Plastic: Art in an Era of Material Innovation May 09, 2015 - July 12, 2015   In the mid-twentieth century plastic was viewed as a material of infinite possibility. Artists began incorporating plastic into their work as technological and commercial development of the material flourished. Whether encouraged by industry, responding to a society seduced by synthetics, or excited by the inherent qualities of these new materials, artist created myriad works that showcased plastic’s diverse, expressive, and complex qualities. An object in plastic could take any form: thin, malleable plastics could be stitched together or spliced, hard plastics could be glued, colored, melted, or molded, and plastic objects could even be appropriated as signifiers of an increasingly superficial and materialistic society.   Plastic: Art in an Era of Material Innovation pre...

SANT JORDI?

RÊV’EN PAGES FÊTE LA SANT JORDI Actualités ,  Événements  |  0 comments Depuis le Moyen Âge, cette offrande de la rose a été perpétuée, surtout en terre catalane. Le mouvement littéraire de la Renaissance, pendant la deuxième moitié du xix e  siècle, fait de Sant Jordi le symbole de l’identité catalane. En 1926, l’écrivain et éditeur espagnol Vicent Clavel i Andrés, directeur d’ Editorial Cervantes , proposa aux libraires barcelonais d’instituer une fête pour soutenir et diffuser les livres. La date retenue fut d’abord le 7 octobre, avant d’être modifiée au 23 avril, afin de rendre hommage à l’écrivain le plus célèbre du pays, inhumé le 23 avril 1616, Miguel de Cervantes. Peu à peu, il est également devenu courant d’offrir également des livres à ses proches ce jour-là. À l’occasion de la journée mondiale du livre et du droit d’auteur, 450 libraires indépendants de France et de Belgique francophone créeront une ...

another clarification: "the panhandles of Texas and Oklahoma" ?

The term "panhandle" derives from the analogous part of a cooking pan, and its use is generally confined to the United States. A term used elsewhere is salient, derived from military salients. While similar to a peninsula in shape, a panhandle is not surrounded by water on three sides and connected to a geographical mainland. Instead, it is delimited by a land border on at least two sides and extends out from the larger geographical body of the administrative unit. more to read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panhandle

what exactly is the DUST BOWL ?

Dust Bowl From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_Bowl For other uses, see Dust Bowl (disambiguation). The Dust Bowl, also known as the Dirty Thirties, was a period of severe dust storms that greatly damaged the ecology and agriculture of the US and Canadian prairies during the 1930s; severe drought and a failure to apply dryland farming methods to prevent wind erosion (the Aeolian processes) caused the phenomenon. The drought came in three waves, 1934, 1936, and 1939–40, but some regions of the high plains experienced drought conditions for as many as eight years.[1] With insufficient understanding of the ecology of the plains, farmers had conducted extensive deep plowing of the virgin topsoil of the Great Plains during the previous decade; this had displaced the native, deep-rooted grasses that normally trapped soil and moisture even during periods of drought and high winds. The rapid mechanization of farm equipment, especially small gasoline tr...

A Short History of Magic Realism

A Short History of Magic Realism         Magic Realism developed as an art movement in the years after World War I . For many decades thereafter numerous artists throughout Europe and subsequently in the Americas crafted a representational art, mixed with elements of fantasy. This art was often typified by remarkable detail and sharp focus. Yet more importantly Magic Realism taps into emotional reservoirs within all of us. It tricks us by hiding unexpected or suggestive content in what at first might seem to be a common or ordinary scene. This article has been revised to add information and images.  Date: January 15, 2011.       ...

https://www.hugoboss.com/us/magazine/guggenheim-museum-new-york/50964.html From March 6 to May 13, the  Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum  in New York will be presenting the winner of the  HUGO BOSS PRIZE 2014 , Paul Chan. The Hong Kong-born artist who lives in New York is one of the most original and versatile artists of our times. He combines the most diverse techniques in his work with the greatest of ease, working with as much virtuosity in video and installation, as in the classic arts of drawing and painting. Chan’s multilayered works succeed in continually posing topical questions in a new and provocative way. For his exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum, Paul Chan has chosen the title of “Nonprojections for New Lovers,” and will be showing his “Nonprojections” – a work created since 2013 – for the first time in the USA. For this the 42-year-old has employed various elements including running video projectors which do not, however, project a direct image onto a su...
