lines of a shelter run away while trying to land in the southern indian city of car because now it is calcutta at least i think people are dead and dozens injured about the boeing 737 was carrying 198 passengers and crew. and watching the deadly news from the line up next thoughts and culture news and i'll be back at the top of the out with another update stacia. deep deep didn't beethoven do you think jazz. it is it does the sixty's with. world without beethoven i can't even begin to. think told the. story september 16th w. a meal time to complete the 2nd season of on the fence it's about the environment it's

still about society and it's still about us little planet on the brink we spoke to several leading experts in the 1st. look at just look at the only real sense. is recite the future of architecture welcome to arts and culture where we'll be asking that question and also coming up. versus substance redefining the parisian woman beyond cliches about how the lips and fancy scarves. and transforming i mean nasty old mattress into a belgian waffle or maybe a spicy taco trash fast food sculptures by artist.

but 1st the friday's for future youth movement against climate change has inspired people around the globe including architects here in germany a group called architects for future is pushing to reform construction for instance by renovating buildings instead of demolishing them the goal is to help stop global warming. we're told we need to build more especially living space but the big question is how do you do that sustainably the building industry is responsible for more greenhouse gas emissions than all traffic components and it produces more waste than any industry. 50 percent 40 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in germany and 60 percent of all the waste can be attributed to the building industry and that's a big motivation for us and normally he would enter the him just like under the highland country entirely from architects for future say construction needs to be

more climate friendly to do this they say we need more refurbishing and less demolition. then we need to use a lot more of what's already there no matter how efficiently and sustainably a new building is constructed in terms of c o 2 using what's already there is much better. buildings use a lot of what's called embodied energy the sum of all the energy needed for construction when they're torn down that energy is wasted yet buildings are still being earmarked for demolition like munich's arabella high rise just 50 years old the city's main train station its claim that refurbishing is more expensive than rebuilding but that doesn't factor in the cost of embodied energy. there is another way for its new office space the n.-g. o. cradle to cradle in berlin chose to refurbish with recyclable materials.

but electric idea like requiring is a good example normally we don't see the wiring because. it's built into the structure of the building so it's difficult to replace here we have a surface mounted electrical system inside aluminum piping to create we have a cradle to cradle circuit system you can take apart it's recyclable and materially sound so it's easy to dismantle it or to fernando time must. cradle to cradle is all about recycling management it's the only way to improve the climate balance of the construction industry the principle is not a new one but our throwaway society means it is something of a revolution of. architects for a future there so what is the future for architects my colleague melissa holroyd is here with me now most i can't help but think when we talk about the future and architecture i have all these images in my mind of you know plexiglas bubbles floating somewhere in space and escalators to nowhere and built in robots that is

absolutely not what these people are talking about or little yeah i have these these ideas as well but architects to feature they're all about recycling and they also want to see us move away from building materials such as concrete and towards timber so they're doing yeah there are plenty of advantages with using timba it can be as strong as steel it's lights if it's very it's if you can put up buildings in no time when you use it. everything is recyclable even the sawdust can be recycled there's a very very long list of advantages and worst case scenario when the building is demolished you can also you can always burn as as few really rich is going to say why don't they burn down but i guess that could be an advantage because from here we're looking at a model of housing estate from munich this is 570 apartments all made from. my car and i've enjoyed it there are now another trend that's picking up speed is green spaces in buildings so when we talk about green spaces we talk about grass so

plants trees on the facade all inside. buildings as part of the permanent architecture after months of being looked in those people people's relationship with the environment has become a lot stronger now a lot of ways it's become a lot more important for different people as far as green spaces go outside of buildings there are plenty of changes there too because we're spending more time outside because of corona and p. right eating more outside in the socializing a lot more outside greens it's so good for mental health 0 of agree totally yet it's supposed to help with depression it helps with bio diversity and yet it's good for the environment it's just really think critically we're talking about architecture responding to climate change what about social movements we're seeing a black wives matter me to is their response to those in architecture now yeah from what i've looked at there is that there are going to be sort of different shifts that are going to happen in the current narratives that we're going to see in

