WASHINGTON, DC.- One crawled across the rain-drenched ground of what is now Texas more than 270 million years ago, possibly feasting on fast-moving insects. The other endeared himself to millions as the banjo-playing roving newscaster and reluctant beau of Miss Piggy, known as Kermit the Frog. Now they share a name. On Thursday, scientists announced that they had named a newly identified ancient ancestor of modern-day amphibians Kermitops gratus in honor of Kermit the Frog. Although it couldnt sing Rainbow Connection or deliver the news, the salamanderlike species seemed to bear a striking resemblance to the beloved Muppet, said Calvin So, a doctoral student in the department of biological sciences at George Wash ...

Looking for love with Burt Bacharach, and finding a prayer NEW YORK, NY.- In most parts of the world, its true that love the sweeter the better is the only thing that theres just too little of. In Mark Morris The Look of Love, set to music by Burt Bacharach with new arrangements by Ethan Iverson, love is the fuel, the pursuit, the ultimate destination. There are hugs, there are outstretched arms to say a little prayer for you, Morris-style and there is heartbreak. In some moments the dancers bodies wilt, as if caught in a sigh. The work, set to 14 songs and running at just over an hour, opened with the curtain down and an instrumental overture of Alfie by Iverson, whose piano playing was delicate but still cut through the air, quieting the energy of the crowd. When the curtain rose to What the World Needs Now, it felt apt, setting the tone for a dance in which love is the wellspring for ... More

Tony Cragg's new exhibition 'New Sculptures' opens at Thaddaeus Ropac SALZBURG.- Focusing on his most recent bodies of work, this exhibition offers a view into the breadth of Tony Craggs latest formal developments, which are defined by the British artists continual investigation into the possibilities of a wide range of materials and his exploration of both the natural and the man-made worlds. His work has the accumulated effect of subtly unsettling the certainties of such categories, whilst allowing us to think through sculpture about the complex material connectivities between [ ] culture and nature, writes art historian Jon Wood.

Black pop artists have long gone country. Here's a brief history. NEW YORK, NY.- When Beyoncé confirmed that she would be going all-in on country music with Cowboy Carter, the second part of a project that began with her 2022 album Renaissance, conversation about pop artists turning to the genre and how Black artists are received in Nashville began to heat up.

In the past few years, Lil Nas X sparked cultural debate and hit chart gold with Old Town Road, a country-rap mashup ... More

Joan Jonas' island home as canvas and stage NEW YORK, NY.- The view never ends from the weathered porch of Joan Jonas summer home on a hill in Cape Breton Island, on the tip of Nova Scotia. Just beyond a thicket of treetops, the Gulf of St. Lawrence sways in a gradient of blues, a cobalt horizon line hovering where sea meets sky. For decades, the vista has served as the summer backdrop for New York City artists including Richard Serra, Philip Glass, Robert Frank and June Leaf seeking rugged beauty, anonymity and temperate weather. For Jonas, 87, who arrived with friends in the 70s, it has been a canvas. I performed in it, she said of the landscape in a recent interview, her voice gruff and blunt but not unkind. It inspired me. What can I say? Many honorifics have been heaped on Jonas in an attempt to sum up her trailblazing legacy and elusive spirit: vanguard, ... More
