"Dispossessions in the Americas" Confronts the Colonialism That Invades All Territory

The article reviews "Dispossessions in the Americas," a group exhibition at Wrightwood 659 in Chicago curated by Jonathan D. Katz and Eduardo Carrera. Featuring works from 1960 to 2025, the show examines colonial legacies in the Americas, focusing on the forced dispossession of land, culture, and language from indigenous, Afro-descendant, queer, and trans communities. The review critically questions how a polished, architecturally prestigious venue can coherently display art about socially voiceless communities without falling into voyeurism or fetishization of pain.

Venice Biennale opens under shadow of protests over Russia and Israel

The 61st Venice Biennale opened under heavy protest as Russia returns to the event for the first time since its 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Ukrainian feminist collective Femen and Russian punk band Pussy Riot demonstrated outside the Russian pavilion, with activists accusing Russia of using art as a weapon in a hybrid war. Meanwhile, pro-Palestinian protesters gathered outside Israel's pavilion, holding banners reading 'No artwashing genocide' and demanding Israel's exclusion over the war in Gaza. The Biennale's international jury resigned last month, refusing to award prizes to countries led by figures subject to ICC arrest warrants, namely Vladimir Putin and Benjamin Netanyahu. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas called Russia's participation 'morally wrong' and threatened to cut €2 million in funding, while culture ministers from 22 European countries urged organizers to reconsider.

L’artista multidisciplinare Francesco Impellizeri protagonista di un nuovo appuntamento de I Martedì Critici. Il video

Francesco Impellizeri, a multidisciplinary artist born in Trapani in 1958, is the subject of the third seasonal appointment of "I Martedì Critici," a series of meetings curated by Alberto Dambruoso and Loredana Rea. The article explores Impellizeri's career, which began in the mid-1980s and blends painting, music, photography, and performance into a distinctive, eccentric language. His work often uses paradox and sarcasm to critique contemporary stereotypes, as seen in performances like "Desfilè: mannequin per nient" and his series of "Pensierini"—childlike notebook pages that address political and social themes. His exhibitions span from the Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa in Venice to the Museo Reina Sofía in Madrid and the Museo del Barrio in New York.
