A Canadian artist has canceled his show, "Since 1957," which was due to open on May 2 in New York, over President Trump's annexation threats. "The United States is no longer a country that Canadians can trust, and I feel it would be unpleasant and wrong to mount a show in the U.S. at this time," Toronto-based Alan Belcher wrote on Facebook. Now, @ArtNews is wondering, is a cultural boycott brewing? This follows Canadian author Louise Penny's cancelation of the U.S. leg of her book tour.

Just been to the Deventer Charles Dickens museum - with authentic Miss Haverhsham diarama.
Despite there being no connection between the town and Dickens, they have an annual festival here where people dress as characters from the books. Upstairs in the museum is a massive room full of Victorian period costumes.
Entry to to the museum is €2. At the desk the elderly woman who started the museum and built up the collection of ephemera and Dickens junk welcomes you.

Now the data framework behind LUX has been made available to any cultural heritage institution worldwide seeking to make its collections more open to researchers and the public. '
