President Donald Trump said Iran appears to be looking to negotiate with the U.S. amid a growing military buildup in the Middle East.
In a Monday interview with Axios, Trump suggested that Tehran had reached out on «numerous occasions» and «want[s] to make a deal.»
«They want to make a deal. I know so. They called on numerous occasions. They want to talk,» the president told the outlet.
According to U.S. officials, also cited by Axios, any potential agreement would need Tehran to remove all enriched uranium, cap its long-range missile stockpile, a change in support for regional proxy forces, and cease independent uranium enrichment, terms Iranian leaders have not agreed to.

Trump also described the situation with Iran as «in flux,» and pointed to the arrival of what he called «a big armada next to Iran. Bigger than Venezuela,» referencing the recent deployment of U.S. naval assets.
As previously reported by Fox News Digital, the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier entered CENTCOM waters in the Indian Ocean on Monday amid increasing threats from Iran, a senior U.S. official said.

Trump had told reporters Jan. 21, «We have a big flotilla going in that direction, and we’ll see what happens. We have a big force going towards Iran. I’d rather not see anything happen, but we’re watching them very closely.»
The U.S. military buildup comes amid widespread unrest inside Iran following protests that began Dec. 28.

Schumer knocks Trump on Iran, plan to send ICE to airports: ‘Asking for trouble’

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., condemned President Donald Trump’s plan to deploy U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to U.S. airports on Sunday.
Schumer made the comments while speaking on the Senate floor Sunday, saying Trump’s decision is «impulsive» and could make the situation at airports worse.
«Today, Donald Trump and [Tom] Homan are saying they will deploy ICE agents to airports starting on Monday. This is really disturbing. ICE agents who are untrained and have caused problems everywhere they’ve gone lurking at our airports. That’s asking for trouble, and it will certainly make the chaos at the airports even worse,» Schumer said.
«No one has any faith in ICE agents. They haven’t received training. They don’t know what it is to be a TSA person and do what you need to do,» he continued. «And the real problem here is they have no plan for using these ICE agents. Trump says, send them there. They send them there. And Homan says they’re still drawing up plans with less than a day’s notice. What is this? We know what it is. It’s another impulsive action by Donald Trump.»

«Some idea pops into his head and he announces it. And then the people working for him, a few of whom do have some degree of talent and ability. Not many underlings. They have to rush to try and implement what they know is an idiotic plan,» he said.
The ICE deployment is Trump’s latest move in the battle with Democrats over funding for the Department of Homeland Security.
Schumer also used his time on the Senate floor Sunday to criticize Trump’s actions in Iran.
«Donald Trump said, ‘you know, I may have a plan or I may not for a war,’» Schumer said. «There’s people’s lives are at stake. Billions are being spent on an almost daily basis. And he says, you know, ‘I may have a plan or I may not.’ These are the words of the commander in chief in the middle of a war involving one of the most dangerous regimes on Earth. ‘I have a plan, or I may not.’»
«That’s unhinged and dangerous. Lives are on the line. The president says he may not even have a plan. Tens of billions are being wasted. No plan. Troops being killed and injured, no plan. Civilians being killed and injured. No plan. Gasoline costs $3.94 a gallon on average. And Trump, ‘I have no plan’,» Schumer said.
Meanwhile, Schumer and his allies have refused to approve DHS funding without reforms to immigration enforcement.
TSA agents across the country have gone more than a month without a paycheck, with no clear end in sight.

Trump first threatened to deploy ICE to airports on Saturday, demanding that Democrats «immediately sign an agreement» to fund DHS.

«On Monday, ICE will be going to airports to help our wonderful TSA Agents who have stayed on the job despite the fact that the Radical Left Democrats, who are only focused on protecting hard-line criminals who have entered our Country illegally, are endangering the USA by holding back the money that was long ago agreed to with signed and sealed contracts, and all,» Trump wrote Sunday on Truth Social.

