For many people a chair is just a chair, but for Argentine architect Martin Huberman, one particular type of chair is a vital part of his country’s artistic contribution to the world, and he wants people to have a close encounter with his creation at the Coachella Valley Arts and Music Festival. Using hundreds of…

This time last year, the roles were reversed. The Nets finished the 2020-21 regular season with the No. 2 seed, while the Boston Celtics defeated the Washington Wizards in the first game of the play-in tournament to secure the East’s No. 7 spot. The Nets, with a roster headlined by Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and…

Who doesn’t find themselves singing “In your Easter bonnet, with all the frills upon it…” on this particular Sunday? Well, me for one, ever since I learned the real story. You know how you hear something as a child and come up with your own version of it, even though it has nothing to do…

By The Associated Press VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis on Saturday invoked “gestures of peace in these days marked by the horror of war” in an Easter vigil homily in St. Peter’s Basilica attended by the mayor of the occupied Ukrainian city of Melitopol and three Ukrainian parliamentarians. The pontiff noted that while “many writers…

LOS ANGELES — Now, if everyone can get healthy, the pressure’s really on. The Clippers exited the 2021-22 stage Friday, having fought to an end that wasn’t all that bitter, considering they’d had to play so much of the year without both of their leading men. With the Clippers’ season-ending 105-101 loss to the New…

Bam Adebayo was back Saturday at Miami Heat practice essentially feeling the same way he felt the previous six days he spent in NBA health-and-safety protocols . . . perfectly fine.

Q. Hi Honk: Any chance this could be answered quickly? We’ve just sold our house. Yeah! We’re moving by June and we’ll need to register our vehicles in the state of Washington. Because we just paid California for vehicle registration, any possibility of getting the state to reimburse us for the months of registration we’re…

Let’s get something straight with the Nets: This isn’t about one of them. This is about both of them. All of them really. The whole Brooklyn Nets thing. It starts with Kevin Durant and Dr. Kyrie Irving, of course. Package deal, just like always. They came here together, for big change, with big expectations, and…

LOS ANGELES — It should have been a hollow moment, and to a degree, I’m sure it was. The Clippers were one quarter away from an appointment in Phoenix on Sunday night. They’d put together another of the comebacks for which they’ve become known, and they had New Orleans on the ropes … and then,…

Throughout the festival’s 21-year history, perhaps no other artist in the Coachella-verse has produced as many of those elusive Coachella moments — those special memories that only happen in the desert — as Arcade Fire. And you can go ahead and notch the band’s surprise set at the Mojave Tent on Friday, April 15 –…

Last week, I took to Twitter with a question: What are your favorite titles from The New York Review Books? I also asked, even though it almost sounded like a joke, what colors people liked on the covers. And let me tell you, people responded. If you’re unfamiliar, the NYRB book series combines Edwin Frank’s editorial…

Now is the time to start planting corn. Unlike fruit trees, however, where an orchard with more than one variety of apple, avocado, or apricot tree will result in larger harvests than if only one variety is planted, it is not a good idea to plant two different corn varieties that ripen at the same…

Shortly before big-league camp broke three weeks ago, Chicago Cubs pitcher Ethan Roberts tried using a new grip for his slider. The suggestion came from assistant pitching coach Daniel Moskos. Given Roberts’ natural supinated wrist position for his fastball release and how well the right-hander can spin a baseball, Moskos thought Roberts’ slider wasn’t his…
