Ahí la vemos, asomada a su ventana y vislumbrando las calles de Manhattan. Ruth Orkin, artista, cineasta, fotógrafa y cronista de la época que le tocó vivir. Una gran fotógrafa y una mujer artista que hay que conocer y valorar, ya lo verás en el vídeo. Míralo, disfrútalo

There she is at her window glimpsing at the streets of Manhattan far below. Ruth Orkin, artist, photographer, filmmaker and chronicler of her times. A great photographer I would say and a woman artist that must be talked about and valued. In any event, you will see it all in the video. Watch, enjoy!

I’ll start by saying that both his parents were artists, his father somewhat of a post-impressionist and his mother somewhat of an art informel or what in the US would be called «abstract impressionism». Therefore, although it is said that Klein received no formal training in art, he had to have had more than enough training at home. No one is completely self-taught. He probably started painting around 1946 after graduating from the Merchant Marine Academy. In 1948 he joined the Rosicrucian Society… Yves was born in Nice, France in 1928… He was a part of the French artistic movement called Nouveau réalisme, which was founded by art critic Pierre Restany in 1960… Klein played a key part in the development of performance art, minimal art and pop art… He developed International Klein Blue…
Yves Klein is not one of my favourite artists, however I have included him here because he is a part of art history, albeit a part that has not really provided much to art or to history. And maybe one that can be replaced by so many talented artists not included. His paintings are insipid and boring and his musical composition, Monotone Silence Symphony of 1949, (apparently he did not know the definition of a symphony), was nothing more than one chord, sustained for twenty minutes followed by twenty minutes of silence. It was quite obvious he knew nothing of music as anyone can write a «symphony» like that. To subject an audience to such a «concert» would be criminal…
I’ll leave you with a sample that will introduce you to his entire work…

Think original art, original designs, something only you…and perhaps a few others…have… Now think of Fine Art America, the only company that reproduces my original designs/artwork into fine art prints of many types and other items as well… This one is the framed print of «Sea Inspiration», a surreal-expressionist view of the painter at work and what is on his mind to create. Check out my gallery at Fine Art America, and do it often as I often change the images… This is a great way to own original/unique art at very affordable prices.

Art Digital no es IA, es una herramienta, pero hay que usarla para currarse la obra… Las obras viven en un mundo digital hasta que se imprimen en tela, papel, cartulina, madera, metal o en lo que te de la gana… Disfrutad.

Art Digital is not AI. Yes, it is a tool, but one that you use to actually create by your own hand, a finished product… The works of Art Digital live in a digital world until they are printed on canvas, paper, wood, metal or on whatever you want… Enjoy.

De todos los años que viví en EEUU, los que mas disfrute fueron en Miami, pero los mas significativos en términos de cultura, entretenimiento y simple gozo de vida fueron en Nueva York. La «Gran manzana» del continente Americano es, sin duda alguna, una de mis ciudades preferidas. Y os digo que el Central Park (Parque central) de Manhattan es, para mi, el mejor parque urbano que he visto, y mira que he visto algunos, especialmente aquí en Europa donde todas las ciudades se jactan de tener el parque mas atractivo, grande, hermoso.
Nueva York es la epitome de la experiencia estadounidense. Es la ciudad que mas ejemplifica el llamado «sueño americano». Es una ciudad única en EEUU, y en el continente americano, porque ha logrado unir pueblos, culturas, razas etcetera etcetera y entre todas han creado una urbe cosmopolita, vibrante y sui generis. No hay otra ciudad en EEUU como Nueva York y si no la conoces, tío, coge un avión y vete a conocerla que es una autentica pasada y gozada. New York es la leche…
Desde Battery Park a Harlem, del East River al Hudson, del Upper East Side a Alphabet City, subiendo a Tribeca, SoHo, Greenwich Village, Gramarcy Park, cruza el East River y vete a Brooklyn, a Queens, a Staten Island, después a la estatua de la Libertad. Venga que New York no tiene desperdicio. Coge por Park Avenue, la quinta avenida, Madison Avenue, o cualquiera otra en Mid-Town Manhattan y encontraras restaurantes, bares, patisseries, charcuteries, y todo lo que quieras. Y ni he mencionado las delicias que te encontrarás Downtown! Mare meua! Pero basta, ahora te toca a ti, dale y luego me contarás…
Una de las canciones de amor más bellas que he oído… Compuesta por Pablo Milanés en 1970… Dedicada a Yolanda Benet, la que era su pareja en ese momento… Resulta que en 1990 la banda de New Wava española Danza Invisible…de la movida madrileña de los años 1980…la grabó y la incluyó en su disco Catalina, el séptimo de la banda. Aquí os dejo ambas versiones de esta canción que se hizo mas famosa que su propio compositor…
