(Amir Hamja/The New York Times) NEW YORK, NY.- As an architect, Ivan Rupnik thinks the solution to America’s affordable housing shortage is obvious: Build more houses. Start today.

More Head Hand Foot by Casey McCafferty More News 'Queenie' captures Black British womanhood, in its mess and glory LONDON.- In 2022, British television producers released an open casting call, looking for a Black full-figured woman, age 22 to 30, with a London accent. Thousands of people sent in audition tapes, hoping to land the role of Queenie Jenkins, whom many in Britain already knew as the titular character in Candice Carty-Williams’ bestselling debut novel. Carty-Williams, who was also the TV adaptation’s showrunner, knew that she was looking for an actress who could convey Queenie’s introspection. Dionne Brown — whom she had met during auditions for another show — had the right temperament. “Dionne is constantly thinking in a way that Queenie is,” Carty-Williams said. “You see her standing there and her head is whirring — that was important to me.” “Queenie,” streaming on Hulu, is a coming-of-age story about a 25-year-old Londoner ... More Pride Month 2024: An abundance of theater of all stripes NEW YORK, NY.- American theater has long been more welcoming to queer lives and stories than Hollywood has been, so the abundance of shows during Pride Month is unsurprising. It’s also overwhelming — there is just so much to see. On Broadway, queer characters play central roles in productions as starkly different as “Illinoise,” a dance-theater work based on a Sufjan Stevens album, and Paula Vogel’s autofictional “Mother Play,” starring Jessica Lange. In the Max Martin jukebox “& Juliet,” a romance involving Juliet’s nonbinary best friend makes up a sweet subplot. And of course, the gayest show of the year returns June 26, when Cole Escola’s madcap comedy “Oh, Mary!” — about Mary Todd Lincoln’s secret life and aspirations — begins previews on Broadway after a popular run at the Lucille Lortel Theater. As Joshua ... More 36 hours in Porto, Portugal NEW YORK, NY.- First Lisbon; now Porto. The whole world seems to have fallen in love lately with the nearby beaches, old churches, seafood-heavy cuisine and historical UNESCO-listed streets of Portugal’s second-largest city, where the number of tourists has doubled in a decade. (The circuslike atmosphere along the Douro riverfront and outside Livraria Lello, a neo-Gothic 19th-century bookstore, are only the most obvious signs.) And the home of port wine is keeping pace with a slew of new offerings. Recent years have seen the opening, upgrading or expansion of museums, art centers, food markets, food halls and hotels aplenty — along with the inauguration of World of Wine, a dining and entertainment district. Gazing at the bridges and passing ships on the Douro River is a favorite Porto pastime. For sublime views far from the dense ...

There are more than 120 such designs in the theatre collection of the Allard Pierson Museum. Over 400 more designs were found in Herman Gordijn’s estate. A small proportion of which are on display here. Over the course of nine years, from 1960 to 1969, Gordijn designed ... More Eye Filmmuseum the first exhibition in the Netherlands of works by Albert Serra AMSTERDAM.- Eye Filmmuseum presents Albert Serra – Liberté, the first exhibition in the Netherlands about the work of Catalan film and theatre director Albert Serra. For the occasion, the artist transformed the entire exhibition space into an immersive set full of nocturnal, clandestine encounters that bring together theatre, film and exhibition. This new installation is based on Liberté, a noticable play about libertines that he staged at the Volksbühne in Berlin in 2018 and adapted into a film a year later. The exhibition at Eye is a disorientating experience that unites elements from the theatre and cinema. Visitors wander around a nocturnal woodland setting that puts the imagination on edge. The decor calls to mind a mix of the flowery landscapes of the rococo painters Jean-Honoré Fragonard and François Boucher with a post-industrial ...

Jean Désiré Gustave Courbet (10 June 1819 - 31 December 1877) was a French painter who led the Realism movement in 19th-century French painting. Committed to painting only what he could see, he rejected academic convention and the Romanticism of the previous generation of visual artists.
