(Courtesy photo) Jeffrey Kaczmarczyk \| jkaczmarczyk@mlive.com By Jeffrey Kaczmarczyk \| jkaczmarczyk@mlive.com The Grand Rapids Press Email the author \| Follow on Twitter on September 14, 2015 at 10:41 AM, updated September 14, 2015 at 11:29 AM GRAND RAPIDS, MI - A controversial ArtPrize 2015 entry created using the burned remains of three holy texts may be out of the seventh annual event. But artist Nabil Mousa has a lifeline if he can find another venue willing to take his sculpture titled "Paradise Built on the Bones of the Slaughtered," a set of three welded towers displaying ashes of the Bible, the Koran and the Torah. Its intended venue was Grand Rapids City Hall. But the city has since decided against accepting it. The Syrian-American artist from Atlanta is in an unusual situation with the $500,000 exhibition and competition opening Sept. 23. "As far as he knew, he did everything right," said Kevin Buist, director of exhibitions for ArtPrize. Earlier this year, Mousa registered as an ArtPrize artist and was invited to install his sculpture in Grand Rapids City Hall by curator Robert App, one of several curators hired by the City of Grand Rapids to oversee ArtPrize exhibitions in 10 city-owned locations. However, the curator's selections for city-owned property were to be approved by the city's Arts Advisory Committee, a process that was supposed to have happened in mid-May but did not. Ultimately, the Arts Advisory Committee rejected the work, but after the close of ArtPrize's Connections process to match artists and venues. ArtPrize is attempting to help Mousa find another location for his work for the seventh annual urban exhibition and $500,000 contest. "We have to be a little careful because we don't find artists venues, but this is a special circumstance," Buist said. Related: After ArtPrize tosses its first artist, look back at 12 past controversies Mousa, who was raised a Christian, said his sculpture isn't an expression of anger against religion. "There's a message behind it," Mousa said in a released statement. "And that message is that people of different religions are not really applying what those holy books tell them." Christianity, Islam and Judaism all share the same God and profess to preach tolerance and mutual respect. Yet the three are embroiled in perpetual inter-conflict. "They're more notable today for their mutual antagonism, ill-will and violent acts," Mousa said. "My answer to that is these burned tomes that enact a kind of cleansing ritual in which self-reflection about faith and mutual responsibility is the hopeful end result." "Paradise Built on the Bones of the Slaughtered" illustrates his disenfranchisement with religion beginning with his experience in coming out gay to his family years ago. "It was really very hard for me to cope with that," he said. Though a naturalized American who has lived most of his life in the United States, the 49-year-old artist experienced the same discrimination others of Middle Eastern ancestry experienced following the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001. The City of Grand Rapids has weathered controversy in the past over art installed on city property. In 2013, artist David Dodde's ArtPrize installation, "Fleurs et riviere," was a temporary intervention that placed removable flowers on Alexander Calder's stabile, "La Grande Vitesse," in Vandenburg Plaza. Related: ArtPrize Calder controversy: City's two wrong decisions don't make a right A spokesman from the Calder Foundation objected to an artist imposing, even temporarily, on another artist's work. Grand Rapids city officials, which previously had approved the ArtPrize project, relented and directed Dodde to remove his work. Buist said he hopes an alternative venue can be found for Mousa's sculpture. "We're doing what we can," Buist said. "One way or another, we hope it'll all shake out."

The creation of this magnificent palace garden is associated with the construction boom around 1720. The garden was designed by František Maxmilián Kaňka, who first renovated the palace for Jan Josef, Count of Vrtba and then created the garden. Unlike the garden which retained its Baroque style without any significant changes, the Vrtba Palace underwent radical changes during the following centuries. The statue and sculpture decorations were created by Matyáš Bernard Braun. In addition, painter Václav Vavřinec Reiner was involved in the masterpiece. The interior decoration of the Sala Terrena has survived in its original designs until today. The fresco on the vault depicting Venus and Adonis was painted by Václav Vavřinec Reiner. In 1990 - 1998, the Vrtba Garden underwent overall reconstruction, following previous static reinforcement. The renovated garden was opened for public on 3 June 1998. The garden is owned by the City of Prague and managed by Casus Direct Mail a.s. prohlídka mapa The exhibition of paintings In June, you can view the exhibition of paintings - Nina Danišová.

It was applied in a packaging line, and different print- and online material. It even was the first typeface we officially released. The font family was commissioned by Dutch design agency Stoere Binken Design, who designed a product brand called ‘Kryptonite’ for their client. The brand was vibrant, explosive and sharp. We made the typeface look like it could have been taken from a Superman movie. For the Kryptonite product brand we extended the existing font with 2 styles that could be stacked on top of each other to give it a cool 3d effect. The kryptonite from the Superman movies was a sharp, green and radiant crystal. This fit perfectly to CFF Kryptonite with its diagonal lines and the sharp stem edges. CFF Kryptonite a chromatic font family Chromatic font family CFF Kryptonite is a chromatic font family that consists of three versions. They can be stacked on top of each other to create a razor sharp 3D effect; • CFF Kryptonite A • CFF Kryptonite B • CFF Kryptonite C Although CFF Kryptonite C is the actual text font, each font can be used stand-alone. They don’t necessarily have to be used all together, because each font has enough power and character to ‘fly like a bird’. Your own custom typeface In a world that is exploding with brands and loud advertising noises, companies make every effort to stand out and be unique. A custom typeface is a very powerful visual tool to effectively position a brand. They are tailored to a companies needs, and can even save money long-term. It’s no longer exclusively available to large companies, but can be done at a smaller scale for medium sized companies as well. Characters Font Foundry offers creative and highly distinguishable custom typefaces that gives your brand a competitive edge.

Finding joy in contributing back to your community … well that takes gratitude to a completely higher level. One of the best things about a living, breathing community is creative thinking. Then to take a chance and use that creativity to give back to the people and the land. Now, that’s a dream come true. My involvement has taken me on a great journey. Gallery exhibitions, theatrical performance and active board engagement in the not for profit sector. Projects that existed in my dreams as a child. I feel very fortunate to have worked with talented, like minded individuals, in the youth and mental health space. With projects focused on recovery and understanding, backed by science and deep thought. One day, I hope to work in this space with our returned service men and women. For me, it would be a great honour and privilege. And one way to say ‘Thank you.’ Education, culture, creativity and mentoring are key heart projects. What are heart projects? They’re the ones that get you right there. In your gut. In your heart. And, in your mind. Not solely ruled by emotion. They’re the one’s you give a #*%$ about. Here are some projects I’ve had the pleasure of working on during the last few years. Pen to Power

Native American men owned and displayed their medicine bundles and warrior regalia in the tipi, earning the rights to wear certain prestige items, like feathers in was bonnets, based on their fighting procedure. NY Museums often addresses the matter in his writings. Men of so created naturalistic designs on tipi covers and liners, which in the reservation era were so drawn in ledger books. The decoration of objects by native American women artists is always dazzling to me. They were and are formidable mixed-media artists. Even a small Arapahoe pouch from the turn of the 20th century merits of abstract design worked in porcupine quills and beads, while at Ogala Sioux spear case from the 19th century mixes hide red trade cloth, and beads into a three-dimensional scheme of great vigor and complexity. Another extravaganza by on unknown Sioux artist is a man of 19th-century buckskin shirt, which is part pigment-dyed with beadwork bands of red hands on a white background, hair and feathers. “Tipi: heritage of the Great Plains” includes several examples of one type of object, like moccasins, to underscore the esthetic diversity of the Plains Indians.

One look at Kiowa artist Terri Greeves’ beaded high-heeled sneakers, Great Lakes girls (2008), which are decorated with spiny oyster shell cabochons, Swarovski crystals, and several types of beads, shows how far traditions are being pushed today.

It deals with the full recovery of the spiritual essence of man – his skills, his consciousness and the certainty of his immortality – and its relationship to the divine. And she shares the belief that the man is intended to bring about his redemption itself with many of the world’s oldest religions and that he fully understands his relationship to God or the creator only. The confession of faith of Scientology States that man basically is good and that his salvation of his fellow men and depends on by himself, that he achieved a fraternal relationship with the universe. In contrast to other efforts to help the people, attempts to solve his problems for him, Scientology, it enables its Problems to solve themselves. Only he is so capable, self-determined life not only his own life, but also to others – his friends, successfully helping his family and all those he encountered in everyday life -. Scientology enables humans, responses and solutions to find for each a higher awareness and spiritual freedom mean, and society progress in tackling their biggest problems: drugs, illiteracy, crime, violence and intolerance. Scientologists put the answers that they find in their religion, in many areas of society into practice. Scientology churches are therefore also starting a variety of different social programs, in which committed members apply their acquired knowledge, to help their fellow human beings. Although most people certainly believe that they should emphasize religion more in their lives the aspect, very few pursue the exercise of their religion as Scientologists, so engaged. During hours of training or of so-called auditing (Chaplaincy) they spend the week often several hours per day in their church, five days and over a period of several weeks. The founder of the Scientology – L. Ron Hubbard – mid March 1955 wrote the following quote: “until man not clearly understand what man is and has a science over humanity, he will continue to fight, punish and bad rule and it will be worse than it already is if no one accepts responsibility for. Scientologists accept this responsibility. We know that this can be a better, more rational world”.

Revis January 17, 2018 - Or Does it Explode THE LIST: Suzy Spence at Sears-Peyton January 11, 2018 - David Cohen Luxuriance is more than a painterly quality in the work of Suzy Spence. It is a symbolic form. Bravura paint handling conveys the very sense of sport that is her motif in images of the hunt. Riders throw themselves with panache into the chase without attendant loss of elegance or control. Their very sweat is decorous in an almost heraldic balance of vitality and poise. There is a corresponding dialectic in Spence’s attitude towards her subject matter. Her catalogue essayist, Amy Rahn, deftly describes the feminist and class critique at the heart of her gender-bending approach while equally acknowledging her personal investment in riding, her participation in the culture that she observes. “The way these paintings slip—between genre and critique of genre, between a love of the sartorial poses of foxhunting and a critique of their masculine power, and between portraiture and figurative painting—give us a glimpse of something dark and rich that hammers the ground between critical thought and sensuous painting.” The full throttle romance of “the drag” (the term for hunting with a substitute fox segues sexily into the fey innocence of Spence’s idealized sorority of latter-day Artemises) speaks to an artist who hunts with the hounds and runs with the hares. DAVID COHEN Rick Shaefer: The Refugee Today September 28, 2017 - Haggerty Museum of Art The Refugee Trilogy is a suite of large-scale charcoal drawings by Connecticut-based artist Rick Shaefer. The works employ the visual language of Baroque painting to express–in a language both familiar and historical–the plight of contemporary refugees, and the persistence of this epic human tragedy across time. The three triptychs, each measuring 96" x 165", are exhibited in a chronology suggested by news reports. Land Crossing, the first of the three, addresses the hazardous journeys faced by refugees fleeing war, famine, drought, or other causes. The second work, Water Crossing, portrays the perilous journeys across open water. The third work, Border Crossing, addresses the conflicts and hostilities faced at borders. In addition to the three triptychs, the exhibition includes seventeen preparatory drawings. In an interpretive space adjacent to the exhibition, visitors may watch short video interviews with Marquette University faculty members–from areas ranging from law to nursing to history–who work on the subject of refugees. Rick Shaefer: The Refugee Trilogy was organized by the Fairfield University Art Museum Maysey Craddock 'Riverine' September 14, 2017 - Wall Street International Maysey Craddock's 'Riverine’ at Sears Peyton Gallery, New York August 17, 2017 - Blouin ArtInfo Sears Peyton Gallery will be hosting Maysey Craddock’s “Riverine,” a solo exhibition by Maysey Craddock at the gallery’s venue at New York. This will be the artist’s fourth solo exhibition in New York. While the politicians debate over border issues and discuss the vices and virtues of securing the national borders, Craddock focuses on the fragility of the natural boundaries present around us. The works in this exhibition explore the natural boundaries such as the wild natural shores that divide the land and the sea, the rivers, deltas, the coastlines that are continuously shaped and reshaped by the sea, storm, and mankind. In each of her works, she traces trees, ragged alluvial trailings with delicate strokes on pieced paper surfaces that are stitched together with silk threads. Craddock portrays these natural borders as radically provisional and delicate spaces that are alive with continuous adaptation and regeneration. According to the artist, men perceive land as solid and immutable with heavy and dense edges and borders. However, what they fail to realize is that it changes drastically, especially the coastlines that are vulnerable to change. Craddock’s creative processes rhyme with the idea of making and unmaking her work. She takes photographs of the riverbanks and shorelines before fracturing the photos into abstracted motifs that she adopts into her paintings. Wall. Flower. June 29, 2017 - Make Magazine UK ‘I have always been fascinated by colour. I need it around me and on me’. Patricia Iglesias. Artist. New York City. ‘There were several things that motivated this last body of work, but two of them were the death of a close friend and the other was the birth of a baby. Flowers were something that both these events shared. In these important rituals of life like weddings, funerals and celebrations, flowers are ever present, announcing beginnings and endings, so they became a good starting point for my work. Flowers have been used in decoration from textiles to wallpapers and silverware and are often associated with the idea of making things more beautiful. In my opinion, flowers are also used as a way of concealing, hiding the ugliness and the pain and the rotten. Visualizations of Contemporary Paranoia: Shelley Reed’s A Curious Nature June 8, 2017 - Candice Bancheri Paranoia has a way of creeping up the spine and burrowing into the brain. Like a tick in the woods waiting for the right moment to latch onto its next host, it feeds—gorging itself on suspicions of falsehoods, naivety, and manipulated truths. Digesting Shelley Reed’s paintings felt a lot like discovering that tick on the back of your leg hours after a jaunt through the woods. With the utmost conviction, the tick quietly clung to its chosen host, fastened itself within the layers of fleshy epidermis, and fed until its swollen body pulsed with excess. Fortunately, Reed’s paintings do not carry Lyme disease or Rocky Mountain spotted fever. However, they infect the viewer with something much more revealing of its source and equally uncomfortable to contract. Contextualized by the looming crescendo of the information age, Reed’s exhibited work at the Fitchburg Art Museum begged the question: are curiosity and paranoia two sides of the same coin? The Photographer's Story: The Old Jersey Shore June 8, 2017 - The Lonely Planet Traveller I’ve spent the last two years documenting the Mid-century Modern motels of the Wildwoods, a group of shore towns on a five-mile island in southern New Jersey. Built in the ’50s and ’60s and virtually unchanged, they form the largest concentration of postwar resort architecture in the US. As a native of the Jersey Shore, I’ve always been interested in the coast’s history and buildings, and when I happened upon the Wildwoods one winter, I felt like I’d travelled back in time. Download Article (PDF) Artsy features Celia Gerard's show, "ASCENT / DESCENT" April 28, 2017 - Charles M. Schultz The shape of Celia Gerard’s studio is akin to an isosceles triangle whose apex has been leveled. It is a slightly irregular shape, but with a door on one end, a window at the other and a set of walls connecting base to foregone-tip, its geometric irregularity recedes beneath the structural logic of a building within which this little polygon fits neatly. When I imagine an image generated by changes in the layout of this building—small studios merging; larger ones being subdivided—I see fluctuating spatial relationships defined within a set of unchanging parameters. Older forms become ghosted beneath newly constructed arrangements that arise as they are needed. There is a natural order that underlies this apparent chaos; the question is how does one find that natural order? How does a person cultivate the ability to see the logical operations that give shade and shape to what may otherwise appear tangled and arbitrary? Cubist Art, Fresh Angles, The New York Sun Review April 28, 2017 - Carol Diamond Two gallery shows of contemporary art in Manhattan bring geometry and tactility together with vibrant results. New York–based artist Celia Gerard is exhibiting her signature large-scale mixed media drawings alongside relief sculptures in ceramic and bronze at Sears Peyton Gallery in Chelsea. At Fox Gallery on the Upper West Side, Greek artist Eozen Agopian adds thread and fabric to her abstract paintings. Large and small-scale works by Ms. Agopian fill two rooms of the salon-style gallery. Both artists use the pictorial language of geometric abstraction to take on the mantle of Cubism. In Ms. Gerard’s drawings, triangles appear and disappear in transparent veils of muted hues that press toward and away from the picture plane. Black lines zigzag playfully across the page, creating scalene triangles in “Ghost Bird,” 2016. Translucent layers of aqueous blues cover large areas of the composition, delineating white and pale-yellow birdlike forms. Ms. Gerard achieves formal tension here by combining soft, barely-there atmospheric color with resolute, geometric clarity. Her abstracted birds in flight recall Georges Braque’s iconic “oiseaux,” a recurring symbol in the Cubist master’s late work. Next Page \| 1 2 3 4 5 ... 9 \| View All

It was magical. Quite possibly the most beautiful place I have ever been. The islands form a dotted line between the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea with the most turquoise water you can imagine...at certain times of day...when the light is right. And then at other times the waters wore shades of cyan, gray, azure, aquamarine, blue, green, pink, lavender, and of course, blazing orange at sunset. And that was just on the surface! The underwater sea life was another highlight. We saw turtles and dolphins, we snorkeled with sharks, angelfish, butterfly fish, ballyhoo, and so many types of fish I've seen and never seen before. The reef was vibrant. Then there's the sky. Always willing to put on a show, the skies in Turks and Caicos generously bent light for us three days in a row. Rainbows over the ocean every day? Yes, please. I swear I could see the ultraviolet light in these rainbows. How far past violet can the human eye see? (This place was so otherworldly, I think if we had stayed another day we would have seen a unicorn.) But for me, the common thread for all the island's magic was the light. The changing light of each day changed my perspective, changed my view, altered what I saw. It is easier to notice this while on vacation, because I slow down, but this is true anytime, anywhere. Light has a huge impact on the way we experience space. The light in Turks and Caicos is different than the light in Alaska or St. Louis, Charlotte, Wichita, or San Antonio. Light is magical, folks. Take time to engage with and enjoy the light in your space right now. It's all about the light. <![CDATA[B.E.C.O.M.E.]]>Thu, 20 Jan 2022 16:23:22 GMThttps://www.envisionlightingdesign.com/blog/becomePriorities. What will your project B.E.C.O.M.E.? Envision Lighting Design helps clients address all the issues in the BECOME acronym (below) but it is the way these items are prioritized that will give each project its own unique fingerprint. Which is most important to you and your project? BudgetBudget necessarily plays an important role in every project. Is budget your number one priority, or do other concerns take precedence? Knowing the budget up front saves design time and design costs. The ELD team is skilled at designing to a budget - especially when we know what it is! Environment (energy, efficiency, nature, resources) – Lighting consumes energy and impacts the environment. We want to be good stewards of the limited resources available to us. We don’t waste light. This includes minimizing “throw-away” light into the sky, which is not only wasteful, but can have a negative impact on birds and other wildlife. Community (safety, cultural value) – Lighting can help create a sense of place and a sense of safety. Light is an equity issueExterior lighting plays an especially important role. Lighting can also enhance, entice, surprise, and delight. Orientation (wayfinding) – Because lighting can entice, it can also help lead people to where they need to be. Lighting can be used to help people find their way: lighting and technology can be combined to identify open parking, lighting can differentiate one place from another, and it can guide people along a path. Maintenance Even LEDs require maintenance. They may last longer than legacy light sources, but maintenance is inevitable. Drivers tend to fail before the actual diodes. How important are maintenance considerations on your project? Essence (identity, brand) – Illuminated architecture defines a neighborhood and creates identity. Producing a harmonious lighting concept can impact tourism and brand recognition. This is where lighting contributes to the personality of a space. Which aspect of B.E.C.O.M.E. is most important to you? Your priorities will impact what your project becomes.]]> <![CDATA[Enlighten, Enhance, Enjoy - Version 2022]]>Tue, 04 Jan 2022 19:19:33 GMThttps://www.envisionlightingdesign.com/blog/enlighten-enhance-enjoy-version-2022 We are so excited about what's new in 2022, and the best part is that we will be tackling this year with YOU, our clients, partners, and friends! Looking back... In retrospect, when we slow down to think, the bright, flashing things that are typically vying for our attention in the day-to-day fade a bit, allowing our real priorities to shine. Some of last year's proudest moments were when the ELD team volunteered with some great St. Louis initiatives, including Pocketparks whose mission is to activate and beautify city streets by encouraging healthy habits, and The Little Bit Foundation which is breaking down barriers to learning. Significantly, in their first-ever Women in Lighting Awards, the international organization WIL recognized ELD Principal, Lisa J. Reed for her role as a supporter of women in our industry. Speaking of awards, the Envision Lighting Design team received FIVE IES Illumination Awards, and four of them were National Awards of Merit! We completed some stellar new projects in 2021, too. How cool was it to be involved with the Muny upgrades? Super cool, and their new behind-the-scenes lighting helps them function so much better. The newly upgraded Central West End Metrolink station was a 2021 project highlight as well. Its color-changing glass canopy adds a pop of color to the middle of the Washington University School of Medicine campus. The McKelvey Hall ribbon cutting in October was a treat, and it was fun to reconnect with most of the design team that day. Our trip to Hendersonville in November included a perfect rainbow, confirming that the project really was a pot of gold! Looking forward... It's that time of year when everyone is talking self-improvement. One of the ELD team's collective goals is to increase our vocabulary this year, so we are launching the Wednesday Word of the Week! Follow us on social media to learn alongside the ELD team. We are also always looking for ways to give back to our community. This year, you'll find us putting our energy into WILD STL, CREW STL, and the USGBC Mo Gateway Chapter, where Lisa will begin serving as the Membership and Marketing Committee Chairperson. Whatever your goals are, we want to be a resource for you, so be on the lookout for more blogs, articles, and educational material from the ELD team this year. Where do you want to connect ? What do you want to learn? We are here for you in 2022 - still the biggest lighting geeks you'll ever meet! <![CDATA[Redfin: Experts Reveal How to Tackle a Guest Bathroom Remodel Like a Pro]]>Mon, 08 Feb 2021 14:14:04 GMThttps://www.envisionlightingdesign.com/blog/redfin-experts-reveal-how-to-tackle-a-guest-bathroom-remodel-like-a-proEnvision Lighting Design was recently featured in a Redfin article. While we can't summarize everything about bathroom lighting in 2-3 sentences, we captured a few of the most important ideas. "In addition to instantly changing the space’s design aesthetic, lighting at the mirror helps get rid of harsh shadows from overhead lighting, creating a more flattering light on your face. Opt for a warm light (2700K, 90+CRI) to accentuate the effect." – Envision Lighting Design To expand on the above thoughts, you must put the light between your face and your mirror. There are many ways to do this, with a wall-mounted fixture over the top of the mirror being the most common. Wall sconces flanking the sides of a mirror will also work nicely, or do both top and sides! (Think "Hollywood" lights.) A modern take on this often seen in hotels is a mirror with integral lights for a clean, flush solution. For more whimsy, consider a pair of pendants flanking the mirror. Keep them close to the wall so they provide light in the same way a sconce would. With all of these options, we are looking for a soft, warm glow, not a harsh directional light. While lighting at the mirror is one of the most important aspects of bathroom lighting, we can't neglect the rest of the room. Like mirror lighting, task lighting is also helpful in showers. A recessed, wet-location downlight is the most common solution here, but if you've spent a lot of money for special tile or plumbing fixtures, why not highlight them? Use a shower-rated recessed adjustable accent light to highlight your shower fixtures like the art that they are! At the commode, we are always careful not to place a light directly overhead. Who wants to feel like they are under a spotlight while doing their business?? That said, adequate ambient light is necessary for cleaning (and reading or whatever else you might be doing in here) but that can be achieved with a decorative luminaire or downlight in the center of the room. "In addition to instantly changing the space’s design aesthetic, lighting at the mirror helps get rid of harsh shadows from overhead lighting, creating a more flattering light on your face. Opt for a warm light (2700K, 90+CRI) to accentuate the effect." – Envision Lighting Design Lastly, don't forget to provide a way to make a middle-of-the-night bathroom run without turning on all the lights. Keeping light levels low at night can help people fall back to sleep. There are several ways to achieve this. One of our favorites is to provide a little light in the toe-kick of bathroom cabinets, keeping light levels low and light fixtures physically low to the ground. Keeping our human circadian system in mind, warm amber or even red light is the best color for night lights. Avoid blue or bright white night lights! If you don't want to install a separate night light, at the very least, put bathroom lights on dimmers so light levels can be kept low at night and raised to appropriate levels during the daytime. For more information on how to illuminate bathrooms or any other spaces, contact us! We are here to help you get the light right. <![CDATA[Award-winning Designer Kaitlin Page Joins Envision Lighting Design, LLC]]>Tue, 12 Jan 2021 16:48:33 GMThttps://www.envisionlightingdesign.com/blog/award-winning-designer-kaitlin-page-joins-envision-lighting-design-llcPage Starts a New Chapter...

This will (hopefully) be the start of a longer conversation filled with action items - what can we actually do to improve our industry by making it inclusive and welcoming to a diverse population? When Edward Bartholomew and Nelson Jenkins asked me to join this panel, the first words out of my mouth were, "I might say the wrong thing. Don't get me wrong - I'm passionate about this topic. It's close to my heart, but I'm still learning how to be Anti-Racist." Edward graciously answered that we are all still learning and Nelson welcomed me to the panel. I have already learned during the short time we have been preparing for this webinar. Why would I want to be on this panel? I believe that justice and equity are human rights. I also believe that designers can apply our creativity to solving issues of social injustice. As a kid, I often felt left out. We've all been there, right? I remember that feeling, and I hated it. Because of that, I have always tried to be inclusive. As a human, I care about how others are treated. I care about how they feel. I care about people. I care. I care about my seven-year-old niece who is the princess of our family. She was born in Ethiopia and adopted at eight months old. She is spunky and smart. I want everyone to see that about her and love her as much as I do. I want her to have access to every opportunity that my nephew and my sons will have. And I absolutely don't want anyone to hurt her or judge her based on her gender or the color of her skin. Let me ask the white people reading this...when was the last time you were in the minority? When have you gone to a meeting or a store or just driven down the street and noticed that you were the only white person around? Can you honestly say you were comfortable in that situation? Okay, now reverse that and you might begin to imagine how Black lighting designers feel. At a lighting conference about 15 years ago, I happened to notice that nearly everyone in the room was old, white, and male. A few years later, an Emerging Professional approached me and said, "This is awkward, but I feel like I can talk to you...are there any Black people in this industry?" My truthful answer had to be that there aren't many, but then I proceeded to introduce her to as many people as I could to make her feel welcome. This conversation is long overdue. Since the murder of George Floyd and the subsequent protests, many in the lighting industry have condemned social injustice and racism. Many in the lighting community have even issued diversity and inclusion statements. Action is also overdue. I hope everyone who has been speaking out will join this Webinar. Help us discuss ways to move into action and make positive change in our industry! <![CDATA[Spice Up Your Outdoor Restaurant Space With Lighting]]>Wed, 10 Jun 2020 00:26:52 GMThttps://www.envisionlightingdesign.com/blog/spice-up-your-outdoor-restaurant-space-with-lightingUpdate: A version of this story was published in St. Louis CNR! Read that story here, and our original blog post below. Cities everywhere are closing roadways to traffic and allowing restaurants to add outdoor dining tables because of coronavirus. Other restaurants are taking over parts of their parking lots to add a few tables. This outdoor dining option will be a lifesaver for many restaurants, allowing them to serve more guests while social distancing. Small overlooked nooks and crannies can create a perfect socially distanced table and with the right lighting, it can be stunning. Outdoor dining creates daytime and nighttime lighting challenges. Umbrellas or a trellis may be needed to mitigate hot sunshine, while those “ceilings” become perfect opportunities for lighting at night. Uplighting an umbrella turns the whole thing into a glowing light source. LED lights are small sources which don’t take much power. Some can even be solar powered. The Envision Lighting Design team has studied the options, and we would like to offer a few guidelines for spicing up your ad hoc alfresco dining spaces with a little lighting magic. Safety First Be sure to highlight steps, ramps, and curbs. This can be done with post-top lights, wall sconces, or ropelight tucked underneath the steps. Light can also mark pathways and help with wayfinding. To screen diners from roadways, parking lots, or even other tables, add plants and put lights in them for increased visibility. If you don’t plan to bring your lighting system inside during inclement weather, make sure you are using lights that are rated for outdoor use. Warm Color Creates Fireside Ambiance LED light comes in all different colors. Be sure to pick a warm color light (not “daylight”) to help people – and their food – look the most appealing. Be careful with saturated color! Pops of red or blue color can be fun, but use it sparingly to avoid discoloring food or creating a chaotic atmosphere. Another thing that creates a warm fireside ambiance is…fire. Firepits can be used to help socially distance patrons while also providing light. Firepits or heat lamps can provide warmth and ambient light to extend the outdoor dining season in cool climates. Candles on tables provide light, too. You can also use candles or other lighting to track which tables are ready for new guests. Umbrellas can provide daytime shade from hot sun, while tiki torches provide light at night; either replace umbrellas with tiki torches nightly, or if you have enough room, create a checkerboard of umbrella tables for daytime and tiki tables for night. Create a Focal Point Light the vertical surfaces between tables, whether they are curtains, walls, or plants. Whatever you use as a partition between people, illuminate it. Accent your accent walls! Try hiding the light source behind a bench or plant to create a softer glow. Glare is the enemy of a pleasant ambiance. Firepits, fireplaces, and landscape planters are natural focal points. You can also uplight trees or hang lights from their branches to downlight the spaces below them. Why not draw attention to these bits of nature if you are lucky enough to have them in your urban landscape? String Light Love We all love string lights, and they are easy to install. But try using them differently. Here are some suggestions: • When stringing lights across your space, what are you using for posts? Broomsticks in a bucket can work, but so can other objects. Try one of the following alternatives. • Use beefy 4x4 posts set in concrete bases; fill buckets with concrete and remove the bucket after concrete has set. • If you use sand-filled buckets, skirt them with fabric to hide the ugly bucket (and the dirty sand.) • Old wooden ladders or other interesting objects can be weighted with plants and used to anchor string lights. • String lights from a building to a perimeter wall – no posts necessary. • Instead of hanging the string lights as a swag, connect them to the architecture and hang them in straight lines. • Are there trees in your outdoor space? Wrap them with string lights. Locate the lights above eye level for best results. It doesn’t take much. Even just one string of lights can make a table more inviting. Let Your Personality Shine! Lights – even string lights – come in different shapes and sizes. There are standard globes, but there are also some that look like jelly jars or paper lanterns. Pick a shape that matches the personality of your eatery. Another fun idea is to bring floor lamps outdoors. Some are even rated for outdoor use. Speaking of lamps, anything can be a lampshade! Hang buckets, baskets, or wire birdcages over a simple shop light for a dressed-up look. Cluster a group of cord-hung lamps together to create your own chandelier. Lighting can be expensive and complicated, but it doesn’t have to be, and using your creativity can keep costs low. Whatever you decide to do, remember that the magic of light can enhance the outdoor dining experience just like it does indoors. <![CDATA[The Wait of the World]]>Wed, 29 Apr 2020 04:09:21 GMThttps://www.envisionlightingdesign.com/blog/the-wait-of-the-worldI had a little "meetup" with friends last night. You know the kind: not actually in person, but on Zoom like a work meeting, except after work and with non-work friends. My (sweet and insightful) friend told me it looked like I was carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders. I'm sure it did... I could stare right back at my own image... ...in fact, with Zoom I could stare right back at my own image and see exactly what she was talking about in real time. It wasn't pretty, folks. For one thing, I need to work on my video-call lighting set-up. And maybe I also need to place an online order for some new makeup. But I digress. It's probably true that I have been worrying about things more than I need to. But you know what else is true? I have been waiting for SO MANY THINGS. We have all been waiting... ...for our states or cities to reopen ...for test results ...to hear who won the proposal ...for furloughs to end ...for PPP loans or EIDL grants or stimulus checks ...for school to end ...for summer to start ...for our grocery deliveries ...for newly planted gardens to grow ...to be let in to that next web call Whatever it is that you are waiting for, take a deep breath and let the weight slip off. We're all in this together. You don't have to carry it all yourself!

