Archiving Gaza in the Present

The Power of Bearing Witness at a Time of War and Destruction

Whitney Biennial 2026

Transmission and Transformation

Approaching the Buddha

THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERThe renowned author returns with a timely book about his journeys to three sites of conflict - Dakar, South Carolina, and Palestine - exploring how the stories we tell, and the ones we don't, shape our realities. 'A politically-charged meditation on the power of stories' Guardian ***Ta-Nehisi Coates originally set out to write a book about writing, but soon found himself grappling with deeper questions about the destructive myths that shape our world. First we join Coates on his inaugural trip to Africa - a journey to Dakar, where he finds himself in two places at once: a modern city in Senegal and the ghost-haunted country of his imagination. He then takes readers to Columbia, South Carolina, where he reports on the banning of his own work and the deep roots of a false and fiercely protected American mythology - visibly on display in its segregationist statues. Finally in Palestine, Coates sees with devastating clarity the tragedy that grows in the clash between the stories we tell and reality on the ground. Written at a dramatic moment in American and global history, this work from one of our most important writers is about the urgent need to embrace the liberating power of even the most difficult truths. ***'An earnest and intimate exploration of locations of extreme injustice' Oprah Daily

The Message

An exploration of the rich creative influence of Italian Renaissance art on the designs of contemporary Italian fashion houses &nbsp; Successful Italian fashion houses such as Armani, Dolce &amp; Gabbana, and Versace are among the most high-profile and cutting-edge on the global fashion scene. Many of the innovative designs created by these and other major Italian houses draw on imagery from Italy’s rich cultural and artistic past. Weaving together insightful texts and vivid illustrations, this book explores the creative, cultural, and social dialogues between contemporary Italian fashion houses and the enduring legacy of Renaissance Italy. &nbsp; During the Renaissance, the Italian peninsula was dominated by powerful aristocratic families or “houses,” such as the Medici in Florence and the Sforza in Milan, whose members used fashion and art to communicate their power. Through essays by scholars and fashion industry professionals, including Luca Missoni of the House of Missoni and Stefania Ricci, director of the Ferragamo Museum, this book provides an insider look at the creative connections between Italian Renaissance “houses” and contemporary Italian fashion houses, and the design innovations that celebrate the vital legacy of Italian Renaissance imagery. Art directed by Luca Stoppini, former Vogue Italia creative director, this book features an inventive, oversize design reminiscent of Vogue magazine’s storied annual “September Issue,” conveying a gripping story about contemporary Italian fashion and enlivened with runway and art images, as well as original photography inspired by nostalgic glossy editorials. &nbsp; Distributed for the Cleveland Museum of Art &nbsp; Exhibition Schedule: &nbsp; Cleveland Museum of Art (November 9, 2025–February 1, 2026)

The Enduring Italian Houses

Renaissance to Runway

A comprehensive presentation of the Yale University Art Gallery's collection of Italian paintings from the thirteenth to the fifteenth century &nbsp; The collection of Italian paintings at the Yale University Art Gallery is one of the largest and richest in the world. The first of four volumes on the collection, this sumptuously illustrated book features over seventy-five works dating from 1230 to 1420 by artists such as Taddeo Gaddi, Andrea di Cione (better known as Orcagna), Lippo Memmi, Pietro and Ambrogio Lorenzetti, and Lorenzo Monaco. In addition to discussions of each painting's meaning, function, and significance, entries provide published references, provenance, full technical notes, and detailed conservation histories. An introduction by Laurence Kanter chronicles the history of the collection, from the James Jackson Jarves Collection that was assembled in the nineteenth century-the earliest formed collection of Italian paintings in any American museum-to more recent gifts by Louis and Hannah Rabinowitz and Richard Feigen. While many of the works are from Florence and Siena, the volume also includes examples from Bologna, Rimini, Venice, and more. Through its wide-ranging holdings, the Gallery's collection provides a remarkable sense of the diverse visual culture of the time. &nbsp; Distributed for the Yale University Art Gallery

The Valentine Gallery

Beyond the headlines of destruction and despair, discover the untold story of Gaza's humanity—its joys, resilience, and vibrant community spirit, as captured by a native son.
Israel’s brutal assault on Gaza has plunged more than two million Palestinians into a ceaseless cycle of violence and deprivation. Despite the outrage that Israel’s aggression has fanned, two opposing tropes about those who inhabit the Strip endure. For the minority backing Israel’s actions, the Palestinians of Gaza are often seen as little more than terrorists. For many on the other side, they are perpetual victims, powerless and tragic. Each characterization dehumanizes Gaza’s people.
In this book, Mohammed Omer Almoghayer, born and raised in southern Gaza, presents a necessary corrective: What the news reports have rarely shown are the ways in which, prior to Israel’s onslaught, the people of Gaza rose above their hardship to enjoy the simple pleasures of human existence. While in no way diminishing the horrors hurled at the Strip since October 7, or the prior suffering of those forced to live in what was effectively an open prison, Omer Almoghayer here tells that story.
On the Pleasures of Living in Gaza takes the reader on a tour of a most misunderstood and hidden territory, allowing us to discover the community spirit, the enduring family ties, the festivals and pastimes, and the creativity and resourcefulness of people, who, in lives now tragically lost, refused to surrender to hopelessness, snatching moments of joy in the most difficult of circumstances.
More than ever, it is vital that we recognize the humanity of people referred to by Israel’s defense minister as “animals,” and by news organizations around the world by bald numbers of nameless dead. With the sensitivity and insight available to a native Gazan, Mohammed Omer’s magnificent book parts the smoke and dust to show us the richness of a way of life Israel has now destroyed.

Israel’s relentless response to the October 7th&nbsp;murders on its southern border has turned Gaza yet again into a bloodbath, bringing unimaginable suffering to its inhabitants. There have always been two opposing tropes about those who inhabit the Strip: On the one hand, they are crazed terrorists. &nbsp;On the other, they are perpetual victims. Each characterization feeds a dehumanization of Gaza’s Palestinians.
While in no way diminishing the horrors that have been visited on the Strip in recent weeks, or the prior suffering of those forced to live in what was effectively an open prison, Mohammed Omer, born and raised in southern Gaza, here presents a necessary corrective: What the news reports have never shown are the ways in which, prior to Israel’s onslaught, the people of Gaza were able to rise above their hardship, to experience the simple joys of human existence despite the bombs and barbed-wire fences.
In these pages Omer takes the reader on a tour of this most misunderstood and hidden territory, allowing us to discover the community spirit, the enduring family ties, the festivals and recreations, and the creativity and resourcefulness of people, who, in lives now tragically lost, refused to surrender to the deprivations visited on them.
Now, more than ever, we need to recognize the humanity of people referred to by Israel’s defense minister as “animals”, and by news organizations around the world by numbers of nameless dead. With the sensitivity and compassion available to someone who comes from inside the community, Mohammed Omer’s magnificent book parts the smoke and dust to show us the extraordinary resilience of people whose lives war is now destroying.
