Today’s AJ Highlights

Good morning: Here are today’s highlights:

  • Why Did Gustav Klimt Use So Much Gold Leaf? “Turns out, it ran in the family. – Artnet” Read more
  • Back To The Future: The Atlantic Magazine Returns To Monthly Print “The decision to restore our print publication frequency to pre-internet levels was not made lightly, but it also seemed logical, given the strength and reach of our magazine, and the wide acclaim it receives.” – The Atlantic” Read more
  • Met Chief Slams New York Times Chief Music Critic “On Monday night, Met director Peter Gelb returned fire, strafing the Gray Lady — and its chief classical critic, Zachary Woolfe — and claiming there was “an agenda” behind the brutal review. – New York Post” Read more
  • John Eliot Gardiner Undercutting His Old Ensembles Is Disgraceful, And So Are The Presenters Going Along With It “Andrew Mellor: “At best, he looks like a bitter fool. It’s a shame for him, for anyone who has a modicum of respect for his talent and for anyone who has done good work with him. But it’s shameful for an industry apparently happy to sweep his abuse under the carpet.” – Classical Music (UK)” Read more
  • Why 1984’s “Terminator” Movie Still Resonates Today “The film’s legacy in pop culture is enduring. Cameron’s dark vision of the future created a cultural shock that continues to resonate to this day. “I’ll be back,” remains one of the most iconic one-liners in movie history. – The Conversation” Read more

As usual, jump down to read all the stories we collected today, as organized by topic. See you tomorrow.
