Something at LP
There have been quite a few discussions, around here, about this exhibition; mainly revolving about the show’s art historical lineage. I beleive that will be the structure of the discussion at Locust Projects. There are some pictures here and blurb here.

atget
I stumbled upon a book discussing Eugene Atget and his photographs, at the library. The Miami Beach regional branch of the library is very nice. Many of the books on the shelf are still new.
Atget’s photographs of Parisian street scenes are very intriguing. Apparently, they are his most ‘famous’ images. Atget seem to have capture the city’s stillness and poise; the moment before the city is fully awake and engaged. I can image his routine which would lead him and his camera on a sineous path throughout Paris; chasing the light, attuned to the moment and poise to capture the next shot.
Here are two images, probably shot the same day( at least the same year, 1924). The websites that I snatched these images from are calling the building in the background “the parthenon.”
Correction: I misidentified the building in the imgaes as the ‘parthenon,’ it’s clearly identified as the ‘pantheon’. My architectural education didn’t thoroughly cover France of the 18th century; though, it did introduced me the works of Boullee, Ledoux and Lequec. Pantheon to me refers to a Roman temple, but it makes total sense that in the Neoclassical period that a building partly modelled on the Roman Pantheon would be designed and build in Paris. It pretty much functionned as a temple of great men of France–serving as a burial place to Voltaire, Rousseau, Hugo, Dumas and the Curies(Marie being the first woman buried there).
images from the paper
We started getting the nytimes everyday. We usually get just the sunday (Florida) edition. It think it is free for a few months. I think the subscription is actually sponsored by someone/some company. And so, the nytimes gives us a free paper, but they somehow count it toward their subscription numbers. Anyway, we did this before a couple years. The only problem is that we end up with a lot of newspaper in and around the house. The nice thing is, of course, lots of good reading. Here are few images that I have scanned from this week pile of of paper. I think I’ll continue to add some scanned images every now and then.
The article profiled Jenny Holzer and spoke of her methods, her reading and her approach to the task of commemorating September 11. I especially like the fact some reading were of documents made avaliable through the Freedom of Information Act.
I am a fan of Ruscha.
I am a fan of the stage, especially scene and lighting design. I wish that we had the resources, so that we can attend plays, operas and dance concerts. But more importantly, I hope that our new Performing Art Center will be the venue for such good stage works. I attended a couple of operas by the Florida Grand Opera, at their current Dade County Auditorium location. And I remember being bored by the design and the mise en scene. I wish that the FGO will retire its old painted props, its uninspired costume and pasty make-up and entice us all to its operas with beautiful music and a lovely stage works.
This is supposed to be backstage at a fashion show. Apparently, everything goes. As long as, there are no pictures. The article is about Kate Moss’s woes. I really like the hair and the martini. I suspect that this image might be slighty staged.
