- Fire Island Artist Residency’s online editions store recently added a really good Catherine Opie reprint. [FIAR]

- Entertainment Weekly has published the most scathing film review I have read: “In terms of content and meaningfulness, Terrence Malick’s Song to Song is the cinematic equivalent of a Trump press conference. Incoherent, disconnected, self-interrupting, obsessed with pointless minutiae and crammed full of odd, limp stabs at profundity from a closed-off man in his 70s who apparently has no ability to edit or accept constructive criticism. Malick, too, still inspires a passionate minority of hardcore devotees who will defend everything he does, no matter how inept or ludicrous, out of some bizarre sense of base loyalty towards the man who made Days of Heaven 39 years ago. Even for those groupies, this new humiliating wreck of a movie—the reclusive director’s worst ever—presents a test of will.” [Entertainment Weekly]
- Danish police tracked down a collection of stolen paintings 16 years after their theft. But since the owner’s insurance company already paid for their value, they won’t be going home to the collector. [artnet News]
- The Satanic Temple has launched its own art gallery in Salem, Massachusetts. Right now they’re showing Vincent Castiglia paintings made from human blood. I’m confused as to how these look so boring. [Observer]
- Apply for the PhotoIreland Festival. This year, curators are looking for work that relates to a creepy old library. [PhotoIreland]
