50 Watts. Dog Art Today. Did you hear this crazy true-crime story about the Italian auto worker/art lover who paid 45,000 Lire (approximately $100 adjusted for today) for two paintings at the Italian Railways lost and found auction in 1975?

Dog Art Today

The paintings turned out to be Fruits on a Table with Small Dog by Paul Gauguin, and Woman with Two Arm Chairs by Pierre Bonnard. They were stolen from a London art collector in 1970 by two men posing as burglar alarm technicians. Authorities think the thieves abandoned the paintings on the train due to fear of customs. The paintings hung on the auto worker's kitchen wall for close to 40 years. Their identity was only discovered when the man died and his son decided to sell them. Now, it's been discovered that the original owner died and left no heirs. The paintings are worth between $14 million and $40 millions. Meta Titulo * H Magazine España.

These photographs are examples of old world photography with a modern twist. Simple yet chic style reminds us of images that were taken back in the 70′s and 80′s. 'it's such an ancient pitch, but one I wouldn't switch, 'cause there's no nicer witch than you' Paolo Roversi, more than any other fashion photographer, leads me to ask how literally a complete body of work can be considered a reliable self-portrait of the artist that produced it.

'it's such an ancient pitch, but one I wouldn't switch, 'cause there's no nicer witch than you'

The consistency of his style and the recognisability of his photographs helps me arrive at the question but never the answer, and perhaps that's part of the ongoing appeal for me. That and the fact that no other fashion photographer has produced images of such unapologetic romanticism and gone on to be a power house in the profession. Successful fashion photography so often has an overbearing and unavoidable link to raw eroticism and whether the women in the images are empowered with sadistic, domineering traits or seduce through submission and weakness, the sexuality is raw, surfaced, skinned and can alienate its viewers as it simultaneously tempts and intrigues them.

Seeing Roversi's work in a fashion magazine is like seeing a wanted ad for true love in amongst requests for casual sex. Māksla + Komunikācijas 2011 : TEHNO EKOLOĢIJAS. Bryan Lewis Saunders - DRUGS. "Near Death Experience" 25I-NBOMe Abilify / Xanax / Ativan (dosage unknown in hospital)
