Add your comment

After the world premiere of the highly-anticipated sequel to “The Phantom of the Opera.” Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber’s new musical “Love Never Dies” gained mixed first reviews. The musical was given a prolonged applause Tuesday night, but some newspaper critics voiced agnosticism about Briton Lloyd-Webber’s followup to his world-wide blockbuster “Phantom.”

The Daily Mail’s wrote “A hit? Not quite. It is too much an also-ran to the prequel, and its opening is too stodgy,” adding that the show “lacks human connection.”

The sequel scored three out of five stars from The Guardian, saying: “What the show lacks, in a nutshell, is a narrative tension,” while praising the costumes as “a glorious pastiche of burlesque tackiness.”

The sequel comes nearly after 25 years the first Phantom, which also received negative reviews on the opening night..

Pavement to Parks Projects

Add your comment

“Pavement to Parks” is insightful project from San Francisco that creates spaces for people by reclaiming possession of excess roadway, through the use of simple and low-cost design intervention. The excessively wide area which contain large zones of wasted space are expected to be turned into new public plazas and mini-parks. Lot of wasted space that is uselessly paved will be transformed into plazas and seating areas in excess roadways by painting over the asphalt, installing tables and chairs, green grass and putting up protective barriers. Hopefully such project will more to come—perhaps in other cities as well.

Street Art- Art work from Little People

With non-art contexts, the street artists have challenged art from centuries by creating masterpieces. These little people create the street art for expression or manifestation of their feelings or just get delighted by creating them. The ‘Street’ artists do not strive to change the definition of an artwork, but rather to question the existing and surrounding environment in accordance with the fact with its own expression language.

Leaf Art

Add your comment

Making an art out of leaves is not a new idea but several artists have taken the medium to a new level by using it for an expression of gratitude towards nature… When the leaves start to fall, it can be picked up and pressed leaves can be used for portrait or cut images of everything from landscapes. With comprehensible painstaking effort these framed – sustainable art can be little more interesting, it can uplift your mood for autumn!!
