CHECK OUT http://www.cremeguides.com/en/about-creme-guides-2/ The city guide  creme guides  is a digital showroom for our very own favorites in Europe’s metropolises like Berlin, Hamburg, Copenhagen or Zurich. A selection of extraordinary places, beautiful things and mentionable locals. The contents are strictly selected and show only what we find to be noteworthy and recommendable. Consider this a platform for praising the good things much rather than a forum for critical reviews. If we don’t approve of something, it doesn’t even reach these pages.

let's be a tourist in NYC do not mis restaurant week.. Twice a year, in January/February and June/July, there is a unique  opportunity to experience some of New York City's finest restaurants  for a fraction of the usual price. Throughout the city, restaurants participate  in "Restaurant Week" where they offer a three-course lunch for $25  (& some even offer dinner for $38).  Restaurant Week is a great opportunity to try out a restaurant that may  usually be out of your budget, or test some new restaurants with a little  less financial risk. Check out my  tips for enjoying Restaurant Week . http://gonyc.about.com/cs/restaurants/a/restaurantweek.htm read NYTimes travel section http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02/23/travel/36-hours-in-upper-manhattan.html?_r=0

ON the Rue de Rivoli, one building stands out amid the busy boutiques and department stores. Inside a colorful interior, the place buzzes with shoppers and tourists — and young people covered in paint. Paris Travel Guide Go to the Paris Travel Guide » Art Interest Guide Go to the Art Interest Guide » Multimedia Map Paris, France This is  59 Rivoli , the latest of  Paris ’s legalized  art  squats. Previously owned by the Crédit Lyonnais bank and then abandoned, the six-story, mid-19th-century Haussmann era building (59, rue de Rivoli, First Arrondissement; no phone;  59rivoli.org ) was taken over by a group of young rebellious artists in 1999. Despite or possibly because of its illegal status, tourists soon came flowing in to see their work. In 2006, as part of a citywide effort to legitimize popular but technically illegal art venues, the space was bought, closed and renovated by the Paris city hall for 10 million e...

"La maison de celle qui peint" à Pont de l'étoile est sans doute une des œuvres les plus remarquables de l'art singulier, elle peut être comparée au célèbre "Palais idéal" du facteur Cheval. C'est une "maison-atelier" peinte et décorée de manière insolite. Danielle Jacqui qui a réalisé cette œuvre exceptionnelle, vous fera découvrir ses trésors : tableaux, broderies, céramiques, sculptures...qui la classent parmi les artistes les plus étonnants de son époque. A l’initiative du 1er Festival d’Art Singulier de Roquevaire en 1990, Danielle Jacqui est reconnue internationalement et a notamment exposé à l’American Visionary Art Museum de Baltimore, aux États-Unis.

Les tressages de François Rouan  LE CATEAU-CAMBRESIS - De Supports/Surfaces à Matisse… François Rouan, né en 1943, s’est d’abord fait connaître par sa communauté de pensée avec Viallat ou Dezeuze, animateurs du groupe Supports/Surfaces, qui remettaient en cause la toile traditionnelle. Elaborant sa propre technique dite de tressage, où il combine des bandes de papier qui font office de fils de chaîne et de trame, Rouan n’a jamais cessé d’être proche d’artistes comme Matisse ou Hantaï. Le premier est une influence marquante depuis ses tout premiers « papiers découpés » des années 1965-66. Quarante années d’évolution, où se croisent désormais la vidéo, la photographie, le dessin, montrent que la figure, sans jamais devenir pleinement reconnaissable, est de plus en plus tapie dans ces combinaisons complexes de couleurs et de découpes. •  François Rouan  est exposé au musée départemental Matisse, du 3 juillet au 18 septembre 2011.

Chillida, homme de fer  SAINT-PAUL-DE-VENCE – C’est une histoire de fidélité : Antonio Chillida (1924-2002) a été le plus jeune artiste exposé lors de l’inauguration de la fondation Maeght en 1964. Près d’un demi-siècle plus tard, alors qu’il est lui-même décédé et que son parc de sculptures au pays Basque espagnol est en difficulté (ouvert en 2000 près de San Sebastián, il est fermé au public depuis le 1er janvier 2011), ce grand ami des Maeght bénéficie d’une grande rétrospective en 150 œuvres. On y voit évidemment les monumentales  Stèles  et  Enclumes  en fer de ce « sculpteur devenu forgeron » (selon les mots de Gaston Bachelard), qui a toujours accordé beaucoup d’importance à la création pour l’espace public. Mais aussi toutes les autres facettes de son art : dessins, terres chamottées, reliefs en bois, Torse  en pierre,  Hommage à la mer  en albâtre jusqu’aux dessins des dernières années, baptisés  Gravitations , des encres sur papiers...
