"Abstract Expressionism New York"
Travelling show curated (& owned) by Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) ~ New York City USA
Animals are at the centre of Franz Marc’s paintings. For him, they embodied an original state of harmony with creation. To illustrate their pure and peaceful nature, he often depicted them lying on the ground, sleeping. This painting shows his own dog, the white shepherd mix Russi. The work marks a stylistic shift away from lifelike renderings towards experimentation with colour and form. Here, he was particularly interested in how the perception of the white tones in the fur changes against the likewise white snow cover, and how the colours influence each other. The dog’s stylised form is inspired by the Cubists’ angular design, which Marc had previously seen in exhibitions.
A male, who is walking or trying to dance. He had a strange approach in his behaviors that made me to give this name in the painting. It was created in quick poses for 5 or 10 minutes pose. It was a very interested practice that I tried to show all my feelings for model and the occasion.Movement, frustration, dance, self egoism, narcissism etc .It is a piece of personal experimentation/expressionism.
Rudolph Steiner House was designed by Montague Wheeler (1874-1937) and built in two parts, the hall between 1924-6, and the remainder between 1931-2.
Cast in-situ concrete, faced in Granolithic concrete blocks. Roof not visible. Asymmetrical composition of four storeys. 3 regular bays to left under segmental pediment. Irregular fenestration of central. sections reflects staircases behind. Three under-spaced bays to right. Square mullion casements to upper floors with square panes. Round - arched openings to ground floor with, to right expressionist segmental curved shopfront under coved hood mould.
Interior a powerful composition centred on the hall built to stage performances of 'Eurythmy', the expression of the spirit through physical movement of the building: sinuous expressionistic curves implying movement. This is seen in the irregular angles and curves of the hall proscenium and windows, but most particularly in two staircases animatic in the life given to the concrete structure. This was achieved by first building models in clay, a medium much favoured by Steiner himself.
The Rudolf Steiner House is the headquarters of a power international movement that from the first expressed its ideology in architecture. This is the strongest English example of Steiner's unique architecture idiom best known at his goethenaum near Basle. The building stands also as an almost unique British example of the symbolic expressionism prevalent in German art before and after World War I.

City Hall
The term Brick Expressionism (German: Backsteinexpressionismus) describes a specific variant of expressionist architecture that uses bricks, tiles or clinker bricks as the main visible building material. Robert Natus was an Estonian architect. His best known work is the current City Hall of Tallinn, built in 1932
Original oil / acrylic painting, abstract expressionism, with white wood frame, 21-3/4" X 21-3/4". No.46
I must upload the measurements of my paintings but this one is quite overbearing. However I made a compositional error when positioning the pot. I had no room to fit the flowers in and in a radical experiment I gave life to the heads of the plants by the way of smily faces. The bottom of the painting is the dark zone where I've shaded accordingly to the top of the painting but it is too vast to make sense of it. I think the bottom half would have benefitted from a reflection and self shadow of the overbearing pot and highlighted the plant heads.
