ARP Art Residency Project 2014 Paolo Baraldi
Paolo Baraldi aka IL BARO has been in Cape Town participating in ARP Art Residency project promoted by the Centro Luigi Di Sarro in collaboration with SMAC Art Gallery and the Ruth Prowse School of Art.
NOT a LINE (a shadow line) is the project by Paolo Baraldi selected for the Artistic Residency in Cape Town, South Africa, in September- October 2014
The Italo-South African artist’s residency exchange programme, facilitated by the Centro Luigi Di Sarro, Rome Italy (centroluigidisarro.it) in collaboration with SMAC Art Gallery Cape Town (smacgallery.com) is marked by the arrival of Italian artist Paolo Baraldi in Cape Town. Il Baro will be living and working on a specific project in Cape Town for a period of 30 days, after which , he will present a solo exhibition at SMAC Art Gallery in Cape Town. The project Not A Line (a shadow line) is an urban art intervention, focused on and projected onto the grid map of the new MY CITY bus route in Cape Town which has revolutionized public mobility in Cape Town. The title “Not a Line”, in its literal sense is relevant as the map or network of bus routes is far from linear. Baraldi also sees the movement of people as a form of human exchange. My City buses concurrently run through the well-known tourist spots, and the various suburbs of the city. Each bus stop will represents a new discovery and encounter for the artist with places, people, situations and images which he aims to reproduce in shadow form, creating a body of work which is both a social survey and study in urban ethnography.
Paolo Baraldi describes the project in Cape Town as follows:
Drawing, photography and engraving, are steps in a process of memorization: the faces, the lives, the lights and shadows of people who might meet in my experience will be stored and played back in memory.
This project fits into the body of work which I have been developing around public spaces over the last few years, in Bilbao (Spain), Tampere (Finland), Rome and Bergamo (Italy). Recurring themes and devices in my work are issues surrounding equality, as well as highlighting the acquiescence and complicity of the individual to change appearance within the public context, reflecting a specific visual and cultural aspect, which is provoked and encouraged through artistic intervention. The extent and nature of these interventions relaxed or intensified, depending on the context.
The timing of the project coincides with various initiatives surrounding the City of Cape Town as World Design Capital for 2014, and the conceptual basis of the project aligns itself with this theme: artistic intervention and urban intervention are interrelated and connected as tools in contemporary new social planning.
In recent years, there has been increased criticism and concern about commercial art practices and the art market which stifles creativity and authenticity in artistic production and there is a move back towards a vision of art which is more closely linked to the creative act, where the artist is an interlocutor, engaging with its audience, operating from within an open/public space.
Building on this concept, Paolo Baraldi will also have a live workshop with the photography and graphics students from the Ruth Prowse School of Art based in Woodstock working with them at the near My City bus stop.
The Art Residency Project in South Africa is supported by the Consulate of Italy in Cape Town and the South African Embassy in Italy.
Italian dealer claims he has original Modigliani
(18 Jun 2016) A disputed painting potentially created by Amedeo Modigliani around 1918 in Paris will be part of an exhibition in Italy this month, while experts remain divided about it's origins and authenticity.
A portrait of a woman, it exhibits Modigliani's signature aesthetic of clear lines, elongated neck and blank almond-shaped eyes.
The painting was found by a flea market arts dealer, who prefers to remain anonymous, as it was leaning against a garbage bin at a subway stop in Rome a decade ago.
He took the canvas home - which was in bad shape with water stains on the back, mildew and a hole that appeared to be a mouse bite - and hired a lawyer who in 2006 sent photos of it to a group of Modigliani experts in Paris.
It was promptly dismissed as a fake.
But a public relations firm in Rome that doubles as the Amedeo Modigliani Institute is claiming a signed portrait of Odette could be the real deal.
It's putting the work on public view next week saying it hopes to start an academic debate on its authenticity.
Called Mogdigliani, Les Femmes, the exhibition will include the painting in question - which they are calling Odette - accompanied by replicas of Modigliani paintings.
The timing of Odette's appearance is certainly suspect: In November, Modigliani's Nu Couche (Reclining Nude) fetched $170 million at a Christie's auction in New York, the second highest price ever paid for an artwork at auction.
A host of museum exhibits around the globe are planned in the run-up to the 2020 centenary of his death.
It comes as the Amedeo Modigliani Institute tries to recover from a credibility scandal involving forgeries and its past president, Christian Parisot, who was arrested in 2012 on charges he knowingly authenticated fake works.
Parisot and Luciano Renzi founded the institute a decade ago to house the artist's documentary archive, which had been bequeathed to Parisot by Modigliani's only daughter. The institute wasn't implicated in the scandal, but its reputation suffered by association.
Experts cautioned that any purported Modigliani must be greeted with an overdose of skepticism, given the propensity for hoaxes, fakes and forgeries and the financial interests of all involved.
Most significantly, Odette has no provenance, or paper trail of past owners, rendering it virtually unsellable by any reputable gallery and problematic for any serious scholars to consider.

