A delightful interview

Diminishing the achievements of women architects feeds into today’s inequalities So many important female pioneers in architecture are barely remembered, let alone celebrated, write Biba Dow and Ros Diamond

'The Psyche Mirror.' (1876) Berthe Morisot was closely associated with French Impressionism and participated in all the group’s exhibitions. In this work, light is entering from the two windows either side of the mirror, something emphasised by the impressive range of whites.

The Education of the Virgin, by Spanish Baroque sculptor Luisa Roldán. Typically, 17th c. artists used polychrome on soft wood. Here, a legendary scene of Mary being taught to read by her mother, St. Anne.

Fascinating!

Bookmarked for slow reading!

Tehching Hsieh—an “Artist Without Art” In his performances, he questioned whether or not an artwork needed to supply a specific meaning in order to generate a feeling.

I wrote about the brilliant performance artist Tehching Hsieh and his current retrospective at Dia Beacon for @booksandthearts.bsky.social. This was some of the hardest thinking I've done in a while—Hsieh's work is so challenging, in the best way!

Here's what to know about International Women's Day — a celebration and a call to action Officially recognized by the United Nations in 1977, International Women’s Day is commemorated in different ways and to varying degrees in places around the world.

2026 marks the 115th year of International Women's Day. This years' theme is "Give to Gain," with a focus on fundraising for organizations focused on women's issues and less tangible forms of giving such as teaching peers, celebrating women and "challenging discrimination."https://to.pbs.org/4s6bgvO

Happy International Women’s Day - today I’m celebrating Rose Thurgood, a poor woman with a “hard and hungry” stomach who supported her four children alone after being abandoned by her husband - and found the inspiration and courage to write one of the earliest English autobiographies in the 1630s

First good sunset in ages! 😁
