The World of Stonehenge
(February to July 2022)
Towering above the Wiltshire countryside, Stonehenge is perhaps the world's most awe-inspiring ancient stone circle.
Shrouded in layers of speculation and folklore, this iconic British monument has spurred myths and legends that persist today. In this special exhibition, the British Museum revealed the secrets of Stonehenge, shining a light on its purpose, cultural power and the people who created it.
Following the story of Britain and Europe from 4000 to 1000 BC, visitors learned about the restless and highly connected age of Stonehenge – a period of immense transformation and radical ideas that changed society forever.
The human story behind the stones revealed itself through a variety of fascinating objects. Among these were stone axes from the North Italian Alps, stunning gold jewellery and astonishing examples of early metalwork including the Nebra Sky Disc – the world's oldest surviving map of the stars. A remarkably preserved 4,000-year-old timber circle dubbed Seahenge also took centre stage in the show, on loan for the very first time. All these objects offered important clues about the beliefs, rituals, and complex worldview of Neolithic people, helping to build a vivid sense of life for Europe's earliest ancestors.
Informed by ground-breaking recent archaeological and scientific discoveries, this landmark exhibition offered new insight on one of the world's great wonders, bringing the true story of Stonehenge into sharper focus than ever before.

When I first saw this picture I know I had to paint it, full credit to the original artist, it is a masterpiece. Bursting out of the Colosseum, on the left you have the elements of history and tradition, and on the right you have the future, which looks like a space craft, and in the middle you have the Centurion, signalling, forward...the past and future being lead by the present, how it should be.
Working full time as well, this picture may take me 3 to 4 days to complete, every night I will post more & more stages to completion. If you click on the Slideshow link below you can watch a Slideshow showing the many stages in the painting of the picture, iv uploaded 11 so far, it may take as many as 30 until im happy with it. Every night if you click on the same link you will see the new additions automatically added to the slidehow, giving you an insight into how 3D Paintings are created.

As with all civilisations, nations & empires, its not how strong you are, its what you stand for that counts , it is these values, not military might & brute force, that determines longevity & prosperity.
Many things have been said about the Romans, the recent film released 2010 entitled Centurion is a good example, as was Spartacus, and the birth & life of Jesus Christ. When all is said & done the Romans lasted an aweful long time, they must have been doing something right.
There demise was started with the emergence of a movement that put forth to mankind a much higher set of values, not a stronger military force. That movement is Christianity.
The Roman civilisation tried to Adapt, tried to absorb, but its decline was inevitable. The Catholic Church is what remains of the Roman branch of Christianity.

i took my western landscape history students on a field trip today through parts of sonoma county -- we stopped just outside of Sebastopol to check out the transformation of local agriculture from being dominated by apple orchards (right) to vineyards (left) -- we literally were standing in a driveway looking at these two fields on either side.
as much as i like wine, the take-over of these lands by grapevines is a little disturbing -- it's a much more intense kind of agriculture than orchards, and gives the area a completely different feeling -- we were standing on the Gravenstein Highway, after all, named for the local apple variety, but with fewer and fewer orchards each year...
if you click on Flickr's map feature for this image (and zoom in), you can really see the two fields distinctly from the aerial photo...

