The Turner Prize Has Revealed Its 2026 Nominees—and Already Courted Controversy

The Turner Prize has announced its 2026 nominees: Simon Barclay, Kira Freije, Marguerite Humeau, and Tanoa Sasraku. The award, administered by Tate Britain, includes a £25,000 prize for the winner. For the first time, the nominees' exhibition will be held at Teesside University's Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art, an academic setting. The selection has already drawn criticism for being tame and safe, with Guardian critic Eddy Frankel describing the prize as "timid" and "fearful."

The New York Botanical Garden's 34th annual "Holiday Train Show" features miniature replicas of New York landmarks crafted from natural materials by the botanical artists of Applied Imagination. This year's edition adds two new models: the recently renovated Delacorte Theater in Central Park and the Whitney Museum of American Art's Meatpacking District flagship, designed by Renzo Piano. The Whitney replica, built over three months by artist Ava Roberts and fabrication director Kaitlin Schmidt, uses a new two-way mirrored acrylic glass technique for the windows and incorporates materials like purple smoke bush branches, horse chestnut bark, and fallen Zelkova bark. The company, founded by Paul Busse in 1991 and now run by his daughter Laura Busse Dolan, creates whimsical versions of landmarks using leaves, sticks, fungi, and other dried plant materials.
