A collection of jewelry dating back to the early 26th Dynasty has been found by archaeologists during excavation work in the northwestern part of the Karnak Temple in Luxor, Egypt.

Presented in a dual projection slideshow, the projections simulate the dancer’s movements. This work is the heart of Mann’s exhibition “Solo” at DREI.Many works in Mann’s exhibition are…
Making a sequel is like a 1984 Clint Eastwood crime thriller: It’s a tightrope.Audiences come to a sequel because they loved a movie and wanted to see more of its story or characters. But you can’t just make more of the same movie again. Moviegoers want a sequel that feels both fresh and familiar all at once, which is an impossible balancing act. (Maybe that’s why so many sequels are so bad.)The challenge to deliver something new can sometimes yield sequels that look strikingly different than the films that inspired them. Here the tightrope gets even more precarious. Will the audience that liked the…
Art MarketAnnabel KeenanCaring for an art collection is crucial for buyers at all levels and works across all mediums. Prioritizing the safety of any artwork begins from the moment you buy the piece, to the way in which you pack and ship it, to how you live with it now and in the future.

There’s something about “Picnic at Hanging Rock” that makes one obsessive. Directed by Peter Weir and based on the novel of the same name by Joan Lindsay, the film takes place in 1900 and charts the aftermath of the disappearance of three schoolgirls and a teacher during a Valentine’s Day picnic beneath Hanging Rock, a towering and abrupt shard of volcanic rock in Victoria, Australia. About a million years old, it was created when “siliceous lava forced up from deep down below,” says Miss McCraw, the teacher who ends up missing, as the group of students from Appleyard College rides…
Pointing the projector toward the wall might be an affordable option but not the most optimal way to enjoy a movie.

They are lightweight, which also helps you move them…
