2606

 Some man sitting in a parc. There are a lot of those these days, when it finally starts to be some sort of nice weather. The people finally leave there houses, the parcs aren't empty anymore.

L'Ecole Superieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris. Seen from the inside it's just as messy as the average art school, even though the name tries to cover that. We arrived, we saw, and we took lots of stuff. Affiches from real life portraits (taken in rooms: 2 x 3 meters? ), about 50 dia pictures from Holland in the 70ties... We know the period because of the cars that are shown in the photos; a time where the Beetle car was a normal display in the environment of a city.

 The open door Film Festival in Saint Cloud. Everyone was covered in blankets, with homemade snacks (raspberry wine in our case) under the open sky. Most people actually cried during the display of E.T. .

SUMMERTIME

WEEKEND

Everyone is falling out the window at the centquatre.

Enjoying an - hum, let's say borrowed -  apple at the Design Fair.

Gerard Richter in Centre Pompidou;

not everyone seemed to enjoy the exhibition in the same way.

LATEST

The College des Bernardins exhibits the most hygienic installation of this moment. Michael Blazy has constructed a huge soap machine, that slowly bubbles an apparent energetic substance throughout each new day. Result: the classical surrounding of a church with a huge floating soap muddle.

                                                                                                    

                                                                                                                

Hyperrealistic painting - yes, this is a painting and not a photo - by Ulrich Lamsfuss. He has an exposition in the Templon Gallery in the Marais.

The famous Saatchi Gallery was very positive about this relatively unknown artist. Even though he is not known by a big crowd, his prestige is shown by the prices of his work. There are some paintings left to be sold, one picturing a stew with sausage mesured 10 x 10 cm is about 20 000 euros... A quite fancy thing to put on your chimney.
