Artist Marcos Kueh presents his solo exhibition 'Smooth Sailing' at ESEA Contemporary in Manchester. The show features new sculptures, tapestries, and a large-scale installation that reflect on the histories of Chinese labour and migration, particularly to northwest England, drawing inspiration from 19th-century trade union banners found in Manchester's People's History Museum.
The Bowdoin College Museum of Art (BCMA) has announced a major exhibition and long-term loan partnership with the Wyvern Collection, a prestigious London-based private collection of medieval art. The first exhibition, "Medieval Art from the Wyvern Collection: Global Networks and Creative Connections," will open this fall, featuring more than 57 artworks on long-term loan combined with objects from BCMA's own holdings. The show highlights cross-cultural connections across a vast geographic range—from Japan to Mexico, northern Europe to Africa—challenging traditional Eurocentric views of the Middle Ages.
