The Hand of God | MillesGården, Stockholm

$
0
0
The Hand of God was one of Milles' last works before his death. A small man is standing on a large hand. He is looking upwards and his body is tense, with fingers splayed. The man is balancing on the index finger and thumb of the large hand, a feat that seems difficult enough in itself, but his exertion is of another nature. He is gazing with rapt attention at something in the sky, as though he were receiving a message or taking part in a dialogue. Carl Milles worked on The Hand of God from 1949-1953. This was one of three major commissions he received in the 1950s and completed before his death in 1955. The original was made for the Swedish city of Eskilstuna, and today it can also be seen in other places around the world, for instance in Tokyo, Melbourne and Beijing.

Fallen angels | Jack Vettriano, 1951

$

Luci soffuse, ombre morbide, figure romantiche e piene di tensione sessuale contengono il mistero narrativo delle opere del pittore Scozzese Jack Hoggan, noto come Jack Vettriano, uno degli artisti di maggior successo dell'era moderna. I soggetti di Vettriano sono prevalentemente donne in atteggiamenti seducenti o in compagnia di uomini maturi. In tutte le sue opere domina un carattere umano che interagisce con una sensualità minacciosa. Oggi è il pittore vivente più venduto e riprodotto nel mondo. Si calcola che siano stati venduti tre milioni di poster e stampe dei suoi quadri. E sono proprio i soggetti evocativi di un mondo antico e di sentimenti che oggi sembrano perduti, l'eleganza, il romanticismo, l'erotismo raffinato, a determinare il suo successo.

La pittrice Americana, artista auto-didatta, Karen Dupréè nata in California e ha iniziato a dipingere all’età di 9 anni. Le sue prime opere avevano per oggetto la raffigurazione dei cavalli che si è poi estesa alle figure, ai paesaggi e alle nature morte. La Dupréè dotata della particolare abilità di ricreare un gioco di luce sia nella natura che manufatti che dipinge. Ispirandosi ai pittori del IXX secolo che sfidarono i riferimenti ideali dell’arte, la Dupré tenta un approccio simile attraverso i suoi innumerevoli stili.

Paper clothing, in the form of women's dresses and other clothes made from disposable cellulose fabric, was a short-lived fashion novelty item in the 1960s United States. Individual paper and papier-mâché clothes and accessories (especially masquerade costumes) were used as early as the 19th century. But mass-produced paper fashion was invented by the American Scott Paper Company in 1966 as a marketing stunt.

Il talento scultoreo della Malvina Hoffman divenne particolarmente famoso con le sue rappresentazioni della leggendaria ballerina russa Anna Pavlova 1881-1931. L'ispirazione della Hoffman per creare questi pannelli nacque dopo aver assistito ad una performance dei ballerini russi Anna Pavlova e Mikhail Mordkin nel balletto 'Baccanale Autunnale' Op. 67 di Alexander Glazunov a Londra. Dopo il ritorno a Parigi, la Hoffman convinse il suo mentore di permetterle di lavorare sulla serie, piuttosto che concentrarsi sulle commissioni ritratto più ordinarie.

Finger / hand painting is now fine art at the hands of 28 year old American painter Iris Scott. Scott creates vibrant paintings with a unique, stylistic Finger painting process, using surgical gloves and placing the oil paint directly on her hands. Rapidly applying thick oil color with several points of contact rather than one Scott can be classified as a modern Impressionist..with a twist. Her inspiration is found on the road as her composition-hunting continues to take her abroad. Recently back from Thailand, Iris is now finished making her newest collection of 10+ Thai originals (released March 16). Her next trip, Nicaragua, which she leaves for on March 17, holds the promise of new inspiration. Six weeks later when Iris returns to Washington she will dive yet again into a new body of work about Central America.

Ad ogni incontro con la primavera
non so star quieta - sorge il desiderio
antico, un ansia mista ad attesa,
una promessa di bellezza
ed è una gara di tutto il mio essere
con qualcosa che in essa si nasconde.
Quando la primavera svanisce, v'è il rimorso
di non averla guardata abbastanza...
