Wael Shawkey exhibition at the Talbot Rice Gallery Edinburgh. These lovely glass puppets are wonderful, and there is a film made using them all. Pretty hard to get a decent photo of them though.
Lol thanks…I do think I’m gonna have fun with this book…my sis got it and at first I didn’t want it but then I saw the title and well…now I’m coloring ![]()
Had no idea there was an art thread on here so I must share my favorite oil painting.
Back when I was living in Pittsburgh, a couple of friends and I took a roadtrip to Baltimore. We hit up the Baltimore Museum of Art where they had a German Expressionism exhibit and I fell in love with this colorful gem. It’s called “The Circus”. Painted by Max Pechstein. I’m still kicking myself for not buying the print at their shop.
And I’m not sure if I’ll be pleased with a print I’ll find online.
As long as it’s engraved in my mind, I guess. ![]()

Currently on display in Oude Kerk a beautiful site specific installation (I think it’s beautiful anyway) by Korean artist Kimsooja. Has to be seen when the sun shines through the windows for the rainbow light effects.
Wow ..that is so wild. Love how the colors come alive when the sun hits it ![]()
What a meaningful exhibit! ‘What do we carry with us, what do we leave behind .. ‘
Happy for you that you caught the colours when they were so spectacular! Wow!!
And to think that Saskia
( Rembrandt’s wife, died 1642) and so many others are entombed in the floor.

Visited a Co Rentmeester retrospective today. Amsterdam born Life Magazine photographer. Hardly knew his name but man do I know and love his pictures.
Watts 1965
Vietnam 1965/1967
His photos of Japanese snow monkeys are edged in my memory.
He did lots of sports and advertising as well. Nike never paid him a penny for this image:
He did Marlboro man too!
@Mno Love these images, he certainly had the eye.
In my book that successfully stopped me smoking -“Stop smoking boot camp” by Allen Carr he states in that All 5 of the Marlbro men died from smoking related diseases. So pleased I dont smoke anymore.
Frida Kahlo, “El sueño (La cama),” or “The dream (The bed),” from 1940, brings the artist’s preoccupation with the border between sleep and death into focus.Credit…Banco de México Diego Rivera Frida Kahlo Museums Trust, Mexico,
