Haitham Al Busafi: Zīnah (Adornment) / Pavilion of Oman at Venice Art Biennale 2026 https://t.co/zva7mnjuXi “Zīnah (Adornment) is an immersive, kinetic soundscape that explores the profound bond between the Omani people and their horses. Utilizing the traditional al-zaanah (horse jewellery) as its primary motif, the installation invites visitors to walk across a floor of Omani sand. This movement triggers a responsive ceiling constellation of upscaled silver pieces that chime in a “minor key” of delicate resonance.”
Art in the Open: Discovering Art Môtiers 2026 in Switzerland’s Val de Travers https://t.co/E2a9DXRu6i In this film, we step out of the White Cube and into the open countryside to enjoy art in nature — specifically in Switzerland’s Val de Travers, in the west of the country. The valley is known for its absinthe production and, since 1985, for an open-air art exhibition held every four to eight years in the village of Môtiers and its surroundings. For the 2026 edition of Art Môtiers, around 40 artists were selected, including internationally renowned figures such as Pipilotti Rist and Olaf Breuning. As you follow the art trail on foot, you encounter signposts that seem unsure of their direction, a glass waterfall, trembling rubbish bins, an oversized snail shell, what appears to be a declaration of love, and a hut that releases soap bubbles.
