A lost panel from Jacob Lawrence’s Struggle series has been found after being missing for 60 years. A visitor to the exhibition ‘Jacob: Lawrence: The American Struggle’, currently at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, thought that the missing panel (one of five that have been lost) might have been hanging for years in the home of her neighbours and encouraged them to contact the museum. The neighbours, who wish to remain anonymous, contacted the Met and, after being authenticated, the painting – which depicts Shays’ Rebellion – is now part of the exhibition.
In a city known for spectacle, Soul Kitchen in Business Bay stands out by doing the opposite. It whispers instead of shouting. Tucked away from the obvious hotspots, the restaurant has become a quiet cultural landmark — a space where food, art, and identity move together in harmony.
