From NOW OPEN! Taiba Akhuetie presents ‘The Tone: Taiba’s World of Hair’ 💫

The four day presentation marks ’s most expansive and intimate body of work to date, celebrating hair as sculpture, memory, movement, and cultural language.

Across a series of monumental installations, wearable artworks, moving image, and sculptural pieces created over the years, Taiba invites audiences into a world where hair becomes both material and metaphor. We caught up with Taiba to talk through the exhibition in more detail.

Visit us this weekend! Tickets via sarabandefoundation.org 🎟️

From L’Haitiana

Not just a jersey.
A love letter to Haiti.
Designed to give back.

Wear the Caribbean.
Wear it the Haitian way:
bold,
proud,
unbreakable.

Every hand stitch carries purpose:
to educate,
to empower,
to inspire change.

In 1804, we claimed independence with arms.
Today, independence is a conquest of education.
The true goal is won on a different field: Mentality.

The #26 on the back marks a year of rebirth.
52 years later, we celebrate Haiti shining again on football’s biggest stage.
It’s never too late to rise,
to lift our heads,
and make the impossible visible.

If your flag does not fly this season… stand anyway.

Stand for Haiti.
Stand for all who still hunger for the only revolution needed: PEACE.

Congratulations
From Brooklyn-based artist and 2026 UOVO Prize winner Keisha Scarville weaves together themes dealing with loss, latencies and the elusive body.

Her first-ever large-scale installations are now open on the Brooklyn Museum’s Iris Cantor Plaza and the facade of UOVO Brooklyn as part of the 2026 UOVO Prize. Her work features striking black-and-white photographs and still lifes. Many of which are part of the series “Mama’s Clothes,” featuring images overlaid onto garments belonging to the artist’s late mother, Alma.

In this clip from Brooklyn Talks: A Tribute to Seydou Keïta, Scarville discusses incorporating her mother’s fabrics, questioning what our bodies look like in grief, and how Keïta’s approach to posing helped shape her series, “Mama’s Clothes.”

Visit Keisha Scarville: Where Salt Meets Black Water now open to the public at the Brooklyn Museum and UOVO Brooklyn.

From The Supreme Court’s decision to gut the voting rights act this week was a blow to multiracial democracy. The question is not if, but when and how we will fight back.

From 60 years ago, Malcolm X gave America a choice: the ballot or the bullet. Today, as Republicans launch a coordinated assault on Black voting rights, his words feel less like history and more like prophecy.

From Mother’s Day was never about flowers.
In 1870, Julia Ward Howe created it as a global anti-war protest. A demand that mothers refuse to give their sons to war.
By 1914, politicians had stripped out the manifesto and kept the chocolates.
While mothers in Gaza, Sudan, Congo and Ukraine bury their children — it’s worth remembering what this day was actually for.

About Time...
From After years of wasteful cycles of fashion, causing enormous mountains of clothing in landfill and millions of tons of clothing being incinerated, the EU have banned the destruction of unsold clothing.
Famously Burberry were caught out burning clothes, perfumes and accessories to the tune of £28.6m in 2018, and H&M also has a gigantic inventory issue. Returns are also another problem in the system with them very rarely being remerchandised and resold, and are more likely to be wasted instead.
Let’s hope this change creates more thoughtful production and better end of life systems to recirculate waste.
