Artwork by Félix González-Torres. The most pervasive reading of Gonzalez-Torres's work takes the processes his works undergo (lightbulbs expiring, piles of candies dispersing, etc.) as metaphor for the process of dying. One of his most recognizable works, Untitled(1992) is a billboard put up in New York City of a monochrome photograph of an unoccupied bed, made after the death of his lover, Ross, to AIDS.
I've never got this near to mistletoe - unless its been cut and in bunches for sale - so it was good to see it's structure as a parasitic plant up close.
I am not sure but there is something re-assuring in the way this man looks. Or in the way he is. Something tender and wise.
Felbrigg Hall, Norfolk.
The National Trust.
Grade l listed.
The Great Hall - South Bay Window - detail.
Glass amassed in the mid 19th century by William Howe Windham (1802-1854).
William Howe Windham had the four windows of the Great Hall of the south wing fitted out in 1840 with a collection of medieval, Renaissance and nineteenth-century glass which was installed by John Dixon of Norwich.
One of the finest 17th-century houses in Norfolk, Felbrigg Hall was the home of the Windham family and its successors for 300 years. The house itself has a distinguished and varied pedigree. The Jacobean entrance front, built mainly in 1620, is attributed to Robert Lyminge (d1628). A west wing was added in 1674-86 to the designs of William Samwell (1628-1676), with interior plasterwork by Edward Goudge. In 1751-56 the Palladian architect James Paine (1717-1789) designed a service wing, Gothic library, staircase and several rooms, with interior decoration by Joseph Rose (1745-1799). In 1840, the great hall was remodelled in a neo-Jacobean style by John Chessell Buckler (1793-1884) and George Buckler (1811-1886).