However, their branding was limiting and mostly targeted the market in which they had already developed a strong presence. It was time to move outside the box. The Solution The p3tography brand was crafted to both provide a professional voice for the company as well as maintain a personal element for both owners. Supplemental elements provided p3tography with a clean and consistent look that clients from all markets could appreciate. Company Rebrand Week Turnaround Amazing Result A Brand with Meaning Rebuilt From the Inside Out The logo is a complete re-brand from the original identity that once existed. The font chosen is clean and approachable from any perspective. The symbol is a take on the digital crop icon, giving representation to the fact that p3tography also offers high end commercial editing and photo processing as well. With the simple addition of the middle circle, the logo resembles a vintage box camera to convey the owners’ love for all things authentically antique- an element that presented itself often in p3tography’s photo-shoots and eventually became a staple look they arguably created in the market they had established. A Personal Touch The a in photography is presented as a triangle, giving the logo a very personal touch. The triangle reflects a tattoo one owner received in honor of her sister who originally created the p3 moniker during their childhood years in reference to herself and her two siblings- the creators and owners of p3tography.

In a move this week to perhaps help smooth that rocky road, Frank Gehry has introduced a few changes to his Eisenhower Memorial, his first monument in the city. Having landed the commission two years ago, at which time we were told that his plans might not just change the way we think about memorials, but of Gehry’s talents as well, the architect has undergone a handful of skirmishes with the National Capital Planning Commission, having to revise his original plans several times in order to meet their exacting standards. Yesterday, Gehry met with the NCPC to introduce the idea of forging a sort of engraved tapestry onto the large pillars that make up the memorial. No word on what exactly the images will be yet, but as the Washington Post speculates, they are likely to include pieces from the former President’s life, from growing up in Kansas to commanding military forces in World War II. This being government, we’re certain the NCPC will need some time to think this new plan through (the next design review meeting is scheduled for “late 2011 or early 2012″). What’s more, on top of that, we’re assuming that the commission and the architect are still working through the revisions proposed earlier this year, which focused on trying to make the memorial block less of the view of the nearby Capitol. Update: Looks like things didn’t go as well as Mr. Gehry might have hoped.

The palace fulfilled its purpose: fifteen children were born of their union, ten of whom survived. After Wolf Dietrich's death, the palace was renamed "Mirabell" by his successor, Markus Sitticus von Hohenems. The Palace: a precious jewel Prince-Archbishop Franz Anton von Harrach had Mirabell Palace redesigned by the famous baroque architect, Lukas von Hildebrandt, from 1721 to 1727, integrating the individual buildings into a self-contained complex. The palace was damaged by the great fire that swept through the city on April 30, 1818. A number of frescoes including those by Johann Michael Rottmayr and Gaetano Fanti fell victim to the flames. The grand marble staircase that led into the palace and the marble hall survived unscathed. Mirabell Palace owes its present unassuming appearance to Peter de Nobile, the court's architectural consultant and director of the Vienna School of Architecture. Details such as the edging of the windows, the capitals and stuccowork bear witness to the palace's former splendor. The masterly staircase by Lukas von Hildebrandt is one of the most precious works of art at Mirabell Palace. Charming putti (cherubs) decorate the marble balustrade; the sculptures in the niches are the work of the famous Georg Raphael Donner and among the finest products of the European baroque. The Mirabell Gardens The famous Mirabell Gardens were redesigned around 1690 under Prince-Archbishop Johann Ernst Graf von Thun to plans by Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach and completely remodeled around 1730 by Franz Anton Danreiter. The Pegasus Fountain, a work by Kaspar Gras from Innsbruck, was installed in 1913. The four groups of statues around the fountain were sculpted by Ottavio Mosto (1690) and symbolize the 4 elements: fire, air, earth and water. The Mirabell Gardens were opened to the public by Emperor Franz Joseph in 1854. Today they are a horticultural masterpiece and popular backdrop for photographers.

Asks Deborah Grossberg, are the indoor shopping mazes rising up across town really a different breed? Malls are a menace to New York: they drain the life out of vibrant neighborhoods by siphoning customers away from street-level retail and repelling Manhattan residents, leaving behind chintzy eyesores crowded with vacationing suburbanites. Or at least that’s the conventional wisdom. But in recent years, as big-box stores and glitzy mall developments planned and funded in the bull-market 1990s appear in high-traffic pedestrian areas from Union Square to Harlem, fears among urban planners and theorists have shifted focus. New York City developers and architects have improved on the old models for urban malls, and the rapid gentrification spurred on by Mayor Giuliani’s city clean-up effort combined with the development-friendly policies of the Bloomberg administration have encouraged a mall-city merger on a broader scale. While the new urban malls are more profitable and better connected to the street, small-scale street-level retail has started to look increasingly homogenized, chained-out, and mall-like. uwe ditz photography, courtesy the related companies When Manhattan’s first enclosed shopping malls opened in the 1980s, urban planners and theorists worried that the new megaplexes might herald an era of suburbanization for New York. Everyone was enraged when Trump built his mall 20 years ago and now it seems relatively benign,, said architect and critic Michael Sorkin. I’m a bit agnostic about these new developments.. Other critics have been less tentative. In December, one of the most popular new developmentssThe Shops at Columbus Circleewon the Municipal Art Society’s (MAS) 2003 MASterwork Award in Urban Design for the best new privately owned public space. Rick Bell, executive director of AIA-NY and one of the award jurors, said, Since 9/11, many of the city’s great public atriums have been closed off to pedestrians due to security concerns. The entrance hall at the Shops is an indoor-outdoor space with spectacular Central Park views that’s open to all New Yorkers.. Malls have always been the domain of the middle class, and though the new Manhattan developments vary from bargain-basement to the height of luxury, they still represent a populist influence on the city’s retail. Politicians and planners usually use malls as lures for the white middle class, but for Manhattan it’s been reversed,, said Jeffrey Hardwick, author of Mall Maker: Victor Gruen, Architect of an American Dream (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2004). The middle class has come back to Manhattan and malls have followed.. Some say that the relative silence of mall-haters is the result of a wising-up on the part of the city’s retail developers. Developers and retailers have gotten smarter about building in Manhattan,, said Peter Slatin, creator of the real estate news website The Slatin Report. They’re working together to make more integrated vertical malls.. In attempting to redefine the urban mall, today’s developers begin by banishing the term itself. Early shopping centers like the Manhattan Mall, which opened in 1989 at the corner of Sixth Avenue and 33rd Street, stuck to straightforward names and standard mall design. Introverted shops and cheap ddcor marked them for what they were. Those malls never resonated with New Yorkers,, said Bell. New mall developers avoid that negative image, instead conjuring jargon like vertical retail environment,, which is The Related Companies and Apollo Real Estate Advisors’ preferred tag for their Columbus Circle shopping development. courtesy manhattan mall Historically, making vertical retail work has been impossible in a city where land values are too high to give the classic two-story mall model financial feasibility. In order to draw shoppers up to higher levels, architects and developers have improved connections to the neighborhood outside, executing transparent, extroverted designs. Harlem USA, the shopping development at the corner of 125th Street and Frederick Douglass Boulevard that opened in 2001, emphatically rejected the typical introverted suburban mall style invented by Viennese architect Victor Gruen in his 1956 prototype for the modern mall, The Southdale Center in Edina, Minnesota. At Southdale, Gruen closed off stores from the street, taking total control of the retail environment. When SOM was commissioned by Grid Properties to design Harlem USA, the firm focused on turning the Gruen model inside out. We created an anti-mall,, said Mustafa Abadan, the project’s manager at SOM. The roots of New York retail are at the street level, and the idea was to engage that energy, to draw it in by orienting out.. SOM did away with internal circulation; The upper floors of individual stores are only reachable through escalators within the stores, and the lobbies of the third floor movie theater, accessible via an independent street-level entrance, face outwards. Even though the stores are bigger, they maintain the essential New York street typology,, said Abadan. bob zucker courtesy som Harlem USA has drawn much more negative press than the Shops due to its location in an historic neighborhood. Area shop owners make the standard arguments that chains have drawn business away from mom-and-pops, and that the character of the neighborhood is suffering. Others see the development as an important step in Harlem’s economic renaissance. Harlem USA brought customers to the neighborhood who would otherwise have shopped on 34th Street or Downtown,, said Abadan. The Vornado Realty Trust shopping development at the southwest corner of Union Square also used transparency to ensnare shoppers. In Manhattan, people see shopping as sport,, said JJ Falk, principal of JJ Falk Design, the firm that designed the Filene’s Basement, DSW Shoe Warehouse, and interior circulation for Vornado’s Union Square development. It’s like visiting a museummif people like what they see, they’ll stay in the space longer.. A glass towerr of circulation is meant to draw street traffic up from the Union Square transport hub, and Falk located the escalators within the three-story Filene’s Basement flush with floor-to-ceiling glass walls facing Union Square. It’s like you’re in the park,, said Falk. courtesy jj falk design DSW and Filene’s opened at the Union Square location in October and a Whole Foods Market is slated to open later this year. Although preliminary sales data for the stores were unavailable, Falk said that the entire construction cost for the project would be recouped in six months should current sales trends continue. Neighborhood tie-in was important to developers of The Shops at Columbus Circle as well. It was first a matter of creating great spaces for pedestrian passage to tie the city together,, said Howard Elkus, a principal at Elkus/Manfredi, the Boston-based firm specializing in retail architecture that designed the Shops. Their design weaves the retail space of the Shops into the city grid with two axes of circulation, one curving around Columbus Circle’s arc, and the other sweeping up 59th Street into a five-story, 150-foot-high great room.. The minimal boundary between mall and street was emphasized through James Carpenter Design Associates’ design for the entryway’s faaade, an 85-foot-wide, 150-foot-tall cable net glass wall that boasts the title of largest in the world. Besides an emphasis on transparency, Related and Apollo banked on the position of the 365,000-square-foot Shops at the heart of the 2.8-million-square-foot mixed-use Time Warner Center (designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill) to offset the enormous cost of building in New York (The Time Warner Center cost a total of $1.7 billion) and to justify the astronomical annual rents for prime retail space ($300 to $400 per square foot). The classic anchor store model was supplemented with luxury residences, high-end office space, five top-tier restaurants, and a concert venue for Jazz at Lincoln Center (designed by Rafael Viioly Architects). The Shops therefore have a better chance to become a destination for shoppers from New York as well as farther afield. Moreover, the development’s high-end mix of shops is as good a fit for Upper West Side shoppers on the way home from work as it is for tourists making a beeline from Times Square to Central Park. One big attraction has been the 60,000-square-foot Whole Foods Market in the complex’s basement. Although some complain about the grocery store’s high prices, most have seen it as a godsend. Cities don’t need malls to function as community centers as they do in the suburbs, but when they’re combined with the things that people loveeand in New York that begins with fooddthey have greater potential for success,, said Bell.. The approach to luring customers with extensive mixed-use developments comes closer to realizing the utopian dreams of early mall designers like Gruen. At Southdale, Gruen planned apartments, a park, a medical center, even schools to accompany the mall. It looked like a Corbusier plan with towers and green space,, said Hardwick. Gruen’s fantasy suburban city was scrapped for lack of budget, a fact to which he often attributed the ultimate decay of his vision. The question now is whether the inclusion of residential, cultural, and palette- pleasing elements will function as planned. It’s unclear whether it will actually pay off, or whether it’s just a new PR spin,, said Hardwick. Now nearing its first anniversary, the Shops report promising numbers, with higher sales than expected and 99 percent of its 347,000 square-feet of leasable space occupied. The South Street Seaport mall is one decades old development that has consistently struggled to turn a profit. courtesy south street seaport As malls adapt to embrace city life, planners seem more concerned about what urban historian and professor at Harvard’s GSD Margaret Crawford termed spontaneous malling,, the process by which an urban space starts to take on the qualities of a mall without the aid of developers. At this point, Broadway in SoHo is a total mall,, said Crawford, who wrote the essay The World in a Shopping Malll published in Sorkin’s Variations on a Theme Park (Noonday Press, 1992). Broadway, which used to sport hip boutiques and galleries, is now lined with chain outlets like Old Navy, Crate & Barrel, and Sephoraathe same stores found in suburban malls. Spontaneous malling is happening more and more, and cities consider it desirable since it attracts suburban shoppers, in this case from New Jersey.. Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) are often the culprits in emerging street-as-mall phenomenon in New York. By organizing signage, street furniture, wayfinding, and even the uniforms for garbage collectors, BIDs often induce mall-like situations. Said Slatin, It’s a constant tug-of-war over whether to homogenize a neighborhood or leave the jumble. There’s value in the order, especially in terms of security and comfort for tourists, but at the same time the city has a way of making its own order.. Manhattan has managed to remake malls in its image, while the traits that make up malls have quietly bled into the city’s fabric. There have always been cries that the mall is going to kill things or that it’s dying,, said Hardwick. The amazing thing is how flexible the form actually is.. Even in a city with such a vibrant retail culture, the mall has found ways to penetrate. The end result in Manhattan has been two surprisingly similar variations: the mall as city and the city as mall. Deborah grossberg is an associate editor at an. Related Stories

Wilson works with the Carnegie, and Duffey is the director of Keep Newnan Beautiful. In celebration of Georgia Cities Week, the city of Newnan presented a 'People, Place, Purpose' open house at the Newnan Carnegie Library downtown on Wednesday to showcase services available for city residents. 'We are very proud of our city and the services and what we provide that make it attractive to residents and visitors,' said Gina Snider, city public information officer. 'Too often, people are unaware of how cities enhance their quality of life, and we like them to participate in these events and learn more about local government.' The theme for this year's Georgia Cities week was 'People, Place, Purpose.' Members of the Newnan Fire Department were on hand at Wednesday's event to answer any questions from citizens as well to give out free smoke detectors. Other city departments and groups taking part included: Newnan Police Department, Newnan Convention Center Authority, Keep Newnan Beautiful, the planning and zoning department, Newnan Youth Council, and Newnan Cultural Arts Commission. The city also provided lunch to those who attended. Georgia Cities Week was observed in Newnan beginning on Monday and ending today. The open house was just one of the many events they held throughout the week. A city-inspired art contest was held in the three local high schools – Newnan, Northgate and East Coweta. Those who participated entered works of art that best depicted this year's theme of 'People, Place, Purpose.' This year's winners were all from Newnan High School: First place, Leah Prisk; Second place, Jacob McIntyre; Third place, Allie Buchanan; Honorable Mention, Nicholas Petty and Rebecca Barron 'We are very proud of Newnan and the talent we have in our youth,' said Snider. 'The city's art contest is a great way for the youth of Newnan to display their talent and show their interpretation of our city through art.' Those art pieces will be displayed at the Newnan city manager's office throughout the remainder of April. Snider notes that downtown Newnan is full of festivities every first weekend of the month, April through December. On the first Friday of every month, downtown guests enjoy shopping after normal business hours, community entertainment and dining specials at downtown restaurants. Market Days are the first Saturday of every month, offering the best homegrown, homemade or handmade products this side of Atlanta with more than 50 vendors. Pickin' On the Square takes place first and third Saturdays. The bi-monthly acoustic 'jam session' downtown begins at 11 a.m., when musicians show up at random and begin playing acoustic music around the four corners of the courthouse. 'I Beginning in May, Main Street Newnan will begin promoting 'Main Street on the Menu,' an opportunity for local restaurants to highlight specialty dishes during Main Street events. Participating restaurants will advertise a special meal during the event, and Main Street will offer incentives for customers who try the special, said Snider. During Historic Preservation Month in May, Main Street Newnan will celebrate the heritage and historical significance of the downtown business district. Each week one portion of the Court Square will be highlighted with a historic interpretation. Local Newnan historian Elizabeth Beers will also offer tours each Sunday in May that will highlight each block. Also beginning in May, Main Street Newnan will host a monthly historic preservation planning sessions for property owners of commercial structures in the downtown district. These sessions will be geared toward providing property owners with the general knowledge they may need to consider a rehabilitation or renovation project. Property owners may also receive help with determining if their structure is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and if their structures are eligible for Historic Preservation Tax Credits. The city-inspired art contest winners are Jacob McIntyre, Leah Prisk, Nicholas Petty, Rebecca Barron and Allie Buchanan. They are pictured with Newnan Mayor Keith Brady.

Final Project Statement: The distance to be bridged, thrust, goal, star, ambition, the desire that attracts you into a path to go. Kilometers, meters, centimeters have no difference. Every millimeter seems infinite. The wait. Months, days, hours, minutes have no difference. Every second seems like an eternity. Each smallness has a different weight when you wait, when you want to. Every detail turns. Everything flows, everything changes, but small evasions, fragments of unreality, break and interrupt the elusive routine bringing you back to the memories, dreams, where time and space do not exist anymore. Warmth, intimacy, safety, peace, new discovery. Sidus is a distance collaboration with my partner. We want to talk about distance, expectation, desire as need and something that you don’t have, a lack, such as impulses and strides for reaching the goal. We recreate an atmospheare intimate, dreamlike, unreal and uterale, with screenings on mirror films that create reflections and distort the images. The video shown is the journey Milan-Florence, the distance that separates us, the audio is the buzz of the train itself. These days, the work is also exhibited in Milan, in fact, the video would be two (round trip Milan Florence) but to talk once again of distance and separation we decided to break them down for the period of exposure to Siena. Through the journey, the path and the wait is coming to bridge the gaps in order to find an intimate sensation. Through the memories and the dreams that break, refract, and distort the daily routine, the distances are canceled. 67P / Churyumov-Gerasimenko With images of the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko I found new shapes to create my own comet.The comets, so far away, capture our imagination, and for the first time in history, humans have arrived on a comet. This scientific achievement speaks of the desire to know, seek, and find new answers, and then ask new questions.I decided to develop a project in response using the medium of cyanotype.When the photosensitive surface is exposed to light, the image slowly appears in shades of cyan, blue: the color of the distance, of imagination, of dreams. Snapshots from the Nov 14 Open Studio event at the Siena Art Institute: Finalized Structures for the collaborative installation “Today is Tomorrow: The Future of Colle” in the Archeological Museum of Colle di Val d’Elsa: This slideshow requires JavaScript. Colle di Val d’Elsa is a very special village with a lot of history and with a very high percentile of immigrants in the city center (almost 14%, if we consider the national average of 9% we realize that the percentage is quite significant). Last year a mosque was opened in Colle di Val d’Elsa, despite various problems that had delayed the project, and it has has become a cultural center for the Muslim community of Colle. Inspired by the multi-ethnic character of the town and having noticed the distance between different cultures there, I decided to focus on this dynamic, creating a proposal for a spiritual place for the future of Colle di Val d’Elsa that is designed to foster dialogue and points of connection between the town’s different religions. “SuperUtopian Holy Place” is a spiritual center for all religions and for all currents of thought. A spiritual place where people can take the time to reflect, learn, discuss, and meditate. In its architecture “SuperUtopian Holy Place” presents different archaic elements and shapes that always inspired more cultures from all over the world to find the spirituality in a sacred place; like the circle, the octagon, life, charity, water, light and the orientation in the space connected with the cosmos. “SuperUtopian Holy Place” is also characterized by the common principles of various religions that I tried to emphasize like life and charity. In the center there is the energy: a windmill blade that rises towards the sky provide energy building. Into the channel that will pass close the building a system inspired by the original mills in Colle di Val d’Elsa give energy to the building. The “SuperUtopian Holy Place” is on four different levels: The ground floor is the space for the contemplation of the soul, for the spirit, for the prayer and for thought; The first floor there is the library of different religions and beliefs where workshop and conferences can also be held; The second floor is the canteen with food distribution for the poor, where everyone, even those who have no money, can eat a hot meal. On the roof there would be a communal vegetable garden, celebrating health, life, and rebirth. The vegetables from this garden are used for the food distribution in the canteen on the second floor. The goal of this project is to bring a message of peace and togetherness reflecting on the common points of different religions and cultures. I hope for a future where religions and schools of thought can be sources of inspiration and mutual comparison for constant enrichment of the collective, not pretexts for wars with other purposes and mass manipulation … but I insist on the word “SuperUtopian” because unfortunately this idyllic vision of the future is still very far away. Il mio progetto è il “Luogo Santo SuperUtopico” per tutte le religioni e per tutte le correnti di pensiero. Un luogo spirituale dove ognuno può prendere il suo tempo e parlare al suo Dio. Nella sua architettura “Luogo Santo SuperUtopico” presenta diversi elementi arcaici e forme che da sempre hanno ispirato più culture provenienti da tutto il mondo per trovare la spiritualità nel loro luogo santo; ad esempio la verticalità come tentativo di arrivare al cielo, il cerchio, l’ottagono, l’acqua, la luce e l’orientamento nello spazio collegato con il cosmo. “Luogo Santo SuperUtopico” è caratterizzato anche da principi comuni di diverse religioni che ho cercato di esaltare come la vita e la carità. Al centro c’è l’energia: una pala eolica che sale verso il cielo per fornire energia pulita all’edificio. Anche un sistema di mulini inspirato agli originali mulini a Colle Val d’Elsa provvede a dare energia all’edificio e agli spazi circostanti. “Luogo Santo Superutopico” si sviluppa su quattro livelli: Al piano terra vi è lo spazio per la contemplazione dell’anima, per lo spirito, per la preghiera e per il pensiero. Al primo piano si trova la biblioteca delle diverse religioni e credenze, dove possono aver luogo anche workshop e conferenze; Al secondo piano vi è la mensa con il diritto al cibo, dove chiunque, anche chi non ha soldi, può mangiare un pasto caldo e sano. Sul tetto vi è un orto comune per dare valore alla vita e alla rinascita. Le verdure dell’orto sono destinate alla mensa. L’obiettivo di questo progetto è quello di portare un messaggio di pace per riflettere sui punti comuni delle diverse religioni e culture. Spero che in un futuro le religioni e le correnti di pensiero possano essere fonti di ispirazione e confronto reciproco per un costante arricchimento collettivo, non pretesti per guerre con altri fini e strumentalizzazioni di massa…insisto però sulla parola “SuperUtopico” perchè purtroppo questo futuro è ancora molto lontano.

Oct 20, 2014: Fifth Reading Response: The reading (“The Blue of Distance” from Rebecca Solnit’s A Field Guide to Getting Lost) let me think about the importance of memory in the things. Many times the memory become the thing itself. We can’t know many places, objects and people, sometimes they no longer exist, but anyway we can live them in the other memories. For this reason, when you work on a territory, it’s very important to study a place, the history and talk with people who live in that place. This slideshow requires JavaScript. Oct 13, 2014: Project Statement, “Today is Tomorrow: The Future of Colle” For my project I want to build an utopian cathedral for all religions and for all currents of thought. A spiritual place where everyone can take his time. In its architecture the Cathedral presents different archaic elements and shapes that always inspired more cultures from all over the world to find the spiritualty in his holy place; like the circle, the octagon, life, water, light and the orientation in the space connected with the cosmo. The center would have the energy: an eolicha blade that rises towards the sky provide energy building. The utopian Cathedral would be on three differents levels: the ground floor would be the space for the contemplation of the soul, for the spirit, for the prayer or just for think; The first floor would have the library of different religions and beliefs where can do also workshop and conferences; The second floor would have the canteen with the right to food; on the roof there would be a common vegetable garden. There will be an irrigation system, from the roof to the ground floor, which will feed the vertical garden on the exterior walls, connected to the channal that will pass close the building and will give energy to the building with a system inspirated by the original mills in Colle Val d’Elsa. The goal of this project is to reflect about all the common points of different religions and cultures. This slideshow requires JavaScript. Oct 8, 2014: Fourth Reading Response: Questions for Prof. Ulivieri on Vernacular Architecture Could you talk about recurring numbers in the vernacular architectures and in the different cultures? Do you think there are elements of vernacular architectures in the contemporary buildings? Sept 23, 2014: Third Reading Response: The project with Wafa Hourani makes me think of our world in the future and try to imagine how it will be. Indeed, I am doing different researches about the future. For example, the Global Footprint Network (an association that collaborates with various institutions and international personalities in order to investigate the consumption of the population and the capacity of our planet) has calculated the future datas of the Earth. According to their statistics if we continue to consume the planet’s resources as we are doing, in 2030 already we would need two planets Earth to satisfy the world demand (for more info http://www.footprintnetwork.org). I think it is an important data to know when you think of the future of Colle Val d’Elsa. I can imagine this land in few decades, in a world with more and more people of different cultures and religions, living with types of energy other than gasoline, which will probably come to an end. In this context each house will have its own vegetable garden and increasing migration flows will move towards the ‘resources chase’. Yes, we can’t avoid to be critical, but we have to do it with some optimism:, it may be difficult but it is necessary. I was very impressed by what Thea Brejzen wrote about the desire: “Etymologically, desire points us to the stars, to heavenly bodies, to unobtainable places (desire, from desiderare, middle latin sidus – star, costellation, heavenly body). […] Desire has predominantly been regarded as originating from a negative outset and resulting in a negative outcome. That, what is desired can never be obtained, desire cannot be fulfilled.” The desire starts since remoteness, from a lack, in fact the meaning is derived from star. It is not important if the desire can never be obtained, the real role of desire is to give us the reason for research, for endless effort and for change. More the desire is impossible, more the things we can do are impossible, also if we do not satisfy the desire. The desire is a time machine and projects our hope into the future. Sept 17, 2014: Second Reading Response: I get lost often in the city, I love it, the Derive. I try to notice every detail. Even in my city often I pretend i’ve never seen it, everytime I discover new things. I think it’s an exercise that everyone should do. I also agree with the thought of Chtcheglov “We are bored in the city, there is no longer any Temple of the Sun.” The “banalization” of all is making us forget the legends and traditions of the places making every place a place without history, without characteristic, without the sun. The Certeau’s difference between voyeur and walker lets me think about the Government of the Nine here in Siena; the rulers of the city couldn’t get out of the Palazzo Pubblico to avoid the risk of being corrupt. By the frescoes and the documents handed down over the centuries, until today it seems that they had understood the benefits of good governance with tolerance, peace, and justice. But how can that work for the common good of its citizens a government that doesn’t live the city? Even today, the population and the powerful live different stories, but today the benefits of good governance have no importance. The great powers of the world live another life, legislate, govern and act just for their personal interests. They are able to kill, bombing and torture for their economic purposes. It’s true that every story told automatically excludes all the untold stories, and it’s easier for the media, influenced by the States, to mold the people; they can decide in which history or in which particular instance to give more resonance and what they hide. In any case, each story must be told, transmitted, and heard, but with the awareness that it is not the only story out there, and that there are so many other stories we don’t tell and so many others that we don’t even know, maybe we could give less importance to trivial stories and be influenced less by the media. Here in Siena, the life and the value of the Contrade are very important. It is a long tradition that is still alive in the hearts of the citizens who love and care for their territory. The celebrations transform the streets of Siena in meeting places where you can eat, dance, play instruments, have fun and play together. There is a very strong relationship between the people and the urban city through actions and events that change the environment and have an impact on the experiences of individuals. Thus, based on these concepts, the Contrade are perfect Psychogeography. Sept 9, 2014: First Reading Response: I was born in a multicultural family with different religions, so I grew up crossing religion’s bounderies and I never experienced conflict, but we always mix both cultures and celebrate both with respect, taking inspiration and notions from both. My grandparents and parents have crossed many boundaries and have ventured through many different territories to reach their final destination, and I admire their hard work and persistence. They have taught me that no matter where I am in my life or what I am doing in my life I should always be confident to cross any boundaries or blocks in my path as they come. I feel strongly connected to a forest that I have dreamed about many times. It is a very special place for me because in this forest for the first time I have understood that I was dreaming and I could drive my dream. I have created this place. Dreams are a source of inspiration for me, they are a very special place where I can do everything. I think that art is like a parenthesis of dream in reality, also with art you can do everything, you can feel and show to the people what you want. You can reflect upon yourself, about others, or about a problem, a reality, and situation that we could all change. Luisa Bonesio in the document “Documento Commissione Epistemologica” about the territory said that “Territorio” from the latin could refer to verbs about agricultural activities such as: “terere, arare, triturare” (plowing); or “taurutorium”, (land worked by the bulls). The possibe derivation is also very intersting, as it may come from the same roots of the word “terrore”. terror like “terreo”, “terrere”, “atterrire” which means to scare (refers to a defensive and hostile behavior). The territory is a space, physical or mental, that you have and possess. It’s yours place because you build it and you made it on your own, you take care of this place, you live there and you defend it. But sometimes we should forget what we have to really understand what we truly have, and we should strive to be more hungry to learn new knowledge and experience from others. Sofia Bteibet was born in Milan in 1990 to a Palestinian father and Italian-Greek mother. She received her diploma in sculpture in Milan with high honors in 2013 and is currently enrolled in the program of Specialization in sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera. In 2011 she pursued a course of study with Erasmus in Lisbon, Portugal. Her works are often reflections on social issues and problems. She works with materials that are very fragile and ephemeral, using time as an element of her work. She plays with illusion to imagine different realities and rules. Precariousness and deception are the tools she uses to tell her stories and those of others. She has had the opportunity to participate in several group exhibitions in Italy, Spain and Portugal. In 2013 she was selected among the artists Under 25 for the Arte Laguna Award.

