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.

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.

Helsinki Ch R1: Joao Fonseca def. Jelle Sels [LL] 6-2, 6-3 Match Stats

📸 ATP official website

It was a complete masterclass from J. Fonseca, who controlled the flow from his powerful baseline play to his intuitive volleys at the net. This way, he outplayed J. Sels, who already had limited options, dominating the match as he converted 100% of his 4 break points thanks to his initiatives and aggression, while J. Sels' sole break of serve came from a service game slip from the Brazilian.

Besides, J. Fonseca's dominance was also reflected through his service games. Even though he scored 3 aces than J. Sels' 4, J. Fonseca won 69% of his first serve points, 15% more than J. Sels, which helped him dominate the flow. Interestingly, the unseeded Brazilian won 82% of his second serve points, leaving J. Sels' second serves more vulnerable as the Dutch only won 38% of his second serve points.

The second round would be a revenge mission as he will face Jan Choinski, who knocked out qualifier Sandro Kopp 6-2, 6-1 in a convincing showing. With their latest meeting being in Estoril (250), where the Brit won in three sets, this could be intriguing to see how the latter nailed the pace and the aggression indoors (and on the hard courts), where their range consistency would be tested. This could be a great start of a packed day!
