Dartmouth Students Renew Calls to Remove Leon Black’s Name From Arts Center

Students at Dartmouth College have intensified their campaign to remove billionaire collector Leon Black’s name from the school’s visual arts center. The renewed push follows the release of Department of Justice files detailing Black’s extensive financial ties to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, including $170 million in payments for tax and estate advice. While Black has denied all allegations of misconduct and his legal team maintains he was unaware of Epstein’s criminal activities, student leaders are citing the college's recent decision to strip César Chávez’s name from a fellowship as a precedent for moral accountability.

Kent Monkman at Akron Art Museum: Reimagining North American landscapes

Indigenous Canadian painter Kent Monkman, a member of the Fisher River Cree Nation, presents his exhibition "Kent Monkman: History is Painted by the Victors" at the Akron Art Museum, on view through August 16. The show features over 30 large-scale paintings that mimic 19th-century landscape works by settler artists like Albert Bierstadt and Frederic Edwin Church, but inserts Indigenous figures who were historically romanticized, stereotyped, or omitted. Monkman uses his two-spirit alter ego Miss Chief Eagle Testickle to challenge colonial narratives and reverse the artistic gaze. The exhibition was organized by the Denver Art Museum and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, with co-curators John Lukavic and Léuli Eshrāghi.

Art Notes: Hood Museum's exhibitions reflect on America's 250 years

The Hood Museum of Art in Hanover, New Hampshire, has mounted a dozen exhibitions drawn entirely from its own collection to mark the 250th anniversary of American independence. Curators began planning in 2022, opting for a series of smaller, collaborative shows rather than a single large exhibition. Highlights include "Always Already: Abstraction in the United States," featuring works by Frank Stella and Nampeyo; "American Pop," with Ed Ruscha's "Standard Station, Amarillo, Texas" and Jaune Quick-to-See Smith's "The Rancher"; and "Art Histories/Art Futures," which pairs May Stevens' "Big Daddy Paper Doll" with Michael Naranjo's "He's my brother." The exhibitions reflect the museum's ongoing effort to include art and artists historically left out of the art-historical canon.
