Convelio and SML Unveil Groundbreaking Art Operations Talent Report
The Art Operations Talent Report arrives at a time when issues of equity, transparency, and inclusion are at the forefront of many industries, including the art world. PARIS .- In a significant move aimed at shedding light on the often-overlooked segment of the art world, Convelio, a leader in fine art logistics, and SML | Sophie Macpherson Limited, an expert in art recruitment, have joined forces to release the inaugural edition of the Art Operations Talent Report. Drawing from over 900 records collected through surveys from Convelio, SML, and ArtTactic, the report offers a comprehensive overview of the current state of art operations roles in the UK, Continental Europe, and the U.S. The report delves deep into the challenges, opportunities, and trends experienced by both employees and employers in the art operations field, a sector critical to the functioning of the global art market but often overlooked in discussions dominated by curation and sales. ...

Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art names Jessica S. Hong Chief Curator KANSAS CITY, MO .- Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art announced today that Jessica S. Hong has been appointed to lead the museum’s curatorial program as chief curator, effective December 30, 2024. Hong joins Kemper Museum from the Toledo Museum of Art (Toledo, OH) where she is the senior curator of modern and contemporary art.

She has collaborated with artists on major projects and exhibitions including “Jean Shin: Perch” (2024) at Appleton Farms in Ipswich, MA, the first site-specific commission at the oldest ... More Roald Dahl is antisemitic, but not a cartoon villain, in 'Giant' LONDON .- It started with a book review. In the August 1983 issue of Literary Review, a British journal, beloved children’s author Roald Dahl reviewed an eyewitness account of Israel’s 1982 invasion of Lebanon. In a strident piece, Dahl mourned the disproportionate loss of Arab civilian life in that conflict, and appeared to crassly conflate the actions of the Israeli state with the will of the Jewish people. He also asserted that all Jews had a responsibility to denounce Israel. Later that month, in an interview in The New Statesman newsmagazine, he was asked to clarify those remarks. Dahl went further, saying, “There is a trait in the Jewish character that does provoke animosity.” He went on: “I mean, there’s always a reason why anti-anything crops up anywhere. Even a stinker like Hitler didn’t just pick on them for no reason.” This shameful episode, which left a stain ... More 'The Hills of California,' alive with the sound of music NEW YORK, NY .- Two sounds greet you at the start of “The Hills of California,” Jez Butterworth’s relentlessly entertaining new play: the crashing of waves on the beaches of Blackpool and the tinkling of a tinny piano being tuned. Both are plot points: The story concerns a musical family operating a rundown resort on the west coast of England. “Boogie-Woogie Bugle Boy,” “It Never Entered My Mind,” “When I Fall in Love” and “Dream a Little Dream of Me” are among the marvelous oldies you’ll hear sung during the course of the action. But the crashing and tuning are thematic points, too. Though frequently funny and, even at nearly three hours, swift, “The Hills of California,” which opened Sunday at the Broadhurst Theater, drops you deep into the devastations of time and lifts you gently into the consolations of song. It does so within a familiar ... More What to know about Francis Ford Coppola and 'Megalopolis' NEW YORK, NY .- Francis Ford Coppola waged war with studio heads throughout the making of “The Godfather.” Production on his 1979 Vietnam War epic, “Apocalypse Now,” was so troubled — there was a typhoon and a near-fatal heart attack — that it was chronicled in a documentary. So it’s not exactly a surprise that his latest movie, “Megalopolis,” a nearly 2-1/2-hour futuristic fable about the battle between art and greed that stars Adam Driver, arrived in theaters Friday mired in controversy. The 85-year-old filmmaker’s self-financed passion project, which he conceived all the way back in the 1970s, has earned headlines about a reportedly chaotic shoot, allegations of misconduct and questions about the film’s commercial prospects. While we wait to see whether it will find a place in the canon of Coppola masterpieces ... More Malcolm Gladwell holds his ideas loosely. He thinks you should, too. NEW YORK, NY .- Malcolm Gladwell, the bestselling author, has an office on a quiet street in Hudson, New York, where he sits at a desk under a poster of Mao Zedong, the former communist leader of China. Why? Maybe to signal how ideas can be dangerous? Nope, no particular reason. There are two other Chinese communist posters on the wall, too. “I found them online for like $10,” said Gladwell, 61. “I just think it’s funny.” Gladwell, who has spent his career steeped in ideas and translating social science research into everyday usefulness, says he doesn’t take his own ideas too seriously. But others do. His first book, “The Tipping Point,” became a sensation when it was released in 2000. The book explained how something ordinary — whether a shoe (Hush Puppies loafers), a behavior (theft) or an idea (“the British are coming”) — spreads so wide that ... More Gavin Creel, Tony-winning musical theater actor, dies at 48 NEW YORK, NY .- Gavin Creel, a sly and charming musical theater actor who won a Tony Award as a wide-eyed adventure seeker in “Hello, Dolly!” and an Olivier Award as a preening missionary in “The Book of Mormon,” died Monday at his home in the New York City borough of Manhattan. He was 48. His death was confirmed by his partner, Alex Temple Ward, via a publicist, Matt Polk. The cause was metastatic melanotic peripheral nerve sheath sarcoma, a rare form of cancer, which Creel learned he had in July. Creel was a well-liked member of the New York theater community whose death comes as a shock, given his age; he had been performing on Broadway for two decades, mostly in starring roles, and just last winter, his physical and vocal agility, as well as his charisma and curiosity, were on display in a memoiristic show he wrote ...
