The London roots of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection will be celebrated in a new exhibition in the UK capital.

Peggy Guggenheim in London: The Making of a Collector, which opens at the Royal Academy of Arts (RA) in November 2026, will examine her gallery Guggenheim Jeune which existed for a short while between January 1938 and June 1939, shaking up the London art scene.

It hosted more than 20 exhibitions, including the first UK solo show for Wassily Kandinsky, during the short time it was open and the RA will bring together work from those shows by artists including Eileen Agar, Salvador Dalí and Yves Tanguy.

Guggenheim's art collection is now held in the museum that bears her name in her former home on the Grand Canal in Venice.

Unseen images by legendary war photographer Lee Miller are going on show for the first time at Photo London today.

The British Vogue photojournalist took some of the pictures in 1944 during the battle for the French town of St Malo which resulted in Miller being briefly placed under house arrest by the US army for taking photographs when she was not authorised to.

The pictures, and others taken towards the end of the war in Germany, will be seen in today's VIP preview ahead of the main event which runs until Sunday at Somerset House.

Miller, who lived and worked with Man Ray in Paris before the war, was played by Kate Winslet in the 2023 bio-pic Lee.

The rights to the pioneering CryptoPunks NFTs have been bought in a reported $20 million deal by a new non-profit dedicated to digital art.

The Infinite Node Foundation, set up by Micky Malka and Becky Kleiner, said it was "committed to the preservation, study, and exhibition of digital art" and wants to "elevate the status of internet-native artworks".

The images of pixelated punks were among the earliest NFTs to gain popularity as the market in digital art enjoyed a boom that crashed as swiftly as it began.

Earlier this month, it was reported an investor recently lost almost $10 million selling a CryptoPunk NFT because of the drastic plunge in the value of NFTs.
