    Don’t just do something – sit there.

    January 24, 2013 / 0 Comments

    In theory yoga is this beautiful, wonderful, spiritual experience that is meant to cleanse mind, body, and soul. In practice yoga causes a slew of frowned upon words to come flying out of my mouth at record speeds. It is a deep, dark torture which we, as masochists, inflict upon ourselves day after day of shaking cores, trembling arms, and ready-to-collapse legs. We stretch ourselves in ways we never thought possible, only to discover they are possible, but will we be stuck this way forever? The idea of sitting still long enough to have my portrait painted makes my muscles ache in a way that I’ve only known through Downward-Facing…

    Impresionismo y la moda

    October 23, 2012 / 0 Comments

    Ahora que están tan de moda los blogs de estilismo y las egobloggers son las nuevas estrellas de la red, no está de más recordar que ellas no son las primeras ni las últimas en interesarse por la moda ni retratar el estilismo contemporáneo. Haciendo un trabajo a medio camino entre los paparazzis y los cazadores de tendencias, los impresionistas, en su afán por retratar la vida urbana de la época, se convirtieron en pintores de la moda (que no de moda, la mayoría del público los denostaba). Desde los bailes de Renoir a las noches de ópera de Mary Cassat, podemos encontrar en sus cuadros a la gente «in»…

    La Belle Époque – Eine Hommage auf die Freizeit

    October 20, 2012 / 0 Comments

    Ein gemeinsames Frühstück im Grünen, danach ein Ausritt oder vielleicht eine Kutschfahrt? Zum Mittagessen in eines der schönen Restaurants am Grand Boulevard, dann ein ausgedehnter Schaufensterbummel, ein kurzer Plausch im Café und abends vielleicht ins Theater, in die Oper oder doch lieber zum Ballett? Eine der großen Neuerungen, die die zweite Welle der Industriellen Revolution in Frankreich mit sich brachte, war die „Freizeit“. Die materielle und politische Absicherung des Bürgertums in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts ließ die Menschen der sogenannten Belle Époque optimistisch in die Zukunft blicken. Mit dem Wirtschaftsaufschwung ging auch ein kultureller Aufschwung einher: Neue Cafés, Ateliers, Galerien, Salons und Konzertsäle mit einem vielfältigen kulturellen Freizeitangebot…

    Impressionably Fashionable

    October 19, 2012 / 2 Comments

    Where do you go when you are looking for the latest fashion designs? Or want to see what is à la mode on the High Street? Or perhaps, just want to see what’s going on in the city? Well, the internet.  Right?  Or a fashion magazine.      I think that if we were to be suddenly transported to the 19th Century we would be in for a big culture shock! No internet, no modern conveniences…and yet, society of the 19th Century, in some respects, is considered to be more cultured and sophisticated than our own.  More genteel, certainly!  Impressionists such as Renoir, Cassatt, and Monet: these were the people…

    Le meilleur d’Edgar Degas – maintenant en format e-book

    March 27, 2012 / 0 Comments

    La maison d’édition Parkstone International est enchantée par la perspective de l’exposition Degas et le nu – la première traitant exclusivement de cet artiste depuis plus de vingt ans. Nous nous réjouissons à l’avance à l’idée de pouvoir la visiter au musée d’Orsay. Suivant cette même volonté de faire honneur à Edgar Degas, nous avons récemment publié un e-book réunissant les chefs-d’œuvre du peintre en matière de nus féminins. Cet ouvrage est disponible sur Amazon. Il constitue un guide complet et pratique, révélateur de la maîtrise du peintre en ce qui concerne la composition d’une toile. Cet ouvrage abondamment illustré, présente les œuvres les plus emblématiques de Degas, représentatifs des…
