Such an interpretation gets tricky, of course, because it would be a diminishment of the deceased's humanity, as well as the friars' intentions, to treat their bodies as found objects, or their decomposition as process, or their arrangement in the catacombs as an installation.

Hopefully none of us ever have to encounter the creature this lady comes face to face with at the end... This chilling footage was part of several documentaries — including an ABC Family Halloween special about the Catacombs of Paris — that were broadcast in the early 2000s.

From here—and, really, I'm not going to insult your ability to use your ears and eyes—Sudano opens the treasure chest of meme-ready songs, enters the catacombs, and emerges with a medley to rival any of the canvas of the Louvre or Greek statues of NYC's Met.

Monk's work is all atmosphere and attitude, irresistibly so; his pictures are filled with the sweat, smells of smoke and beer, and bounce of jazz and pop that filled The Catacombs as these 24-hour party people packed all their restlessness and desire into a single night's romp.

"The reason for restoring the Catacombs and the Lobby to the Breakfast Room is to comply with Soane's wishes — enshrined by Private Act of Parliament — that the museum should remain unchanged from the time of his death," John Bridges, curatorial assistant at Sir John Soane's Museum, told Hyperallergic.

In his life, Hujar had few substantial solo shows, attracting little press notice, and only one book, " Portraits in Life and Death " (210), which unwisely juxtaposed two splendid series: portraits of people in his circle, half of them reclining, and shots of ancient corpses in the Palermo catacombs.

If you climb down into a particular section of catacombs at Saqqara, Dr. Wasef said, "the rooms are filled from floor to ceiling" with mummified ibises once proffered to Thoth in hopes that the deity would help devotees improve their writing skills or take down a nasty boss.

In following his journey — from New York's subways to the Parisian catacombs and from Australian ochre mines to the prehistoric caves of the French Pyrenees — it soon becomes clear that Hunt is less interested in what he actually finds underground than in his own obsession with this dark world.

Behind most great heists is an intricately hatched plot: If you're a professional thief looking to jack rare wine by tunneling through the French catacombs, rob a truck full of iPhones on the highway, or steal a massive gold coin from a museum, a lot of meticulous planning is involved.

In recent years, American photographer and director Matthew Rolston—best known for shooting glamorous portraits and music videos for (living) celebrities like Beyoncé, Janet Jackson, Mary J.

There is a particular moment in the grand story of music discovery, where a person, no longer moved by what they're currently listening to, has a tape slid across a school bus aisle by an older kid, or blows the dust off a record jacket unearthed in the catacombs of their childhood home.

In a chapter called "Invisible Cities," he dares to follow a fearless shape-shifter of a guide into the catacombs of Paris, where in 1786 the city began "evacuating" its cemeteries, transferring the remains of more than six million corpses into a maze of tunnels and rooms dug out of the limestone.

Smash the exterior of an institution and you may reveal catacombs of cruelty, shame, sickness, all the terrible things people with power can do to those without it in the corridor of a hotel suite, inside an office, inside a home, in small places you feel as though you are not meant to be.

A bizarre but equally absorbing inversion of the life-art nexus can be found in the well-known Catacombs of the Capuchins, a vast crypt resting beneath a monastery where 8000 corpses are interred along with more than 1200 mummified remains, which are arrayed in open coffins or hung in standing positions along the walls.

In the anteroom and main display space of the gallery, Hocking has assembled a new installation work, clearly motivated by time spent in the Paris catacombs on the same trip to France that facilitated the Babel installation, and his longstanding interest and research into the Copper Complex civilization, which occupied ancient lands that are today known as Michigan.

It also highlights his studies of French Literature at the Université Paris-Sorbonne in 1963, as well as his underground explorations of the Paris Catacombs and other sites in Paris, and peaks with what I consider Matta-Clark's majestic masterpiece: the ambitious and comical "Conical Intersect" (1975) — a massive work he made for the Paris Biennale in 1975.

Of course, in Dark Souls itself, that didn't always deter players; plenty of people didn't notice the difference between the hollows guarding the path to Undead Burg (the critical path of the game), and the skeletons guarding the path to the Catacombs (a late-game area that can be accessed earlier, as an optional challenge for experienced players).

The adventures up for grabs will be a candlelight dinner in the catacombs beneath Old St. Patrick's Cathedral in Manhattan; a balloon ride over Miami with a photographer to help you capture the perfect photo; hors d'oeuvres and cocktails on a steam train ride through canyons in Austin; and a tightrope walking lesson on a hilltop ropes course with ocean views in Los Angeles.

Ultimately the novel can't entirely escape this element; but Erpenbeck's rigor, her crystalline human insight, her exhilaratingly synthetic imagination — uniting Grimm's fairy tales, the medieval catacombs of Rzeszow, Poland, a great line from Brecht ("He who laughs has not yet received the terrible news"), and the implications of Niger's significant uranium deposits — combine to make "Go, Went, Gone" an important novel, both aesthetically and morally.

Though he is less ostentatious than his central European cousins, the lavishly bejeweled ancient skeletons rescued from oblivion in 2013 by art historian Paul Koudounaris' book Heavenly Bodies, Aurelius shares their essential origin story: he, too, was dug up by the Vatican from the Roman catacombs, at some point after the 16th century Protestant Reformation, and brought to a faraway altar to serve as a Catholic saint.

If you doubt that Stahelski sees his own job in these terms, look no further than how he lights each scene: Even neon demon Nicolas Winding Refn must be taking notes at the way Stahelski and his crew place bright-fuchsia fluorescent tubes in a New York subway, poltergeist-blue spotlights beneath the arches of ancient Roman catacombs, and nightclub-worthy accents throughout an elaborate hall of mirrors art exhibit.

That statue, carved from marble in the second century A.D., was pulled from a hole by a farmer in the 19th century, not far from the catacombs; while now her body is far away in Paris, on display in the Louvre, her arms may still be on Milos, or at the bottom of the Aegean, or some other place, waiting to be discovered, to reach out and take hold of someone.

Before Trump's election, anyone who claimed to have been a member of "the resistance" was most likely over the age of 85, a veteran of anti-fascist struggles in France and other Nazi-occupied territories during World War II. That resistance involved armed conflict and personal risk of the bleakest sort, with guerrilla fighters hiding in the catacombs of Paris while Hitler's forces did their worst above ground.

THE ROAD TRICK on Red Bull TV. In this new series, Adam Trent travels across Europe and North Africa, where he uses magic as a way to meet the residents: partying with a boat regatta in Budapest, performing tricks in a Vienna opera house, tripping across rooftops and venturing into illegal catacombs in Paris, and communing with a shaman — who introduces him to a magic more ancient and exotic than his own — in Morocco.

Vincke's big idea was to have the party's aggressive conversation choices get the mage to initiate combat and charge them, which would bring him close to the edge of a deep pit leading to some catacombs at the bottom of the goblin lair (this kind of stacked, vertically-connected level architecture is something Larian are making a point to design for, which makes me very excited to see what the city of Baldur's Gate itself will look like).
