the artist on Sunday: Takashi Murakami - The Oval Buddha

Takashi Murakami, The Oval Buddha, 2007

Pop . Pop for many is a kind of dirty word. If something is "pop" is poor, is obvious, useless, trivial. In fact the banality el ' futility can be detected even in what is not pop at all.

The Pop Art was a revolutionary current within the concept of Art. The art was good or bad considering the expression of the human spirit, its creativity and his inner ; what could not be told in words, could communicate a painting, a sculpture, even a color. In the first half of the twentieth century was crucial this kind of conception, it was an expression of conscious or unconscious, "automatic" for themselves. And since the Expressionists and the Dadaists , in particular, which started to come out a new way of understanding art. If you have concerns about this paternity, take a look the famous LHOOQ of Marcel Duchamp .

Pop Art then took literally flying in the United States , which in the 60s were already a real consumer society, as Europe struggled a lot more after the Second World War. Campbell Soup of Andy Warhol , comics Lichtenstein the contents of cans of doubt Piero Manzoni.

But what happens when this way of understanding art meets East?

An example is Takashi Murakami . This Japanese artist has been very influenced by Warhol's Factory, the establishment of an artist's studio which was also a place to cultivate new talent, an operation that is managed effectively. Kaikai Kiki Co.

is the name of his collective and produces everything with a meaning of Pop Art, termed Poku. The Poku is created by Pop + otaku, or the obsession with manga, anime and video games. When you look at his work you get confused because it seems to be the face of illustrations for comic books, their characters for a new gadget or video game. There are two locations: one in Tokyo and the other, for obvious reasons New York. They produce works of art, but Murakami was able to draw a new creativity Louis Vuitton (so to speak, just look at the bags on the stalls' style Louis Vuitton "logo and small white and colored drawings and many other fantasy) and produce anything that can be marketed: wallpaper, calendars, pillows, candy, toys and more.

Today I'm interested in a single work: The Oval Buddha .

This is a sculpture metal 6 feet high, covered with platinum, the proposal for the exhibition organized by Moca of Los Angeles. The sculpture is composed of a base (an elephant) from which originates a lotus flower, this flower is the sitting Buddha in question. portrait artist, has two faces: a serene at the front of a sculpture and back with an open mouth and a row of sharp teeth, a kind of Janus. What is striking is the impression that it is definitely a character came out of a manga, but with a focus on Japanese culture, especially that of Buddhism. A comparison is effectively a large statue of Buddha of Kamakura : This sculpture dates from the thirteenth century and there is a temple to protect it. His being isolated from the rest of the place of worship is due to the multiple natural disasters, from storms to the tsunami, which wiped out the wooden structures, leaving religion as the only witness to the bronze sculpture, much larger than that of Murakami (more 13 meters).

Noble materials and otaku, East and West mixed in a way that certainly strikes.

Memorial Day - A look at last Sunday

The Memorial Day was established to remember what happened during the Nazi-Fascist . organized the extermination of entire peoples merita un momento di riflessione e istituire una giornata senza però dedicarsi a capire realmente cosa è successo e a chi non ha nessun valore.

Non so quanto se ne parli in modo interessato e costruttivo a scuola (che peggiora di giorno in giorno), ma, se lo si fa, si tende sempre e solo a parlare degli ebrei . Le ragioni dovrebbero essere palesi: si tratta dei "ricchi" della situazione, di conseguenza il massimo rispetto e cordoglio è riferito soltanto a questo popolo.

Da qualche anno mi son presa l'onere di aprire delle finestre sulle tante etnie coinvolte.

Tra i popoli dimenticati ci sono le etnie Sinti e Rom degli zingari, oggi ricordati anche, stranamente, President Napolitano . This destruction is called Porajmos , great devastation.

Recommended triangle with brown , Gypsies were seen as inferior peoples, of Aryan origin, but they had mixed their blood with that of the first Indian then to return to the Asian mix with that of other European peoples, including Slavs , taken by a people enslaved as they were subhuman.

not known how many Gypsies were exterminated in concentration camps . Some estimates go up to one million and a half victims. It is not possible to identify and all counts are not clear, because they are not defined and often family trees, being mostly nomadic peoples and in some cases, stateless persons are not registered in any state.

Under the consideration that one had to very low they were considered of great guinea pigs for a series of experiments , required more concentration camps of Auschwitz and Dechau.

The experiments were of a medical and military. One case concerned the freezing. The German Air Force was interested in discussing the time and remedies to freezing. One subject was immersed in a tub of ice water for an hour - An hour and a half. Occurs when the body temperature drops below 28 ° C, the prisoner died. Needless to say, were not required of test animals, much less human, that it was necessary to define thicken suits airmen for missions in the North Europe. been a number of remedies were used by fishermen in the North Sea: the r iscaldamento with human contact. Gypsy middle-aged women, who were then saved from sterilization, but practiced for the younger ones, were used to heat other guinea pigs previously soaked in ice water. There were hundreds of such experiments, to reach the conclusion that it was more effectively a hot bath to counteract freezing.

Always aviation commissioned experiments drinking salt water. 80 Gypsies were left to die of thirst or forced to drink salt water for the likelihood of survival, the possibility that it was already known to exist.