NO LONGER EMPTY, a not for profit group that places high quality art exhibitions in vacated store fronts throughout New York City, is pleased to announce the launch of its second project in the (yet to be leased) retail space of The Caledonia under the recently opened High Line.
To reflect the revitalization of the meat packing area in general and the High Line in particular, the exhibition will reflect this urban regeneration through art works selected to reflect a theme of transformation.
Reflecting Transformations references the regeneration of the area and the transformative nature that art can have on a community. This group exhibit also reflects the minimalist aesthetic that the blank slate of a new development can afford.
NO LONGER EMPTY was conceived as a meeting point between art and the economic crisis. The organization seeks to provide a challenging platform to artists and to revitalize the empty commercial spaces by creating more traffic and showing the sites filled with positive energy instead of being just one more empty storefront in the city. We also want to support the local business community of each area through the increased flow of visitors that these exhibitions will bring.
Notes on the artists:
Yoko Ono
Conceptual and fluxus artist, Yoko Ono, will present a work from her series of space transformations which, as the artist has said, work mainly as an invocation “to constructing in your head”. The installation being presented in this exhibition will consist of security barriers which delineate a specific site in the space chosen for transformation together with the sign "SPACE TRANSFORMER IS BEING BUILT”. The installation will be accompanied by take away cards which continue the concept as one goes through the city with the invocation to be a “SPACE TRANSFORMER”.
Cao Fei
Cao Fei, aka China Tracy, has made one of the more worthwhile visual creations to come out of the popular virtual reality website, Second Life. Her practice focuses on developing the relationships and technical possibilities of film, animation and the internet to depict the swift and radical cultural changes such technology permits and fosters.
Cao Fei has developed a unique pictorial language which superimposes reality and fiction in ways such sites as Second Life makes it ever harder to distinguish. "This artwork is part of the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation (CIFO) in Miami."
Alyson Shotz
Creates works in a variety of media, from large-scale installations to digital photography. Her work focuses on making palpable the shape of space and inhabits a tradition of seeing our culture through the perception of nature.
Shotz will present a large scale light reflecting wall drawing which consists of computer renderings of virtual space transformed into a two dimensional drawing made out of needles and threads which reflect the light. The final work constitutes a reformulation of volume into a two dimensional work.
Her reflective pieces shift the viewer’s apprehension of space and architecture changing constantly in response to light, movement and the presence of the viewer.
U-Ram Choe
U-Ram Choe's work engages a fanciful dialog of aesthetics and machinery, explores themes of biological transformation, flight, and movement. In his recent work, large-scale metal and plastic automata materialize with such a delicacy and weightlessness that it seems to take on the shape and silhouette of an organic life form. Motors, heat and light sensitive materials add to the intricacy of Choe's kinetic sculptures. For this installation Choe will present “Jet Hiatus” first observed at an airplane scrap site in the Mojave Desert, is regarded as an inorganic creature mutated from the microscopic machine living in a gas turbine engine
Stephanie Rothenberg
Stephanie Rothenberg uses performance, video, and net-based media to create interactive situations that question relationships between individuals and socially constructed identities, lifestyles and public spaces. Referencing corporate models and their infrastructures, her work merges popular forms of advertising and market research with participatory experiences involving role-playing and fantasy. The video is a collaboration with Jeff Crouse and Annie Ok, co-director.
Sean Slemon
"Light Beam at 7 am" is a site specific installation which shows the viewer in material form what the potential sunlight could be in the Caledonia space, if the sun was not blocked by tall buildings on the opposite side of the street. The light beam installation will be constructed from construction plywood-converting an industrial material back into a natural occurrence. The plywood beam has the four edges open by a half inch, to allow bright light to flow out of them, as they run from the window to the floor. Eight fluorescent lights light up the 20 ft length of the beam.
Suzanne Song
Suzanne Song’s painting with its minimalist aesthetic is at once meditative and transformative of the notion of space and volume on the surface of the canvas. Architectural space and depth seem to be suggested by the subtlest application of paint summoning presence from a void or possibility from nothing. As the artist states: I am interested in the principles of illusion- its contradictions and paradoxes- and how illusion can be replicated to reveal a multifaceted dimension.”
Siebren Versteeg
Multi-media artist Siebren Versteeg often writes a code, goes to bed, and wakes in the morning to see what the computer created over night randomly choosing images. His works explore ideas of connectivity in our global culture, the tautological nature of material and immaterial information, and the human spiritual condition in relation to the advancement of technology. Versteeg linked together a Napster marketing slogan “Have everything and own nothing” to the teaching of eastern philosophy and Buddhism, this seemed very apt to some of the important paradoxes of the technical age - letting go, holding on.
