I learnt abt 'rematriation' while writing @TheNewEuropean on #Sami artist #OutiPieski, who I was lucky enough to meet @Tate St Ives. Rather a subtle beautiful word describing nurturing the connections/histories lost when indigenous cultures are attackd #InternationalWomensDay2024

I love #Pasquarosa, said in 1929 to have been the first Italian woman to have a solo show in London - even de Chirico thought she was great. The perfect antidote to a slightly gloomy London day @Estorick / vicariously @TheNewEuropean (why not both) theneweuropean.co.uk/pasquarosa-the…

On the day the great Benjamin Zephaniah dies, this poem of his seems more relevant than ever. It's called "The British". #RIP
Possibly the best thing about #RubensAndWomen @DulwichGallery is that you can get close enough to see exactly how with a magician's touch, he illuminates eyes and skin with tiny beads of colour
The big argument people keep repeating for keeping the Elgin marbles at the British Museum is that they are safer here. No they are not! Here’s a short film I made a few years ago. Genuinely shocking. m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfmRjV…
