Beijing exhibition exploring Xinjiang heritage accused of ‘slipping into cultural appropriation and misrepresentation’

A group of artists, curators, and gallerists from Xinjiang, operating anonymously as the collective Yixak, have publicly criticized the Beijing exhibition "Greetings" held at the Maca Art Center from March to June 2025. The show, featuring works by Han Chinese artist Dan Er, focused on her travels through Xinjiang and its heritage arts. Yixak accuses the exhibition of cultural appropriation, misrepresentation, and reinforcing ethnic stereotypes, including conflating distinct ethnic cultures, stripping traditional Adras textile patterns of context, and mislabeling Xinjiang traditions. The collective also claims the show failed to credit local collaborators and excluded Xinjiang communities. Both Dan Er and Maca declined to comment, citing "irresistible factors."

Space as Practice. A Decade of WL4 Art Space.

WL4 Art Space in Gdańsk, Poland, celebrates its tenth anniversary. Founded in 2015 when a group of artists took over a former bakery at Wiosny Ludów 4, the space has evolved from a practical need for studios into a self-organized, grassroots collective. Operating in a raw industrial building that once housed a giant steam bread oven, WL4 resists traditional display protocols, treating the site as a collaborator rather than a neutral container. Co-founder Adriana Majdzińska recalls the early euphoria as artists quickly filled the studios, building and adapting spaces while maintaining a simple rule: you had to be actively creating.

Easthampton artists, priced out of studio building, exhibit new work and defiance

A group of about 40 artists from Easthampton, Massachusetts, have mounted a new exhibition titled “Cottage Street Studios, Past and Present” at Easthampton City Arts, nearly a year after rising rents forced many of them out of their longtime studio building at One Cottage Street. The former factory, owned by nonprofit Riverside Industries, had housed a mix of painters, potters, and woodworkers for half a century, but a management change led to rent increases that doubled some tenants’ costs, prompting roughly half of the 80 artists to leave. Fiber artist Andrea Zax organized the show as a defiant act of community reconnection, while artists like Piper Foreso and Matthew Simons described the scattering as devastating to their creative ecosystem.
