 October 14, 2022 • View in browserGood morning. 🌤️ Did you know that the US government refuses to let prisoners at Guantánamo keep the artworks they made there? Former and current detainees penned an open letter to President Biden asking for their art to be freed. Here's an example of a cool public art project: Two Toronto-based artists installed museum labels on crumbling bridges and sidewalks to urge authorities to do something about the city's decaying infrastructure. And guess what: The much-hyped Metaverse is near-empty most of the time, according to a report (lol). Finally, tomorrow is the last day to apply to Hyperallergic’s Journalism Fellowship for Curators, supported by the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation. Five curators will receive $5,000 grants to support their research and writing and will get to publish their work on Hyperallergic. If you're a curator, I encourage you to apply. — Hakim Bishara, Senior Editor  Guantánamo Detainees Ask Biden to Free Their ArtEight former and current detainees are petitioning the president to end a Trump-era restriction that bars artwork from leaving the military prison. | Jasmine Liu SPONSORED  Teresa Margolles, On View at James Cohan’s 52 Walker Street GalleryIn her ongoing investigation of the social and aesthetic dimensions of conflict, Teresa Margolles visualizes the enduring weight of violence. By infusing artwork with material traces of loss, she shares the stories of the disenfranchised in ways that are acutely visceral, confronting viewers physically and emotionally. WHAT'S HAPPENING  The artists placed labels next to 14 pieces of failing infrastructure. (courtesy James McCleod/AusterityTO)