Vestiges of an ancient Greek art form, preserved by catastrophe
Fewer than 200 bronze sculptures from the Hellenistic era -- a period that began more than 2,000 years ago -- survive today. About a quarter of those are gathered in an exhibit at the National Gallery of Art called Power and Pathos, which offers a view into the spread of ancient Greek culture around the world, and the rise of a new art form. Jeffrey Brown reports.

Antiques Smuggling (1997): Turkey's ancient treasures are going missing, as a criminal underworld circumvents the state
Subscribe to journeyman for daily uploads:
With more ancient Greek settlements than Greece and more Roman ruins than Italy, Turkey is an archaeologist’s treasure trove.... and a plunderer’s paradise.
A multi million dollar black market in antiquities threatens to rob Turkey of its heritage. The Lycian, Roman and Byzantine Empires have all left their mark on Turkey’s red soil. Cobbled ruins and sandy excavations offer up statues, coins and ornate tombs from ages past. Such relics are seized upon by professional smugglers, shipped out the country and offloaded in Germany.

Onwards FLORENCE , ITALY to Explorer the Beautiful City and It’s FOOD - Day 1
I travelled to Florence Via Rome, Italy via taking a train called ITALIO. Though I landed in Rome late at night so I decided to stay over at a hotel and to take the train to Florence the next morning from Roma Termini Station. The Tickets. You may also book the tickets online from incase you have short of time, orals as I did, I preferred to get the same from the station.
The Journey from the Rome to Florence was indeed very relaxing and enchanting by the beautiful nature and wonderful landscapes. Crossing the Green Country side was indeed and experience.
As I landed in Florence I checked into my apartment and quickly ventured out to the neighbourhood to see their local life and market areas.
Moreover walking down the streets of Florence always has a different experience. I walked by the narrow and beautiful alleys. Above all the weather was amazing with heritage building and renaissance art across the city. So I stop by at a place called LEONARDO, its a local bakery and wanted to take a quick bite. Check out the details of the places right from here :
Post that I walked down to the Piazza Della Signoria which is Florence City Centre with beautiful churches around and loads of tourist. I walked by the Uffizi Gallery, which hosted beautiful paintings by Uffizi. most interestingly around the place there were so many local artiest sitting across to draw your caricature. I then went to Fontana Del Porcellino. Its a Metal Boar which had water running out of his mouth. Its a very popular place where tourist tends to visits. All you need to do is - if you have a penny you need to feed into the boars mouth and if it falls on the pit below then its proved to be lucky.

