Glad to see The Bear still experimenting with form and further developing its characters. Season 4 felt like they were back in the game, though for me nothing can still quite match Jimmy’s banana.

‘Memories of these places never leave you’: artist Do Ho Suh and the fabric of home The internationally renowned South Korean’s diaphanous houses, coming to Tate Modern, embody the emotional imprint of where he has lived

For anyone interested in art or architecture the Do Ho Suh exhibition at Tate is a must. The sheer painstaking patience of the man is incredible. A genuinely original show themed around the memories of places we’ve lived. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Visited Villa Stenersen in Oslo recently, designed by Arne Korsmo for Munch’s biographer. It’s well worth a trip.

Yoshitomo Nara review: cutesy terrors swear, smoke, play guitar and burn down houses The Japanese artist’s instantly recognisable delinquent infants fill a huge show that also includes more sombre – and still angry – work made since the Fukushima disaster

A long time ago i made the mistake of asking the price of a small print of Yoshitomo Nara in a gallery, thinking i might get it as a gift for my partner. I did not get the gift. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

BFI Film on Film Festival 2025 Welcome to the BFI Film on Film Festival where every film, without exception, is projected from a print.

BFI Film on Film Festival opens for booking next week. Quite like the sound of a rare screening of Frank Perry’s (of The Swimmer fame) Fire Island set Last Summer. Oh, and i guess there’s also Star Wars from an original 1977 print. Might be popular? whatson.bfi.org.uk/Online/defau...

Having visited Picker House today, it was every bit as good as it looks. Impeccably kept modernist time capsule with an art collection including Hepworth, Calder, Miro, Rodin, Sutherland and more (or Moore). Worth booking one of the limited tours. www.stanleypickertrust.org/about

Found a new house to add to this thread, and not one i’d ever heard of before - Picker House in Kingston. www.stanleypickertrust.org

A wood-clad cinema with a central bar

Love this local cinema in Stockholm that I covered for @dezeen.com: www.dezeen.com/2025/04/04/i...

I’m a bit disappointed the penny didn’t drop at ‘The distressed shopper told staff he had climbed into a large basket full of squishy toy snakes in confusion and been unable to get out.’ But hey, it was early in the morning!

It was only at the last line - ‘Dezeen has seen internal documents showing what appear to be designs for a building styled on a giant meatball‘ - that i realised what day it is. bsky.app/profile/cajs...

Went on a walk in Hampstead yesterday and discovered what has to be the nicest council estate I’ve ever seen. History of it here: municipaldreams.wordpress.com/2013/07/02/t...

AD Classics: Bagsværd Church / Jørn Utzon Completed in 1976 in Bagsværd, Denmark. The Bagsværd Church by Jørn Utzon was completed in 1976. Though not his most famous work, the church is an example of the architect’s inventive work...

Would also really recommend Bagsvaerd Church by Jørn Utzon. A bit more of a schlep out of town but well worth it. But check before you go and don’t turn up during a funeral like we did. www.archdaily.com/160390/ad-cl...

Finally watched Close Your Eyes, and when Ana Torrent intones ‘Soy Ana’, echoing her debut over 50 years ago, it hit me like a wave, returning me not just to Erice’s earlier masterpiece but also to a 30th anniversary San Sebastián screening attended by the actress. Where did all the years go?

80s fashion choices in the films of Eric Rohmer Get inspiration for the 80s look with our trendspotter’s guide to the clothes in Eric Rohmer’s films of the 1980s.

It’s Eric Rohmer’s birthday, which can mean only one thing: I get to reshare my favourite BFI article, by @sam-wigley.bsky.social. www.bfi.org.uk/features/80s...

“If you don’t stop that right now you’re toast!”

Spike Jonze’s 2013 film Her is playing at BFI next Thursday. Still feels so ahead of its time and well worth seeing on the big screen. whatson.bfi.org.uk/Online/defau...

About 15 years ago their original EP was worth over £100. I remember showing someone my still sealed copy (which i’d got for free) when asked what the most valuable record i owned was. As i showed them i promptly dropped it, knocking about £50 off its value. bsky.app/profile/theq...

This Sunday, 2 March, from 1100-1300, you can visit one of the Isokon flats in exchange for a £10 donation to the gallery. There may be a wait. First come, first served.

It’s a shame as there are some great touches (the quarry scene) but they’re then overshadowed by some fatal mishandling (the quarry party).

Backlash builds: why the architecture world hates The Brutalist Brady Corbet’s Oscar-tipped film is clearly based on real-life modernist master Marcel Breuer but brazenly misrepresents him and his revered modernism

Although you shouldn’t expect a fictional narrative to stick to the details of someone’s (in this case Breuer’s) life, this article does touch on many of the things wrong with The Brutalist. Kept wanting Paul Thomas Anderson to step in and do it properly. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/ja...

A still from documentary WE ARE FUGAZI FROM WASHINGTON D.C.

Ahead of the release of a documentary film, JR Moores laments Fugazi’s absence yet remains wary of a comeback, offering some “stupid fucking words” on the band that never ceased getting better until they stopped altogether

Still tickets left for a rare 35mm screening of Robert Towne’s Personal Best at BFI. Feels like one of the last hurrahs of the New Hollywood filmmakers, a film rooted in character but with a directorial style all of its own. whatson.bfi.org.uk/Online/defau...

Re-watched Jim Jarmusch’s anthology film Night on Earth, and it still feels original. Had forgotten how amazing Rosie Perez is in the New York section, and in fact just how many great actors he corralled in general. Rome is a weak point, but LA, NYC, Paris and Helsinki more than make up for it.