The notion of a labyrinth as a singular, fixed path, or a maze with impassable walls, is here inverted. Every turn leads to an encounter revealing not a boundary, but a repetition of architectural form. After a few turns, one becomes disoriented as there is no fixable, unique point of reference. This sensation of an endless journey with no clear sense of direction or progress is meant to reflect Sofia's experiences in dealing with Saif during his birthday retreat.

Fernando Botero Cat by Bed and Breakfast in Barcelona Gratis in Barcelona… Fernando Botero Cat by Bed and Breakfast in Barcelona Botero’s cat is a sculpture made by the Colombian artist Fernando Botero that you can find at the end of La Rambla del Raval. It was installed in the Raval Quarter in 2004 but before finding a place in this promenade, it had been installed in other parts of Barcelona. It was bought in 1987 and -amongst others- lived a while some time in the Ciutadella Park. The cat moved at least four times, maybe that’s why he looks a bit tired maybe? The sculpture is a large and fat cat, built in bronze. It weighs more than 2 tons and measures 7 meters long by 2.50 meters high, not a cat that is easily bypassed. The design lines clearly follow the round and voluptuous style of the famous painter and sculptor Fernando Botero. According to the urban legend -and mandatory to try- you will visit Barcelona again in the future if… you touch his balls. We, Barcelona residents, like to believe that for this reason his intimate parts shine more than any other part of the sculpture! We encourage you to rub them with passion…. or would you like to leave us forever? By Guest House in

Images: Lisa Kay Tate On March 29, The CW finally aired a Supernatural/Scooby-Doo “ScoobyNatural” episode, and it reminded me why I love old school animation. The first animated cel I ever saw, as a matter of fact, had been in our home long before I was even born. In the summer of 1955, my mother was 15-years-old and visiting family in California. They took her to this “brand new amusement park” called Disneyland that hadn’t even been open a week. She didn’t have much money for souvenirs, but since her favorite character was Tramp from Lady and The Tramp, she found a picture of him on celluloid for $1.50. This pretty much used up her spending money, but it was worth it because this image had been used in the movie. Today, an original collector animation cel of Tramp can come with a three- or four-digit price tag depending on the condition, but thankfully my mom’s old souvenir is still in the family. When I was a teenager in the 1980s, I was fascinated by animation cel art, but even then the cost of collecting them was getting crazy. So I made my own. I found old discarded overhead projector sheets from my dad’s office, traced over cartoon images from books, magazines, and catalogs, painted them, and placed them over a solid piece of construction paper. I even thought about selling some to friends, but my mom reminded me that would be “counterfeiting,” and is in fact frowned upon by animation companies. I kept these in my room or dorm all through high school and most of college. Then I “grew up” and threw them all away, for idiotic reasons I still can’t fathom. I hadn’t really thought about these projects until I watched the ScoobyNatural episode. My teenager loves Supernatural, we all love Scooby, and I caught the cel-making bug once more. This process is even easier today, as being able to print out images we find in the size we want is at our fingertips. Office and craft stores make it easier and more affordable to purchase paint and clear paper. Original Scooby-Doo cels from the old shows are still available and still pricey. Some are even signed by prominent series animator Bob Singer, a name that seems to foretell the Scooby gang’s future meet-up with the Winchesters. Yes, Supernatural bigwig Robert Singer even directed the ScoobyNatural episode. For those who want a cool DIY, creating ScoobyNatural or any other favorite animation “cel” is something even those with absolutely no drawing skill or experience can do. You just have to know how to trace. First, find the image you want and print it out on white paper (I prefer cardstock because you are going to keep the image if you want to use the background). Place a piece of clear acetate, mylar, or similar material over the picture and tape the corners to hold it in place. You can get these transparent sheets at craft, school, or office supply stores. Shrink art paper works well, too, if you want to make charms. Next, trace over the “foreground” images with a fine line felt tip marker. These include the characters and sometimes significant props, furniture, or vehicles. Tracing the cel: Print out or find an image, place the clear sheet over it, and trace it with felt tip marker. Place the printed image aside until later. When watching an animated production, remember the backgrounds are created separately to give a sense of depth. When the marker has completely dried, turn the image over on a white or light surface so you can see it well. Using acrylic or craft paint, paint the smaller details first (patterns on clothes, facial features, etc.). Use the printed image as a reference, or create your own color scheme. You can also use gel pens for the smaller details. Let this layer dry completely, and then fill in the larger areas, covering the smaller areas. If you get outside of the edges, wait until it dries and carefully scrape off the excess with a wooden toothpick. Don’t use anything that will scratch your clear paper. To paint your cel, flip it over and paint the smaller areas first. Once dry, add the larger spaces. Don’t be stingy; dab the paint on to make it thick. Turn this image over and align it with the original printed image. Hold the edges in place with clear craft glue. There! You have a “cel.” Be creative and add your own backgrounds or solid colors if you just want a “study” of the characters. You don’t have to make these cells full “letter” size, either. Two or three 5″ x 7″ or “postcard” size images look cool arranged together. Think outside the box (or picture frame). I added a ScoobyNatural intro logo design cel using an old 45 vinyl record as a background to balance out the retro look. I then tacked a shrink art cell image on for fun. My retro ‘ScoobyNatural’ wall art combining an old 45, logo cel, and mini shrink art cel image. For those who do like to draw freehand, find one of your own favorite pieces of fan art or original characters, and try this with your own images. These make great room decorations or look good on gift cards for Supernatural and Scooby fans. Not everyone can afford to pick up original cel art, but with a little creativity and paint, you can have the next best thing. Like, right, Scoob? Liked it?

With silver painted trim, wooden dials and details, Plexiglas viewers, lens and hand-painted serial numbers and branding. The lens is marked Leitz Elmar 1:35 F=50 mm and the body LEICA Ernst Leitz Wetzlar Germany, and bears serial number 114052, which we believe to be the serial number of an early prototype camera still in existence today. Only 950 bodies of the reporter were ever made making it a very special camera indeed. Size: 24 x 8 x 9 inches (61 x 20 x 23 cm). Reference: According to Luigi Crescenzi in Classic Camera issue 19, s/n 114051 was later modified to a 250 GG and s /n 114052 still exists (in a chrome finish). Early camera retailers would have been familiar with the concept of using dummy camera models in their retail establishments - much as with high-end electronic goods on display in stores today - these display versions would have been made to scale, using actual camera casings but with no internal mechanisms. These dummies would have demonstrated the new designs well to prospective buyers, but as these were expensive items to purchase, the dummies would have meant that retailers would not have had to take their displays down each night for security. However, the model illustrated here, being one in an available collection of seven pieces, known as Riesen-Models (great models) are the exception, and made to massive scale to faithfully resemble the actual models but would have been used for trade fairs and exhibitions, or for press and publicity for the release of a new design. Made with an almost obsessional attention to detail, these replica cameras are made in wood with textured Rexine coverings, hand-painted dials, branding, trim and even transparent ‘lenses’, and have all the features of the originals, and in some instances employ actual camera film roll casings and lids, to create the dials and details.

Van Praet’s oeuvre evokes a fascinating ambiguity where narrative exuberance goes hand in hand with the less-is-more austerity of minimalism. His work falls under a particularly Flemish brand of surrealism that plays with both words and images, rooted in a folkloric imagination. These self-imposed limits have served as a guiding principle for the design of everyday items, allowing his unusual or quirky creations to form a synthesis of the utilitarian and the potential of the material. The complexity of Van Praet’s body of work is extensively presented in this large monograph, from interior design and furniture making, to his forays into installation art and architecture. 412 p, ills colour & bw, 25 x 29 cm, hb, Dutch/English Buy this title from: Idea Books Direct

As a part of already existing landscape structure of Za’abeels Park, the “ice city” emblem is fully integrated by respecting the existing topography of the site and by treating the project as an additional park element in larger scale (sculpture). Arena Zagreb Arena Zagreb is multifunctonal hall with the footprint of 90340 m2. It is located in the southwestern part of Zagreb, Croatia, at one of the main city entrances. Also it lies opposite of popular Zagreb recreation and sports center Jarun. Arena Zagreb became a new city emblem in one of its main axes, offering to the citizens a large palette of amusement events. Small house & Studio Miletic – Dail This house is located in Zagreb suburban area with rural environment. Existing unit was about to be renovated and transformed into a new and modern habitat by upgrading some elements – such as gallery and external annex of the house. Facade of the existing house was renovated while annex was built in the back yard – house direction is defined with one – edged roof oriented towards greenness and hill-side. CONTEXT – parcel is situated on the outskirts of the town (SE part), morphologically a quite specific heterogeneous environment. A morphology of single volume building is presented by transformation of forms which unite the logic of existing elements of greenhouse/train/hangar and architectural interpretation of the facilities. Western facade represents the view of the building’s section itself on that very position. Northern and southern facades are perforated by a random pattern of openings, giving two-way lighting to the interior. Night brings the inverse effect, as the luminous projections on the cylinder create a dotted morphology for the mono-volume building. Roof cover is kal-zip steel sheet.

Here’s the second of our two part series, to give you a little background information before your visit to the local galleries, buildings and art installations. ART IN THE LATTER HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY The numbers of educated Latvians had swelled by this time. The 19th century saw a new era of national pride. Educational opportunities spread to the less wealthy, including art training. Artists became inspired to form societies with the main purpose of creating a national art. Eclecticism (1860s-80s) was the earliest stage of modern art development, which initially appeared in Latvian architecture. It combines elements of various earlier styles of art. Painting - New genres included portraiture, historical representation and landscapes. Jānis Staņislavs Roze created restrained, photographically precise portraits of wealthy German and Russian aristocrats, but he also painted Latvians. Carl Huhn was most recognized for his romantically treated historical works, and Jūlijs Feders for landscape painting. Sculpture - The most notable artist was the German August Volz. His masters created sculptural decorations for most buildings, and also parks. Art Nouveau's (1890s-1910s) basic idea was the integration of art. Its influence is particularly noticeable in architecture and applied arts, as well as in painting. Artists were inspired by flora and fauna, and the dynamics between the organic and inorganic in nature. Art works are characteristically asymmetrical, and often depict mythical fantasy worlds. Impressionism, which had peaked earlier in France, arrived in Latvia almost simultaneously with Art Nouveau. At the end of the 19th century, Riga had become a European city. Exhibitions were frequently held, including those of foreign artists. This contact encouraged local artists to keep up with other European nations while retaining their individuality. Art education was enhanced with the opening of places like the Riga City Art School (1906), and the City Art Museum (1905). Painting - The most influential painters were Jānis Rozentāls, Vilhelms Purvītis and Jānis Valters, who elevated Latvian art to European levels by setting high quality standards. Rozentāls and Purvītis became the first art critics, describing local and European art development. This laid the foundation for well-informed art appreciation amongst Latvians. The search for individual style and the use of impressionist brush strokes are seen in Rozentāls’ portraits (e.g. “Zem pīlādža” (Under the Rowan) 1905), reflecting emotional and spiritually rich people. He employed curvaceous line rhythms, and borrowed Eastern decorative themes (“Princese un pērtiķis” (The Princess and the Monkey) 1913). Most typical examples of monumental Art Nouveau painting are the Rozentāls' frescoes of 1910 on the facade of the Riga Latvian Society house. The scene depicts mythological Latvian images. Purvītis pioneered the nation’s landscape painting tradition. The works of Valters are examples of perfection in their use of color. The artist was fascinated by lighting effects. Often Art Nouveau lines are discernable (“Pīles” (Ducks) 1898). Sculpture - Art Nouveau was widely employed in the decoration of building interiors and facades. The artists encoded a symbolic content within sculptural decorations, depicting the properties of water and tree motifs that represent life and fertility.

There are so many zombie computer games, zombie computers, zombie armies, zombie movies, even zombie artists. Anne Billson in The Guardian Weekly report on zombies in films. “Lively time for the movie undead” (10/7/09) The suburbs are full of zombies, the inhabitants look like people but they lack a life. Sure these zombies are animated and often employed, zombie slaves make good workers for menial labour, but they are not living their own life. How to live your own life is an important cultural question. Other people might value your life for their own reasons, some want to eat your brain. Speaking of dead I’ll segway to mention that Famous When Dead will close after two years, the only remaining question is – will it be famous now that it is dead? And Utopian Stumps is about to up stumps from Collingwood move into the CBD next year. 696 has closed, too. I’m sure that other galleries in Melbourne have shut or moved this year but I don’t want to dwell on the business side of Melbourne’s art world. In the art I am glad to see an increasing trend of artist-gardeners and street art sculpture in 2009 and I hope to see even more next year. Victoria’s draconian anti-graffiti legislation is impacting on some of Melbourne’s municipalities, like the City of Kingston but not others, like the City of Moreland, where the Don’t Ban the Can group is active and trying to get the council to support street art projects. They are having more success with painting the walls of the local businesses and getting in the local paper. The best, the worst, the new trends of 2009 are now behind us. Personally 2009 has been a busy year for me with weddings, funerals and travel to Singapore (thanks Kamal, Killer Gerbil and Slac for showing me around the street art scene). I was also kept very busy for a few months as the volunteer and emergency secretary for the Melbourne Stencil Festival, a position that I will be continuing in 2010. I now have my YouTube Channel featuring videos of my art and exhibitions, as well as, other videos about Melbourne’s visual arts. I have also started a fun blog with my wife, Catherine, featuring the worst window-shopping in the world: Who Buys This Stuff? Typical of Internet weirdness the most popular photo on this blog this year was one of me wearing some fancy Indian clothes. I do have two sets of ordinary Indian clothes that I wear on days over 30 degrees; they are far more comfortable and better looking than shorts with a t-shirt. So here it is once more. Cool Cats The cattery carpark in Collingwood, a collection of images of cats created in a collective and collaborative work by local street artists. The carpark is appropriately next to Cat Cosmopolitan, a cattery on the corner of Langridge St. and Wellington St. in Collingwood. Taken as a whole work, as a collaborative effort, this is possibly the largest work of art featuring cats since the Sphinx was constructed. To give a short history of the depiction of cats in Western art, and it is a very short history because there aren’t many after the Egyptians. Occasionally a cat is included in 13th century frescos, particularly scavenging scraps under the table in scenes of the last supper. Cats would continue to be included in scenes with other collections of domestic animals throughout Western art but were rarely the focus of artistic interest. When the Impressionists started to paint domestic scenes images of cats became more common but in the 20th century there was an explosion of cat images with the emergence of cartoon cats. Busker Artists There are a variety of types of busker artists: the street corner portraitists, the caricature artists, the chalk sidewalk artists, the guys making outer space scenes with aerosol spray cans (using the lids to stencil in planets). There are lots of these guys doing the same routine in all the cities around the world. The sidewalks of Southbank in Melbourne are covered with the chalk of sidewalk artists. “Screevers can sometimes be called artists, sometimes not.” Wrote George Orwell; I re-read part of his book Down and Out in Paris and London to see what has changed in street art since the 1930s. Orwell classifies all street entertainers as “beggars” even the street acrobats. “As the law now stands, if you approach a stranger and ask him for twopence, he can call a policeman and get you seven days for begging. But if you make the air hideous by droning ‘Nearer, my God, to Thee’, or scrawl some chalk daubs on the pavement, or stand about with a tray of matches – in short make a nuisance of yourself – you are held to be following a legitimate trade and not begging.” There are still the occasional street entertainers who are basically begging, like the guy on Swanston Street with his naïve drawings of buildings, but the majority of buskers and sidewalk artists are proficient and professional. Musicians with paid gigs later in the evening, magnificent chalk drawings (generally copies of old masters) on rolls of heavy paper taped to the sidewalk or little craft stalls full of bicycles made of twisted wire. Living sculptures as a special type of mime busker artist. Their stiff painted clothes and painted skin. These buskers have been around in since the early 1990s. Maybe Gilbert and George, the living sculptures, and their “Underneath the Arches” performance in 1970, inspired the busker living sculptures (or was it the other way around?). Melbourne and Barcelona have the best living sculptures that I have seen. These artists really put effort into their costume and routine. In other places they are little more than begging with a mask and simple costume. Living sculptures move in response to a coin being put into their tin. At other times they remain as still as a statue, in this way it has some relation to modelling for an artist. One of the best living sculptures that I have seen is Albert Stone. Albert Stone, as his name suggests, is a Magrittean stone man with platform incorporating roses. The burgundy baroque lady in Melbourne is another living sculpture of exceptional detail. Perth artist Christian de Vietri has created a sculpture based on living sculptures. Her robot sculpture – “Tim” (2006, aluminium) is in GoMA’s collection. Robots are common image for living sculptures especially as they can combine simple light and sound effects in their costume. Christian de Vietri - Tim (2006) Street entertainment is now expected by public, and is licensed, or even funded by local councils. Buskers, sidewalk artists and living sculptures are part of life on Melbourne’s streets; there is more art on the streets than just graffiti. The change in street art may, in part, be due to the romantic focus that George Orwell and other writers placed on them, but there has also been a change in the culture of the street. Street Art Uncut Flipping through Matthew Lunn Street Art Uncut (Craftsman House, 2006) is the only way to read it. The book documents Melbourne’s street art scene with lots of pictures and some text. However, there is no structure to the book, no table of contents, a pictography but no index. Street Art Uncut profiles individual Melbourne street artists and looks at individual pieces and series of pieces. It of explores techniques and themes in graffiti. Street Art Uncut, as its title indicates, has a wider view of street art than just stencils including tagging, advertising vandalism, political graffiti and even handmade house numbers. In writing about the techniques and qualities of media Matthew Lunn attempts to define the aesthetics of spray paint and other street art. He is not doing this in a dictatorial manner but in an appreciative observant way. He writes about the quality of drips, of paint on different surfaces, of different media and the rich variety of street art. He traces the way that images transform and mutate. And he questions the distinctions between art and vandalism, free art and gallery art. Another kind of street art that Lunn mentions is trolley art and includes a page of photos of arrangements of supermarket trolleys (p.133). The most complete version of trolley art that I have seen on the street, was “Mobile Home”; a supermarket trolley with a red wooden slate roof. The trolley is hung with lots of keys; inside the trolley is a sleeping bag and lots of cast, clear plastic hands. The message about homelessness is also clear. Mobile Home was by the Artful Dodgers Studios on Gertrude St., Fitzroy. Mobile Home was part of the 2007 Fringe Festival’s Site Unseen program. Matthew Lunn mentions domestic street art in Street Art Uncut but only in terms of personalized house numbers, car number plates and Xmas decorations. (p.135) He could have mentioned the ornamental welded metal gates that feature in many of Howard Arkley’s suburban scenes of Melbourne. The text is well written and covers both individual artists and all aspects of street art from tags to street art sculpture. It goes beyond the individual pieces to information on the techniques and the official responses from Melbourne City Council, the police and the Met transport. It does not forget that street art is a mass phenomenon and not just a few famous tags like Phibs, Civil, Ha Ha or Vexta. There is also geographic information about street art including a map of major sites in the city. But mostly it is lots and lots of excellent photographs of street art. Street Art Uncut is not the definitive book on Melbourne’s stencil art scene; it has yet to be written. The definitive book will be written as an obituary for the street art scene, after the statue of limitations for all the petty crimes, when work can be attributed without fear of prosecution. Street Art Uncut is essentially a picture book for adults; a coffee table art books for the young urban hip. (This blog entry is an edited version of two entries published in my old blog, Culture Critic @ Melbourne. My old blog has since been taken down for reasons beyond my control but I thought that this entry was worth republishing.) Sophie Hewson @ Lindberg Lindberg Contemporary Art was dark, black-labels, the black walls with the only light spotlighting the neo-baroque paintings of Sophie Hewson’s exhibition “Solstice – City of the Godless.” It takes a few minutes for my eyes to adjust to the gloom. The first painting that I am looking at is a large literary painting: “Goodnight Atala.” Atala is an early Romantic novella by François-René de Chateaubriand, in the novel Atala falls in love with Chactas, her half-brother, but cannot marry him as she has taken a vow of chastity. In despair she takes poison and dies. There were many paintings of Atala done in the 19th Century by Luis Monroy, Girodet and Rodolpho Amoedo. However, this is perhaps the first painting of Atala done for over 100 years. Another painting of another pair of tragic lovers “Hero and Leander”, Again this is part of early19th century Romantic literature with the poem, “Hero and Leander” by Leigh Hunt in 1819. There is eroticism to Sophie Hewson’s paintings; the erotic of curve, the twist, the transformation the revelation and, its counterpart, the hidden. It is the mysterious eroticism of white underwear that is featured in many of her paintings. It is an eroticism mixed with the instinctual knowledge of death and darkness. The putrescent flesh of a dead pig or a damp woman humping an inflatable dolphin; Sophia Hewson paints them with the same loving devotion. Her brush caresses and creates this flesh. Her paintings are then covered in thick resin, sealing in the images like insects trapped in amber. The resin fills, flooding the ornately decorated black frames. Sophie Hewson’s paintings are similar to those of Sam Leech with their resin, dark backgrounds and evocative neo-baroque sensibility. Many contemporary Melbourne artists have a neo-baroque sensibility. The baroque could be seen as a re-examination of the meaning of a metaphor, as a shifting image. Before the 17th century the meaning of the metaphor was defined by established social conventions, the world was the metaphor of the Christian god. But amidst religious schism and other social changes metaphors become a puzzle, a cipher with double meanings, perhaps even an unsolvable mystery. It is an impressive first solo exhibition for Sophie Hewson and I am looking forward to seeing more. Along with renewed the artistic interest in the baroque there has also been academic interest. There is Angela Ndalianis, Associate Professor and Head of the Cinema Studies Program at the University of Melbourne, New Baroque Aesthetics and Contemporary Entertainment and Gregg Lambert’s The Return of the Baroque in Modern Culture. Leonidas @ Sparta Place Now Brunswick has a statue of King Leonidas of Sparta in Sparta Place off Sydney Road. The statue has been the subject of local controversy, it is disliked by the local traders, and created as part of the junket politics of sister cities. Petros Georgariou – King Leonidas 2009 Greek artist Petros Georgariou sculpted the bust of King Leonidas, in a retrograde and conservative nationalist-realist style. The modeling of the bust is crude and stiff. The statute’s black marble plinth, a material alien to the local area, makes it look like a tomb. Not content to leave the 2005 remodelling of Sparta Place alone, the statue has been erected right in the middle of the mall. The placement of the plinth and style of the statue clashes with the existing contemporary style statue in the mall, New Order by Louise Lavarack. There are a lot of things wrong with the statue but not as many as the things wrong with the politicians who commission it. Roberto Calasso in The Marriage of Cadmus and Harmony argues that Sparta could not be understood before Stalin. “Lycurgus was the first to compose a world that excluded the world: Spartan society. He was the first person to conduct experiments on the body social, the true fore-father all modern rulers, even if they don’t have the impact of a Lenin or a Hitler, try to imitate.” Sparta always acted in their “national interest” and would kill and enslave to achieve this end. Mayor Lambros Tapinos said the statue symbolized “the contribution of the Greek community and its vibrant history within our municipality”. Other local politicians, like Cr Ange Kenos, have also praised King Leonidas for his defense “of human rights.” To dismiss these politicians as stupid and ignorant is to be generous or sympathetic to them, these are the kind of people who would help another Hitler and Stalin to power. I’m sure that as a politician Mayor Tapinos has learnt the highest rule of Sparta society: you can do anything; steal, rape and kill, just don’t get caught. Laconophilia may be popular but it is also amoral and delusional. I have written about Coburg’s multiple sister city junket politics before in regards to the use of the arts: see Man of the Valley and Cross Currents @ Moreland Civic Centre. I have been unimpressed with the artistic standard of these exchanges and I have seen no other evidence of any value to the City of Moreland’s three sister city relationships. Cultures @ Brood Box Wandering around the laneways west of Elizabeth St. has not been a regular feature of my exploration of Melbourne’s art galleries and street art. After all most of the art galleries are east of Elizabeth St. along Flinders Lane as are most of the laneways containing street art, or so I thought. I was looking for Brood Box, a new gallery on Rankins Lane, “off Lt Bourke Street between Queen and Elizabeth Streets”, which narrowed it down to a couple of laneways. At first I thought that Brood Box, might have been a renamed Mahoneys Gallery, but I found that Mahoneys had become a framing service in the corner of another restaurant that fill these laneways. A strange combination – the meal was so good that I think I’ll have it framed. There are other galleries and art dealers in the area but most are by appointment only. In Warburton Lane I saw there is a new gallery space but again by appointment only. Paste-ups by Miso On my walk I also saw a lot of street art, paste-ups by Miso and others, aerosol art by the Everfresh crew and others, and lots of street art sculpture. (See my entry on Street Art Sculpture.) Rankins Lane has enough street art to draw attention to it. Brood Box is a big space with a trailer parked inside selling coffee and cakes, combining an art gallery with a coffee shop. The coffee-trailer has been painted by the ubiquitous Drew Funk. There are tables and chairs but also enough wall space for a contemporary art gallery. I was looking for Brood Box because Joseph Flynn was exhibiting. I had interviewed Joe for my entry on Fine Art Education and I wanted to see how his career was progressing with this exhibition. Joseph Flynn’s exhibition, “Cultures” is two series of drawings on large sheets of paper. I found my self steeping back across the laneway and looking through the entrance of Brood Box to get far enough back to taken in one of the drawings as a drawing of a face. Up close the intensity of the lines that form the pictures look like circuit diagrams, cultures of bacteria or star-maps. There are many star and psychedelic references in the images and titles of this main series of drawings. The second series of drawings are more colourful with outline drawings of faces overlayed on top of one another. Flynn shows a great deal of confidence and skill in the execution of these large images. I saw a few other exhibitions on my walk around the city but Cultures at Brood Box was the best that I saw that day. Get every new post delivered to your Inbox.

The exhibition opens with a reception for AMA members at 5:30 pm on Thursday, April 20. Steve Hinton & Friends … From the Beginning will open to the public Friday, April 21, and continue through Saturday, Aug 12. The AMA is located at 311 Meadowlark Drive in Albany, and admission is free for everyone. “Steve Hinton’s visionary work, borne from decades of observations of life around him, particularly the teeming cast of characters and enchanting landscapes of Southwest Georgia, evokes the pure freedom of an artist who never shied from his vision, however familiar or mysterious, lyrical or dissonant, intimate or grand,” AMA Executive Director Andrew J. Wulf, Ph.D., said. “Whatever his inspiration du jour was, it was above all charming, inviting, thought-provoking, even pleasantly absurd. We’re honored to show the work of this prolific and original artist.” The exhibition includes works by Hinton, which will be shown in the Haley Gallery; works by his friends, which will be in the East Gallery, and works from the Hinton family’s personal collection, which will be in the upstairs McCormack Gallery. “This summer, the Albany Museum of Art will have the pleasure to be a gathering place once again for the joyful and eclectic artworks of Steve Hinton,” Director of Curatorial Affairs Katie Dillard said. “This exhibition will present an array of works made during his lifetime, as well as works created by friends of Steve and his wife, Bronwyn. This celebration of Steve’s work will give viewers the opportunity to step into a lifetime of creativity, friendships, and artistic collaborations.” Hinton is known for his rich use of color, and for his ability to capture the essence of his subjects—many of whom were his friends—on canvas. The viewer experiences the world through his eyes and perspective, whether it is a breathtaking South Georgia sunrise breaking through the branches of tall trees in the woods or a scene full of activity with friends enjoying a delightful afternoon in the water or onshore at a lakeside home. He painted and drew what he loved: family, friends, parties, dogs, kids, Southern landscapes, and architecture…frequently all in the same artwork. There is a clever, whimsical foundation in his work that is playful and joyful at heart, offering a sly, subtle wink to the viewer from the artist. The exhibition also will include audio-visual presentations on a screen in the Hodges Gallery. Featured will be music by Chip Epsten, The Method Actors, and Clyde (Edgerton) and the Rank Strangers; spoken word recordings by Edgerton and O. Victor Miller; the short film Tricks by Beaty Reynolds and Chris Graves, and two stop animation films, Landings and IGS Particles, by Lily Ericsson. “These artistic contributions to the exhibition underscore the theme of friendship, how Steve’s path crisscrossed with so many creative people,” Dillard said. A native of Chattanooga, Tenn., Hinton earned an art history degree from Vanderbilt University in 1974. He and classmate Bronwyn married, and the couple moved to New York, where Steve painted and showed his work out of a Chelsea studio while working for Frank Macintosh and Peter Barton at Henri Bendel. The Hintons moved to Albany in 1982, where Steve worked at his family’s business before launching his career as a full-time professional artist in 1997. The 2002 Georgia Artist of the Year, he continued painting and drawing until his passing in February 2021. As much as Steve has been an influence with his artwork, both he and Bronwyn have been integral supporters of the Albany Museum of Art for decades, serving in a number of critical capacities, and selflessly working at fundraisers and events. Steve, a lifetime member of the AMA Board of Trustees, also served for a period as interim director of the museum. In 2022, the Hintons were honored by the Friends of the AMA as AMA Treasures with a tribute video. The Hintons’ deep involvement in the community did not stop with the museum. They have given generous support to numerous causes and organizations, and Steve was instrumental in bringing a Georgia Public Radio station to Albany. “Friends from both near and far have contributed to this exhibition. The Albany Museum of Art would like to thank each of the generous lenders for joining us in honoring this tremendous individual,” Wulf said.

