Greta Thunberg and several members of the Extinction Rebellion environmental group turned Venice’s Grand Canal bright green on Monday to protest what they view as the world’s slow progress in transitioning away from fossil fuels.They dropped non-toxic fluorescein dye into the canal from boats, making it look like a radioactive, toxic soup. The stunt was one of series of protests at lakes, fountains, and waterways across 10 Italian cities in the wake of the recent United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30) in Brazil. Thunberg and her fellow activists also unfurled a banner reading “Stop Ecocide” from Venice’s Rialto Bridge to highlight “the massive effects of climate collapse.”Dressed in red...

Zorg (Yifan Jing) (b. 1998) is a London-based visual artist whose practice is grounded in field research. A graduate in illustration from Goldsmiths, University of London, he investigates the intersections of migration, cultural symbolism and collective memory. His work has been exhibited internationally – in New York, Paris, Tbilisi, Las Vegas, Shanghai and London – in shows that highlight his ongoing engagement with communities and the ways in which environments shape, and are shaped by, the people who inhabit them. A major work to highlight is Clover (2024). This intricately designed, multi-paned window sculpture is the result of long-term research in a diverse area of East London, home to communities...

What happens when we view the world from a different angle? What can we learn by stepping outside of our own perspective, and into someone else’s shoes? These five exhibitions encourage audiences to do just that. The shows consider how traditions of photography have built and perpetuated narratives that exclude and erase queer people of colour; reveal how social, religious and political belief systems shape the very fabric of our towns and cities; and consider how diasporic communities use language to connect with places they no longer inhabit. Elsewhere, Jeff Wall reckons with the major concerns of contemporary life, using large-scale, still lifes to draw attention to our most pressing problems. Similarly,...

Concept electric solo jetbike by LEO flight has no propellers
 
LEO Flight introduces the concept electric Solo JetBike, a hovering personal air vehicle for pilots without a license. Described as a one-person electric aircraft, it operates at low altitude and uses electric propulsion instead of propellers. The vehicle, which follows the still-concept LEO Coupe car-like aircraft, runs on what the team calls a proprietary electric-jet propulsion system, which uses multiple electric jets. They’re small and enclosed within the frame, as the company hopes this can eliminate propellers entirely.
 
The concept electric Solo JetBike by LEO Flight measures 6.5 feet by 6.5 feet, compact enough to fit in the...

Through large-scale tapestries of fringed strips of fabric, Abdoulaye Konaté explores the contemporary relevance of ancient signs and symbols. The Malian artist began working with textiles in the 1990s, when it became clear to him how prevalent they are in our everyday lives, from clothing and home goods to tools and more. This early interest began what’s become a research-driven artistic practice, and today, he layers long, stitched pieces of Bazin and Kente fabrics into dynamic, largely abstract works. Konaté and his team create each monumental tapestry entirely by hand, from the dyeing process to cutting and stitching. The final layout typically occurs on the studio floor after the artist sketches in...

Modular Residential Block Integrates Gardens into Its Form
 
Lisi Garden House by Architects of Invention is a seven-story residential building developed using a notionally modular framework in which all components, though not full volumetric modules, are fabricated offsite. This approach introduces an uncommon construction method in Georgia, where offsite production remains limited. The design references James Wines’ ‘Highrise of Homes’ and Brodsky & Utkin’s ‘Columbarium Habitable,’ adopting the idea of stacked houses with integrated gardens. Living room modules alternate between oval and rectangular geometries, generating a vertical rhythm across the gridded facade. As an adaptation of Wines’...

Photography has a unique capacity to make the invisible visible, and to illuminate truths about the world and ourselves that often go unnoticed. It documents reality whilst simultaneously interpreting it, acting as both witness and storyteller. The 2025 Royal Photographic Society Awards, the world’s longest-running photography prize, celebrated this power, recognising photographers whose work challenges boundaries and transforms how we see. From experimental landscapes to socially engaged portraiture, the winners demonstrate the breadth of contemporary photography and its capacity to engage, provoke and inspire. At the forefront is Susan Derges, awarded the RPS Centenary Medal for her outstanding...

In the final film of our MPB: The Next Shot series, cinematographer and director Theo Tennant reflects on the pivotal role of his first professional camera, a Blackmagic URSA, in shaping his BAFTA Cymru-winning documentary Frontier Town. The camera became more than a tool; it was a companion that granted access to a close-knit, community and, in turn, gave Theo the confidence to step into his identity as a filmmaker. His story explores the relationship between artist and equipment: what it means to outgrow the tools that once defined you, the liberation of passing them on and how changing gear mirrors creative evolution.  A: If you’ve ever sold your kit, what did you sell and why?  TT: I’ve sold various...

It's a weird time to be grateful. Over the past year, President Trump rolled back protections for Native lands and sovereignty while attempting to erase entire chapters from American history; namely, the ones where White people commit unspeakable injustices. As we recoil at the return of monuments honoring figures better left forgotten, we find solace in the members of our art community who, against all odds, are trying to do the right thing. This Thanksgiving, we're celebrating 25 things that bring us joy, great and small: gorgeous sculptures by Jeffrey Gibson at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, long-awaited repatriations, no-strings-attached grants for artists, gallery dogs, and more. —Valentina...

For the past three days, Los Angeles–based artist Brittany Fanning has posted the same picture to her Instagram grid. It shows two grinning men in double-breasted suits, complete with pocket squares. In her caption, she identifies them as brothers Jackson Navin and Matthew Navin, of London-based gallery Pictorum Art Group. In a separate posting, Fanning says that she is still owed money from the gallery related to a group show she participated in three years ago.  During the course of her campaign, Fanning said she learned that other artists are claiming to be in a similar situation and have also not received payment from Pictorum. One of these artists, Finn Johnson, received a court judgment ordering...

“I’ve always been fascinated by the idea that our perceived reality is shaped by our minds and reflecting our inner world,” says artist Michelle Blancke, whose ethereal photographs of trees, glens, and foliage invite us into a familiar yet uncanny world. Her lens-based practice explores themes of interdependence, consciousness, and concealment, especially through the subject of nature. Blancke’s vivid Secret Garden series comprises a total of five sub-categories: Realm, Ascent, Essence, Veins, and Origin. Whether capturing the waxy surface of an intricately veined leaf or the way vines create shadowy veils over gnarled trees, she’s interested in relationships between “transformation, mysticism, and...

In 2024, while Timo Fahler was out for a run in Los Angeles, he came across a discarded bedspring. It lingered in his studio for months until one day, its thirteen rows of springs revealed themselves as the red and white stripes of the American flag. It also turned out to be the last work he made in the U.S. before he and his family relocated to The Netherlands. Fahler’s slouched “flag” is one of a number of recent stained glass sculptures on view in his solo exhibition Terminal Classic at Sebastian Gladstone that reference major changes in the artist’s personal life and the U.S.’s tumultuous socio-political climate. Time becomes slippery as he taps into imagery that is both contemporary and ancient....

Presented by PhotoIreland, the exhibition marks her return to the city a decade after the Irish premiere of The Afronauts. The series merges documentary photography with constructed imagery and archival material to create narratives that are at once political, poetic and conceptually playful. Rather than presenting migration solely as a crisis, De Middel reframes it as a journey of courage, endurance and imagination. Her approach encourages viewers to rethink the stories often circulated by media and...
