‘Radical Women’ at the Hammer Museum Is the Kind of Show That Art Critics Live For It leaves you wanting more, and asking questions. “ Radical Women: Latin American Art, 1960-1985 ” at the  Hammer Museum  in Los Angeles, is not just a fantastic exhibition. It’s the kind of exhibition that people always  say  we need more of—as regular as a ticking clock—every time the latest selfie-courting contemporary-art spectacular provokes a new spasm of anguish from critics about the decline of the museum.

The 5 Biggest Controversies in Venice Biennale History The grand exhibition hasn't always covered itself in glory. Henri Neuendorf ,  May 9, 2017 The Grand Canal in Venice. Photo: MIGUEL MEDINA/AFP/Getty Images. The Venice Biennale is the grandest event in the art calendar—an international exhibition designed to compare and contrast world cultures through visual art. Yet the Biennale’s stature has not inoculated it against controversy over the years. The exhibition has suffered several dust-ups in its 114-year history, from vexing grand prize winners to derogatory showcases of “primitive” African art. On the eve of the opening of the 57th edition of the Biennale, we examine the historic festival’s five most contentious controversies. The Icelandic Pavilion at the 2015 Venice Biennale.
