The gas ceiling

A helium roof that rises and falls with the weather? Rem Koolhaas's Serpentine Pavilion is a joyous extravagance, says Steve Rose

 

Monday July 3, 2006
The Guardian

 

Musicians can jam, artists can doodle, actors can improvise, but when architects try to loosen up, they usually end up getting sued. Architecture cannot afford to be vague. Grey areas, margins of error, middle ground - these ambiguous spaces are enemy territory to a discipline that demands precision and certainty. But there is, at least, a little patch of parkland in London where some lucky architects can go to play. This is the lawn of the Serpentine Gallery, in Kensington Gardens, where every summer a new pavilion more outlandish than the last briefly blossoms. It started as a delightful seasonal diversion, but after six years the Serpentine's pavilion programme has become one of the best ideas in the art world. That little patch of lawn is now an architectural test site of global significance.

Canvassing opinion

Radio 4 fires debate over best painting

Cognoscenti may dismiss the list as the work of a country that does not know much about art but knows what it likes on a nice birthday card.

Populists may hail it as a triumph of popular taste over critics, conceptualists and postmodernists. And regionalists may regret that only two of the works on the list are in galleries outside London.

The Today programme and National Gallery summer scheme to find Britain's greatest painting was billed as an "exciting, inclusive chance to celebrate art" but it is already stirring up some silly season controversy.

MP's diary

Crèche landing

I had to vote and I was breastfeeding, so my baby got an early introduction to the House of Commons bar. Parliament desperately needs a crèche, argues Kitty Ussher

Monday August 22, 2005


Gradually the House of Commons is yielding up its secrets to new MPs like me: things you never know about a place until you're actually in the thick of it. My latest discovery before we all went off for summer recess was an intriguing room tucked away off one of the main House of Commons corridors with the words "Lady Members' Room" inscribed the door. As the first ever female MP for Burnley, I can safely say that none of my predecessors has ever been through that door. On the other side it's all very pleasant. Telly, comfy chairs, desks, a handful of "lady MPs" having a natter, a shower room and a bed. The bed amuses me. Surely the main time when MPs want to go to sleep is during those silly occasions when they have to stay up voting all night. In which case, who out of the 127 female MPs gets the bed? Do we have to queue?

The bright stuff

In 1979, this newspaper published a list of 80 young people The Observer predicted would define the country's culture, politics and economics for a generation. Many went on to become household names. Now, 25 years on, we've decided to repeat the exercise. After months of nominations and hours of debate, here's our new selection of 80 prodigiously talented young people - scientists, DJs, novelists, architects, politicians - who we believe will shape our lives in the early 21st century

Rock and royal legend

Paul Burrell's book about his life as Princess Diana's butler contains a mass of page-turning material. You only have to count the space which rival tabloids have given to the book's serialisation in the Daily Mirror to recognise that Mr Burrell's story is of huge interest to the public. Whether it contains material that meets a sterner public interest test is altogether a tougher call. Mr Burrell was once famously described by the princess as her "rock". He still pretends from time to time to be Goody Two-Shoes, as in his description of his first sight of his former employer's corpse - "What I witnessed before me was indescribable and it is not appropriate to explain further." But such coyness is not typical of Mr Burrell these days. For the most part, his book is an industrial strength bean-spilling exercise, just in time to ride the wave of Christmas book sales, and for which he has been massively rewarded.
