Working as an Artist in Hong Kong (Michelle Fung)

Michelle Fung reflects on the realities of working as an artist in Hong Kong, dispelling the romantic myth of the bohemian artist. She describes the city's high cost of living, lack of affordable studio space, and the need for artists to take on multiple jobs—from teaching to selling secondhand handbags—to survive. Fung notes that while Hong Kong offers a vibrant art scene with over 70 galleries and a dozen museums, most artists cannot rely on gallery sales alone. She also critiques the Hong Kong Arts Development Council's grant system, which covers project expenses but provides minimal artist fees, contrasting it with more generous systems in Canada and the Netherlands.

The Myth of the “Emerging” Black Artist: Ageism and Access in the Art World

The article, written by Chenoa Baker, critiques the art world's labeling system that categorizes artists as emerging, mid-career, or established. It argues that these labels are particularly harmful to Black artists, who are often kept in the "emerging" category for years despite significant achievements, collections, and decades of practice. The piece highlights the cases of Cheryl Miller, a self-taught analog photographer whose work is held by major institutions yet who had to "re-emerge" after relocating, and Ifé Franklin, a queer Black artist whose career was sidelined by systemic erasure and who is now being honored as an "elder" artist. The article connects these labels to ageism, lack of access to elite schools and galleries, and the undervaluing of self-taught artists and those working outside traditional art centers.

Treviño, who is represented by Erin Cluley Gallery in Dallas, adapts Mayan and Mexíca symbology in his multimedia work, which often incorporates vibrant colors, queer sensibilities, and restorative storytelling. His exhibition record includes shows at the Wadsworth Athenaeum, the Baltimore Museum of Art, and a 2024 career survey at The Wellin Museum of Art.

How Former Fashion Designer Emma Safir Turns Fabric into Beguiling Paintings

Emma Safir, a former fashion designer and printmaker, creates beguiling paintings and tapestries that blend textiles, digital printing, and traditional embroidery techniques. Her works, such as "APRICOT SILK" (2025) and "BABY DARLING" (2025), use smocking, glass beads, and shells to produce organic, jewel-toned surfaces that resist easy reflection or entry, challenging viewers to engage with layered material hierarchies.

For Carly Glovinski, Art and Gardening Grow Side by Side

Maine artist Carly Glovinski has opened "Into the Garden," her third solo exhibition with New York's Morgan Lehman Gallery. The show explores gardening as a parallel practice to art-making, inspired by her residency at Surf Point in southern Maine, where she discovered the overgrown grounds of Wild Knoll, the former home of author May Sarton. Glovinski planted a community garden there, the Wild Knoll Foundation Garden, and the experience led her to return to painting after a two-decade hiatus, creating acrylic works that express the experience of gardening rather than traditional landscapes.

The U.S. Supreme Court has struck down a series of sweeping tariffs imposed by the Trump administration, ruling in a 6-3 decision that the executive branch exceeded its authority. Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the majority, stated that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not grant the president the power to unilaterally impose tariffs of unlimited scope and duration. While tariffs on steel and aluminum remain, the ruling removes the 10 percent global blanket tariff and the 25 percent reciprocal tariffs previously levied against Canada, China, and Mexico.
