that it was just last december that the art of neapolitan pizza making was granted world heritage status by unesco giving long awaited international recognition to the pixar your law profession which includes the spectacular handling and touring of the doe the baking and an array of songs and stories that are all part of the pizza baking ritual while proud pizza makers in naples celebrated by handing out free pizza and given the love and the know how that they pour into their art they would find it hardly surprising that a museum in the off has dedicated an entire exhibition to their world famous pie. opinion among museum visitors is often divided over whether exhibits whip their appetite but at pizza is god in this world over surely everyone is agreed the show

covers the cultural significance and iconic power of pizza from the phone to the color and consistency it's inspirational. to have their own was the point of the exhibition was to show how peter has been a subject matter in the visual arts. and not just among new young artists but also among world famous figures from the past insist or wish. one can sling the rubbish . in a prime example being never a german artist martin couldn't backa and his pizza fashion from mort in one thousand nine hundred three visitors get to see pop pop pioneer andy warhol gently digging into a bag next to former child movie star mccauley culkin and tucking into a pizza pizza has become part of global every day culture another interesting aspect for artists and. there's also an innocuous looking exhibit outside the

museum i too must use or show it's actually a cost bronze mock paper plates with a hot pizza called margarita moments it's a school for the thomas knows it art or trash and it looks like garbage bread and that's the invention you know the crucial thing is not the trash but the moment of dropping something you're from or along the street if you think it's like capturing a moment in time is the moment. if that sounds a tad too highbrow to digest you can always eat the real thing at a pizzeria around the corner with a selection of nineteen artistically dressed pieces as likely. as the happy pizza. capital pizza where the talking is unequally distributed all the lonely tomato pizza does this year this is the i r l. created by artist luke fuller. some artist's work based on taste just taking ingredients they personally like on their pizza but some of the pizzas have the more symbolic look and.

this is a pizza base turned into a canvas with painted toppings stacked pizza boxes for. its pizza but not as we know it and here's the genuine article on a museum or like a painting. there isn't any visual quality we're used to seeing them lying flat on a. but when it's looking you in the face there's a whole new effect. seem to have all manner of weird and wonderful uses there were so works of art to taste positively divine. well there you go as a decoration every week in this lot my d.i.y. colleagues show you some fun and creative ways to brighten up your interior design with some homemade accessories so for all of you crafty types out there listen up. how to make not a pizza but an elegant mosaic tray using glass tiles and some household paint.

hi my name is francisca and i absolutely. one day though today i'll show you how to make it beautiful trade with them so you can do it yourself you need a wooden tray but it doesn't have to be new. glass tiles from a heavy craft. which is a lot cheaper actually click with a few grout from head. start. though and all. will do as well and paint if you want to paint the chain on the outside. turquoise is my favorite color so that's what the end of the chain if you use an alternate remember to sand down the surface would be. well you can painting let the paint dry for wanted two hours and now it's time for the time. of the tiles onto the tray make sure to leave

a little gap between them. if you don't want to improvise you can be thawed and lay the taps on to the tray without you and take a photo. but i prefer improvising and rather rearrange some of the tiles before the instead. if you have a range was a tad let the glue dry. now prepare the ground following the instructions that came with it. spread it over the top and into the gaps. the edges of the gaps have to be filled up properly. thing isn't necessary to. make sure you leave the brow to dry completely just follow the instructions. then use a wet sponge to remove excess grout so. you need to wrap pretty high. i

use a chopstick to remove grout from the inside of the tray. finally i polish it with a damp cloth. and now your tray is ready to use. instead of with a towel you can also use these as a broken dishes only make sure the pieces are nice and flat so the tray is also flat. interior design and it's the best check out our you tube channel detail the interior design stunning ideas spectacular buildings and d.i.y. tutorials on home decoration will take you inside the most beautiful european homes show you the latest in furniture fabrics and accessories subscribe and don't miss out. on youtube. well finally it's berlin bicycle week here in the capital and that gave us pause to ponder all of the good reasons to choose cycling as

a transport option it's relatively inexpensive it's good for the climate and of course it's a great way to keep fit but for many it's also a lifestyle and a style choices specially if you're a fan of the old fashioned aesthetic and some people take that to the absolute extreme with penny farthing models so we found a high winner as they're also called enthusiast and designer to explain their special element of choice. when pair of people pedals through the town of tommy leave in southern sweden his high wheel bicycle is a real life catcher. for people there's nothing quite like riding with his head almost in the clouds. just. the right. way to. make sure.

it's. passion love and madness. and joy. in two thousand and thirteen people decided to start building high wheelers himself his models aren't copies of historical models but modern versions . a standard high will cost fifteen hundred euros and up. it's really an icon it's iconic to sign a bias a girl the simplicity i'm an architect myself and i'm a really really an ally the simple design the function the function give the decide. a simple design functionality and high quality that's what peril of kibbles high we'll stand for. but when it comes to practicality he is willing to make a few compromises. if not practical at all you

have. no dears. normally no brakes you can put a break up on this bike there is no break either. if something interrupt you on the road you can just put on the feet then stop you have to jump off so. there are no practical reasons there are other reasons and that's the reason for having fun. fun is the primary criterion for the members of the berlin historical bicycle club as well they meet regularly for a ride in the countryside on their own sometimes historical bicycles. most of these bicycles date from the first half of the twentieth century. to round out the picture club members like to dress in period costume like one nine hundred thirty south fits or knickerbockers. i like the aesthetic of the old

bicycles more than the new ones i'm always surprised at how well the old bicycles right new bikes are boring so i started going for the old ones. they're no harder to write just a little riskier to stop on. old bicycles are not just a passion they're also. he's a bicycle dealer and his museum shop in berlin spandau district is an outlet for historical replacement parts business is booming. more and more young people are interested in all icicles. so demand has increased. and if you look at the. totally outlandish prices just complete absurdity. the feeling of riding a special bicycle one with patina instead of modern technology for many cyclists including pair of people that is the biggest appeal.

in this time everything you do. is so prepared it's already changed your credit like did our safety belts all over in all locations in need something which just love that which is which. which includes expected. which a very low. bar . well that brings us rolling to the end of this edition we hope you enjoyed it and until next time all of us from berlin obviously don't. next time on your own power trip back in time bruce in norway boasts would noses that are centuries old and each year some one million tourists flock to see
