Anish Kapoor in Pitzhanger Manor, optical tricks with mirrors and metal
Anish Kapoor
(March to August 2019)
Within the newly restored gallery, with its three circular skylights, Kapoor’s sculptures challenge our traditional notion of form and space by disorientating the viewer and transforming their surroundings.
These sculptures echo Soane’s complex use of mirrors and light and will enable visitors to Pitzhanger to see Soane’s architecture from a fresh perspective.
[Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery]
Pitzhanger Manor was bought by Sir John Soane (1753-1837) in 1800. He demolished most of George Dance's building but retained the southern extension, replacing the main block with one of his own design. In the same year Soane employed John Haverfield to produce new designs for the grounds which were delivered by September 1800 (guidebook). The new mansion was used to display Soane's art collection and for entertaining, his Lincoln's Inn house being retained as the family residence. By 1809 Soane was only occasionally at Pitzhanger and in June of that year he instructed James Christie to sell the house and the estate. Once again the property passed through a series of owners until, in 1843, it was sold to the politician Spencer Walpole and became the home of his four unmarried sisters-in-law, the daughters of the Rt Hon Spencer Perceval. Prior to the death aged ninety-five of the last-surviving Perceval sister, Frederika, in May 1900, her nephew, Sir Spencer Walpole, had begun negotiations with Ealing District Council for the sale of the house and the estate. The sale negotiations were completed early in January 1900 and, following Miss Perceval's death, alterations were carried out. The then Borough Surveyor, Charles Jones, was responsible for the designs for the alterations to the house and grounds and in April 1902 the building was opened as a public library. At the time of the sale, the property was variously referred to as Manor House Park (Middlesex County Times, 19 May 1900) and Perceval Park (Middlesex County Times, 28 July 1900). The name Walpole Park was adopted after communications between the last owner and Ealing Borough Council towards the end of 1900.
Further major alterations to the library building were completed by 1940 and then, in 1984, the Central Library was moved to new premises in Ealing. The following year a continuing programme of restoration and repair to both the mansion and the grounds began. The restored manor house was reopened as a museum and centre for cultural events in the late 1990s. The grounds continue (2000) in the ownership of the London Borough of Ealing.

La bella location di Marina dei Cesari di Fano (PU) ha così ospitato Il primo corso sperimentale della K38 Italia per l’utilizzo di un innovativo “SUP Rescue” che la Moki ha deciso di commercializzare già per la prossima stagione.
Le due giornate hanno fornito una serie di importanti informazioni relative alla creazione di apposite linee guida da condividere non solo al Bagnino/Assistente bagnanti più esperto ma soprattutto a quelli più inesperti o consapevoli che un ausilio non complicato da utilizzare possa essere fondamentale per la propria ed altrui incolumità, primario interesse della K38 Italia.
In considerazione dei rispettivi ruoli professionali, il primo passaggio è stato affidarsi a Enzo Maggi, Istruttore SUP dell’ISA, il quale ha fornito agli allievi presenti i fondamenti del SUP classico, necessari per accrescere ed ottimizzare l’utilizzo di questa tavola gonfiabile.
La seconda giornata è stata dedicata allo studio delle possibili tecniche di soccorso e di recupero, affrontando i diversi aspetti più classici che un soccorritore deve essere pronto ad affrontare.
Anche se il meteo e la temperatura non fossero prettamente “primaverili”, la buona intesa tra il Team formato di Allievi e Istruttori di diverse discipline, ha portato la generale soddisfazione per quanto concretizzato in queste due giornate, intese come un gradino di partenza e non certo di arrivo.
Un ringraziamento alla Associazione Maredentro e alla Marina dei Cesari per l’ospitalità e a tutto il Team presente, ci si vede presto in acqua!
H. fulva 'Kwanso Variegata'
Daylily is the general nonscientific name of a species, hybrid or cultivar of the genus Hemerocallis. Daylily cultivar flowers are highly diverse in colour and form, as a result of hybridization efforts of gardening enthusiasts and professional horticulturalists. Thousands of registered cultivars are appreciated and studied by local and international Hemerocallis societies. Hemerocallis is now placed in family Xanthorrhoeaceae, subfamily Hemerocallidoideae, and formerly was part of Liliaceae (which includes Lilium, True Lilies).
Daylilies are perennial plants. The name Hemerocallis comes from the Greek words ἡμέρα (hēmera) "day" and καλός (kalos) "beautiful". This name alludes to the attractive flowers of this genus which typically last no more than 24 hours. The flowers of most species open at sunrise and wither at sunset, possibly replaced by another one on the same scape (flower stalk) the next day. Some species are night-blooming. Daylilies are not commonly used as cut flowers for formal flower arranging, yet they make good cut flowers otherwise as new flowers continue to open on cut stems over several days.
