A return.
This wall painting was last engaged with in 2015. Since that time the local council has contributed to the composition via layers of their own exterior acrylic paint. Their decisions have been informed by the 2015 work as well as the desire to omit the names of general members of the public who have contributed by adding their names with various colours of aerosol paint. With one action following the other, the layers continue to build, like the clouds moving across the sky. The particular details that comprise the current work are parts, rendered in an aesthetic attempt to acknowledge the sites surroundings.
Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhode
Robin Rhode imagines Austrian composer Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung (Expectation) in Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhode. In partnership with Performa15. Composed in 1909, Erwartung takes the unusual form of a one-act monodrama for a solo soprano, accompanied by a large orchestra. For Rhode, this atonal opera about love, loss, and lamentation, recalled the many hardships experienced by women in South Africa during and after the fall of Apartheid. Originally set in the moonlit, wilderness of the forest, Rhodeâs reproduction of Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhode interprets Times Square itself to be a contemporary forest filled with light emanating from the electronic billboards instead of the moon. The performance takes place in a huge aria with just one soprano and non-speaking performer carrying out the opera, with the sights and sounds of Times Square acting as a Greek Chorus in the background.

With serene and pious expectation John Knox in Geneva Cap awaits in vain a congregation no longer there. This fine carved head sits above the main doorway of the church in Gerrard Street. Despite the signage Knox can't be described as a Street Baptist, more a Street Fighter. Literally and metaphorically Knox is keystone to the building; holding up theologically what was once Gerrard Street Free Church (now Baptist premises). Designed by George Coutts from original plans by Daniel Macandrew the church was opened for worship on 4 February 1900, replacing a more modest structure of 1844. At the time the largely working class congregation was described as "douce sensible folk". This is a grand piece of architecture which sits where was once tenemental and industrial properties, on the eastern side of the city, a far cry from the swish villas further west. The head was probably carved in the yard of Arthur Taylor of Aberdeen.

D60. The sun was shining, so I had to make this picture. I always feel like making pictures when the sun is shining.
I like my intense look, almost asking, of waiting for an answer.
A trained Lab is amazing. They will sit like this for hours waiting for the command to retrieve. Every time a flock of ducks approaches, even at a distance, the dog starts shivering from head to toe with expectation. The hair on his neck stands up, he can barley contain himself; but, he will not move - not the least bit, he will not so much as cock an ear...until the 'command' is given...then he will sping into action, the happiest creature on earth at that particular moment in time. Simply amazing...really amazing...what a true pleasure...
Heard there would be National Guard troops deployed downtown but honestly was a bit disconcerting to see these guys in riot gear with weapons. Guess the authorities have tried to prepare for everything and anything, but still.....
Buffalo Springfield (was thinking CSN&Y - Sorry!) song came to mind - "For What it's Worth"
There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I've got to beware
Think it's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
There's battle lines being drawn again
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong again
Young people speaking their minds once again
So much resistance from behind
Think it's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Never having experienced anything like this the whole thing was more than a litle bit weird.
