As censorship rises, is there a future for truly political, truth-telling art?

The article examines the growing threat of censorship in the visual arts, focusing on two key incidents. In the US, the Trump administration pressured the Smithsonian Institution to review its holdings for content that contradicts "American exceptionalism," leading artist Amy Sherald to withdraw her entire solo exhibition from the National Portrait Gallery after the museum considered removing her painting *Trans Forming Liberty* (2024), which depicts a transgender person as the Statue of Liberty. Meanwhile, in France, Dutch street artist Judith de Leeuw unveiled a monumental mural in Roubaix showing the Statue of Liberty covering its eyes in shame, protesting global migrant injustice, which went viral online.

Van Gogh’s ‘Postman’, and the very chair seen in the painting, go on show in a revelatory Amsterdam exhibition

The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam has opened "Van Gogh and the Roulins: Together Again at Last," the first comprehensive exhibition dedicated to Vincent van Gogh's portraits of postman Joseph Roulin and his family. The show, which runs until January 11, 2026, features the artist's first portrait of Roulin on loan from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, alongside the very wicker armchair on which Roulin posed in 1888. The chair, originally bought by Van Gogh for his Yellow House in Arles, was acquired by the museum in 1969 and is exhibited for the first time since then. The exhibition previously drew 280,000 visitors in Boston.

Twelve of these portraits are on display for the first time.

Revealed: how Van Gogh's nephew exchanged two of the artist's drawings for butter and bacon

In early 1945, during the Dutch 'Hunger Winter' at the end of World War II, Vincent van Gogh's nephew, Vincent Willem van Gogh, exchanged two of the artist's drawings for 35 packets of butter and some bacon. The swap was arranged with the help of artist Charley Toorop and involved the cheese business Visser Kaas in Heiloo. One of the drawings, *Head of a Peasant Woman, left profile* (December 1884–May 1885), is now being offered at Sotheby's on 25 June with an estimate of £400,000–£600,000, suggesting the pair would be worth around £1 million today. The nephew's family was suffering from starvation and tragedy, including the execution of his eldest son by German forces.

Works by Charley Toorop, one of the first female painters to admire Van Gogh, go on show in the Netherlands

An exhibition titled "Charley Toorop: Love for Van Gogh" opens at the Kröller-Müller Museum in the Netherlands (24 May-14 September), showcasing 60 works by Charley Toorop (1891-1955), one of the first female painters deeply influenced by Vincent van Gogh. The show, curated by Renske Tervaert, draws on the museum's extensive Toorop and Van Gogh collections, supplemented with loans, and highlights how Van Gogh's work shaped Toorop's art, particularly in the early 1920s. A key focus is her 1924 portraits of patients at the Willem Arntsz Medical Asylum for the Insane in Utrecht, where she painted three powerful works after a traumatic marriage to Henk Fernhout, who had been institutionalized there. The exhibition also explores personal connections: Van Gogh's brother Theo was treated and died at the same facility, and Toorop's still lifes echo Van Gogh's motifs, such as her use of knives alluding to domestic strife.

mcny tyger shipwreck research 2740893

The Museum of the City of New York (MCNY) is launching a new research project to re-examine a 17th-century shipwreck discovered during a 1916 subway dig in Lower Manhattan. The wreck, long believed to be the Dutch ship *Tyger*—one of the earliest European vessels to anchor in New York Harbor—was excavated by subway foreman James A. Kelly and later donated to MCNY in the 1940s. In partnership with the Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands (RCE), the museum will apply advanced scientific techniques, including dendrochronology and wood species analysis, to the ship's timbers to confirm their origins and better understand the vessel's history.
