  6. Review: Takashi Murakami captivates at Blum & Poe

    Back in the 1960s, Marshall McLuhan predicted that modern technology would turn the world into a global village. Now that that’s come to pass, the most captivating art being made today begins with a savvy understanding of its conflicted place in a world where the reality of instantaneous communication has replaced the fantasy of instantaneous gratification.

  9. Ruth Ozeki's 'A Tale for the Time Being' is a diary, a puzzle, a novel

    Ruth Ozeki opens her third novel, "A Tale for the Time Being," with a small deception — or, more accurately, a sleight of hand. Forgoing context or explanation, she plunges us into the diary of a 16-year-old Japanese girl named Nao.
