leAD  MEXICO CITY. Mexico and Austria have moved a step closer to sharing Moctezuma's Crown as Austria seriously considers returning the feathered headdress on loan for three years. It would mean that for the first time in 500 years the headdress returns to Mexico. The Mexican government is even discussing a change in its antiquities law to make the loan possible.

video  Following a frantic week of exhibiting at the Armory Show in New York, artists, galleries and dealers are in good spirits.There would appear to be a return to the days of good visitor numbers and encouraging sales. As the 13th Armory Show comes to a close we catch up with a cross section of exhibitors to measure the mood.

For six weeks the 33rd floor of 1500 Broadway has been transformed into two open plan urban loft exhibitions, The Shape We're In (New York) and Proposal for a Floor.

exhibitions  new york. "A lot of my work has been about the promise of American democracy and its failures, and trying to navigate between those two points," says New York artist Glenn Ligon, whose mid-career retrospective opens at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
