kirchner museum, davos, 1992, architect: guyer gigon
'The Kirchner Museum Davos was the first large commission to be realised by Annette Gigon and Mike Guyer. It is now seen as a pioneering example of a new understanding of museum architecture, combining functionality and aesthetics, intrinsic architectural value and service to art in a remarkable way.
Taking their point of departure from local conditions (climate, light, flat-roofed Davos architecture), but above all from considerations about an ideal encounter of viewer and artwork, the architects designed four cubes (the exhibition halls) linked by a branched foyer with wide facade windows as a space for reflection and repose. The foyer also offers a view of the Alpine landscape which so inspired Kirchner’s Swiss work.
There is a skylight above each hall which evenly distributes the multiply filtered daylight into the spaces through its lateral glass facades. The basement contains the museum’s office and service spaces.
Gigon / Guyer used glass, concrete, steel and wood to create a crystalline building reduced to essentials; but in their extremely sensitive combination of these materials they also achieved subtle and complex architectural formulations which transform the deliberate simplicity of the museum’s exterior and interior into a built equivalent of the expressive power of Ernst Ludwig Kirchner’s art.'

I certainly would like to have known what was behind that door, but the door itself was behind this counter area so I probably couldn't sneak back in there without being scolded.
Originally a photojournalist, Guy Tillim has spent a large part of his career documenting social conflict in Africa for media agencies including Reuters and Agence France-Presse.
Of his project Avenue Patrice Lumumba Tillim explains, “Modernist architecture was the hook on which I hung the project, but it is not about that architecture – it’s not a survey. Rather, these were the places that I had got to know while working as a photojournalist; I had always been struck by the bizarre stage that they provided.”
On exhibit at the Lannan Foundation Gallery July 23 - Sept 4, 2011.

Yesterday it was a spiky Mohawk. Today it is gelled flat. Interesting to see what the new neighbor does with it in the days and weeks to come.
Love this guy! Talented, passionate, colorful artist. I had to have a go at Pablo. I concentrated more on moving the flesh colors around and achieving a variety of tones rather than getting it to look just like him.
Sunday afternoon, Jingu Bashi next to Harajuku Station, and dancing "U2 guy" was going for it. All day long! Of course, he stopped briefly when his mobile phone rang. Really, a sight that needed to be seen (and heard) to be believed. Mari and I got a good giggle, for sure! November 3, 2007.
A guy who sells baloons for kids in south Nicosia. I believe the gas which fills baloons are flammable and he is smoking :)
The guy ropes on our canopy were a little too long. Luckily I was a boy scout and able to tie a sheepshank!

DJ Bad Guy is out of the Riot Life camp. The photo was done in the Bronx. One of his homies that past away still plays a mayor role in his life and we showed some respect during a photo shoot and gave the lost homie a little shine. Rest in peace …

Guy Gardner
By Michael Vance
In bad comic books, at least one axiom holds true: clothes make the [super]man.
In the arts, a device that triggers instant recognition is called a “signature”. James Bond, Bob Hope, and Alfred Hitchcock have signature theme songs. Sherlock Holmes has his cap, Popeye has spinach, and Superman his [super]clothes. In comic books, superhero costumes are very important signatures.
But when you can change the hero in the costume without changing the entire comic book, you’ve uncovered the close cousin of signature. It’s called stereotype. Signatures are good. Stereotypes are … less good.
Lots of comic book costumes have changed their hero’s inside in the last twenty years. At least one new guy in an old uniform has changed much more than his socks, however … Guy Gardner, the Green Lantern of Earth.
Like his fellow Lantern members on almost every inhabited planet, Guy owns a green ring that turns will power into real power. He recharges this ring at a source shaped like a … green lantern. He also possesses one attribute that makes Guy a standout among superheroes.
Guy has a personality: an obnoxious, egocentric, sarcastic personality.
Gardner, signature ring and suit are held hostage by slimy aliens in the latest edition of “Guy Gardner: Year One”. These aliens “took my ring and they’re making a duplicate me that’s gonna take over my planet”.
Original plot is not a signature for Guy.
What Gardner has changed is the flavor of this well-written and distinctively drawn SF comic. He’s almost believable as a human being. (The super powers get in the way of believability). He’s a character that you’d enjoy knowing despite his faults. (The super powers weaken that too). But Guy is very close to real.
Being real is one of the secrets of great storytelling because (surprise!!) clothes really don’t make the [super]man.
Oh, yeah. The weird alien Green Lanterns are fun to.
“Guy Gardner: Year One” #12/$1.25, 22 pages, from DC Comics/Chuck Dixon, writer; Joe Staton, art/available at newsstands and comics shops.
