RIEP John Michael 'Ozzy' Osbourne. From Birmingham working class roots to fronting one of the world's biggest bands, creating a whole new genre in the process, Ozzy's place in popular music and culture is forever sealed. Sincere condolences to his family and friends. 📸 Sony
A moment in art where #womenartists caught a lucky break. My piece in @observer on the "White Rabbits" of art How the White Rabbits of Chicago’s World’s Columbian Exposition Sculpted a Lasting Legacy observer.com/2025/07/sculpt…
Creative giant Alan Yentob's last interview was with Jenny Saville. The full BBC programme was never produced but these 10 minutes alone are well worth watching, not least because she granted him rare access to her studio bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…
Loved reading about this care home's visit to Surreal Solihull, and the power of public art. "This visit provided so many benefits from gentle exercise and fresh air to stimulating conversation and a renewed sense of connection to the community." birminghamworld.uk/community/foun…

Every child deserves access to art history. So I loved visiting 'Workshop of the World' @ikongallery for this week's column. Young Birmingham artists have taken inspiration from the city's arts, crafts and famous fonts in an uplifting exhibition ✨️ ruthmillington.co.uk/workshop-ikon/
What a delight! A Wayne Thiebaud exhibition is coming to London @TheCourtauld 🍰 courtauld.ac.uk/whats-on/exh-w…
Birmingham's youngest artists have a brilliant new exhibition @ikongallery. Inspired by the city's arts and crafts heritage, they've experimented with printmaking, fonts, felt, metalwork, design and textiles in 'Workshop of the World' ✨️
From Salvador Dalí to Kiki Smith, countless artists have followed Alice into Wonderland. As the fantastical coming-of-age tale celebrates a milestone anniversary, what enduring—and revelatory—messages can we find in their retellings? trib.al/CHdhaXk
As Alice turns 160, which artists are still exploring Wonderland - and why? For @observer I fell down the rabbit hole, where human imagination reigns: observer.com/2025/07/art-al…
