The <strong>Villa Dom\u00ednguez Jewish Museum,<\/strong> in a rural Argentine town in the Entre R\u00edos Province located 225 miles north of Buenos Aires, has said it\u2019s keeping its doors open despite water damage affecting walls, documents, and historical objects. \u201cWe are resolving the situation with an agreement in which the building belongs to the municipality, while the Jewish community is in charge of safeguarding the objects. The museum is still operating,\u201d community head Marina Garber told the <strong><em><u>Jewish Telegraphic Agency<\/u><\/em><\/strong>. As of late, the museum has garnered much media attention following the resignation of <strong>Osvaldo Quiroga<\/strong> in January 2025, the local historian who oversaw the museum for nearly four decades. Troubles at the museum erupted following the government\u2019s lack of attention to the site, while other sources say that some government officials were jealous of Quiroga\u2019s media attention. Despite Villa Dom\u00ednguez\u2019s nine remaining Jews, the museum remains an important part of the town, tracing the history of Argentinian Jewish ranchers, farmers and the cowboys known as gauchos. Pablo Soskin, the representative in Entre R\u00edos for the Argentine Jewish political umbrella organization DAIA, told <em>JTA<\/em> that they maintain a close relationship with the local government, which has \u201cexpressed its commitment to making the museum and the Jewish circuit part of the province\u2019s tourist attractions for locals and foreigners.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \"><strong>NEW RECORD FOR THE SWEDE? <\/strong>Stockholm auction house Bukowskis is auctioning off Hilma af Klint\u2019s abstract painting <em>Ser III No<\/em> on November 19 with an estimate of $600,000 to $800,000, which could break an auction record for the artist, reported <strong><em><u>The Art Newspaper<\/u><\/em><\/strong>. The painting was acquired by a private collector in 1995 after the Hilma af Klint Foundation deaccessioned the artwork. In March, the artist\u2019s <em>Vid ankdammen<\/em> sold for $54,000 at Christie\u2019s and another work, <em>The Power of the Spleen<\/em>, sold for $165,825 at Stockholm\u2019s Auktionsverk in 2019. Only two abstract paintings from the artist have been sold at auction in more than three decades, according to Louise Wrede, the head of Bukowskis art department.
