The Public Good: An exhibition that echoed the news

Once again, the association Planet NSG creates the event by hosting a painting exhibition in perfect harmony with the news.
Planet NSG offers exposure "Hotspots" which features some very colorful paintings of large, stapled on the wall as if to indicate the urgency of the situation.
The painter, Josette Simon Guiollot, is the granddaughter of sculptor and implanted Beaune in the Country for several years.
At 12, she is already taking courses at the Fine Arts. In the eighties, she decided to concentrate fully on-the passion and went to Paris to train in several workshops. Then, she will receive training in art therapy that led him to teach his technique to diverse audiences but also to develop a heterogeneous-art project.
The revolt of the Arab people
"Hotspots" is an exhibition of circumstance because it speaks of the revolt of the Arab peoples that Josette Simon Guiollot knows pretty well for them to be made repeatedly. "I'm in revolt and anger, friendship for all those peoples who suffer and who thirst for parole. Faced with these events, our small everyday problems seem trivial and often-futile. I work on the encounter with another in an incessant search for love and communication ", explains the artist.
Suffering and hope for change
The biggest star, with an area of about 6 square meters, was painted a few years ago, echoing the conflict situation in the Gaza Strip. Other paintings are more recent and return inexorably to suffering and hope of change claimed by these people. In the midst of these paintings, all done in acrylic, the artist staged. Several portraits of various sizes and illustrated by bubbles, like a cartoon. The soundbites and reflections that illustrate these phylacteries-contrast with the works and allow everyone to navigate and perspective on the importance of its concerns. The texts speak for themselves-and everyone can navigate.
Info The exhibition runs at the Fief, 3, Republic Square, Saturdays from 10 to 13 hours or by appointment. Contact: tel. 06.20.92.99.89; jgsaturne@orange.fr /; www.planetenuits.com/.

Spanish Wedding Reception Ideas



The Junk , Sarah Waters

The fifth novel by Sarah Waters tells of greatness and English decadence of a home and family there (on) lives. Both fresco family, fantastic story and social novel, a book that devours.

Hundreds Hall is a magnificent and huge house nestled in the English countryside and inhabited for generations by the family Ayres. The narrator of this story, Faraday, recalls the grandeur of this house where his mother was a nanny. The images he cautions are those of the splendid festivities taking place there, creeping, employees and the nobility of its people. But when, became a doctor despite his social origins, he had the opportunity enter them again, years later, he can only observe the decay Hundreds Hall and the rest of the family Ayres. Called because the only domestic worker, the young Betty, complains of stomach pains, he will meet Mrs. Ayres and his two children, Caroline, spinster (despite his young age) without charm but not devoid of humor and Roderick's son, returned from the war wounded. The family fortune and nothing remains of the glory of the past there are only good manners to Ayres, a few dingy dresses, holding that the good old fashioned poor Betty has to shoulder every day and marvel at this house Dr. Faraday always, especially on days of fine weather, but collapses from all sides and that the three remaining family members are no longer able to stand. And then ... and then some strange things begin to occur in this mysterious mansion. Noises, marks on the walls, the feeling of a presence ... One by one, the Ayres family members seem to succumb to the terror generated by this house, to the chagrin of Dr. Faraday, who does not know what to do to make them see reason. The family suffers Ayres does a hereditary disorder that leads inexorably to madness Hundreds Hall or is it haunted? But
beyond the ghost stories, The Junk the novel is mainly of an era: the post-war is an emerging new class of operatives, and sees another death yesterday while Top of social hierarchy and now often ruined and without any power. The "new rich" are buying up old houses, get rid of what made their charm and turn into buildings and modern practices.
Sarah Waters creates a mysterious atmosphere and captivating, sometimes scary and you think, often, to Edgar Allan Poe. The author, once will not hurt, for narrator has chosen a man and we witness, through the eyes of both fascinated and condescending love of Dr. Faraday, day after day, season after season, the collapse of this house, this family and some time. It does not happen much, yet difficult to release 707 pages of this novel as the tension of this family is palpable fresco and terribly endearing characters. And if the end is a little frustrating, it is undeniable The Junk us spellbound.

Best Way To Get Rid Of A Gum Ulcer

Catherine Bodmer


Catherine Bodmer Artist in Residence Artist in Residence (Français FOLLOWS) The current project is a new body of work I am currently developing the following a residency research that I conducted in spring 2010 in Mexico City. From a "routinization" of my trips to town, I was curious to explore the idea of a place of nudity in a city teeming with people and things. Next intuitively rather the idea of limbo, this intermediate space and blurring between heaven and hell, I have documented several places that seemed to fit that image in-between. Using strategies of doubling and multiplication, symmetry and asymmetry, these links are put in situations and relationships with themselves and with the contradictions inherent in the desire to reconstruct the lost paradise.
I use the medium of photography and digital processing of the image to explore real and imaginary spaces of everyday life, but above all, that of the same image that allows the fusion and confusion of the two. It is never to use that photograph as a document of reality, but rather as material that can arrange multiple images and elements with digital means. They are constructed images that hover between reality and fiction, and propose to revisit the themes of ambition, desire, and absurdity.
************* Catherine Bodmer Artist in Residence The present project constitutes a new body of work which is a direct offshoot of my research residency in Mexico City in the spring 2010. Starting from a “routinization” of my movements throughout the city, I wanted to explore the idea of the nudity of particular places in a city teeming with people and things. Pursuing in a rather intuitive fashion the idea of limbo, that indistinct, intermediate zone between paradise and hell, I documented several different locales which seemed to correspond to this image of in-betweenness. By employing techniques of replication and multiplication, symmetry and asymmetry, these places and situations are put in relationships with themselves, revealing inherent contradictions in the desire to reconstruct a lost paradise.

