	GENIUS IN A BOTTLE. French artist Abraham Poincheval (b. 1972), who is known for locking himself up in unexpected structures—an armor, a stuffed bear, a rock—has decided to repeat the experience inside a giant bottle, moored to the dock of the Saint-Denis canal, in Paris.

You would think that once a world heritage site, always a world heritage site, right? Well, apparently not. Liverpool’s waterfront was delisted by UNESCO in 2021, Stonehenge was on the verge thanks to a (now-cancelled) tunnel and now it’s the Tower of London’s status that’s under threat.
