'Raw Dialect' is a series of experimental ceramic pieces which explores the behaviour of clay as a natural material with a rather unpredictable technique. Simona Skiriūtė has developed a technique which is based on a mobile composition of plaster panels, which is readjusted for the series. As clay is introduced to the composition, the materials communicate, creating a common 'dialect', which is shaped by the materials' collapsing, leaking in between the plaster panels or responding to pressure. 'Raw Dialect' is a material research which references the utilitarian architectural forms captured by Hilla and Bernd Becher—forms that are designed to be useful or practical rather than attractive. As a result, Skiriūtė's approach explores the raw aesthetics ofbrutalism in ceramics. Discover more about this project in the link or visit us during the @dutchdesignweek, @graduationshow23 at Heuvel Galerie 133, 5611 DK Eindhoven, 21-29 October 2023.

I am fascinated by the industrial landscapes we've crafted - intricate networks of engineering that bring us modern comforts and facilitate our journeys. These complex systems, born from human ingenuity, remind us of the delicate equilibrium we must maintain between transforming our world and preserving the planet's health. This image, part of a series I made in Rotterdam Harbour, showcases the mesmerising beauty inherent in these industrial scenes. It's not just the grandeur of the structures that strikes me but also the interplay of colours, the dance of light, and the intricate composition that bring an unexpected aesthetic appeal to an industrial scene. Do you also see the beauty here? #photography #documentary #industry #art #FineArt #LandScape

From our special exhibition “Mirror of the World - Spotlights on Seascapes from three Centuries”: Attributed to Wouter Knijff (c. 1606-1694), Boats at a Jetty, c. 1640, oil on wood - Internationales Maritimes Museum Hamburg, inv. no. K-849 The liberality in the Netherlands has a great impact on the subjects depicted in the visual arts. In the rest of Europe, there is a stricter canon of images, i.e. an idea of what is considered worthy of depiction. In Holland, however, people freed themselves from these guidelines early on, and so sometimes vulgar pictorial themes such as drunkenness and prostitution were put on canvas. The rendering of these subjects can also be subtle, as in this painting: the contemplative-looking river scene is flanked on the left by two men who are outside a tavern. One of them is taking a large sip of beer. He stands in stark contrast to the noble patrons who are heading for the shore. Landscape paintings like this are popular in the 17th century because they are infused with a sense of humour and appeal to those prospective buyers who may not have experienced a high level of education, but are still able to decode the narrative. The attribution of this painting to the painter and art dealer Wouter Knijff is based on stylistic similarities. Only close observation reveals the signature „VG“, which refers to the famous landscape painter Jan van Goyen (1596-1656). However, since the latter painted more tonally, with distinctly reduced colour accents, and the architecture in less detail, it can be ruled out that it comes from the hand of the great master. Already during Van Goyen‘s lifetime, imitations appeared, as they fetched high prices on the market. There is a second version, similar except for a few differences, which is attributed to Gillis Peeters the Elder (1612-1653). That painting bears the false signature „VGoyen 1644“.

Staple art, also known as staple mosaic or stapling art, is a unique form of art that involves using staples as a medium to create images, designs, and textures. Artists create intricate and visually appealing artworks by arranging individual staples in specific patterns or by layering them to produce detailed compositions. Staple art is a creative and unconventional way to transform a mundane office supply item into a medium for artistic expression. Staple art can be found in galleries and exhibitions, and some artists sell their creations as unique pieces of art. It offers an alternative perspective on everyday objects, turning an ordinary office supply into a medium for creativity and artistic expression.

Shadows have always fascinated me both philosophically and photographically. For this reason I chose to discuss their role in my #University dissertation. I often photograph people, environments and buildings precisely when light and shadows create a sharp contrast. Let me know what you think of this photo of mine. © Alan Petasecca Donati _ #mywork #art #architecture #minimal #photography #light #shadow #geometry

