    Was können wir noch tun, außer die laufenden Olympischen Spiele in Frankreich zu genießen?

    August 8, 2024 / 0 Comments

    Während die Olympischen Spiele ein aufregendes Spektakel bieten, ist Frankreich ein Paradies für Kunstliebhaber und bietet eine Fülle kultureller Erfahrungen. Von kultigen Museen und zeitgenössischen Galerien bis hin zu historischen Stätten und lebendigen Straßenkunstszenen bietet Frankreich unendlich viele Möglichkeiten, in sein reiches künstlerisches Erbe einzutauchen.

    „Das letzte Abendmahl“ bei den Olympischen Spielen 2024 in Paris – war es eine Parodie oder ein Zufall?

    August 1, 2024 / 0 Comments

    Die Eröffnung der Olympischen Spiele 2024 in Paris löste mit einer Präsentation, die an Leonardo da Vincis „Letztes Abendmahl“ erinnert, eine Kontroverse aus. War das wirklich so gewollt?

    Shelleys Kunstskandal – Wann wird Kunst zur Pornographie?

    June 10, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Dies ist meiner Meinung nach ein sehr heikles Thema. Es gibt viele Gemälde aus allen Epochen, die Frauenakte zeigen, die die Zurschaustellung ihrer Weiblichkeit genießen, ebenso wie es eine Fülle von Statuen gibt, die Männer stehend zeigen, die nackt ringen oder jagen. Sie werden im Allgemeinen als klassische Kunst angesehen, weil sich jemand die Zeit genommen hat, sie bis ins kleinste Detail zu malen oder zu modellieren, während man sie, wie heute, wahrscheinlich als obszön oder pornografisch bezeichnen würde, wenn es sich um eine Fotografie desselben Bildes handeln würde. Ich erinnere mich, dass ich den Schauspieler Bill Hicks auf seiner “Relentless”-Tournee in den 90er Jahren sah, und es gibt einen…

    Shelley’s Art Scandal – When Does Art Become Pornography?

    May 25, 2020 / 0 Comments

    This subject is a fine line one in my opinion.  There are plenty of paintings from through the ages that show naked women lounging around displaying their femininity, equally there is an abundance of statues which show men standing around, wrestling or hunting naked.  These are usually considered classical art, because someone has taken the time to paint or sculpt them in fine detail, where as now, if it was a photo of the same image, it would probably be considered lewd or pornographic. I can remember, way back in the 90’s, listening to the comedian Bill Hicks on his “Relentless” tour, and there is a piece of that stand…

    Masculine/ Masculine?

    December 4, 2013 / 0 Comments

    When we hear ‘nude’, for most of us the image of a female body would immediately spring to mind.  One of Titian’s fleshy, languorous beauties perhaps, or self-possessed Olympia and her hostile black cat. This is unsurprising, considering the proliferation of female nudes dominating art in the recent centuries.  Before the 19th century, however, the male nude was considered much more important to artists.  The male body was thought more attractive and the more important of the human forms. So much so that looking at many works from the Italian Renaissance, you would be forgiven for seeing men with a couple of breasts stuck on for fun, rather than a…

    Olympia in Venice

    Remember the first time you went away from home for an extended period of time? Your mother made sure you packed warm socks and clean pants, even if it was going to be 40 degrees Celsius in your final destination. She called and wrote you often, making sure you were eating your vegetables and brushing your teeth. She loved and worried about you. I imagine this is what the Musée d’Orsay is going through at the moment, having sent one of its most precious babies off to Italy for the summer.