The fair runs December 6-8, 2024 at the Miami Beach Convention Center. MIMI SMITH: Breaking News focuses on the artist's series of rarely exhibited Television Drawings, which recorded live news broadcasts in the 1970s and 80s, along with a newscast performance video of the artist reading the news; a series of conceptual clocks that chronicle pressing issues throughout the 1980s and 90s; and a critical clothing sculpture installation that addresses women in the workplace and, by extension, women's rights (Smith is the first known artist to create clothing as sculpture in the 1960s). This presentation will also include a handmade book of original drawings—an elaboration of her Television Drawings series. Smith’s use of relatable, everyday materials and personal narratives empowers her works to raise questions that expand beyond early feminist issues to social matters that are as prescient today as they were when she created the work. Exhibiting multiple series together, it becomes evident that Smith's works are layered and do not simply rest in satire. Smith's multi-disciplinary practice, using quotidian objects and vernacular language and performance—from clocks to conceptual uniforms to recorded rhetoric—draws out critical conversations on contemporary matters. The Television Drawings encapsulate Smith's desire to relate her work to her life and ours. As a stay-at-home mother of two young children in the 1970s, she would often have the TV on in the background. She recalls, " I began to do these drawings because the constant information of the world invading my studio and home was not avoidable. However, I was still involved with the basic theory of relating my work to experiences in a society that are shared by many people.” Smith’s Television Drawings were created before the advent of 24-hour news channels. Depicting daily morning, noon and evening news broadcasts as calligraphic stanzas, installations, audio works, and performances, her meticulous cursive transcripts documented such current events as the 1976 Ford-Carter presidential election, the Jonestown Massacre, Thanksgiving 1978 and Black Friday, a toxic spill at a New Jersey waste site, Princess Diana and Prince Charles’ wedding, Mia Farrow's divorce, a city bus accident, violence in America, the economy, weather, sports and a host of other daily stories. Smith’s Clock Series presents an array of vintage wall clocks (like those found in schools and offices) with faces and hands that tally the urgency of pressing matters such as women’s rights, gender parity, the environment, AIDS, and gun violence. The clocks are augmented with paint, printed news clippings, and images collaged over the face, minutes and hours. Slave Ready: Corporate (1991-1993), Smith’s clothing sculpture installation, features a “dress for success" garment: a grey pinstripe suit edged in steel wool—a conceptual form of armor for women climbing the corporate ladder. To the right of the suit a wall clock reads “Just a Minute, Please” (as if women’s equity can wait), and on the left side, a computer Error Message painting exclaims “Slave Ready.” In the 1980s, Smith learned computer programming which inspired a series of paintings of computer error messages. This series critiques biases prevalent in the early "master-slave" computer-user language which was highly coded for inaccessibility. Re-examined in the present moment, the works presented in MIMI SMITH: Breaking News poignantly critique notions of progress, illuminating critical matters that continue to be lightning rods in contemporary society. Smith's works ask us to consider the terms of everyday life and particularly their connection to women's experience. Her language is both wry and consequential, stimulating the viewer to question how public policies and private lives are interconnected. Mimi Smith (b. 1942, Brookline, MA) received her BFA from Massachusetts College of Art in 1963 and her MFA from Rutgers University in 1966. Her work was included in the seminal exhibition WACK! Art and the Feminist Revolution (2007) at MoCA, Los Angeles, CA and PS1, Queens, NY, curated by Connie Butler, and has been exhibited extensively throughout the United States and internationally at such institutions as the New Museum, NY; The Museum of Modern Art, NY; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; Harvard Art Museums, Cambridge, MA; Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco; Rhode Island School of Design, Providence; The Bronx Museum, NY; Mass MoCA, North Adams, MA; Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris, FR; Hayward Gallery, London, UK; and The Institute of Contemporary Art, Tokyo, JP, among others. Smith has been awarded a Joan Mitchell Grant, a New York Foundation of the Arts Fellowship, and a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship Grant. Smith's works are in the collection of the Baltimore Museum of Art, MD; Museum of Modern Art, NY; The Getty, Los Angeles, CA; Spencer Museum of Art, Lawrence, KS; Fogg Art Museum, Harvard Art Museums, Cambridge, MA; The Museum of Art, Rhode Island School of Design, Providence, RI; For further information, including images and previews, please contact Gallery Director, Brianna Bakke at 213-395-0762, or gallery@luisdejesus.com.

Office of Experiments developed three ‘data monsoons’. Realised as an event based light sculpture with sound – the work was experienced in relation to three topological architectural models, fieldwork video and data drawings that mapped changes to climate. The research and fieldwork focused on climate change across three cities in the Bay of Bengal. Video, fieldwork, models and data were developed by Monsoon Assemblages as a dimension of their own practice in architecture, with assistance on models from Shape Studios. Together, the approach to an assemblage echoed theoretical concerns that intersect with our own interests in the experimental. Installed remotely due to COVID by the curatorial team at MIT led by Hashim Sarkis, Office of Experiments temporal artwork is active every 30 minutes for 18 minutes. Each storm lasts 6 minutes, and moves across the models of the cities, reflecting the migration of the Globe Skimmer Dragonfly and the changing patterns of the monsoons intensity. Our interest in the fascinating research led by Monsoon Assemblages is shaped by our own ongoing interest in the use of data that challenges scientific objectivity, and that is at odds with the data scientists and specialist claims of data as a form of ‘truth to nature’. In this respect, we hoped to foreground the highly subjective experience of climate change by human and non-humans through the sensory use of NASA climate data modelled over 6 months. Talking about the installation, Dr Lindsay Bremner The research project was proposed by Dr Lindsay Bremner to the 2015 European Research Council (ERC) who awarded her with a Starting Grant of €1.5m. The Preview Video was developed with John Cook and Beth Cullen of Monsoon Assemblages – 2021

Between 1933 and 1945, his ambiguous attitude towards the Third Reich still rises many controversies. Even though he was never a member of the Nazi Party he accepted many commissions from the regime. Born into a military family, Carl Orff was introduced to classical music at an early age. His mother who was an amateur pianist encouraged him to study the cello, piano and organ. In 1917 he was called up but was demobilized due to injury before the end of the year. After his return from the Front he was appointed by the Mannheim and Darmstadt Operas but relinquished his role at the Darmstadt in order to concentrate on his composition studies. While studying the works of Claudio Monteverdi he developed a passion for the Italian Renaissance, and performed in several productions of Orfeo. In 1937 Carl Orff created what would become his seminal masterwork Carmina Burana. This work was inspired by the discovery of several poems from the Middle Ages found in Beuren Abbey, close to Munich. In Carmina Burana texts in Latin, Middle High German and Old French are combined. The secular subjects depict universal topics: lust, gambling, the pleasures of alcohol, the ephemeral nature of life... The most well-known movement is the choral first movement O Fortuna. In 1943 Orff composed Catulli Carmina and then Trionfo di Afrodite which along with Carmina Burana form the 1953 trilogy - Trionfi-Trittico Teatrale Following the immediate success of Carmina Burana, Carl Orff requested his publisher to cease publication of his previous works. Carl Orff developed a passion for music education, to such an extent that he considered his work in this domain as an integral part of his work. "Every human shares an innate sense of creativity, my objective as an educator is to discover and reveal the creator that lurks within us all" Carl Orff, in the documentary Carl Orff by T. Palmer (1997) After founding the Günterschule school with dancer Dorothy Günther in 1924, Carl Orff created an educational collection known as the Orff-Schulwerk. This method was based on learning music in an intuitive way through the use of percussion instruments, song and movement. Carl Orff died aged 86 and was interred according to his wishes at Audechs where a festival dedicated to his memory, Orff in Andech, takes place annually. Three Landmark Dates in the Life of Carf Orff : 1912 : Munich Music Academy 1924 : Founded a school of dance with Dorothy Günther 1948 : Publication of his book on his music education « Musik für Kinder » Three Key Works by Carl Orff 1913 : Gisei, Carl Orff's first opera, based on a Japanese play. Contains musical influences from Debussy, Puccini & Richard Strauss. 1937 : Premiere of Carmina Burana in Frankfurt 1939 : Composed the operas Der Mond and Die Kluge based on the Grimm fairytales.

His previous company D.M. Guitars started trading in 1990, offering a full repair, refinishing and custom guitar service. D.M. teamed up with Burns London in 1993 for paint finishes and eventually made bodies and pre-Chinese Burns prototypes, as well as doing paint finishes for a host of other companies and carrying out the entire production for JJ Guitars from 2004-2010. In 2010 Dan started to phase-in MacPherson Guitars, before closing D.M. Guitars for good in 2013 to focus solely on his own brand of guitars and basses. Dan brought three of his creations into the GI studio for me to test out, all variations of his Pagan model which is the modern Rock guitar in his new line. Dan offers three levels of instrument for each design in his catalogue; the Standard (which all three of these instruments fall under), the Stock Custom (whereby he modifies designs with specs including exotic wood choices and tops) and the Private Order Custom where the customer can have a guitar built to their own exact specifications. Even though all three Pagans were from the Standard line, they all had different specifications to demonstrate the range of features available from MacPherson guitars; as Dan is building all these guitars himself he often changes up the details on each instrument, an advantage of being an independent luthier. Standard across all three instruments were the S-style body shape, 24-fret Canadian rock maple neck, bolt-on construction and dual humbucker pickup configurations. All three guitars featured different neck profiles; a flat D that felt familiarly modern and what I expected to find on a contemporary Rock instrument, a modern C profile which felt more traditional and should please the legion of players who feel uncomfortable on the thin neck profiles of most mainstream modern Rock axes, and a positively anorexic ultra thin D profile which Dan created to prove it could be done! Although the third profile proved too thin for my taste I have no doubt there’s a shredder out there who would love it, while the modern C and flat D profiles both felt instantly familiar and comfortable in my hands. The three necks featured pau ferro, Indian rosewood and maple fretboards, all bound using wood cut from the fretboard blanks to ensure there are no rough fret edges to spoil the smoothness of the neck overall. The binding was finished immaculately on all three instruments and looked absolutely superb, a really nice touch and an indication of the time, skill and dedication that’s gone into creating these instruments. They all featured a radius of 9.5 to 16 inches, a large compound radius that Dan has created that really feels unique under the hands; the fingerboard feels like a vintage instrument close to the nut and flattens out considerably towards the higher frets. I instantly liked this design, finding it supremely comfortable and intuitive under my fingers. The necks also featured a 3.5 degree angled headstock for ideal string tension and graphite or bone nuts. The bodies of all review models were swamp ash, with comfort cuts and a recessed neck pocket for extra upper fret access and weight relief. As would be expected from a man with extensive paint experience, the finishes on all three were fantastic, with a transparent purple gloss finish, a transparent red matte finish and a natural matte lacquer which all looked absolutely brilliant. My favourite of the three was the transparent red, as the matte finish really looked contemporary and suited the stylings of the guitar overall. The guitars all featured top quality hardware from Hipshot, Schaller and Gotoh, installed and set-up to perfection. Each instrument featured different pickups from three different UK based pickup manufacturers; Oil City, Gemini and renowned British luthier Steve Smith’s own Johnson Buckers. I had no prior experience with any of these pickups but found all to be excellent, with great dynamic range and responsiveness. In the accompanying video I did my best to demonstrate the full variety of different guitar sounds that I felt could be accomplished with any of these guitars. Pickups are really a matter of taste and preference but I was genuinely impressed by all three of the brands I encountered here, all giving the more established pickup brands a run for their money and definitely worth thorough investigation from any serious tone hound. It’s important to remember that most MacPherson guitars are sold direct and therefore all of the options I’m mentioning here are selectable by the customer when placing an order. In addition to all of the specifications that I’ve gone through, a really key feature of these guitars is that Dan builds them all by hand using traditional tools and methods, without the use of CNC machines. This is the mark of a true craftsman and really sets MacPherson guitars apart from the majority of the competition. The exquisite details of the instruments and the perfection of the work on all three guitars is truly outstanding, and the handmade aesthetic ensures that each guitar is a unique, personal creation which should really appeal for those in the market for a custom guitar. Of course, these guitars won’t appeal to everyone. For many people looking to spend north of US $2,500/£1,500 on a musical instrument, only a classic design by a world famous brand will do. The influence of established player endorsements and the legacy of some of the world's great guitars has as much influence on many prospective buyers as build quality, aesthetics and tone, and this is a tough problem to overcome for independent builders. In addition, the resale value of instruments such as these is unreliable at best so they can never be viewed (or justified to suspicious spouses!) as a safe investment. On the other hand, serious players and professionals with experience of a variety of guitars and a solid knowledge of exactly what they want may prefer the personal touch offered by an independent luthier, and the quality and diversity of specifications on Dan’s guitars suggest that anyone in the market for a top-of-the line electric guitar and looking to buy something a bit special and different from the norm would do well to check out the MacPherson line. When you take away the question of brand snobbery, Dan MacPherson's Pagan guitars are actually exceptionally good value for money, costing a lot less than what are essentially mass produced guitars from the industry 'big names', while offering levels of quality and personality that you won't get in many cases, even from so called 'custom shop' models. We liked these. A lot. Issue 29 Cover Issue #67 Michael Schenker Out Now Read the Mag

Her research-intensive projects begin with figurative props that are produced by the artist and manipulated in performance or role-playing scenarios. The resulting multi-media installations encompass sculpture, performance, video, digital processing, and drawing. With these disparate gestures, Holman advances a common purpose: excavating and unraveling the myths that structure our social world, whether it’s the origins of the family or lingering biological imperatives. Her work has been exhibited internationally, including the Museum of Modern Art Sao Paulo, Brazil; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco; The Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art, and BnD Studios in Milan. In 2007 she was honored with SFMOMA’s biannual SECA Award and also a residency at the Hedlands Center for the Arts. She recently released her first self-titled catalogue. Her work is part of numerous museum permanent collections including the Berkeley Art Museum, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Hammer Museum.

He studied psychology and art history at university. In 1983 he accepted an internship at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice. Subsequently, as a cataloguer of modern paintings for Bonhams Auctioneers, he viewed many thousands of paintings and gained a real understanding of detail and effect. In 1986 he moved to Venice and painted outdoor oil sketches in varying light conditions. From 1986 he turned to painting full time, working initially in Italy, then Scotland and since 1991, West Cornwall. He has held numerous solo exhibitions over the last thirty years and has exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts, The New English Art Club and the Royal Society of Portrait Painters. He is an elected Academician of the Royal West of England Academy. For over twenty years his work was characterised by imaginative figure paintings but currently he engages directly with subject matter that he loves and concentrates on large scale still life, interior and landscape compositions in a fluid and painterly style. Alan is an artist who manages that rare balance in painting, his works appear simultaneously classical yet utterly contemporary in effect. In recent years he has worked towards perfecting large scale still-lifes, each characterised by daringly fluid paintwork and a refreshing economy of style. The subject matter is carefully chosen and each painting is prepared over time with meticulous attention to the balance and harmony of composition. Only when the artist is completely satisfied with all elements of an idea will he approach the canvas, often completing a painting in a bout of uninterrupted activity lasting a single day. Thus a maximum level of energy is maintained in the finished work, stretching the limits of bru shwork with a directness and clarity that excites the eye. ‘In Alan’s paintings the seductive use of dash and bravura remains on a grand scale; his familiar deftness of brush and confident paint-laden strokes seem to have found their optimum canvas size. His work has evolved from subtle, contemplative, domestic set pieces to creations of light, colour and drama that are palatial in conception. I am pleased to say that his paintings have lost none of the other-worldly charm and quiet wit that is so much an extension of Alan’s own personality. Now that twinkle in the palette’s eye is expressed through style and composition not the narrative content as in the past. When standing in front of an original Kingsbury there is no room for disappointment. He is a perfectionist in paint who has mastered the art of making that perfection appear child’s play. Life crackles through his brush and injects such energy into each work that standing in a room of these sumptuous examples of the modern Baroque is a positively life affirming expe rience. For me, Alan is undoubtedly one of the great figurative painters of his generation. In an age where the London commercial art scene is annually suffocated by the numbing homogeneity of the latest Florentine graduates, Alan’s paintings and talent scream integrity and substance.” Matthew Hall Object Condition Object Details Dealer Opening Times We are open weekly as follows: 10:00 - 18:00 10:00 - 18:00 10:00 - 18:00 10:00 - 18:00 10:00 - 18:00 Dealer Contact +44 (0)20 7399 9999

I’m trying to make a “fake frame-to-frame” 3D animation using different models as frames. So, I have 3 models and I am using them as frame. So every n frame I turn off the current model and I turn on the next one using scaleXYZ=0 (off) and scaleXYZ=1(on) On Blender file everything is fine. I just animated the scale on the models using constant interpolation and it works fine. My problem is on Sketchfab. When I import my .blend file in here my constant interpolation get lost and it return to linear interpolation. So when I look at the animation I will recognize scaling in and out. That’s completly ruining my animation :frowning: Any help? this is a old problem that has always been like this for blender to sketchfab animations. Frames are not a 1:1 representation between blender and sketchfab. They create their own frames and if you expect some interpolation to happen over one frame in blender , in sketchfab it happens over several frames , so effects like instant hide and show never work, you can always see the interpolation happening. :frowning: it isn’t the answer I wanted to hear :frowning: thank youfor the help! Now I have to figure out an other way to achieve that effect…! Hi @tombolaso ! I am not sure this applies to your case, but maybe you can use the stop motion animation feature. Basically you can use a text file to chose which model to display at each frame.

Inside was nothing other than a two-page missive from some Midwestern Department of Corrections (I won’t give away the actual state, by let’s just say it rhymes with Silverado). It went on to explain in great detail that one of our auction catalogs had been confiscated from an inmate as ‘salacious material.’ Obviously, my thought process went as follows: 1. We have a client in jail? 2. Wait, they totally allow porn in jail. We must have a registered sex offender as a client, who happens to be in jail. 3. Oh, I hope it’s that guy who keeps trying to put his hand up my skirt during pre-auction viewings. Then of course I had to go and browse through our auction catalog just to see what on earth the po-po could possibly find lewd and offensive. I’ve come up with four options: sr-06_liv First, there’s this guy, mostly because he just suggests that there is naughtiness to be had within our hallowed pages. Of course, looking closer at the wares hidden within the folds of his flasher-coat, I can tell you that those pictures aren’t of Brigitte Bardot. They look more like a football player doing the electric slide. lop-62_liv Then there’s this chick, who seems more excited about being braless in the Alps than an early 90s tampon commercial. That said, mittens and pleated pants aren’t exactly my idea of a quiet night at home, just me and my auction catalog….gettin it on. alv-02_liv Perhaps then it was this poster which got the Federales all worried that something moist might occur in a cell after dark. Nothing says mano a mano love like granny panties, a dew rag, and knee-high wool sock — there’s a fetish for everyone, I promise. jv-2liv Oh wait, I found it. The topless nymphette begging you to make her your personal Barbie doll. Yeh…you probably don’t want to give that to a pedophileThis Is Why You Suck Friday, June 10th, 2011 Over the past three years, I’ve seen some pretty shoddy restoration work; but, at least it always looked like someone tried to do it in some legitimate fashion. Then, I unwrapped today’s wonder. No, I’m not showing you an image because I’m sure there’s some unspoken client-Posterette privilege issue at play, and lord knows I don’t need anymore jailtime. We will simply have to rely on the power of the written word to aptly describe this disaster. As many of you know, most posters have been laid on linen. This is a general practice within the industry to make sure the old paper doesn’t endure any further damage. It’s archival, it’s safe, and it’s what everybody does. Now, this linen is in no way decorative. It is purely to preserve the poster. So, when I see people frame the poster so that the linen acts as a border, I get a little worried for their intelligence. I’ve even seen people frame a poster so that the linen as well as the lot number from whatever auction house it came from shows. Lot numbers are also not decorative (especially when my third grade handwriting is making them). But all that seems to be the work of geniuses after what I just witnessed. Someone painted the linen to match the poster. Yes, rather than just frame the poster correctly, some yabatz colored the white linen in to match the background of the image. And not just with normal paint, mind you, but with pastel chalk. So here I am, my fingers a rather annoying shade of Yves Klein blue because some moron of a restorer thought that linen was not only decorative, but was also a unknown extension of the poster itself.

One of the world’s best-selling, living artists is 97 and resides in Sacramento. His name is Wayne Thiebaud. “He may not be a household name on every block, but he’s a familiar (and welcome presence in the world’s most prestigious auction house catalogs,” notes a story that recently ran in Sactown Magazine. “In 2015, Artnet ranked Thiebaud as the sixth highest-grossing living artist over the last 10 years, with sales reaching upwards of $163 million. In 2013, a painting featuring two slot machines fetched $6.3 million, a new record for his work.” Not bad for a man who started his career as a college art professor, first at Sacramento City College and then at UC Davis. Born in Mesa, Arizona, Thiebaud moved to Long Beach as an infant. During one summer in his teen years, he apprenticed at Walk Disney Studios on drawing “in-betweens” of Goofy, Pinocchio, and Jiminy Cricket at a rate of $14 a week. Following military service during WWII, he moved to San Jose and then Sacramento, earning both a bachelor’s and master’s degree. It was during the mid-’50s that he spent time in New York City, befriending such art luminaries as Elaine and Willem de Kooning and Franz Kline. Inspired by their abstractionist work, and that of proto-pop artists like Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns, he started painting a series of small paintings based on images of food displayed in windows—pies, ice cream cones, pastries—focusing on their basic shapes. By the early ’60s, he would be featured in his own solo show and soon alongside artists like Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol and Edward Ruscha. You can read more about Thiebaud and view some of his work here.

Cornelissen & Son, London On the subject of painting Sir Winston Churchill once said: “At one side of the palette there is white, at the other black, and neither is ever used neat” (https://winstonchurchill.org/the-life-of-churchill/life/artist/painting-as-a-pastime/). Painters have long been told to avoid straight-from-the-tube black or to use it most sparingly. While this conventional advice remains sound for many practitioners, artists of this century continue to challenge, reject and even massacre things conventional. Gone too is the image of the artist working in stoic isolation (though in reality many still do, like it or not). Large scale public art projects have made art into a team sport by necessity. Scientists and others from what were once regarded as distinctly different areas of endeavour are now routine players on team art. Years ago I was intrigued to learn of the once “blackest black,” an artificial mineral pigment called spinel black named after the natural mineral spinel. It was said to be the pigment used to coat stealth bombers. As a paintings conservator I’ve yet to require an ultra deep black for colour matching, but out of curiosity I purchased a small quantity from my favourite London artists’ colourmen, L. Cornelissen & Son. Fast forward to 2019, the year that MIT engineers developed a blacker black with only 0.005% reflectance of incident visible radiation, or to put it another way, a material that absorbed 99.995% of visible radiation aka “light” (http://news.mit.edu/2019/blackest-black-material-cnt-0913). From a first glance at the press release, one might conclude that this material represented an entirely new technology, but carbon nanotubes were first identified in the early 1990s. Subsequent innovations have been in the particular way the superfine nanotube particles are created, and hence the extent to which light is absorbed. Black is not a colour per se but a substance that absorbs light, however black pigments available to artists reflect a small percentage of light. Carbon nanotubes reduce this percentage to minuscule levels. An earlier innovation, “Vantablack” (vertically aligned nanotube array) with its 0.035% reflectance was developed in 2014 by Surrey NanoSystems, UK. Anish Kapoor outraged the art world by striking a deal for his exclusive use of Vantablack. Social media was littered with objections, some hostile, and a seemingly irresistible urge to take a pop at Kapoor persists. A 2016 fake news piece saw Kapoor’s monumental 2006 sculpture Cloud Gate with its famously reflective surface disappear in a shroud of Vantablack. But then along came Vantablack Vbx2, also produced by Surrey NanoSystems and so went Kapoor’s short-lived monopoly of the blackest black. Vbx2 was utilized by architect Asif Khan for his 2018 winter Olympics pavilion in Pyeongchang, South Korea. Vantablack Vbx2 is used in the automotive industry. Incidentally, the volume of pigment usage by the automotive industry is of critical importance to the art world by maintaining market demand for quality, highly lightfast pigments. As with many manufactured goods, Chinese production offers reduced costs but with a possible tradeoff in quality and dubious disclosure of composition. Artist material manufacturers are at the mercy of market forces in their access to raw materials such as pigments, which may be suddenly discontinued. Furthermore, a supply change means months of extensive testing to ensure the newly supplied material meets quality standards for art materials. This is well described by Golden Paints CEO Mark Golden in his article “Manufacturing Artist Paints: Keeping Pace with Change” (GCI Newsletter: Conserving Modern Paints, Fall 2016). In yet another intersection of art and science, and a rebuke to Kapoor, MIT’s ultra black was utilized by MIT artist in residence Diemut Strebe. Strebe collaborated with Brian L. Wardle, Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Director of necstlab and Nano- Engineered Composite Aerospace Structures (NECST) Consortium, along with team members Luiz Acauan and Estelle Cohen. The resulting installation titled The Redemption of Vanity is a 6.78 carat yellow diamond coated with the new black and presented at the New York Stock Exchange September 13 – November 25, 2019. In this context, “presented” is not quite the right word since the whole point was the visual disappearance of the brilliant cut diamond. The symbolic-charged venue of the NYSE venue added a wealth (pun-intended) of meaningful layers of interpretation. To be clear, carbon nanotube blacks were never destined for the shelves of artist supply stores. Their application requires highly specialized technology, so how should we interpret Kapoor’s deal? I doubt that these ever blacker blacks are discernible to the human eye anyway. They are designed for aerospace and military applications, and would not work as robust coatings for outdoor sculptures. Kapoor’s preoccupation with reflections and voids are long-standing, and while I have not personally seen any his black-coated sculptures, I would guess earlier black coatings adequately conveyed his intention. The bad PR for Kapoor opened another gateway for discussions about art and science and more unusually, artists’ rights of access to materials. P.S. While many fascating books about colour and pigments reside on my bookshelves, I recommend a 2016 publication The Secret Lives of Colour by Kassia St. Clair, which was a gift from a dear friend Andrea Bowes, a conservator for the Edmonton Arts Council (https://www.edmontonarts.ca).

The winners have been selected from a competition and represent the creative exploration of the poster as a medium and the versatile work of the graphic scene from German-speaking countries. The 100 Best Posters of the Year competition was launched in the 1960s. The aim was – and still is – to present and promote posters from German-speaking countries. Entries may be submitted from all areas; commissioned works, student projects, product advertisements, cultural posters or political and socially critical designs. The winning posters will be presented – without ranking – in a travelling exhibition and a yearbook. The 100 best entries are selected by a jury of renowned graphic designers and poster theorists. This year's jury consisted of Peter Bankov (Prague), Albert Exergian (Vienna), Michael Kryenbühl (Bern / Lucerne), Jens Müller (Düsseldorf) and Daniel Wiesmann (Berlin). From 2293 submissions by 657 designers, the jury received 1132 posters from 384 submitters after an online pre-selection, including 212 from Germany, 136 from Switzerland and 36 from Austria. The competition and the touring exhibition have established themselves as a well-known institution and are appreciated by designers and studios as well as by students and advertising agencies. In addition to Lucerne, this year the 100 best posters will be also shown in various places throughout Switzerland: La Chaux-de-Fonds, Lausanne, Zurich and Geneva. Find the exact schedule here.

No items found. For Front Inc. Design, Research, Contruction Project Team: Architect: Cetra Ruddy Architects Owners Rep: Levien & Company Owner: Lincoln Square Synagogue Structural: Goldstein Associates Construction: McGowan Builders The design approach was based on the identity of the congregation, as Jewish symbolic imagery played a significant role in the design of the new space and façade. In Judaism, the Torah is the “core” structure to the spiritual, educational and social values. The symbolic significance of its spiral form is the infinite and continual study of its messages. Thus, the exterior and interior expression of the building centers on the symbolic perception that the five books of the Torah provide the essence for the architectural form. The east façade with its innovative five glass undulating “scrolls” tie together the Sanctuary, the Beit Midrash and the classroom spaces. The expression of the scrolls are not only manifested on the exterior but are perceived on the interior as well through the main lobby’s glass wall and the main curved stair. Each façade ribbon is faceted by narrow 15.7" insulated, low-e, heat-strengthened glass units with pleated fabric laminated in the exterior lite and a ceramic frit pattern at the interior. This combination is UV-fitering and provides privacy for the synagogue worshipers. The panels vary in height from 8ft to 16ft, and the curtain wall framing is all custom designed and built from a panelized stick-built system. Our role started in the schematic design process and continued through the final construction phase. In order to facilitate the very precise fabrication of all the aluminum components, they were done in our local fabrication shop and we created all structural calculations, shop drawings and fabrication drawings for this comprehensive system resolved in a very high level of detail. Due to the complexity of the project, we utilized computer models integrated with the fabrication machinery to seamlessly transfer the information from the 3D model to the fabrication tables and ultimately to assembly and installation. share on social

It’s the beginning of March in New York City and everything starts to shut down. Coronavirus sweeps the city and before I know it everyone is in self-isolating quarantine. The United States is, quite literally, shut down. We have a global pandemic at hand. But what does that mean for art? What does that mean for the artists and creators? What does that mean for the lives and careers that thrive off of human interaction? It means we have to adapt. We have to find new and innovative ways to make work. We have to harness ways to capture the essence of another’s soul sans the human contact. I began photographing my friends through FaceTime. It began to grow, and I began to shoot new faces from different cities. I started making images that felt like my perception of the world again. Most importantly, I felt something I hadn’t felt in weeks and weeks. I felt the satisfaction of connecting with my subject in real time. I was creating and cultivating my vision without physically being there. And in that moment, I felt I could see again. Sydney Claire Altschuler is a Fashion and Editorial photographer based in NYC. Sydney graduated with a B.F.A. from Lesley College of Art and Design, where she learned to work with color, composition, and light. Since graduating, Sydney has become known as a connected artist-entrepreneur who is not afraid to creatively push the envelope.

