Kyary Pamyu Pamyu: Nanda Collection Kyary Pamyu Pamyu is the most popular J-pop performer in the Western Hemisphere, which makes sense because she’s the most Western J-pop performer in Japan. It’s a quality that’s embedded right in her name: “Kyary” is the closest Japanese-language approximation of the Western name “Carrie,” which her high school classmates teased her with when they thought she was dressed in a too typically “American” style. (She added the “Pamyu Pamyu” part just because she thought it sounded good.)
The Art of SharingQuand un chauffeur de taxi Japonais devient photographe ! Coup de projecteur aujourd’hui sur Issui Enomoto, un chauffeur de taxi de la ville de Yokohama au Japon. Ce n’est pas pour ses performances au volant qu’il se retrouve ici mais bel et bien pour sa sa série de clichés intitulée Taxi in the Sea, qu’il a capturé alors qu’il était en recherche de passagers. Bonne découverte ! Et pour soutenir HouHouHaHa et son premier webdocumentaire personnel, n’hésitez pas à contribuer à notre cagnotte KissKissBankBank. Merci à tous.

Advertising Photography and Commercial Photography : CHRIS SISARICH PHOTOGRAPHER Lifestyle1 | Lifestyle2 | Cars | Landscapes | Projects | Motion Landscapes Arnulf Rainer Austrian painter, printmaker and photographer. He had almost no academic training as an artist. From 1948 to 1951 he produced Surrealistic drawings representing underwater scenes and mystical forms, rendering these fantastic images in pencil as a densely worked surface. Deeply suspicious of rationality, he investigated the potential of dreams, madness and the subconscious; to these ends he co-founded the Hundsgruppe under the influence of French Surrealism in 1950. He began to turn away from fantastic Surrealism. From 1951 to 1954 he worked on a series entitled Blind Drawings (e.g. 1952; see 1988 exh. cat., p. 27), in which he studied optical disintegration and the destruction of form, replacing pictorial composition and illusion with the immediacy of accidentally encountered textures.
Olivier Metzger Photographer Günter Brus Tal y como señalaba Manuel Asensi en el catálogo de la exposición Günter Brus. Quietud nerviosa en el horizonte, para entender el trabajo de Brus “es necesario tener en cuenta su obsesión por los límites: entre el arte y el mundo, entre las artes (teatro, poesía, pintura, situación, escritura material, etc.), entre los interiores y los exteriores (lo que hay dentro del cuerpo y lo que hay fuera de él), entre lo animado y lo inanimado, entre la muerte y la vida”. Günter Brus (Ardning, Austria, 1938) fue, junto a Otto Muehl, Hermann Nitsch y Rudolf Schwarzkogler, uno de los máximos representantes del accionismo vienés, un movimiento que a mediados de la década de los sesenta convulsionó la escena cultural austriaca al llevar el arte al terreno de la acción y utilizar el cuerpo humano como principal soporte y material artístico. A finales de los años cincuenta, Brus realizaba una obra pictórica muy próxima al expresionismo abstracto. Actividad relacionada

Morton Bartlett In 1993, Marion Harris, a New York art and antiques dealer, made the discovery of her life: In a booth at the Pier Show, a major antiques fair in New York, she came upon a collection of dolls and doll parts in boxes, along with stacks of old photographs. The material had been removed from a townhouse in Boston’s South End after the death of its elderly owner, a man named Morton Bartlett. Acting on instinct, she bought everything, and when she got it all home she found that what she’d purchased was a group of 15 exquisitely realistic, half-life-size dolls carefully wrapped in old newspapers and stored in custom-made wooden boxes. Three of them represented a boy of about 8 years old, and the rest were figures of girls between the ages of 8 and 16.
Lucian Freud: The Painter's Etchings One of the foremost figurative artists working today, Lucian Freud (British, born Germany 1922) has redefined portraiture and the nude through his unblinking scrutiny of the human form. Although best known as a painter, etching has become integral to his practice. This exhibition will present the full scope of Freud's achievements in etching, including some seventy-five examples ranging from rare, early experiments in the 1940s to the increasingly large and complex compositions created since his rediscovery of the medium in the early 1980s. In a dramatic and unusual cross-media installation, it will also include a selection of related paintings and drawings, illuminating the crucial, cross-pollinating relationship between Freud's etchings and paintings. Freud is not a traditional printmaker.
