Guadi's Obsession Zento's photos around Barcelona, Spain (spain and canary islands)

Entry from: Barcelona, Spain
Entry Title: Guadi's Obsession
Entry:
We left our hostel early in the morning, before anyone else was up, to decide what we wanted to do as we walked and examined at our map. We were sure visiting the Sagrada Familia would take an entire day so we decided today was as good as any day to do so. On the way we could visit the Batlló house and The Pedrera, both of Gaudi's famous architectural works in the center of Barcelona. We crossed Plaza Catalunya and continued to walk on Paseo de Gracia, an elegant avenue with impressive buildings, old and new, anywhere you looked at. It was a busy street where business men and students hurried along. Few tourists walked this way so our sightseeing-mode pace was apparently too slow for some. In a city that is well-known for its rich architecture, one can't deny the camera its job when it comes to the details and the structures of some intricate buildings. Designer houses such as Valentino, Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Armani lined the eastern sidewalk where I posed for a few pictures. After a few blocks, we came across the first signs of the Batlló House: the colorful curvilinear roof imitating the belly of a dragon was unmistakable. A few more steps and through the trees we could see the balconies shaped as theater masks, and the façade decorated with different colored tiles. What struck me as curious was that Gaudi's intention, along with any other Art Nouveau architect, to seek inspiration in organic material and in nature itself was apparent: the building for some reason looked alive and breathing. Unfortunately, the bottom section of the building was closed for viewing so we decided we would come back another day to see the entire thing. We didn't want to miss anything. And so we continued to walk up Paseo de Gracia toward La Sagrada Familia. We took a few wrong turns and after about 20 more blocks and 2 pairs of tired feet, we came across the first steeples. We crossed the park that lead to the side entrance called the Façade of the Passion. The tour guide gave us a quick but important introduction that left me amazed: the Temple of the Sacred Family was conceived as an atonement concept: it would be built only with the donations and alms of the faithful....this of course would grant you forgiveness to all your sins. This is why the Temple is not yet finished: it depends solely on contributions. What a romantic concept to begin this architectural legacy with. And apparently its construction still has 25 more years to go! Gaudi was appointed Project Director when he was a young upcoming architect, just one year after the church project began. He continued to work on the project for forty years until his death, when he left plans, drawing, studies, and notes on what the building should be. A sort of post-mortem oversee. The modern day architects have respected Gaudi's wishes but have brought his 19th-century designs into the 20th and 21st century. That's how the famous Passion Façade came to be. The style of the sculptures have nothing to do with Gaudi's style; they are however exactly what he wanted. Interesting bits are seen in that façade such as the cryptogram next to Judas's figure kissing Christ: every sequence of four numbers in the cryptogram from any direction add up 33, Christ's age when he was crucified. A serpent appears behind Judas's figure. The tour guide went on and on with interesting details about the temple and its design: for example the interior of the church was meant to symbolize a forest. The tall trunks are the huge columns we see in the main nave, and the branches with its leaves are spread out all across the vaults. Gaudi wanted to imitate the sunrays going through the leaves and branches of the canopy in any forest, so for that he ...

Venice Carnival 2017 - tips for travelling with kids to Italy Venice carnival
If you're on budget or traveling by car, the best place to stay is a town close to Venice called Mestre as there are hotels with parking and it's only 15min away by tram. We've paid 65eur/night for a basic 4 star hotel in Mestre. A bus/tram ride costs 1,5 eur (gratis for kids).
Restaurants in Venice are very expensive with quite bad food.
Many people are wearing masks, so would be nice to have them ready if you decide to take part in the fun.
As mentioned in he video, it's VERY crowdy during the main events, to the point that the crowd stands still at some points as it's impossible to move. That's a down point of Venice Carnival, must add.
You call that ART??!!
Well ... yeah!
This work is by Fabrice Hyber and is at MACVAL, Musée d'art contemporain du Val-de-Marne in Vitry-sur-Seine, outside Paris, France. Their website is macval.fr, they are at Place de la libération, there's a tramway stop right nearby, and since we visited on a first Sunday of the month (a journée du patrimoine -- heritage day in France), admission was free. (It's normally five euros to visit this particular museum -- way cheaper, generally, than museums in Paris.) There's a big garden, a restaurant, a médiathèque and documentation center, a theatre/cinema, and a permanent collection and a temporary show at all times. I'm pretty sure this place is closed on Mondays.
I went to art school. In fact, I went to several. I'm also an artist. My work is in the permanent collections of quite a few museums, last I checked. I cannot always explain my art, but that's not my job. I was doing performance art before it was called that, and yes, some of it was pretty silly. If you care to read about a little of some of my art, the book MODERN WOMEN, published by The Museum of Modern Art in New York has about six pages and three color plates on me, under my maiden name (Baumgardner). I've used a variety of names over the years for my creative output -- something for my biographers to worry about eventually, if there are any and if they care to. FRANCE CULTURE is interviewing me next week for French radio -- why and about what, I have no idea.
This is a big room full of plastic bowls, with a video playing, explaining the objective is to put all of the smaller bowls into larger bowls. Why? I don't know. The artist, Fabrice Hyber, seems to be dressed as a woman in the video, and is frantically manipulating a bunch of bowls ... teetering about on a pair of ladies' high heeled shoes ...
Yes, it's art. He is the featured artist in the temporary show, and quite a few of his works are a lot of fun and are interactive. I have a clip up of an enormous playroom he set up here, over on Dailymotion, under LisaFalour, and at least one other clip of art at this museum on my other YouTube channel, CUTECATFAITH. When in Paris, try not to just stay in the central 20 arrondissements. Public transportation is very good throughout the Greater Paris (Ile-de-France) region, and it will expand your Paris experience.

