Kezban Arca Batıbeki / Contemporary Istanbul

Payetli elbiseler, eski aile fotoğrafları, fotoromanlar... bütün bu nostaljik nesneler Kezban Arca Batıbeki'nin eserlerinde önemli rol oynuyor. Kitsch ve pop kavramlarının bir arada kullanan bir de eski dönem kadınlarını ele alan sanatçı "yaklaşan tehlike" temasını sıkça ele alıyor. Bu resimdeki tehlike arkadan sinsi sinsi yaklaşan topuklu kadından daha derindir diye düşünüyorum. 24-27 Kasım arasında gerçekleşecek Contemporary Istanbul'da Batıbeki'nin de işlerini görebilirsiniz.

Feist's new album: Metals

Feist's "Metals" seems very organic and the songs keep the softness of previous album. My favorite one is "How come you never go there". Here there is a little part... You can also discover other songs in this website: http://www.listentofeist.com

Melancholia

Lars von Trier, son filmi Melancholia'da Wagnervari bir Alman romantizminin dipsiz kuyularına davet ediyor. Davet eden o olunca, bir de işin içinde dipsiz kuyu varsa, oyuncular da Kirsten Dunst ve Charlotte Gainsbourg'sa teklifi geri çevirmek imkânsızlaşıyor. Kendi de bir melankolik olan Lars von Trier'in, dünyanın sonuna dair masalsı filmini sabırsızlıkla bekliyorum.
