President Donald Trump's proposed sculpture garden of American Heroes - originally planned to open next year - may not be finished until 2029.

This Tuesday was the deadline for submissions for grants to make the 250 life-size statues of figures including Ray Charles, Ernest Hemingway and Whitney Houston but The Washington Post reported there were "major logistical challenges" to opening in time for July 2026 to mark the 250th anniversary of American independence.

A location has still not been announced for the garden and it was reported earlier this week only a handful of monuments might be ready by next year.

A White House spokesman said it was "working diligently with its partners on this project to ensure it’s finished during the President’s historic second term in office to be opened for public access".

The amount Tate's chair of trustees Roland Rudd told The Telegraph he would accept for selling naming rights to the Turbine Hall at London's Tate Modern.

It sounds like every art lover's dream - LUMA Arles is offering a handful of lucky visitors the chance to sleep for a night in Carsten Holler's immersive installation Dream Hotel Room #1.

The installation, designed with scientist Adam Haar, is in the French arts center's Frank Gehry-designed tower and includes "a gently swaying bed" that "simulates the sensation of flight" and a "mushroom sculpture" that flies above the bed.

The experience is part of the exhibition Misty Spires, formerly known as Dance with Daemons, which has been curated by Tino Sehgal. Sensibly, Maja Hoffmann’s art center changed the show’s title for its French iteration.

Would-be sleepers enter a draw for the chance to spend the night with one winner named every month through to October.

This David Bowie sketch for a proposed film that was never made is just one of more than 90,000 items collected together in the singer's archive at the V&A East Storehouse in London.

Around 200 exhibits will be on show at any one time in a series of rotating mini displays from Ziggy Stardust costumes to the Thierry Mugler suit he wore to his wedding in 1992.

The archive includes 414 costumes and accessories, almost 150 musical instruments and lyrics, posters, fan mail, scripts and tens of thousands of photographs, negatives and transparencies.

Visitors will be able to book to see five items each visit, with two weeks’ notice, using the V&A’s order-an-object service, though special appointments will have to be made to see some objects.

The David Bowie Centre opens at V&A East Storehouse on September 13. Entry is free.
