Nova Scotia ministers to meet with environmental racism panel: minister
HALIFAX – The minister of African Nova Scotian Affairs says she has read a report about environmental racism in her province, but she won't talk about what it says. Twila Grosse told reporters following a cabinet meeting the report was the responsibility of the Office of Anti-Racism. The government appointed an eight-member panel in June 2023 to study how racism affects a community's natural environment and it delivered its findings to cabinet last year. Grosse says a meeting will be scheduled soon with a group of ministers and the panel to discuss the findings, although a date hasn't been set. Last month, the minister responsible for the Office of Anti-Racism, Becky Druhan, declined to give any details about the report and wouldn't confirm whether she had read it. Wednesdays Columnist Jen Zoratti looks at what's next in arts, life and pop culture. Both the Opposition NDP and Liberals say the report should be released and say they are 'troubled' that the government is determined to remain tight-lipped about the report.

For ‘Choir,' Katharina Grosse Makes Art Basel Her Canvas
Summary Katharina Grossehas long been fixture atArt Basel, and this year her contribution is more than just a must-see — it's nearly impossible to miss. For the 2025 Messeplatz Project, the fair tapped the seminal German artist to transform the pavilion withCHOIR,her largest urban intervention to date. With an industrial spray gun in-hand, Grosse envelops the Herzog & de Meuron-designed space with sweeping blooms of magenta. The familiar architecture is disrupted and reimagined, as surfaces dissolve into vibrant fields of color. Curated by Natalia Grabowska of London's Serpentine, the work creates a fully immersive environment, recasting the venue into an artwork in its own right, drawing in excitement for all that awaits inside the exhibition hall. In Grosse's words,CHOIRexamines humanity's 'obsession with control' and 'desire for freedom,' likening the work to a polyphonic chorus — a collection of voices momentarily held together in shifting harmony. The paint-splashed surfaces act as a rupture in the otherwise tightly-run interior, inviting spontaneity, impermanence and a disruption of the everyday. A place and a moment at once,'CHOIRis transient and unrepeatable,' the artist wrote in a recentpost. 'It's as if a vast painting has flown through, landed briefly and left its residue behind. It belongs to everyone and no one.' The piece is now on view in Switzerland through June 22.
