On May 2, 2025, arts and cultural organizations across the country received notifications that grants and funding promised by the National Endowment for the Arts were being rescinded. This was part of a larger initiative by the Trump Administration to dismantle not just the NEA, but also other arts advocacy programs including the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Institute for Museum and Library Services.

We want to make this the most comprehensive historical survey of Chinese art in the first quarter of the 21st century. That was the first exhibition to introduce Chinese experimental art to the international art world, right after the end of the Cold War.

"The term global majority resonated deeply with my own experience of living abroad. The sensation of being perceived as 'other' during my formative years shaped this mission."

Communities make museums and museums make communities. Part of the establishment of M+ was a public consultation where people were asked what kind of museums they wanted. The recommendation was not to build lots of little museums, but to create a big museum that was cross-disciplinary, unburdened by labels like "modern" or "contemporary". It was to be a museum plus more, and that was how we became M+.

Art Collaboration Kyoto will have a new leadership structure starting April 1: a seven-person committee, with each member is a director with a different focus, like gallery relations, VIP relations, or education. Yukako Yamashita, the fair's director since 2022, is stepping down this month to become chairperson of ACK Ambassadors, which the fair bills as 'an intimate, global network of established and next-generation collectors and cultural leaders.'

There are multiple clashes between our main characters, most notably Jen battling Shu Lien, and a famous sequence where Mu Bai pursues Jen across the treetops of a bamboo forest, deftly balancing on the swaying branches and easily evading Jen's increasingly undisciplined sword thrusts.

For a director so celebrated for his masterful urban crime thrillers, in which contemplations on brotherhood and fate are inextricable from violent cop-versus-crook setpieces, it's a surprise to discover that Johnnie To wasn't all that interested in making action films to begin with. "It was [producer] Tsui Hark's fault," To said of The Big Heat (1988), the first of his many films in that genre. "He told me to do it."

For Kleber Mendonça Filho, filmmaking is an act of both provocation and preservation. Mendonça was born in 1968, in the early years of a ruthless military dictatorship-a time when cinema, like much else, was harshly constrained. His mother, Joselice Jucá, was a historian who studied Brazil's abolitionist movement, and she taught him that filling gaps in the cultural memory was a way to expose concealed truths. In Mendonça's work, memory functions as a tool of defiance.