I have been using photography and the digital processing of images to explore the real and imaginary spaces of daily life and, above all, the space within the image itself which allows for a fusion and confusion of the two. The photograph is never solely a document portraying a reality, but rather provides the means to digitally configure a variety of images and elements. These are constructed images, oscillating between reality and fiction and permitting a re-evaluation of the themes of ambition, desire, and absurdity.

Catherine Bodmer, who is from Switzerland, graduated from the School of Arts in Lucerne and completed a Master’s degree in art at the Université du Québec in Montréal in 1999. Her artistic work includes installations, in-situ creations, and photographs dealing with ideas of transformation and fluidity which are central to her research. Her work has been presented at several solo and group exhibitions across Canada, as well as in Mexico and Taiwan. In 2008, she was awarded the Canada Council’s Duke and Duchess of York Award in Photography. In 2010, she completed a residency in Mexico City as part of the studio residency program of the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec, and she will return this spring to participate in another residency at ADM Centro Arte Diseño Multimedia in Mexico City.

How Do Basco People Look

Dead Man (Re) Read the classics # 3


The Work Emile Zola

art or life or how Zola defends modern art.

In the Rougon-Macquart family, you had already spoken here the first generation, which would determine the fates of their descendants. Skip a few years to take an interest in Claude Lantier, a son of Gervaise. Thanks to an old gentleman who had seen him as a budding artist, Claude left Paris at age nine years to receive, in the south, a serious education enabling him to escape family poverty. His ambition is, in adulthood, to become a great painter. Not one of these gentlemen of the Academy who have understood nothing of painting, but a visionary artist, able to report on the canvas of the Truth of the changing world, its colors and lights. A modern painter. In his small workshop, it persists in the work which should enable it to enter the Salon. A large painting about strange lunch in the woods where, alongside men dressed, a naked woman appears. The female figure eludes him, the models did not inspire. That chance encounter with Christine, an unhappy frightened by the small provincial city, which allows him to find inspiration and, eventually, true love. Because Claude is passionate in his art in his life. Bursts of creativity that can overwhelm and devour, now certain to be a genius, now convinced that he never will succeed in painting his dreams. The famous canvas, Outdoors , is clearly rejected at the Salon but will be exposed, and this is a first the Salon des Refuses. Creating desired by Napoleon III, this show off is a response to critics who question the choice of the Salon jury and the public can form its own opinion. And all of Paris to discover these artists that have not been legitimized by the official institutions. The canvas of Claude is the star of the show, not for his qualities, but by the incredible ridicule it triggers in the audience. The crowd just to gloat absurd image, breaking with the standards and tastes of the time. Despite the recognition of some of his peers who see him the leader of a possible new paint, this setback and humiliation for the artist cursed mark the beginning of the end.

Although this volume Rougon-Macquart is consistent with the general experimental novel by Zola wanted (the passionate temperament and borderline Claude was partly explained by its genetic) is above all an incredible document the beginnings of modern painting in Paris. Familiar Cezanne and Manet ( Outdoors returns so barely disguised his Luncheon on the Grass), demonstrates here ZOLA resistors academicism and the public face of this new way of painting in the second half of the 19th century. The fate of Claude is one of those artists who wanted to break with the official painting and, on leaving the workshops, trying to report on the work of light (like Monet, Claude tries to collect the light changes on the same subject at different times), attempting to approach the Truth, have revolutionized painting. It's almost like a gypsy for the lives of these destitute men ready to sacrifice everything for their art. And in this quest for modernity, ZOLA offered even a disguised self-portrait through the character of a writer who tries, against critics, and reinventing the novel to construct a vast cycle where heredity, environment and historical circumstances explain human behavior.

A novel and exciting about the artist at work or Zola succeeds in accounting for the writing of this modernity that tries to capture his character, through descriptions of scenes of crowds, the lights of Paris, movements on the web . Amusing that in her ardor ZOLA comes to lyricism sometimes a bit too much , while it is exactly that blames the writers Romantic.

His work has been presented in Canada, France, Brazil, Lebanon and on the Web.

