Gabrielle Goliath<\/strong>\u2019s banned performance artwork commemorating Palestinian poet Hiba Abu Nada<\/strong>, initially meant to be shown at South Africa\u2019s Venice Biennale<\/strong> pavilion, will now go on display outside the main exhibition, reports the Guardian<\/em>. The Chiesa di Sant\u2019Antonin church in Venice\u2019s Castello district will host the artwork, which was nixed over its \u201chighly divisive\u201d content, as a video installation for three months, beginning May 4 and staged in partnership with the London arts center Ibraaz<\/strong>. The South African pavilion, meanwhile, will remain empty, for lack of a replacement to the Goliath exhibit. Banning the exhibition had set \u201ca dangerous precedent,\u201d said the artist, whose work grew out of an ongoing series called \u201cElegy,\u201d which she began in 2015 to mourn the murder of South African student Ipeleng Christine Moholane.<\/p>\n CASE CRACKED<\/strong>. The identities of the artist and young Black subject in an\u00a018th-century portrait acquired by the\u00a0Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO)<\/strong>\u00a0in 2020 have long mystified experts. But museum researchers now claim they\u2019ve cracked the case, reports the Art Newspaper<\/em>. The subject of the 1775 painting is apparently an enslaved woman known as Eleonora Susette<\/strong>, who was born in the former Dutch colony of present-day Guyana, while the artist was Berlin-born Jeremias Schultz<\/strong> (1722-1800). Researchers were tipped off to their identities thanks to a lucky email from a family in the Netherlands with ties to the artist. \u201cToronto is home to a large Caribbean community. It\u2019s gotten a great buzz,\u201d said Adam Harris Levine<\/strong>, associate curator of European art at AGO. \u201cResearch is still ongoing. I\u2019ll feel even better when we can share the story in its fullness,\u201d Levine added.<\/p>\n The Digest<\/strong><\/p>\n The European Commission<\/strong> and the UK have allocated further funds to support culture in Ukraine.

[The Art Newspaper]<\/p>\n The Kicker<\/strong><\/p>\n HOPE IN ALEPPO<\/strong>. The old city of Aleppo in Syria is famous for its Unesco<\/strong>-listed skyline, dense with ancient buildings and a fortified medieval palace. But the city became the frontline amid the country\u2019s long civil war and was extensively damaged by all sides. Now, a local, diverse, women-led urban restoration mission is busy rebuilding Aleppo\u2019s heritage, with a focus on lived-in historic urban structures, reports the Financial Times<\/em>. \u201cThe project stands out for linking cultural preservation with livelihoods and community resilience,\u201d said Dr Mathias Winde<\/strong>, executive director of the German-based Gerda Henkel Foundation<\/strong>, which is helping fund restoration in the city. \u201cIt emphasizes that the future of reconstruction and cultural preservation can only be shaped by Syrian communities themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [analyse_source url=”https:\/\/www.artnews.com\/art-news\/news\/banned-south-africa-pavilion-show-moves-to-another-venice-venue-enslaved-girl-identified-in-18th-century-portrait-at-art-gallery-of-ontario-morning-links-for-march-25-2026-1234778852\/”]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [analyse_image type=”featured” src=”https:\/\/www.artnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Gabrielle_Goliath.jpeg?w=1024″] To receive\u00a0Morning Links\u00a0in your inbox every weekday,\u00a0sign\u00a0up\u00a0for our\u00a0Breakfast with ARTnews\u00a0newsletter.
