Exploring a pivotal moment in art history, we delve into Paul Sérusier's "The Talisman," painted in 1888. This renowned piece is celebrated not just for its vibrant color and abstract style, but for its profound influence on the Nabis movement, which sought to express the artist's inner feelings through bold and simplified forms. "The Talisman" is a small wooden panel where Sérusier, under the guidance of Paul Gauguin at Pont-Aven, distilled a landscape into patches of pure color, embracing the ethos of painting from emotion rather than replicating nature. This approach marked a departure from traditional forms and a step towards modernism, emphasizing that art could venture beyond visual representation to evoke a feeling. Sérusier’s vision was radical; he encouraged a departure from the meticulous reproduction of nature to focus on the emotional resonance of simple forms and colors. "The Talisman" serves as a literal and metaphorical palette of this vision, its legacy seen in how it guided the Nabis and later modernists in exploring the abstract potential of art. Despite its pivotal role, Sérusier's shift led to controversy. Critics of the time contested this move away from representational art, challenging the legitimacy of abstraction in conveying reality. Sérusier and his cohorts faced skepticism for their avant-garde leanings, a tension that underscored the broader shifts in the art world of the late 19th century. #PaulSérusier #TheTalisman #ArtHistory #NabisMovement #PaulGauguin #PontAven #Modernism #AbstractArt #ArtisticVision #FrenchArt #1888Artworks #Painting #ArtGallery #ArtisticInnovation #ColorTheory #ArtCritique #VisualArts #HistoricArt #ArtControversy #ArtEducation #ArtEvolution #Impressionism #PostImpressionism #ArtCollector #MuseumCollection #CulturalHeritage #ArtisticExpression #VisualCulture

Thx for the review !! At the Kou Gallery in Rome the first solo exhibition in Italy by the Norwegian artist Kenneth Blom; Massimo Scaringella, Curator of the event together with Luisa Catucci, continues to surprise us by bringing echoes of distant cultures into our national panorama: from the Africa of the Biennale to the boundless lands of the great North. Art thus demonstrates that it has no cultural barriers, it highlights its essence of philosophy expressed through pigments and brushes, chromatic balances . The exhibition has a seemingly simple title: “Escape” and presents a series of works created specifically for this occasion. At first glance, Fuga could represent an introspective and voluntary need to move away; or - more technically - a Vanishing Point, a structural element of the angular perspectives that Kenneth Blom so frequently uses. Personally I believe that Fuga has a musical root for the Artist: thematic idea proposed in infinite variations, counterpoint, polyphony of elements that overlap without merging in a sparkle of lines and colours, perspectives and anatomy. The Curators, with great precision, write: “Blom's visual language, distinguished by its radicality, develops through a mélange of flat and sinuous forms with expressive deformations of the human body, accurate color schemes and a judicious use of architectural symbolism, which However, it proposes a certain temporality, more cyclical than chronological, for our existence. Thus his world and the universe merge, in this way, a kind of communion is established between man and the cosmos." it refers to the great Romanesque art, to the sculptures of the months and seasons, to the sources of youth, to the ages of man depicted in Gothic courtesan allegories. They highlight the symbolic use of architecture which is not a place of narrative action but a social universe where human relationships become concrete and physical: the spaces of meeting, abandonment, reflection, distrust, mere transit. It is necessary to approach Kenneth Blom's art with attention and respect: it is so apparently similar to our culture - but substantially different - that there is a risk of a distorted reading. The Nordic perception of life is more natural, much less cathartic and anthropocentric: birth and death belong to the normality of existence, to the magnificent flow of the long boreal winters and cold summers where everyone's festive frenzy is concentrated in short and touching encounters. All around the breath of the world that neither welcomes nor rejects: it leaves men free within the limits of their own limited strength. The spirit of the North is intrinsically evangelical: forgiveness, acceptance, individual expiation, the direct relationship between the soul and God. Without intermediaries, without family cages, aware of being the heartbeat of a moment, a simple note in the symphony of the seasons: this I believe is the synthesis of Kenneth Blom's art.

