    En associant le mot rocaille, référence aux formes alambiquées des coquillages, à l’italien baroco, les Français donnèrent naissance au terme de « rococo ». Apparu au début du XVIIIe siècle, il s’étendit rapidement à l’ensemble de l’Europe.

    Rococo

    February 22, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Deriving from the French word rocaille, in reference to the curved forms of shellfish, and the Italian barocco, the French created the term ‘Rococo’. Appearing at the beginning of the 18th century, it rapidly spread to the whole of Europe. Extravagant and light, Rococo responded perfectly to the spontaneity of the aristocracy of the time. In many aspects, this art was linked to its predecessor, Baroque, and it is thus also referred to as late Baroque style.

    Shelley’s Art Musings – “Carolina” – Is it a Coming of Age or Voyeuristic Venture of a Sculpture?

    January 25, 2018 / 0 Comments

    Nestled in the Gabriel-Pierné Square in Paris, there is the Carolina statue created by Marcello Tommasi.  This is a bronze statue, created in 1968, showing in detail a naked young girl. As you look at her, you may feel that she is stood rather awkwardly, her right arm turned at a difficult angle, her developing hips pushed slightly too far to one side and her face struck in an expression of distinct determination. You may also feel slightly unnerved that this statue, which is looking directly ahead, is clearly an early teenage girl and is showing her developing body so brazenly. Tommasi was an Italian painter and sculptor who died in…

    Buddhismus zwischen Trend und Tradition

    June 12, 2013 / 0 Comments

    „Wenn der Eisenvogel fliegt und die Reitpferde auf Rädern rollen, wird der Mann aus dem Schneeland seine Heimat verlassen müssen und die buddhistische Lehre wird die Länder des rotwangigen Mannes erreichen.” Mit dieser verblüffend realitätsnahen Prophezeiung sagte einer der Begründer des Buddhismus, der Mönch Padmasambhava, bereits vor über 1200 Jahren den Erfolgskurs des buddhistischen Glaubens in Richtung Westen voraus. Ob er damals bereits ahnte, in welcher Form die spirituellen Weisheiten hierorts praktiziert werden würden, ist jedoch fraglich. Eines ist jedenfalls sicher: Der Buddhismus liegt bei uns mittlerweile voll im Trend. Die einen dekorieren mithilfe von exotischem Massivholz-Interieur und diversen Accessoires aus dem Asiashop die eigenen vier Wände zum privaten Shangri-La…
