8 h. ago The Balcony Movie review – funny/sad film that offers a view into strangers’ lives

Pawel Lozinski’s documentary collects conversations with passers-by he talks to from the window of his Warsaw flatPolish film-maker Pawel Lozinski has curated this amusing, cumulatively melancholy documentary which he has shot from the first-floor balcony in his flat in the Saska Kępa district of Warsaw. Over a number of years, and with a microphone discreetly attached to the chainlink fence at street level, he simply calls down to people going past and asks them to stop and talk about something, anything.There are a lot of dog-walkers and people with babies; most people smile or grimace politely and say they are not special enough to be featured in a film. A priest says he can’t talk because he is carrying the Holy Sacrament. Others obligingly talk: one woman sings a rather beautiful song, a man talks about being homeless, having just got out of prison. People confide their sadness at the loss of a loved one, though one woman sheepishly confesses her profound happiness that her abu...

25 h. ago ‘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 livedWhen Do Ho Suh was a young boy in Seoul in the 1970s, his father decided to build a family home based on a hanok – a traditional Korean timber house with a curved tiled roof. The one he chose as his model stood in the gardens of the imperial palace and had been built for King Sunjo in 1878.“My father was a painter who had modernised Korean art,” says Suh, “but, as the country was rapidly moving towards westernisation, he became obsessed with the idea that he could live like a scholar from an older time. For him, it was a way to preserve certain traditional virtues and practices that were fast disappearing.” Continue reading...

25 h. ago Go to town! The surprise feelgood effects of walking in the city

A stroll around historic buildings, cemeteries and winding back streets can lift your spirits just as effectively as communing with nature, according to author Annabel Streets. Let’s put that to the test When I arrange to meet Annabel Streets, the appropriately named author of a new book, The Walking Cure, I’m presented with a challenge. She wants me to choose a London location I am unfamiliar with, so I can experience her ideas about the upsides of urban landscapes. In the book, Streets contemplates the powerful impact walking can have on our mood, thoughts and emotions, and how this can differ according to where and how we walk. While most people are aware of the benefits of walking in nature, Streets makes the case for urban environments, known as “brown spaces” by developers. Surprisingly, churches, convents and cemeteries, all of which are found in cities, often offer a superabundance of wildlife. A study in one Berlin cemetery found 604 species, 10 of which were rare or endang...

26 h. ago Forgotten: Searching for Palestine’s Hidden Places and Lost Memorials review – existence is resistance

In mapping the Palestinian history and culture that persists despite Israeli suppression, Raja Shehadeh and Penny Johnson display a strength of purpose and a promise of hopeRaja Shehadeh – lawyer, activist and Palestine’s greatest prose writer – has long been a voice of sanity and measure in the fraught, tendentious world of Arab-Israeli politics. His first non-academic book, When the Bulbul Stopped Singing, chronicled the 2002 siege of his hometown, Ramallah, while Palestinian Walks, which won the Orwell prize, traced how Israel’s de facto occupation of the West Bank had fundamentally altered both its geography and its history. Last year, Shehadeh published What Does Israel Fear from Palestine?, his first book since the attacks of 7 October. It was a work in two parts: the first, a characteristically measured analysis of how history led us to this point; the second, a bitterly furious record of the devastation wrought upon Gaza. The overwhelming impression was of a man who, after d...
