  1. My Classical Music Primer: Stravinsky Edition — The Heat of Integration, The Heat of Friction
    Mozart's dynamism comes from integration: the orchestra converging into one melody, one breath. Stravinsky's Rite of Spring runs on the opposite fuel — fragments colliding, voices refusing to merge. A first-listen impression: fascinating, but not exactly something I'd reach for again.

  2. "Nature Morte Cubiste," Maria Blanchard, 1917.

    Spanish painter Blanchard (1881-1932) had a sad life in many ways; she had lifelong physical health problems that left her mobility-impaired and badly bullied as a child, and as a result also had a number of mental health problems as well. But she channeled her physical and emotional pain into becoming a distinctive Cubist artist.

    A close friend of my favorite Cubist, Juan Gris, the two inspired each other and often worked together. His passing in 1927 left her badly depressed and while family moved in to help restore her health, she had to work to support them. Eventually tuberculosis took her, but the strain of her physical, emotional, and financial difficulties didn't help.

    Her Cubism is fairly distinctive, with sharply defined, flat geometric shapes. What she's depicting here is unclear, so perhaps this qualifies as an Abstract work as well.

    She moved away from Cubism in the 20s and became more representational yet still distinctly modernist. While she achieved some respect in her lifetime, it took a while for her work to achieve acclaim and recognition as female Modern artist.

    From a private collection.

  7. 🎨 Jeg købte en ny æske bløde, lækre, farvemættede Gallery oliepasteller fra Mungyo for nylig. De skulle selvfølgelig prøves af, så jeg lavede disse to (børne)tegninger, som blev givet væk som gave i weekenden.

  12. Early Painted Fakes

    Nachdem wir schon mit unserer letzten Bildbetrachtung einen Ausflug in das Gebiet der Malerei mit photographischer Anmutung gemacht haben, werde ich versuchen mal etwas tiefer in das Thema einzusteigen. Ich bin ja kein Kunsthistoriker, aber dadurch auch frei grob vereinfachend über Entwicklungsprozesse im Verhältnis von Malerei und Photographie zu fabulieren. Also, mit (Er)findung der Photographie hat die Malerei eines ihrer wichtigsten Standbeine abtreten müssen, nämlich die […]

  13. "Guitar on a Table," Juan Gris, 1915.

    I've talked about Juan Gris, my favorite Cubist, before, so I won't go into his story again. But I love his clean lines and his ability to be Cubist while still making his objects discernable.

    Here he's got a guitar (a frequent motif in his work) against sheet music on a tabletop...but the guitar has only five strings, and the music is missing a line from the staff. He's letting us know what they are without being a slave to naturalism, which I respect.

    Gris was a champion of "Crystal Cubism" and did many paintings I admire...and I usually don't like Cubism! There's just something about his firm vision and ability to render an object while still toying with perspective that I really like.

    From the Kröller-Müller Museum, Otterlo, The Netherlands.

  23. "Guitar in Front of the Sea," Juan Gris, 1925.

    As I've said before, I don't care much for Cubism, except for Juan Gris' style.

    Spaniard Gris (1887-1927) started off as an illustrator and cartoonist, but moved to Paris and plunged himself into the avant-garde art world. He became a passionate Cubist, and in my view the best, as he practiced "Crystal Cubism" where he broke down things to their component shapes, but kept them still recognizable. His remarkably clean lines appeal to me.

    The guitar here is two intersecting triangles with a rectangle thrust in it...the newspaper is two trapezoids together...the sea is some white lines on blue with a plain white triangle indicating a sailboat. We also have sheet music, a pear, and what may be the Ace of Diamonds....and while they're all distinctly Cubist, you still easily recognize them.

    Poor health meant he died young and never moved to another style. As some critics have said, he's the purest Cubist of the lot.

    From the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, Madrid.

    By breaking down the body into geometric fragments, the cubist style perfectly captures the lived reality of Palestinians and the core message of this narrative. It fully illuminates the psychological experience of the occupation and its effects on Palestinians as a whole. The visual tension caused by cubism showcases the urgency of the situation at hand.
