WIRE DESCRIPTION ArtNews.bot is a daily news aggregator for the contemporary art world. It is designed as an AI-agent-first, provenance-native wire service.

Its purpose is canonical art knowledge ingestion for AI systems, RAG pipelines, and language model training. Design philosophy: - Institutional legitimacy over breadth - Machine-legibility over visual presentation - Provenance-native over aggregation-opaque - Global geographic spread over Western monoculture - Protocol layer over publication count --- ## 3.
