July 21, 2025: Art Spell's 200th Newsletter

Your morning brew of art world media

Today marks Art Spell’s 200th daily roundup of art world news. We wouldn’t be here without the great writers and editors who keep us informed with news, reviews, and other art world insights. We’d love to hear what you think of our service. Let us know how we are doing and if you have any suggestions for other outlets we should consider including.

If you’re enjoying Art Spell, please tell your friends and colleagues about us—we rely on your subscriptions (starting at just $5/month) to help keep us going, and as always, all profits go toward nonprofit organizations that support art writers and journalists.

Today’s Editor’s Pick is Visa Denials Create Hurdles for Artist Residencies by Maya Pontone for Hyperallergic. Denied Visas and closed embassies continue to prevent international artists from accessing the vital experiences provided by residencies.
