Craig Blankenhorn Photos
A city cigarette smoker captured by Blankenhorn... could it be Mr. Big?
“Shadows and Reflections” by Craig Blankenhorn The SPACE Art Gallery 749 S. 8th St. Philadelphia Oct. 17, 2024
The silhouette of a cigarette-smoking man caught my eye — after Craig Blankenhorn’s camera captured his shadow.
I felt like I was wandering through a noir film set when I last visited The SPACE Art Gallery, where Blankenhorn — a veteran still photographer who’s worked on superlatively iconic television shows like Sex and The City, The Sopranos, and Succession — is displaying his personal artwork for the first time in a solo exhibit titled “Shadows and Reflections.”
Netflix's Jewish Matchmaker Aleeza Ben Shalom interviews a volunteer about their dating desires.

When streaming star and professional matchmaker Aleeza Ben Shalom asked our synagogue’s cantor about what he’s looking for in a partner, he didn’t stumble: She’s gotta love Pavarotti, accept that his weekends are booked at shul, and be a committed Zionist.

SQUIDGAME: THETRIALEXPERIENCE Television City Los Angeles Ongoing since Dec. 6, 2023
I am not the first person to say this: we are living in hell. It’s the reason we fell in love with the popular K‑drama series Squid Game (2021) on Netflix. Crippling debt and callous hooded figures plotting your death for sadistic entertainment in a game feel like melodramatic but accurate metaphors for our current moment. And yes, I, too, love playing games and have no money. Squid Game: The Trial Experience, the latest immersive experience designed to recreate the hit television series in Los Angeles, is less interested in mirroring our political unrest or offering a heavy-handed metaphor for capitalism. (Worth noting: The ticket was 54 dollars.) Instead, it plays out like a Dave & Buster’s for fascism cosplay.

When my friend told me she’d gotten tickets to The Steve Wilkos Show, I jumped at the opportunity to go. I love drama, I love daytime television, and I love new experiences. This was all three in one, as I’d never been part of a live studio audience for a television show — let alone a show that is directly descended from The Jerry Springer Show.
