the madonna does so so in look on. in voters' home city of to chino sacred symbols are everywhere the same goes for the valley much north of lake majority. but in the mountain village of morn yo ma to go back to change the landscape in the ninety's an avalanche had buried the town in one thousand nine hundred six. but did designed a church of remembrance called the chapel of son giovanni but easter. architects giovanni luigi dot seo was psych manager then. we owe a lot to mario both because he has a rich poor area with this project. the order of all of this has become not only a landmark but also an expression of will power with generosity and passion that come into a deep. the church has a decorative chessboard pattern and is

a site for visitors from far beyond the reach of. the marble in granite came from a nearby valley. or keep it a same pretty nearly mean to the architecture is always in dialogue with the landscape but with the surroundings. architecture is never also referential but your sculpture. it belongs to the geographical location as well as to the culture and history of the place. with light sails like half dome sea created a wellness oasis in arrow's of switzerland. the mountain restaurant in your di pietro or stone flower was opened in twenty seventeen unmounted general in switzerland. the facade with its seven towers was boldly built on a slope. but he has also left his mark on cities as here with the museum of modern

art in san francisco. switching between secular and sacred buildings is not a problem for the architect he sees himself as a mediator another example is the construction of the chamber lease to synagogue in tel aviv which opened in one nine hundred ninety eight. you know it's interesting because it's a university campus intended for lay and not religious students. been through really josie be the lady we were afraid that the faithful were dominant and . maybe even the jewels so i designed big rooms do we see the way of. god to pray and will be the conference room as a place for discussion but again in that.

crowd pullers we have not really of course not all the exhibits we've assembled here are of cultural significance bob they deserve their places here even if they should think about if they will. among the stars of the show are a nodding dog and the mascot for the munich olympics nine hundred seventy two combo because so found inspiration from a cheeky little ducks and named blunt. and there are even songs dedicated to the dog. they've never really been own vogue but perhaps the image of them and their owners is now changing. into activity jackson should not be dismissed as something for old fogies it doesn't matter if you see them out walking with grandma or hipster what matters is the dog's character with. their extremely long body and short legs earned him the nickname soft. it sure winner dog. is german and literally means. the dogs had been bred so they could flush out badgers from their

burrows that made its first foray into high society when german emperor of the second took a fancy to by the name of. celebrities like. also fell for the. despite having a checkered image over the years doc sons are now back in london's greenwich park is the scene of special sausage walks. that you know maybe. i'm five hundred the best. route with. krakow poland has an annual parade featuring hundreds of dogs and owners from all over the world. some of the dogs have become stars the canadian smooth haired crusoe has over

travels the world to photograph cliffs canyons mountains and glaciers and he's most interested in catcher in capturing them in a special light for example he wants to see europe's highest mountain with the milky way in the distance or the grand canyon under a rainbow now his job involves lots of time and patience in order to find the right life but for class the end product is worth the wait. this is a man for whom the extraordinary is not enough. question kept tries to capture the nature around him in a very special light. come forward photography means writing with lines which is why i generally work in the

twilight hours or at night that's when you get the most stunning light conditions the hope so about. kristen to have as a geoscientist by profession which involves travelling around the world on a regular basis. but today he's fulfilling a long held dream back home to capture the natural beauty of germany's north sea coast. venice with my daily i'd like to get these waves and ripples in a subtle backlight and tease the image in a light out of nature those images don't just drop into the camera by themselves. it involves a lot of hard work about who is going to come out of. his method begins with the photo in normal daylight conditions. then he waits for exactly the right moment at sunrise or sunset. that requires patience in spite of having to brave the bitterly cold winds of the north sea. however the photographer is used to far less

hospitable conditions from his travels. he finds this remarkable machines in some of the remotest places on the planet. the beans are in the nevada desert at new moon. red sea stacks off the coast of new zealand the colorado river in the grand canyon and this view taken from a. glaciation iceland. these risky going in that you have to remember that there's a place you know is moving at a rate of one meter per day so once you're inside you're surrounded by these constant cracking and crunching sounds sort of isn't just not. good and it's an incredibly eerie but at the same time magical environments. particularly beautiful lobbies trance or blank volcanic ash deposited in the ice over the last five thousand years. that you scientists combines his in-depth knowledge of how the

earth evolved with the nation for its beauty. he's willing to wait days to get the right shot. i had an idea of photographing locked issues are they at night as soon as i'm ok way a period of a month long so i had to return to that location again and again. until the night was perfect as it is no above the north sea. seeing these magical places does make you feel very small and in or in nature that's especially true in today's walks we need to show more respect for our planet and i think that only happens when people do something. the native american reservation in washington state is constantly sniffs disconnection and then in love with up planets breath taking. heroin you don't have to go very far to find

international cuisine but finding a place that makes a good b.l.t. or bacon lettuce and tomato sandwich can be pretty difficult unless you're head to the trendy berlin restaurant called a michelle bagger now the original b.l.t. comes from the west but michelle burger irish chef makes a different version of it. i. think that people are definitely warmer and then there's strangers and a friendly through each other which berliners near the call sometimes it's just hard to use the force well. it's ok. allen makes house from limerick ireland he grew up dreaming of becoming a football player at a holiday job in a restaurant as a schoolboy he found his true calling and trained as a chef. he moved to berlin in twenty fourteen and was recruited that same year i

shifted cuisine at the restaurant michel bagga in the hip friedrich sign neighborhood. bread here is breaks in house by the chef himself based on a german recipe. these are a shrewd stew come through his specially on the fish front. once he's country up a new connery creation he presents it to his kitchen crew. places great value on good working relations and he knows his suppliers personally. i think it's important for a lot of people. in modern times that they want to know where the food is coming from the city this. demands our gannett food and has to be built for some people especially in this neighborhood. michel bacharan strong belongs to the hotel of the same name that opened in two thousand and nine is a former industrial building that in the one nine hundred forty s.

sandwich is served with a sound featuring c snails. along the coast of the chefs native island fish and seafood is served in every restaurant. traditional irish cuisine tends to be a hearty meat and potatoes affair not dissimilar to german food. banks gives it a modern twist. macro also features regularly in the restaurants on trains. as the chef in some sense if you go fishing and don't catch a macro when you've had a bad day. and the best time to catch micro is apparently between may and september.
