transforming the common > an art that explores the variations of a single element with infinite possibilities. It exposes city blocks of brooklyn, manhattan, queens, and the bronx… and it must have been hours of fun to cut out!

Levi van Veluw : Landscape, Dots et Material Transfer

November 3rd, 2009 by msalou

Le travail du photographe Néerlandais Levi van Veluw et ses autoportraits sur les thèmes de la nature, des textures ou des matériaux est tout simplement bluffant. À la fois photographe et metteur en scène de ses créations, il apporte un souffle nouveau à la photographie. Le soucis du détail et l’émotion que dégage chacune de ses créations ne vous laisseront pas indifférents.

November 2nd, 2009 by msalou

Here are some pictures of a beautiful 103-year-old mansion in Rhode Island’s Narragansett Bay…I just love the feeling you have when you take a closer look at these pics, you suddenly notice you need a last week-end on the coast before winter…via boston.com

Oskar Fischinger > stopmotion from 1934, in color.

November 2nd, 2009 by ntimm

Oskar Fischinger > Muratti Greift ein! (Germany, 1934)

Fischinger developed a complicated stop-motion technique to show the cigarettes played sports, capitalizing on the Olympic fever in Berlin.

Oskar Fischinger > Composition in blue (Germany, 1935)

This is an abstract film in which every motion is in strict synchronization with music, so the description must be read in terms of the overall impression it gives.

OSKAR FISCHINGER is one of the most important (and lately overlooked) avant-garde animator and painter.
An article from the Tate etc. UK summarizes Fischinger’s filmography very well.

BLACK RIVER FESTIVAL

October 27th, 2009 by msalou

Le festival BLACK RIVER a commencé ce 22 Octobre en Autriche, à Vienne et expose le travail de plusieurs artistes incluant KNOW HOPE, MARK JENKINS ou encore AAKASH NIHALANI (dont nous avions déjà parlé dans ce précédent post). On apprend aussi que le festival tient son nom du Danube : pas à cause de la qualité de l’eau, non, non, mais bien à cause de l’origine du 2nd plus long fleuve d’Europe. Il prend sa source en Forêt Noire et se jette dans la Mer….Noire).

Quelques exemples en images et vidéos.
