Welcome Home: A Pop-up Art Exhibition

A pop-up art exhibition in Philadelphia explores the dismantling of Isaiah Zagar's public mural *Skin of the Bride* (c. 1990-2001), a ceramic-and-tile mosaic originally housed in a community arts center. The building was sold in 2017, purchased by a real estate developer in 2023, and despite efforts to protect the mural as a historic site, it is slated for demolition. The Magic Gardens team selectively removed certain tiles, including Mexican folk art, while leaving others behind, altering the artwork's visual integrity. The exhibition presents fragments of Zagar's work alongside a video installation and a multimedia piece reflecting on memory and placemaking.

Unesco raises ‘grave concerns’ for Kyiv's Saint Sophia Cathedral after Russian drone strike

Unesco has raised grave concerns for Kyiv's 11th-century Saint Sophia Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage site, after its facade was damaged by a Russian drone strike on Tuesday. Ukraine's culture minister Mykola Tochytskyi reported that the plastered cornice of the central apse was hit, and while the interior survived intact, vibration from explosions threatens the monument's structural integrity. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the attack, and UNESCO officials have visited to assess damage and discuss emergency conservation. The cathedral, known for its mosaics and frescoes, was added to UNESCO's List of World Heritage in Danger in 2023.
