"ALL I CAN LEAVE YOU IS THIS GLITTER" refers to more than just material possession but the impression of memories and ephemerality. The exhibition responds to the maximalist visuals of a family party, and its "glitter" or remnants of identity carried through migration while settling in new places. The work reflects subcultures formed in the process of integration in Southern California as it weaves together elements of architecture, personal adornments, and symbolic motifs from the homes of the Latin American diaspora.

In an email in March, Canada head coach Bev Priestman said spying was "the difference between winning and losing." The team is now playing without her on its quest for a second straight Olympic gold.

In this captivating, skewed World War II drama from Nagisa Oshima, David Bowie regally embodies Celliers, a British officer interned by the Japanese as a POW. Rock star Ryuichi Sakamoto (who also composed this film’s hypnotic score) plays the camp commander, obsessed with the mysterious blond major, while Tom Conti is the British lieutenant colonel Lawrence, who tries to bridge the emotional and language divides between captor and prisoner. Also featuring actor-director Takeshi Kitano in his first dramatic role, "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" is a multilayered, brutal, at times erotic tale of culture clash, and one of Oshima’s greatest successes.
