The Keitelman Gallery went for Mounir Fatmi (from its current exhibition), Stella, Lee Ufan, Broodthaers, Klein, Hantaï, as well as Calder and Miró. But contemporary art is starting to impose itself progressively and prudently in the stands of some of the exhibiting galleries specialising in modern art, as well as galleries such as Maruani Mercier, who is at the fair for the first time, and Keitelman, who is a regular, and even-two galleries from Brussels! The former does present some modern pieces: a Delvaux (57), a Brauner (56) an Arp sculpture from 1953 and some works by Man Ray, but mainly contemporary ensembles by Clemente, Sherrie Levine, Gavin Turk, Bleckner, Carl André, as well as two Mangolds (77 and 79), a Peter Halley (2016), a Christopher Wool. The Maastricht fair has been wide open to modern art and to post-war art for quite a while. Still a tad hesitatingly, contemporary art is managing to insinuate itself into the ranks of the moderns and even starting to impose itself in a few of the participating galleries at TEFAF.

But even while she is dancing her merengues in front of his new friends and painting the white farmhouse purple, Tia Lola is also weaving a magical spell of love and support that Miguel and his wounded family sorely need. With his black hair and brown skin, it's hard enough already without the flamboyant antics of his friendly, nutty aunt, visiting from the Dominican Republic.

Summary : (Ages 9 to 12) Review With her brilliantly hued flower-print dresses, her maracas and tambor, and the migrating beauty mark over her lipsticked mouth, Tia Lola stands out in Vermont like a tropical bird in a snowstorm. Not sure how this ranks up against A Farewell to Arms but I recommend it highly nevertheless.

In 1966 he received a 5-year research grant from his former school to study the form and use of public space. In 1960, Jan Gehl earned his BA and MA in Architecture from the School of Architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and began practicing as an architect. His ideas and approaches to design for public spaces incorporate the cutting edge of technology without losing sight of what best supports and enhances people's experience of everyday life in the public realm. While Jan Gehl's research on public spaces and public life began in Copenhagen, it was quickly applied to many other cities throughout Europe, North America, Asia, and Australia. Only after establishing a vision of what kind of public life is desired in a given space, can attention be given to the surrounding buildings and the ways the spaces can productively interact. For Gehl, design always begins with an analysis of the spaces between buildings. His company, Gehl Architects - Urban Quality Consultants, creatively reimagines the multiple ways in which communities use the public realm. He has extensively researched the form and use of public spaces and put his findings to practice in multiple locations througout the world. Jan Gehl is a practicing Urban Design Consultant and Professor of Urban Design at the School of Architecture in Copenhagen, Denmark. |