According to Japan’s Ministry of the Environment, 42.74 million tonnes of garbage has been thrown out since 2019. That’s the equivalent of around 115 Tokyo Domes, or 918g of waste per person everyday. The waste cannot be exported, and so real action is required to reduce the amount of waste create on the island country of Japan, especially when thinking 20 years down the road. That’s where haishop comes in. Using caps from detergent, which are actually no longer sold, as well as plastic caps and other materials resulting from waste, it will create a new identity for waste together with consumers in the form of art. Art For Social Change aims to send a message to society to make real transformations in the world through the medium of art. It’s easy to imagine what happens when creating a product up to its completion, but considering what happens to it after it’s been used is a lot more difficult. Every year, the available capacity at final disposal sites decreases more and more. The important topic at hand is getting everyone in Japan to really treasure the products they buy, to conceive ideas on how to prolong longevity of the things that people purchase, and construct a new society centred on recycling and reusing. And this isn’t just a Japan problem – it’s a global one. That’s the message which Art For Social Change carries. The only conditions on participating with the project is that you agree with its goal and that you use materials on sale at haishop. Everyone is invited regardless of age or gender. The artworks in action 4th year students from Nitobe Bunka Elementary & Junior High School used waste materials to create ‘souvenir’ theme products which the children are helping to sell at the shop. The proceeds go back to the school itself while helping teach children about new ways of reusing and recycling.

The art group describes the work: ” The resisting and resonating ovoids placed amongst the trees shine. The light of the ovoids and the light of the trees are autonomous: they shine brightly and then fade slowly, as though they are breathing. When an ovoid is pushed, the colour of the light it emits changes and the tone unique to that color echos. The light that originated from that ovoid resonates out to other ovoids and trees nearby. The tone resonates out continuously in the same way as the light, spreading throughout the ovoids and trees.” Chiba Art Festival is one of several cultural programs hosted by Chiba Prefecture.

Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle. ~Ernest Hemingway Though I don't find myself sweating up too many hills in Miami, bicycling the 8.5 miles from South Beach to our office in Miami's Little Havana neighborhood allows me to absorb the contours of this strange city in a way that, as Hemingway notes, is only possible via foot or bike. Sure, co-workers and friends think I am a little 'insane' or 'heroic' for traveling the auto-dominated Miami streets by bike, but I wouldn't have it any other way. The freedom is exhilarating, the cost cheap, and the intimate knowledge gained about this ever-changing city irreplaceable. Before continuing, those not familiar with Miami should know that high density residential development is out of control. The building boom, which began approximately in 2002, has increased dramatically in 2007. According to Boom or Bust Miami, the city saw 24 major residential projects built from 2002 - 2006. In 2007 alone, there have been an additional 27. No other city in North America, except for Vancouver, has seen such a spike in downtown, high-rise residential building. Vancouver is known as one of the world's most livable cities. Miami is not, for reasons outlined below. The continued development may come as a surprise, given that Miami is currently one of the worst real estate markets in the country. Apparently, developers and city officials are still betting that these condos will someday fill up with people and help to populate what is essentially an extended vertical office park -- people drive in, people drive out. No one stays past 6pm. However, with little to no consideration for street life or adding to the quality of the public realm, many of the new buildings will fail to do anything but put residents high in the sky with their amenity soaked buildings. The developers win, the city as a whole loses. Though Miami 21 will revamp the city's zoning codes to ensure that all new development actually benefits the city, many fear that for this building cycle it may be too little, too late. For an urbanist, the social, political, and economic contours of 'Magic City' are both fascinating and frustrating. The following images reveal what I encounter everyday on a bicycle. My route takes me from South beach(circle at right)to Little Havana (circle at left). Leaving our 1939 Art Deco apartment unit at 7:30am. South Beach is blessed with the largest collection of Art Deco buildings in the world and should be commended for designating them as historically significant structures. At two to four stories, they allow for a dense, human-scale neighborhood urbanism, which is something that the City of Miami lacks. Departing Miami Beach by bicycle requires a pleasant ride across Biscayne Bay via the Venetian Causeway. As you can see in the image above, lush landscaping and single family homes line the water of these man-made islands. Though not the wealthiest neighborhood in the city, the Venetian Islands maintain a level of exclusivity commonly desired by the upper echelons of Miami's monyed classes. This mentality, replete with a self-entitlement complex, is unfortunately manifested throughout much of the city's latest high-rise development. Further along the Venetian Causeway the ever-developing Miami skyline reveals itself behind the calm blue waters of Biscayne Bay. Though Miami Beach is becoming an increasingly bike friendly city, Miami is most definitely not. This Venetian Causeway bike lane is utilized by cyclists of all abilities and ages. However, it ends abruptly upon entering Miami proper, effectively telling cyclists that they are no longer welcomed. It's no wonder that virtually everyone turns around and rides back towards South Beach. Also of note is the toll both in the background. It sure feels good to ride through that and not have to pay a dime. The final causeway bridge occasionally rises to make way for a passing boat, extending my ride by five minutes or so. A Jogger and fellow cyclists take in more high-rise condominium developments on the edge of Miami's CBD. After leaving the Causeway, the social and economic contours of my ride change dramatically. The picture above displays Miami's warehouse district, which is addled by vacant lots, empty buildings, poverty, and racial segregation. I count more people sleeping on the streets here than I do active pedestrians or other cyclists. High-rise condos in the background, a grouping that my girlfriend thinks are particularly scary from the street level, creep ever-closer. At the edge of the Warehouse District oversized advertisements display a high-class, sophisticated urban lifestyle. The ads conveniently cover the blight so that potential condo buyers who whiz by on the nearby highway take notice. Despite the promise of luxury, no one in their right mind walks here. Apparently that would be too much of a luxury. A nice dose of irony for my early morning ride. Approaching Miami's government center area I stopped to look back and capture the City's elevated Metromover. Despite frequent criticism and the limitations of the system, I do see morning commuters making use of it. Comparing this thing to Detroit's People Mover, a transit boondoggle of a similar vintage, shows that Miami got one thing right...it at least moves in two directions! To the right, a two-story historic arcade building begs to be redeveloped. Despite almost two hundred thousand day-time Central Business District employees (Miami DDA) and an increasing residential population, the city struggles to create viable street-level retail. Though living in Miami often feels like living in another country, the above picture shows a distinctly American characteristic -- the brutal imposition of America's highway infrastructure. The view from Miami's SW 2nd Avenue Bridge displays a boat gently cruising inland. Primarily an industrial corridor, a slowly expanding riverwalk, though inactive, is helping the Miami River slowly transform itself into a public amenity. Interstate 95 looms in the background. A brand new 30-something story residential tower nears completion at the corner of the SW 2nd Avenue bridge and SW Seventh Street. The rhythmic pulse of construction in this area is loud and consistent. For once, the architect chose to line the 9-story parking garage pedestal with habitable space along the river. Unfortunately he/she failed to do the same on the prominent intersection -- resulting in a hollow corner condition and more dead street space. Upon leaving downtown Miami, I ride west along SW 7th Street, a major east-west surface corridor through the Little Havana neighborhood. This primarily residential street is one-way and has three travel lanes. Though the posted speed limit is 30mph, I think I bike closer to the speed limit than anyone drives. I would like to take more pictures of this street, but I am usually too busy surviving. Our office, located on SW 25th Avenue.(photo courtesy of Duany Plater-Zyberk & Co.) Leaving the office in the evening I ride along SW 8th Street, or Calle Ocho as it is most commonly referred. It is the epicenter of Cuban culture in Miami. Urban conditions vary along the corridor, but the particular stretch from our office on SW 25th Avenue to downtown is fairly walkable and presents a mixture of retail, restaurant and cultural offerings. Nonetheless, the street is absolutely inhospitable to the cyclist, which is why the majority of people ride on the sidewalks. Maximo Gomez Park, located next to the historic Tower Theatre, is surprisingly quiet on this hot summer eve. Otherwise known as Domino Park, the recently redesigned plaza is typically active long in to the evening, especially on the last Friday of every month for Viernes Culturales (a neighborhood street fair/block party). Heading back over the SW 2nd Avenue bridge one can see the inactive riverwalk below, the lone elevated Metro line viaduct in the middleground and a spate of highrise residential development in the background. The brand spankin' new Federal Courthouse in downtown Miami is a complete tragedy. Due to security reasons, the entire perimeter of the block is enclosed by a chain link fence. This effectively seals off the plazas and waterfall from the public. What could be an active public space for the downtown is limited to the users of the building. No comment on the actual design of the building. The Bell South parking lot is across the street from the courthouse pictured above. Apparently, they are taking protection cues from their new neighbor. Of all the streets in downtown Miami, this one might receive 'the most dead after 6pm award.' I often ride for several blocks without seeing another human, save the loan security guard stationed at the entrance to the courthouse. It is eerie. Heading north towards the Causeway I often enjoy the juxtaposition of the historic Freedom Tower (commemorating Cuban immigration) and the American Airlines Arenas. On the night of events, the parking lot at left is filled, but otherwise the street remains empty. What would people walk to? As I ride back through the warehouse district, this banner always brings a smile to my face. The last thing Miami needs is more space! (Space is actually a popular nightclub, one of a few that is indeed helping to bring people back downtown at night). Just up the street from the Space banner is a large vacant lot with the brand new lumpen shaped Caesar Pelli designed Carnival Performing Arts Center in the background. Many hope the Carnival Center will continue to spur downtown revitalization. With evidence already showing positive results, I do too. Back on the Venetian Causeway, this final image shows South Beach from afar. With new gleaming high rises and lush vegetation, South Beach does not look all that different from Downtown Miami at a similar vantage point. However, once on the streets of the dense island city, anyone can see there is a world of difference. It is an urban oasis. It is home sweet, home. Mike Lydon is the founding Principal of the Street Plans Collaborative. Mike -- just wanted to say that I agree with your assessment of Miami. I used to live (may 2004 - Aug. 2007) just south of Calle Ocho in the Shenandoah neighborhood. I actually liked living in the neighborhood a lot, but Miami has so much unrealized potential. The density is there for a lot of pleasant, useful urban spaces to exist and be used, but so far the potential has mostly been squardered. I am still hopeful for Miami in the long-term; there is a lot of beauty there, and it could be so much more so. The climate, while not for everyone, is great in the winter, and at least for me it wasn't too bad in the summer. But you are right about the contrast with Miami Beach... let's hope that Miami begins to learn from past mistakes and begins redeveloping some of the neighborhoods into active pedestrian and bicycle friendly environments. Kudos to you for bicycling on SW 7th and SW 8th Ave... that takes some dedication!!

One of the greatest pleasures of the show is exploring the many ways in which the sculptures interact with one another in the space. With its highly dynamic forms, the work seems to rejoice in a sort of happy chaos. For Ashley, motherhood is an inspiration Ashley draws inspiration in part from her role as a mother. In their early iterations, the puffy forms of her sculptures came from Ashley’s protective maternal instincts. Since then, Ashley’s approach has evolved in a way that embraces the energy and silliness of young children. In a personal touch that adds emotional heft to the show, Ashley cuts the forms for each piece from a template of sorts loosely based on the blueprints from her home. The Happy Collaborationists bring Ashley’s work to life The dynamic, zany energy of Ashley’s inflatable sculptures is further underscored with their incorporation into a performance by The Happy Collaborationists (“Happy C”), a curatorial collective featuring performance artists Anna Trier and Meredith Weber. Donning two of Ashley’s inflatable sculptures, the pair move and dance around the Gray Space adjoining the gallery to upbeat music. Although brief, this performance encourages personification of Ashley’s sculptures, as though they were some kind of funky new creatures gallivanting in a world of their own. Ashley’s painting/sculpture hybrids challenge the traditional notion of what defines a painting, an idea Happy C underscore in their performance. Just as a beautifully rendered painting can seem to dance on the canvas, Happy C succeeds in promoting the idea that a painting can literally become a dynamic object while still retaining its beauty as an artistic object. Jeff Huckleberry explores the challenge of artistic creation through intense yet humorous performance Jeff Huckleberry’s performance, “8th Rainbow,” follows the performance by Happy C in the Gray Space. Huckleberry, a member of Mobius Artist Group and the artistic director of TOTAL ART, began his performance without introduction; he simply began laying out his various props, which included wooden boards, paint, a belt sander, a box, two cases of beer, and balloons. Unaware that the piece was beginning, the chatter in the audience did not die down immediately, making the moment when Huckleberry doused himself with two Big-Gulps filled with rubbing alcohol, followed by two cans of coffee grounds, especially striking. What followed from there was a series of actions that, while assaulting the senses in a ridiculous and entertaining manner, seemed also to grapple with the profound challenges artists face when attempting to create their work. This was clearest when Huckleberry filled his pockets with beer bottles and wrestled with an armful of long, wood boards. As he was rolling back and forth through the space, clutching this bulky mass, I empathized with him; Huckleberry seemed to be actualizing the process of wrangling an unformulated creative idea into something tangible and workable – perhaps the most difficult task an artist faces. Huckleberry personified this struggle with humor and whimsy; my husband and I found ourselves grinning constantly during the performance. The artists create a successful, accessible collaboration This is not the first time these artists have collaborated and it shows – each piece complemented the other in interesting ways. My husband and I left the gallery that night laughing and chatting excitedly about the show, eager to see more. Neither of us have much experience with the performing arts, but the performances that took place in and around Ashley’s vibrant sculptures felt exciting, engaging, and accessible. Ashley, Huckleberry, and The Happy C ably show that art can grapple with very real issues and come from personal, meaningful places but still be approachable and even highly entertaining. It’s wonderful to see art with a jubilant sense of humor that doesn’t shy away from the silly in life. distant landscapes: peepdyedcrevicehotpinkridge will be on display at The Icebox in the Crane Arts Building until May 31, 2013.

Three years of planning and creative architectural remodeling design work, and the new Saleh Barakat Gallery was born, to commemorate the XXV anniversary of Agial on 25 May 2016, in one of Beirut’s emblematic historical cultural locations: The former Cinema Clemenceau – later Masrah Al-Madina, that is now transformed into a truly modern art gallery by today’s best professional standards. Agial Logo Agial Art Gallery, established in Beirut in 1990, is one of the leading destinations for modern and contemporary art from Lebanon and the Arab world. As a pioneering platform, Agial is showcasing a broad spectrum of regional art, from the most established artists to promising emerging artists, alongside retrospective exhibitions. The permanent collection of the gallery is host to an important historical survey of Middle Eastern art, having incubated and witnessed the profound transformation of artistic practices in one of the world's most dynamic regions. Beyond the exhibition space in Ras Beirut, Agial is a global presence through participation in art fairs, off-site projects and publications, highlighting the role of the gallery in the promotion of Arab art. Representing artists across different generations, Agial is active in primary and secondary markets, with a roster of artists that has been well placed in institutions and collections, both public and private. Yet the gallery remains an open space for critical debate, cultural dialogue and cutting edge practices.

From eye-catching digital billboard ads to creative product packaging, a brand’s visual representation is now integral to its success. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a successful business that doesn’t have an effective design strategy behind it. And while it goes without saying that success is the result of many factors, a business’s visual impact plays an important part, and this impact is rooted in the effective application of graphic design. Here’s a breakdown of why graphic design is an integral tool in business: 1. Branding A business’s brand is not just its logo, but it’s certainly a part of it. Establishing a brand includes creating a unique identity that communicates a business’s visions, goals, and ideas. While your logo will definitely reflect this, a brand strategy includes carefully representing your brand across all platforms, from your storefront to your website and social media. Graphic design helps translates your identity into visual elements to communicate credibility and instill trust, thereby creating a brand that your consumers will love to love. 2. Digital marketing The world of digital marketing is heavily reliant on visual content. As your top online destination, your business website should contain all the basic elements of your brand identity, which includes incorporating the right colours and design styles unique to your brand. This also includes creating designs for platforms across the entire digital ecosystem, such as mobile applications, social media, email campaigns, and more. When it comes to digital, visual and written content go hand-in-hand to effectively convert browsers into buyers. 3. Product packaging If creating and selling a product is your bread and butter, you’ll know that appearances do matter. These days, competition is only getting fiercer, with new products constantly getting added on the shelf next to your own. While creating a great product that’s a cut above the rest matters, product packaging is about making a great first impression. It tells a unique story about your brand and helps your product speak for itself when you can’t – taking it from the shelf, to the customer’s basket and the checkout. How is this achieved? By putting together your brand’s visual elements in a coherent and compelling manner onto your packaging, in a way that only excellent graphic design work can. Graphic design should work for you Graphic design helps your business express itself in a way that nothing else can. If you want your brand to communicate your products and services to make it stand out in the competitive market, then you’re in the right place.

The building maximize open views of the exteriors and the beach, surrounded by natural look water ponds filled with local fish and crustaceans which can be picked as an option for dinner. The extensive use of round wood as main structural beams and columns, with tiki-hut hatched roof, and rock walls reinforce the feeling of pure nature everywhere you go. Additionally some areas are enclosed by frameless glass curtain walls to offer clients the same feel under and air conditioning environment. Several detached bars, and beach cabanas along the beach coast offer family private spaces with the same customer service attention, to extend the enjoyment of virgin nature.

Why are public toilets filthy? Can people take ownership of public toilets so that these can be well maintained? Can design changes to public toilets give it the much needed makeover? In an effort to answer these questions and change the way people view public toilets across the country, a Mumbai-based architecture firm ‘Mad(e) In Mumbai’ did typological investigations in public sanitation infrastructure as part of its project named Toilet Manifesto. Also Read: Solar-Powered And Self Sustainable, These Are The Toilets India Needs In Metro Cities During their investigation of the five public toilets in Mumbai, they observed that some are better maintained than others, some don’t have water supply, some lacked space for caretakers of the toilets, some had fake windows painted on walls (actual windows for ventilation were missing), and many just had hoarding of political party slogans. A public toilet with hoarding of political party slogans In conclusion, each of the public toilet facility we visited, from within, was just a box – often poorly lit and ventilated, and low on maintenance. What is fundamentally wrong with our toilets is the way we think about them… people have the habit to look at public toilets as something dirty. There is a social stigma attached to them, which eventually affects their upkeep. Through the ‘Toilet Manifesto’ project, we want to break this stigma. said Mayuri Sisodia, the co-founder of Mad(e) In Mumbai. Also Read: Pune Ups Its Swachh Quotient, To Introduce 12 E-Toilets For Women In The City “In a city like Mumbai, where we spend so much time outside our homes, why not think of toilets as refresher rooms? What if you could use a public toilet to wash your face, or even change? Such questions flooded my mind, and I wanted to get an answer for these” she added. The highway toilet concept made by Made(e) In Mumbai architects “We travel long distances to work and back but there is no infrastructure available to absorb our requirements. For instance, on a highway, you don’t want to only use the toilet, you might want to freshen up and change, or charge your phone, yet the toilets never address these needs,” she elaborates. Also Read: On World Menstrual Hygiene Day, Maharashtra Announces 400 Toilets Equipped With Sanitary Napkin Facilities On Highways Based on these observations, the firm then designed a holistic framework through which architecture of public toilets could be integrated with its community and environment where these are located. The framework, designed for the agencies (government organisations, NGOs) involved in the construction of the public toilets, sets up a pool of parameters such as sanitation technology, recycling systems, construction method, affordability, maintenance model, operational cost, maintenance cost, delivery model etc. We looked at using materials – from lightweight to tensile structures, hybrid variations of steel and wood and wattle (lightweight construction material made by weaving thin branches) based on the typography of the public toilet site. The reinforced cement concrete need not be the only solution, Mayuri Sisodia added. Also Read: This Swachh Warrior From Pune Builds Portable Thermocol Toilets In Just Two Hours As part of this framework, the firm then developed ten types of socially sustainable public toilets for the cities and villages, including for bus stops, parks, railway stations, anganwadis, and highways. Model of a public toilet at railway station, where the toilet is tucked under staircases In a railway station, for instance, quite often the toilets are on the platform. We wondered if these could be tucked under staircases, with a bit of structural tweaking, so that they don’t take up space. Likewise, we suggested that toilets in parks are kept to the periphery where the connection with the street or city is there to ensure safety and people on the move can also utilise the facility, she further added. Also Read: Mumbai Gets Its First All-Women Toilet And Sanitation Facility. Courtesy Former Norwegian Prison Inmates For the pavement, the firm recommends toilets a level beneath the road surface. The model is inspired by public facilities in London, where flights of stairs seamlessly descend to a level below, leading to toilets. And for the slum, the public toilet facility should involve an amphitheatre like set-up with toilets at the basement. When asked about solution to maintenance of public toilets, which often mar the best of intentions, Mayuri Sisodia answered: Apart from community participation, self-cleaning and mass-flushing technologies can go a long way in the upkeep. Also Read: In A First, Smart Toilets With Swanky Cafes And ATM Services Make Their Debut In Hyderabad Practical implementation of this project In 2015, the firm participated in a competition to design public toilets, organised by Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai under its Slum Sanitation Programme. After seeing their competition entries, Pratha Samajik Sanstha, an NGO that works in sustainable sanitation, commissioned the architects to build three model toilets along the Eastern Express Highway under the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan campaign. Based on their work, the firm in 2017 was selected as one of the top 20 Social Innovators for 2016 by the Ministry of External Affair and Niti Aayog. Also Read: Over 400 Public Toilets In Hyderabad To Become Accessible For Persons With Disability Recently, the Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje saw an exhibition of our work at Jawahar Kala Kendra in Jaipur. She understood our work and also invited us to design modern, public toilets in the state. After several rounds of meeting, surveys and discussions on revenue models and maintenance strategies, we were commissioned to construct five types of toilets – pavement, highway, bus stop, urban plaza and park – across seven cities – Jaipur, Udaipur, Bharatpur, Jodhpur, Kota, Bikaner and Ajmer, she said. Presently, Rajasthan has managed to construct 15,850 community and public toilets in the state post the launch of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan in 2014. Through their model toilets which are designed based on the site and requirements (what you need in Leh is not what you need in Rajasthan), the firm hopes to transform the public toilets not just in Rajasthan but across the country.

The opening came weeks after he stepped down as Dean of the Hartford Art School at the University of Hartford after nearly 10 years. "They're not connected at all. I had this show set up before I realized I was going to step down," Boothe says in an interview. But in selecting the work for the show "Power Boothe: Out of Order," he went back to large abstract pieces he had painted in the 1970s, 80s and 90s. They all work together well, as they are all the same size: large 6-by-6 foot square canvases, each working out its own patterns, color rhythms, variations and layers of washes and paint, although each has a different approach and color palette. Hung together in a single room, the Davis gallery, they seem in conversation with one another, from over the decades, the intensities of the various patterns fairly buzzing, with an overall affect of the abstracts not unlike a room of brooding Rothkos. They are all a result of an exacting process, layers of paint or marks on canvas, made over finite time. Often he'd work on a canvas as the late afternoon approached and work all night, ending up at dawn with a finished work that couldn't be foreseen when he began. The process had changed and the palette had shifted so that something unexpected would come from the process. So rather than referring to something that's on the blink, the title "Out of Order" refers to something emerging from out of the order of the process he began. "It's nice to see this work together," Boothe said as he prepared the gallery earlier this week, between snowstorms. One piece came from a collector in New York. The museum recently had purchased another. Four others he brought in from his studio in Harwinton via horse trailer. He thought at first to take the show from holdings by some of the many prestigious museums that have them, including the Met, Guggenheim, Whitney, Museum of Modern Art and Stanford University Art Museum. But he realized how expensive the shipping and insurance would be for the New Britain museum. "I realized I could pull this show from work I actually still have," he says. "In many cases, I kept only one piece from a whole body of work that I sold. It paid off. Now I have one painting from each group of paintings to show." And while each is different in its way, each abstract work shows the results of process, the human hand, variations and the possibility of unexpected results. "Some of this work I haven't seen in decades," he says. "This gives me a chance to look at what I was doing and helps show where I was going." Boothe was born in Texas and grew up in the San Francisco Bay area. After earning a degree in Colorado, he became a fellow at the Whitney Museum Independent Study Program in the late 60s, at a time with the fiery, personal angst of abstract expressionism in the city was making way for more studied abstractions and cerebral works, akin to the work in minimalist music by his contemporaries Philip Glass and Terry Reilly. Boothe got attention not only for his paintings, but for his set designs for theater, dance and video. His set designs for Cyndi Lauper's breakthrough "Girls Just Want to Have Fun Video" were populated with his painting students from the School of Visual Arts. A lecturer and educator at Princeton in the late '80s to mid- 90s, he had stints at the Maryland Institute College of Art and Ohio University's school of art before coming to the University of Hartford in 2001 to become dean of the Hartford Art School. In his tenure, he initiated a capital campaign that resulted in an increase in endowments for scholarships and programs from $7 million to $10 million, with an additional $4 million to build the Renee Samuels Center for art and technology classes. Two MFA programs in illustration and photography also were added in his time. But he also presided over controversies at the university art gallery and the downsizing of its curatorial staff due to funding. "There are always bumps in the road," Boothe says, "but that's the nature of the job." Under Boothe, University of Hartford President Walter Harrison said, "the school has thrived and grown both artistically and physically. The Hartford Art School and the university are better because of his enlightened leadership." His decision to step down, which came in October while on sabbatical, also came at a time of crossroads for the university, which was welcoming a new provost, new board chairman and new development director. "I think 10 years — or 9 1/2 years — is a good time, if there's ever a good time. Either I should commit to the next five or 10 years, and connect with the new people, or I should move on," Boothe says. "We don't own these jobs. We're just stewards of the institution. "Now," he says, "I'm thrilled to see what happens next." He'll continue to teach at the school, but he adds, "I hope to get back to studio, and maybe write about my experiences. I've lived through a very interesting time at the Hartford Art School. I so appreciate my time there." He'll continue to live on the small horse farm in Harwinton with his wife Lynne Steincamp, a former costume designer for dance and theatre, and he may build a bigger art studio there. Boothe, who has been asked to serve on many local panel discussions on the arts and serve as juror of many art shows, says there's a vibrant arts scene in Hartford, especially at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, which he says is "absolutely on track to expand its audience." But he remains puzzled why the city can't support a gallery district, even a small one. Still, he's anxious to devote more time to his painting. His more recent work is smaller in size, and not all of it is square. Up to now, he could only work a few weeks in the summer and some weekends in the print shop. "I always took very seriously the obligation you have as the leader of any institution like the Hartford Arts School," he says. "When people are giving their lives to that school, you've got to be competent and fully engaged in the picture. I loved it." As for his unusual name — Power was the middle name of his grandfather, and was a common Irish name; Boothe is Welsh — he is sometimes confused with the actor with a similar name, Powers Boothe. "I was driving late one night on Route 7 and a policeman stopped me for speeding," Boothe says. "When I gave him my license, he looked at me and said, 'Well, we don't like speeding around here. But I really enjoyed your last film.'" He let him go with a warning. "POWER BOOTHE: OUT OF ORDER" continues at the New Britain Museum of Art, 56 Lexington St., New Britain, through April 10.

On the tower dominates a golden copy of the crown of St. Stephen (Hungarian king ) of 300 Kg to 85 m of height and remembers the 19 coronations, celebrated in the Cathedral between 1563 and 1830. In the years 1732 - 34 archbishop Emmerich von Esterhazy made to connect the left nave with the baroque Chapel and consecrated to St Johnh Elemosynarius. It moreover made to erect the greater altar to Austrian sculptor G.R. Donner. In the left nave is found the statue in lead of S. Martin (the work of Donner), that it is represented on a horse to whose feet a beggar asks aid. In the right nave a plate it remembers that Ludwig van Beethoven on 13 November 1835 directed here Missa sollemnis op. 123. The inner ones of the palace are use you today as it at the same time knows them of representation of the mayor of Bratislava and as it knows them of exposure. Here an only series of six English tapestries of the 17th century is found also, that they represent the mitologic history of the tragic love between Hero and Leander. It is a palace in baroque style. Today it is the residence of the president of the Slovak Republic. The palace was made to build up from conte the Anton Grassalkovich after 1760, according to the plan of the constructor A. Mayerhorfer, and used like its summery residence. The Grassalkovich palace with its rich ones knows them and with its garden in French style it is one of the beautifulst palaces in Bratislava. Questo edificio neorinascimentale fu costruito nel 1886 secondo i progetti dei maestri viennesi F. Fellner e H. Helmer, in sostituzione del più vecchio edificio teatrale. Fino ad ora è stato riservato per l'opera, per il teatro e per il balletto. Davanti al teatro si trova una delle più antiche fontane della città, la fontana di Ganymede, opera di Viktor Tilgner del 1888. Jewel of the rococò architecture from the 1770. Today it is the center of the Bratislava Civic Gallery, with one section dedicated to the painting and the sculpture from the 17th to the 19th century, until arriving to the contemporary Slovak art. The church, with to the convent, was made to construct by the Cardinal Imrich Esterhazy in 1739-43, and consecrated the only been born saint to Bratislava, saint Elizabeth of Hungary. The church has been constructed like copy of the church of St. Peter in Vienna, in 1717-43. It frescoes on the cupola in the presbytery are work of A. Galli Bibiena, Italian baroque's painter. The inner ones with fresco to it in the churches of Holly Trinity and of St. Elizabeth represent the apex of the baroque in Centeral Europe. This four-storey rococo house was built in the 1760s to fill a wedge-shaped area between two converging streets. It has an extremely narrow front, one room and a staircase wide, and is regarded as one of the most attractive houses in Bratislava. It got its name from the statue of Christ ("the Good Shepherd") inset into the corner of the building. Today it houses a Clock Museum with a unique exhibition of sixty historical clocks. The former summery residence of the archbishop Hungarian of Esztergom, the palace has been reconstructed second the plans of F.A. Hillebrandt in 1761-65 on the ruins of a rinascimentale castle of XVII the century. Today the palace is the residence of Slovak government. The gothic church with a nave and two side aisles and with one neogothic tower. This church, is the most ancient of the city, was constructed between 1280 and 1297. To the inside are found the beautiful Chapel of St. John and the reliquia of the St. Reparato from Nola. St Catherine’s Chapel was built at the request of Cistercian monk František of Colomba in 1311, on what is now Michalská Street. The chapel belonged to the Cistercian Order until the beginning of the 16th century, when it passed to the Capuchins. The interior is original Gothic and the façade is in the Classicist style. The main altar incorporates a picture of St Catherine and statues of St Francis and St Anne, while a side altar is dedicated to the Virgin Mary. This large late-Renaissance church was built by Pressburg's German protestant community in 1636-1638 but confiscated from them in 1672 and given to the Jesuits the following year. The interior includes a beautiful rococo pulpit by Ľudovít Gode, a pupil of sculptor Georg Rafael Donner, and altar paintings by Franz Xaver Palko. MOZART HOUSE (Palffy Palace) In this house, in 1762, W. A. Mozart as a 6 years old gave one of its first concerts. Church in Art Nouveau constructed in 1913 e 1919, is one of the young and beautiful churches in Bratislava. Exterior facade are is decorated with blue majolica tiles and together with the blue glazed tiles on the roof were the inspiration for the churche's name the Blue Church.

