Argentine artist Leandro Erlich has created “Pulled by the Roots” -- a massive construction crane carrying an entire house mid-air over the Karlsruhe Market Place in Karlsruhe, Germany. With a root system dangling from beneath it, the house takes its title literally. Known internationally for his hyper-real sculptures, Erlich often uses architectonic elements to generate discussion and statements on present issues. With Karlsruhe’s current project of relocating its tram system underground, citizens have seen major disruptions to their pedestrian life, with construction cranes becoming an implacable figure in the skyline.
By utilizing a crane in his intervention, Erlich turns this common construction tool into a piece of art and entertainment for passers-by who at first may "think that the crane driver has made a mistake." The project also looks at the relationship of architecture and development with the earth. By divorcing the house from the ground and revealing an organic relationship, Erlich creates a novel perspective. The tension of the crane as it holds up the home highlights this balance between the human dimension of building and the natural dimension from which it comes, reminding us of the importance of both. As our society and planet change constantly, this piece reminds us that an organic element is vital to our survival, and that our culture is inextricably linked with nature. The exhibition is part of ZKM's “The City is the Star - Art at the Construction Site," which invited international artists to intervene at construction sites with sculptures, performances and interventions.

German judges ruled Tuesday that Apple’s method for unlocking the iPhone didn’t reach a high enough level of sophistication need to be awarded patent protection, according to a report from Bloomberg. “This user-friendly display was already suggested by the state of the art,” the Karlsruhe-based court wrote. “The contested patent thus isn’t based on an invention.” Slide to unlock has been an iOS feature since the original iPhone launched way back in 2007. Some tweaks were made to it with the release of iOS 7, but the feature has gone largely unchanged since. Apple patented the sliding screen gesture, but a German federal court ruled in 2013 that the patent was invalid. The company appealed that decision, which has now been upheld by the country’s top court.CZK Christliches Zentrum Karlsruhe | evangelische FreikircheDie Reise in die 2.Lebenshälfte beginnt . . . wenn wir langsam erkennen, dass wir unseren Nachmittag & Abend des Lebens nicht mit dem selben Programm leben können, wie wir durch den Morgen gekommen sind!

New York (dpa) - Der familienfreundliche «Lego Batman» und der Erotikfilm «Fifty Shades of Grey - Gefährliche Liebe» haben sich am Wochenende in Nordamerika behauptet. Der Trickfilm blieb mit geschätzten Neueinnahmen von 45 Millionen Dollar (42 Millionen Euro) an der Spitze der amerikanischen und kanadischen Kinocharts. Er dürfte nach dem langen Wochenende in den USA bereits die 100-Millionen-Dollar-Marke genommen haben, sagte der «Hollywood Reporter» voraus. Die USA gedenken am Montag ihrer früheren Präsidenten George Washington und Abraham Lincoln.
Der Feiertag «Presidents' Day» sorgt traditionell für vollere Kinokassen. Die Fortsetzung von «Fifty Shades of Grey» mit dem Untertitel «Gefährliche Liebe» legte 20,9 Millionen Dollar zu und folgt dem «Lego Batman» mit geschätzten Gesamteinnahmen von 92,9 Millionen Dollar dicht auf den Fersen. Beide sind zurzeit auch in deutschen Kinos. Enttäuschend fiel das Ergebnis für den kostspieligen Fantasy-Action-Film «The Great Wall» von Regisseur Zhang Yimou mit Matt Damon in der Hauptrolle aus. Das mit einem 150-Millionen-Dollar-Etat (141 Millionen Euro) gedrehte Leinwandspektakel über Monster an der Chinesischen Mauer spielte bei seinem Nordamerika-Debüt zunächst nur 18,1 Millionen Dollar ein und landete auf Rang drei der Charts. Der Feiertag dürfte das Ergebnis jedoch noch auf 21 Millionen Dollar verbessern, meint der «Hollywood Reporter». In Deutschland läuft «The Great Wall» schon seit Wochen. Der Actionfilm «John Wick: Kapitel 2» mit Keanu Reeeves rutschte mit 16,5 Millionen Dollar an seinem zweiten Wochenende einen Platz auf den vierten Rang ab. Ihm folgt die neue Komödie «Fist Fight» (12,2 Millionen Dollar) mit Ice Cube, Charlie Day und Tracy Morgan, die als Lehrer an einer von Entlassungen bedrohten Schule um ihren Job fürchten.
