Musée d’Orsay
Nuit des musées européens et découverte de l’exposition Yves Saint-Laurent. Un très bon moment passé dans ce magnifique musée.
Le musée d’Orsay est un musée national inauguré en 1986.
Situé dans le 7e de Paris le long de la rive gauche de la Seine, en surplomb de la promenade Édouard-Glissant, il est installé dans l’ancienne gare d'Orsay, construite par Victor Laloux de 1898 à 1900 et réaménagée en musée sur décision du président de la République Valéry Giscard d'Estaing. Ses collections présentent l’art occidental de 1848 à 1914, dans toute sa diversité : peinture, sculpture, arts décoratifs, art graphique, photographie, architecture, etc. Il est l’un des plus grands musées d’Europe pour cette période.
Le musée possède la plus importante collection de peintures impressionnistes et postimpressionnistes au monde, avec près de 1 100 toiles au total sur plus de 3 650, et l’on peut y voir des chefs-d’œuvre de la peinture et de la sculpture comme Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe et l’Olympia d’Édouard Manet, une épreuve de La Petite Danseuse de quatorze ans de Degas, L'Origine du monde, Un enterrement à Ornans, L'Atelier du peintre de Courbet, Les Joueurs de cartes de Cézanne ou encore cinq tableaux de la Série des Cathédrales de Rouen de Monet et Bal du moulin de la Galette de Renoir.

A portrait built around chance, power, and illusion.
Playing cards, dice, and theatrical makeup merge into a character suspended somewhere between royalty and risk — a queen shaped by the rules of the game.
Photograph taken at Sony Alpha workshop.
A conceptual portrait exploring the tension between chance and control.
The scattered cards, theatrical costume, and hidden identity turn the figure into a symbol rather than a person — a portrait of probability, performance, and the chaos behind calculated risks.

Thanks for looking ... :-)

"A Subtle Tactical Dispute"
A tight crop of the frame eliminates the street crowd, focusing strictly on the central trio and their prop horse, transforming a chaotic festival moment into an intimate, absurd stage play.
Since the characters' faces express the ultimate degree of pensiveness, absurdity, and light melancholy, I decided to create a monologue in the style of classic commedia dell'arte mixed with public square satire.
Characters:
* The Knight (in a deep helmet and chainmail)
* Pierrot (in a red textured suit with a fluffy ruff)
* The Girl in the Wreath (stuck right in the middle)
* The Horse (prop, exhausted)
- The Knight (muffled from under the visor): We need to breach the enemy's right flank. Pierrot, your baked-cherry-colored costume will serve as excellent camouflage in the bushes of... baked cherries. Maiden in the wreath, you provide air support. Horse, wake up! What is our tactical plan?
- Pierrot (sighing mournfully, tilting his head): My only plan is to mourn the imperfection of this world and the lack of funding for our independent theater. And frankly, Sir Knight, why are you giving orders when your armor is just a cooking pot with a spike, and your cavalry is a mop on a stick?
- The Girl in the Wreath (looking suspiciously at the camera): Guys, I get it, it's a medieval teambuilding. But why are we standing on the asphalt in a residential area, watched by three hundred people with iPhones, while this beast... (nods at the horse) ...has been trying to eat my dandelion wreath for the past half hour?
- The Horse (glancing with a cloth eye): First of all, those are not dandelions, it's calendula, I know my herbal medicine. Secondly, Sir Knight weighs as much as a cast-iron bridge, and my running gear consists of just one plastic leg and an extra's word of honor. If we don't head toward the buffet right now, I’m going on strike and turning back into foam rubber.
In the moonlit glow of Halloween night,
Jack Skellington takes to flight,
With swirling skirts and skeleton grace,
Dancing through shadows, a smile on her face.
Her bony hands hold a pumpkin bright,
A beacon of joy in the eerie light,
For Halloween is the happiest time,
Where mischief and magic perfectly rhyme.
With candy in hand and laughter in air,
She twirls through the darkness without a care,
Ghosts and goblins join her cheer,
For Halloween is the best time of year!
In her top hat, with stripes so bold,
She welcomes the young and the old,
For Jack Skellington knows what’s true,
Halloween’s delight is always new!

Back to Methuselah (A Metabiological Pentateuch) is a 1921 series of five plays and a preface by George Bernard Shaw. It was performed by the Los Angeles Repertoy Theater in it's entirety (on two separate nights)- it spans from Adam and Eve into the far, far future).
Elle ne garde pas le temps.
Elle le collectionne.
Chaque horloge derrière elle raconte une heure différente, chaque engrenage semble provenir d'une aventure oubliée.
Dans son univers, les montres ne mesurent pas les minutes : elles indiquent la distance jusqu'au prochain rêve.
Et à voir son sourire, il est probable qu'elle connaisse déjà le chemin.
EN She does not keep time.
She collects it.
Every clock behind her tells a different hour, every gear seems borrowed from a forgotten adventure.
In her world, watches do not measure minutes : they reveal the distance to the next dream.
Judging by her smile, she probably already knows the way.

