- Is it time to start worrying that Donald Trump will actually place an overall cap on deductions? The Art Newspaper has a piece on how this change could effect museum income. (Long story short it would be a catastrophe.) But this is one thing I’m not worried about. Donald Trump will want better ways of sheltering his money from the IRS than continually bankrupting himself. This is a very easy means to that end. [The Art Newspaper]
- A bi-partisan group of women have decided it would be a great idea to have a women’s history museum in the national mall in DC and are asking for Donald Trump’s support. My first impulse was to wonder why anyone would want the support of a self professed pussy-grabber but than I remembered that America elected this man, so they now need his support to get this done. *Wipes tears.* [The New York Times]
- Activist artist Dread Scott gets a profile. I expect we’ll be hearing a lot from this artist over the next four years. [ARTnews]
- Artists and activists look back on the three month long residency “Decolonize This Space” at Artist’s Space. Artist Betty Yu talked about the need to be more creative with protests because people don’t want to out to the same old ones. Is this really true? I don’t think I’ve ever gone to a protest because I thought it was clever or was doing something different. I go because I want to express my support in the cause. [Hyperallergic]
- ABC No Rio’s total rebuild of their space has hit a snag. Higher than anticipated building costs. [Curbed]
- The end times are near. A Williamsburg cafe is now selling $9 unicorn lattes. [Gothamist]
