Duchamp may have met Maria Martins as early as 1943, when her sculp- tures were paired with paintings by Mondrian in a show at the Valentine Gallery on 57th Street. She would have been forty-three at the time-thir- teen years younger than he was. By 1946 their relationship had advanced considerably, judging from the original art work that was included in the Boîte-en-valise he gave her. The originals in most of the early Valises had been Duchamp's hand-painted color guides, made to assist the printer of the collotype reproductions. For Maria Martins, however, he had done a sur- passingly strange drawing on celluloid backed with black satin: an abstract, flowing, amoeba-like shape that resembled nothing else in his entire oeuvre. Not until 1989 did chemical analysis disclose that his drawing medium was ejaculated seminal fluid. Duchamp's title for this erotic talis- man was Paysage fautif, or Faulty Landscape.
I like the feeling of these artworks. Jeroen Jongeleen is one of my favorite street artists >>>
With his project ‘The Street as a Form for Democracy‘, Jeroen Jongeleen seeks to add an additional layer of meaning onto the skin of the Utrecht outdoors. He collects fragments of text from various long-read news sources that he encounters during his daily morning readings on his smartphone. These fragments address the big and darker topics that dominate today’s headlines.
The articles from which they are drawn deal with subjects such as: populism’s explosive political rise, corruption, the melting polar ice caps and their consequences, pervasive pollution, ongoing wars that batter the people, the expanding surveillance state and its impact on us, and other threats knocking at our door. All of these news topics serve as potential sources from which Jongeleen plucks his sentences.
The Symbolism in Morgan Le Fay (Frederick Sandys, 1864)
It's the eponymous sorcerer caught mid sorcer. And very nefarious she looks too. The paper is an art-historical analysis of the picture. You need to create a free account at JSTOR; I've had no trouble over the years.
