNeill Whistler was more than just a combative ‘coxcomb’

Carol Jacobi, curator of a new exhibition at Tate Britain in London, aims to reframe the legacy of James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), an artist often reduced in public memory to his 1877 libel lawsuit against critic John Ruskin. The show, the UK's first full Whistler survey since 1994, highlights his prolific output, evolving style, and belief that art should seek "a more fundamental beauty" beyond mere impression. It brings together many of his celebrated nocturnes and, for the first time, his sketchbooks, though the infamous Nocturne in Black and Gold: The Falling Rocket (1875) could not be loaned.

The show was originally postponed in 2023 following allegations published in The Australian that white staff members had improperly interfered with the creation of the paintings.

Toledo Museum of Art exhibition to explore landscape of digital and generative art

The Toledo Museum of Art will open "Infinite Images: The Art of the Algorithm," a special exhibition curated by Julia Kaganskiy that explores digital and generative art from the 1960s to the present. The show features works created using custom software, algorithms, and machine learning models developed by the artists themselves, emphasizing rule-based systems and automation as part of the creative process. Associate Curator Paige Rozanski notes that the exhibition contextualizes generative art within a longer tradition of analog algorithmic processes, distinguishing it from AI-generated images produced by large language models like ChatGPT.
