Maillol est né à Banyuls-sur-Mer (Pyrénées-Orientales), petite ville du Roussillon. Il a fait ses études secondaires à Perpignan (Lycée François Arago), puis artistiques à Paris, à l' École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts et a eu pour maître le sculpteur renommé Antoine Bourdelle. Son travail est considéré comme annonciateur d'œuvres comme celles d'Henry Moore ou Alberto Giacometti, et son style onirique revenant vers le classicisme restera un modèle jusque vers la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.
Moins connu comme peintre, Maillol est passé à la postérité pour ses sculptures de bronze, fondues par Eugène Rudier, il n'a commencé celles-ci que vers l'âge de 40 ans. Ses premiers travaux, de tapisserie, ont été réalisés à Banyuls-sur-Mer, sous l'influence artistique de contemporains comme Pierre Puvis de Chavannes ou Paul Gauguin.
Dina Vierny, muse de Maillol durant une dizaine d'années - qui avait été sauvée de la déportation grâce à l'entremise d'Arno Brecker et de Maillol - a depuis le décès de Maillol entrepris de diffuser son œuvre, via sa Fondation et le musée Maillol, à Paris.

The Gallery Group at the Art Institute of Jacksonville is pleased to announce the opening of The Handshake on January 30, 2009 from 6PM-9PM. The Handshake features the works of artists Jason Boyer (Richmond, VA) and Robert Ryan (Asbury Park, NJ). Catalog of exhibition with a limited edition CD will be available at the opening.
The works of Jason Boyer and Robert Ryan display a quest for knowledge through the individual’s relationship with universal symbols. The images describe a struggle between an alienation and a dependency on the universal for transcendence.
Below is an excerpt from the catalog:
“The Handshake exhibit is an introduction, the work of two meeting for the first time. Jason Boyer and Robert Ryan were, until now, strangers. The work on the wall is a visible manifestation of an introduction, an agreement, and perhaps, an obscure association. Boyer and Ryan seem to have an allegiance to the unknown. They belong to the club of visionaries, mystics, shaman, the priestly class. They are the makers of dreams manifest. Boyer and Ryan are both painters, musicians, and tattooers. Both are fascinated by the oppositions of the known versus the unknown, extensions of the individual expressed in both the macro and the micro.”
I made this paper as a base for a book I want to construct. It's acrylic on paper and the paper will be cut in four pieces to make 8 pages of a ringbound book. Feel free to use the paper in your art or alter it digitally. Enjoy!
I've been planning this photo for weeks, and now finally I had enough time to make it, I hope you like it :) The model is my sister.
Converted from the former Supreme Court building and City Hall, the national art gallery is now open to public. A cool nice place to visit ,opened on 24 November 2015, it oversees the world’s largest public collection of Singapore and Southeast Asian art, consisting of over 8,000 artworks.
This shot was taken from Ng Teng Fong roof garden, another aerial view over the singapore CBD skyline.
Crack the Whip is a simple outdoor children's game that involves physical co-ordination, and is usually played in small groups, either on grass or ice. One player, chosen as the "head" of the whip, runs (or skates) around in random directions, with subsequent players holding on to the hand of the previous player. The entire "tail" of the whip moves in those directions, but with much more force toward the end of the tail. The longer the tail, the more the forces act on the last player, and the tighter they have to hold on.
As the game progresses, and more players fall off, some of those who were previously located near the end of the tail and have fallen off can "move up" and be in a more secure position by grabbing onto the tail as it is moving, provided they can get back on before some of the others do. There is no objective to this game other than the enjoyment of the experience.

Started painting this way after the bombing in Paris, it effected me so much that I could not paint the way I had earlier, with my flowers.
This led to seven canvas depicting what was happening in our world and how it altered my art temporarily
