  Chris Ofili's new paintings at Tate Britain: thumbs up or down?

   

  No elephant dung, no glitter, no textured, collaged surfaces. It's all a bit of a shock. But do we like Ofili's new work?I'd seen some of Chris Ofili's new work in the lavish new Rizzoli book he has helped put together. Even so, after walking past so many greatest hits and old friends in the galleries at London's Tate Britain, where his latest career survey opens to the public tomorrow, I got a jolt when I walked into the final pair of rooms, filled with his most recent work. In the first, the p...

  Have you been feeling increasingly claustrophobic when you walk through People's Square? Tired of waiting on long lines just to cram your way onto a train? Does your daily commute make you feel like you're in a bad infomercial about overpopulation? Well, you're not alone: over five million people use Shanghai's transportation system every day, and they probably feel the same way you do. Granted, Shanghai's transportation system is pretty good: The trains are fast and efficient, the subway s...

  Forest Whitaker to Catch a Criminal Once a Week

   

  Crime Dog: Forest Whitaker is close to locking down the lead role in a CBS spinoff of Criminal Minds. The show will focus on a group of criminal profilers working outside of the FBI apparatus. Rogues! Whitaker will play the group's charismatic leader and an awesome criminal profiler who has been out of the game for eight years. Unless his technique involves martial arts and pigeons, Whitaker's prodigious talents are going to be severely underused here. [THR] Larry the Traveling Guy: As a p...

  Jay-Z pays homage to Hirst

   

  Slate magazine reports on the new Jay-Z video for On to the Next One, in which the hip-hop artist returns to his shtick of making visual and lyrical references to contemporary art. This time it’s Damien Hirst’s For the Love of God. In the highly slick film by director Sam Brown, a replica of the diamond-encrusted skull has black paint slowly doused over it. Jay-Z knows his art: he tweets about hanging with Gagosian, rhymes about Warhol and Basquiat and has featured works by Murakami in previous...
