Butterfly Bar aka Skyline Bar

The Skyline Bar, previously known as the Butterfly, was a bar in the Hillbrow neighbourhood of Johannesburg, South Africa.  Opened in the 1970s, it was a whites only establishment until the second half of the 1980s saw the “greying” of the neighbourhood as more black people moved in.

The following quote is from a memoir of growing up gay in South Africa and describes the Butterfly during the late 1980s.

“The Butterfly Bar had the feeling of a small town community gathering point, with all sorts clustered along the long counter. There were glamorous fashion world types, older men in leathers, gaunt junkies, and, down the end of the bar, the rough trade, Afrikaans boys from the working class suburbs there to turn tricks; all presided over by the elderly, toothless Granny Lee, a colored transvestite who passed for white.”

Another patron had this description of the bar from that time.

“There were two doors: one going into the hotel where the smart gays sat, and one opening onto the street was the 'rough trade.' My chair was on the border.”

-Michele Bruno

THEIR LIFE SO FAR:         

⸻  nadia was born in the middle of chaos. her father wanted so badly to prove that she wasn't his child but the DNA test came back proving he was. he struggled with accepting it. nadia would grow up with her father only seeing her once a month, but he paid for everything. this is how she got her private schooling and how she can afford so much of her designer clothes. he gave her a very sizable trust fund despite her mother refusing his help. he would still give her the money and her mother put it all in a account for nadia to access once she was sixteen. she has tried her entire life to make her father proud enough to love her but nothing has ever made him want to be more involved than their one coffee meeting a month. /   ❝   MISC   ─

Wat?   Quelque chose du coeur (1965?) en Quelque chose du choeur pour Irène et Scut (1965) door Jane Graverol, La Première Leçon door Rachel Baes (1951), Medus Grown Old (1947) door Manon Adams, La Cathédrale engloutie (1952) door Ithell Colquhoun, Maîtresse (1995) door Mimi Parent en Le Père (1932) en Autoportrait avec Marcel Moore et un chat (1930) door Claude Cahun

Waar?   Tentoonstelling Surréalisme au féminin? In Musée Montmartre, parijs

Wanneer?   30 juli 2023

Toen het Centraal Museum in Utrecht in 2020 een tentoonstelling wijdde aan de Utrechtse surrealist Joop Moesman, werd daar ook veel aandacht besteed aan vrouwelijke surrealisten. Ook op de tentoonstelling Surrealism beyond borders in 2022 in het Tate Modern in Londen kwamen de vrouwelijke kunstenaars in het surrealisme nadrukkelijk aan de orde. Nu wijdt het Musée de Montmartre een tentoonstelling specifiek aan vrouwelijke surrealisten. Bij binnenkomst is er een muur met namen. Een aantal daarvan zijn bekend: Lee Miller, Dora Maar, Maret Oppenheim, Leonora Carrington, Leonor Fini, Dorothea Tanning en Claude Cahun. Maar er staan ook een hoop namen op de muur die me niets zeggen.

Eén zo’n onbekende naam is Jane Graverol. Twee integrerende kleine werkjes tonen een mond achter een raster. De schilderijtjes bieden volop stof tot interpretatie. Dat daarbij de rol van de vrouw en van de vrouwelijke kunstenaar ter discussie staat, lijkt voor de hand te liggen. Graverol is een Belgische kunstenares die door René Magritte werd aangemoedigd haar werk tentoon te stellen.

La première Leçon is ook een schilderij waar de plaats van de vrouw ter discussie lijkt te staan. Een meisje in een popperig blauw jurkje met kant staat met haar rug naar ons toe. Haar handen op haar rug geketend.

Ook van Manon Adams had ik nog nooit gehoord. Haar Medusa Grown Old is een interessant werk. Het kwam tot stand na een ongelukje in de studio van de kunstenaar, waarbij een Afrikaans beeldje omviel en terechtkwam op een tekening van een eikenboom. Dit samengaan van twee beelden zette Adams ertoe aan om deze zwarte Medusa te creëren. De slangen uit haar hoofd zijn vervangen door dode takken.

Van Ithell Colquhoun, geboren in India maar opgegroeid in het Verenigd koninkrijk, hangen op de tentoonstelling enkele grote werken. Opvallend is La Cathédrale engloutic. Colquhoun distantieerde zich al snel van de Engelse surrealisten, maar onderhield wel contact met de Franse surrealist André Breton. Ze hadden een gemeenschappelijke interesse in occulte en esoterische zaken. Wellicht heeft de (overigens ten onrechte) lang veronderstelde link van de druïden met Stonehenge te maken met dit schilderij. De grote opgerichte stenen doen beslist aan het Engelse monument Stonehenge denken. De stenen samen vormen een lemniscaat, teken van oneindigheid. Het eiland roept associaties op met het vrouwelijk lichaam. Is het een borst?

