guggenheim bilbao urdaibai expansion scrapped 1234767429

The Guggenheim Bilbao has scrapped plans for a €100 million satellite expansion in Spain's protected Urdaibai biosphere reserve after nearly two decades of legal challenges and local opposition. The museum's board of trustees, including the Basque regional government and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, voted to halt the project due to insufficient public support and scientific objections. The two-site expansion would have placed cultural facilities in Gernika and Murueta, but environmental groups argued that up to 140,000 annual visitors would damage wetlands crucial for migratory birds.

How a tiny Arizona town became home to a national queer arts exhibition

A small Arizona town of 1,500 residents, Tubac, is home to Bruce Baughman Studio & Gallery, an LGBTQ+-owned business run by life partners Bruce Baughman and Bill Davis. For three years (2021-2023), the gallery partnered with the Tubac Center of the Arts to host "Proud to Be Seen," a national juried exhibition of works by LGBTQ+ artists and allies. Despite backlash from some community members and the local Chamber of Commerce, the exhibition succeeded and became a local standout. Baughman, known for his reverse painting technique and bold acrylic works, has operated the gallery since 2001 after previously running a space in Saugatuck, Michigan.
