There is very little human figuration in the 2026 #VeniceBiennale, which signals a significant shift away from an anthropocentric vision of art and the world toward a more post-human universalism that reconsiders human presence and creation within a broader ecosystem.
At least in its main exhibition, the Biennale moves away from identity-based frameworks—national, racial and gendered—that dominated many past editions, shifting instead toward an exercise in healing and mending historical fractures, not only between humans, but between beings more broadly.

The relationship between #SamAltman and #IlyaSutskever, an OpenAI co-founder and the company’s former chief scientist, has long been tumultuous.
Once considered close collaborators, the pair split in 2023 when Sutskever orchestrated Altman’s brief ouster as CEO.
He later reversed course and called for Altman’s reinstatement, a move he described as a “Hail Mary” during testimony in the ongoing trial of Elon Musk’s lawsuit against #OpenAI.

President #DonaldTrump will travel to Beijing this week for a two-day summit with Chinese President #XiJinping, accompanied by a delegation of top U.S. CEOs from the technology, finance and manufacturing sectors.
The meetings come at a particularly strained moment in U.S.-China relations, with tensions spanning trade, #AI, semiconductor exports, Taiwan, fentanyl trafficking and the economic fallout from the war in Iran.
The White House has invited 16 business leaders to join the trip, including Tesla and SpaceX CEO #ElonMusk, Apple’s #TimCook and BlackRock’s #LarryFink.

The 2026 edition of the #VeniceBiennale is vast and dense, loosely entangled by a common thread that relates more to methodology than content: an invitation to slow down, contemplate and meditate in silence through the encounter with art
Observer’s @elisartgal was on the ground, where the 110 participating artists, collaborative duos, collectives and artist-centered organizations revisit colonial histories, ecological trauma and spiritual traditions to imagine coexistence grounded in attunement rather than domination.

Rex Taylor Reed, the legendary film critic whose sharp wit, uncompromising taste and distinctive prose made him one of the most recognizable voices in American cultural journalism for six decades, died in his sleep on May 12, 2026, in New York City. He was 87.
@merincurotto was his editor at Observer for almost a decade. The #RexReed she knew bore little resemblance to the curmudgeon of popular imagination.
Or perhaps it’s more accurate to say he was that, but he was so much else besides.

David Kass, a finance professor at the @univofmaryland, is a longtime attendee of #BerkshireHathaway’s annual shareholder meeting in Omaha—an event so popular it has earned the nickname “Woodstock of Capitalism.”
In past years, Kass saw lines forming around the block as early as 6 a.m., along with overflow rooms and packed exhibition halls. This year’s gathering, the first led by Berkshire’s new CEO Greg Abel instead of #WarrenBuffett, who recently transitioned to chairman after his 60-year CEO tenure, felt noticeably different.
“Attendance was way down,” Kass told Observer.
Official figures haven’t been released, but early estimates suggest attendance was roughly 30 percent lower than the usual crowd of about 40,000, raising concerns for local businesses that typically benefit from the event’s economic boost.

Fears that #AI could displace human workers have become a defining concern for younger generations.
@Nvidia CEO #JensenHuang sees it differently.
The technology, he argues, has “kick-started a revolutionary wave”—one that today’s graduates are well positioned to ride, Huang said during a keynote address at @carnegiemellon’s commencement ceremony yesterday.
Rather than shy away from A.I., he urged graduates to embrace it.

When considering the life of Sunny von Bülow, it’s tempting to begin at the end.
We are inclined to remember her as she was immortalized in the newspapers of the early 1980s—bed-bound in a diabetic coma, which may (or may not) have been induced by her husband, Claus.
She remained unconscious in an Upper East Side nursing home for 28 years, finally passing away in 2008.
But there was a great deal before that.

In many ways, Evan Chow (@e.v.a.n.c.h.o.w) is representative of a new generation of Asian #artcollectors reimagining what dynastic art collecting looks like in the 21st Century.
A managing partner of MCL Financial Group and a descendant of the Li family that founded the Bank of East Asia, he established and runs the family office, CEG Capital, alongside his wider financial interests.
A founding patron of the @mplusmuseum, Chow is also part of the Board of Governors of the @hongkongartscentre, one of the oldest public art institutions in the city, international council member at @tate, as well as board trustee and Co-Chair of the International Leadership Council at the @newmuseum—an institutional footprint that reflects a collector who has long understood that patronage and acquisition are two sides of the same coin.
Observer connected with Hong Kong-based collector to discuss his penchant for contemporary art, practicing restraint and persistence and how his aesthetic and collecting philosophy have changed over the years.