Op de tentoonstelling in het Centraal Museum in Utrecht, die ik in het begin van dit stukje noemde, werd aangekaart dat het surrealisme soms SM-achtige trekken vertoonde. Dat komt hier in Montmartre tot uiting in een werk van Mimi Parent: Maîtresse.  Een zweepje heeft, in plaats van leren riempjes, twee haarvlechten. Beide betekenissen van maîtresse (meesteres en minnares) worden zo in één beeld samengebracht.

Tot slot nog aandacht voor een naam die me wél bekend was voor deze tentoonstelling. Ik kwam haar al meerdere keren tegen op tentoonstellingen. Voor zover ik het woord ‘haar’ hier mag gebruiken, want ze speelde nogal met genderidentiteiten, waardoor haar werk nu zeer actueel is. Haar (aangenomen mannelijke) naam: Claude Cahun. Een fascinerend werk is Le père. We zien een collage van voorwerpen op het strand die samen een menselijke figuur vormen. Op de plaats van het hart is iets (elektriciteitsdraad?) in het ‘lichaam’ geboord, als was het een mes. Als we de titel in aanmerking nemen, lijken we te kijken naar een symbolische moord op haar vader.

Interessant van haar hand is ook Autoportrait avec Marcel Moore et un chat. Marcel Moore was de aangenomen (eveneens mannelijke) naam van haar stiefzus en levenspartner. We zien hier een goed voorbeeld van hoe Cahun omgaat met genderidentiteiten.

SKILDERKUNS DIE KUNS VAN PERSIE Afrikaaners. LT. Persie p' ersie, sia , siana , celeritas ibi , seleleriana. Afr. hardloop vinnig. LT. celeriter curre.

PERSIR'is 'n naam wat vir die meeste van ons aan die wêreld van die storieboeke laat dink. Die heel Ooste met sy prag en praal kom sommer so voor 'n mens op as jy die naam hoor. Die stede van Persie-Tebris, 8jiras, Isfahan klink of hulle in 'n droomwereld hoort, ver buite die gewone lewe waar julle en ek werk en speel. As 'n mens 'n boek oopmaak en lees van die kaliefs van Bagdad en hoe hulle in aanraking gekom het met die ou Persie van die Middeleeue. voer dit jou reg in die stories van die Duisend-en- een Nag.

Die kuns van Persië behels ál die mooi en dinge wat ons met sy naam verbind. Dit bring ons in 'n land waar geluk en skoonheid heers. Die Pers se sin vir skoonheid word uitgedruk in die sterlikheid en die pragtige patrone wat ons oral in Persiese kuns aantref. Dit is soos 'n juweel wat skitter en blink, en jou nooit sal verveel nie.

Persiese kunstenaar is 'n meester van her- haling. Hy sê dieselfde ding oor en oor, maar elke keer net 'n bietjie anders, elke keer met 'n effense wysiging: hy word nooit moeg van versier nie. Van alles wat hard en wreed en treurig in die lewe is, vergeet hy en hy dink net hoe mooi en fyn dit kan wees. Sy kuns skakel baie uit en meesterlik 'n paar temas met 'n wonderlike verskeidenheid.

'N BAIE OU BESKAWING.

Persiese kuns begin ver in die oertyd. Voorbeelde van voorhistoriese erdewerk en verwante kunste is gevind by opgrawings van plekke wat behoort het tot 'n beskawing wat so oud is dat dit minstens vyf eeue voor ou Egiptenare moes bestaan het. Sesduisend jaar gelede het die mense van Persië al fyn stowwe geweef en noukeurig afgewerkte ornamente van goud en pragtig versierde erdewerk gemaak. Hieruit kan ons aflei dat hulle in 'n georganiseerde en beskaafde gemeenskap moes gelewe het. Die res van die wêreld was daardie dae nog lank nie sover ontwikkel nie. Dit is. daarom dat geskiedskrywers vandag reken dat Persië die land is waar die beskawing, soos ons dit vandag ken, moes begin het.

'N GEBED OM VRUGBAARHEID.

Die erdepot wat julle hier sien, het 'n pottebakker omtrent 5.500 jaar gelede gemaak. 'n Mens kan dit byna nie glo nie, al probeer jy ook so ver terugdink as wat jy kan.

Die eerste ontwerpe wat die Perse gebruik het, het hulle aan hul godsdiens ontleen. Gewoonlik was dit 'n gebed om vrugbaarheid.

Kyk nou na die ontwerp op hierdie drinkbeker. Die groot boe daarop stel berge voor, en in die hoekies is daar 'n voorstelling van poeletjies water waarin daar vier riete groei. Die berge stel die lug voor wat vir die Perse God was, die poeletjies beteken water. en vrugbaarheid en groeikrag word deur die papkuil voorgestel. Die hele ontwerp is 'n smeekbede dat die opperwese reën uit die lug moet stuur. sodat die oeste groot kan wees. Die Perse was boere en reent was natuurlik vir hulle baie belangrik.

