    TÊTE DE TAUREAU (ÉTUDE PREPARATOIRE POUR GUERNICA)

    Quand les soldats allemands venaient dans mon studio et regardaient mes photos de Guernica, ils me demandaient: ‘As-tu fait ça?’. Et je dirais: “Non, vous l’avez fait.”

    Impressionism: a Disney movie without all of the singing

    May 2, 2013 / 0 Comments

    Nature? Good. Romance? I can dig it. Impressionism? Bite me. You know what Impressionism is? It’s a beautiful, made-up, dream-like view at an otherwise harsh, sometimes cruel reality. Impressionism is to art viewers what Disney movies are to the generation of 20-somethings that grew up expecting perfect hair, woodland friends, and Prince Charming – not to mention the desire to go around singing about everything all of the damn time.

    July 5, 2012 / 0 Comments

    Glorias deportivas aparte, tenemos poco que celebrar en estos tiempos en los que términos como «prima de riesgo», «rescate», «crisis de deuda» y «medidas de austeridad» retumban en nuestros oídos a diario. La situación del desempleo en el mundo se ha vuelto alarmante; casi mil millones de personas padecen hambre y desnutrición; las ventas y las inversiones de Coca-Cola en la India aumentan de forma pronunciada mientras unos 200 millones de indios no disponen de acceso a agua potable; Irán persiste en sus amenazas a Israel; Siria y Turquía movilizan aviones de guerra; los grandes centros comerciales, los automóviles de lujo y los pomposos rascacielos proliferan en países donde la…

    Jeunes Messieurs, prenez-en de la graine…

    July 5, 2012 / 0 Comments

    Pour la plupart des jeunes Messieurs d’aujourd’hui, il faut bien l’avouer, la danse se limite à sauter dans tous les sens sur de la musique rock… Eh bien, Mesdemoiselles, figurez-vous qu’il était un temps où ces Messieurs savaient encore se tenir dans les soirées dansantes – les boîtes de nuit de l’époque…Un temps que, malheureusement les moins de 20 ans, etc. S’ils n’étaient pas des princes de contes de fées – qui eux aussi savent tous danser, vous l’aurez remarqué …- ils savaient au moins faire virevolter, tournoyer, chavirer (?) leur cavalière !     Regardez ces trois dames : une a les yeux mi-clos, l’autre s’appuie délicatement sur son…

    Romance us please, Renoir

    July 4, 2012 / 0 Comments

    For the first time in 26 years, Renoir’s trio of amorous dancing couples are reunited in Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts. And boy, do we need some romance in our lives. Life is far from peachy at the moment in the West: stagnating economies, rising unemployment, a proliferation of extreme right-wing ideologies, decreasing social mobility, and the oxymoronically-phrased ‘negative growth’ all give rise to a rather bleak outlook. Is it any wonder that, whilst many young Westerners escape to the East in search of more prosperous times, those left on the sinking ship turn to drink, drugs, and dangerous driving in order to forget about the futility of their futures?…

    « T’as d’beaux yeux, tu sais ! »

    July 2, 2012 / 0 Comments

    Que l’on soit plutôt « Vous êtes faite pour l’amour ! » ou « T’as de beaux yeux, tu sais ! », personne n’est insensible à une déclaration d’amour du 7ème art. Vivien Leigh et Clark Gable, Michèle Morgan et Jean Gabin, Tippi Hedren et Sean Connery… On ne compte plus les couples mythiques du grand écran ! Autres « toiles », autres couples magiques… Parmi tous les amoureux fixés par les peintres pour l’éternité, si je ne devais en choisir qu’un seul, ce serait Le Couple face au monde (Das Paar vor den Menschen), de Kirchner. Toile pleine de rêve, de sensualité et de mystère : l’homme et la femme, nus sans avoir honte, marchant du…

    Love and Passion in Their Time and Place

    July 2, 2012 / 0 Comments

    What is your least favourite thing about Facebook – the most popular social networking tool in existence? I would have to say, just barely beating the 12 engagements a week which are really just a reminder of how lonely I might be someday, it is undoubtedly the mushy, gushy, self-taken photos of a lip-locked couple. That’s nice, I’m happy for you, but do you really need to plaster it all over my newsfeed? But when did a couple in love start to produce this shuttering, nearly vomit inducing feeling? Certainly artists from the 15th century and beyond were able to find beauty and romance in such imagery. How many of…