architecture so we're going to see more female perspectives will create perspectives more black perspectives in architecture and i'm excited to see how this actually translated to translates and what actually comes out of it right we're going to be moving away from the white man's view of being and seeing what else there could be out there here you know as a horrid thing so much for coming in syria thank you. so how to make use of what's already there well artist creates her art out of trash she finds on the streets of paris transforming the disgusting into something that's. almost appetizing. overside sculptures looking good enough to eat block the sidewalk pursers by can stumble over the. studied art of the song university in paris and developed an interest in waste products of all kinds consumerist and throwaway society is the central theme of our works trash is transformed into

a piece of cake. these objects attract people's attention because they look advertising and at the same time they're familiar all at once an old mattress that people once found disgusting or just overlooked becomes interesting and that's what fascinates me that people will look at something they didn't originally want to see exactly what trends in the objects of art pop up all over the city. worker couldn't imagine making them for an art gallery. here i can set out on my own and create really big objects with just my bare hands and a tool bag. of almost unnoticed and that this is even possible on the street it wouldn't have any meaning for me in a room the contact with people just isn't the same so. my search for junk mainly took me into the multicultural no brainer to strings people don't have such ready access to they are. the more you. can cure walkers work

standard public spaces they can be classed as public property as such they can be taken away by the trash pickup at any time. cutting up trash doesn't exactly fit the stereotypes of parisian women actually the image of the parisian woman as slim elegant smoking and drinking wine and cafes hasn't really changed much since. conquered the silver screen back in the 1950 s. but what makes a real. and her new book a paris based writer takes aim at what she sees as a harmful exclusionary mix this report from sonia found a car in the french capital. paris the city of light feeble for its beauty and its flawless inhabitants the slim stylish and seductive body c.n.n.

or the parisian woman often seen in commercials to sell clothes both fumes and beauty products. it's a studio type the more divvy knows will the fashion design no worked for karl lagerfeld for nearly 2 decades before launching is only. he says the luxury industry relies heavily on the image of the body see in a sauna fight by a long list of style icon that isn't us without in hair invisible makeup and seemingly effortless shaking it's a look at tired that's remained unchanged over the decades. and represented as a pin the white woman. was someone who blends elegance and freeness we talked a little bit because we thought we wanted it. to have it. but the myth is being questioned with critics saying it creates an unattainable ideal one that excludes the majority of french with. american writer and journalist lindsay

moved to paris nearly 15 years ago she soon grew tired of the studio types of the body repeated in films and advertising campaigns. her latest book the new was released sided with debates about rachel justice and french identity portrays a diverse set of women living and working in perilous greater equality in sport because it's another area where france has a long way to go the book features activists writers artists designers entrepreneurs a female rabbi even a boxing champion some from immigrant backgrounds others from the suburbs some from other countries who have made progress the whole what i mean is to show a plurality of faces and voices that reflect who actually lives here and that was my goal because these are women who are you know because of what they go through and because of their unique experience in the city they are you know motivated to contribute to the city in different ways and try to make it better for those of us

who live here but also those who visit the 19th at all the small in northern paris it's one of the city's most diverse neighborhoods. it's a little quieter and anti racism activists grew up and still lives she's one of the most prominent women featured in the book and is well known here she's one of the few black journalists and commentators on television speaking out on hot button issues of police violence and systemic racism. has long rejected studio types of the body saying the representation of women and minorities in french society remains problematic so i have been kind of struggling for very long time to make myself identified as a french woman and as a parish and i think that all the cliches that are perpetrated by the media by also the advertising. really raises a raised women like me so women of color but also women who are.

elusive. perhaps the enjoying myth and its dominance of the city's image is finally beginning to lose that she now before we go i want to leave you with what may be the strangest culture story of the week in italy a 200 year old statue of napoleon sister needs an extreme pedicure after an austrian tourist sat on her the man was apparently so enticed by a historic plaster copy of this marble that he decided to recline with her for a photo after her toes snapped off security footage of the museum shows the man seemingly realizing what he's done to artist i'm tony work than making a getaway. but the story doesn't end there because of the coronavirus museum guests

in italy now have to register their contact details so all police had to do was call the man up the toast napper made a teary confession and as promised to cover the damage that's all for arts and culture this time but do find us on facebook and twitter at v.w. culture bye bye for now. heidelberg as romantic as ever but are staying away because of the corona virus and. what is that for locals and so tourists alike willing to travel to be likely to. visit a dream destination for people from all over the world well maybe even more romantic than before you know.
