The Week in ArtCensorship and Australia’s Venice Biennale pavilion, a controversial AI auction, and Elizabeth Catlett in WashingtonIt seems absurd that more than a year ahead of the next Venice Biennale, one of the major pavilions in the Giardini might be empty for next year’s event. But that is the dilemma facing Creative Australia, which is responsible for that country’s Biennale presentation. Last month, it announced the team comprising the Lebanese-born Sydney-based artist Khaled Sabsabi and the curator Michael Dagostino as its selection for the 2026 event—and then, within days, rescinded the invitation. An almighty row has engulfed the Australian art world to the extent that the pavilion has been thrown into doubt. So what h...

Jelle van Baardewijk in gesprek met historicus Diedert de Wagt en caberetier en activist George van Houts, over het boek 'Bij gebrek aan beter. De andere kant van het verhaal'.
Diedert de Wagt schreef een onthutsend boek. Op aandringen van Van Houts las Jelle het: "Ik ben heel erg geschrokken". In dit gesprek een tipje van de sluier. Over de 'redding' van Griekenland, dubbele agenda's, inside jobs en NGO's als de CIA met een 'menselijk' gezicht.

Adelaide Writers' WeekAWW22 Empire of Pain - Patrick Radden KeefeChaired by Ben Brooker.Patrick Radden Keefe’s remarkable Say Nothing documented the Troubles in Northern Ireland and was named by The New York Times as one of the best books of 2019. His follow up is Empire of Pain, an equally powerful account of the opioid crisis gripping America and the family that created it and continues to profit from it. Patrick meticulously chronicles the rise of the Sackler family, whose company invented the highly addictive OxyContin, and damns a country too cowed by money to protect its own citizens.
