L. S. Lowry. Laurence Stephen Lowry (1 November 1887 – 23 February 1976) was an English artist born in Stretford, Lancashire. Many of his drawings and paintings depict Pendlebury, where he lived and worked for over 40 years, and Salford and its surrounding areas. Lowry is famous for painting scenes of life in the industrial districts of North West England in the mid-20th century. He developed a distinctive style of painting and is best known for his urban landscapes peopled with human figures often referred to as "matchstick men". He also painted mysterious unpopulated landscapes, brooding portraits and the unpublished "marionette" works, which were only found after his death.

Because of his use of stylised figures and the lack of weather effects in many of his landscapes he is sometimes characterised as a naïve[1] "Sunday painter", although this is not the position of the galleries that have organised retrospectives of his works.[2][3][4][5] Early life[edit] Education[edit] Death of his parents[edit] Visions - "The Gardener's Son" - 1976.

Part of the AFI 100 Years… series, AFI's 100 Years…100 Laughs is a list of the top 100 funniest movies in American cinema. A wide variety of comedies were nominated for the distinction that included slapstick comedy, action comedy, screwball comedy, romantic comedy, satire, black comedy, musical comedy, comedy of manners and comedy of errors.

The list was unveiled by the American Film Institute on June 13, 2000. The list[edit] Criteria[edit] Feature-Length Fiction Film: The film must be in narrative format typically over 60 minutes long.American Film: The film must be in the English language with significant creative and/or financial production elements from the United States.Funny: Regardless of genre, the total comedic impact of a film’s elements that creates an experience greater than the sum of the smiles.Legacy: Laughs that echo across time, enriching America’s film heritage and inspiring artists and audiences today. OTRS[edit] External links[edit] The Times Top 200 Artists of the 20th Century to Now. From The Times Online The Times Top 200 Artists of the 20th Century to Now At first glance, the results of this poll may seem rather predictable — but the longer you look, the more telling the quirks and anomalies become. This is precisely its point. It’s not there to agree with.

It is there to argue against. Several artists would seem to be enormously overrated. What is Martin Kippenburger doing in the Top 20, rated above Rothko and Schiele and Klee? Influence, perhaps, is not adequately reflected in this list. How do the British do? David Bomberg, the painter’s painter, is a completely underrated straggler. Painting is more appealing than sculpture, apparently. The results show a strong inclination towards the early modern, towards styles and experiments that have had a century or so to settle down through once-outraged sensibilities, forming the deep sediment of tastes.

Arentino na prvním Tizianově portrétu Pietro Aretino (20. dubna 1492 – 21. října 1556) byl italský spisovatel, dramatik, básník a satirik, mající velký vliv na současné umění a politiku a také zakladatel moderní pornografické literatury.

Život[editovat | editovat zdroj] Pocházel z města Arezzo, kde také získal vzdělání, pak byl z města vypuzen. Tvůrčí období strávil ve městě Perugia, kde byl podporován Agostinem Chigim, bohatým bankéřem a mecenášem. Později odešel do Říma. Když papeži Lvovi X. v roce 1514 zemřel jeho slon Hanno, Aretino napsal satirický pamflet, nazvaný “Poslední vůle slona Hanna”. Aretino žil v kroužku literátů u svého patrona, zlepšoval své satirické schopnosti, věnoval se pomlouvání politiků a papežské kurie, povýšil římskou tradici hanopisů pasquinade na satirický žánr. Po jeho smrti v roce 1521 ho podporoval kardinál Giulio de Medici, pozdější papež Klement VII., protože Aretino kritizoval jeho protivníky.

Film na motivy románu Jáchyma Topola s hudbou Psích vojáků. Hlavní hrdina Potok pracuje v malém divadle jako výtvarník. Je mu kolem třicítky a jeho život se neubírá v podstatě žádným směrem. Svoje okolí i sám sebe pozoruje s opovržením. Jeho bezcílný život se změní teprve v momentě, kdy potká Černou. Zamilovaná dvojice uniká z města. Nevyhnutelně však znovu naráží na lidskou vypočítavost, mělkost a nevkus. Potok se propadá do dřívější skepse, která vede až k totálnímu rozpadu jejich vztahu. Vít Pancíř, experimentální filmař, animátor a tvůrce videoklipů kapely Psí vojáci, začal před pěti lety pracovat na scénáři k filmu Sestra podle románové předlohy Jáchyma Topola.

