    Kleine Mädchen – Ein paar schöne Bilder zum Buch

    June 3, 2021 / 0 Comments

    Seit die alten Griechen die ersten Kouroi schufen, inspirierten Kinder einige der größten Künstler der Welt. Ob Porträts von ihren eigenen Kindern, Freunden oder Familienmitgliedern, oder als nostalgische psychologische Studie der eigenen Kindheit, Darstellungen von Kindern in der Kunst bleiben eindrucksvolle Beispiele für den Schnittpunkt zwischen der malerischen Unschuld der Kindheit und der methodischen Arbeit des erwachsenen Künstlers. In diesem neuen Puzzle-Buch bekommen Kinder die Gelegenheit, kleine Jungen und Mädchen wie sie selbst, von großen Künstlern dargestellt, zu sehen und dabei zu erfahren, wie Kinder im Laufe der Geschichte aufwuchsen, und gleichzeitig eine Verbindung zur Welt der Kunst zu entwickeln.

    Little Girls – A few beautiful pictures of the book

    June 1, 2021 / 0 Comments

    Ever since the ancient Greeks sculpted the first kouros, children have been a source of inspiration for some of the world’s greatest artists. Whether portraits of their own children, friends, and family members, or a nostalgic psychological portrayal of the artist’s own youth, depictions of children in art remain arresting examples of an intersection between the picturesque innocence of childhood and the methodical work of adult artistry. In this delightful new puzzle book, children get a chance to see little boys and girls just like them as portrayed by great artists, learning about how children grew up throughout history while experiencing a genuine connection with works of artistic genius.

    Shelley’s Art Musings: Spotlight on Vincent Van Gogh

    March 26, 2020 / 0 Comments

    The world is a pretty glum place at the moment, isn’t it? COVID-19, social distancing, self-isolation and a media frenzy, which is enough to send the sanest of us to a brink of depression, which is probably making you look at things a little different. Appreciating smaller things, like the fact that spring is on the way and the first signs of life rejuvenation are in the air, or perhaps you are belated to wake up and the mornings are a little lighter. Depression was a common state for Van Gogh, which is very hard for anyone to understand the depths of another’s mental state, but as it is his birthday,…

    David Hockney Pulls Out His Mushroom Trip

    July 8, 2016 / 0 Comments

    With Amsterdam just a stone’s throw away from his native England, there’s no way David Hockney didn’t take weekend trips to gather a little inspiration. With his landscapes breathing and ever-so-subtly undulating, Hockney has, in his art work, rather astutely recreated the kind of mushroom trip that the majority of festival-goers revel in: a magical connection with those insanely charming and huggable trees. Seemingly familiar, the works trick the viewer into recalling memories of frolics in the woods (both authentic and false memories), the works play on vivid colour, scale and distance, and leading lines to push our psyches into the surreal. Reminiscent of A Scanner Darkly the line between…

    It’s a dedication from Tupac to Vincent van Gogh. Tupac felt very close to him. Here is a little quote from Tupac telling why he felt close to him: “Because nobody appreciated his work until he was dead. Now it’s worth millions. I feel close to him, how tormented he was. Marvin too. That’s how I was out there. I’m in jail now, but I’m free. My mind is free. The only time I have problems is when I sleep.” Starry Night Dedicated in Memory of Vincent van Gogh A creative heart, obsessed with satisfying This dormant and uncaring society u have given them the stars at night and u…

    Impressions du monde flottant

    April 28, 2016 / 0 Comments

    Le XVIIe siècle en Europe avait vu se propager la mode de l’Orient avec des objets décoratifs importés de Turquie et de Perse. Au XVIIIe, on se passionna davantage pour l’Extrême-Orient grâce aux missions jésuites qui en rapportèrent nombreuses « chinoiseries », porcelaines, éventails et laques délicates. De la fin du XIXe siècle au début du XXe, ce fût au tour du Japon. Un engouement nouveau qui gagna même, grâce au critique d’art et collectionneur français Philippe Burty, le nom de « Japonisme ». Le Japonisme toutefois a été plus qu’une mode. Où les précédentes tocades orientalistes n’allaient guère plus loin que la décoration des intérieurs de bourgeois fortunés, la fascination pour le Japon…

    梵高,重复

    April 20, 2016 / 0 Comments

    众所周知,梵高切掉了自己的耳朵,将枪弹打入自己的腹部而自杀,他是无可争议的疯狂艺术家。将这一形象与他疯狂的笔触和生动的色彩结合起来,我们并不意外地发现,他的艺术方法被看作是冲动的,有点暴力的。 所以,你可能会觉得惊讶,梵高其实花了很多时间仔细思考自己的作品,重新考虑他的风格和布局。他尤其是通过重复来实现的。你可能知道他的肖像画《邮递员鲁伦》,但你可能不知道的是这幅画有六张。 菲利普斯陈列馆在华盛顿的本届展会,专门探索梵高的无数次重复和它们在他的艺术中的作用。通常情况下,他首先画外景,然后在工作室重新设计和完善布局。例如,他两个版本的《修路者》(这也举办这次展会的由来)。有的时候,这似乎是艺术家制作另一个版本作为礼物,比如他的朋友鲁伦的肖像画。 当然,我们能从本次展会更加了解梵高,但馆长希望观众能学到怎样用自己的方式来接触艺术。放下对这个艺术家的先入之见,我们不得不重新审视,重新思考,并学会如何以不同的方式看待艺术。想要对世界上最著名艺术家之一的梵高有新的看法,赶紧在2014年2月2日之前去位于华盛顿的菲利普斯陈列馆。如果你错过了这次,展览将在克利夫兰美术馆展出,展出时间为2014年3月2日至2014年5月26日。 如果您想了解更多关于梵高的信息,查看Victoria Charles对于大师的深入看法http://ebook-gallery.com/en/2012/06/07/vincent-van-gogh/ 或者查阅我们的Mega Square系列http://ebook-gallery.com/en/2012/06/18/van-gogh/

    „So, und jetzt bitte mal husten.“ Woran denkt ihr? Richtig, Militärdienst! Diese hier aus Gründen des Jugendschutzes (es sind Hoden involviert!) nur angedeutete Anekdote wird mit meiner Generation aussterben. Um den Wehrdienst ist es nicht schade. Um den Zivildienst vielleicht schon irgendwie ein ganz kleines bisschen. Zum Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts jedenfalls entschied man in Frankreich per Los, wer eingezogen wurde. Ein gewisser Émile Bernard war 1888 unter den Glücklichen, sodass ihm sein Mentor Vincent van Gogh eines schönen Tages schrieb: „… iss gut, mache den Militärdienst gut, koitiere nicht zu viel.“ Ein Satz, den man gerne einmal selber unter einen Brief setzen würde, und ein Beweis dafür, dass im…

    Le 18 juillet 1944, le général S.S Tanz, héros de la campagne de Russie et nettoyeur de Varsovie, pénètre dans le musée de l’Orangerie à Paris. En effet, depuis 1940, les services allemands réquisitionnent les œuvres d’art, tant auprès des collectionneurs juifs que lors de pillages méthodiques. Dans ce musée, une salle est alors réservée à l’art « dégénéré » selon la définition nazie. Là se côtoient des tableaux de Toulouse-Lautrec, Chagall, Kandinsky et autres. Parmi ces chefs-d’œuvre, le général Tanz aperçoit un autoportrait de Van Gogh. A sa vue, le général est pris de sueur, son visage se tord, son équilibre se rompt, manquant de le faire chuter. « J’étais arrivé à…
