Germany is returning a painting by Friedrich von Amerling to its rightful owners. The work, "Portrait of a Young Man," is to be restituted to the heirs of the Jewish antiquarian and art dealer Jacques Rosenthal and his wife Emma, as announced by the Bavarian State Painting Collections in Munich.
The 2026 Film London Jarman Award shortlist invites us to step back, look again and change our point of view. The shortlisted artists present work that is brave, poetic and uniquely experimental in its approach. Storytelling, family relationships and oral histories intertwine with home movies, archival footage and abstract images in works that explore migration, identity, and intergenerational trauma.
A total of £1.6 million, formed of £800,000 from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport and £800,000 matched by arts access charity Art Explora, will be used to build a state-of-the-art vehicle and tour three national collections per year, including the Government Art Collection (GAC).
