. fans of twentieth century art should pay a visit to the pompeii due in metz in eastern france and that's because the museum is hosting an exhibition about the night featuring artists such as renee my cleats committee and pablo picasso all of them use the dark hours to symbolize something scary or magical or freedom now there will even be an opportunity to spend the night in the museum has more. the knight offers an atmosphere all of its own and unusual time for visitors to enjoy the artworks here throughout history the night has been a popular creative time for artists. there's always that soul of an english you have the time night painter

a painter who just can't work during the day there have been many night painter and we have many of their works artists who are obsessed with a night. the night hasn't always been as brightly lit as it is today in cities like berlin and paris artists celebrated the advent of electricity in the early decades of the twentieth century then before world war two there was a fascination for grotesque creatures that dean did the darkness for the surrealists the night held something of a magical quality in a magritte's works tended to be mysterious and fantastical. in the one nine hundred seventy s. francis bacon's paintings depicted the stuff of nightmares is haunting figures were brightly illuminated in surrounding darkness. the night is like a world where everything is in motion everything is free. so you don't have the clarity of day of reality where you can take liberties it's something that interests many artists just. the night sky is also

painting the night continues until. space is scarce in the british capital that is why more and more london homeowners have been expanding their basements for some years now that means digging under the gardens to create more space for a luxury cellar now these controversial expansions have a name iceberg houses now the biggest part of the building is underground or be it above or below the surface this whole new development in london has one catch and that is homeowners need to dig even deeper into their pockets because these expansions are very expensive. roams of townhouses like these are typical in london's more affluent neighborhood. the trend has taken hold here in the last few years thanks to

a lack of space. i don't like a move while you can see that housing in london is limited by up with you we have no other option but to expand down with it into the senate because it also sort of this is new to have because construction costs an average of five thousand euros per square meter but house resale value comes in at about ten thousand euros ok i admit to hey i don't know what prices few can afford but those with enough money can enjoy a lavish supped a rainy an extension what up to this this here is an exceptional seller expansion with a ceiling high so. more than three point five meet his. requirements like all. homes with such a large cellar space have become known as iceberg homes because like an iceberg there's much more to them beneath the surface than above. there are so far around forty five hundred iceberg homes in london but converting them can cost structural

damage. architect emily moore hong is working on to sell our projects. careful there's a whole. she's well acquainted with the difficulties of these projects. it has it's very complicated and difficult the ground is excavated by hand. workers work alone in holes one point two meters deep. ground water rises in some homes which has to be pumped out that was the case here at the front of the house i think i have one that is all. underground construction often costs homeowners millions. the extra space isn't always for necessary a minute but added luxury. this is. this is well it's so it's meant to be very always here read like this.

whole calls it took about eighteen months to build a my whole project was about two million pounds. iceberg it's a new development in a crowded capital. want to know more about european lifestyle and culture visit euro max on facebook. you'll find highlights from our programs. three hundred sixty degree videos of the most beautiful places in europe and snapshots taken by our reporters take an exclusive look behind the scenes at how the program is produced and follow us on facebook life. we love it when fans visit our facebook page and give us their feedback visit d.w. euro max on facebook. with all of the religious strife we see on a daily basis in the media it's easy to forget that christianity judaism and islam

are inevitably intertwined at least that is what one finnish photographer wants to point out all out call in mind has brought out a book combining photographs of churches mosques and synagogues now regardless of your beliefs it's hard to argue the beauty of these photographs. the pantheon in rome. the ioseph istanbul. and the star temple synagogue an indian. muslim you can't tell whether it's a mosque a church or a synagogue till the second or third look. centuries old houses of worship are all a color of mine and subjects before he presses the button the chemistry has to be just right. when i go in i need to have the kind of enlargement of the spirit. in light moment of the light so there's something

a driven force that i'm looking for. some places it's very easy to find some birds it's a little bit more difficult sometimes it's easy to find but very hard to capture. this time color mining is turning his lens on berlin's cathedral he looks for just the right subject the optimal position and especially the perfect light. the challenge for him is to capture the particular mood and spatial dimensions on film . the image in several parts so kind of deconstruct the space and then reconstruct it but the it's not perfect and that the certain point. when the viewer is looking to work certain distance you sense the three dimensionality. line in creates his artwork after the shoot. in his berlin studio here ranges his photos like the tiles of a mosaic into larger panoramas. all of this is possible to do too

but i like to do it on a lot of the tricks used to my work it's not photography architecture and it's obstructing it. and the native of finland discovered his fascination for houses of worship in two thousand and thirteen in istanbul he spent months photographing must after that he spent more than three years visiting over fifty sacred sites all around europe the result was a book of photos and an exhibition titled sacred spaces in the house. the walls and spaces themselves became part of the installation. there were twenty seven works in the exhibition and there are twenty five colors. so it becomes. a mine is a photographer of what's known as the helsinki school while studying in the finnish capital in the one nine hundred ninety s. e began to specialize in images of spaces and facades. he made his name was

abstract photos of architecture he came to it somewhat by accident. as a student at the university of art and design he found portrait photography to difficult . it was very difficult to work in a studio i did not the equipment and how to direct the people. there was so many things to do at the same time so when we went through this. meant i started to build small spaces and then i could spend whatever time in the studio and then. develop that i want to photograph real spaces. he compiled his sacred spaces from two thousand and fourteen to twenty seventeen years during which tensions between the world religions were growing in europe and elsewhere. did his photo project have a political message. i'm not doing political odd part i think all of the team

and how it's handled bring something the. board what i'm thinking about it. all and call it mine and images reveal that when seen from a distance christian jewish and muslim houses of worship are visually at least not all that different. tast thing on the subject of photography it's time to let you in on the winner of this week's right now we had wanted to know from you what is your favorite photography subjects we receive lots of pictures of animals of everything or crime. we've also received a photo of your children. plus if you'd like to send us in are your vacation photos including donkey rides and beautiful sunsets or views over the mountains but the winning photo this week comes from x. old struck bits from argentina he likes to take pictures of swimming holes and he
