  1. ¿Y si el cielo de una canción de Luis Alberto Spinetta dialogara con la pintura de Edgar Degas?

    En este nuevo #ApuntesSpinetteanos exploro un posible cruce entre "¿En qué ves el cielo?" y la mirada del pintor francés, buscando resonancias entre la poesía, la imagen y el modo en que ambos construyen lo invisible.

  5. A follow-up to this, chasing Delacroix's quote back a year:

    Art critic Léon Peisse in 1849, in a review of a work by Delacroix:

    > La vérité esthétique n’est pas l’exactitude. (Aesthetic truth is not exactitude.)

    Then Delacroix writes in his journal in 1850, and says it better:

    > La froide exactitude n’est pas l’art. (Cold exactitude is not art.)

  12. Wer #impressionisten / #neoimpressionisten mag ist im pariser 'Musée d'Orsay' genau richtig. Ein tolles Gebäude inmitten von #paris direkt an der Seine und fast visavis vom #louvre (am anderen Flußufer). Es ist ein ehemaliger Bahnhof und beherbergt eine fantastische Sammlung von #degas, #manet, #monet, #renoir... Van Gogh u.a.m.
    Mich hat's begeistert! 🤩

  13. @AGT Yes, #Degas was a fine artist (bit of a thing with young women though), but after reading this from the Discovering Degas exhibition in Glasgow 2024 I can't think of his work without this as context.to Degas the man.

  19. Went to see the #Degas exhibition at the #Burrell collection this morning.

    Excellent. The curators were not afraid to juxtapose his artistic merit with his racist and antisemitic views. Not to mention the teenage girls …

    It is possible to hold these competing ideas in your head simultaneously.

    “Degas was an artistic genius whose focus on colour and form revolutionised late 19th and early 20th century European art.

    In his spare time, he was a complete arsehole.”

  21. 😱A collector buys a supposed "#Degas" oil #Painting at an auction on #TodoColección,a Spanish #Website for the sale of second-hand items,from a descendant of a #Catalan banker for 926 euros
    Edgar Degas' "Eloge Du Maquillage" could be worth between 7 and 8 million

  22. I am well aware of the art historical importance of the impressionists, but most of their work does not excite me. The big exception is Degas, but he is something of an outlier amongst them.

  24. What do you do when one of the most famous tutus in the world needs a glow up? Just ask the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Glenn Petersen, Conservator at The Costume Institute who worked to update the real cloth tutu on Degas' beloved sculpture "The Little Fourteen-Year-Old Dancer."

    Fun Fact: Degas's original sculpture was made of many unorthodox materials, including tinted beeswax, a human-hair wig, a cotton bodice, linen ballet slippers, and tarlatan tutu #degas #sculpture #conservation #museum
