Michael Asher at Artists Space review

Artists Space in New York is hosting a posthumous survey of Michael Asher, the influential conceptual artist who died in 2012. Curated by Jay Sanders and Stella Cilman, the exhibition focuses not on Asher's well-known site-specific interventions—which by their nature cannot be recreated—but on the material residues they left behind: magazines, advertisements, radio works, postcards, T-shirts, and other ephemera. A key artifact is a copy of Tom Marioni's 1975 magazine *Vision*, in which Asher glued two facing pages together, effectively making himself disappear between contributions by Doug Wheeler and Bruce Nauman. The show spans forty-five years of projects, presenting these objects as physical remainders of Asher's practice.

philadelphia art museum rebranding

The Philadelphia Museum of Art is reversing its controversial rebranding decision, abandoning the name "Philadelphia Art Museum" and the acronym "PhAM" after widespread backlash. The museum will retain its new griffin logo but restore the original name, Philadelphia Museum of Art, across all platforms. The rebrand, developed with Brooklyn design studio Gretel at a cost of $1 million, was rolled out less than four months ago but met with public mockery and internal turmoil. The reversal follows the firing of CEO Sasha Suda, who filed a lawsuit over her ouster, and the appointment of Daniel Weiss, former CEO of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, as her successor. Chief marketing officer Paul Dien also resigned amid the fallout. The board voted unanimously to undo the name change after a survey commissioned by an interdisciplinary task force.
