Form The New Yorker, an article on the complex world of Lucas Cranach the Elder. "People need beauty": Architect Oscar Niemeyer turns 100 (and here's Oscar Niemeyer, in pictures). A review of Gunyah, Goondie & Wurley: The Aboriginal Architecture of Australia by Paul Memmott. From The Hindu, cultural catalyst: India’s economic boom has led to a sense of claiming our space in the world order — this confidence is fertile ground for artistic fecundity.
