In honor of Frank Sinatra's centennial birthday a traveling exhibition, "Sinatra: An American Icon", has been curated. Edward Baran reports.
On 'Watch What Happens Live,' host Andy Cohen got Hoda Kotb to play 'Plead the Fifth' with her friend and former 'Today' co-host Kathie Lee Gifford. According to CNN, guests are asked three questions and can only 'Plead the Fifth' for one. Kotb pleaded the Fifth on answering what was the most annoyed she has ever been with Gifford before going on air. But she answered willingly when asked the identity of the worst guest she'd ever had on 'Today.' It's Frank Sinatra Jr. It was the worst guest we've ever had, bar none. He had a book he was promoting, and he didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't say anything. Hoda Kotb
Lille (France), Oct 13 (EFE) .- (Camera: Luis Miguel Pascual) He never set foot in the industrious city of northern France, but Goya's influence reached Lille almost half a century after his death, when the Museum of Fine Arts of that city acquired two works by the Spanish artist.FOOTAGE OF THE EXHIBITION ON GOYA THAT IS EXHIBITED IN LILLESOUNDBITES FROM THE EXHIBITION CURATOR, REGIS COTENTIN- "A sensitive experience in which we give all the keys to interpretation and reading clues to Goya's life and work, condensed into two paintings, the young and the old, which belong to the Museum of Fine Arts in Lille, which close The exhibition". - "It is a gesture of generosity with the public, so that they can make their own interpretation of the paintings. Once they discover them, it is they who will decide if they are the masterpieces that we consider. We constextualize Goya's work in a moment in which Spanish art, in particular that of Goya, was little or not represented in France. It was not liked, it was considered that Goya painted too fast and that he did not deal with the right subjects "

Mexico City, Jul 6 (EFE).- A floor of white sand, walls that blend together, textured curtains, projections, and the words of artist Frida Kahlo in writing and in audio make up an immersive digital experience that opened Tuesday in the Mexican capital."I believe that the value of a piece of art takes on another meaning and another dimension when you know where it comes from," Kahlo's great-grandniece, Frida Hentschel, told EFE. (Camera: AMERICA NERI).SHOT LIST: THE IMMERSIVE EXHIBITION 'FRIDA', AT THE FRONTÓN MÉXICO IN MEXICO CITY, MEXICO. SOUND BITES: MARA ROMEO KAHLO, FRIDA KAHLO'S GREAT NIECE; FRIDA HENTSCHEL, KAHLO'S GREAT GRANDNIECE; MARA DE ANDA, KAHLO'S GREAT-GRANDNIECE; AND LAURA, SPETATOR (IN SPANISH).TRANSLATION: 1. MARA ROMEO KAHLO: It is a different way of seeing art, of feeling it. You can capture many details, small details that perhaps in a work as such can go unnoticed. It incorporates her music and you become aware of all the feelings involved. I think it is important because it really is a set of feelings. This is modern technology, and she, who was so avant-garde, I believe that the two things combine very well.2. FRIDA HENTSCHEL: She was always a woman well ahead of her time for this feminist movement that has been going on since then, and is now gaining much more strength. I think that Frida is a symbol that fought against the standards that existed at that time for women. 2.1 I believe that the value of a piece of art takes on another meaning and another dimension when you know where it comes from. So of course, we know these obstacles that Frida has survived and that part of her history that is very famous, but there is a familiar part that we know, that not everyone knows and that gives another dimension to all her work, to all her history.3. MARA DE ANDA: What we want is … to make known, not the Frida who suffered, but the one we know and the one we love.4. LAURA: It (the exhibition) is very good because there are many young people who do not know her work and it is an interesting way to make her known.
