Trajes De Luces by Anthony Rubio
As many of you have come to learn, nothing designed by Anthony Rubio is done by accident. His work is quite deliberate making a clear statement about his inspiration and his personal interpretation. Extensive research goes from hours to days spent cultivating and mastering the execution of the final product. His are not just designs of garments but works of meticulously hand crafted art.
Of recent days, Anthony has come to notice an influence in up coming fashions which draws on not just materials or colors but on culture. Though Mr. Rubio "Does Not" condone or support any activity or sport that brings about the killing of any living creature it is the elaborate and flamboyant fashion worn by the "Matador" for the bull fight that has taken him on this new adventure. It is the pomp and premise as well as the celebration that has stirred an interest and ultimately influenced these new works of "Art" by Anthony Rubio.
The traje de luces (suit of lights) is the traditional clothing that Spanish bullfighters (toreros, picadors and rejoneadors) wear in the bullring. The term originates from the sequins and reflective threads of gold or silver. These trajes are based on the flamboyant costumes of the 18th-century dandies and showmen involved in tauromachia, which later became exclusive to the bullfighting ritual. Later adornments include the montera hat, elaborate embroidery and decorative accessories.
For this new and so unique collection, Anthony Rubio has researched the history of the actual garments worn by the matadors and the symbolic colors and traditional tailoring involved in creating such a statement piece like the Chaquetillas (short jackets). All kinds of luxurious materials were combined creating new textures and colors adorned with metallic threads, gilded lace, pearls, crystals and of course the artisan skill to create a form, a shape normally applied to humans only in this case transformed to fit canines. It all culminates in a celebration of the regal yet pompous and egotistical matador.

The Rieme-Oostakker Place of Execution is the place in the Ghent district of Oostakker where 66 resistance fighters were executed by the Naxi occupation force between February 8, 1943 and August 24, 1944.
This memory is also kept alive the 20 resistance fighters who were killed on the execution site at Rieme . That site was destroyed in 1998 during the construction of the Kluizendok of Ghent Port.
The executions were carried out in secret and the victims were buried anonymously. Some of the resistance fighters killed in Rieme was found in a mass grave in Hechtel.
Moreover, there were German soldiers and Belgian criminals also shot. Because of these circumstances, it is still unclear how many people were killed. After the Liberation the mass grave was uncovered in Oostakker. The victims were identified and buried in their hometowns.
The crosses on the ground thus have a symbolic meaning. Nevertheless, the execution place is a cemetery since in 1952 the remains of 15 decapitated West Flemish political prisoners were moved here from their graves in Munich.
On the grounds is a railway carriage which carried hundreds of Belgians to concentration camps in Germany and Poland. In 1966 the execution place gained the status of a protected landscape.
The execution wall between blocks 10 & 11 at Auschwitz - block 11 held cells (the lower windows) where up to a 100 people were crammed in to rooms & not given anything to eat or drink. It also contained tiny 4 people standing cells where people were held. I found the lower block rooms in block 11 to be really sad, dark, depressive & the people held there would have heard the executions on the other side of the wall ....

Some of the more famous Tower prisoners were executed within the Inner Ward of the Tower. There were fewer spectators here, on Tower Green, than for those executions held just north of the Tower on Tower Hill, but there could still be a couple hundred people viewing the "private" execution. Lower-class prisoners who were executed at Tower Hill were usually hanged; beheading was reserved for higher-class or high-profile prisoners. The seven on this sign were all beheaded for treason.
The last person executed at the Tower was Josef Jakobs, a German spy, in 1941 by firing squad.
Triste destin que celui des héros de notre jeunesse... Les balancements grotesques de leurs corps sans vie n'ayant pour origine que les assauts du vent de notre cruauté. Regardez leurs yeux exorbités mesdames et messieurs, n'avez vous donc pas une once de pitié ?
Professionalism, hard work and thoughtful execution are what
Soldiers expect of the acquisition workforce. That, in addition
to materiel, is exactly what the workforce delivered during the
pandemic and now the transition of administrations. (Graphic

If you look carefully, you can see an ominous turn in the road. You can see the photographer's shadow, like a gunman placing the gun on the temple of his victim. You can see Sandra and another Sandra and Sandra's shadow. You can even see the photographer's sleeve. And you can see Manuel's shadow where his eye actually is. All this on a remote road in the Catalan countryside.
