We're absolutely stunned by Ralph Ziman's new project, which covers a MiG-21 fighter jet in tens of millions of glass beads. Five years in the making, this collaborative work is the final piece in the artist's 'Weapons of Mass Production' series.

Bottoms Premieres at DI Glasgow: Reclaiming the Can-Can
Bottoms Up: Two Destination Language Reclaim the Can-Can at Dance International Glasgow What do we do with a dance that has been choreographed into obedience? For Katherina Radeva and Alister Lownie of Two Destination Language, the answer lies not in nostalgia but in disruption. In Bottoms, premiering 14–15 May at Tramway as part of Dance International Glasgow, the duo confront the legacy of the can-can with irreverence, joy, and a deeply political edge.