Trump also predicted blowback from Democrats, saying they would complain «no matter how great a job ICE does.»

Eugenio Dittborn muestra sus enigmáticas pinturas aeropostales en el Bellas Artes

Eugenio Dittborn, figura central del arte contemporáneo en Chile, presenta por primera vez en la Argentina una muestra individual que reúne obras de distintas etapas de su carrera y expone su particular abordaje conceptual sobre la representación y circulación de las imágenes.
A diferencia de muestras retrospectivas convencionales, Historias del rostro, en el Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, con curaduría de Justo Pastor Mellado, presenta solo dos piezas principales y un conjunto de documentos históricos fundamentales dentro del recorrido del artista. Este enfoque, según detalló Mellado, busca demostrar “la potencia conceptual del universo creativo” de Dittborn, utilizando recursos mínimos pero de gran densidad visual y simbólica.
La obra destacada de esta exposición, según Mellado, es “XXII Historia del rostro”, una pintura aeropostal realizada en 1998 que condensa veinte retratos impresos, conformando lo que el curador describe como “una pequeña enciclopedia de la representación del rostro”.

En la pieza convergen dibujos infantiles, caricaturas, retratos hablados, imágenes de personas con afecciones mentales, fichas de identificación policial y fotografías de pobladores originarios tomadas de un álbum etnográfico.
Esta obra, además de su contenido visual, integra el procedimiento singular que distingue al artista desde los años ochenta: la pintura se pliega, se envía en un sobre a diferentes destinos internacionales y se exhibe junto con su envoltura, cuestionando los sistemas tradicionales de circulación y legitimación de las obras de arte.
Las pinturas aeropostales constituyen una estrategia desarrollada por Dittborn a inicios de la década de 1980. A través de este formato, el artista no solo introduce métodos de experimentación gráfica y crítica visual, sino que también propone un sistema alternativo de circulación que desafía la noción de obra única y su permanencia física en el espacio expositivo. Cada pintura, compuesta por iconografías e inscripciones heterogéneas, es doblada y enviada físicamente a distintos países, donde se despliega temporalmente junto al sobre que la contiene.

La otra producción principal de la muestra, creada en 2022, es “Todas las caras del rostro”, que reúne diez dibujos en carboncillo sobre sudarios. Mellado describe que estos rostros aparecen “con sus cuencas vacías, mostrándonos con descaro sus dientes apretados, sus cráneos pelados o adornados con rizos, sus narices puntiagudas dispuestas sobre patrones de damero vistos en escorzo, combinando tramas que delatan la textura de la tela”. De este modo, la obra dialoga directamente con los materiales y gestos gráficos constitutivos de la trayectoria de Dittborn.
El recorrido de la exposición se completa con dos publicaciones producidas por Eugenio Dittborn entre 1976 y 1979, que según el director del Bellas Artes, Andrés Duprat, “se convirtieron en acontecimientos de la historia editorial y visual chilena”. Para Duprat, el gran mérito de la curaduría radica en que, mediante una selección precisa y acotada, se “logra reactualizar la escena de origen del artista, y subraya la persistencia de la línea como principio organizador de su práctica”.

Eugenio Dittborn nació en Santiago de Chile en 1943 y cuenta con obras en instituciones internacionales de relevancia. Esta exposición en el Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, que cuenta con el apoyo del Centro Cultural Matta de la Embajada de Chile, constituye la primera oportunidad de observar de cerca algunos de los núcleos conceptuales y formales de su producción, a partir de piezas que exploran tanto la representación del rostro como los circuitos que permiten a la imagen persistir y desplazarse en el tiempo y el espacio.
*“Eugenio Dittborn. Historias del rostro” podrá visitarse hasta el 31 de mayo en la sala 33 del primer piso del Museo, de martes a viernes, de 11 a 19.30 (último ingreso), y los sábados y domingos, de 10 a 19.30.
