Straight-line storytelling: how will the British Museum display the Bayeux Tapestry?

The British Museum (BM) is planning to display the Bayeux Tapestry from September 2026 to July 2027, following a loan agreement with the French government. The tapestry, owned by the French state, will return to England for the first time in nearly a thousand years after its dedicated museum in Bayeux closed for renovations. The BM's Sainsbury Exhibitions Gallery is long enough to accommodate the 70-meter embroidered strip in a single straight line, a key factor in securing the loan over other contenders like the Victoria and Albert Museum. Conservators will display the tapestry at a 60-degree angle with low lighting to minimize fading, and visitors will likely follow an audio-guided tour with 25 minutes to view the 58 scenes.

Participants withdraw from Chicago Architecture Biennial over sponsor’s investment in weapons manufacturer

Nine participants in the Chicago Architecture Biennial (CAB), which opened on September 19, have withdrawn in protest over exhibition sponsor Crown Family Philanthropies' investment in General Dynamics, a military contractor supplying weapons to the Israeli military. A letter signed by 22 individuals, collectives, and firms—nearly half of whom also withdrew—argues that the sponsorship contradicts the biennial's mission of addressing architecture's role in shaping a collective future. The biennial's sixth edition, titled SHIFT: Architecture in Times of Radical Change, is led by artistic director Florencia Rodriguez. Participants had raised concerns last month, and organizers clarified that Crown Family funds support education programming, not the exhibition itself, which the letter calls "even more painful" given the destruction of schools in Gaza.

Delhi exhibition highlights India's controversial slum redevelopments

Artist Paribartana Mohanty's solo exhibition "I Rescued Speed Altogether" at Delhi's Shrine Empire gallery presents 12 paintings and three moving-image works created over eight years of documenting the demolition of the Kathputli art colony, a historic slum cluster in west Delhi known for its street performers. The works, mounted on found objects like glue cans and plastic, focus on the objects and landscapes left behind after demolitions, with human figures absent from the canvases. Mohanty's title comes from his three-year-old son's triumphant statement after learning to pedal a bicycle, which the artist sees as an absurd phrase fitting for what he calls the "absurd acts" of demolition.
