The corridor.

The corridor issue is the longest sustained preoccupation we have had in three years: six weeks on the architecture of the in-between. Not the rooms where things happen — the basements and passages and second hours of a film, the place where a life’s actual work seems to take place.

Wong Kar-wai’s particular corridor. Murakami’s. The slow cinema of the approach and the deliberate withholding. Edited from Tokyo by Mira Asai, with dispatches from the reading-room residency and a new pathway through eight works built on the same withheld geometry.
