The latest and most famous example of a toilet becoming an art piece, America by the Italian conceptual artist Maurizio Cattelan, was stolen in 2019 from its designated place in Blenheim Palace in the UK. The case remained cold until very recently, with the Crown Prosecution Service announcing they finally charged four suspects with theft of the golden toilet.

The Museum of Modern Art in New York hosts a huge lineup of exhibitions of talented American artists, but some of them stand out from the crowd and offer a breathtaking visitor experience.

Here are a few highlights that visitors of ACK in Kyoto have noted among their impressions.

A bit more than one month is left until the moment when all art connoisseurs will flock to the Miami Beach Convention Center for the long-awaited event – Art Basel Miami Beach. This will be the 21st edition of the world-famous art gathering that collects 200+ galleries from all five continents.

How someone presents themself in social settings and whether they fit into the rigid binary expectations of other people sharing the space with them determine the way they go through life.

But at some point, everyone needs a place to unwind and drop the weight of societal limitations.

Do you ever wonder what the future of technology will look like? So do the artists who show their work at the new virtual art exhibition by Culturally Arts Collective. The art organization continues its tradition of holding subversive and thought-provoking exhibitions with the new show titled “Mapping Reality.” Nine international artists display their works at Culturally Arts Collective’s 3-D digital gallery until January 15, 2024.

There are many factors that force art institutions, small and big, to make their collections available to the larger public online. The British Museum, one of the biggest museums in the world, has a rather pressing reason to do so. It was recently announced that the institution will be digitizing its entire collection in the aftermath of the thefts of around 2,000 objects.
