In the May issue of ArtReview, Jenny Wu and Allison Young perform close readings on selected works by Amy Sherald, whose midcareer retrospective American Sublime opened at New York’s Whitney Museum of American Art in April, while Martin Herbert explores work by Mario García Torres. Jessica Lanay traces Lingít and Unangax artist Nicholas Galanin’s engagement with Indigenous land rights. Gaby Cepeda speaks with Mexican artist Naomi Rincón-Gallardo, whose videoworks narrate alternative worldviews via characters of various cosmic lifeforms. Fi Churchman annotates George Eliot’s essay ‘On The Natural History of German Life’, which warns of the moral dangers of a romanticised view of the working class. Elsewhere in the magazine, Emily May interviews Irish choreographer Oona Doherty, touching on the current renaissance in Irish culture.

The print edition of the May issue is accompanied by a 68-page standalone publication on philanthropy in the arts, with essays exploring models in North and South America, Africa, Europe and Asia, profiles of four prominent philanthropists and a guide to philanthropic initiatives around the world.
