POPSIs the Sagrada Familia being banalised in the name of tourism? Another example: "Michelangelo, another great religious architect, designed the dome of St Peter's but died before he could erect it. His designs were adapted by later architects. Does this make St Peter's a botched job, a betrayal? No. We experience it for what it is - a great collective religious work in which the individual contributions of Michelangelo, Bramante, Raphael, Sangallo and Bernini are visible, yet at the same time subsumed in the common purpose. Significantly, Michelangelo for once set aside his habitual rivalries at St Peter's and incorporated into his own contribution designs by his enemy Bramante.

PW: 'Without a Canyon of the Vaginas in which to peck our American tantra, in which to connect our hormones to the stars, we may be becoming psychological paraplegics...' You wrote this in 1988 in a travel piece about your journey to North Canyon in Nevada, the Canyon of the Vaginas.

All that erotic display is delicious -- as far as it goes. The problem is, we have no means in contemporary culture to connect the sexual to the spiritual. That is what is missing.

POPSAnselm Kiefer: The monumental art of "Falling Stars" The eclectic, somehow organic contemporary modernism of Kiefer's work is cocooned within the Grand Palais, a shimmering monument of industrial modernity in the Fin-de-Cecil machine age. It seems like a very potent contrast, a commentary on both the eternally elusive nature of the future, and on our relationship with a past whose material vestiges haunt our world. I wish I were in Paris to see this show!

POPS'Gay porn' movie raises ripples on far right The London leader of the extreme-right (and antigay) British National Party wrote, directed, and produced a Marxist gay porn film in 1989. I guess he's the contemporary British version of Daniel Burros. EDIT: Via Philip Klinkner , whose PolySigh blog I encourage you all to check out.
