‘High art’ with human skull goes on display at museum

February 4, 2017 by

PITTSBURGH (AP) — He’s got one second - maybe two - to save himself. All his training, all his life’s experience and skill will be tested in this one moment. It’s to be, or not to be - frozen for 150 years in a diorama popularly known as “Arab Courier Attacked by Lions.” That it’s a lion, mid-lunge, that’s upon him. that his camel mount is going down. that he’s got nothing but a dagger to defend himself. those are the exotic details. He is us. We sense it. “The visual drama is stopping you in your tracks,” says Erin Peters, assistant curator of science and research at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. The courier’s uncertain fate has transfixed generations of Pittsburghers. He transfixed New Yorkers before that. He made the throngs pause in 1876 Philadelphia at the Centennial Exposition, and in Paris at the Exposition Universelle of 1867. The world comes after us all. Of course we’re safe from actual … [Read more...] about ‘High art’ with human skull goes on display at museum

Queenstown: Single New Zealand town makes ‘most beautiful cities’ list

November 8, 2019 by

OPINION: Queenstown's a stunner but if you're looking for an urban centre that's truly world-class in the beauty stakes you can't go past Paris, New York and London - in that order.  At least that seems to be the consensus of the more than 1000 travel writers, bloggers and agencies around the globe who helped compile travel site Flight Network's World's 50 Most Beautiful Cities list.  Queenstown's town status didn't prevent it from being the only New Zealand destination to feature at number 38, with the tourism hot spot scoring points for its "insane scenery" but losing out to cities in Europe, the United States, Canada, South Africa, Asia, South America, the Middle East and Australia.  Paris was named the world's most beautiful city, with Dennis Lennox, a travel columnist with The Christian Post, reasoning "It's Paris!!! Enough said."

America’s Humanitarian Architect

December 22, 2017 by

It’s just before 9 a.m. on an overcast February morning. About 60 fifth graders at a Harlem charter school have just filed into a multipurpose room to hear architect Phil Freelon talk about his career-defining work on the National Museum of African American History and Culture, or NMAAHC, in Washington, D.C., the universally celebrated newest addition to the Smithsonian Institution. But before he gets to his lesson about the design—a brilliant, bronze-hued building that alights the Mall like a shining crown—he warms up the crowd by letting them in on a secret: He once played drums in a band with his brother, Gregory Freelon, a teacher at the school. The room’s energy perks up as students whisper; Phil has instantly connected to each of them. Now it’s time for the meatier part of his talk. advertisement advertisement Eager hands shoot into the air. “Art is a subject of creativity,” a boy says. “It’s expressing … [Read more...] about America’s Humanitarian Architect

Dark Tourism

December 9, 2019 by

In a previous article, I briefly examined ‘disaster tourism’, a form of ‘dark tourism’ and 'niche tourism'. Since writing that article I came across an interesting book chapter by the Slovenian researcher Dr. Lea Kuznik entitled ‘Fifty shades of dark stories’ examining the many motivations for engaging in the seedier side of tourism. Dark tourism is something that I have been guilty of myself. For instance, as a Beatles fanatic, when I first went to New York, I went to the Dakota apartments where John Lennon had been shot by Mark David Chapman. In her chapter, Dr. Kuznik notes that: “Dark tourism is a special type of tourism, which involves visits to tourist attractions and destinations that are associated with death, suffering, disasters and tragedies venues. Visiting dark tourist destinations in the world is the phenomenon of the twenty-first century, but also has a very long heritage. Number of visitors of war areas, … [Read more...] about Dark Tourism

Rihanna Still Flirting With the Wrong Men

March 27, 2009 by

Rihanna is bouncing back, and she (and her new handgun tattoo) is hanging out with Brody Jenner. She and the Bromancer were flirting across tables at Nobu until she joined Jenner’s group after their meal, bodyguard in tow. Julia Roberts dined at Freemans while newly single Agyness Deyn sat a few tables away with “an attractive hipster.” Sam Waterson lunched by himself, reading over a script at Il Bastardo, where The City’s pretty playboy Adam “works.” Jessica Alba, Cash Warren, Milla Jovovich, Veronica Webb, and Tinsley Mortimer partied at last night’s Winter Dance Benefit for the American Museum of Natural History. After logging a 22 percent increase in local viewers last month, Katie Couric will be honored with the Governor’s Award at Sunday’s local New York Emmys, though she refuses to take credit for her success. And speaking of modesty, Kanye says he wants to change his name to Martin Louis the King Jr. to embody MLK Jr., … [Read more...] about Rihanna Still Flirting With the Wrong Men