An experiment was extremely cruel to the groped to immunize humans against mustard gas and phosgene, a poison gas, in liquid form but get some deep burns . Again, these mice were selected Gypsies, as well as political dissidents. The experiment was simple: the gypsies were made come in pairs in a sealed chamber, a victim had been immunized with dell'urotropina, the other not. As the door closed, it automatically opened a vial of phosgene. The experiment lasted 20 minutes, then followed the next pair. The results were "brilliant" means immunized survived. But it was not enough: it was necessary to determine how quickly they could recover their strength after exposure. So the survivors were routed to the sound of whipping.

Not because of lesser horror, mass sterilization was another treatment of Gypsies and others, but to all those people considered by the Nazi-Fascist subhuman. Initially they were used surgical methods such as vasectomy and tubal ligament; we soon realized that this was a long and expensive method, so he made his way in experimentation. The Clauberg method involves the injection of irritating substances into the uterus with agony, accompanied by the threat of death if someone tries to rebel. The Schumann method involves spraying instead of direct X-rays for 15 minutes, the method was not effective, so security is returned to the surgical method for Gypsies and the victims were mostly girls aged 13-14.

Ultimately we can mention the experiments on twins Mengele, a doctor who carried out experiments with no scientific basis, obsessed by the twins both by traders to trade their bodies, groped transplant unlikely to implement cross-transfusion and with the crazy idea of \u200b\u200bsimultaneous death: their hearts were injected with phenol "hoping" to have died at the same time. These experiments concerned the twins of each ethnic group.

Ultimately, the treatment they suffered can be combined with that of other prisoners and are likely to be very repetitive and lists the methods of extermination are used as gas chambers. But what should be remembered is that there were too, as were homosexuals, transsexuals and lesbians, the handicapped, political dissidents, Witnesses Jehovah's criminals of various kinds and immigrants.

Remembering the life and suffering of these people should help us to better interpret the present, not to commit more errors of this kind, to be more aware of ourselves and our past. We had to be able to distinguish what is right and what is not, but sometimes I look around and realize that we have not learned anything from history: we fall into the same errors in a spiral of hatred that makes no sense.

Ideas For Old Pendants

Artist: Jacques-Louis David - Death Marat

DEATH OF MARAT

Jacques-Louis David, 1793, oil on canvas, 165 x 128 cm, Musée Royaux des Beaux-Arts, Brussels

An atypical history painting. A picture atypical. A few elements to tell a great story, a man symbol of the French Revolution. Only a great artist could have the gift of synthesis effective way to lightly tragedy.

Jacques-Louis David painted in an era of unrest, settling in France in the throes of a revolution that already has cost many lives. Napoleon soldier for the revolution is already running. Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette was guillotined in the short follow his destiny.

run a country in disarray and led to questionable decisions, including those who had to decide what to do and how to do it, there were Robespierre and Marat . Both will fall at the hands of others, at the hands of those who do not pay their violent methods, the Terror that the first will establish and foment violent fringes of the people by the second.

But this violence is not there ' is a sign in the painting by David. What the artist has decided to recall è la sua fine tragica e il modo di vivere scelto dal rivoluzionario, in linea con la sua moralità e i suoi principi. 

Marat è immerso in una vasca da bagno, unico sistema che aveva per poter alleviare la sua dermatite. Anche in queste condizioni non smetteva di scrivere articoli per il suo giornale, grazie all'ausilio di una semplice e sgangherata cassetta di legno, elemento ricorrente in molti dipinti a lui dedicati. In questo caso l'oggetto funge anche da piccola lapide, con una dedica semplice "A Marat" e la firma dell'artista. 

Simbolo della sua modestia economica sono anche le lenzuola rattoppate visibilmente, in basso a sinistra. Un calamaio sulla cassetta e una penna d'oca ancora tra le dita della mano destra, il cui braccio è l'unico elemento verticale del dipinto, indicano la piena attività, ormai solo intellettuale, del medico rivoluzionario. La mano sinistra regge la lettera inviatagli da Charlotte Corday , la sua assassina. Della sua presenza non è rimasto altro che il coltello col quale ha pugnalato l'eroe della Rivoluzione durante l'udienza concessagli. 

Quasi come un Cristo Morto, Marat appare in una luce livida, senza direzione, su uno sfondo scuro, quasi a ricordare le flagellazioni, le apparizioni dall'ombra di Caravaggio. Lo sguardo esita sul volto privo di vita del soggetto, circondato da un turbante che pare fare le veci di un'aureola, punto di fuga di tutta l'organizzazione del dipinto attira il nostro sguardo, quasi a volerne carpire l'ultimo pensiero.  

Un santo laico, un santo temuto, ma pur sempre un eroe che ha portato all'incredibile mutamento di un Paese governato da un sovrano assoluto. 

David riesce a comunicarci la sua storia cancellando ogni elemento superfluo per lasciarci l'uomo. La sincerità delle sue idee è palpabile. Questo dipinto è la sintesi della sua pittura storica e morale, liberò com'è, ancora per poco, delle commissioni napoleoniche.