Divadelní společnost Masopust zvolila za svůj nejnovější projekt u nás dosud neinscenovanou hru španělského dramatika Pedra Calderóna de la Barcy El Princípe Constante / Vytrvalý princ. Po předpremiérové verzi inscenace v Meet Factory byla uvedena na jevišti Divadla v Celetné, a to v režii Štěpána Pácla.

Calderón ve svém textu z poloviny 17. století dramaticky zpracoval legendu o svatém portugalském princi Fernandovi, který se vzdává vlastní svobody a dobrovolně umírá v arabském zajetí, aby nemuselo být obětováno křesťanské město Ceuta, a především, aby nadále nepokračovalo mocenské vydírání a válčení. Hra vypovídá o střetu dvou světů, křesťanském a muslimském, na kterém autor nadčasově dokumentuje problematiku politických machinací fungujících především na základě demonstrace síly, věčnou snahu o manipulaci a nesnesitelnou povrchnost pozemského života, tolik zdůrazňovanou právě v barokním (křesťanském) pojímání světa. Termín konání: od 15.9. Lo-fi music.

Lo-fi (from the term "low fidelity") is lower quality of sound recordings than the usual standard for modern music. The qualities of lo-fi are usually achieved by either degrading the quality of the recorded audio, or using certain equipment. Recent uses of the phrase have led to it becoming a genre, although it still remains as an aesthetic in music recording practice. Many lo-fi artists use inexpensive cassette tape recorders. The term was adopted by WFMU DJ William Berger who dedicated a half hour segment of his program to home recorded music throughout the late '80s under the name lo-fi.

Pre-1980s[edit] Lo-fi's roots can be dated as far back as a set of live cylinder recordings created in 1900–04 by Lionel Mapleson from a catwalk 40 ft (12 m) above the stage of the Metropolitan Opera. 1980s onwards[edit] Pavement singer/guitarist and lo-fi music innovator Steve Malkmus Recife Lo-fi compilation with brazilian artists.

Emeli Sandé. Early life[edit] Adele Emily Sandé was born in Sunderland,[8][9][10][11][12][13] to a Zambian father, Joel Sandé, and English mother, Diane Sandé-Wood, on 10 March 1987. Her father, having moved from Zambia, met her mother while they were both at university in Sunderland. The family moved to Alford, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, when she was four.[14] Sandé wrote her first song at the age of 11, for her primary-school talent show.[15] She remembers "That was the first time I thought I might be a songwriter. Sandé attended school at Alford Academy, where her father was a teacher.

Jedinečné zážitky, aktivity a věci, které se dají dělat v Praze. This Boy's Life (1993) - Soundtracks. F for Fake. F for Fake (French: Vérités et mensonges, "Truths and lies") is the last major film completed by Orson Welles, who directed, co-wrote, and starred in the film. Initially released in 1974, it focuses on Elmyr de Hory's recounting of his career as a professional art forger; de Hory's story serves as the backdrop for a fast-paced, meandering investigation of the natures of authorship and authenticity, as well as the basis of the value of art.

Loosely a documentary, the film operates in several different genres and has been described as a kind of film essay. Far from serving as a traditional documentary on Elmyr de Hory, the film also incorporates Welles's companion Oja Kodar, notorious "hoax-biographer" Clifford Irving, and Orson Welles as himself. In addition to the 85-minute film, in 1976 Welles also shot and edited a self-contained 9-minute short film as a "trailer", almost entirely composed of original material not found in the main film itself.

EXPERIENCE THE WEST through Tim Cox’s eyes. Tim paints what he knows; vibrant cutting horses intent on holding that cow, cowponies covered in sweat after working a hard day, ranch horses sharing a well earned drink at a glistening water trough.

His cattle have authentic expressions; calves perhaps a little bewildered at a branding, bemused heifers waiting to be fed, a longhorn steer intent on leaving the country, or a herd just shuffling along as they are being driven to better pastures are frequent subjects. Ranchers, cutters, team ropers, or cowhands, all of them touch his heart. Add a striking landscape with dramatic skies; clear blue, wispy pink clouds or spectacular thunderheads and you have a Tim Cox painting. Tim is especially proud of his 2003 Prix de West Award and his two “Express Ranches Great American Cowboy Awards” from the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum.

Endless nights of painting until dawn are finally paying off for Tim Cox. 50 Beautiful HDR Images from 50 World Cities.