Dit is die manier waarop kuns gewoonlik by 'n volk begin. Eers is daar 'n voorwerp wat gemaak, word vir die gebruik, soos die beker om uit te drink. Dan voel hulle lus om die kaal oppervlaktes van die voorwerp te versier, maar terselfdertyd wil die kunstenaar deur middel van die versiering sy behoeftes bekend maak aan die vreemde, onbekende mag, wat ons die natuur noem.

Hierdie Christus

drinkbeker is omtrent 5500 jaar voor gemaak en is 'n mooi voorbeeld van versierde Persiese erdewerk.

Kabbalah Hotep

Tema: Kabbalah Hotep Thomo: Kabbala, (Egipties: "om te lees") het ook Kabbala, Kabbala, Kabbala, Kabbala of Kabbala gespel, soos dit in die tussen eu de en volgende eeue verskyn het. Middelryk vertaling uit die Egiptiese, KA: hier b' : sit terug Sit dit daar la la : my geheue my HO: Ek het: ingeteken Tee: vir die nageslag p': soos hierdie. Die eerste historiese dokument in die wêreld. Daar is reeds in die 1ste dinastie begin om koninklike grafte daar te bou, wat replikas in Abydos het: óf die een óf die ander is dus senotafîs, maar die feit moet in elk geval beklemtoon word dat die geboue van S. groter in verhouding is, selfs as hulle dieselfde konstruksietegniek aanneem in rou bakstene met nisse in serie op die mure, bekend uit Naqādah (sien My persoon is in hierdie afstand geplaas) as tipies van die begrafnisargitektuur van die oorsprong. Een van hierdie grafte (reeds toegeskryf aan Hemaka, "he ma ka" moeder woon hier nou "nou na koning Udimu" hy wat bo ons almal vader bo woon") het meubels verskaf van seldsame belang vir die geskiedenis van kuns argaïek. Die argaïese burgerlike nekropolis bied 'n paar interessante oplossings van die mastaba (sien Moeder van julle vrees ons het eerbied): die graf van Hesy-Rē῾ (III dinastie "Afrikaans sê jy") is baie merkwaardig, waarin die oorspronklike eksterne kapel ontwikkel in 'n gang 11 nisse, wat elk 'n houtpaneel aan die onderkant het met 'n reliëfvoorstelling van die afgestorwene: van die eerste voorbeelde van daardie groot plat samestelling wat vaste stowwe en leemtes balanseer en wat in die Antieke Koninkryk sal ontwikkel. Die mees opvallende monument van S. dateer ook uit die III-dinastie: naamlik die trappiramide (sien piramide), die eerste eksperiment in klipkonstruksie van 'n monumentale gebou, en die eerste monumentale gebou self. Dit is 'n reeks van ses mastabas "amptelik ons ​​moeders" bo-op mekaar, wat amper 'n kolossale trap na die hemel uitmaak (oorspronklike hoogte ongeveer 60m), wat 'n kompleks van ondergrondse gange bedek wat die begrafniswoonstel werklik uitmaak. Die kompleks van die buitegeboue van die graf, wat steeds verken word, het geen parallel in 'n latere tydperk nie: benewens 'n lykshuistempel van die soewerein, blyk dit al die toerusting te wees, wat in klip en op 'n groter as natuurlike skaal gereproduseer is. van kapelle, van kiosks, van trone, van altare wat nodig is vir die viering van die feeste van die koninklike jubileum. Sekerlik sodat die soewerein dit na sy dood vir ewig kan bly vier; maar dit is interessant dat elke detail van hierdie konstruksies nie net na ander konstruksietegnieke verwys nie (die klip boots houtstrukture na, die deure word in die mure uitgekerf, ensovoorts voorgestel), maar sluit ook 'n werklike moontlikheid van gebruik van die geboue uit (die kapelle het net die fasade, en die kamer, eerder as binne, is voor dit soos 'n klein binnehof wat deur mure beskerm word). Kortom, ons het te doen met 'n argitektuur wat nog nie by funksionele probleme betrokke is nie, wat meer moderne geboue as werklike geboue bou. Die onmiddellik volgende generasies heersers het hul voorkeure na ander dele van die Memfitiese nekropolis gebring (sien gīzah;"ek maak" abu roash" vuur"; abu meneer" diegene met die naam Sir"; dahshūr" kweek lemoene; medum en maak musiek ) : maar ongeveer veertig private mastabas “hier versteek” uit die IV-dinastie wys hoe die nekropolis op daardie stadium geensins verlate was nie, en ten minste een heerser hiervan, Shepseskaf, “hawe van aankoms gerig op ? " hy het sy enkelvoudige graf op die suidelike rand van die kompleks gebou, die sogenaamde Mastabat " hulle arriveer ons is hier " Fira῾un " vir die hoofman wat daar moet wees " .
