new regulation around eu import law promises art market shakeup

A new European Union regulation, Regulation (EU) 2019/880, will take effect on June 28, requiring thorough provenance documentation for cultural objects over 200 years old (or 250 for archaeological items) imported into the EU. Importers must provide material evidence proving lawful acquisition from the country of origin, including the object's origin, export date, and chain of ownership, or face potential seizure. The rule builds on a 2019 anti-trafficking law and has sparked concern among EU-based dealers, who warn it could stifle the market for antiquities and non-European art.

Antisemitic art may upset British Jews, but is it illegal? - analysis

British artist and critic Matthew Collings has sparked intense legal and ethical debate with his exhibition "Drawings Against Genocide" at Joseph Wales Studios in Margate. The show features graphic imagery, including depictions of Jewish figures consuming infants and denials of sexual violence committed on October 7, 2023.

‘Proof that life goes on’: meet some of the people working to rescue—and re-energise—Ukrainian culture

Ukrainian cultural institutions and artists are actively restoring and creating art despite ongoing Russian attacks targeting the country's cultural identity. The Nahirna 22 arts collective in Kyiv, which runs 30 artist studios, was hit by air strikes in August that killed at least 23 people, damaging studios and forcing relocations. Meanwhile, the Mykhailo Boychuk State Academy of Decorative Applied Arts and Design in Kyiv, named after a Modernist executed in 1937, was struck by a Russian missile in 2024. Contractors in July 2025 recovered surviving works from the academy's archives, including paintings, textiles, ceramics, and student pieces, with support from UNESCO, the Japanese government, and Ukraine's culture ministry. A new conservation training program and exhibitions like Body/Fragility demonstrate ongoing cultural resilience.

Hundreds at London’s British Library go on strike, as Tate workers consider action

Around 300 workers at the British Library in London have gone on strike from 27 October to 9 November over a pay dispute, organized by the Public and Commercial Services union (PCS). The strike threatens to disrupt the opening of the major exhibition "Secret Maps" (until 18 January 2026). Meanwhile, more than 100 PCS members across Tate's four sites are being balloted for possible strike action, with a postal ballot closing on 11 November.

Matthew Hills, executive director of the Thunder Bay Art Gallery, gave local media a tour of the partially-completed facility on the city's north-side waterfront, confirming the opening has been delayed from 2025 to 2027. Inflation, supply-chain issues, and trade wars have driven the project cost to $74.7 million, with a $22.6 million funding shortfall. City council recently released $5 million to prevent a construction shutdown, and Hills said a phased opening in 2026 is under consideration. Current funding includes $37 million from the federal Canada Cultural Spaces Fund, $5.7 million from Ontario, $5.2 million from the city, and $4.9 million in private donations.