Walking into an Anselm Kiefer exhibition is a deeply impactful experience that simply makes you stop in your tracks in sheer wonder and amazement. Anselm Kiefer’s use of scale, texture, alchemy, biblical and historical references touching upon complicit guilt are always astounding and awe inspiring. Anselm Kiefer's art deeply intertwines with alchemy, symbolizing transformation and creation. His works, often monumental, use alchemical symbols to explore themes of history, memory, and decay. This approach allows Kiefer to address complex subjects like German history and the Holocaust, transforming materials and symbols to reflect on cultural and personal regeneration. Alchemy, for Kiefer, becomes a metaphor for artistic creation and the transformative power of art. His use and technique of “impasto” is an important aspect of his work, as it adds to the texture and dimensionality of his paintings. Impasto is a technique of applying thick layers of paint, often with a palette knife, creating a sculptural effect on the canvas. Writing Credit: Mignon Marshall Article Courtesy: Ocula

𝐀𝐑𝐓 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: We live in an ironic world. As much as it seems money and power make the world go round, let’s venture to say art has a thing or a million, to do with why the world doesn’t completely stop. Seems like an exaggeration? Consider this. Art has been around since the beginning of time, since before society was calling art, well…art. Perhaps, people didn’t view these icons as art but it’s hard to take away their power. From The Pyramids of Giza (the great pyramid and tallest is around 481 ft), hieroglyphics, and The Great Sphinx of Giza we laid eyes are the wonders of art-making. The Sphinx, by the way, according to Tikkanen is actually the most renowned recognizable symbol of the greatest works of sphinx art. It was made of limestone dating back to 2575-c to 2465 BCE. Sculptures of this stature represented the wealth and power of civilizations. And in the ancient period, Egypt was the richest and most powerful. These status symbols are similar to the way art collections often have their ties to the wealthy today. Fast forward a bit and you’ll recognize some of these famed paintings, the Mona Lisa painted by Leonardo Di Vinci in 1503, the Sistine Chapel ceiling painted by Michelangelo completed in 1512, and later works coined as the first examples of fine art in the 20th century circa the 1900s; The Weeping Woman and Self-Portrait by Pablo Picasso and The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dali circa 1931. So, whether a piece of art turned into a monument respected the world over, the fact of the matter is art told civilizations that came after that aphorism “ We Were Here”. Art is that symbol of life that we simply cannot escape and quite frankly may not want to. This is the way humanity has always left its signature. Its marks… and often its lessons of what not to do. Art is worth buying, first because it’s worth creating. It is the voice of civilizations past that reverberates like supreme surround sound into the futures we may not be around to comment on. Ask yourself, what having a voice means to you. Now, apply it to art.

The Chronosphere is starting a micro-learning series called Art&Fact. Here’s one on Goya’s mastery of the Aquatint technique. It’s a great way to soak up some knowledge on art with a great story behind it. If you enjoy these, please comment and tell us what artifact you’d like to see featured!
In the second half of the 18th century, an Innovative technique was developed that truly expanded the possibilities for image-making in Europe. These were the Aquatints. The Spanish artist Francisco Goya understood to perfection the tones of darkness of the Aquatints creating original works of art in print form. Goya's use of aquatint was revolutionary in conveying deep emotional and psychological states. His prints often evoke feelings of fear, despair, and bewilderment. If you want to see all of Goya's Aquatint work and much more, visit us at the Chronosphere #digitalmuseum #museum #museumfromhome #franciscogoya #goya #art #thethirdofmay #painting #diegovelazquez #elgreco #diegorivera #artemisiagentileschi #georgiaokeeffe #henrirousseau #edvardmunch #markrothko #jacqueslouisdavid #pietmondrian #titian #closedbutopen #art #culturedoesntstop #contemporaryart #digamus #instamuseum #digitalart #museenentdecken #exhibition #arch #stayathome #digital #kunstkijken #virtualmuseum #museumvisit #kunst #museumsofinstagram #freiburg #artlovers #museumsandchill #culture #artlover #arte #museumlover #hedendaagsekunst
