From Bosch Murakami, and if Versailles was Japanese. ...

Small "stress" cultural rights are not so ridiculous that they can shake us up a bit and we take a very gloomy day because large parts gray and black or mists endless. They give us the opportunity to think about art, about ourselves and the place that all these objects of art, design, and every day in a great maelstrom of the past and embracing the latest innovations creators of the world, occupy in our hearts and our dreams.

furniture Empire style

The mixture has always existed in art, furniture, decoration and fashion, at least since the time when art was considered as such! They were loving Roman Greek sculptures, cardinals love with Rome and ancient Greece that made their palaces the first "museum" private, aristocrats and explorers who gave such a taste for antiques or Belzoni Schliemann , and also inspired styles of distant civilizations as the "style Empire "that flourished especially after the campaigns of Bonaparte in Egypt and Art Deco inspired also of Egyptian art.

Should we also add the taste and the popularity of Japanese and Chinese porcelain in Europe since the fifteenth century and weight by following the East India Company in the import coveted porcelain (china clay research and discovery in France in the second half of the eighteenth s near Limoges used in the manufacture of hard porcelain, following this passion), the influence of Japanese prints on the paint impressionistic, the emergence of African art in the West through artists like Braque and Picasso that will revolutionize the art of the twentieth century and I certainly forget.

So it's a melting pot which has been constant focus, meet and learn from works, know-how and designers from backgrounds different from now and ever.

Japanese porcelain

This ferment has a weave and probably could be speak of "miscegenation" in art as can be expressed since the man travels back and concepts, colors, shapes and ideas from elsewhere.

For example, the recent retrospective of the work of Yves Saint Laurent at the Petit Palais in Paris showed the extraordinary wealth of imagination of the great couturier who has sought throughout his life forms and new materials, his wife and many other African make creations through the prism of references a tribute to womanhood.

Tastes just do not coexist in the space between a local tradition or national and external elements from the East and other continents fascinating weddings can also be done between different concepts from the same company, mixing ancient and modern. The Beaubourg museum has been an early and important example that has implanted in the heart of a district of Paris which was rooted between the XVII and XIX s s, same for the Pei pyramid.

The controversy now running around the museum of Versailles and works by Takashi Murakami , like yesterday for Jeff Koons, seems therefore rather meet a very special relationship that public opinion associated with Versailles and the Sun King rather than a so-called bias towards art forms.

Behind the "do not touch Versailles" to his style and his time is especially a " does not blur the image I have with the mythical palace of Versailles " had to be, because for every French Versailles seems to have become the refuge and sacred image of a France timeless at the height of his greatness, recognized and admired by all! That's my sense what is at stake or "I" (to make a play on words to Lacan) the case with modern artists exposed for some time at Versailles.

Niki de Saint Phalle

But for this "sacred" intransigent quietly leaves the room for art research, to question, to dream should accept the idea that there are no sacred space in which time can not act and that everything in the field of creation takes place and is intrinsically linked caves of Lascaux to the anti- art of the educated man to wildlife from the abyss!

The mixture of shapes and styles has always been there, I think he, since men covet the goods of other nations and it brings home the booty .

Today, out of no great interest the controversy about the installation or not of modern works in the heart of a great castle century, we find that our homes are become global hubs of styles, trends and inspirations very disparate cabinet Tibet alongside the Swedish furniture, Italian design poses beside Chinese pottery, all on a carpet in the Middle East or South America ... On our shelves novelists Greek, Chinese, Mexican and live music cd coexist between Andes, parts and other medieval religious world of islands ...

work of Murakami

Aged 48, Japanese Takashi Murakami , explores art that probably surprised us because it is rooted in the art of manga is to say, Japanese comics and cartoons, which for decades have gradually flooded the world. Building on the past while those exceeding the "grotesque drawings" (the name given initially by Hokusai in a series of cartoons published in the early nineteenth century) drawings have become familiar to millions of young people 's identify the "hero" by adopting hairstyle, clothes and gadgets of all kinds.

millefiori Murano

But this world is it so confusing for us? The "flowers reminiscent of Murakami they do not millefiori Murano in their gushing, geometric perfection of their shape and brightness of their colors? The characters are they not close relatives of those invented by pop art, including Keith Harring? Niki de Saint Phalle has she not already conceived human beings worthy of the "Star Wars"?

Moya

Moya creates Nice does he not also a dream world inspired by him and chewed like a character BD? And to go further back, Hieronymus Bosch, well ahead of its time, did he not open the doors of a bestiary half man-half animal as daunting as surreal?

The colorful, very quirky, very delusional already expressed for a long time on the paintings or sculptures!

Ultimately nothing is so new that, everything changes and now everything is going very quickly, since everything is accessible, assimilated and reinvented through the highways of the Internet in this strange world culture Nebula where we operate.
