    What Boston Loves

    March 4, 2014 / 0 Comments

    In an attempt to manipulate the power of the Internet, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston used crowdsourcing to select pieces for its ongoing exhibition, Boston Loves Impressionism. During the month of January, the MFA held an online vote every week, garnering up to 41,000 votes. This exhibition explores the predominating artistic taste of Bostonians.   It neither focuses on the Impressionist movement nor on the individual artists, but rather highlights the connection Boston feels towards each piece. The top three selected works are undeniable favorites. Van Gogh’s Houses at Auvers received the most votes, surpassing Claude Monet’s Water Lilies by at least 1,000 total votes. The only sculpture in…

    Eng an eng – Dancing with Renoir

    July 5, 2012 / 0 Comments

    Das, was heutzutage als eine altmodische Form der Annäherung an das andere Geschlecht eher belächelt wird, war zu Lebzeiten Pierre-Auguste Renoirs mit dem Paartanz wie Polka oder Walzer, um nur zwei zu nennen, bei gesellschaftlichen Anlässen aller Art der Standard und eine beliebte Beschäftigung im Ballsaal oder im Freien. Renoir bildet in vielen seiner Werke die lebensbejahenden Seiten des Lebens ab, fröhliche gesellschaftliche Zusammenkünfte, das anmutige Zusammenspiel der Tanzenden – Harmonie und Lebensfreude tauchen in vielen seinerGemälde als Grundmotive auf. Zum ersten Mal seit über 25 Jahren sind die drei etwa zwei Meter hohen Gemälde der tanzenden Paare Renoirs Tanz in Bougival, Tanz auf dem Land und Tanz in der…

    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?…
