In less than a month, the historic Olbrich park will be decorated by an archetypal labyrinth, constructed entirely out of discarded Christmas pine trees. Artist Lillian Sizemore’s temporary art exhibition, “How lovely are thy branches” was recently approved, funded and put into motion by the Madison Arts Commission (MAC); a group dedicated to supporting underfunded and underappreciated art installations in the city of Madison.

Students majoring in the arts have always had to deal with questions like: “What is your second major? How are you going to make a living off of your art?" While these questions have become normalized, the University of Wisconsin-Madison needs to stand firmer with its art students. While there are some scholarship opportunities offered and other chances for "volunteer exposure," there needs to be considerably more support from the university. This would give students the chance to thrive after college instead of following in the footsteps of the "dreaded starving artist," a title that is commonly held by those that pursue art in undergrad.

For fans of shows like “The Office” or “Parks and Recreation,” the new Netflix sitcom “The Crew,” though certainly capable of keeping you occupied, will likely leave you feeling unsatisfied and wishing NBCUniversal didn’t drop a small fortune to get some of your favorite sitcoms removed from Netflix.

Do you ever read a book, find yourself stunned, then spend hours trying to picture exactly what the adaptation will look like? The sights, the sounds — and more importantly, names involved?

In preparation for our first fully online semester of college, my roommates and I sprung for the faster of the AT&T and internet packages. This package included a complimentary subscription to HBO Max. While the speed of the wireless connection may have been overstated, HBO’s vast library of original content became a TV staple in my apartment. I watched several recommended titles in the early months, but no show has quite dominated my binging hours like The Sopranos.

A shrine-like nook sits at the top of the stairs in Serendipity Stage’s studio apartment. Two wine bottles with tall candles in the spouts flank a triangular painting. Stage painted each corner a different primary color and connected each of them to the center with light swirls. The center features a tiny white stick-figure inside of a blue eyeball. A key floats underneath the eye, teeth facing up.

“Supernova” is an ode to the things that we live for. In fact, the core of “Ode on Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood” by William Wordsworth, a classic example of an actual ode, is remarkably similar to what “Supernova” is about. The first stanza reads as follows:

Back in 2007, now Marvel creative officer and household name Kevin Feige had an idea. Why wouldn’t he take every property the company owned, put them in the same sandbox and let loose the world’s greatest collection of superheroes on the same screen, at the same time?

There’s real excitement in movies with a female lead. Very honestly, I’m more drawn to things that show women doing cool stuff than I am to watching male characters talk over each other for two hours. If I wanted to witness that, I would just leave my apartment.

For years and across cultures, the art form of female impersonation has been performed publicly, dating back to the 19th century. In the early 1900s, men used to role play as women during opera, putting on wigs and dresses to evoke the illusion of a biological woman, because women, at the time, were not allowed to perform on stage. These acts of historic female caricatures have carried into modern times, unfolding into a full-on entertainment business.

On February 11, Netflix released a four-episode documentary about the mystery case of Elisa Lam. In early 2013, Lam was reported missing after staying at the infamous Cecil Hotel located in Los Angeles. The documentary follows this crime through the perspectives of the hotel manager at the time, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), hotel guests and the “internet sleuths". Through multiple views, viewers are walked through one of the most bewildering and puzzling crime scenes of the decade.

Rarely does a film get released at a time that perfectly captures the current mood and struggles that so many people are experiencing. When a movie can reflect such universal experiences and remain grounded in an authentic, surreal cinematic style, you can’t help but be moved.

Healing is far from linear, and no one knows that better than Hayley Williams. Her new album, FLOWERS for VASES / descansos, reveals the pain that once influenced her life, painting an image of a dead garden suffocated by weeds not yet ready to be planted, let alone bloom.

Late last year, I wrote about how Netflix’s “Trial of the Chicago Seven” was poised for this moment — a testament to standing up for your rights as an American citizen and bringing viewers back to a period that echoed many of the demands for civil rights we still seek today.
