“For an art lover, New York is a confusion of riches. In galleries right now you’ll find — along with lots of painting — miniature theaters, an indoor pool, a chairlift, poetry-writing clocks, feature-length films, telepathic emails and an entire library of books that should have been written but weren’t. Keeping track of such variety takes work. @nytimes critics fanned out across the city on a group mission to make sense of all of the options. @jakenaughton photographed the artist @lorenzmarie, right, known for her works on the city’s waterways, lounging poolside at @recessart with 2 former students. “Flow Pool,” an elliptical enclosure you can float in, is a centerpiece for projects and events involving writers, musicians and scientists — and for drop-in “pool parties.” Visit the link in our profile to see our spring gallery guide.” By nytimes on Instagram.

The Tropical Islands resort, just south of Berlin, Germany, is an old abandoned aircraft hangar that was transformed into an indoor water park. The theme park, which is 66,000 square feet in size, includes several swimming pools, a four-story tall water slide, a tropical lagoon, themed cabins (including modern and adventure-themed rooms), medicinal saunas and steam baths, a mud bath spa, a meditation room, and the largest indoor rain forest in the world. Buildings are created in the styles of several different cultures, including southeast Asian, Spanish, Native American, Brazilian, Cambodian, and Australian Aboriginie.

Just Like Fire by Pink
Pink has never been a blockbuster star the way other divas of her era have. We’re much more likely to see a performance from Taylor Swift, or a third one from Beyonce, at the Super Bowl, for example, than from Pink. But sixteen years after her debut studio album, Pink has demonstrated a staying power worthy of respect. Some may attribute this to the strong firebrand persona she’s maintained over the years, which comes through on her new song Just Like Fire, from the soundtrack to the film Alice: Through The Looking Glass. The song has self-assertive lyrics delivered in a somewhat sentimental tone, with a grandiose chorus that reminds me of Katy Perry’s Roar. I probably won’t end up seeing the movie, but I won’t mind if this song comes on my pop music Pandora playlist.
