  1. Movie review: 'Gregory Crewdson: Brief Encounters' of art in progress

    It is a rare thing to witness the creative process. But in the excellent new documentary "Gregory Crewdson: Brief Encounters," filmmaker Ben Shapiro gives us fly-on-the-wall access over a 10-year period to an acclaimed artist as he envisions, designs and executes his surreal commentary on small-town American life in the form of an epic photo installation, "Beneath the Roses."

  2. Chile's pop music scene hits a new high, with Astro in its orbit

    In the video for their hit single "Ciervos" (Stags), members of the Chilean electro-pop band Astro wave spears and romp around in furry pelts and animal skulls as if part of some Bronze Age lost tribe.

  3. Movie review: 'Tattoo Nation' doc studies art form's mark on U.S.

    The documentary "Tattoo Nation" deftly chronicles the journey of modern tattoo artistry in the United States as it moved from the margins to the mainstream. Director Eric Schwartz, aided by writer-producer John Corry, writer-editor Marco Jakubowicz and narrator Corey Miller (TLC's "L.A. Ink"), has crafted a vivid portrait that should satisfy aficionados and intrigue the curious. Ink-averse viewers, however, may remain unsold.

  4. Miami art collectors take works to Palm Springs Art Museum show

    Don and Mera Rubell are known in the art world as the New York-to-Miami transplants who helped to bring the Art Basel art fair to Florida and opened a museum-like space there for their cutting-edge collection. Not so well known: their connections to California.

  6. 49 places in San Francisco that you might have missed

    You've been to San Francisco. You know not to call it "Frisco," not to expect ample parking, not to forget your sweater. You know the Powell Street cable cars run through Union Square and where to find the Golden Gate Bridge. You know that most days, the Oakland Airport works as well as SFO, sometimes better. But for a small city (about 7 miles by 7 miles), San Francisco changes fast, especially the restaurants. If your itinerary is dominated by reassuring old favorites (Union Square, again! City Lights books, again!), you may be missing a lot. To remedy that, six of us fanned out across the 49 square miles in late fall and early winter, using public transportation &mdash; bus (<a href="http://www.sfmta.com">www.sfmta.com</a>) and BART (<a href="http://www.bart.gov">www.bart.gov</a>) &mdash; and scoped out 49 listings of sweet spots in the city that are new, newly transformed or just underappreciated. (Of course, we ended up with more than 49.) We're also offering more than a dozen suggestions for hotels that won't break your personal bank. The lists of sights and accommodations aren't complete by any means, so we welcome your ideas and suggestions at <a href="mailto:travel@latimes.com">travel@latimes.com</a>.

  7. Review: A muse for 'Renoir,' father and son

    "Renoir" is a lush, involving film that deals not with one Renoir but two, as well as the strong-minded woman who was a key player in both their lives.

  10. Albrecht Dürer: Drawn to art at an early age

    WASHINGTON &mdash; It is rare for a museum to lend the heart of its most prized collection to another museum, but the Albertina in Vienna has done just that by shipping almost a hundred watercolors and drawings by Albrecht D&uuml;rer to the National Gallery of Art here for an exhibition.

  11. Exhibition looks at Maurice Sendak in the wild

    The first touring exhibition of Maurice Sendak's illustrations since his death at 83 last May is making its debut at the Bowers Museum in Santa Ana. It's called "Maurice Sendak: 50 Years, 50 Works, 50 Reasons," but a more apt title might have been "Where the Wild Cards Are."

  12. Community gathers at the Last Bookstore

    The staircase is narrow and creaky, with a bookshelf made from a 100-year-old harp case teetering on the precipice of collapse at the top of the landing. Overflowing with open books, pages wildly askew and dangling from uneven shelves, the bookcase looks as if it's escaped from a vintage cartoon.
