Glenn Lowry is stepping down as director of MoMA after nearly 30 years, a tenure that began with skepticism due to his background in Islamic art and leadership of the Art Gallery of Ontario. Under his guidance, MoMA underwent two major expansions, grew its collection to over 200,000 works, opened the PS1 satellite space, and now attracts nearly 2.7 million annual visitors. Lowry navigated the museum through crises including 9/11, the 2008 financial crisis, Covid, and the 2021 protests that led to board chair Leon Black's resignation. Elsewhere, art dealer Michael Reid warns that AI will initially cut gallery jobs before boosting productivity, and the University of Applied Arts Vienna has accepted Flynn, an AI art student, into its Fine Arts program.

Speaking from his David Chipperfield-designed studio in London, the artist reflects on his rigorous daily practice and his background in art history, contrasting his own ascetic, industrial aesthetic with the fleshy opulence of Flemish masters like Rubens.
