Good morning: Is the creative economy recovering? The Atlantic magazine reported this week it is now profitable and will return to publishing monthly in print. On the other hand, California music festivals saw a big downturn this summer. On the other other hand, one music industry expert forecast this week a doubling of streaming revenue for music by 2030, just six years from now. The trends right now are very mixed. Here are a few more highlights from the past week: Paris To Spend $55 Million Greening The Spaces Around Notre-Dame Cathedral “The project will create roughly 20,000 square feet of green space with 160 new trees, adapting the cathedral’s underground parking garage into a visitor center, a new riverfront promenade, and a viewing platform overlooking the Seine and the Ile Saint-Louis.” – AP The Pompidou’s Controversial Renovation Plans “The renovation plan and the closure it entails has not received much support within the art world.” – Apollo National Gallery In London Bans Almost All Liquids From Premises “For this, we can thank the climate-protesting art vandals, who launched the practice of vandalizing art for the sake of slowing climate change two years ago: they threw tomato soup at a van Gogh and glued themselves to the adjacent wall.” – The Guardian Reviving an Opera House: The Phoenix Rises in Milan “After being nearly destroyed by a catastrophic event, the historic Milan Opera House is set to reopen with a revamped design that incorporates cutting-edge sound technology and a renewed focus on accessibility.” – La Repubblica Innovative Art Installations Transform Urban Landscapes “Cities around the globe are finding that investing in large-scale public art projects has an unexpected bonus: besides beautifying the environment, these artworks are stimulating local economies and reviving neglected neighborhoods.” – The Art Newspaper As usual, skip down to see all the stories we collected this week.
