new skin for the old ceremony.



A blog post on Carlo Scarpa, one of the first ~modern architects I truly love. Frank Lloyd Wright, angular takes on the sinuousness of Art Nouveau, amazing use of concrete.


A review of Water For Elephants (sounds dull as tombs) reminds me of the piercing Freaks, from 1932, starring a cast of actual carnies making old tropes about love and revenge new, twisted, and sharp again.
