 October 6, 2022 • View in browserGood morning. 🌤️ What do King Charles and Donald Trump have in common besides being petulant little men born with golden spoons in their mouths? Well, it's their push for neoclassical architecture and demagogic disdain for modernist designs, as you can read in our special report today. In other news, the auction house Christie's stopped selling $125 sweatshirts with the writing "Art Handler" after it was scolded online by actual art handlers. Besides, those sweatshirts were hideous. We have the full story, including screenshots of the removed product. Also today, depictions of witches in art history, a review of an arts festival in Tunisia, the story of a stolen $100M de Kooning painting, and much more. — Hakim Bishara, Senior Editor  King Charles Wants to Make Britain "Beautiful" AgainThe British monarch and Donald Trump have both tried to impose neoclassical architecture on their countries — and one of them actually succeeded. | Billy Anania SPONSORED  WHAT'S HAPPENING  A photo of the original Christie's sweatshirt on Art Handlers Alliance's Instagram (screenshot Valentina Di Liscia/Hyperallergic)
