The free exhibition will showcase a series of major recent works never before shown together in London. Constructed from highly reflective stainless steel, the giant curved mirror surfaces will create illusory distortions of the surroundings and will be visible across large distances, creating new vistas in this famous and much-loved setting. The sculptures will be sited to contrast and reflect the changing colours, foliage and weather in Kensington Gardens. Despite their monumental scale, the works appear as pure reflection of their surroundings: the sky, trees, water, wildlife and changing seasons. The distortions in the works' mirror-like surfaces call into question the viewers' relationship to both the work itself and the surrounding environment.</b></span></span></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

They've just looked like shit..<br />
either it's time to change pencils( yeah good excuse)<br />
paper quality's not thick enough( other good one)<br />
or my paw's just not feeling it..<br />
So I've been going about London looking for a good art store,and to my surprise(so surprising of course for London)the prices are insane and I used to think Paris' famous Graphigro store was expensive!<br />
That's something I never really understood,why art stores are sooo expensive when most artists are shnorers (*poor) So I'm finally starting to understand why people paint on their bedspreads,walls,asses, mothers and such..<br />
In a way these prices are pushing us towards creativity and change!<br />
I guess art stores really sell to the bored housewife trying to become an artist or the students( such cliches but cliches always start with a truth!)<br />
I digress,<br />
So I'm not struggling to the point of painting on baguettes(good idea though) and I found some great material,including watercolors..which I've always been fond of..anything looks good when you use them..so in my next posts I'll be showing you some watercolors and my regular pencil scribbles<br />
and I'll see what the crystal ball tells me..should I continue in the path of scribbles? or go back to painting..?<br />
I definitely won't be hitting the oil though,I'm too insane for it (topic for another discussion)<br />
I'll be showing you as well my latest sculptures that I've abandoned since October..<br />
ohh I know you're excited and sick as hell of seeing my old stuff!<br />
<br />
<br />
I shall leave this post with a great song and some tasty Blues men scribbles by R.Crumb<br />

I love art but there's so much I just don't get,and I'm sure you feel the same.It can almost push us to hate art or think it's society's biggest ripoff.Art is what you want it to be.So if you're looking for a pair of glasses into the art world..I suggest you try another shitty blog,site or actually move your ass to Florence or Paris.<br />
Another thing,I find it absolutely obnoxious these clans in the art world.People that are against contemporary art,people against classical art etc etc..I won't be imposing any opinions..<br />
<br />
ok,now that I've finished my BS I want to tell you about George Dureau..<br />
I have no idea how popular he's been in his lifetime but came across his work in a gay magazine (best way to find pictures of good looking men) and found his work quite similar to Joel Peter Witkin's..that I love more than anything,well as much as diet coke and cigs..and that's a lot.<br />
<br />
George Dureau has worked his whole life in New Orleans,he's considered a "classical romantic"<br />
he works in different medias:paintings,drawings sculptures and photography,what struck me most was his photography of men.<br />
<br />
these are a few of his pictures:<br />

It's understandable if you don't appreciate this photography,it can be dark,shocking,provocative or just plain depressing for certain people..<br />
What I do enjoy about it though is the fact that the people in these pictures probably live difficult lives.People trying to look away from them in the street,see them as handicapped,lost or messed up and these photographers make them beautiful and immortalize them.<br />
What I like as well is that there's no photoshop used in them..I feel as though photoshop and numeric photography has made photography too easy..I don't know anything about it but it's the feeling I get..Trai and Avahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11319337565480826731noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3366165009396695618.post-65708891586268239772011-01-09T14:04:00.000-08:002011-01-09T14:04:37.882-08:00The Art of Jean-Luc Moerman<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; line-height: 16px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #fce5cd;"><br />
We are familiar with artists that use tattoo art and apply it on found images, or in this case, fashion spreads. Dr Lakra uses a similar philosophy. But we were intrigued this morning by the art of Belgian artist Jean-Luc Moerman, who takes the idea of body marking and body art and applies it to contemporary female, and male, icons.|<br />
<br />
Nothing like the oddity of seeing Audrey Hepburn with tattoo imagery on her body. </span></span></span><br />

Ziegler-Haynes was aesthetically inspired by food styling from the '70s, cheap restaurants, and cafeteria-quality fare. She sifted through hundreds of public records (information leading up to inmates' executions is posted online, too), found 24 compelling subjects, and re-created their last requests. The shots, depicted from the diner's vantage point, range from a black olive (a symbol of peace) to birthday cake and pizza. Without forgiving these convicts of their actions, Ziegler-Haynes begs us to take a a closer look at their psyches while providing an inside glimpse at the conflicting gesture of the last meal. "It's eerie to cook for someone who's dead, not to mention someone who's been put to death for killing another person," says Ziegler-Haynes. "I'm by no means excusing the deplorable acts that it took to land these men on Death Row—I'm merely taking a closer look at the human condition."</span></span></span></span></h1><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #313737; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal;"></span></span><br />

Our last post is almost two months old and we haven't even finished(started?) our mustache theme competition..<br />
what can I say,the French are lazy fuckers who use up all their energy to complain or criticize..I am so getting lapidated when I go back to Paris..<br />
<br />
So I've been in London for a couple of weeks,and still separated from my beloved sculpture studio in Paris..I have no art material besides this left paw,printer paper and these two gnarled no2 pencils.(my personal advice,never use an eraser,you'll never be satisfied with your drawing and never finish it,and if forces you to get better,I encourage even more so to use ink,pens,bics,markers,rapidographs)<br />
I've also noticed,living with females, a lot of shit magazines laying around, and the stupidity of the articles still amaze me..so I try my best to focus on the images and reproduce some.I'll be making many many more reproductions..I truly get a kick out of it,been doing old portraits,pictures from criminal magazines from the 50's,and some portraits of the people around me..I'll post some of them here hoping this will make up for my terrible tardiness on the blog..how shameful..bad bad girl!!!!<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> I can understand not liking Heavy metal music but the illustrations and work behind these album covers are amazing,I might even say insane.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> The first artist I want to talk about is Paul Romano,he's done artwork for metal bands such as :</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> Death by Stereo, Animosity, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Godflesh</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> and Turmoil but the one I want to show today is for the band</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Mastodon( a very good band by the way) his work it seems is part digital and I can't tell what the rest is</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">(I know,how unprofessional)</span><br />
