LONDON MAYOR SADIQ KHAN HAS NAMED<\/b>\u00a015\u00a0PEOPLE\u00a0<\/b>to a commission aimed at\u00a0promoting diversity<\/a>\u00a0in the public realm in the capital, from\u00a0statues to street names. They include\u00a0Zo\u00e9 Whitley<\/b>, the director of the city\u2019s\u00a0Chisenhale Gallery<\/b>, and critic\u00a0Robert Bevan<\/b>, the\u00a0Art Newspaper<\/i>\u00a0reports. \u201cIt\u2019s not just about taking down statues, it\u2019s about creating new commissions that will inspire generations,\u201d art historian\u00a0Aindrea Emelife<\/b>, another panel member,\u00a0told\u00a0the\u00a0Guardian<\/i>. Khan first announced plans to assemble the group after a\u00a0statue of slave trader Edward Colston<\/a>\u00a0was tossed into Bristol\u2019s harbor last year. In Copenhagen, meanwhile, debate is raging over an art collective\u2019s move to\u00a0throw a bust<\/a>\u00a0of\u00a0Frederik V\u00a0<\/b>(1723\u201366), king of Denmark,\u00a0into the city\u2019s harbor because of his government\u2019s ties to slavery, the\u00a0New York Times<\/i>\u00a0reports. An artist involved in the action,\u00a0Katrine Dirckinck-Holmfeld<\/b>, has been fired from her position at the\u00a0Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts<\/b>, which displayed the piece, and some have criticized the protest as an example of out-of-control cancel culture. \u201cThis is about confronting our own image,\u201d Dirckinck-Holmfeld said. \u201cIn Danish consciousness, there\u2019s this idea that we were a very small and friendly colonial power, and also that racism is an American problem.\u201d<\/p>\n

DEALERS WATCHING THE RECENT SALE OF THE\u00a0$92 MILLION\u00a0BOTTICELLI<\/b>\u00a0at\u00a0Sotheby\u2019s<\/b>\u00a0had a bet going about its final price, and the one with the worst guess now owes them a tony dinner. As\u00a0Bloomberg<\/i>\u00a0tells it\u00a0, that\u2019s a case study in the difficulty in pricing top-flight artworks\u2014pieces that do not have clear market parallels for making estimates. The key: look to other major works, regardless of field, said\u00a0Christopher Apostle<\/b>, Sotheby\u2019s\u00a0Old Masters<\/a>\u00a0head. \u201cYou\u2019ve got to look at the whole panoply of what a masterpiece is, and I don\u2019t think there\u2019s a difference between a masterpiece by\u00a0Basquiat<\/b>\u00a0or\u00a0Rembrandt<\/b>\u00a0or\u00a0Botticelli<\/b>.\u201d\u00a0Speaking of the Old Masters,\u00a0Angelica Villa<\/b>\u00a0spoke with curators and dealers about\u00a0the legacy\u00a0of the late\u00a0Richard L. Feigen<\/b>, who was a\u00a0giant in the field<\/a>, for\u00a0ARTnews<\/i>.\u00a0\u201cHe had an extraordinary eye and was a great connoisseur,\u201d\u00a0Eric Lee<\/b>, director of the\u00a0Kimbell Art Museum<\/b>\u00a0in Fort Worth, Texas, said. \u201cHe always thought of the context when he considered placing a work of art.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Digest<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Though U.S. art museums have voiced commitments to pursuing\u00a0diversity<\/a>, equity, and inclusion initiatives, many are staying quiet about how much funding they are putting toward such efforts, Zachary Small reports.\u00a0[Atelier Auction]<\/a><\/p>\n

The ever-divisive artist\u00a0KAWS<\/a> got the profile treatment from M. H. Miller.\u00a0His show at the Brooklyn Museum opens later this month, and tickets for the opening weekend are already sold out.<\/p>\n

The Vancouver Art Gallery is scaling back its plans for an expansion amid stalled fundraising.<\/p>\n

The philanthropist Amar Singh, who recently gave a\u00a0portrait of Amanda Gorman to Harvard<\/a>, has said he will donate $5 million by 2025 to museums to help them diversity their collections.<\/p>\n

Aaron De Groft has been named director and CEO of the Orlando Museum of Art in Florida. He comes aboard after 14 years leading the Muscarelle Museum of Art at the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia.<\/p>\n

The Substation, Singapore\u2019s first independent art space, is at risk of losing full use of its current home\u00a0after some 30 years.\u00a0[Atelier Auction]<\/a><\/p>\n

Sculptor John Amanam has been developing prosthetics that have darker skin tones.<\/p>\n

The Los Angeles County Museum of Art is selling a $2.2 million residence that it bought for director Michael Govan last year. A spokesperson cited \u201cthe ongoing impact of the pandemic\u201d for the decision, saying that museum\u2019s director will no longer live in museum-owned housing.<\/p>\n

Did North West, the 7-year-old daughter of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, really paint the luminous landscape that her mother posted on Instagram? Many on social media had doubts. However, the daughter of North\u2019s rumored art teacher defended the authenticity of the work.<\/p>\n

Flashback: In 2017, Brian Belott staged a show of children\u2019s art at Gavin Brown\u2019s Enterprise (R.I.P.) in Harlem. Their art, he said, is \u201can unstoppable force.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Kicker<\/b><\/h3>\n

THERE HAS BEEN NO SHORTAGE OF ARTICLES ABOUT HOW THE PANDEMIC<\/b>\u00a0has boosted online viewing rooms and online art fairs, but\u00a0Wired<\/i> spoke with artists<\/a> about how it has shaped their working methods\u2014and their art. Some were skeptical of the turn to the web. As lockdowns hit,\u00a0Simon Denny<\/b>\u00a0explained, \u201cAt first I was like, \u2018OK great, digital.\u2019 I\u2019m an artist who\u2019s interested in technology. And then, after one month, [I thought]\u00a0\u2018I never want to look at another website ever again.\u2019<\/b> \u201c<\/p>\n
