All in THE ARTS
The Rotunda at the Guggenheim Museum in Manhattan is perhaps the perfect place for a retrospective because it is, by design, cyclical; one can see backward or forward from any vantage point. Add to that the space’s airy curves, linear columns, barely- there inclines and the gentle shadows cast by low walls and it’s a most fitting medium to showcase the work of Agnes Martin, an artist who, over a career spanning more than five decades, honed and refined her practice of studied abstractions and strikingly stark minimalist pieces.
Joan Didion is as well-known and loved for her laconic, soulful writing as she is for her perfectly pared-down style, and her packing list, which she published in her 1979 book The White Album, shows that with a well-planned outline of her travel wardrobe, style is second nature.
Prefer an evening at an indie cinema over binge-playing World Of Warcraft in a poorly ventilated basement? Now, thanks to a student project at NYU’s Gaming Center, even Wes Anderson fans have a reason to want to forego daylight and an eight-hour sleep cycle to play Maquisard, a video game inspired by The Grand Budapest Hotel.
