Mom, I'm Gonna Be an Artist!

Hyperallergic's Saturday newsletter, edited by Valentina Di Liscia, rounds up a week of art-world activity marked by protests and resistance. Staff Writer Isa Farfan asked 15 artists to share advice from their mothers for Mother's Day, featuring responses from Pat Oleszko, whose work is in the Whitney Biennial. The newsletter also covers editor-in-chief Hakim Bishara's report on a historic strike for Palestine and workers' rights at the Venice Biennale, where dozens of national pavilions shut down, and Editor-at-Large Hrag Vartanian's review of the central exhibition "In Minor Keys." Additional stories include Damien Davis on artists and consignment agreements, Matt Stromberg on the LA Art Book Fair, a protest against Jeff Bezos at the Met Gala, MoMA PS1's upcoming Teresa Margolles survey, and a picket at the American Folk Art Museum.

more artists claim owed money london arusha gallery

Ten artists issued a joint statement accusing London's Arusha Gallery of failing to pay nearly $700,000 in long overdue payments. The artists—Pippa Young, Anna Rocke, Plum Cloutman, Ilona Szalay, Megan Rea, Kate Walters, Gail Harvey, Morwenna Morrison, Helen Flockhart, and Charlotte Keates—claimed they faced extreme difficulty obtaining payment for sold work, often waiting months or years. Charlotte Keates, represented by lawyer Jon Sharples, said she is owed £430,000 ($580,000) from sales dating back to 2023, though the gallery's owner, Bella Arusha Collins King, disputed the amount. Additional artists, including Beth Carter, Andrei Pokrovskii, Fiona Finnegan, and the trust of Norman Gilbert, also came forward with claims of non-payment. The gallery acknowledged that some payments are missing and expressed regret.
