When the Nazis decided to wade into the Spanish Civil War in 1937 in support of their fascist ally Francisco Franco, they did so by dropping bombs indiscriminately on the Basque town of Guernica. No distinction was made by those flying overhead between civilians and militants: many hundreds died, most of them women and children. It was a bitter foretaste of what was to come. In the years which followed, civilian bombing became a hallmark of the changing face of modern warfare, the term blitzkrieg soon entering international parlance. Sotheby's unveils masterpieces by Monet, Picasso, and Bacon ...

Happy May! And may it be filled with many a cool cultural plan. As anticipation builds for Cannes 2024 (Messi, the dog from Anatomy of a Fall, will be filming his own show at the festival FYI) there's also the fashion mecca that is 2024's Met Gala, the Eurovision Song Contest, the ongoing Venice Biennale and much, much more in store for the rest of the month. This week, we're perhaps most excited about a Kimono exhibition opening in Scotland, Ryan Gosling's fun new action movie The Fall Guy, and listening to Dua Lipa's latest album, 'Radical Optimism' \- a thing we try to channel in these dige...

The “Light in Life” exhibition will take place on the 132-hectare site and will be open from May 4 to September 29. The sculptures, made mostly of stainless steel, are spread across vegetation’s Kew to reflect the greenery of the site. Quinn says: ’Kew approached me to do something and I came down, and I hadn't been for a long time. And when I came here and realised that they have hundreds of scientists doing research and horticulturists and I spent more and more time here, I realised that there was a whole show to do here, so we worked together to do that.’ The exhibition aims to attract more...

I’ve seen Picasso’s "Guernica". I’ve stood in front of Michelangelo’s David. I’ve found myself in a trance when faced with Francis Bacon’s “Study after Velázquez's Portrait of Pope Innocent X”. But I’d never seen anything quite like the immersive Klimt exhibition. I experienced it during a recent visit to Warsaw. After having sampled the many culinary joys of Poland’s capital (which are numerous and yummy), I ended up at the Klimt event after having been somewhat duped by guides and online reviews to visit the Soho Factory in the old post-industrial area in Praga – Warsaw's east riverside “alt...

Well, there goes another eventful week. Mona Lisa is moving, AI beauty pageants are a thing, and there's also a new Eminem album on the horizon. Yet none of these announcements could detract from what the internet really cares about right now: Challengers. Yes, Luca Guadagnino's new film, a titillating tennis-themed loved triangle starring Zendaya, is out at cinemas and serving memes (and thirst posts) left, right and centre (more on this below.)

First Nations artist, Archie Moore, has clinched the prestigious Golden Lion Award for Best National Participation at the 60th edition of the Venice Biennale. This is the first time an Australian artist has received this honour. Moore's work "Kith and Kin" explores his Australian aboriginal and British ancestry and spans an incredible 65,000 years. Moore traced his family history back to create a family tree, which he carefully drew in chalk on the black walls of the Australia Pavilion. The work thus examines First Nation Australian history and the impact of colonisation. In a speech recognisi...

The showcase honours the 250th anniversary of Friedrich's birth, who is hailed as one of Germany's preeminent artists over the past two centuries.