I gave it a go out of curiosity once or twice and told my Husband it was impossible…. Actually it was more of a very dramatic soap opera episode with me slightly hysterically announcing that I was quitting photography because I couldn’t do it and selling all my gear to pay for the kids to go to college because I would never find anything I’m good at because I suck at everything and I may aswell pack a case and live alone on a desert island. My daughter (5 at the time) caught the tail end of it all and said “Yes you CAN do it Mummy, you just need to stop being silly” while my Husband poured me more wine and slowly prised my camera (that I may or may not have been hugging) out of my arms. Ok it wasn’t THAT bad but you get the idea. So I did stop being silly after a short while (cough cough about a year ) and I realised that newborn babies didn’t have to be photographed just one way. So without sounding too cliché and Frank Sinatra-ey…. I did it my way. Simple, real and natural. No fuss, no props, no poses. Just baby and you. Your family Newborn Photoshoot Leigh-On-Sea EssexNewborn Photoshoot Leigh-On-Sea Essex One of the good thing about these sessions is that they don’t need to be done within the usual 14 day time frame. That’s because I don’t need your baby to be sleepy. Great if they are, and great if they aren’t. I’m a sucker for those wide awake or yawning shots anyway! and bonus for you is that it gives you a bit more time to settle into a routine, get the army of visitors out the way and start feeling a bit more “you” Newborn Photoshoot Leigh-On-Sea Essex Newborn Photoshoot Leigh-On-Sea Essex Another result is because your baby can stay awake I don’t need to spend time trying to get them asleep by singing lullaby’s (my goodness you don’t know how lucky you are to miss that one!)

When you’re not having to sit and smile at me, you will feel more relaxed and natural and you will do little things without realising.

Its these inbetween moments that I love and strive for, and these are the images that make your gallery just beautiful and unique to you.

Don't be mislead by that. Don Argott's ("Rock School") compelling film about the transfer of The Barnes Collection of art from its home in Merion, Pa., to The Philadelphia Museum of Art presents insights aplenty into animal behavior and documents historical events just as do "Ants: Nature's Secret Power," "Mt St. Helens: Back from the Dead" and "Into the Deep: America, Whaling & the World." Bottom line, however " and in this case, the figure on that bottom line is about $25 billion " it's more like "Macbeth" than any of those worthy TV documentaries. It features greed and power struggles and the desire for (art) world dominance as its themes, and it has a cast of villains and heroes worthy of the Bard. It screens Friday-Sunday at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art. The story begins when Dr. Albert C. Barnes established The Barnes Foundation in 1922 to "promote the advancement of education and the appreciation of fine art." He had become very wealthy after developing a compound called Argyrol, used as a treatment for VD. He invested his wealth in a collection of art that eventually included 181 Renoirs, 69 Cézannes and 59 Matisses. That's the "art" of the film's title. Before his death in 1951, Barnes created what he seems to have thought was an ironclad will, dictating that his collection forevermore be housed in the beautiful setting he created for it in its Philly suburb. He bequeathed control of it to Lincoln University, a small African-American college because, according to the film, he scorned the more obvious place for it, The Philadelphia Museum of Art; the elitist art establishment of Philadelphia; and, above all, the Annenberg family (owners of The Philadelphia Enquirer) and its powerful control of the city's art. One of the reasons for what seems to be his bone-deep despising of all the above was the conservative museum's and newspaper's early dismissal of his collection as full of artists not worthy of the walls inside the imposing neoclassical Greek building made famous by Rocky Balboa's run to the top of its 72 steps. Despite his legal efforts, however, the powers that be have managed to effect what Barnes explicitly said he did not want to happen: the movement of the collection from Merion to Philadelphia and its control by the major museum. That's the "steal" of the film's title. The story of what happened and why is fascinating from the beginning to now, when construction on the collection's new home in Philly is under way. Poor stewardship, greedy people, a suburban neighborhood overwhelmed and the consuming desire of the art establishment to control what it now sees, of course, as one of the world's most desirable collections of paintings, sculptures and more are the stuff of this story. That's the "art" of the "steal" and of this superb film. "Kathryn Jenson White Add a comment

For 20 years, Lance Eccles was a member of the Reluctant Consort, a group based in Sydney, Australia. Most of his compositions have been written for this consort or for meetings of the Sydney Society of Recorder Players. Eccles is retired from his position as a senior lecturer in Chinese at Macquarie University. His current web site states that he is an "honorary senior research fellow in the Department of Ancient History at Macquaie University in Sydney, Australia"; see www.ocs.mq.edu.au/~leccles. There are generalities that apply to many of the pieces reviewed here. The reader will note that all of the pieces have colorful programmatic titles. Sometimes, the music des indeed match the literary ideas of the titles. In this reviewer's opinion, there are other cases (as specifically noted below) where the literary images of the title and the actual music do not seem to connect. It may be, in some cases, that some words in these titles simply have other connotations in Australian culture. In any case, a simple solution for this problem would be for the publications to include information regarding the literary ideas behind the titles and how these ideas connect to the music. Concerning his style, rhythms are straightforward and on the easier side, oftentimes using light syncopation. For the most part, the voices are very active, with a common exception being the bass lines. It is rare for the upper voices to hold any note longer than a halfnote, sometimes even in the final measures. Eccles has a remarkable ability to have voices moving every half beat for extended passages. He does a great job keeping his voices in lively contrary motion, but he also uses parallel motion to great effect. He likes abrupt endings. Some of his music uses lush Romantic harmonies; some is more contemporary and mildly dissonant or even sharply dissonant. Eccles is equally at home in all these harmonic idioms. To enjoy hearing and playing Eccles's music, you will need a taste for contemporary harmony. Having said that the rhythms are easy, I should also mention that most of his music is quite chromatic. If your groups are interested in playing these pieces, get out the chromatic scales; you will need to know all chromatic fingerings. Eccles likes to use phrase modulations to distantly-related keys. There are no avantgarde techniques in any of these pieces, beyond simple flutter-tonguing. If I had to rate them for difficulty on a scale of one to five, most would rate a three with exceptions noted below. Regarding prices listed, Orpheus Music will remove taxes from the total for non- Australian customers. Prices vary day to day. These pieces are listed with two purchase options: the published version (in hard copy with the well-known purple and orange covers) and the .pdf instantly-downloadable version from orpheusmusic.com.au. OMP183 Lance Eccles AVIARY. Aviary, another suite of three short pieces, opens up with "Dodoes." Think of a large Dodo bird as portrayed in cartoons - mindlessly wandering in no particular direction - and you will have an idea of this 40-measure trio. Loosely speaking, the piece is in ABA form, but it begins with a D minor chord and ends with the bass moving down an A Lydian scale. This is contemporary harmony, but not jarringly dissonant. The second piece, "Condors," has interactive alto and tenor parts, and again a tamer bass line. It is more tonal, moving from D minor to C Major, and back to D minor. It also is a good musical picture of the magnificent flight of condors. One interesting aspect is that, just when I think the music is going to fall into a sequential pattern, it never quite does - perhaps representing the unpredictability of the flight of a condor. The third piece, "Moas," suggests a flightless bird and is to be played in a "strutting" manner. This features lots of repeated notes, use of a descending whole-tone scale, and a series of minor chords that ascend by half-step. It starts and ends in D Major and frequently uses cross-relations, even in the last measure! Susan Groskreutz, American Recorder, January 2011.

As part of the essay, I interviewed Megan Newcome, Digital Strategy Director at Phillips Auction House in NYC - and found her responses so insightful that it'd be a shame not to post them here on my blog. 1. To what extend is it important for auction houses to respond quickly to technology trends? It's critically important for auction houses to embrace technology and understand the impact of what is, essentially, the digital transformation of the art world. Compared to other industries, like music and publishing, the art world was very slow to respond to technology trends because its economic model, premised on scarcity and objecthood, wasn’t drastically impacted by the Internet. But I think the biggest elephant in the room is digital art. It challenges the fundamental economic principles and rules of the art market. Traditional, commercial art world modes of exchange are now being challenged by the global networks - decentralized distribution, new forms of ownership, even new currencies. 2. Why do you think it was important for Phillips to host both issues of Paddles ON!? I think it was important for Phillips to host Paddles ON! because we understood that the auction would potentially be a groundbreaking moment for digital art - and that it would require a different approach than our other auctions. It was very collaborative - we partnered with Tumblr, Paddle8, Rhizome, OK Focus, and ArtsTech Meetup for the New York auction - and Dazed, Opening Times and Arcadia Missa in London. It literally took a village! We understood that the success of the auctions would depend a lot on engaging and galvanizing the digital art community. I like to describe it this way: Tumblr brought the digital art community, Phillips brought the ‘art world’ muscle, and Lindsay Howard brought the vision. It was important for us to have Lindsay on board who curated both of the auctions. She understood how to put together a collection of works that had both commercial appeal and were important because they were expressions of different digital practices - animated GIFs, websites, software, 3D prints, digital paintings, videos, and installations. It was also important for us to have an educational component - we produced a series of videos with artists discussing their practices; we staged a reading room in our London gallery where visitors could access a collection of printed and digital texts; and we hosted a series of panel discussions in New York and London focusing on what it means to create, sell and collect digital art in the 21st century. We also worked directly with artists and galleries who provided a lot of guidance in terms of pricing, handling and exhibiting the works. In both auctions, the proceeds went back to the artists. In New York, artists recieved 80% of the hammer price and the remaining 20% was donated to Rhizome. In London, artists recieved 100% of the hammer price and a portion of Phillips’s buyer’s premium was donated to Opening Times. 3. Does the fact that a 3D printed sculpture can be re-printed make it a less important collections piece? I think your question is at the heart of the larger discussion around how the ‘digital object’ is made, valued and collected. This paradox of the ‘digital object’ is very challenging to galleries, auction houses, collectors who have a traditonal view of ownership - how is it possible to sell something that is either impossible to ‘own’ or can be copied? But the fundamentals of ownership are changing. Global networks, open source, crowdfunding, the economy of attention, are creating alternative forms of value that rival one-to-one ownership. New technologies, platforms, and artists themselves are exploring creative ways to monetize digital art. 4. How do audiences respond differently to digital design / does digital work attract a different audience? Historically, digital art was very niche - you had to be a computer geek or hacker to ‘get it’. Now, the world is increasingly engaged with technology. Audiences are more likely to share screen-based art and cultural experiences than IRL experiences. And this is an important benefit that digital art has over traditional art - it connects artists directly to an audience. It puts more power in the hands of artists and less power for institutions and galleries. When people talk about ‘democratizing the art world’, I think that is what what it means. 5. What are your thoughts towards the value of 3D printed pieces of contemporary sculpture? One of my favorite recent quotes is Carter Cleveland (founder of Artsy) who says, “The art of tomorrow is the technology of today.” Artists are using the tools that are ‘contemporary’ to them - 3D printers are a perfect example. I think 3D printed sculpture, in many ways, is the most elegant manifestion of the ‘digital object’ - something a traditonal collector could understand both as a physical object and a digital object. We sold a 3D sculpture by Sophie Kahn in our London Paddles ON! auction - and it, by far, recieved the most inquiries from collectors visiting the gallery. Monday, 17 August 2015 A look into Biomimicry My next piece for Disruptive Magazine is now live. I explored Biomimicry in the context of 3D printing - it was certainly one of the most enjoyable articles to research that I've been working on recently. Featured is Nervous System, Lee Cronin and Janine Benyus. Their work is all really different, but through reading the piece you'll see how beautifully their practice combines via Biomimicry as a process for 3D printing. I'm working a number of articles at the moment for a varied colection of print and online publications. Let me know if you're interested in commissioning me for something else as well! Wednesday, 12 August 2015 Texas Tripping I'm currently in Austin Texas, having been invited to attend and cover an announcement from Stratasys Direct Manufacturing - a service bureau for 3D printing in North America. Looking around the factory facility was really cool, and I also met and interview some really interesting (and lovely) people. I even got to hold the first ever 3D printed (and fired) metal gun, which was kinda cool. Catch up with the written piece from the event on Disruptive. Liberator chic Despite the number of years since the notorious 3D printed gun altered the reputation of additive manufacturing, its disruption resounds. Back in 2013, the project made headlines through the release of a 3D printed prototype ‘Liberator’ gun (and open source file) – and today, its influence continues to be translated across discipline and industry. ‘Liberator Rounds’ is a sculptural collection and presentation of the open source STL from Cody Wilson, and stands as a ceiling mounted chandelier of 3D printed guns by artist Addie Wagenknecht. With a history of embracing the challenges that contemporary, open source culture offers, Wagenknect’s understanding of use and objecthood in ‘Liberator Rounds’ only develops this discourse further. The implications of an open-access technology (like additive manufacturing) already deliver endless industry benefits, but the potential for creative innovation and cultural expression are evident in Wagenknect’s art – almost as an extension of the internet’s power to do the same. The series is about ubiquitous objects in our environment and a shift in contemporary context, the playful and subversive quality of surveillance and data culture in our everyday environments,” says Wagenknecht. “The work plays with the underlying notion of how culture is produced and distributed—how they have been affected by our disenchantment and simultaneous obsession [with] digital culture.” (via the Creators Project) Although numerous downloads and 3D prints of The Liberator have been made across the world, ‘Liberator Rounds’ is one of the most interesting visual statements of that now pivotal moment in the public history of additive manufacturing. We look forward to seeing what comes next. Article written for Disruptive Thursday, 9 July 2015 Chanel A/W 2015-16: Couture Super excited to have learnt a little bit more about the 3D printed elements which played such a key part in Chanel's most recent Couture offering a few days ago. Aside from the amazing spectacle which was the Casino-themed event, I was actually quite shocked to see how the 3D printed SLS latice's integrated into the garments were so important to the materiality of the collection. When I saw the twitter hashtags and headlines, I assumed that the 3D printed parts of the show would be things like buttons or a hair accessory. However, I'm extremely impressed by the novel way in which the Chanel Coutouriers have used the tech to develop the Fashion House's traditional aesthetic. Here's the Lagerfeld quote: “The idea is to take the most iconic jacket of the 20th century and make a 21st century version, which technically was unimaginable in the period when it was born,” Lagerfeld told AFP after the show. “The vest is one piece, there is no sewing, it is moulded. “What keeps couture alive, is to move with the times. If it stays like sleeping beauty in the woods in an ivory tower, you can forget it. The women who buy couture today are not the bourgeoises of the past, they are young, modern women.” It seems as though the Creative Director at French Couture House Maison Lesage, Hubert Barrere, has had a lot to do with the development of the 3D printing, which layers sequin fabric beneath the 3D printed nylon latice before being finished by a crystal stud. A video posted by CHANEL (@chanelofficial) on Take a look at the video below from Vidéo France Télévisions to see more (in French). In the meantime, I'm looking forard to see the fashion discourse in this area develop, as houses other than Iris Van Herpen integrate this tech into their work. And I'm also looking forward to learning which (assumingly) Paris-based 3D printing company suppled and supported Chanel with the prints! Tweet me if you know... P.S. I wrote an online article following this blog post for Disruptive Magazine, which you should take a look at: http://disruptivemagazine.com/blog/chanels-couture-progression-3d-printing-materiality/ Tuesday, 23 June 2015 Disruptive Magazine - print issue 2 For my second Disruptive Mag piece, I focused on the ever-devloping discipline of Digital Humanities, and how technology has always faciliated the creation of art through new explorations of concept. It was a bit of a tricky one, but I'm really pleased with the final piece - especially as I'm fascinated by the area of research. Let me know if you'd like more info - and in the meantime, I'm researching and pitching to more print magazines, papers and zines for specialised content relating to 3D printing (so get in touch). Monday, 22 June 2015 How Tech Trends Take off Crafting the Customer Experience through Technology The NET-A-PORTER-GROUP X London Technology Week Regardless of the idea, there’s a core aspect that runs the length of every technology, product and service available: customer experience. Initially hidden – and when it’s good, it’s left un-noticed – customer experience is an essential part of every company’s mission in offering a solution. It’s simple: if no one likes using your product, then no one will pay for it - no matter how great the apparent demand may be. Despite my seemingly knowledgeable and experienced opening to this post, these ideas in fact only occurred to me a few days ago at a London Technology Week event. Admittedly, my initial draw to attend was a result of the event’s host and location within The Village at Westfield. And of course, The NET-A-PORTER Group’s London HQ was everything I had hoped for: sophisticated, monochromatic, functional and beautifully inspiring – and on top of all that, it smelt like Aesop Skincare Products everywhere. The evening consisted of Prosecco, Walkers Sensation crisps, canapés and a very well chosen pre-networking panel discussion: • Sarah Watson, VP Social Commerce, NET-A-PORTER.COM • Jonathan Earle, Head of Strategy, Planning, Innovation and Customer Experience, O2 UK • Ophelia Brown, Index Ventures (replaced by someone I can’t remember the name of) Chaired by Alex Wood, Editor-in-Chief of a new techy publication that I’d never heard of (called The Memo), it was clear that there had been plenty of preparation for the conversation to come (always appreciated). The eventbrite preface to the event read as thus: “Technology has allowed forward-thinking companies to radically disrupt industries, from luxury fashion, to entertainment and communications. But technology's real power lies in its ability to create the perfect customer experience. Hear from three pioneering companies and a technology dealmaker, as they discuss how technology is being deployed to refine every customer touch-point.” In reality, the discussion explored the different approaches to customer experience (using technology) via each company representative in attendance – and it was fascinating. Across industry, it’s openly understood that technology has disrupted the paradigms and norms by which we all work. But what struck me about the evening’s panel was the level at which companies are guided by the technological habits of their users. As an example, Sarah Watson, VP Social Commerce at NET-A-PORTER, revealed that 40% of the company’s sales happen via mobile devices. That profitable jump from E-commerce (online shopping) to M-commerce (mobile shopping) has been rapid – and doubtlessly played a decisive part in Sarah’s role managing ‘The Net Set’. This relatively new retail platform form NET-A-PORTER illustrates the next move for the company: a move from M-commerce to ‘S-commerce’ (social commerce). The Net Set gives users the chance to follow the style of people they admire and aspire to – and there’s no doubt that instagram culture has almost single-handedly prompted this development of buyer’s habits. Since the majority of those who shop with NET-A-PORTER are apple technology (iPhone) users, it made sense for Sarah and her team to utilise and develop more ways for people to spend money with the company via this medium – and on a critically social level. My interest in 3D printing within the fashion industry found a platform during the Q&A part of the evening, and in sync with the previous discussion, helped me to understand the challenges that this technology is still facing. Just like any other tech, 3D printing cannot be widely used until it is widely adopted. When I asked Sarah about how NET-A-PORTER predicts and prepares for new technology, her answer very much overlooked the potential of 3D printing – simply because until her customers are interested in it, then neither is she. I felt as though my question would be better suited to a CTO – but nevertheless, the attitude of the industry itself was very much evident in her reply. What this event really spurred me to consider is the extremely essential concern of customer experience when using technology (like 3D printing) to (one day) engage with actual physical products. The quality control needed for the future of 3D printed garments is beyond anything that I can currently imagine - especially since home 3D printing at present is fraught with print failures even for the most simple of objects. Apart from a small mention of 3D scanning to homogenize data for cross-brand sizing solutions, my field of industry was not mentioned any further. Whilst 3D printing everyday clothing feels further away than ever, I’m convinced that in a few years, some serious progress in materials will be made, which might just excite people enough for large (retail) industry players to take notice.

An expert orchestrator, he plied that trade in a variety of commercial settings: big bands, radio, television, and film. (A partnership with film composer Alex North was especially symbiotic, Brant orchestrating North’s scores to everything from “Cleopatra” to “Good Morning, Vietnam.”) At the same time, in his own music, Brant pursued a distinct avant-garde path. Precociousness (Aaron Copland tipped the teenage Brant as a composer to watch) and longevity (he died in 2008) made Brant the last great exemplar of ultramodernism, a branch of freewheeling experimentalism that had its heyday in the 1920s and ’30s. (Charles Ives, spiritual godfather to many of the ultramodernists, was an important mentor; Brant later engineered a dazzling, labor-of-love orchestration of Ives’s “Concord” Sonata.) Around 1950, Brant became fascinated by spatial music, multiple ensembles arranged in different places around the concert hall. The concept appealed both to Brant’s musical problem-solving talent and his pervasive fondness for cheerful absurdity. (1982’s “Meteor Farm,” one of Brant’s biggest big tops, includes an orchestra, multiple choruses, a brass consort, a jazz band, and West African, Javanese, and Indian ensembles.) Brant used the old idea — spatial layouts were also the fashion in the churches of 16th-century Venice — to refine the ultramodernists’ atom-smashing dissonances into quantum entanglements, intervals and timbres mingling at a distance. Though Brant is highly regarded in the new-music community — his spatial opus “Ice Fields” won the 2002 Pulitzer Prize, 53 years after Virgil Thomson’s film score for “Louisiana Story,” which Brant orchestrated, earned the same award — chances to experience his landscapes were always rare. (Recordings hardly do justice to its 360-degree full-immersion.) In 1983, a springtime residency led Boston Mayor Kevin White to proclaim “Henry Brant Week”; but, apart from an Oct. 28 performance of Brant’s early “Angels and Devils” by the NEC Contemporary Ensemble, Brant’s centenary has, as yet, passed unnoticed here. Perhaps his music is considered a hard sell; but, then again, by its very nature, it invariably fills the hall.

Figure 12.2-1: Focus concepts and refinements As illustrated by Figure 12.2-1, an expressionconsists of one or more conceptIds plus optional refinements. The refinementsmay include any number of attributes. Attributesare expressed as name-value pairs and may apply independently or as part of a group. The name part of the attribute value pair is a conceptId that refers to a conceptthat names the characteristic that is refined by this attribute. The value part of the attribute value pair is an expression. In simple cases, this is just a conceptId referring to a conceptthat represents the appropriate value for this attribute. However, it may also be a nested expressionas shown in . Table 12.2-1 illustrates the potential for nesting of expressions and the naming conventions applied in this guide to distinguish different parts of an expressionat different levels. The top level of an expression is referred to as the "focus expression". It consists of a set of one or more focus concepts and a refinement. The values of the attributes in the focus concept refinementare a "nested expression" that consist of one or more "value concepts" optionally refined by a nested refinement. Expressionsmay be nested recursively so there may be further levels of "nested expressions" with "nested refinement". If it is necessary to distinguish the level of nesting, the following naming convention is applied. Table 12.2-1: Expression Nesting Level number level 0expression level 1expression Anexpressionnested inside a level ( N - 1)expression Figure 12.2-2: Illustration of the names used to refer to parts of a nested expression The general pattern shown in Figure 12.2-2 applies to all expressionswhether or not they include context information. Figure 12.2-3 illustrates the specific features of an expressionthat includes a representation of context. The "focus expression" of a context containing expressionis the context wrapper and may include a "context refinement" consisting of a set of context attributes: In a normalized context expression, all context attributes are grouped. Each group in a normalized context wrappercontains a complete set of four context attributes [1 . The value of the 246090004 \|associated finding\|or 363589002 \|associated procedure\|is a "nested expression" which is referred to as the "clinical kernel". During some stages of processing, the "clinical kernel" is separated from the "nested expression". When separated from its context the "clinical kernel" is the "focus expression" of a context-free expression.

The series was first inspired by a set of 8x10 black and white prints that Chavarría discovered in an antique shop in San Francisco one afternoon: in the photographs, groups of men in suits shake hands, smiling. “I was instantly blown away by the images,” Chavarría says. “There was just something about them that I found so compelling: they looked perfect and fake at the same time. The people in the photographs looked so similar to each other, almost like clones…everything had an artificial quality to it.” From the series “Façade” © Carlos Chavarría Chavarría picks up on this artificiality in “Facade.” Certain elements within his photographs—shiny black leather dress shoes; the almost impossibly smooth surface of a building, shades of grey alternating with deep, inky-blue windows—have a distinctly synthetic air. The patterns are both tranquil in their regularity and unsettling in their perfection. They look like images from a movie set, constructed for this moment and soon to be destroyed. Interspersed among these strangely absorbing architectural photographs are soft-focus images of businessmen on the street. Too many of these and the series would lose some of its interest, but the occasional blurred-out figure adds a degree of impersonality that gels with the overall dispassion that dominates these spaces. None of the images in the series show a fully recognizable face—slices of light offer glimpses of vices and private interludes, but the viewer has no other details to ground these humanizing moments. Instead, the people in Chavarría’s images lump together into a pile: suit-wearing figures in a vast, concrete landscape. From the series “Façade” © Carlos Chavarría Chavarría utilizes these motifs intentionally. “Taking the skyscraper and the ‘man in a suit’ as symbols,” his series presents a visual study of the business world from the perspective of an outsider, delving into the anonymity of the city and the camera’s ability to reveal the strange impersonality of these numbing, built environments. —Coralie Kraft Although Chavarría did not make the comparison himself, his silhouetted forms bear a striking resemblance to Paul Strand’s famous depiction of Wall Street, from 1915.

And 2019 was definitely a big year of change. With each new year, comes new changes, and we’re greatly anticipating next year’s big design changes. But until then, we want to reminisce and talk about the best 8 logo redesigns in 2019. There were some pretty big and iconic changes that happened this year, and we’re going to go over all of them. Logo redesign is a common practice because no matter how good your logo looked when you created it, in most cases, it’ll become dated. With new trends coming around every season, and with new things being implemented into a business, it’s hard for a logo to stay relevant and fresh. So today, we’ll be going over the top 8 logo redesigns of 2019. Let’s get into it. Warner Bro’s Warner Bro’s logo redesign was a shocker for all of us. After a century of having the same iconic logo, they decided it was time to make the logo a little more versatile. With a new shade of blue, a little reshaping of the shield, and a new flat design, I can say that Warner Bro’s was definitely my favorite logo redesign of 2019. What do you all think of the new design? Let us know in the comment section below what your first impressions were. Another recent and iconic logo redesign was from Volkswagen. Volkswagen, being internationally renowned for its cars, definitely doesn’t need much of an introduction from us. Volkswagen stated the following in their press release regarding the new logo. “The new brand design marks the start of the new era for Volkswagen,” says Jürgen Stackmann, Member of the Brand Board of Management responsible for Sales, Marketing and After-Sales. “By formulating new content and with new products, the brand is undergoing a fundamental transformation towards a future with a neutral emission balance for everyone. Now is the right time to make the new attitude of our brand visible to the outside world.” We’re happy with the steps that VW is taking to help the environment. And we also like the new flat and versatile design of the logo. A new era, a new logo. When we heard that Firefox’s new logo was accidentally leaked via Twitter over the summer, we were actually thrilled. With every new redesign Firefox goes through, it continues to get sleeker and sleeker. The fox obviously had some grooming over the summer, as its coat is much smoother now. The gradient is very very similar to the old one, and now we can actually see the sly fox’s face. Overall, we’re very pleased with the facelift that Mozilla underwent, and we’re looking forward to what they’ll put out next. Grey Goose Oh Grey Goose, you beautiful bottle of fun and joy. Grey Goose also went through quite a surprising redesign this summer. They left all their former, intricate designs behind and embraced minimalism in their design. But not only did they embrace minimalism in their graphic design, but also in their wording. And as we said in a previous article all about their redesign, this still rings true. “From a marketing perspective, the shorter tagline that spells just ‘Vodka’ now instead of ‘World’s best tasting Vodka’ makes a lot of sense. Most people shop for alcohol based on the label. In recent years, more and more consumers will go for a more minimal tag.” Minimalism is definitely a trend we’ve been seeing all throughout 2019. Let’s see what we have up next. Discovery Channel Next up, it’s time to “discover” another logo redesign. See what I did there? I need to stop. Anywho, Discovery came up with a new logo design. They ditched the 3D world model and went for a flat design. They also shortened it by removing the stand alone D and just including the logo in the actual written word. If I’m completely honest, I think I like the previous logo design better. What do you guys think? Alright, let’s cut them some “slack” with the new logo design. I’m kidding you guys, I really like the new look of their logo. I really need to quit on these puns. We all know and love Slack and loved the liveliness of their logo. I genuinely can say that I vouch for both logos! But let’s hear what Slack themselves have to say about it. “ So here we are. Our in-house design and brand team, together with Michael Bierut and the team from Pentagram, worked to create a new and more cohesive visual identity. And we’re starting, today, with the logo. It uses a simpler color palette and, we believe, is more refined, but still contains the spirit of the original. It’s an evolution, and one that can scale easily, and work better, in many more places. “ So there you have it! Whether you’re in dance, track, crossfit, or yoga, Reebok has the shoes for you. They also went through quite a big design change this year. The iconic Delta sign in their old logo has taken a back seat to the new design. The new design is actually just a return of their design from 1990, with some nice tweaks. Fox Entertainment And finally, we come to our final logo redesign. Some logo redesigns require an entire make-over, and others just need a little, teeny-tiny tweak. Fox Entertainment went for a tiny little tweak. The Entertainment text is the main change. They changed the font and they also made it quite bold. It definitely is more eye-catching now and looks a lot better. Sometimes all you need is the smallest adjustment to make a huge difference! And Finally… We hope you guys enjoyed our collection of logo redesigns. We are looking forward to a brand new year and a new start in 2020. Let us know what your favorite logo redesign of the year was! Happy holidays!

