The Longview Museum of Fine Arts in Texas has opened a new exhibition titled "Native Perspectives: America 250" in celebration of the United States' 250th anniversary.

Executive Director Tiffany Jehorek notes that the exhibit incorporates personal histories, such as ledger entries tied to artist Mabel Carr's mother, and aims to highlight Indigenous legends like Bigfoot and werewolves that predate European settlement. The exhibition runs through September 12 and includes related events such as a panel discussion, curatorial remarks, and a Caddo pottery workshop led by artist and co-curator Chase Kahwinhut Earles.

With sanctions on Iranian art, buyers are turning to India

The article reports a significant shift in the Islamic art market, where traditional Persianate works from Iran are declining in sales and value, while art from India and historic Arab polities is rising. At Sotheby's April 2025 sale, 14 of 27 Persian works went unsold, continuing a long-term slump. Key factors include U.S. sanctions on Iran that restrict export of Iranian-origin works, aging collectors, maturing museums, and a generational shift away from classical art toward contemporary pieces. In contrast, Mughal art from India is experiencing a steady price increase, reflecting the repositioning of the market away from Persianate mainstays.