This full procession of life-sized figurative sculptures showcases Virgil Ortiz’s high-fashion, speculative sci-fi regalia for the Revolt 1680/2180 storyline at the Vladem Contemporary. Arranged along a low display platform against illuminated screen panels, the four figures represent key characters and clans within his futuristic Pueblo narrative.
Figures (Foreground to Background)
Foreground (Right) – The Sleek Obsidian Commander: Positioned closest to the viewer, this figure wears an avant-garde black and silver ensemble. It features a glossy black domed helmet with winged side fins, a structured leather corset, a flowing cape with abstract brushstroke-style graphics, and gleaming chrome-metallic hands.
Second Figure – The Gold Sun-Halo Priestess: Draped in the shimmering metallic gold robes seen in your previous shot, featuring the pale mask and spiked sun-halo crown. The full-length perspective highlights how the draped mantle flows to the floor over a structured gown.
Third Figure – The Feathery Shaman/Warrior: A dark, dramatic figure featuring an intricate mask with spiral cheek motifs, a high collar made of iridescent dark feathers, and a form-fitting textured black robe with blue accented trim.
Background (Left) – The Blue Guardian: Standing at the far end of the lineup, this figure wears a metallic face mask combined with heavy ceremonial robes accented in electric blue patterns and black-and-white Cochiti symbol bands.
Blue Guardian with green face
In Virgil Ortiz’s Revolt 1680/2180 mythology, that green face mask serves both a narrative and symbolic purpose for the futuristic Pueblo faction:
Environmental Survival & Battle Gear: Within the sci-fi lore, the 2180 environment is devastated by Castilian nuclear war and toxic "Blindfall" battlefields. The green visor/mask functions as a high-tech filtration mask and protective headpiece worn by characters (such as the Venutian Soldiers or Rez Spine Watchmen) to survive toxic atmosphere and navigate the fog of war.
Jade & Malachite Motifs: Visually, Ortiz uses vibrant, non-traditional glazes—like jade greens, deep blues, and obsidian blacks—to distinguish different warrior clans, watchmen, and spirit realms. The green skin/mask distinguishes this figure as a specialized defender equipped for futuristic, environmental warfare compared to the gold spiritual commanders or black obsidian warriors.
Composition & Environment
Dynamic Perspective: The three-quarter angled perspective creates a strong leading diagonal line that guides the eye through the entire character roster, emphasizing depth down the gallery hallway.
Lighting: Warm overhead gallery spotlights hit the front surfaces and intricate textures of each costume, juxtaposed against bright white and cyan digital display monitors along the wall.
In Virgil Ortiz’s futuristic Revolt 1680/2180 mythology, this lineup represents an elite coalition of time-traveling warriors, spirit guides, and clan leaders. Together, they form the core defense forces of the Pueblo nation, tasked with preserving Indigenous culture, history, and clay traditions across a multi-century timeline.
Individual Roles in the Coalition
Obsidian Commander (Foreground Right): Functions as a high-tech frontline strategist and vanguard defender. Climaxing in sleek armor, chrome limbs, and aerodynamic headgear, this character represents the technological evolution of Pueblo resistance in the year 2180.
Sun-Halo Priestess (Second from Right): Serves as a spiritual commander and time-portal navigator. Clad in golden ceremonial robes, she connects the ancestral spirit realm to the physical battlefield, channeling energy to guide the resistance.
Feathered Shaman / Scout (Third from Right): Acts as a stealth operative and nature-spirit liaison. Outfitted with bird-like plumage and specialized headwear, this figure moves through atmospheric battlefields to gather intelligence and protect sacred sites.
Blue & Green Guardian (Far Left Background): Functions as an environmental survival specialist and heavy watchman. Equipped with a green filtration visor/mask to endure toxic, post-apocalyptic battlefield conditions ("The Blindfall"), this soldier defends against colonial forces in hostile environments.
The Collective Mission As a collective ensemble within the Continuum: Blindfall, First Strike exhibition, these figures illustrate Indigenous Futurism. They demonstrate that the Pueblo people are not static historical figures, but dynamic, evolving survivors who use technology, spirituality, and art to protect their sovereignty into 2180 and beyond.

Wonderful #psychedelicportrait shoot and great conversation with Canadian production designer Michael Levine whose work is extraordinarily spare and pithy. So beautiful! Turns out we knew loads of people in common in the early 1980s. Michael has worked internationally in Opera, Dance and Theatre for the past forty years - most recently on Madam Butterfly for Bregenz Festival; Turandot Amsterdam; Peter Grimes for Royal Opera, Paris Opera, Teatro Real.
Colours were achieved in studio with mild tweaks in post production.