Places to see in ( Paris - France ) Palais Garnier - Opera National de Paris
Places to see in ( Paris - France ) Palais Garnier - Opera National de Paris
The Palais Garnier is a 1,979-seat opera house, which was built from 1861 to 1875 for the Paris Opera. It was called the Salle des Capucines, because of its location on the Boulevard des Capucines in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, but soon became known as the Palais Garnier, in recognition of its opulence and its architect, Charles Garnier. The theatre is also often referred to as the Opéra Garnier. and historically was known as the Opéra de Paris or simply the Opéra, as it was the primary home of the Paris Opera and its associated Paris Opera Ballet until 1989, when the Opéra Bastille opened at the Place de la Bastille. The Paris Opera now mainly uses the Palais Garnier for ballet.
The Palais Garnier has been called probably the most famous opera house in the world, a symbol of Paris like Notre Dame Cathedral, the Louvre, or the Sacré Coeur Basilica. This is at least partly due to its use as the setting for Gaston Leroux's 1910 novel The Phantom of the Opera and, especially, the novel's subsequent adaptations in films and Andrew Lloyd Webber's popular 1986 musical.
Another contributing factor is that among the buildings constructed in Paris during the Second Empire, besides being the most expensive, it has been described as the only one that is unquestionably a masterpiece of the first rank. This opinion is far from unanimous however: the 20th-century French architect Le Corbusier once described it as a lying art and contended that the Garnier movement is a décor of the grave. The Palais Garnier also houses the Bibliothèque-Musée de l'Opéra de Paris (Paris Opera Library-Museum), although the Library-Museum is no longer managed by the Opera and is part of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France. The museum is included in unaccompanied tours of the Palais Garnier.
The Palais Garnier is a building of exceptional opulence. The style is monumental and considered Second-Empire Beaux-Arts style with axial symmetry in plan and eclectic exterior ornamentation with an abundance of Neo-Baroque decorative elements. These include very elaborate multicolored marble friezes, columns, and lavish statuary, many of which portray deities of Greek mythology. The principal facade is on the south side of the building, overlooking the Place de l'Opéra and terminates the perspective along the Avenue de l'Opéra. Fourteen painters, mosaicists and seventy-three sculptors participated in the creation of its ornamentation.
The sculptural group Apollo, Poetry, and Music, located at the apex of the south gable of the stage flytower, is the work of Aimé Millet, and the two smaller bronze Pegasus figures at either end of the south gable are by Eugène-Louis Lequesne. Also known as the Rotonde de l'Empereur, this group of rooms is located on the left (west) side of the building and was designed to allow secure and direct access by the Emperor via a double ramp to the building.
The building features a large ceremonial staircase of white marble with a balustrade of red and green marble, which divides into two divergent flights of stairs that lead to the Grand Foyer. Its design was inspired by Victor Louis's grand staircase for the Théâtre de Bordeaux. The pedestals of the staircase are decorated with female torchères, created by Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse.
In 1821 the Opéra de Paris had moved into the temporary building known as the Salle Le Peletier on the rue Le Peletier. Since then a new permanent building had been desired. Charles Rohault de Fleury, who was appointed the opera's official architect in 1846, undertook various studies in suitable sites and designs.

Why You Should Visit Cartagena, Colombia!
After a wasted day of rain, it was nice to finally get on the move to somewhere new, Cartagena! We missed our flight (customary at this point), but our first impression of Cartagena was that it is very beautiful, very European, and very old. Our Uber driver was very knowledgeable about the city and gave us a quick history lesson that you can hear in the video.
It's a beautiful Spanish settlement, so look for my next video in which we explore the walled city and you can see the bright colors up closer!