François Quévillon’s work explores the complex phenomena of nature and perception by putting into play processes that are subject to interference by both the spectators and variable environmental conditions. He distinguishes himself through the creation of acoustic, visual and haptic environments which invite visitors into perceptual situations which they can influence. His in situ architectural installations and creations integrate interactive devices which permit matter to be modulated by data and energy fluctuations. In tandem with these concrete experiences, situated in time and space, he explores the actual representation of spatiotemporal phenomena. To be able to investigate a world in constant flux, he has devised systems of imagery which compress and spatialise time through the coalescence and treatment of videographic micro-samples. His current investigations make use of geomatics and the Internet to visualize environmental data in real time.
His creations vary in their formal and aesthetic design and initiate processes of atomization and transduction stimulated by interfaces with environmental data. The permeability produced through the interaction of logical approaches and unpredictable elements creates spaces which extend towards an indeterminate horizon. Though based on concepts of instability and complexity, his research and creativity employ a minimalist approach to media technologies. His productions explore the phenomenological dimension of perception by offering an experience in which a palpable chaos emerges from the passage of time. http://www.francois-quevillon.com



Do Chicken Poc Make You Infertile

Play it again, Paul

Sunset Park, Auster

We all have something in us, Paul Auster ...

He had left a year ago barely ( here) and yet he is already back (in original, certainly, but the translation will be soon). And as always, it works. AUSTER has this gift to create an atmosphere in a few pages, a character, a situation which one is immediately attached. A little music that belongs to him and whose fans (who said groupies?) Never tire. While neglecting the side a little "story within a story within the story" of his later novels, however, he finds his inevitable: a father, a son, Brooklyn. Concentrate Aust.
And yet the novel begins in Florida where miles of a young adult, lives took odd jobs, the latest of emptying the houses that the victims of the financial crisis have had to abandon. Voluntary exile for several years, he fled his parents without giving news and door, as they say in these cases, a dark secret. But chance - another tool of the toolbox austerienne - bring him back to Brooklyn, Sunset Park, where a childhood friend moved into a house neglected. A squat quite comfortable where Miles will meet roommates, who also seem to have put their life on hold. The stories of each of these characters will cross and give life to a small world, it's hard to escape.

In Brooklyn Follies , characters dreamed of a perfect place, a place to realize their desires : The Hotel Existence. In Sunset Park , the inhabitants of the abandoned house, uniting their forces against adversity in various forms, also seem to want to believe in their dreams of becoming an artist, keep the past alive, to find love. Utopia? More ...
Without seeming to touch it, the author also shows how the financial crisis affects the real. Houses abandoned, discarded objects, editors at bay ... But Paul (from the years, I have the right to call him by his first name) works in small steps, by a subtle interplay of elements responding to and create the narrative of his novel. Digressions, reflections on art, the coincidences, a familiar tune ... but still manages to surprise and hope to see happen in the next novel as soon as possible.

2010 Clothes Montreal

closed because

Back among men, Philippe Besson

Homecoming with the young hero of the first novel by Philippe Besson.

"They lived happily and had many of children. "
Unlike fairy tales, most of the novels give us the opportunity to imagine the rest of the story. What happens to these characters, the time of reading, we have brought in their wake? Once the book is closed, they sometimes remain in us, as the memories of those childhood friends that we lose track. So should we or not to proceed with a novel that, initially, did not expect and risking the reunion? This is the question that may arise after reading Back among men Philippe Besson where, ten years after the publication of her first novel In the absence of men gives us news of his young hero. We left
Vincent de L'Étoile, at the age of sixteen, in disarray. In the cocoon of his golden youth of beautiful areas, while the slaying war Europe, he discovered love in the arms of a soldier on leave and at the same time, friendship and delicious ambiguity of the most sensitive worldly, Marcel Proust. But the war had claimed her and Arthur, the loved, the one by whom Vincent's body had revealed himself, fell in battle, leaving her young lover and sorry about the departure. To where? It was the reader to imagine the rest.
I was very touched by this first novel, which reported, with much grace and sensuality, the first stirrings of adolescent love. Writing BESSON, removed, lyrical but controlled rang true (the novels that followed seemed to me more often laborious and not affected). Deciding to read this sequel, it was both want to get a bit of intimacy with the character but also expose themselves to comparison and, as often happens in these cases, to disappointment.

In Back among men, Vincent tells first the slow drift that has, for seven years away from Paris and his family with whom he cut the bridges. Foreign lands, exotic tastes which he barely flavor. The pain of loss has made him a stranger to himself and others and it is in solitude, far from the comforts of Paris, he discovers the world, almost unwittingly following in the footsteps of Rimbaud traveler. And then it will start for the New World, a land of promise where we can reinvent itself and start anew. But we learns quickly, it is impossible to escape his family and his environment and Vincent eventually return to Paris, returning to the void that his years of wandering have been unable to fill.
The first part of the novel is a beautiful travelogue where we find some pleasure with the character of Vincent, solitary, almost mute, a blank page just waiting to be filled. Subsequently, in my case, passes well, and BESSON, wanting to write a novel in the wake of the first, seems to want out at any cost the same patterns (I'll leave it to the effect of household surprise) and finally a bit tired. Ten years ago, I found his writing light, and now it seems increasingly heavy and falsely valuable (the few passages a little sensual curl even literature in rose water). I'm not sure that Besson has radically changed his way of writing. What I am certain that I am no longer the same player a decade ago.
Difficult to advise for or against. Fans of the author's sure to love. Those who read the first in memory may be disappointed.
