The Congolese Plantation Workers Art League (CATPC), an artist collective based at a plantation in the Democratic Republic of Congo, has released a toolkit titled "Seven Easy Steps for Museums to Liberate the Plantations that Funded Them."

art basel swimming rhine river

Art Basel in Switzerland has a unique ritual: many attendees swim in the Rhine River, which flows through Basel. Participants use waterproof bags (often the fish-shaped Wickelfisch brand) to store clothes and belongings, then float downstream from the Museum Tinguely past the Trois Rois hotel. The practice is embraced by dealers, advisers, artists, and art handlers alike, with some describing it as a rejuvenating escape from the fair's intensity. However, not everyone is a fan—gallerist David Nolan calls the river "dirty, dangerous, deeply infested with microplastics," and some attendees avoid it due to concerns about pollution or safety.

Gerhard Richter ‘Candle’ From Estate of Revered Dealer Marian Goodman Falls Short of a Record at $35.1 M.

A Gerhard Richter painting, *Kerze (Candle)* (1982), from the estate of the late dealer Marian Goodman sold at Christie’s on Wednesday evening for $35.1 million (with fees), falling short of the artist’s $46.3 million record set over a decade ago. The lot, estimated at $35–$50 million, was guaranteed by a third party and drew a hammer price of $30 million after less than two minutes of subdued bidding. Goodman, who represented Richter for decades until he left for David Zwirner in 2022, had purchased the work directly from the artist in 1989 and held it for nearly 40 years.