Hemerocallis is native to Eurasia, including China, Korea, and Japan, and this genus is popular worldwide because of the showy flowers and hardiness of many kinds. There are over 60,000 registered cultivars. Hundreds of cultivars have fragrant flowers, and more scented cultivars are appearing more frequently in northern hybridization programs. Some cultivars rebloom later in the season, particularly if their capsules, in which seeds are developing, are removed.
Most kinds of Daylilies occur as clumps, each of which has leaves, a crown, flowers, and roots. The long, linear lanceolate leaves are grouped into opposite fans with arching leaves. The crown is the small white portion between the leaves and the roots. Along the scape of some kinds of daylilies, small leafy "proliferations" form at nodes or in bracts. A proliferation forms roots when planted and is often an exact clone of its parent plant. Many kinds of daylilies have thickened roots in which they store food and water.
A normal, single daylily flower has three petals and three sepals, collectively called tepals, each with a midrib in the same or in a contrasting color. The centermost part of the flower, called the throat, usually has a different color than more distal areas of its tepals. Each flower usually has six stamens, each with a two-lobed anther. After successful pollination, a flower forms a capsule (often erroneously called a pod).
The Fulvous Daylily, although a beautiful plant, is an unwanted alien, invasive weed in some parts of the United States, such as in Wisconsin (Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources). People sometimes plant the Fulvous Daylily and other rhizomatous daylilies, which have underground runners. These kinds can overrun one's garden, and can take an appreciable amount of time and effort to confine or remove.
Depending on the species and cultivar, daylilies grow in USDA plant hardiness zones 1 through 11, making daylilies some of the more adaptable landscape plants. Hybridizers have developed the vast majority of cultivars within the last 100 years. The large-flowered, bright yellow Hemerocallis 'Hyperion', introduced in the 1920s, heralded a return to gardens of the once-dismissed daylily, and is still widely available in the nursery trade. Daylily breeding has been a specialty in the United States, where daylily heat- and drought-resistance made them garden standbys since the 1950s. New cultivars have sold for thousands of dollars, but sturdy and prolific introductions sell at reasonable prices of $20 or less.
The Tawny Daylily (Hemerocallis fulva), and the sweet-scented Lemon-lily (H. lilioasphodelus; H. flava, old name)were early imports from England to 17th-century American gardens and soon escaped from gardens. The introduced Tawny Daylily is now common in many natural areas, and some people think that it is a native wildflower. Its nonscientific names include Railroad Daylily and Roadside Daylily and Outhouse Lily, Tiger Lily, and Wash-house Lily (although it is not a true lily). Some people have planted this species near outhouses and wash houses, hence two of its nonscientific names.
Hemerocallis is one of the very highly hybridized plant genera. Hybridizers register hundreds of new cultivars yearly. Hybridizers have extended the genus' color range from the yellow, orange, and pale pink of the species, to vibrant reds, purples, lavenders, greenish tones, near-black, near-white, and more. However, hybridizers have not yet been able to produce a daylily with primarily blue flowers in forms of blue such as azure blue, cobalt blue, and sky blue. Flowers of some cultivars have small areas of cobalt blue.
Other flower traits that hybridizers developed include height, scent, ruffled edges, contrasting "eyes" in the center of a bloom, and an illusion of glitter which is called "diamond dust." Sought-after improvements include foliage color and variegation and plant disease resistance and the ability to form large, neat clumps. Hybridizers also seek to make less-hardy plants hardier in Canada and the Northern United States by crossing evergreen and semi-evergreen plants with those that become dormant and by using other methods. Many kinds of daylilies form clumps of crowded shoots. People dig up such kinds every 3 or so years, separate shoots, and replant only some of the shoots to reduce crowding. This process increases the flowering of many cultivars.
In the last several decades, many hybridizers have focused on breeding tetraploid plants, which tend to have sturdier scapes and tepals than diploids and some flower-color traits that are not found in diploids. Until this trend took root, nearly all daylilies were diploid. "Tets," as they are called by aficionados, have 44 chromosomes, while triploids have 33 chromosomes and diploids have 22 chromosomes per individual plant. Hemerocallis fulva 'Europa', H. fulva 'Kwanso', H. fulva 'Kwanso Variegata', H. fulva 'Kwanso Kaempfer', H. fulva var. maculata, H. fulva var. angustifolia, and H. fulva 'Flore Pleno' are all triplods that almost never produce seeds and reproduce almost solely by underground runners (stolons) and dividing groups by gardeners. A polymerous daylily flower is one with more than three sepals and more than three petals. Although some people synonymize “polymerous” with “double,” some polymerous flowers have over five times the normal number of petals.

