Insect Love
There's nothing dry and academic about the visual art of literature professor Brian Kubarycz. by Brian Staker A lot of artists provoke discussions about their body of work, but an upcoming exhibition debuts pictures that take the somatic as their subject like few locals working today. Brian Kubarycz has over the last several years accumulated a portfolio that is primed for viewing now and, while not pulling any punches, still manages to intrigue and surprise. He arrived at painting through an indirect route, as a sidestep from his studies of literature. Kubarycz has been studying and teaching for more than 10 years at the University of Utah, where he earned a Ph.D. in English literature (creative writing) and an MFA in creative writing. He is an associate instructor in the honors program at the U, where he has been recognized with the Distinguished Honors Professor of the Year, Tanner Fellowship in the Humanities, and the Steffenson-Cannon Scholarship in the Humanities awards.

War film captures different point of view
The most popular World War II films are told from the perspective of the winners. Like the war itself, they're epic, noisy and violent. No matter how much corn syrup is splattered around the set, at least audiences get to leave feeling good about the ultimate outcome. Enter "Letters from Iwo Jima," an American World War II film in the tradition of "All Quiet on the Western Front," telling its story from the point of view of the Axis, not the Allies. "Letters from Iwo Jima" is part two of Clint Eastwood's ambitious project, an attempt to tell the story of the battle of Iwo Jima from two sides, American and Japanese. The first chapter, "Flags of Our Fathers," did a fair job of illustrating the dark side of selling a war to the American people. Ultimately, "Letters from Iwo Jima" is even darker for its brutal exploration of the losing side of war.
