Smithsonian’s National Museum of Asian Art returns three sculptures to Cambodia

The Smithsonian’s National Museum of Asian Art (NMAA) in Washington, DC, has voluntarily returned three sculptures to the Cambodian government after an internal provenance investigation determined the objects were likely removed from Cambodia during the country’s civil war (1967-75). The returned artifacts include a tenth-century sandstone head of Harihara, a tenth-century sandstone sculpture of the goddess Uma, and a bronze statue of Prajnaparamita from around 1200. The museum’s director, Chase F. Robinson, stated that strong evidence linked the pieces to problematic dealers and a context of war and violence, and that no documentation supported their lawful export. The objects were donated to the NMAA by Arthur M. Sackler and Gilbert and Ann Kinney without proper provenance papers.

How ‘archaeological ceramicist’ Yasmin Smith has forever changed the way I look at flint

Yasmin Smith, an Australian artist described as an 'archaeological ceramicist,' presents her solo exhibition *Elemental Life* at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA) in Sydney, running until June 8. The show features sculptural installations that use ceramics and glaze technologies to decode environmental and human histories. Key works include *Seine River Basin (2019)*, commissioned by the Centre Pompidou, which uses ash-glazed stoneware replicas of tree branches to reflect the chemical history of the River Seine, and *Chicxulub (2025)*, which draws on samples from the asteroid impact crater in Mexico to explore mass extinction. Smith’s practice involves extensive field research and collaboration with ecologists, archaeologists, and local communities, creating site-specific glazes that act as chemical records of place and time.

Netherlands will return stolen ancient statue—featured at Tefaf art fair in 2022—to Egypt

The Netherlands will return a 3,500-year-old stolen Ancient Egyptian statue to Egypt after it was spotted at the Tefaf Maastricht art fair in 2022 by an eagle-eyed visitor. The stone statue, believed to depict a high official from the dynasty of Pharaoh Thutmose III, was flagged via an anonymous tip, leading the dealer to voluntarily surrender it. An investigation by Dutch police and the Information and Heritage Inspectorate confirmed it was likely plundered unlawfully and illegally exported. The statue will be handed to the Egyptian ambassador in The Hague later this year, in line with the 1970 Unesco convention against trafficking cultural property.

Sámi art has gained visibility in Norway—but when will it get a museum of its own?

Sámi artists from Norway are gaining international recognition, with milestones including the rebranding of the Nordic Pavilion as the Sámi Pavilion at the 2022 Venice Biennale, a major mural by Outi Pieski in Oslo, and a forthcoming Hyundai commission by Maret Anne Sara at Tate Modern. Despite this visibility, decades of advocacy have failed to establish a dedicated Sámi art museum; thousands of works purchased with government funds remain in storage. The Norwegian parliament's recent truth and reconciliation report acknowledged historical injustices, but activists like Synnøve Persen and scholars like Katrine Rugeldal argue that existing institutions are insufficient and that a museum must be built on Sámi terms, potentially nomadic or pan-Nordic.
