12th House Jewelry was such a delight to see at NY NOW – I have been following Kelly since the very beginning of her career. I remember finding her page on Instagram during the height of the pandemic and being totally inspired by her designs. They’re incredibly mystical and have a talismanic feel, which is something I’ve craved to feel with my jewelry since 2020. I wanted a piece that protected me, that made me feel powerful, and held meaning – something her jewelry definitely captures in every way. I tried on several of her pieces and the rings are…

The National Park Service (NPS), a government body overseeing federally protected public grounds, has removed all mention of transgender individuals involved in the Stonewall Uprising, a 1969 New York protest led by queer and trans activists that is said to have jump-started the gay rights movement. On its webpage, NPS has changed its terminology, replacing “LGBTQ+” with “LGB” or “LGBQ,” excluding transgender people from the narrative. The word “queer” has also been removed. The revised page now states: “Before the 1960s, almost everything about living openly as a lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) person was illegal, but the events at the…
Roman and Williams, the design studio and hospitality group behind Soho’s La Mercerie, will partner with auction house Sotheby’s to open a yet-to-be-named fine dining restaurant in the Breuer Building. In 2023, Sotheby’s announced it would make the storied Brutalist building at 945 Madison Avenue its new headquarters.

Mel Bochner, a conceptual artist who incisively explored the slippery relationship between language and art, died on February 12 at 84. His death was announced on Friday by three of his galleries, Fraenkel, Marc Selwyn Fine Art, and Peter Freeman Inc. Bochner was one of the key artists associated with the Conceptualist movement during the 1960s and ’70s. In legendary pieces that hardly looked much like art at all, he offered measurements, numbers, words, and others’ photocopied drawings within galleries. There was often little to admire, and that was intentional—Bochner wanted viewers to think of art as being more than…
The secondary market today is driven by two things: quality and prestige. Often those two things are tied together; after all, the most well respected collectors are usually those with the best collections. When such marquee collectors die, it’s inevitable that Christie’s and Sotheby’s try to outmanuever each other for the estates’ business, as seems to be the case right now over the collection of Barnes and Noble co-founder and former ARTnews Top 200 collector Leonard Riggio, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the negotiations. Riggio, who passed away in August 2024, was a profound collector of the Minimalists and a…

The Getty Museum has acquired its first artificial intelligence-generated photograph. The work Cristian en el Amor de Calle (2024), by queer Costa Rican photographer Matías Sauter Morera, depicts two young Latino men in blue leather jackets with gold embellishments in a bar or café. There is an intensity in the central figure’s outward gaze. The piece recalls the queer history of pegamachos, or cowboys from the Guanacaste Coast, who became renowned for their secret affairs with young gay men. Given their undercover lifestyle, anonymity is paramount to guarding the pegamachos’ safety. As such, Morera employed AI to create the work and…
