 December 19, 2022Good morning. 🌤️ I don’t know about you, but I feel like I’ve spent another weekend watching Twitter’s meltdown, including the banning of prominent mainstream journalists and a visit by Musk to the World Cup final match in Qatar to sit beside Jared Kushner. As the world's richest, I mean second richest man, continues to dismantle a major social media platform, Hyperallergic's tweet about its new Mastodon account was removed by the site. Twitter looks desperate to stop the outflow of users (there were 3M accounts, mostly unused, on the platform when Musk took over Twitter and currently there are 8.6M). In case you want to connect with us, you can follow us over on Mastodon at https://newsie.social/@hyperallergic. On Friday, Roman Catholic Pope Francis announced that he would make a “donation” of all the fragments of the Parthenon Marbles held at the Vatican Museums to the Greek Orthodox Christian archbishop His Beatitude Ieronymos II of Athens as a gesture of his intention to “follow in the ecumenical path of truth.” And finally, I want to wish a Happy Hanukkah to all who celebrate. And in this edition, Sarah Rose Sharp takes a look at how artists from Salvador Dalí to Peter Shire have remixed the traditional menorah. — Hrag Vartanian, editor-in-chief  Airport Art Is Taking OffAirports across the US have been taking art more seriously in recent years.
