The creation, a panoramic picture of the Malecon with inserted images of icebergs floating nearby, is titled 'Fresh Air'. The Havana Biennial is a major event for contemporary art, attracting artists and curators from all over the world and running until June 11.

The Associated Press reports from WELLINGTON, New Zealand:

A Russian fishing vessel with 32 crew members was taking on water near Antarctica on Friday. Heavy sea ice was hampering rescue efforts, and officials said it could be four or five days before anybody reaches the ship to try to rescue the crew.

The Sparta was listing at 13 degrees next to the Antarctic ice shelf in the Ross Sea, according to Maritime New Zealand. The agency said that the crew was safe and was throwing cargo overboard to lighten the ship, and that some of the crew had boarded lifeboats as a precaution.

The ship has a 1-foot hole in the hull about 5 feet below the water line, the agency said.

"It's a very remote, unforgiving environment," said Andrew Wright, executive secretary of the Australian-based Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources, which has licensed the Sparta to catch toothfish in the Southern Ocean.

Wright said he didn't know what caused the hole, although he added that an iceberg "would be a good candidate." Read the full story.

msnbc.com reports:

Scientists on an aerial survey of Antarctica have come across an 18-mile-long break in an ice shelf — a sign that the sensitive area is giving birth to an iceberg that will be larger than New York City.

"We are actually now witnessing how it happens," Michael Studinger, project scientist with NASA's IceBridge survey, said in a statement Wednesday. "It’s part of a natural process but it’s pretty exciting to be here and actually observe it while it happens."

It's remarkable that the tsunami sent a wave halfway around the world to shake free such a massive block of ice. NASA says that the swells of water swarmed toward an ice shelf in Antarctica, 8,000 miles away. It took about 18 hours for the waves to reach Antarctica. According to historical records, this particular piece of ice hadn't budged in at least 46 years before the tsunami came along.