I used to follow this female photographer (on Flickr?) that had such cool abstracts of ice. She lived up on one of the Great Lakes so she got plenty of practice. But that was her thing. Beautiful images of ice bubbles, light through ice, rocks covered in ice. So here I am, searching all over a rock wall on the north side of Monte Sano for interesting bits covered in ice. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Before our friend, June Patience Jones died on the 4th May, we promised her to go down to the caravan to go and collect some of her belongings back to her as she was incapable to travel. Unfortunately, this wasn't to be the case. We decided that raising funds and giving them to a cancer charity would be the next best option. Therefore, we carried on as normal and in september, we hope to raise funds for a cancer charity in memory of her and her fave second home.
This is of zeon7 having a coffee whilst getting ideas on what to shoot next. I done this shot by placing the camera on the table I was sitting at and just hoping it would take a good picture. Kinda like a voyeuristic look at him.

Puebla., Puebla a 09 de Abril del 2012
Tras vencer a Toluca, Puebla tuvo menos de 24 horas de descanso e iniciar de nueva cuenta con los preparativos para su siguiente compromiso. Trabajo regenerativo para los que vieron minutos ante los choriceros y futbol en espacios reducidos para el resto del plantel fue la primera práctica de la Franja de cara al duelo del viernes ante Estudiantes Tecos.
Con esto triunfo, los poblanos ligaron victorias, sacando 7 puntos de los últimos 9, ahora ante los zapopanos querrán otro éxito más que los mantengan con aspiraciones de liguilla y además de seguir sumando en el cociente del año entrante.
“Es difícil decirlo, quizás hemos tenido más confianza, es de esas cosas del futbol que no llegas a entender del todo pero afortunadamente tenemos una buena racha. La verdad estamos muy contentos, el equipo ya se lo merecía, no habíamos ganado en casa, llega en buen momento y ojala que nos alcance para pelear por algo más…” manifestó Gonzalo Pineda.
Ante Toluca, “El Gonzó” volvió a la cancha luego de 3 semanas de inactivad tras el problema muscular que lo aquejó. Pineda Reyes ingresó al minuto 41 por la lesión de Luis García, situación que le dio tristeza por entrar como un cambio obligatorio aunque con mucha alegría por jugar de nueva cuenta y poder aportar algo grupo.
“Somos muchos los que trabajamos, todos los que entrenamos y algunos que no han tenido participación, aquí todos son importantes y en esa medida entendemos que lo que en verdad importa es el equipo, cualquiera puede meter el gol o el héroe y la victoria es para el equipo…” relató el mediocampista.
La antepenúltima prueba del Puebla en el Clausura 2012 es Tecos, equipo que tiene un pie y medio en la Liga de Ascenso, sin embargo un triunfo el día viernes no apagará su última vela por lo que los de Daniel Bartolotta se relajarán para este duelo.
“Estudiantes es un equipo que está urgido de ganar, ellos han externado que pueden sacar los 3 puntos pero nosotros también estamos convencidos y motivados de que venimos con una seguidilla de juegos sin perder y creo que con esa mentalidad podemos sacar el triunfo. Hay que ir paso a paso, partido tras partido y veremos esta donde nos alcanza…” comentó Brayan Martínez
El regiomontano tuvo participación ante la escuadra mexiquense dando la pase para el gol de Aarón Padilla y ahora menciona que la clave para vencer al cuadro universitario esta en mantener esa garra mostrada durante los últimos 3 encuentros.
“Uno siempre trata de aportar su granito de arena, se me dio el pase, “Ganso” lo aprovecho muy bien y contentos porque se sacó el resultado. Tenemos que seguir manteniendo el coraje, la garra que mostramos ayer durante los segundos tiempos y de esta forma poder sacar más puntos, eso ha sido la base y lo que ha caracterizado al equipo que no deja de pelear y seguir trabajando con alegría…” dialogó el atacante.
Será hasta mañana cuando se conozca el diagnóstico de la lesión de Luis García, quien se podría perder el resto del torneo.

With each passing week Key West Contemporary becomes a little more pleasing to my eye. Every year I go to the Orchid Show at the NYBG as often as possible. Each year I start out with fond memories of the previous year's showing and every year by the final day I claim that this year's show is the best ever.
