O IFOP na Cachoeira do Gato

Se data estivesse no planejamento anual da instituição,  não teria dado tão certo !

- Essa foi a sensação que tive ao compatilhar alguns momentos  muito agradaveis com a companheirada do IFOP. Com presença de diversos membros e seus  familiares, todos  pudemos desfrutar de um delicioso churrasco  e mais o frescor da Cachoeira do Gato, em  Patrocínio do Muriaé;

Radical Muslin Brothers Taking Cairo

-
We’re watching history repeating itself.
We watched as Jimmy Carter verbally and politically escorted Ayatollah Khomeini and his Revolutionary Guards into Tehran and now we’re watching Obama verbally and politically escorting Mohamed ElBaradei (the UN nuclear loser) and his Radical Muslim Brotherhood into Cairo.
-
As the Radical Muslims take over Lebanon, North Africa, Palestine, Pakistan and continue to wage major wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Obama chooses to ignore the world disorder in his State of The Union Speech last week and he continues to avoid acknowledging that Radical Islam is waging World War against us.
-
Apparently calling this world war that has been launched against us a “War on Terrorism” might make our enemies upset. We never had that issue before with any previous President of the US! We could sure use a man like Theodore Roosevelt again!
-
Obama’s “reaching out” and KowTowBowing to our enemies has emboldened them and they have consolidated their efforts to attack us and our friends with an increasingly violent and ever widening front. Something about Chamberlain and Hitler!
-
And to reflect that we had to listen to Obama and Hillary denigrating Condoleezza Rice and her conduct of foreign affairs. What a pathetic memory!
-
What a sad sight watching Americans scrambling to escape from a country that has been a friend and ally for many years. Wonder what the Israeli’s are thinking today?
-
So you keepers of the Democrat and Left-wing view: Are we and the world safer now than we were two years ago?
-
So much for Obama and his’ Hope and Change!
And N0 Mr. Democrat Congressman Moran from Northern Va, it's not his skin that's a problem, it's his thoughts, views, policy, decisions and choices that make him unsuited to be President of the US!

VARDA CAIVANO'S NEW PAINTINGS AT VICTORIA MIRO IN LONDON

Craig Garrett


Catherine Lampert


crowd at the opening

Press Release:

Victoria Miro is delighted to announce an exhibition of new paintings by Varda Caivano, her second solo show with the gallery. Evocative, elusive, and exuding a quiet confidence, Caivano's paintings present a series of explorations of the medium and the language of abstraction. In her practice, abstraction undergoes a rigorous examination, reinforcing this painterly territory as fluid, undetermined, and open for constant re-evaluation.

Caivano's works are the result of an extensive decision-making process, each brushstroke and colour conceived in relation to the one that came before within the particular space of the canvas. Yet arrived at is not simply an object - a painting - but an encounter: with memory, desire, emotion; something within grasp yet just out of reach. Conveying a sense of the improvised, each canvas contains it's own painterly journey - the collection of marks in unision reveal the whole as greater than the sum of its parts.

The artist's subtle play between surface and depth, material and image, colour and texture registers a tension between the familiar and the unknown, akin to an experience of language forgotten and almost remembered, or a melody lodged deep in the unconscious. Suggestive of liminal spaces, each work bears a decentralised composition held together by its own resonant energy: paint is pushed and pulled across the canvas, built up and withdrawn, lapses and drifts and, suddenly, announces its place. Importantly, time is key to the making and viewing of Caivano's works, as the structure of her paintings is seemingly always in transition, something that unfolds and is still unfolding.

Varda Caivano was born in 1971 in Buenos Aires, Argentina and graduated from Royal College of Art in 2004 with an MA in Painting. Her paintings are included in the British Art Show 7: In the Days of the Comet, which will be on view in London at the Hayward Gallery from 16 February. Other recent exhibitions include Collection 2 - Focus on Recent Acquisitions, National Gallery of Osaka, Japan (2010); Resonance, Suntory Museum, Osaka, Japan (2010); East End Academy: The Painting Edition, Whitechapel Gallery, London (2009); M25 Around London, CCA Andratx Art Centre, Majorca, Spain (2008); Busan Biennale, South Korea (2008); Very Abstract and Hyper Figurative, curated by Jens Hoffmann, at Thomas Dane Gallery (2007); and solo exhibitions at Chisenhale Gallery, London (2007) and Kunsterverein Freiburg (2006). Varda Caivano is a recent recipient of the prestigious Abbey Award, British School at Rome and she will take up the fellowship during 2011.

Giant Rose Parade Along Snow York's Park Avenue

I was surprised yesterday to see this awesome stainless steel and fiberglass garden along Park Avenue from 57th Street and up.   Past the slush and snow mounds, I was able to snap some photos of these delightful specimens.  They remind me of decorative cupcakes dusted with confectioner's sugar.  What a nice contrast against the snow!  I hope this means that spring will be debuting soon in Snow York.  The roses will stick around through May. Three cheers to artist, Will Ryman, for his whimsical artwork.  And I just love that Lady Bug on top.
