This week's Guardian art roundup highlights the arrival of the Bayeux tapestry at the British Museum from 10 September, showcasing the medieval masterpiece's vivid depiction of battle, betrayal and everyday medieval life, alongside a National Gallery comparison with Francesco Pesellino's 15th-century painting The Story of David and Goliath. Other exhibitions featured include a retrospective of Colombian painter Emma Reyes at White Cube, recent Van Gogh-tinged works by Jimmy Wright, and Catherine Murphy's surrealist realism at Sadie Coles HQ, plus a textile-focused show at Manchester's Whitworth gallery linking traditions from India and Korea.

The digest also covers wider art news, including the theft of an Egyptian queen's 673-diamond necklace, the enduring controversy over Jackson Pollock's Blue Poles in Australia, the death of engineer Wilem Frischmann aged 95, and sculptor Maurizio Cattelan's forthcoming Berlin show featuring depictions of Hitler and a pope. It also profiles photographer Temi Adegbayibi, 26, whose music photography—rooted in shooting his cousin's band Ezra Collective—has been exhibited at the Royal Albert Hall.