🎨 Dive into the ethereal beauty of "Attersee" by Gustav Klimt, a clear exemplar of his shift from his ornate gold phase to landscapes filled with unique insight and tranquility. Captured in 1900, this painting snapshots Attersee, the largest lake in the Salzkammergut region of Austria—a favorite retreat for Klimt. Dominated by a reflection of sky and tree silhouettes, its style straddles realism and abstraction. The canvas is marked by a rhythmic play of colors, meticulously arranged to evoke palpable calmness and grace. Through his keen observation of the natural world, Klimt manipulates light and hue to transport viewers directly into the serene Austrian countryside. Klimt's artistic vision in "Attersee" is synonymous with innovation. He uses a flattened perspective and limits human presence to emphasize nature's overwhelming beauty and power. This marked a significant pivot from his earlier, figure-centric paintings, demonstrating his versatility and ceaseless evolution as an artist. The controversies that Klimt faced were primarily during his earlier works, laden with eroticism and symbolic imagery which often drew public and critical ire. However, his landscape works, such as "Attersee," were received with less hostility, allowing the subtleties of his techniques and his profound connection with nature to shine through more prominently, unshadowed by scandal. #GustavKlimt #Attersee #AustrianArt #ArtHistory #LandscapeArt #Symbolism #FineArt #ArtisticVision #ArtCollector #GalleryView #ColorTheory #ArtCritique #ModernArt #19thCenturyArt #ArtisticInnovation #NatureArt #ArtLovers #MuseumCollection #ArtisticStyle #CulturalHeritage #Artstagram #InstaArt #ArtEducation #HistoricalArt #LakeAttersee #ArtWorld #Masterpiece #ArtExhibition #PaintingAnalysis

DAIM Retrospective - 35 Years Graffiti. Exhibition: May 2024 - January 2025, Wood Art Institute, Hamburg In the beginning was the word. In the summer of 1989, 17-year-old Mirko Reisser and two friends spray-painted the five letters RIGHT on a distribution box. The term alone is a provocation. After all, the damage to property - at least from a legal perspective - is anything but "right". Today, 35 years later, Mirko Reisser still writes his artist name DAIM in the style of a classic graffiti writer. At the same time, however, Reisser redefines writing to a certain extent by transforming his pseudonym into complex sculptures. Sometimes this is to be understood literally. Reisser has also made forays into sculpture, carving the word DAIM out of wood or casting it out of concrete - and in this way transforming the two-dimensional medium of writing into three-dimensionality. As a rule, however, Reisser creates an optical illusion of physicality when he paints his name on canvases, in exhibition spaces or on building facades. He plays with light and shadow with such virtuosity that the impression is created that the beams, curves and polyhedrons, which are interlocked to form complex figures, leave the surface and actually extend into the room.

🎨 Featured Work: Provence Landscape by Henri Edmond Cross, 1898 Dive into the vibrant hues of Henri Edmond Cross's "Provence Landscape" from 1898, an exemplary piece of the pointillist movement that Cross helped pioneer. In this painting, which is a watercolor on paper, the artist uses small, distinct dots of color applied in patterns to form an image, a technique which set the stage for modernism. This artwork captures the luminous essence of the Provence region with its rolling hills, lush vegetation, and vivid colors, underscored by Cross's masterful use of light and shadow, illustrating his commitment to both naturalism and symbolic expressiveness. 🎨 Artistic Vision: Cross's artistic style emphasizes vibrant color schemes and meticulous attention to the interplay of light, a vision that sought to evoke an emotional response and capture the serene beauty of the natural landscape. His commitment to Neo-Impressionism is evident in his methodical approach to pointillism, which added an almost ethereal quality to his scenes. 🎨 Controversies: While largely celebrated today, the Neo-Impressionist movement, of which Henri Edmond Cross was a crucial part, was initially met with criticism. Critics argued that the pointillist technique interfered with the spontaneity and authenticity of capturing the moment, a principle highly esteemed by traditional Impressionists. This controversy stirred robust debate about the direction of modern art at the turn of the 20th century. 🏷️ #HenriEdmondCross #ProvenceLandscape #Pointillism #NeoImpressionism #FrenchArt #ArtHistory #1890sArt #ModernArt #ArtisticVision #Naturalism #ControversiesInArt #Luminism #ColorTheory #ArtCollector #GalleryView #CulturalHeritage #ArtExhibition #MuseumCollection #ArtsEducation #ImpressionismVsNeoImpressionism #ArtisticDebate #HistoricArtworks #VisualArts #Masterpiece #FineArt #Painter #HistoricArtist #ArtLovers #ArtHistorian

Light is a very delicate material that sometimes seems very fragile because it needs to be. Throughout my career, I have photographed some temples in which I have always felt that the light was part of creating a prayer space where the faithful can communicate with God. In that sense, as a photographer I know that I should not alter the density of this light as an energy – even if it is very scarce for my camera – because that would not be correct or respectful. I don't have to add any light of my own, I can only contemplate the one available there to know how I will adapt to it: how much I will find, what it will be like, how it will be distributed and with what color temperature. When I work with the camera I always try to go unnoticed: when I photograph a temple I also want to be invisible. This is a detail of the altar in the oratory designed by the Catalan architect Josep Maria Jujol at the beginning of the 20th century in Can Negre, near #Barcelona #photography #architecture #architecturalphotography #heritage
