Haegue Yang’s Meditations on Exile

Haegue Yang's exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, uses Venetian blinds to explore themes of exile, division, and asymmetry, as reviewed by Alex Paik. The article also covers a separate exhibition at The Huntington Library juxtaposing the personal effects of Charlotte Brontë and Octavia E. Butler, a controversy over AI-colorized Ansel Adams photos sold by gallerist James Danziger, a statue of a Revolutionary War officer who enslaved people installed at Freedom Plaza, and the death of Miami graffiti legend Eric Alan Hirt (Eson).

Ansel Adams Trust Decries Dealer's Sale of Photo Colorized Using AI

The Ansel Adams Publishing Rights Trust has publicly condemned New York gallerist Peter Danziger for selling AI-colorized editions of Adams's iconic photograph "Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico" (1941) at the AIPAD Photography Show in April. Danziger displayed the AI-generated image at his booth with a wall text disclosing the prompt used, and offered prints in editions of 10 at three sizes. The Trust stated it was not notified in advance and accused Danziger of exploiting Adams's name and reputation for commercial gain. Danziger defended his actions, arguing the original image is in the public domain and that his work is transformative, though he apologized for not notifying the Trust.
