Frida Kahlo



Frida Kahlo

Información de Mexico.udg

Frida Kahlo (1907-1954). Nació y murió en Coyoacán, Distrito Federal. Su verdadero nombre era Magdalena Carmen Frida Kahlo Calderón.
Estudió en el Colegio Alemán y en la Escuela Nacional Preparatoria de la Ciudad de México. En 1925 experimentó un trágico accidente al ser prensado por un tranvía urbano el autobús de madera en el que viajaba.
Empezó a pintar durante una larga convalecencia copiando su rostro de un espejo montado en el dosel de la cama. Primero fue realista -retratos de amigos y familiares, flores-; después, a causa de la intensidad de sus sentimientos y de un cuerpo destrozado, pintó más y más su propia imagen combinada con expresiones oníricas a veces brutales. Parte de su obra incluso se ha asociado a tendencias surrealistas.
En 1929 contrajo nupcias con Diego Rivera de quien se divorció en 1940 para volverse a casar con él un año después. Fue maestra de pintura en la Escuela de Artes Plásticas, y miembro del seminario de Cultura Mexicana. En 1938 montó su primera exposición individual en la Julien Levy Gallery de Nueva York.
Trabajos de ella fueron incluidos en la Exposición "Mexique" de 1939, en la Galería Renou et Colle de París, así como en diversas colectivas a lo largo de su vida en México. Participó en la Exposición Internacional del Surrealismo organizada en 1940 en la Galería de Arte Moderno en la capital de México.
Instituciones de la importancia del Museo de Arte Moderno de Nueva York y Georges Pompidou de París alojan obra de Frida.

Laurie Lipton



Laurie Lipton

Laurie Lipton was born in New York. She was the first person to graduate from Carnegie-Mellon University in Pennsylvania with a Fine Arts Degree in Drawing (with honours). She has lived in Holland, Belgium, Germany and France and has made her home in London since 1986.
Lipton's drawings have been described as "cover[ing] social commentary, human observation and the absolute bizarre." Her work, distilled from her Freudian nightmares and oft-tortured world, lies within a "realm of experience amongst which we live, but few inhabit."

During a 2003 interview, Lipton expressed interest in challenging her perceptions of reality, using myth and symbolism to express the human condition. Her psychologically provocative imagery, its thematic continuum of fear, is a response to life as the perfect child - pretty, intelligent, well-behaved, very loving to her parents. She said, "I didn´t know what to do with the sizzling mass of negative feelings that infiltrated into my perfect being. I wasn´t encouraged to act out my fear or anger." She found a way to cope with the dark side of her soul through art, "I used to sit alone and draw for hours as a child. My parents were very proud of my talent and would display my work whenever company came to the house. People would look at me (a pretty, sweet little girl), then look at my drawings (monsters, screaming devils, mayhem and blood), and edge slowly away. My mother was asked how she felt about my "horrible, angry imagery". She merely shrugged her shoulders and said, "Better out than in".

Reka Nyari



Reka Nyari

The half-Finnish, half-Hungarian photographer Reka Nyari was born in Helsinki in 1979. Her love for the Fine Arts drew her to the School of Visual Arts in NYC, where she majored in Painting, creating large, hyper realistic oil paintings. After graduating, she travelled a few years across Europe and Asia, and then found herself back in New York making her living in the Nightlife Industry.

Her interest in Photography started at this time. In the early hours of the morning after getting off work, finding herself in need of an outlet to express her creativity, she started a black and white series called “The Late Night Sessions”. Using a little point-and-shoot camera, she documented herself, night after night in an attempt to capture her changing moods and emotions throughout the year. The photographs were initially meant to be private, a diary in images, but after a year she realized she had found her new passion and profession.

René Asmussen



René Asmussen

Información de Pixiport

He lives in chilly Scandinavia, the homeland of the Vikings (Denmark) in a city called Esbjerg.
He has been an artist photographer for about four years now and loves to work in the darkroom, where most of his photographs become reality. René works with the idea that his photos should be a bit on the "original" side. He says, "It's hard 'cause there are a lot of great artist and photographers in the world, whom I think work with the same idea." René goes on to say, "My inspiration comes mostly from artists like: Giger, Rembrandt, Odd Nedrum, and all the great photographers out there".
He works mostly in the darkroom, but sometime feels the need for color. Then he gets busy hand coloring (water based colors). He also loves to use the computer for his images. As he says, "To give them color and perhaps some grain, corns or noise."
As you review René's excellent graphic renditions, you'll gain a better understanding of this very warm spot in Denmark.
He is danish Photographer, he experiment with all sorts of photography. For him there are no rules on how to make a picture, Its only the final result that counts not how you archieve it. He just follow my instinct and press the button when the "feel" is there.
