A Venice Biennale in Protest

Hundreds of protesters, led by the Art Not Genocide Alliance, blocked the entrance to the Israeli pavilion at the Venice Biennale on May 6, waving Palestinian flags and accusing Israel of operating a "genocide pavilion." Activists from Pussy Riot and FEMEN also staged a pink smoke-filled protest against Russia's participation. Meanwhile, the Biennale jury suddenly resigned, and Israeli pavilion artist Belu-Simion Fainaru made legal threats against the Biennale alleging antisemitism and discrimination. The article also covers exhibitions in Upstate New York, a tribute to Beat Generation icon Jack Kerouac, and obituaries for performance art champion Steven Durland, artist Georg Baselitz, cartoonist Nicole Hollander, and arts patron Doris Fisher.

Shoot the Shit With Jack Kerouac

An exhibition at the Grolier Club in New York City, titled "Running Through Heaven: Visions of Jack Kerouac," presents over 60 pieces of ephemera and unpublished correspondence from the Beat Generation icon's life. Curated by antiquarian collector Jacob Loewentheil, the show includes first editions, a Buddhist mala, a tobacco pouch, and a signed 1964 portrait of Kerouac, organized thematically around religion, jazz, and family. The exhibition runs through May 16 and offers an intimate look at the man behind the myth.
