'Titanic' door prop that saved Rose (sorry, Jack) sells for $718,750

An undated photo provided by Heritage Auctions shows a wood panel that resembles a famous piece of debris salvaged from the Titanic in 1912, sold at auction for $718,750 and part of a trove of memorabilia from Planet Hollywood. The prop “bears a striking resemblance,” Heritage Auctions said, to a panel from the Titanic housed at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic in Halifax, Nova Scotia. (Heritage Auctions via The New York Times)

NEW YORK, NY.- At the end of the movie “Titanic,” Rose floats atop an ornately decorated piece of a door frame as her beloved Jack clings to its edge, holding her hand. A rescue boat finally arrives, but in time only for Rose, who promises to “never let go” of Jack as she frees herself from his icy grip and he slips below the surface of the Atlantic. In reality, the ocean was a tank that held 17 million gallons of water. And the door frame? Balsa wood. The wood panel sold at auction for $718,750 on Saturday, part of a trove of memorabilia from Planet Hollywood. About 1,600 items, including the whip from “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,” a bowling ball from “Kingpin” and the ax from “The Shining,” brought in $15.7 million, according to Heritage Auctions, the auction house that handled the sales. Heritage Auctions said in a statement that the event “shattered expectations” and set a record for the company’s auctions of movie props a ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- Richard Serra, who set out to become a painter but instead became one of his era’s greatest sculptors, inventing a monumental environment of immense tilting corridors, ellipses and spirals of steel that gave the medium both a new abstract grandeur and a new physical intimacy, died Tuesday at his home in Orient, New York, on the North Fork of Long Island. He was 85. ... More

Filmmaker draws censors' wrath: 'A Price I Have to Accept'   Inside the Garrick, the elite men-only London club rocked by criticism   Is humanity out of fashion?


The Chinese filmmaker Wang Xiaoshuai in Lewisham, London on March 15, 2024. The creative talent in China’s film industry is struggling under tightening censorship. The suffocating restrictions remind veterans like Wang of the harsher days when the Communist Party more strictly controlled speech and artistic expression. (Olivia Lifungula/The New York Times)

NEW YORK, NY.- China’s film industry was operating under a planned economy when Wang Xiaoshuai graduated from Beijing Film Academy in 1989. Only a few studios, all state-owned, were allowed to make movies. Eager to start careers as filmmakers, Wang and some friends scraped together about $6,000, borrowed a camera and ... More

LONDON.- On a side street in Covent Garden stands an imposing palazzo-style building, strangely out of place amid the burger joints and neon marquees of London’s theater district. It houses the Garrick Club, one of Britain’s oldest men’s clubs, and on any given weekday, a lunch table in its baronial dining room is one of the hottest tickets in town. A visitor lucky enough to cadge an invitation from a member might end up in the company of a Supreme Court justice, the ... More

NEW YORK, NY.- Ever since news broke last week that Pierpaolo Piccioli, the designer of Valentino, was leaving the brand, paeans to his talent have been flowing on both social and fashion media. But of all the words used to describe Piccioli’s work — its “genius” and “magic” and “vision,” its “dreaminess” and “beauty” — the one that most stands out to me is “humanity.” Not because of the looming threat of artificial intelligence, and whatever that means when it comes to clothes, but because Piccioli ...

A director brings TikTok's chaotic vibe to the big screen
NEW YORK, NY.- Halfway through a recent Zoom interview with Radu Jude, the acclaimed Romanian director of “Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World,” he offered a glimpse into his creative process. He pulled out one of the books he’s reading, an illustrated tome about commedia dell’arte. Then he shared his screen to reveal a collection of texts and images — Van Gogh still lifes, Alberto Giacometti sculptures, Japanese haikus — saved in folders on his computer. Jude stopped scrolling at a picture he took of a sign posted on an apartment building entrance. “It says ‘Please have oral sex so as not to disturb the other tenants,’” Jude explained, translating from the Romanian with a grin on his face. The autodidact Jude is not above a dirty joke. His work melds tragedy and farce, drawing promiscuously from art, literature, street ... More

Aurora tourism in Iceland: You can seek, but you may not find
NEW YORK, NY.- From the outside, it may seem like the northern lights dance across Iceland’s skies each night. On Icelandair ads, planes fly across shimmering curtains in the sky. On social media, travelers gaze at the green bands above them. The lights are even on some recycling bins in Reykjavík, the capital: “Keep Iceland Clean.” In the past decade or so, an aurora borealis industrial complex has boomed in Iceland. Many rent a car and go out on their own, but there are northern lights big bus tours and northern lights minibus tours and northern lights Super Jeep tours. There are private guides and boat cruises. There’s an observatory base camp. There’s even a museum. But the lights can be elusive. “Tourists sometimes expect, like, ‘At what time do you turn them on?’” said Björn Saevar Einarsson, a forecaster at Iceland’s ... More

"Pino Pascali" opens exhibition at Fondazione Prada
MILAN.- The extensive retrospective dedicated to Italian artist Pino Pascali, curated by Mark Godfrey, will be on view at Fondazione Prada’s Milan venue from tomorrow, 28 March, until 23 September 2024.

The set design, conceived by 2x4, includes forty-nine works by Pino Pascali from Italian and international museums and distinguished private collections; nine artworks by prominent post-war ... More

Marjorie Perloff, leading scholar of avant-garde poetry, dies at 92
NEW YORK, NY.- Marjorie Perloff, whose incisive, at times idiosyncratic readings of avant-garde artists including Ezra Pound, John Cage and John Ashbery made her one of the world’s leading scholars of contemporary poetry, died Sunday at her home in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles. She was 92. Her daughters, Carey and Nancy Perloff, confirmed the death. Perloff, who spent the latter part of her career at Stanford University, made her name as a forceful advocate for experimental poetry, reaching back to early 20th-century writers including Pound and Gertrude Stein and embracing more recent movements such as Language poetry and conceptual poetry. Such work is sometimes dismissed as intentionally difficult, but Perloff managed to parse and explain it in clear, jargon-free books and essays for both academic ... More

Governors Island taps new head curator
NEW YORK, NY.- The Trust for Governors Island announced Tuesday that it has appointed Lauren Haynes as the new head curator and vice president of arts and culture for the 172-acre island, situated in New York Harbor with ringside views of the Statue of Liberty, lower Manhattan and the Brooklyn waterfront. “We have big ambitions for the arts program here, which is to be New York’s preeminent public art destination,” said Clare Newman, president and CEO of the Trust, a nonprofit organization created by the city to develop and operate the island as a recreational and cultural resource. “Lauren is very good at bringing emerging voices and underrepresented artists to the forefront and shares our ideas about growing the public art program significantly,” said Newman, who tapped Haynes, most recently the director of curatorial ...

On a day like today, Italian painter and architect Raphael was born
March 28, 1483. Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino (March 28 or April 6, 1483 - April 6, 1520), known as Raphael, was an Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance. His work is admired for its clarity of form, ease of composition, and visual achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur. Together with Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, he forms the traditional trinity of great masters of that period.
