From objects to systems...Rethinking conceptual and digital art in the art market: Ashley Lee Wong's research bridges theory and practice to explore ways of thinking and engaging in contemporary cultural economies for artists and practitioners working at the intersections of art and technology.

The Autry's newest exhibition Creative Continuities: Family, Pride, and Community in Native Art opens on November 15. The creation of Native American works involves a deep understanding of cultural protocols, histories, and traditions. Featuring selected works from the Autry’s Native American collections, Creative Continuities: Family, Pride, and Community in Native Art explores the meanings embedded in three aspects of Native culture: Knowing, Create, and Transference. Three contemporary Plains Indian artists—John Pepion (Blackfeet), Brocade Stops Black Eagle (Crow), and Jessa Rae Growing Thunder (Dakota/Nakoda)―reflect upon their relationships with works created by their Ancestors. The three Native culture bearers have each curated a section of the exhibition, framing works that originated within their respective communities behind one of the three concepts at the heart of the exhibition. Through this unique combination of cultural objects and stories, Creative Continuities aims to educate visitors about the diversity of Native American culture, history, and tradition that crosses tribal boundaries, past and present. https://lnkd.in/gsCkf2jq

As the art-fair calendar expands — from London to Paris and beyond — the pace of the global art world continues to accelerate, as well as a sort of pressure on galleries, artists and collectors. In an ecosystem that thrives on connection and momentum, this abundance of events invites reflection: how can the art world balance growth with sustainability, and visibility with meaning? Our latest article explores how this saturation shapes strategy, value, visibility and the future of the contemporary art ecosystem, from logistics and budgets to curatorial focus and audience engagement.

KC Studio Arts Brief by Pete Dulin – The Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art has acquired “shadows spell my name” by #LosAngelesartist Diedrick Brackens. The richly layered work of visual storytelling is now on view in the museum’s permanent collection galleries. Brackens used hand-dyed cotton and acrylic yarn to create four silhouetted and interconnected figures holding lanterns in a multicolored watery landscape. Cotton’s brutal history is symbolically and literally woven into the narrative, alluding to labor, migration and identity. Read more at https://lnkd.in/g5wtGjGd #fiberart #artmuseum #contemporaryart

Nature, Time and Money - a very thought provoking article by Dean Spears "If there is one thing I have learned over the past few years, it is that time is the most precious thing we can give and ask for. Money matters, of course, it pays for the surveys, the projects, the staff and the science, but time is what allows nature to breathe, people to connect, and ideas to take root." It might be worth taking this insight into other areas: museums and arts organisations, perhaps. https://lnkd.in/e8YxbSHJ
