The mystery French street artist known only as “Invader” has struck again – this time to celebrate the Paris Olympics. Invader, often compared to Bristol-born artist Banksy, has been gluing mosaics to Paris walls since the 1990s, usually at night and without permission. His works now dot all corners of the City of Light and his fans have a lot of fun hunting them down. Fans of his work can download the artist's app, "Flash Invaders," which lets users photograph his artworks and receive points for each discovery. The app has proven to be irresistibly addictive, with nearly 400,000 players. The ...

In his fourth consecutive artwork this week, anonymous Bristol-born street artist Banksy has just unveiled a howling wolf on top of a building in Peckham, south-east London. The stencilled silhouette of the wolf is painted onto a satellite dish, cleverly transforming it into a full moon. Banksy's animal-themed saga began on Monday 5 August. The artist presented the first work of the animal series near Kew Bridge in southwest London. The piece, created in his signature stencil style, depicts a goat with rocks tumbling below it. Following the first work, Banksy posted an image of another animal ...

In a rare instance of such a pairing, visitors to London can descend beneath the city’s financial centre to discover the ancient Roman temple of Mithras, found below the current site of Bloomberg’s European headquarters. Shedding fresh light on antiquity, the London Mithraeum Bloomberg SPACE regularly brings site-specific contemporary art commissions to the temple, encouraging artists to engage with and respond to the site’s rich archaeological history.

In April 2025, a herd of animals will travel from the Congo Basin in Central Africa to the northern tip of Norway - drawing attention to climate change. Forced out of their natural habitats due to global warming, they will be displaced and traversed through cities and urban environments to meet the people there. But they won't be real animals - they are puppets, made from recycled materials. This project comes from the team behind "The Walk" in 2021, where a giant 12-foot puppet of a refugee girl named Little Amal traveled through 15 countries, including Turkey, the UK, Ukraine, Mexico, and th...

The Royal Academy of Arts’ legendary summer exhibition is underway in London. From big name artists, like Tracey Emin, to new and emerging talent, more than 1,700 works are on display across 13 gallery spaces. The Royal Academy selects renowned artists like Emin as Royal Academicians, granting them membership in the historic institution. Currently, there are fewer than 100 Academicians, so each year, about two-thirds of the exhibited works are by non-members.

Curated by Michaela Seiser and Julia Staudach, Ra...
