Daily Inspiration
The Certainty Trap
The willingness to actually listen to others and to display your ignorance in a world full of know-it-alls is a bold move that now has a name-intellectual humility. It's not only a developable skill, much needed today, it could just end the culture wars.

The School Recommends
Remedios Varo: Artist of the Week
Varo creates fantastical landscapes featuring meticulous motifs drawn from her strict Catholic upbringing, expansive knowledge of the sciences, and her passion for alchemy and the occult.
A part of the surrealist movement, the Spanish-born artist creates intricate images using both traditional painting techniques and inspiration drawn from magical practices. She includes palettes referencing alchemical reactions for the elixir of life and often depicts female figures performing acts of magic. It is as if she is an alchemist herself, combining and balancing delicate symbols on her canvas; the whimsical quality of which earns her the nickname of one of the "three witches" in Mexico City, where she based the majority of her creative career.
Surrealism and the East - Painting the Essential: Exhibition of the Week
Collaborative exhibition between West Bund Museum, Shanghai Museum, and the Centre Pompidou in France
Painting the Essential discusses one of the most important movements in 20th century art, Surrealism, in the light of the oriental influences that inspired it. Contrary to many other exhibitions that address cultural influences overwhelmingly from the perspective of only one culture, here, the Pompidou’s surrealist masterpieces appear alongside the Shanghai Museum’s collection of Qing Dynasty works, each entering into dialogue with each other and with the audience too.