Tony Swain, Drowned Dust, Sudden Word at The Fruitmarket Gallery | 19 April--8 July 2012
An exhibition of new work by Irish-born artist Tony Swain, who trained at Glasgow School of Art and still lives and works in Glasgow. Swain, who was one of the artists representing Scotland in the 52nd Venice Biennale in 2007, is known for paintings depicting complex private worlds painted over newspaper pages, the newspaper providing both the physical ground and the conceptual starting point of each painting.
Swain paints landscapes, cityscapes, seascapes and interiors, frequented and constructed by mountains, sand dunes, meadows, trees, rocks, lighthouses, power stations, landmarks both natural and man-made, boats, bridges, buildings, houses, furniture and domestic objects. His imagery is often on a vast scale, encompassing huge vistas, but also collapses into intimacy. The marks he makes most usually organise themselves into representation, but sometimes remain as passages of painterly abstraction. A lot of the work generates the expectation of narrative, seeming to lead somewhere both conceptually and formally, yet it eschews this expectation, working instead on and with the picture plane. Fragments of the newspaper survive, transformed and transfigured by their inclusion in Swain's painted world.
This exhibition will consist entirely of new work, made specifically for The Fruitmarket Gallery.
Collecting Art with Christian Levett | Christie's
Art collector Christian Levett shows us around his Mougins Museum and explains how he scratches his collecting itch.
Introducing the medieval village of Mougins, a 20-minute drive from Cannes in the south of France, the British art collector Christian Levett explains that artists have been drawn to the region for centuries because of its brilliant light.
Mougins is where Levett has been spending time for the last 13 years. In 2009, the investment manager from London bought a holiday home in the village, then built the Mougins Museum of Classical Art to house the thousands of Greek, Roman and Egyptian artefacts he had been fastidiously collecting for years.
‘I think I have always been a natural collector. I collected coins and First and Second World War campaign medals as a child, and as I got into my twenties, I started collecting English medieval and Roman coins, and then I started buying artworks in my mid-twenties,’ Levett explains in our film. ‘Then I discovered the antiquities market.’
It was about 20 years ago when, out of nothing but curiosity, Levett ticked the box marked ‘antiquities’ on an auction house catalogue request form. ‘It struck me as unbelievable, absolutely mind-blowing, that you could buy ancient armour and classical marble sculptures,’ he told Christie’s Magazine in 2016. ‘And it all seemed so amazingly cheap compared with practically everything else.’
Levett is the first to admit that he became fanatical about the world of antiquities. As well as acquiring Minerva (a classical archaeology magazine) and funding excavations in Egypt, Italy, England and Spain, he would also leave dozens of absentee bids at antiquities auctions – sometimes buying up to 20 lots per sale.
Within a decade he had acquired more than 1,000 pieces, and soon realised he needed to invest in more infrastructure; larger storage, climate controls and a curator. The result was the Mougins Museum.

A Piece Of Ethiopia In Italy
The Vatican museums have sponsored an ambitious exhibition of Ethiopian religious art opening this week in Venice.
The exhibition Nigra Sum Sed Formosa, or Im black and beautiful, retells the history of Christianity in Ethiopia through a collection of icons, crosses, manuscripts and liturgical objects from the 12th to the 20th century.
Giuseppe Barbieri
Università Ca 'Foscari, Venice (Italy)
On one side, Ethiopia has retained some elements of the oldest Christian tradition, such as the churches of the East or the culture of Syria and on the other it has received influences from Western art.
One of the more impressive things about Ethiopian religious art, according to one of the curators, is the specificity of the iconography.
Giuseppe Barbieri
Università Ca 'Foscari, Venice (Italy)
Their iconography mixes the history of Christ with episodes from the history of Ethiopia. For example, shows Ethiopian saints at the foot of the cross.
Another curator suggests seeing the paintings on wood panels, a technique that Venetian artists brought to Ethiopia, proof of collaboration between both cultures.
Giuseppe Barbieri
Università Ca 'Foscari, Venice (Italy)
Is a longstanding relation because Venice was the gate to the East and everyone coming into Europe or leaving Europe for the ancient near east was suppose to pass through Venice.
Thats why a section is devoted to works by Italian artists, like this world map made by a Venetian friar with the help of Ethiopians that passed through Venice.
Giuseppe Barbieri
Università Ca 'Foscari, Venice (Italy)
Its a huge map, an amazing picture of the world because it anticipates a geographical exploration of the world 30 years before which at that time nobody could foresee.
Niccoló Brancaleone was another Venetian artist who influenced Ethiopias sacred art. Over the period of 40 years he taught Ethiopians how to paint the main figures of the Christian religion.
Giuseppe Barbieri
Università Ca 'Foscari, Venice (Italy)
The painter Nicholas Brancaleone was sent to Ethiopia by the main authority of Venice to teach painting, in particular the image of the Virgin Mary.
The exhibition also seeks to ensure Africa is not only remembered for its war or poverty, but for its beautiful and rich artistic tradition. .