#EstherWojcicki lives less than 10 minutes away from both of her daughters and her many grandchildren in Palo Alto.
On #MothersDay, that proximity turns into, in her own words, “chaos.”
“Kids are running around with presents. Nobody is organized. They’re all really excited. They want to know where the cake is,” she told Observer. “I celebrate my daughters as mothers, of course, and they celebrate me as mother. All the kids celebrate me as the grandmother, otherwise known as Nana.”

On #MothersDay, that proximity turns into, in her own words, “chaos.”
“Kids are running around with presents. Nobody is organized. They’re all really excited. They want to know where the cake is,” she told Observer. “I celebrate my daughters as mothers, of course, and they celebrate me as mother. All the kids celebrate me as the grandmother, otherwise known as Nana.”

In Tokyo’s hectic Shibuya district, the bespoke wooden speakers beckoning from the double-height wall are the stars of Meikyoku Kissa Lion. Enlivened by a statement chandelier, the dark, moody, Baroque-inspired space has wooed classical music fans for decades.
Here, the ambiance is akin to a salon-style concert, with all attention focused on the spinning record of the moment. Phones are hidden away. Even whispering is verboten.
As social life increasingly prioritizes connection, Japanese listening rooms, rooted in jazz, are acting as muse. In these discreet sanctuaries, vast stashes of vinyl savored in communal silence take center stage, continuously informing a flood of high-fidelity #bars around the world in various permutations.

El Instagram Story Viewer es una herramienta sencilla que te permite ver y guardar en secreto historias, videos, fotos o IGTV de Instagram. Con este servicio, puedes descargar contenido y disfrutarlo sin conexión cuando lo desees. Si encuentras algo interesante en Instagram que quieras revisar más tarde o si prefieres ver historias de forma anónima, nuestro visor es perfecto para ti. Anonstories ofrece una excelente solución para mantener tu identidad oculta. Instagram lanzó la función de Historias en agosto de 2023, adoptada rápidamente por otras plataformas debido a su formato dinámico y temporal. Las Historias permiten a los usuarios compartir actualizaciones rápidas, como fotos, videos o selfies, mejoradas con texto, emojis o filtros, y son visibles por solo 24 horas. Este marco de tiempo limitado genera un alto compromiso en comparación con las publicaciones regulares. En el mundo actual, las Historias son una de las formas más populares de conectar y comunicarse en redes sociales. Sin embargo, al ver una Historia, el creador puede ver tu nombre en su lista de visualizaciones, lo cual puede ser una preocupación de privacidad. ¿Qué hacer si deseas explorar Historias sin ser detectado? Aquí es donde Anonstories resulta útil. Te permite ver contenido público de Instagram sin revelar tu identidad. Simplemente ingresa el nombre de usuario del perfil que te interesa, y la herramienta mostrará sus Historias más recientes. Funciones de Anonstories Viewer: - Navegación anónima: Mira Historias sin aparecer en la lista de visualizaciones. - Sin cuenta requerida: Ve contenido público sin necesidad de registrarte en Instagram. - Descarga de contenido: Guarda cualquier Historia directamente en tu dispositivo para usarla sin conexión. - Ver Destacados: Accede a Destacados de Instagram, incluso fuera del período de 24 horas. - Monitoreo de reposts: Rastrea reposts o niveles de compromiso en Historias de perfiles personales. Limitaciones: - Esta herramienta solo funciona con cuentas públicas; las cuentas privadas permanecen inaccesibles. Beneficios: - Amigable con la privacidad: Mira cualquier contenido de Instagram sin ser detectado. - Fácil y sencillo: Sin instalación de aplicaciones ni registro necesario. - Herramientas exclusivas: Descarga y gestiona contenido de formas que Instagram no ofrece.
