Barcelona! Fundació Antoni Tàpies
Amazing !,.I love his work , the space is mind-blowing and could be there for hours ! Very inspiring are all of the stories where Antoni Tapies based his inspiration and so his art on . As all of us life guides us as it comes and we take on what will indentify us and so the art we make.
Fundació Antoni Tàpies
Antoni Tàpies was born in Barcelona in 1923 into a cultured, middle-class, Catalan nationalist family who, since the 19th century, had been part of a publishing and book-selling tradition that awoke in him an early love of books and reading.
That inclination was strengthened over a long convalescence from a lung disease, during which he began his first experiments with art. He spent an increasing amount of time on drawing and painting and ended up abandoning his law studies to devote himself to them fully. By the forties he was already exhibiting his works, which were outstanding on the art scene of the time.
The works of the last years are, most of all, a reflection on pain – both physical and spiritual – understood as an integral part of life. Influenced by Buddhist thought, Tàpies believes that a better knowledge of pain allows us to soften its effects and therefore improve our quality of life. The passage of time, which has always been a constant in his work, now takes on fresh nuances when lived as a personal experience which brings greater self-knowledge and a clearer understanding of the world around him. In recent years he has consolidated an artistic language which visually conveys both his conception of art and certain philosophical concerns which have been renewed over the years. His artistic practice is still open to the brutality of the present while offering a form which, despite its ductility, remains faithful to its origins. And so the works of the last few years are not only fully contemporary, they are also a record of his own past.
ONE OF THE LAYER GIRLS: JUDITH WIERSMA her work:
Judith Wiersema (1968) geniet internationale bekendheid met sensuele sculpturen in brons of aluminium. Ze gebruikt steen of hout om het creatieve proces te starten. Vanuit haar eigen gevoel en gestuurd door de structuur en vorm van het materiaal, geeft zij de kracht en schoonheid van het vrouwelijk lichaam vorm. Voor de afwerking worden ook wax, polyester en nieuwe kleurtechnieken toegepast.

Brilliant !
Solar-Powered Portable Electrical Outlet… Just attach the plug on to a window and it will harness solar energy. A small charger will convert it into electricity which can be freely used as a plug when you are in the car, on a plane.

Floating between de pillars ,1 and 1 , 11 the first and then twice , or more,.

The number eleven carries a vibrational frequency of balance. It represents male and female equality. It contains both sun energy and moon energy simultaneously yet holding them both in perspective separate-ness. Perfect balance. Balancing in duality , levitating trough lovely life .LoveMeXXXX
