The Week in Art

From breaking news and insider insights to exhibitions and events around the world, the team at The Art Newspaper picks apart the art world’s big stories with the help of special guests. An award-winning podcast hosted by Ben Luke.

This week: ecocide in Brazil. In a special in-depth interview marking a retrospective at Fondazione MAST (until 29 September) in Bologna, Italy, and an exhibition at the Jack Shainman Gallery (until 15 May) in New York, the artist Richard Mosse discusses his photographs and forthcoming film installation picturing the scale of the destruction of the Amazonian rainforest.

Mosse also talks about his earlier photographic and film series on the themes of war, displacement and migration.