The exhibition invites visitors on a journey through Italy covering the post-World War II period to the most recent past, from 1970 to 2010. The project is an initiative of the Embassy of Italy in Riga. The story of the photographs in the exhibition begins in 1970, when John's father gives him his first camera Pentax, and after two years of training with the famous Italian photographer Ugo Mulas (1928-1973), the boy begins his journey in photography. The young photographer takes to the streets and captures everyday Italian life, architecture and landscapes. John R. Pepper's photographs are a testament to his deep respect for Italian culture and its values, highlighting human relationships – family, friendship and the joy of living. "Each one of us is the main actor in our own lives. We are all vulnerable. We are all heroic. We are human beings. That is where the miracle lies. Passion, strengths and weaknesses, joy, innocence, sadness, violence, tragedy and the many contradictions that make up a human being are what I think make men and women beautiful. So I try to get close and photograph their eyes – their eyes watching me watching them. It's as if they reveal their soul to me for a brief moment and I am allowed to capture a small part of it. By capturing that moment, I briefly get closer and understand more of their personality – and mine", comments John R. Pepper. “Contemporary photography serves as both a document and narration of modern Italy, capturing its essence. Through the lens of talented photographers such as Pepper, Italy's rich mosaic of culture, society, and daily life comes to life, offering a window into its ever-evolving narrative. That is why we wanted to bring Pepper’s exhibition to Riga: it is an invitation for Latvians to immerse in Italy and its culture” adds Alessandro Monti, Ambassador of Italy to Latvia. John R. Pepper, born in 1958 in Rome; educated in Art History, Princeton University, USA (1976); works professionally in the fields of photography, theatre and film directing; has organized solo exhibitions in Europe, America, United Arab Emirates, Russia, etc. Opening of the exhibition on 14 March at 17.00, Aula of the Art Academy of Latvia. The exhibition will be on view from March 15 to April 19, 2024 at the Aula of the Art Academy of Latvia, 13 Kalpaka Boulevard. Opening hours: from Monday to Friday from 10.00-18.00; break: from 14.30-15.00. Free admission. Curators of the exhibition: Tatiana Fokina and Inese Rozentāla. The exhibition is a project of the Embassy of Italy in Riga and the Art Academy of Latvia.

A photo can communicate thousands of words in just one set. It is through the combination of all these words that a memory is created. Photographs can be taken when you are having some great time in life and at the same time when you are in your sad moments. It helps you remember some events or moments and you enjoy the memories. They can be taken in parties, in different times in life, when you go for vacation or holiday in a place that you want to keep memories among many other occasions. When it comes to headshots, these are usually more official but this does not mean that you cannot have a headshot for casual reasons. Headshots are usually powerful tools of communicating and connecting to different career paths as well as people. You can use a headshot to advance your career through marketing your skills, business or reaching out to people for different reasons. For instance, if you want an elective post, a headshot will help the people who want to vote you, know you more. So often, you may be famous because of what you did previously to some people, and others may want to be associated with you yet they do not know you physically. With the use of a headshot, you can be able you reach out to so many people. This can be done through hardcopies or through soft copy headshots. This will depend on whom you want to reach out and where they are. This equally applies to celebrities, actors and other people who may want to advance their careers in different paths. When you are in business, you may need headshots of your employees mounted on the walls of the office. This is a great gesture of appreciating your employees. On the other hand if you do not have the headshots for all the employees, you can consider having one for your self as the boss and your immediate assist or board of directors. In business, you can as well consider having corporate photos for different events that happens in your business. These and many others are just examples of when and why you may need a photograph or a headshot. Nonetheless, it is not just having a photo or headshot that is important but rather having a quality one. When you have a quality photo or headshot, it will be able to speak volumes of words and it will be a good representation. Therefore, when you need a photograph or a headshot, you should be committed to searching for the best studio. It will be prudent to engage professionals. Apparently, there are so many photographers in the market that do not bother to go for training. They just assume photography is something that can be done by anybody which is very wrong. In order for you to be the best photographer, you will need to have some special skills and knowledge in order for you to be able to discharge your mandate in a perfect way.

In 2018, there were too many great exhibitions in Baltimore and Washington DC for our team to cover, but we pride ourselves on providing a devoted and credible source for art criticism in the region when many publications have cut back on arts coverage and experienced art writers. The year started off at a high point, and we take special satisfaction in the unveiling of Amy Sherald’s portrait of Michelle Obama, alongside Kehinde Wiley’s of President Barack Obama, at the National Portrait Gallery. We continue to marvel at the far reaching impact of this work, which has earned a significant place in art history, impacting the lives of countless individuals in expansive and meaningful ways. Our top ten list for the year comes nowhere near capturing all of the brilliant and ambitious projects manifested in the region, hence our additions of honorable mentions, but we feel good about the range, depth, and diversity represented. In 2018, women and artists of color continued to occupy more of a spotlight and we look forward to this momentum to continue into 2019 and beyond. We are proud to see local and regional artists showing in museums, not just galleries, and look forward to more opportunities to view the work of Baltimore and DC-based artists in an international context. 1. Odyssey: Jack Whitten Sculpture, 1963–2017 at the Baltimore Museum of Art Throughout his career, Jack Whitten was a consummate innovator who explored and refined new techniques to visualize what he called “symbolic abstractions.” Rather than subscribe to traditional narrative painting formulas, or the idea that a painting must illustrate a particular idea, Whitten focused on the materiality of the paint and the process of making the artwork to construct meaning. Although he graduated from Cooper Union in 1964 and taught painting there from 1974-95, he did not gain significant fame until near the end of his life. Whitten recently passed away, at the age of 78 in January 2018. – Angela N. Carroll http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/06/jack-whitten-space-time-mythology-and-history.html 2. Rachel Whiteread at the National Gallery of Art The exhibition considers a series of important moments and series within Whiteread’s career chronologically, beginning with the collection of works presented in her first solo exhibitions at the Carlisle Gallery in London in 1988 and the Chisendale Gallery in 1990 that made her famous in her home country, and ending with three collage-drawings from 2012 that point to the significance of drawing and collecting to her practice. Forming an additional rejection of the modes of ahistorical formalism and “pure process” discourse that have shaped modernism and its meanings for decades, Whiteread’s work does not just pose a threat to the patriarchal narratives of sculpture and modern art that live on and breathe comfortably within the art institution, but acknowledges the institutional and ideological barriers to those who are cast aside by institutions of all kinds. – Jordan Amirkhani http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/11/rachel-whiteread-at-the-nga-a-challenge-to-patriarchal-institutions.html 3. Roberto Lugo at The Walters Art Museum It was Lugo’s dedication to current social justice issues and urban identity, inspired by hip hop and graffiti in America that made him a perfect fit for the opening of The Walters Art Museum’s opening of 1 West Mount Vernon Place, formerly the Hackerman House, a space used historically to exhibit ceramics. The newly finished mansion, now open to the public, will exhibit selections from the Walter’s vast selection of ceramics, which are enlivened and challenged by the presence of Lugo’s vases, urns, and sculptural works inspired directly from the museum’s permanent collection. – Cara Ober http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/07/criticality-and-ceramics-at-the-walters.html 4. Meleko Mokgosi: Acts of Resistance at the BMA Meleko Mokgosi’s triumphant Baltimore Museum of Art exhibition Acts of Resistance closes this weekend. It’s not an exaggeration to say that Mokgosi, who hails from Botswana and now lives and works in New York, has quietly ascended as one of the greatest living painters. His epic works blend the European oil painting tradition with contemporary African imagery and the sensibilities of an installation artist. In this latest show, Mokgosi responds to the BMA’s permanent collection. Installed in the museum’s European wing, Acts of Resistance defiantly subverts and compliments the centuries of Western art history it follows. – Michael Anthony Farley http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/11/meleko-mokgosis-acts-of-resistance.html 5. Dawoud Bey: The Birmingham Project at the National Gallery of Art First shown in 2013, The Birmingham Project has since been mounted in a number of variously scaled permutations and venues across the country. Recently, the National Gallery acquired four of the diptychs, along with a related 11-minute video, and is now exhibiting them in a modest but moving two-room show (in the Gallery’s West Wing through March 24, 2019). Roughly life-sized in scale, the eight figures seem to gaze at us in a remarkable condensation of appraisal, reflection, and a simple bearing of witness to a tortured local history. “I wanted,” Bey has said, “to give tangible and palpable physical presence to the young people martyred that day.” The works certainly do that. But, exhibited in D.C. at this moment, and only a few years after a deadly attack on an African-American church in South Carolina, they inevitably do something else, as well. As Kara Fiedorek, who curated the show, noted, they also pose “the question of how much has or has not changed.” – Kerr Houston http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/09/the-past-presented-dawoud-bey-at-the-national-gallery-of-art.html 6. Still Happening in 2018: Joyce J. Scott at Goya Contemporary The work of MacArthur Genius Joyce J. Scott, whose 40+ year career has engaged benign crafting traditions to bring attention to the persistence of brutality against women, children, and men of color, is distinctly disturbing, offering stark depictions of violence which are haunting yet somehow beautiful. As the title of her latest exhibition suggests, violence against those who have historically been marginalized and disrespected, devalued and forgotten, bought and sold, and touched without consent continues. The violations Scott has tackled throughout her career are as contemporary as they are pandemic: depiction of colonization, sex trafficking, unjustified murders, kidnapping, and child abuse recur in this exhibition of new and timeless visceral works. – Angela N. Carroll http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/04/still-happening-in-2018-joyce-j-scott.html 7. Maren Hassinger: The Spirit of Things at the BMA Hassinger’s exhibition at the BMA, curated by Kristen Hileman, features many of the same works in the smaller A+P space and lays it out expansively, a luxurious retrospective that features performances, drawings, video, and the large sculptural installations made of the New York Times newspaper, rope, wire, and plastic bags that the artist has become widely known for. Hassinger cites Hileman’s interest, and the opportunities that were generated after the original A+P show, as the impetus for her recent projects. However, one can argue that Hassinger’s presence at the BMA also functions as validation for its recent claims of changes to curatorial and acquisition policies in the past year as well, including the controversial announcement of the deaccessioning of seven works by historically vetted White male artists in order to buy art by women and artists of color — including some based in Baltimore. – Cara Ober http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/10/the-relentless-efforts-of-maren-hassinger-result-in-an-overdue-retrospective.html 8. The Thing is Close: Jackie Milad and Cindy Cheng at School 33 Art Center The Thing is Close exhibits the pairing of prolific Baltimore-based artists Cindy Cheng and Jackie Milad. Cheng creates complex sculptural constructions and installations that draw reference from the carefully choreographed rooms of her parents’ house in Hong Kong. Jackie Milad’s works on paper present the complexities of identity-making for people of mixed-race and ethnic backgrounds. Her work constructs a new visual language—a mash-up of actual and invented symbols associated with her Egyptian and Honduran immigrant background and family history. This is a powerhouse show just bursting with color, texture, energy, and a certain feminine weirdness. There’s a sense of humor and a lithe beauty coiled up in both Milad’s and Cheng’s constructions, and also a sense of destructive natural forces. These sculptures and works on paper are flirtatious and ballsy; they dare you, just a little bit, to fall in love with them. When you move in for a closer look, they flip your expectations and poke you in the eye, but in the nicest way. – Cara Ober http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/09/fall-gallery-guide-ten-must-see-baltimore-contemporary-art-exhibits.html 9. Unseen: Titus Kaphar and Ken Gonzales-Day at the National Portrait Gallery Although it’s described as one exhibition with one title, Unseen functions more like two solo shows, since the work of the two artists are not placed in proximity, but installed in separate, side-by-side galleries. It’s impossible to view them at the same time, which is fine visually, but does not create an opportunity for much cross-pollination to occur. Theoretically, Kaphar and Gonzales-Day balance out a vital conversation about America’s underrepresented people — each through expertly designed means. However, Kaphar’s images immediately trigger emotions while Gonzales-Day’s require gradual and intellectual processing. Kaphar’s work is a forest fire, while Gonzales-Day’s is a slow burn. In both cases, the work is strong but the timing seems off; the viewer to forced to process each exhibition through exclusive modes that encourage focusing on just one or the other. – Cara Ober http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/06/titus-kaphar-and-ken-gonzales-day-reveal-the-fictions-in-depictions.html 10. Art of Asia at The Walters Art Museum While viewing Art of Asia, it becomes clear that the archetype of the female creator-destructor is centuries old, as long as you’re looking closely and in the right places. While Western art history presents empowered, sexually liberated, and creative women as an anomaly, Eastern religions based in India, Nepal, and Tibet have long recognized the obvious dynamism of women as multi-faceted and contradictory goddesses and depicted them as such. Although there are plenty of male dieties represented in this show of sculpture, prints, books, and devotional objects, I was drawn immediately to several prominently placed images of Devi, the goddess whose force is believed to animate all living things and aspects of the natural and generative world—including destruction, reproduction, and copulation. – Cara Ober http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/04/the-female-monster.html Honorable Mentions of 2018: A Man Was Lynched by Police Yesterday Flag by Dread Scott on North Avenue in Baltimore From 1920 through 1938, the NAACP used to hang a flag outside their New York headquarters the day after someone was lynched. It read “A Man Was Lynched Today” in graphic white letters on a black background and was part of an ongoing public campaign to draw attention to the reality of the widespread terrorism of black people in America. In 2015, artist Dread Scott made the artwork A Man Was Lynched by Police Yesterday in response to the murder of Walter Scott, whose shooting by a policeman as he fled was captured on video and shared widely. The banner looks exactly like the flag that the NAACP flew originally, except for the addition of two words: “by police.” The artwork has been hung in a number of different exhibitions, but early on was shown outside the For Freedoms exhibition organized by Hank Willis Thomas at New York’s Jack Shainman Gallery on July 7, 2016 where it received significant positive and negative national attention. Since that time, Scott’s banner has been shown in other iterations and exhibitions, including a prominent inclusion in An Incomplete History of Protest at The Whitney Museum. And now, it will be on display publicly in Baltimore, a project organized by ArtSite Old Goucher, led by Kelly Cross, and produced by KADIST via Joseph del Pesco, the International Director of KADIST who is now based in Baltimore. This is this organization’s second public art project, and it’s no less political than its first: the installation of Zoe Leonard’s I Want A President on the side of a rowhouse in the Old Goucher neighborhood. – Joseph del Pesco http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/08/dread-scotts-anti-lynching-banner-installed-in-baltimore.html A Big Toe Touches A Green Tomato: Roxana Azar and Ginevra Shay at Resort There’s something innately tender that drifts through the current exhibition A Big Toe Touches A Green Tomato at Baltimore’s newest curatorial platform, Resort. The exhibition functions as a collaboration between artists Roxana Azar and Ginevra Shay and proposes a way of belonging to the world that is at once mindful and attentive. Together the artists speak to the passage of time and the inevitability of change alongside gentle demonstrations of self-preservation. The title, too, intimates the sometimes messy, sometimes beautiful mapping of human experience onto natural rhythms. One might cite the title more fully within the text from which it belongs, one jointly conceived by the artists: “Here heaviness dissolves,” it concludes, “a big toe touches a green tomato.” – Joseph Shaikewitz http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/02/the-weight-of-living-roxana-azar-ginevra-shay.html Ronald Jackson’s Profiles of Color III: Fabric, Face and Form at Galerie Myrtis Profiles of Color III: Fabric, Face, & Form, Ronald Jackson’s latest collection currently exhibited at Galerie Myrtis, references Arkansas rural culture and violent racist history, the fantastical elements of Magical Realism and the emotional and psychological tropes of Romanticism to offer a stunning appraisal of Black aesthetics. Floral and geometric prints and vibrant fabrics are harmoniously incorporated in large expressive oil paintings. Masked and fashion forward subjects confront your gaze, peer into the heart of the matter with unabashed directness, as if they were proclaiming, “You will see me and know that I am beautiful, powerful, and worthy of representation.” The collection is breathtaking, incredibly inspiring, and exquisitely executed. – Angela N. Carroll http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/07/black-portraiture-fabric-face-and-form.html Alex Ebstein and Leah Guadagnoli: Cut, Copy, Paste: It’s Not What You Think at Terrault Contemporary There is something to be said for an object that can exist in two phases at once, especially those whose materiality is associated with common and sometimes religious performative acts. This polymorphic potential steps up to another level in the two person show at Terrault Contemporary entitled Cut, Copy, Paste: It’s Not What You Think. Artists Alex Ebstein and Leah Guadagnoli upend the traditional uses of industrial and everyday materials to bring a lightness and humor to various abstract styles while also managing to be critical of the politeness of traditional abstract visual communication. The show’s penchant for pulling disparate elements together is indicative of an investigative sense that builds ambiguity into the objects and holds fast to the motto: “It’s not what you think.” – Malcolm Lomax http://test.bmoreart.com/2018/02/code-switchers-alex-ebstein-and-leah-guadagnoli.html Related Stories Artist, Aesthete, Rock-climbing Aficionado, Towson Studio Art MFA Candidate You Wu and their art will undoubtedly survive any impending apocalypse.

Instead, a photograph is a selection of the world, giving a narrow slice of a vast reality. There is always another way of looking at things. Paul Hopkin, curator of the Pilsen gallery Slow, embraces these multiple perspectives in Slow’s newest show, “the low down.” The exhibition, a tribute to the subjectivity that colors our lives, features the work of photographers Caroline Allison and Danica Favorito and sculptor Jeffrey Grauel. Their works demonstrate a truth about truth. Which is to say, everyone has a different view of what the truth might be, their own version of the “low down.” Caroline Allison’s work treats “the low down” with a sensitive grace. Her large color photographs are serene and scenic, and yet their even composition and sharp focus creates a foreboding tension: there is something discomfiting about the tidiness of the subject matter. Take, for instance, the room depicted in “Estelle Faulkner’s Air Conditioner, Rowan Oak, Oxford, Mississippi.” A brief background to the image is given underneath the work’s title (a more literal ‘low down’): “William Faulkner refused to allow air conditioning in his house, Rowan Oak. On July 3rd, 1962, one day after Faulkner’s death, his wife Estelle installed a window unit in her bedroom.” A bedroom window, white-framed with sunlit panes, is central to the photo. An air conditioner seems almost ceremoniously perched on its sill, like a plastic obelisk. While the window unit is consistent with the airy décor and the room’s patterned wallpaper, the background information beneath the image lends it a sinister quality. Because its very presence is contingent upon the author’s death, the unit seems to have replaced Faulkner himself. Marred by the photograph’s eerie back-story, the quaint suburban aura of the photograph is dissolved. Although she exhibits a similar interest in the transformation of the quotidian to the theatrical, Danica Favorito’s work tends more toward the confessional than Allison’s. Concerning itself with interior dialogue and private longing, her intimate subject matter befits her work’s informal presentation. Allison’s photos are large, vivid, and framed—Favorito’s, on the other hand, are of low resolution, printed on computer paper, and fixed to the wall with strips of masking tape. Luckily, her strong composition can withstand such unconventional packaging. In her photograph “I wish I had a travelling van,” a woman in a parking lot aims a camera at a parked van heaped with furniture. The subject’s desirous gaze seems to lust after a different reality as she seeks to capture it on camera. The title’s adoption of the woman’s voice shortens the subject’s distance from the photographer and the viewer’s distance from the subject. The photographer seems to be expressing the wish of the photographed woman, and we, as viewers of the photograph, are mimicking her prying gaze. The roles of subject, photographer, and viewer are inextricably linked by a desire for a separate reality. Grauel, the lone sculptor of the three artists, appears to have the group’s best sense of humor. In his piece “She told me she couldn’t see good when she was spinning,” he fashions a small set of venetian blinds from sliced beer cans; perhaps drunkenness is a kind of subjectivity too. Grauel’s work can also be startlingly opaque, as is the case with “Molly and I went to the circus. Molly got hit with a bowling pin. We got even with the circus. We bought tickets but we didn’t get in.” The work is a finely rendered miniature baseball bat hanging from the ceiling, the title of which is written near the door. This sculpture, while visually appealing, seems wholly dissociated from its title. Here we are asked to abandon the notion that art should produce accessible meaning. Instead, we must embrace Grauel’s resistance to easy comprehension, however difficult to penetrate. During the opening a small boy in a Little League uniform weaved through the room before toying with Grauel’s beer can blinds. His mother chided him and apologized to the curator, who responded with, “Don’t worry about it. We’re the casual guys.” And he’s right—they are. Behind the exhibition space there was a cozy dwelling out from which the Little Leaguer emerged, yelling, “There’s pizza in the kitchen!” People smiled and migrated away from the art and towards the smell of food, a reassuring reminder that—even when viewing a show that exposes differing viewpoints and conflicting truths—there are some things that everyone can agree upon.

Car Styling brought four special issues on his work: • Designing Tomorrow (1978) • For a Brighter Tomorrow (1983) • Bio-Design of Tomorrow (1984) • Concept-Design of Tomorrow (2010) I own ‘Designing Tomorrow ‘ the first of these booklets, in the magazine edition, in very good condition. I’m selling it for 100 euros, contact me if you are interested. This is a good occasion to delve into the historiography of biomorphism: The term biomorph was coined in 1895 by anthropologist Alfred Cort Haddon in his book Evolution in Art, in which he stated that “the biomorph is the representation of anything living in contradistinction to the skeuomorph, which […] is the representation of anything”. One year later, British writer Geoffrey Grigson uses the term biomorphism in two essays: in the short “Comment on England” (1935) he notes that “abstractions are of two kinds, geometric […] and biomorphic,” and observes that the way forward are the biomorphic abstractions; in the chapter “Painting and sculpture” in The Arts Today (1935), he describes the term biomorphic as “no bad term for the paintings of Miro, Hélion, Erni and others, to distinguish them from the modern geometric abstractions and from rigid Surrealism.” Another year later, in 1936, New York art historian Alfred H. Barr Jr. in the catalogue of his 1936 exhibition Cubism and Abstract Art, borrowed Grigson’s term without acknowledgement and noted that there is a secondary current in abstract art wich stems from Gauguin and Matisse and is “intuitional and emotional rather than intellectual; organic or biomorphic rather than geometrical in its forms; curvilinear rather than rectilinear, decorative rather than structural, and romantic rather than classical in its exaltation of the mystical, the spontaneous and the irrational.” He mentions the work of Joan Miró and Jean Arp and concludes: “the shape of the square confronts the silhouette of the amoeba.” Barr elegantly points to the major faultlines in 20th century art, which run along the axes ‘straight lines vs curvilinearity’, ‘wit vs seriousness’, and ‘cult of beauty vs cult of ugliness’ (or sexuality vs asexuality). For a historiography of these early beginnings of biomorphism, consult Biocentrism and Modernism (2017). Colani is dead. The last persons in my database alive in 1928 are philosopher Noam Chomsky, anthropologist Desmond Morris, musician Ennio Morricone and photographer William Klein.

It resembles a via crucis whose stations have started to blur its limits. It has become impossible to stop at any of the sides of our way. It is not about arriving or reaching: the only possibility is going, heading, trespassing and abandoning each of the available bodies. The sound produced in the way is a chocking but free voice. Words arrive always from the other side, from other mouths that become her own voice. Words arrive to utter the crack. Broken in two. Broken in thousand. Sorrow is what appears as the space in between the pieces. The mission is falling, tasting each time the flavor of void without having the possibility of holding to anything, without possibility of finding support in the remains. The air without ground is the new home, the endless perfection of an always unexpected and unknown enlightment, the promised flight of a lonely bird “offering its beak to the wind” (San Juan de la Cruz).

Frustratingly, given the historical context, gallery-goers have been denied access to a proper caf?© in which to placate their thirst while debating taste and sabotaging reputations since the building's 1970s conversion from its original use as a teahouse. But the bright folks at the Serpentine Gallery have recently started to plug this beverage gap with a series of temporary pavilions erected annually on the surrounding lawn. The design rules are minimal. Each pavilion is intended to promote the discussion of contemporary architecture. Each high profile architectural practice is invited on the basis that the pavilion will be their first completed work in Britain. Each pavilion incorporates a caf?©. A brief history: Zaha Hadid inaugurated proceedings in the summer of 2000 with an under-funded tent. The following summer Daniel Libeskind rejigged his familiar formulae. In 2002 the importance of the project as an architectural event was confirmed when Toyo Ito built the third pavilion. Like Libeskind, Ito relied on the engineering wizardry of Cecil Balmond, head of Arup's Advanced Geometry Unit, to conjure up the deconstructed money shot that sold the project and satisfied consumers. The resulting punctured grid, folded into a green and white cube, revealed the elegant beauty of a universe where the seemingly rigid laws of mathematics merged with the forces of chaos - if only to shelter certain atrophied performances of London tea rituals and the occasional lecture or film. (I attended the premiere of 'London Orbital' by Chris Petit and Iain Sinclair in Ito's pavilion, as the daylight died thousands of the park's winged bloodsucking bugs flew through the open slots of the illuminated cube and landed on Sinclair's head). In 2003 Oscar Niemeyer designed a remote control experience of his own vitality. But while the 96 year-old Niemeyer stayed in Brazil, Brazil resolutely refused to come to London in the form of his disappointing pavilion. The following summer the punters went thirsty as Dutch architects MDRDV opted for a winter build in the form of an artificial hill that would entomb the entire gallery building. By Christmas the punters were still waiting for their caffeine fix as the MDRDV proposal was postponed. At the opening party for this year's pavilion the publicists proved wise to the fact that a gathering of architects does little to promote architecture to any broader audience. Instead, Rod Stewart and a swarm of minor celebrities posed for the paparazzi while Paris Hilton danced dangerously over the delicate brickwork of the pavilion's floor in a low-cut yellow dress. The pavilion harks back to the glory days of Ito. Co-designed by the celebrated Portuguese architects ?Ålvaro Siza and Eduardo Souto de Moura, Balmond's magic Arup wand has clearly been waved over the construction process, manipulating the rectangular wooden grid into something closer to the curving biomorphic inspiration of the eminent architects. It took me a long time to adjust to the complicated rhythms of what initially seemed like a simple structure. But then it took me a long time to get served at the caf?© counter. Without waiting for a cappuccino would I have stayed so long? Maybe not, but I would have returned. Because the best time to see this pavilion is at night when the individual solar panels attached to the polycarbonate glazing of the grid's shell light up one by one and the winged bloodsucking bugs around the park assume attack formations knowing it's their turn to drink. The history of the Serpentine Pavilion is littered with as many setbacks as successes, so the minor chorus of approval (even in as conservative an enclave as the goddamn Daily Telegraph) for this year's pavilion should prove useful in, er, preparing the ground for the potential return of MDRDV's burial mound. But in this patch of London the iron and glass ghost of another temporary structure inevitably rises through the soil. In 1851 Hyde Park was home to the mother of all modern malls: the Crystal Palace. While this year's pavilion was taking shape in central London, a few miles south of the river in Sydenham the Rebuild the Crystal Palace Group secured private funding from an anonymous benefactor to construct a third-of-the-size replica of Joseph Paxton's engineering marvel in Crystal Palace Park near the site where the reconstructed original was destroyed by fire in 1936. Setbacks and successes come in all shapes and sizes, even in the ephemeral world of pavilions. see more stories from outsideleft's Culture archive »» Henderson Downing Henderson Downing has written for various literary journals and small press magazines, he lives in London more stories you really could read... thumb through the ancient archives: search for something you might like... sign up for the outsideleft weekly. a selection of new and archived stories every week.

He is also a world renowned artist with exhibitions that have taken him to London, Paris, and Tokyo. His work is unorthodox and distinct — a sampling of calligraphy, graffiti, and personal inspirations hinting the soul of a city. The psycho geographical work is something Jose describes as “segmented realities” or “memory documents”… constructing layer upon layer upon layer culminating into a visual narrative. We’re just happy he takes the time to make cool products for The Standard shop. His items are limited edition works of art so we suggest you snatch a scarf or T-shirt before they vanish. We caught up with the Cuban-American artist based in New York to ask a few questions about what sets off his creative mind. The Standard: What would you say are the 5 main ingredients that inform your work? Inspirations? Materials? Concepts? Whatever? The five main ingredients that inform my work are: Life in the city, knowledge and amnesia, travel, primitivism and modernity, ritual and engineering, angst and spectacle, culture and critique. Can you explain your Standard collaborations, and merging your voice with what The Standard brand represents? What would you like to make next for us? My collaborations with The Standard are simple. They’re about sharing art and being part of a community that I love and respect. Next I’d like to make a beach towel, I already have an idea for it… or something even bigger, like a Standard helicopter, or an airplane! How do you prepare the studio to get “in the mood” to paint? For those who know me, they know I’m always playing music at my studio. Happy music mostly but recently I’ve been in a very romantic mood playing Los Zafiros. If I’m in the studio I’m always in the mood to paint. At what times do you receive your best inspiration, and what do you suppose triggers it? What mostly triggers me to paint is an idea that randomly appears in my thoughts. These ideas are triggered mostly by experiences that cause me to be emotional in a positive or negative way. Even if the emotion is a negative one, I feel [the need] to change that, and make something which can enrich my life, and use the feeling for my colors, gestures and marks. What projects are you working on now? Recently I’ve been working between two studios. One where I make my normal projects and paintings and the other is where I’m specifically making two gigantic paintings each 12 feet high. One is 33 feet long and the second one is 65 feet long. I call it the Concord Project and these are a commission destined for the City of Toronto, Canada. I am also working on paintings destined for OHWOW’s “It Ain’t Fair” exhibition in Miami this Art Basel Miami Beach. Also… way in advance… I’ve been working on my solo show in February of 2011 at Bryce Wolkowitz gallery. To follow Jose, go to Jose Parla Official Site, or Honeyee.com

It has to go back next week so I’m trying to make the most of it. I would love to keep it for longer as I need to start work on my new exhibition ‘Wild Atlantic Wayfarer‘ which is going to be on at the Hawk’s Well Theatre, Sligo from the end of July until the end of September. I have a whole new series of photos to get and a lot of them will involve me being on the water. So if anyone out there wants to lend me a waterproof camera that would be great….you can email me on magnumlady@eircom.net. Anyway back to the rest of the photos. All of these were taken down at the river in Coolaney. I really love this camera. It’s good and sturdy and very easy to use. I think the results are great and I’d love to see what it would get if I took it along the seabed. All of these were taken with my feet on dry land so the only part of me that got wet was my hand.

