In James Gunn’s “Superman,” the titular hero (David Corenswet) is joined by an astonishing number of friends and foes. There’s Krypto, the hyper-active dog that aids him in taking down enemies, and Clark Kent’s coworkers at the Daily Planet, who help him expose Lex Luthor’s (Nicholas Hoult) ties to the illegal invasion of the fictional country Jarhanpur. Instead of feeling bloated, each character is given a chance to shine; but nobody comes out on top like Mr. Terrific (Edi Gathegi). The actor is no stranger to Hollywood blockbusters, or the superhero genre. Back in 2008, Gathegi starred in “Twilight” alongside…

American artist Raymond Saunders, who created abstract multimedia paintings focused on sociopolitical issues, has died at 90. His death was confirmed by a joint statement on Instagram posted by his two representing galleries, Andrew Kreps Gallery and David Zwirner.Saunders’s body of work is characterized by his use of collage, through which he incorporated found text into large-scale gestural and calligraphic abstractions, often set against a black ground reminiscent of a blackboard. His work often grappled with social issues, particularly the experiences of Black men in the United States. “Saunders’s singular oeuvre was defined by assemblage-style works that brought together his…
As with many festivals, but especially Fantasia, a kind of analysis paralysis can creep in with even the most intrepid critic. What do you cover? What’s worth looking at and talking about? What can be paired together for snappy festival dispatches? Even (or especially) amid the Montreal-based fest’s genre brief, there’s a lot of variety to explore: animation, horror, science fiction, comedy, the list goes on. But even as I settle into my weeklong stint in Quebec (I don’t travel well), I find my curious pull for home calling to me in a trio of horror titles—two comedic, one compelling…

These days, Marvel is one of the most famous brands in all of popular culture. Its characters are literally world famous. There’s hardly a soul alive on this planet who doesn’t know Spider-Man or the X-Men or Iron Man.That’s these days. But in the decades between the rise of Marvel in the early 1960s and the birth of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the late 2000s, the company and its characters were not viewed as entertainment-industry juggernauts. (Except maybe Juggernaut. He was always a juggernaut.) Hollywood took almost a half century to recognize the full potential of Marvel’s library of heroes. Their attempts to…
After seven years, more than 1,500 court filings, and a fire that may or may not have damaged any art, billionaire collector Ronald Perelman’s $410 million legal standoff with his insurers has finally reached a courtroom, reports The Art Newspaper. At issue are five paintings, by Cy Twombly, Ed Ruscha, Andy Warhol and others, that survived a 2018 fire at Perelman’s East Hampton estate. They were, however, exposed to smoke and sprinklers, which Perelman claims stripped them of their market appeal—what he described in filings as their “oomph.” Related Articles The insurers, underwriters at Lloyd’s of London, did not accept…

In fashion, it’s all about trends. What’s hot, what’s not. Are hemlines up or down? Are pants loose and flowy or fitted? What is more popular, flats or heels? Fashion magazines keep us informed, but a recent trend in purses on social media is “coming in clutch” (see what I did there?), telling us everything we need to have. On some platforms, notably TikTok, the newest must-have is a specific style of beaded purse, and it’s become a white whale for some Gen Z fashionistas. Some fans might not know that beaded bags have been around forever. Young people, especially…
