111 Years Ago Today: War Declared By All

111 Years Ago Today: War Declared By All

Pablo Picasso (1939)

love how we said "defund the police" and they said it was impossible then they defunded literally everything *BUT* the police, smh

weird how the guy born into obscene wealth, bailed out repeatedly, allowed to fail upwards forever until he fell ass-backwards into the presidency, and then was declared by the Supreme Court to be a Very Special Boy Who Can Crime Forever never stops whining about how everything is rigged against him

What Kind of Men Are These? Spinelessness as a career choice

‘Trump threw one of his ALL CAPS tantrums, demanding once again that the world agree with him … and like good apparatchiks, the entire Republican establishment instantly went on Fox News and anywhere else they could to announce proudly to the world that, Yes! The sky IS green! The grass IS blue!’

Wallace Polsom, “The 1938 ‘Exposition Internationale du Surréalisme’ in Paris: A Live Radio Event” (12 Oct 2016), paper collage, 22.7 x 30.3 cm | wallacepolsom.com/post/1517204... #papercollage #collage #art #contemporaryart #surrealart #arthistory

Ilse Bing left her native Germany and moved to Paris – the center of the art world – in 1929. In Paris, she flourished as a commercial photographer, freelancing for a variety of magazines, while also finding time to show her avant-garde photos in gallery shows. Bing’s “Self-Portrait in Mirrors” (also sometimes titled “Self-Portrait with Leica”) is a great example of her innovative and intuitive use of photography as an art form. This shot is actually a double portrait, showing both a front view and a side view with missing elements from one view (for example, her nose) being filled in by the other view: two points of view shown simultaneously as separate images within one frame. Genius! When the Nazis overran Paris in 1940, Bing was sent to an internment camp in the south of France. She was able to secure a visa and emigrated to New York City in 1941. Her photographic output slowed in the US and she put her camera down for good in 1959 to concentrate on writing poetry. Her impact on modern photography remains impressive, as she was among the first to use solarization, the electric flash and night compositions.

ILSE BING (1899 - 1998), “Self-Portrait in Mirrors”, 1931.
She was one of the earliest photographers to use the new Leica 35 mm camera, which had a conveniently small size and a very fast shutter speed. She soon became known as “the Queen of the Leica”.

Newman's photographic portraits are compelling and arresting, and are always carefully composed (and sometimes aggressively cropped). This narrative approach to portraiture has become almost commonplace today but was very radical back in the 1930s and 1940s when formality ruled the day. His photo portraits include famous artists, politicians, athletes and actors. Newman’s “Self-Portrait” from 1939 was shot in Baltimore, Maryland and is an early example of his meticulous approach to composing his images. He has framed himself – with his camera, of course – reflected in a mirror while looking off into the future. He described his work as “building” a portrait as opposed to “taking” a portrait.

August's theme: photographic selfies
ARNOLD NEWMAN (1918 - 2006), “Self-Portrait”, 1939.
Newman perfected what became known as “the environmental portrait”: placing his subjects in a setting that reflected his or her personality.
