A concrete sculpture of a deer saved from invading Russian forces will be installed in Venice as Ukraine's exhibition for this year's Biennale.

The work by Zhanna Kadyrova, called The Origami Deer, was installed seven years ago in the city of Pokrovsk, in the Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine, but was rescued in 2024 as Russian troops closed in.

The team behind the pavilion said the sculpture will be shown "in a suspended state, unable to be permanently installed, reflecting the uncertainty familiar to Ukrainians today" while a video installation will document its journey across Europe.

In a statement posted on Instagram, they said it "addresses the issue of unfulfilled security guarantees, in exchange for which Ukraine relinquished its nuclear arsenal 30 years ago. The project reflects on the fragility of peace and the resilience of the Ukrainian people."

The number of members of the public who gave money to the British Museum's $4.78 million fundraiser to acquire a 24-karat-gold Tudor heart pendant dug up in a field in England in 2019. Experts believe it may have been made to mark a tournament held in honor of the daughter of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon, Princess Mary.

Treasures from a major collection of Mexican art are going on show in the country for the first time in almost 20 years.

The works from the Gelman collection, including major pieces by Frida Kahlo, Rufino Tamayo and Diego Rivera, were bought by Jacques and Natasha Gelman who were major players in the golden age of Mexican cinema.

Their will said it should be displayed as a whole in a private institution in Mexico but that never happened and much of the collection has not been seen since 2008 when it was held by a private foundation until this year when it turned up in Spain after banking giant Santander signed a deal for its "long-term management".

The show at Mexico City's museum of modern art, MAM, will include 68 works and opens next Tuesday until May 17.

Mexican Secretary of Culture Claudia Curiel de Icaza said the show was " the result of months of work with the Gelman Santander Collection" and would allow "new generations... access to fundamental works of modern Mexican art 20 years after its last exhibition".
