Artists Protest Jeff Koons’s Monument to Paris Terror Victims. Artists and gallerists have written an open letter, published in the French newspaper Libération, calling for the city of Paris not to install Jeff Koons’s sculpture Bouquet of Tulips (2016) outside of the Museum of Modern Art.
The artwork is intended as a monument to the 2015 terror attacks in the city, composed of bronze and aluminium, it appears as a giant hand clutching a bouquet of flowers, in a reference to the Statue of Liberty. The letter protests the work as inappropriate and financially reckless, and laments the absence of an open call for a proper monument.
‘We appreciate gifts, but free, unconditional, and without ulterior motives,’ they said. While Koons intended his sculpture as a gift, the production and installation costs were not included. Private donations have financed the sculpture’s EUR€3m million price tag, but the taxpayer will be forced to fund ground reinforcement requirements. Oh wow.

It is believed that she was a wedding gift by Jean de Joyeuse to his wife in 1518. The house of Joyeuse intermarried with French royalty and according to Ean Begg this Black Madonna "has more associations with the aims of the Merovingian blood-line in the 16th and 17th centuries than any other Black Virgin. "(1) I suppose this fact is interesting to those who think that the Black Madonnas are a secret disguise for Mary Magdalene, the spouse of Christ who bore his child, from whom the Merovingians descended. Personally, as I explain in more detail under "Thuret" and in my article on "Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene", I'm not impressed with this story. Our Lady of Peace - Wikipedia.

Notre Dame de Bonne Délivrance, located in the wealthy Parisian suburb of Neuilly-sur-Seine, is one of the two Black Virgins I saw this time last year when I spent a week in Paris. She is an utterly charming example of the genre, perhaps the most graceful I have seen; she's definitely one of if not the blackest. Her chapel is a tidy design, with clean lines and a delicate palette. Let's face it, French churches tend to be dark, damp and gloomy affairs.
This statue is fortunate to be found in such a well-maintained spot, and regularly open to visitors. One of these windows pictures a nobleman in prayer before the Virgin and in this window.

JOEL AUGUSTUS ROGERS (September 6, 1880–March 26, 1966) was a Jamaican-American author, journalist, and historian who contributed to the history of Africa and the African diaspora, especially the history of African Americans in the United States.
His research spanned the academic fields of history, sociology and anthropology. He challenged prevailing ideas about race, demonstrated the connections between civilizations, and traced African achievements. He was one of the greatest popularizers of African history in the twentieth century. Rogers addresses issues such as the lack of scientific support for the idea of race, the lack of black history being told from a black person’s perspective, and the fact of intermarriage and unions among peoples throughout history. A respected historian and gifted lecturer, Rogers was a close personal friend of the Harlem-based intellectual and activist Hubert Harrison. On Thelemic Catholicism.

The ISIS of Paris. In view that he painted the coronation of Napoleon a few years later, in 1804-5, and that the Arc de Triomphe was designed in 1806-11 by Chalgrin, and the scene of the ‘Triumph of Napoleon’ was sculpted in 1933 by the artist Jean-Pierre Cortot, then we are justified in supposing that the sequence of events suggests that in the mind of Napoleon and the artists that undertook the work on the Arc de Triomphe on his behalf, the ‘Place de l’Etoile’ (Arc de Triomphe) was a symbol of Isis and her ‘star’, Sirius, which he also had placed on the coat of arms of Paris.
Later, in 1836, the ‘Citizen’ king, Louis-Philippe I, who had been responsible for the raising of the Egyptian obelisk at the Place de la Concorde, also completed the construction of the Arc de Triomphe. In fact it was he who commissioned the artist Cortot to sculpt the ‘Triumph of Napoleon’ on the east façade.

Workers clad in white overalls cordoned off the statue with barriers on Tuesday morning, removing the decaying flowers, torn messages of peace and candles that had piled up around its base.
