Born a decade apart, #ArthurJafa and #RichardPrince share a lawless approach to image-making—appropriating and reshaping visuals from films, pulp novels, comics, YouTube, sci-fi, album covers, record sleeves, rock posters, Beat literature, newsreels, celebrity memorabilia, and social media.

“Helter Skelter” - the new exhibition at Fondazione Prada Venezia curated by #NancySpector - reveals a creative dialogue between the two artists that has never been explored before.

The project opens on 9 May at Ca’ Corner della Regina

I’m very excited to share a project I’ve been working on for the past few years in collaboration with the great Arthur Jafa and Richard Prince. Please come see it in Venice at the Prada Foundation. It’s both a love letter to and searing indictment of the complex mess of a country we live in.
@fondazioneprada presents “Helter Skelter: Arthur Jafa and Richard Prince,” an exhibition curated by #NancySpector for the #FondazionePrada Venice venue.

The project unveils a creative conversation between the works by #ArthurJafa and #RichardPrince, two prominent American artists, which has never been examined before.

From 9 May 2026 at Ca’ Corner della Regina.

Contemplating the year ahead on my birthday with great excitement. It has been five years, almost to the day, that I became an independent curator, and I have never been happier or more fulfilled.With exhibitions coming up in Madrid, Venice, and New York as well as a book coming out in the fall, I get to work with artists every day along with amazing, generous, creative people.I look forward to sharing details of each project as they get announced.Photos: from a shoot with @linguafrancanyc, 2018, and a treasured snapshot by Felix Gonzalez-Torres, 1995.

Absolutely gutted over the closure of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. This is my mom, Beryl Spector,pitching for the local PBS station many years ago.My brother, sister, and I were brought up on the value of broadcasting for and by the public. This is bad—an assault on free speech, on culture, and art under the guise of silencing “liberal thought.” We should all be worried.@susanmcp1 @garryspector

A lovely, long Sunday afternoon with Cerith Wyn Evans.

Fantastic performance last night by Raven Chacon, Brian Jungen, Kelly Moran, and Jake Stosuy as part of Matthew Barney’s Remains series.A sonic and visual gift in these dark times manifesting precision and endurance on the knife’s edge of destruction.Is it just me or did I see an allegory for resistance?@ravenchcn @pacecarforthehubrispill

Hollywood Locusts by @chiaragabelllini for Google Pixel 9 and Creator Labs.For this project, she asked four incredible elders to pose as their favorite celebrities from their youth. Emulating the look of fan magazines from a bygone era, she tapped into fantasies and yearnings associated with cinema but also the tender vulnerabilities that come to the surface with aging. Quite amazing work conceptually and aesthetically.

Looking for something to do on Election Day to calm your nerves or seek solace or dream collectively? The great @carriemaeweems is inviting everyone to join in a marathon reading to create intention.Come to @gladstone.gallery where her cyclorama “The Shape of Things”—which positions the last decade of American politics as a circus—is on view.Organized by @devilintraining_with their usual magic, Vincent Katz, and Brian Degraw, with food lovingly cooked by Rirkrit Tiravanija & co. and Spiral Kitchen Test Kitchen.3:00 pm to midnight.Thanks to @passerbystop for galvanizing all of us to make this happen.

I can’t recommend the Whitney Museum’s Edges of Ailey exhibition enough. It represents a remarkable curatorial flex; the exhibition tells the story of Alvin Ailey’s contribution to modern dance while simultaneously demonstrating the incredible history of 20th-and 21st- century African American art in relation to the struggles for social justice. The intersection of dance, poetry, literature, art and politics is palpable.The installation is mesmerizing, immersive, non-linear—inviting close looking and a kind of relaxed-kicked-back feeling where you can let the wrap-around video and soundtrack simply take you away.I’ve often thought about how best to bring dance and the performative into the gallery and this exhibition is exemplary.Kudos to curator Adrienne Edwards and the entire Whitney team.@whitneymuseum
