Happy Birthday Tilda Swinton!

[i-read-somewhere-that]

Tilda Swinton’s partner made the Rosenthaler’s art for The French Dispatch.

Along with his gifted assistants Sian Smith and Edith Baudrand, Kopp relocated his studio to the abandoned paper mills in the French town of Angoulême to work on the paintings amid the frenetic atmosphere of the film shoot. Here, with the input of Anderson, he created Rosenthaler’s entire oeuvre, drawing on influences such as Frank Auerbach, Willem de Kooning, and Francis Bacon while retaining a distinct style capable of acting as the catalyst for a radical rethinking of painting itself.

I never quite understand the way society decides who is beautiful and who is not.  But an open face and a capacity for kindness always feel like reliable signifiers to me.

εντροπία*

προσπαθώ να θυμηθώ τον όρο εντροπία. μου έμαθες τι σημαίνει και προσπαθώ με δύναμη να το θυμηθώ, αλλά δυσκολεύομαι. ο ήλιος κάνει ένα ψηφιακό λακάκι στο πρόσωπό μου, ή μάλλον είναι το φως που πέφτει στην κάμερα της οθόνης; η απόσταση μοιράζεται. δεν είναι τόσο μεγάλη. μου λείπεις. σου έστειλα αυτή την φωτογραφία για να θυμηθείς το πρόσωπό μου. η θάλασσα εδώ είναι ήρεμη. όχι τόσο όσο το πρωί. τι θα συνέβαινε αν η ζωή ήταν μια ατελείωτη λούπα. ο όρος εντροπία έπαψε να μου είναι άγνωστος από τότε που μου τον έμαθες εσύ, ανεξάρτητα από το εάν θα τον θυμηθώ ή όχι. η καρακάξα δεν ήρθε σήμερα. δεν θα ένιωθε μοναξιά; άνοιξα ένα βιβλίο. κάπως πρέπει να περάσουν αυτές οι ώρες. η διάρκεια της λούπας είναι ασαφής, αν και εμένα μάλλον μου αρέσει ο γκαίτε. κάθε ον κάνει ό,τι μπορεί για να νιώθει χαρούμενο. έτσι κι εγώ. προσπαθώ. υπάρχουν πολλές ταινίες με την λέξη εραστές μέσα. εμένα αυτή μου αρέσει περισσότερο. φυσικά. ντιτρόιτ-μαρόκο. ένα μικρό αεροπλάνο. φόρεσες τελικά την ροζ γούνα. αυτή που αγαπώ. θα συναντηθούμε στον 61ο παράλληλο. εκεί θα μας συναντήσει η καρακάξα, θα είναι ωραία και εκεί δεν θα νιώθουμε μόνοι.

The second-round action in the Helsinki Challenger the other day continued with Joao Fonseca, who previously nailed his first-round match against lucky loser Jelle Sels 6-2, 6-3 in an almost flawless performance, taking on Jan Choinski, who defeated qualifier Sandro Kopp 6-2, 6-1 in another solid performance. This was a notable rematch from the first round of Estoril (250), where the latter dug deep to win the said match in three sets, but this chaos would only require either of them to put the ball in play, specifically as things got more physical in this match.

J. Fonseca kicked off the match with a forehand down-the-line winner as he capitalized on J. Choinski's previous errors before breaking early to 1-0, consolidating to 2-0 right after. Somehow, his fourth-shot forehand winners created his latest break point somewhere in the next game before he doubled his break advantage to 3-0. Subsequently, the Brazilian strengthened his position with a service game hold to 4-0.

Somehow, J. Fonseca continued his dominance as he found the court, noticeably firing another fourth-shot winner to triple his break lead (5-0), thus earning him the opportunity to serve for the first-set bagel. Without any further hesitation, he fired a backhand pass to create his set point after minimizing the deficit when J. Choinski struck back, ultimately taking the first set 6-0 to assert his dominance in this match.

Artist research: Sandro Kopp

Sandro Kopp is a German artist who graduated with a degree in fine art and English. He is most famous for his beautiful portraits, in particular his eye portraits. I really love these portraits because of the style of painting, and the patterns he creates in the iris. I was inspired by this to create my own collection of eye portraits of friends and family.

can you name anyone with a messier start to their relationship than thos two?

This is an interesting ask. Thank you for sending it in. Nothing I love more than a celebrity research project. 😉

One relationship that is the stuff of twisted-soap-opera legend for sure is that of Tilda Swinton and her boyfriend Sandro Kopp.

They met on a film set when he 24 and she was 43. That's a nineteen-year spread between them. However, at the time, she was in a relationship with Scottish playwright John Byrne, who was older than her by 21 years, making him 64. So, yes, she left her then-boyfriend for someone 40 years his junior.

That's not all. John was legally married during his entire fifteen-year relationship with Tilda to a woman he met while in art school. They were married for 50 years before finally divorcing in 2014. John is also the product of an incestuous affair between his mother and his grandfather. That's still not all. Tilda, her boyfriend Sandro, her ex John, and the twins she shares with John, all lived under one roof together in Scotland as recently as in 2015.
