A Glasgow museum removes mummies that were in exhibition for decades, and they did it as a sign of respect to the deceased, that did not consent to be publicly exhibited. And you know what?! I fully agree, and I think all other museums should follow!!! www.dn.pt/cultura/muse...

Walking through museums like the Museo del Prado in Madrid, always leaves me with a lingering question: why are there so few female painters represented? If you wish to cover that gap, make yourself a favour and get acquainted with the work of the 17th-century Italian master Artemisia Gentileschi.

Excellent example where less is more, and how with simple but very clever ideas Humans may have a less and a more benign impact on Nature. Anna Jørgensen is even "teaching" her Grape plants to "drink" water deeper, in preparation of a drier future. Just amazing!!! www.publico.pt/2024/09/30/t...
