The Texas Centennial Exposition was not only a celebration of Texas independence, but also of Texas and Western culture. The 1936-37 Exposition was also a festival of architecture, which embraced the then-new International style of architecture. Traditionally, worlds fairs are the testing grounds for new ideas in building design; Dallas and its Exposition architects chose to reflect the style of the Exposition Des Arts Decoratifs in Paris in 1925. They were also influenced by the recently completed "Century of Progress" in Chicago (1933-34), where the International style of architecture was prominently displayed.
The significance of Fair Park also extends beyond the architectural theme of the remaining buildings. Fair Park is one of the largest intact grouping of Exposition buildings remaining in the United States. Most World's Fairs or Exposition grounds in the United States have been demolished, except for one or two exceptional buildings. However, many of the original 1936 buildings and open spaces remain today from the Texas Centennial Exposition, even though several were constructed as "temporary" structures.
Fair Park is also significant in terms of urban design, open space design, and artwork and sculpture. The Exposition architecture expressed monumentality in design, but this was reinforced by the open spaces and landscaping that the buildings were sited around. The grounds were planned on two landscape design themes: a Beaux Arts theme that involved grand plazas and vistas that intersected or were terminated by major buildings, and a pastoral theme that used winding paths, random landscaping, and building siting to create a very informal atmosphere. The majority of these open spaces, both formal and informal, exist today in one of America's most well-planned parks. Four major open space areas (and their buildings) still remain: Esplanade of State (Grand Plaza—Esplanade of State—Texas Court of Honor); Agrarian Parkway and The Chute; Federal Concourse (Federal Concourse—Constitution Place—Stadium Plaza); and the Lagoon and Centennial Drive. These spaces combine to create a series of monumental spaces, formal vistas, landscaping, and pastoral images unparalleled in a planned park in Texas and the Southwest.
The sculptures, murals, and other artwork remaining from the Exposition are also significant. Often intended to be "temporary" artwork, they reinforced the monumentality of the buildings and the open space design in Fair Park. Many of the artists studied in Paris; their work remains in exterior spaces as sculpture and murals, and inside many of the buildings in the Park.
The Continental Oil/Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) House was designed by W.R. Brown and constructed in 1936 for the Texas Centennial Exposition as the company's "Hospitality House". Visitors to the Exposition could sit & rest on the verandah of the house or visit the travel bureau inside, which was there to help folks find out about and get to other Centennial events across Texas. In 1938, after the Centennial Exposition and subsequent Pan-American Exposition, the Continental Oil Company donated the house to the Daughters of the American Revolution. This 2-story house in Southern Colonial Plantation style features a 2-story front porch supported by six columns and a balustraded deck over the porch. Inside are historical exhibits and displays of various artifacts donated by or belonging to D.A.R. members. One of the more interesting things to see is a Republic of Texas land grant signed by Sam Houston. On one wall hangs a picture frame full of old buttons and badges dating from around the turn of the century. Among these is an original "Quanah Route Day" badge bearing a likeness of Chief Parker. There are also State Fair badges dating back to 1888 and political buttons picturing Teddy Roosevelt and other politicians of his era.
The Texas Centennial Exposition Buildings (or more commonly referred to as Fair Park or Site of Texas State Fairs) was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on September 24, 1986 for its long standing history described above and includes The Women's Museum above. Most all of the information above was found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration and can be viewed here:

35mm film portrait.
A curious aspect of domestic togetherness - the little belongings. Both my son and daughter have their own glasses, which they assigned themselves in a distant past. They seem to regard this as a central feature of identity. They could have chosen any others, but these are the ones. In Marga's case, it's this orange glass. Bruno uses a blue jug that says “Prague.” I take any, except the orange one or the Czech blue one. But if I think about it, I also have my small attachments. A mug in bad condition, that I bought at the supermarket when I separated, or two coffee cups (among all the coffee cups at home) that my mom gave me.

I was able to combine delivering the car with a quick visit with my daughter and her family. This is their home in coastal South Carolina.

They're not as sharp as should be because of thick, dirty glass and sunlight on it.

My daughter Martynka on the Hollywood Boulevard street, in front of Grauman's Chinese Theater and the handprints of actors from Harry Potter movies :)
Hollywood Boulevard is a major east–west street in Los Angeles, California. In 1958, the Hollywood Walk of Fame was created as a tribute to artists working in the entertainment industry.

The street has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Hija del teatro / Theater's daughter
This image is such a pride for me and mostly because it was all done intuitively. Last week I went to Gamboa with some friends to shoot in the tropical wood.. Nothing planned, we just had some dresses and a shirt for a friend. We did some images and after that another friend of mine asked us to go this theater that was very close.
In there I actually had no big intentions cause I already had my images taken, then I saw Melanie with this dress in the middle of this theater with a beautiful window light on her and I instantly new I needed to try something.
As I'm still working in my Home series and I want in every concept to mix inside and outside.. I new I wanted to replace the walls with something else.
In home I started replacing with some forest shots, tropical rainy leaves.. But something didn't click. After that I tried a couple of tree images in the back and then started adding fog and that was it.
Fog is something I love
