Set in the depression in Mississippi, three shambolic convicts (George Clooney, John Turturro and Tim Blake Nelson) escape their chain-gang and embark on a quest for treasure and their freedom. Along the way, they meet many colourful Southern characters, and of course learn where their real fortune lies. An exciting and entertaining blend of high adventure, humour and heartfelt emotion, O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a unique modern-day spin on Homer's classic tale of The Odyssey.

The Ottoman Way of Serving Coffee

Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.

In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art.