The curatorial idea of the format is to show in ‘preview’ the works of artists who are now approaching the contemporary art market and on which the galleries have a project of growth and development in the future, providing a lateral vision and a stimulating environment to discover and appreciate contemporary art. The format is based on an invitation-only opening night that becomes the first moment in which the artists and their works are unveiled to the public: until then, only the names of the participating galleries are communicated; in fact, the names of the artists will remain strictly undisclosed until the opening night. At BeAdvisors we strongly believe that the art market needs more quality and engaging art advisory, experiences besides mere objects. BeAdvisors is keen in smoothing the difficult dynamics of the contemporary art market, raising awareness about the relevance of quality art advisory services and of the research of new audiences to feed the market with, providing them with innovative, collaborative and alternative models. BeAdvisors believes in promoting and intercepting the most changing dynamics of the art world, working on projects and initiatives that create virtuous dynamics to solve the current issues in the market. The aim is to benefit the whole system: galleries, artists, collectors. There is a need for a more-quality art advisory with the role of protecting collectors from aggressive sales strategies. BeAdvisors offers a combination of professional education and investment support, which provides customized services of Art Advisory aimed to educate, inspire and support potential collectors. Without replacing personal culture and formation, a more quality art advisory is needed, being closer to the needs as well as financial and aesthetic expectations. A step-by-step approach to learning and collecting. BeAdvisors is keen not only in providing legal and financial assistance during art-purchasing processes but also in improving the understanding of the art market. Trough the format Preview, BeADvisors is creating the context to facilitate the dynamics that educate potential collectors, it is crucial to aim to an educated and conscious form of art collecting. A gradual path to make young potential collectors to develop a true passion for contemporary art. Collectors want to consume experiences besides objects. BeAdvisors strongly believes in this approach and besides organizing gallery tours, art fairs guided visits, exhibition openings tours, studio visits, through Preview is offering insights on the most potentially growing artists and most promising galleries. Installation view with works by Tobias Kaspar and Peter Linde Busk Born from the long-term collaboration between Mauro Mattei – founder of BeAdvisors Art Department – and Giorgio Bartoli – founder of the communication agency GoLab -, Preview takes place within the spaces where their offices are located in the heart of Milan, in Brera. The venue is a historical hidden jewel of the city: a 16th-century villa located in Brera, in the heart of Milan, which originally belonged to the aristocratic Milanese Kramer family. Nowadays, the spaces are employed as offices by GoLab and BeAdvisors, who have been closely collaborating for years on projects related to the world of contemporary art and communication. The idea of making the spaces available as a territory of exploration for new art formats and experiments has been a vital element of their personal collaboration for many years. Preview wants to be the tool through which the invited galleries have the opportunity to collaborate, share perspectives and visions on their artists’ path and develop new forms of exchange on an international scale in the interest of their upcoming artists. Preview aims at giving a lateral view of the contemporary art world, offering an alternative narrative to the consolidated gallery-exhibition dynamics, both in terms of time and space. The first two participating galleries are international players within the contemporary art world: Galerie Peter Kilchmann (Zurich), which presented the Swiss artist Tobias Kaspar, and Monitor (Rome and Lisbon), with artworks by the Danish artist Peter Linde Busk. In his practice, Peter Linde Busk (Copenhagen, 1973) considers the historical context of Denmark and Germany, the countries where he was raised and currently works in. The influences of CoBrA and German Expressionism are tangible in his paintings and sculptures, especially in those presented at Preview, where prominent gestures and broad brush strokes are palpable. Two white ceramic sculptures, a large woodcut print, and a rare acrylic on copper have been showcased in the space, resonating with the canvases of Tobias Kaspar. Tobias Kaspar’s (Basel, 1984) pieces reflect on the relationship between art and fashion. The use of materials is key in the use of prestigious fabric replacing the linen of canvas, whilst the subjects are romantic, repeated models. His works are the demonstration of the fleeting borders between art and fashion. For the first launch of the format, BeAdvisors and GoLab organized a private cocktail dedicated to collectors on 11th April 2018. On 14th April 2018, on the occasion of its official Launch Party, Preview hosted two special guests: Eddy Frankel, who presented the first issue of OOF – the first magazine of Art & Football and London based artist Haroon Mirza (Lisson Gallery) performed with a Live Vinyl Set during the course of the evening. Galerie Peter Kilchmann – Zurich Founded in 1992 by Peter Kilchmann, the gallery represents both established and emerging artists with an international perspective: a crucial hub for ideas and a lively interface between production and art reception. Zahnradstrasse 21 CH-8005 Zurich Monitor – Rome and Lisbon Founded in Rome in 2003 by Paola Capata, the gallery strives for not only promoting artists, but also discovering new ones. After the duo show of Nico Vascellari and Ian Tweedy, the gallery has been exhibiting artists such as Rä di Martino, Graham Hudson, Guido van der Werve, Tomaso De Luca, Jesse Ash, and Alexandre Singh. From May 2017, Monitor opened a second branch in the bustling city of Lisbon, Portugal. Palazzo Sforza Cesarini via Sforza Cesarini 43, Rome Rua D. João V, 17 A, 1250-089 Campo de Ourique, Lisbon

Full Description The third issue of Dialectic focuses on the history, theory, and practice of design-build studio and non-profit design industry. Surely, these studios work on the margins. They are realised in geographies and neighbourhoods off the cultural grid. They take students away from the grounding certainties of home and school. They transport participants to a world incompatible with the accepted norms of their educational institutions. They confront them with the limitations of high-tech spectacles born of tourist economy for the vast majority of the world that lie at the heart of disciplinary imagination. They force participants to investigate the ordinary, the understated, and the invisible, born of necessity. Most of these programs invent projects paid for with soft funds and produce clients. They do so in communities too poor to be of interest to the real estate industry and too voiceless to be heard by their councillors. They teach design’s reliance on skilled labour. Contributing essays consider if this marginal practice has the strength to hold up a mirror to the centre. They evaluate both its powerful and toothless practices, and reflect on the value of this enterprise. Photo essays provide timelines and approaches to this pedagogic movement. Since these practices create a market for their goods in defiance to the logic of the mainstream marketplace, they impose very trying demands on the time, finances, and logistics of the schools, faculty, and organisations committed to them. Are there strategies and tactics that can ensure their sustainability and secure their future? These are some of the issues touched upon here.

He is the author of Nietzsches Schatten (Berlin: Gebr. Mann, 2012). The University of Utah School of Architecture is committed to the belief that Architectural education must take as its object the production of thoughtful and humane architects capable of thinking as creatively about their representations of the world as they think about building technology and design. The School of Architecture approaches teaching and practice with a rigor that holds us, and others, accountable to high standards, without loosing a sense of adventure, risk taking and discovery. We are dedicated to mentoring young people to help them discover where their passions lie. Four core beliefs underpin the Utah School of Architecture: - Architects must take Responsibility for their work as a form of political discourse. - Architects must be focused on social, economic, and environmental Resiliency. - Architects must Respect and Respond to the communities in which they work. - Architects must be committed to Design excellence and ecology.

Luckily for us, Anna Elena Torres had been in touch with Fiks and we are excited to share their conversation. Still we were wondering, for whom did Fiks toil? Who needs to translate between Yiddish and Gay in Moscow? So we asked Joseph Heller—illustrator, queer Jew, student of Yiddish and Russian, and briefly a Muscovite himself—for his response to the book. Here is the illustration and artist statement Heller shared with us. The Editors “I am not seeking equivalencies between these two unique and historically different communities on the margins of Soviet society. What is important is not to equate Soviet Gay and Soviet Jewish culture, language, and experience, but to see them in relation to one another. If the goal of a dictionary is to facilitate understanding between speakers of different languages, then the goal of this particular dictionary is solidarity.” —Yevgeniy Fiks, from Soviet Moscow’s Yiddish-Gay Dictionary In this illustration, inspired by Yevgeniy Fiks’ artist’s book Soviet Moscow’s Yiddish-Gay Dictionary, I explored my personal experience as a queer Jewish man of color in both the United States and studying in Moscow. The surface message is a simple gay kiss between two men. I attempted to portray a soft atmosphere through warm facial expressions and spring colors. It was important for me to focus on a lighter aspect of the queer experience because while gay and queer communities struggle to breathe across the globe, it’s worth representing in our art that we are more than the oppressions we are forced to bear. Through composition I tried to reflect the tense relationship between the gay and Jewish communities in Soviet Moscow. In “Cruising by the Bolshoi, Cruising by Moscow’s Khoralnaya,the first chapter of his book, Fiks discusses the dynamic between two marginalized groups and how whenever there is room for solidarity there is also space for mutual prejudice. This theme struck me, personally, as universal. Being queer and of color I am privileged enough to witness some of the radical solidarity that flourishes between these two communities. Unfortunately, I have also seen firsthand the casual, blatant, and widely accepted racism in gay communities as well as the rampant homophobia in certain communities of color. My illustration attempts to represent the Soviet version of this tension through the composition of Moscow’s Choral Synagogue and the gays’ embrace. It’s worth noting that the synagogue and gay cruising both existed in the heart of the capital, which has interesting implications for the visibility for the two groups. Both in Soviet times and today, Jews have been allowed more visibility and acceptance in Russian society than queers have. I felt that my queer and Jewish identities shared the space but existed separately, as if I was constantly, like Sh. An-ski, “between two worlds.” This is feeling that was also present for me in the States, but I could not quite describe it until the sensation was exacerbated by my time in Moscow. While studying in the capital, I would attend Friday services at the Choral Synagogue and in the same evening attend a drag show in the basement of a building in a dark alley only a few blocks away. I was even able to study Yiddish at the Russian State University. There was always a sense that exploring my Jewish identity was more formally accepted; I was able to wear my kippah on the metro while en route to High Holiday services without question. However, any exploration of my queer identity was conducted in the dark. Whether I was performing in an electric drag show in a clandestine side alley, or on a somber date in a park by metro Year 1905, my queer identity never enjoyed the same freedom or visibility that my Jewish Identity did. The Choral Synagogue perched in the upper left-hand corner of the painting and the gay embrace mirrored in the opposite corner reflects the movement I felt while transitioning between these two identities. The electric cables try to connect the two scenes but can not quite succeed while reinforcing the feeling of movement and hierarchy—a possible solidarity despite a constant disconnect. While most of the colors of the piece imply the potential for vibrant coexistence between the two groups, the grey sky, for me, is the most important color of the piece in terms of how viewers are meant to read the environment. The grey is meant to reflect the anxiety both Jews and queers felt during Soviet times and that gays continue to face today. Grey skies often are a sign of a looming storm, snow, or rain. In terms of my Jewish identity, this represents the sleepy, almost indifferent, current attitudes towards Jews I’ve experienced in Moscow today as well as a state of uncertainty for the gays. And finally, I explored the question of race. While my Jewish identity was allowed more visibility, it never felt like a result of acceptance or true tolerance but rather redirected Russian anxieties. The aggressively negative attitudes of Russians toward Central Asians and people from the Caucasus region was undeniable. Again, I recognized a similar pattern of racial hierarchy that is relevant in the States within our own gay communities. And like in our queer communities and communities of color, many people with multiple marginalized identities found themselves caught between worlds lacking support and empowerment from both sides. Fiks’ exploration of Soviet Yiddish and gay culture was not only fascinating to read but struck me as an important work because of the universal themes it illuminates. Soviet gay Jews may seem like a niche demographic, but the issues Fiks’ book covers cross borders and time periods and are applicable to so many current conversations concerning race, gender, and sexuality. I am excited to continue reading Fiks’ work and examining intersecting and contrasting identities through Yiddish, gay, and Soviet lenses.

I was born in Ogden, Utah, but I've called Kansas home since 2006. I'm an introvert with two kids, Olive and Fox. I love: reading, interior design, outer space, sustainability, a good pair of jeans and Disney World. I truly don't remember a time I didn't have a camera in my hand - growing up before smart phones, it was usually a disposable film camera from the grocery store, or even Polaroids. Digital is a lot more efficient, but I'm a big believer in the magic of film and I strive to provide a film-inspired look to the images I create. I love the glow of golden hour, and wind-blown hair and making friends out of clients I'm inspired by the pictures of my family from decades past, and of the feeling I get looking back at these frozen moments of time, passed down generation after generation. Now is our time to document the little moments and big events, and I am honored to be the one behind the camera for yours. "Collect memories, not things." I know. Talking about money is awkward. I get it. But photography is one of the most valuable things you can ever invest in. It's what we show off in our homes, what we pass down to future generations, and what we have left when memories fade. No matter the occasion, you shouldn't be looking for someone cheap, you should be looking for someone who will pour their everything into creating the best possible experience and the most beautiful images just for you. If you're looking for someone who will spend 20 minutes with you, give you a bunch of digital images you'll never do anything with (and forget about a month later), I'm not the photographer for you. If you're looking for someone who sees photography as an art to be treasured, who will help you plan every last detail of your session, and guide you through carefully selecting the perfect prints and products, I'm your girl. A non-refundable deposit of 50% is due at booking for all sessions. Your deposit holds your chosen date and is applied toward your overall balance. The remainder of your session fee is due anytime before your session date. Golden hour sessions For families, engagements, seniors and more, I love to utilize the glow of golden hour to create timeless, natural images. Each outdoor session includes: • pre-session consultation + Welcome Guide • 1 hour of shoot time • professional direction for posing • custom retouching and creative editing • a password-protected online gallery • print orders straight from your gallery Boudoir sessions Maybe you've always wanted to do a boudoir session, but you've been putting it off, saying you'll do it when you lose weight or after the baby comes, when you find The One or when you do this or do that. Girl, no. You're perfect. Exactly as you are, right now. Cellulite, curves, baby bump, lopsided boobs, split ends. Every single bit of you is camera ready. And boudoir sessions can make great gifts, but this is for Y-O-U. Maybe you're nervous because you don't feel confident and you don't know how to pose. I promise, I'll give you all the direction you need. From your butt to your hair, I'll get all the right angles, hitting just the right light so your session makes you feel gorgeous, empowered and good as hell. Yeah, I'm quoting Lizzo. Sorry not sorry. Each boudoir session includes: • pre-session consultation + the OFP Boudoir Guide • professional hair + makeup on-site • 1-2 hours of shoot time • 2+ outfit changes • professional direction for posing • custom retouching and creative editing • same-day gallery reveal and product ordering The non-refundable session fee holds your spot on my calendar and includes professional hair and makeup on-site. Session fee does not include digital or physical products. Products such as luxury albums, retro viewfinders, digital images and more are available for purchase separately.

Increased public access to bathrooms doesn’t just mean everyone has a pot to piss in; it can also increase health, dignity, confidence, and employability for the homeless. And San Francisco nonprofit Lava Mae is getting the word out about that — in the form of a parade of beautiful artistic toilets. Grist thanks its sponsors. Become one. Lava Mae is working to get San Francisco buses retrofitted with toilets and showers, and in the meantime it wants to make San Francisco natives aware of the importance of restroom access. So the group commissioned three artists and three designers to kit out five thrones and install them on Market Street. The awareness campaign, bless their hearts, is called “C’mon Give A Sh_t!” No word on whether anyone peed in any of the toilets, but if they did, we trust they probably needed to and we hope it helped. Grist thanks its sponsors. Become one.

In the paucity of information about Haitian art and artists working in the past fifteen years, it seems remarkable that we have the published records we do about Dieuseul Paul, who was interviewed in the book “Billeder Fra Haiti” or “Images from Haiti,” an outstanding catalog in Danish and English based on the personal Haitian art collection of Danish filmmaker and sometime Haitian resident Jorgen Leth. Paul said he started painting on Christmas day, 1971, though he wasn’t formally exhibited with the Saint Soleil school of avant-garde Haitian painters until ten years later. Tiga Garoute, a painter himself, encouraged him and all the other Saint Soleil painters. Paul explains what he does and doesn’t know about his art in “Images from Haiti:” “I am not able to give you all the explanations. That’s for the intellectual, for the art critic to say what they really represent. This is what I do, this is my style. Look, here I can tell you this is a face or whether I see a flower. I can tell you this is a flower or this is a bird, but to tell you all the meaning at other levels would be very very difficult for me because I never went to school or to any painting school. It’s just a mystery of Creation.” Yet he admitted there was a distinction in his own work that set it apart from the other four core artists in the Saint Soleil group — Prospere Pierre Louis (deceased), Louisiane Saint Fleurant (deceased), Levoy Exil and Denis Smith. Those intimate with the styles of all five can immediately discern a Dieuseul Paul from a Levoy Exil, but it is hard to verbalize why. What Paul didn’t address in the book was his remarkable sense of color. Hanging on my living room wall is one of my favorite paintings by this artist. “Three Women Joined,” an acrylic on canvas measuring 24 1/2″ by 24 1/2″ framed, is a 1987 painting of the Marassa or triplets, protective Vodou spirits of children. It is rendered in Paul’s traditional way, with heavy black outlining of the figures who are deep purple set against a vivid orange background. What a color combination! It sounds bizarre but somehow he made it work. Another favorite painting by Paul I found in a dusty gallery on Delmas Road in Port-au-Prince. It was on canvas and I had to have it. The problem was, it wasn’t signed. I told my friend Dr. Carlos Jara, an esteemed art dealer in Haiti, to keep it and perhaps he would run into Paul some day. And he did! The next time Carlos visited me in Florida, he brought the signed painting, done in cheerful greens, reds and oranges. The beginnings of life are the obsession of the Saint Soleil painters. Women are revered. There is a verve and energy about all the Saint Soleil artists’ work. With the death of Dieuseul Paul, the value of his work increases for the specialized collector appreciative of his extraordinary paintings. He ended his interview in “Images from Haiti” by saying this: “These are very spiritually inspired paintings representing harmony, unity and the relationship between the spiritual and the material. And this is exactly the power of art…There is such a strong spirit in Saint Soleil — sometimes it prevents you from sleeping.” -the end-

Painting the windows is something that I like to do with pleasure and even more knowing that I can prevent their deterioration due to humidity and rain. For some of the windows I used a ladder, but for others a small stool or stool was sufficient. And because it was sunny, the shadows on the concrete in front of my mother's house are very sharp. When I was on the stool painting the upper part of the windows, I looked again at the stool and from this perspective I had more unique shadows. Later, I played a bit with the scissors I had with me and placed them in different positions which together with the rivets of the stool in my creative interior made me imagine a face with some kind of moustache or goatee.

EUR 293 USD 324 14 day full return-right Watercolor, pencil and ink on 200 gsm acid-free fine art paper An original drawing by Emilie Aastrup Fits a standard A3 frame. Frame not included. Emilie Aastrup graduated from Camberwell College of Art in 2013 and works with drawing, painting, illustration, prints and zines. In her artworks Emilie examines how humans relate to their environment. Both in terms of the relation to nature and the city, but also the space created in relation to other people and the ego itself. Aastrup uses drawings and paintings to visualize intangible everyday phenomena that are difficult to maintain and put into words. The term interacts with the figurative narrative language and the abstract degraded language. The works are often part of a long-term exploration of a topic or problem which is supported by systematic drawing experiments.

In October 1998 a twenty one year old student at the University of Wyoming was kidnapped, severely beaten and left to die, tied to a fence in the middle of the prairie outside Laramie Wyoming. His body was not discovered until the next day and he died several days later in an area hospital. His name was Matthew Shepard and he was the victim of this assault because he was gay. Moises Kaufman and fellow members of the Tectonic Theatre Project made six trips to Laramie over the course of a year and a half in the aftermath of the beating and trial. They interviewed more than 200 people in the town of Laramie. They then constructed a deeply moving theatrical experience from these interviews and their own experiences. The Laramie Project is a breathtaking theatrical collage that explores the depths to which humanity can sink and the heights of compassion of which we are capable.

I drew the original portrait earlier this year as a gift for my girl. We are both huge fans of Chris Cornell and I drew this tribute exactly one year after Chris Cornell's passing.. The original is drawn with Faber Castell graphite pencils and took me around +25 hours to complete. Prints are available in the following sizes: - DIN A4 (11,7 x 8,3 inches) or - DIN A3 (16,5 x 11,7 inches) All my prints are personally signed by me, Robert Lee Jordan. Prints are securely packed in a firm tube with protection inside to prevent damage. I also work on commission, so if you would like an original portrait drawn of your favourite rockstar or moviestar4) I've received the poster a week after it was ordered and shipped, so it actually arrived before schedule. It was rolled up and sent in a tube which, I'm sure, makes it easier for transport and lowers the possibility of being damaged. To me this seems like a smart and efficient solution. The portrait itself is beautiful, even more than it shows on the photos. Thank you, Robert! :) the seller is so accommodating and helpful. I would order again from him. The print was perfect. Really love the print. Looks great in A2 frame with mount. Robert was very kind and sent me an extra print of Eddie for free. Very fast delivery, really well packed and top notch service. Hope your business flourishes. Thanks Legal imprint

Each artist sourced paper and employed it for its formal, inventive and for some, political potential. Two artists included – Pierre Alechinsky and Nancy Spero – relied solely on paper for their most major works, while the others saw paper as a medium equal to canvas for their expression. As early as the mid-1960’s Pierre Alechinsky decided to work only on paper mounted on canvas ; predominately Chinese paper, with acrylic and India ink. Dernier coucher (1975) is a superb and vividly colored painting, freshly released from the artist’s studio. Günther Förg carefully chose the size of the sheet in relation with the composition. The paper’s surface and its size were integral to his idea. In this characteristic work from 1994, he used wove acrylic brushstrokes into a texture that attracts the viewer deep inside the space of the painting, beyond the surface grid. Hélio Oiticica, a key member of the Brazilian Neo-Concrete whose influence is still felt all over Latin America, is represented by a metaesquemas –translated as “total system”. Made in a concentrated period from 1957 to 1958, the later metaesquemas, such as this one, are characterized by a carefully painted grid that is skewed. Geometry and careful calibration of color is used to describe a utopia. Ana Mendieta translated her ephemeral practices in the landscape to independent art objects through sculptures, drawings, photographs, mixed media works, and films. Drawings became increasingly important throughout the artist’s career, serving as a way of “bringing the nature inside”. These works consider a different facet of Mendieta’s investigation of form, imbued with both plastic and symbolic meaning. Etel Adnan was also significantly engaged in the defense of peace in a troubled period. In the Seventies, towards the end of the war in Vietnam and before the civil war started in Lebanon, she left California for her native Beirut. There she became a journalist while remaining a painter and made a series of small works on paper where seemingly abstract compositions made with pastel strokes create poetic landscapes. Time and landscape – as geology and history – are enduring motifs of Michelle Stuart’s sculpture, photography and works on paper. One of the few living land artists, she traveled extensively in the U.S. Southwest in the 70’s, often identifying a site that was rich in history. Galesteo is a scroll drawing made from crushed red earth of Galesteo, New Mexico, originally the home of Native American Pueblo community, worked painstakingly into the surface of the paper. As opposed to canvas, which often requires a studio, preparation and specific tools, paper is often seen by artists as a more spontaneous medium. Our presentation will reveal these diverse and renowned artists’ commitment and exploration to works on paper. Current fairs

Closure details. Online resources are available in our Digital Library, 24–7. Judging a book by its cover Posted on August 4, 2016 at 6:00 am By Amanda Flanery A book can be a quiet escape for those of us seeking adventure, improvement, understanding, or intrigue. We understand that by opening a book, we’re opening ourselves to a world that’s a little better understood. As a member and employee of the library, I appreciate and advocate all of these things. But if I’m being real, as the graphic designer for the Spokane County Library District, I’m TOTALLY judging those books by their covers. And in reality, the book may never touch my fingertips if the artwork on the cover doesn’t speak to me first. But what makes a book cover ‘speak to us’? Perhaps it’s as simple as a favorite color, a great font, or imagery that conjures up a fond memory. And while these reasons may be enough for picking up a book, it’s also based on each person’s unique and subjective opinion. How could the book cover artist ever attempt to ‘cover’ every unique viewpoint? Fortunately, there are 7 Guiding Principles of Design that, when followed, can help create a focal point and visual interest. It isn’t necessary to use all seven at once in every design. The seven are: balance, movement, unity, repetition, proximity, contrast, and white space. When done well, using even one of these ideas can take a design from good to great and get the book off the shelf. So, let’s look at each principle and a book cover that nailed its execution. Witches of America by Alex Mar, designed by Rachel Willey, art direction by Rodrigo Corral This striking book cover features an inkblot blackbird flying (or falling) straight down from the top of the book. Balancing the bird, is a heavy, black circle placed directly below it. The balance between the blackbird and the circle below it lead the eye from the flying bird to the title of the book, which overlays the circle in a delicate, illuminating gold leaf. The balance used here between like materials, as well as, heavy black and delicate gold, creates a beautiful and carefully balanced composition. I also encourage you to give it a second look as I believe there’s more here than initially meets the eye. The Librarian by Mikhail Elizarov, designed by David Pearson The cover art for The Librarian is hard to miss as it almost shouts at you as you pass by. The irony of a book called “The Librarian” shouting at passers-by, makes me chuckle, but suits the book as its name and premise has nothing to do with the traditional librarians we know and love. To read the title of this book, you use the literal movement of hashed lines drawn diagonally and across the cover, but you also follow the implied movement of the jagged, red shapes and the finger pointing to the author’s name. The movement and extreme nature of the shapes and letters on this cover contribute to its allure and reveal the unrest and turmoil that lie within its pages. The Vegetarian by Han Kang, designed by Tom Darracott I really love this book cover for the UK edition. The designer, Tom Darracott, used the design principle of unity. At first glance, the cover looks like a beautiful bouquet of nude and electric pink tiger lilies, but when you look closer, you’ll notice some really disturbing and disparate images—a tongue, four of five fingers, an eyeball, a slimy snail, a large fly, a marbled steak, a straw, and some sort of probe or chopsticks. It’s a beautiful cover, until you realize that the unity of colors, textures, and shapes camouflages an almost grotesque gathering of objects lending to the troubled subject of this novel. Super Sad True Love Story by Gary Shteyngart, designed by Rodrigo Corral Nothing says mega-sale like lots of brightly colored stickers plastered on everything in sight. That’s exactly what I think of when I see this vibrant book cover by Rodrigo Corral. The repetitive shapes, colors, and bold hand-written font draw your attention but also depict one of the story’s main themes: mass consumerism. While the imagery itself is devoid of any emotion, the colors nod toward happy while the title literally says, “SAD.” This book cover does a great job pulling you in, while leaving you wanting more. Unabrow: misadventures of a late bloomer by Una LaMarche, designed by Zoe Norvell Proximity in design helps you create a hierarchy of elements. It’s the organization of like elements to help the viewer understand the order in which to view them. On this amusing cover, the title sits at the top of the page but directs your eye toward the delightful face of Una LaMarche as a child and her incredible unibrow. Proximity of the title’s position to the brow and the author’s name helps us make the tie between the play on the words “unibrow” and “unabrow,” the second of which includes the author’s first name. The subtitle, “misadventures of a late bloomer,” positioned at the bottom of the page, reinforces what you may have already guessed from the comical title and photo that take center stage on this cover. I dare you not to smile at this one. Area X by Jeff VanderMeer, designed by Rodrigo Corral When you first hear contrast, you may think of black versus white or shadow versus light (as used in photography), but contrast can occur in different ways in design. A good example is the cover of Area X, which uses contrast in a few ways to get our attention. First, it uses the juxtaposition between the natural branches with shedding needles and artificial, hard-edged permanence of the slash. Second is the contrast between the alarming red and earth-toned, forest greens. And third, the contrast of the light background and the bold ‘X’ that stands-alone on the page enforces the focus on the image (unlike other book covers that also contain an author name and sometimes even a written review). Loneliness by John T. Cacioppo and William Patrick, designed by Peter Mendelsund So far, I’ve focused on the images and text that make book cover art great, but an article on principles of design can’t overlook the space that is left untouched, or “white space.” This “negative space” can be as important or, sometimes, more important than the space with images and text. The book cover for Loneliness uses white space to reiterate the feeling of loneliness. With the majority of the information placed at the bottom of the cover, the title is in a humble type, alone, with lots of space between the letters, and without capitalization in the center of a large white expanse that consumes the top two-thirds of the page. And even further isolated in the white space is the dot of the ‘i’, completely alone and segregated from the rest of the title. Here, it’s the white space around that little dot and the title that speaks louder than words. I hope you enjoyed taking this tour of book covers and design principles with me. While I won’t say, “I hope you judge a book by its cover,” I do hope the next time you’re perusing your next great read, you’ll take time to consider the cover art. It may just be the thing that gets you to the final page.

Clare O’Neill has borrowed the age-old encaustic process to give emotion and mystery to her photographs. Currently living in Minnesota, Claire began her photographic career traveling the Irish countryside. After a professional change just three years ago, she was able to exhibit her first body of photographic work showcasing the people and places of Ireland. Her photography began in black and white, but her desire to create depth and texture has led her to explore innovative techniques. To create the mysterious depth you see above, Claire uses encaustic, a wax-based medium that originated thousands of years ago to waterproof and decorate ancient Greek war ships. Claire layers this encaustic wax over her digital photographic images to suggest an “imaginative, sensual, and provocative style”. Her materials include molten beeswax, pigment and damar crystals. The process includes fusing layers of wax after each application to allow viewing many layers at once. Claire will keep manipulating her materials until it feels just right. On Bridge These images are not only mysterious, but timeless. They seem to be a window into the past and definitely place an antique spin on our contemporary lives. Claire’s process also seems to heighten her subject’s presence. In the image above, the skyline is a beautiful collection of light and dark tones, reinforcing the city’s depth. The two pedestrians, laden in black, act as a resting point for our eyes. Claire states that perfection and control in photo encaustics is impossible. The elegance evolves from imperfection and satisfaction from the unexpected. I invite you to visit Claire’s website at www.ClareONeill.com to explore this lovely old-world spin on contemporary photography. This post may contain affiliate links.
