The exhibition Red Wealth. Soviet Design 1950-1980 illustrates the history of Soviet design in a fascinating overview. Consumer culture was a stranger to communism until the 1950s. This started changing in 1959 when an exhibition in Moscow presented the American Way of Living.

Kasteel Ravesteijn (Est. 1250). De eerste houten versterking werd hier vermoedelijk al rond het jaar 1100 gebouwd. In 1254 als heerlijkheid 'Heenvliet' van Hugo van Voorne, de eerste heer van Heenvliet'.
Het hoofdgedeelte bestond uit een voor de 13e eeuw zeer zwaar uitgevoerde donjon met vier hoektorens die op een hoogte was gebouwd waaromheen een gracht was gegraven. Deze had zowel een militaire als een woonfunctie. De toegangspoort werd beschermd met een valhek. In de 14e en in de 15e eeuw werd het kasteel uitgebreid met delen die een meer comfortabele bewoning mogelijk maakten.
Nadat het in de Tachtigjarige Oorlog in 1572 door de watergeuzen was vernield werd het slot niet meer hersteld, de kelders van de imposante ruïne bleven echter nog meer dan een eeuw in gebruik als gevangenis. Volgens sommigen heeft, voor de ruïnering van het kasteel, de van ketterij beschuldigde Heenvlietse pastoor Merula hier een tijdje gevangengezeten - Heenvliet/NL

René Lalique (1860-1945)
France, c. 1903-1904
Ivory, horn, gold and topaz
18 x 16 cm
Inv. no. 1211
The body of this beautiful diadem consists of two orchids in horn and one in ivory, while a small drop-shaped topaz appears in the centre of the ivory flower. The three-pronged comb is also in horn and connected to the diadem by a gold hinge
Lalique first exhibited a bracelet made of horn at the 1896 Salon. Following its success, he continued to produce jewels in horn and ivory during the following years.
The exotic orchid was one of the flowers that symbolised the aesthetic movement of the late nineteenth century. Art Nouveau jewellers handled the subject with great realism, which is heightened in this case by René Lalique’s technical mastery. He started from the real flower yet managed to imbue it simultaneously with elegance and a powerful erotic charge.
Gulbenkian bought it from Rene Lalique in 1904.

Museum explanation belonging to the previous shown 1993 SEAT Ibiza Serie II Twin Cam 16V.
It is always nice to see a car in a museum other than a specific car museum. You don't expect to find them there, and it proves another way of acceptation and appreciation of motor vehicles. Finally many designers and other artists have contributed to elevate the esthetically level of our daily transporters, and therefor our approach to them.
The 1984 Ibiza Serie I was the pride of the Seat company because it proved Seat was able to develop a grown-up car independently of the mighty Fiat for the first time.
This 1993 Ibiza Serie II was more or less the pride of the Volkswagen Group because this car was the first new Seat car made under the new Volkswagen regime.
This new Ibiza was built on the VW A03 platform, also used for the later VW Polo MK3.
It was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro.
This object description belonged to the 1993 Ibiza which was on display in the Museu del Disseny de Barcelona. This museum has really a great collection of applied arts. I really can recommend it.
Production Ibiza Series II: 1993-2002 (minor facelift in 1996 and again in 1999).
Number seen: I didn't count... (in fact much to new for me).

"Keith Haring: The Political Line" exhibition, Sep.20, 2015 – Feb.7, 2016.
"The Political Line" is a major exhibition on the life and work of influential American artist and activist Keith Haring (1958-1990). With his unmistakably unique style, Keith Haring, a protégé of Andy Warhol, spawned a revolution in art during the 1980s.
The foyer is situated in the gallery constructed on the arches over the Winter Canal to the design of Yuri Velten in 1783 as a covered passage way linking the Great Hermitage and the Hermitage Theatre. The foyer decor was completed in 1902 to the design of Leonty Benois who managed to make it look unusual and refined at the same time. The gallery is decorated in the Rococo style known also as the style of the French king Louis XV. The splendid garlands of plants, scrolls and rocailles frame the inserts of paintings, cover the cove, decorate the wall panels, edge up the windows and doors. Through the large French windows supplying the gallery with bright light visitors may enjoy splendid views of the Neva River and the Winter Canal.
