31-Mar-11 - 2223M : Málaga, Spain - 'Points of View' by Tony Cragg
View to the Southeast of the 'Points of View' by sculptor Tony Cragg.
Taken on Calle Marqués de Larios at the intersection with Calle Strachan.
These monumental stainless steel sculptures twinkle as the light falls across them. I shall definitely go back to look at these further but our time was too short to do everything justice.
I had two hours this morning to walk down by the river. I have visited so many times I wondered if I would be inspired. Would I find something new? Well it is always different and I was inspired. (Strand-on-the-Green, Chiswick, 21 May 2014)
It's International / National Women's Day today and I see a lot of posts talking about the epitome of a woman. I see a lot of well behaved, courageous, unique and strong-willed women out there who are successful in their variety of field they excel.. I can be a well behaved woman but I can also be this crazy, wacky and unsetting, boisterous woman... I am both depending on my moods! I admire those women who stay steady as modest and behaved specially on social media posts coz I know sometimes my brain often go wacky!!! Oh I'm sarreee..... 03-08-15 #Womanhood #GenderSensitivity #RelationshipGoals #NoteToSelf #Reflection #Positivity #Inspiration #Motivation #PointsOfView #ThoughtsToPonder #LifeQuotes #LifeLessons #LifeStruggles #LifeExperiences #LiveLoveLaugh ❤️💃🏃💡🙌👫💏🙇🙅💭💬👣 - brittonica
Tony Cragg 'Points of View' in Museum Belvédère in Oranjewoud NL.
April - September 2021 in the museum park and in four cabinets of the museum.
In Tony Cragg's sculptures, all the forces of the constantly changing nature seem to converge. When you follow the twists, curves and recesses, the images begin to dance almost before your eyes to the rhythm of shadow and reflecting light. Sometimes the contours of faces and bodies emerge, only to disappear again in the whimsical clustering of shapes. Cragg's images are strongly inspired by natural, organic forms and movements and emphatically invite you to view them from all sides. In 'Points of View' this is possible in the park designed by Michael van Gessel around Museum Belvédère, which is owned by Staatsbosbeheer but is freely accessible. The sculptures can be optimally experienced in the open landscape and against the background of the low, rectangular museum complex.
A collaboration with Tony Cragg was a wish that came true thanks to the enthusiastic cooperation of the artist. Cragg made the selection himself and determined the exact placement of the statues in the museum park. They redefine the landscape and make visitors aware of distances, proportions and sightlines. The west wing of the museum features sculptures made of glass, wood, bronze and plastic, as well as sketches, drawings and watercolors by Tony Cragg.
The museum building is a design of architect Eerde Schippers of Inbo architects, Heerenveen.
The bronze sculpture titled "Points of View" by the British artist Tony Cragg. It is his first public sculpture to be permanently exhibited in Spain. It is to be found on the corner of Calle Marqués de Larios and Calle Strachan in the heart of the city of Málaga.

Today marks the last day of the four day weekend. I headed into Fremantle with my boyfriend to watch the Street Arts Festival only to arrive when they were packing up. As a consequence we didn’t watch any street performers. We walked down the quiet end of Fremantle to walk down quiet little streets and to have a look at the architecture. This is my favourite photograph of our walk.
At the risk of sounding like a pompous arty photographer, I will try to explain what this photograph means and even the story behind it. For anyone who doesn’t know, I am a photographer and more of my work can be viewed over at www.lonefemalephotographer.com. Mostly I take photos for the fun of it, I’m paid to do so or I’m in the middle of a beautiful landscape. On rare occasions will I stop to compose something with meaning. This is one of them.
A few years ago when I completed my Bachelor of Science in Chemistry, I was unceremoniously told that my marks were not sufficient to apply for an Honours program and that research would not be part of my career path. Luckily, I didn’t have my heart set on being a researcher in Chemistry. I was definitely more of a practicing Chemist, one that worked in the lab and I still am to this day. For years I believed that further studies at university was beyond me and I was ashamed of my GPA until someone had a look at them and firmly told me that my marks were more than sufficient to apply for research.
This year, I’ve enrolled in a Masters program and I love it to bits. I don’t care that it means that I will need to study on weekends and nights reducing time available for socialising. It’s not in Chemistry but in Science Communication, an area which I am passionate about. And more importantly, care about. I haven’t reached the research component yet of my Masters. That will come next year and I do hope do complete a PhD in the area. The topic of research is still yet to be chosen.
What has all this got to do with the sign? Everything. My first photo of this sign was uninteresting and boring. It just showed the sign lying on the footpath. This one is taken from another point of view and makes it much more interesting. It also shows the overall landscape of which it is in and tells more of a story, much like the information that I have been given spurring me to take on further studies and to head into research.
It is important to remember when one person says “no” or builds a brick wall, that they are not the only gatekeeper to your goal. There may be another way and often it requires another way of looking at the situation.

"Of course spiritual practice could quite easily be a fantasy, a set of images, legends, doctrines and explanations that might serve to distract us from the fierce reality of our confused desires - offering them a higher and more socially acceptable path for projection to take, a more sophisticated way to freeze ourselves in place than a mere personal ego." - Norman Fischer (Saved from Freezing)

Haida
Masset, Queen Charlotte Islands, B.C.
Mid 19th century
Cedar wood
Gift of Dr. Frank Buller (1844-1905)
McCord Museum of Canadien History
ACC2971
This frontal pole, or gayang, stood at the entrance to the Drum House in the Haida village of Masset on the Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia. This was a dwelling of the Point Town lineage led by the chief whose Haida name translates as "gambling sticks". When this photograph was taken by Richard Maynard in about 1885, only the massive frame of the large house remained standing. The original house was built of split cedar planks and had a decorative scalloped edging along the gables and corner posts. Although many frontal poles were painted, this one apparently never was.
The figures carved on the pole are crests which served as visuals statements of the house chief's ancestry, rights and privileges. The crests on this frontal pole are (from top to bottom): a bear on potlatch cylinders, a standing grizzly bear with extended tongue, a human figure and an eagle between the bear's legs and arms, a standing grizzly with extended tongue holding a frog, and a raven with a long beak holding a humain figure. As there are many variations on the stories associated with particular crests, we cannot be certain of the original meaning of the pole. Today, poles are once again being carved and raised by the Haida in the village of Masset.
