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.

Framing Van Gogh: why the artist did not want to surround his works with gold

London's National Gallery exhibition "Van Gogh: Poets & Lovers" displayed nearly all of its loaned paintings in ornate gilded frames, despite the artist's documented preference for simple, unadorned wooden frames. Van Gogh wrote to his sister Wil questioning the need for gilding, and Paul Gachet Jr., son of the doctor who cared for the artist, called gold frames around Van Gogh's works "an act of moral barbarism." A few exceptions stood out, including six paintings from the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterlo, which were shown in replica frames based on early 20th-century designs by Jacob van den Bosch, and a Van Gogh from Tokyo's National Museum of Western Art that was reframed in a replica of a frame once owned by Dr. Paul Gachet.

Swiss mega gallery tied to Laurene Powell Jobs to open in Palo Alto near her offices
