Trump dazzles right-wing media with bigoted State of the Union
Tuesday night’s State of the Union address was a MAGA rally in a fancy room. For one hour and forty-seven minutes — the longest State of the Union ever, a record the president apparently considers an achievement — Donald Trump stood before a joint session of Congress to lie and brag his way through a nation he has spent a year methodically destabilizing. There was no recalibration nor hint of strategic retreat, only chest-thumping and grievance. Right-wing media lapped it up. Trump turned the address into a two-hour variety show, complete with medals awarded, standing ovations and carefully staged anecdotes about “regular Americans.” He bragged about ending diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and about kicking two million people off food stamps. He applauded a World War II veteran who liberated an internment camp — a genuinely moving moment — while simultaneously cheering new detention facilities for migrants and asylum seekers. He claimed gas is down to $1.85 a gallon in some places, a figure ridiculously divorced from reality. He said he “ended eight wars” …
Queen Mary of Denmark Dazzles in Jewelry She Bought Herself at Auction
For her first state trip of the year, Queen Mary of Denmark has selected some of the most special jewelry in her collection. On Tuesday night, for the gala banquet held in honor of her visit by the Estonian president Alar Karis, Mary paired a 2015 Prada dress with the diamond tiara she wore on her wedding day to King Frederik. The second stop of their trip arrived when the King and Queen of Denmark attended a state dinner in Lithuania. For the evening, Mary of Denmark donned a dress by Elie Saab, a designer that is new to the closet of the Australia-born monarch. The burgundy gown, adorned with a cape and lengthy sleeves, was accessorized with a very special tiara—one that Queen Mary of Denmark bought herself at a 2012 auction. This necklace, which can also be worn as a tiara, dates back to the early nineteenth century and is composed of diamonds, rubies and spinels, mounted on a gold and silver structure. Mary acquired it, along with matching earrings—which she also wore …
Why Art Deco Still Dazzles 100 Years On
Before ornament was declared a crime and excised from modernists’ vocabularies, it had one last spectacular gasp in the glitz and glamor of Art Deco. One hundred years on, celebrations of the movement emphasize its complexity. Sitting between a dazzling milieu of precious luxury and an industrial age recovering from a great war, Art Deco asks us to reckon with the place of art and design in modern life. Art Deco was consolidated in a 1925 international design exhibition in Paris, and it is in the French capital that the most elaborate showcase of the movement’s history and legacy is now on view to mark the anniversary. The Musée des Arts Decoratifs’ (MAD) “1925–2025: One Hundred Years of Art Deco” fills three floors with over 1,000 objects. The idea to hold the original exhibition showcasing French innovation in the decorative arts was first formulated in 1911, but World War I meant it was repeatedly postponed. When “The International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts” finally opened (the shorthand term Art Deco wouldn’t appear until …
