This cover story remembers major artists who died in 2025 and reflects on how their rule-breaking work made them timeless. It highlights David Lynch’s surreal cinema and belief that life’s mystery is at the heart of art; writers like Mario Vargas Llosa and Seojung-in who saw literature as perpetual rebellion; architect Frank Gehry who challenged architectural norms; and actors such as Diane Keaton and Kim Ji-mi who defied conventions. The piece argues that art survives because creators capture the strange within the everyday, and remembering them turns death’s finality into a pause. (RIP = Rest In Peace) The article notes related video tributes on the ARTE website.
