Traiter les pierres vivantes avec des produits
Traiter les pierres vivantes avec des produits
Le traitement des pierres ex vivantes pour les rendre « neuves », c’est-à-dire libérées de tout ce qui est organique puis de les débarrasser des phosphates. ” 1er bain dans un bac, ou une poubelle neuve et propre, remplie avec 25 litres d’eau osmosée et auxquels on rajoute un litre d’eau oxygénée (H2O2). L’idée est de diluer cette eau oxygénée pour arriver à niveau bactéricide pas trop…

Le lac des morts vivants (Zombie Lake, 1981)
"Stories about the lake of the damned go back to the Inquisition. They used to celebrate Black Masses back in the Middle Ages: they would sacrifice children, which they threw into it so as to appease the spirits which otherwise rose out of their watery grave in search of blood. And we too, we've used it as an unholy grave during the war. But the soldiers we threw in were not a sacrifice... and they're coming back with a vengeance."

Rollin took over only as a favour to the producer‚ a friend‚ and also brought on another director with whom he split duties. this#was by every account just a paycheck to the French maverick of phantasmagoria‚ and boy does it show. his disinterest in the material is#palpable‚ and can be forgiven considering the shoddy script‚ largely terrible cast (Vernon is giving it his all tbf) and the truly woeful#zombie makeup. some green looking nazis creep out of a lake‚ kill some naked women‚ and creep back in. rinse and repeat a few times and#that's basically all there is to this faintly depressing little misfire. of interest really only for its inclusion on the video nasties#list and as a comparison piece to the film Franco made instead (Oasis of the Zombies) but otherwise this has very little to recommend it#if you had any interest at all in watching a Rollin film‚ then watch any of them but this (but ideally The Iron Rose or Living Dead Girl)

Controversial Public Art
I am not someone who believes art is just meant for museums or for hanging in your homes. Although those are amazing places for them, I feel art is meant to be experienced in aspects of our every day lives. Out in the world as we walk through it. So I am a huge advocate for public art.
Very briefly that is defined as:
"Public Art is Artwork in the public realm, regardless of whether it is situated on public or private property, or whether it is acquired through public or private funding. Public art can be a sculpture, mural, manhole cover, paving pattern, lighting, seating, building facade, kiosk, gate, fountain, play equipment, engraving, carving, fresco, mobile, collage, mosaic, bas-relief, tapestry, photograph, drawing, or earthwork" -Jack Becker Monograph 2004
Public art is a way to beautify your spaces, express the unique aspects of your community and express the different culture and values of the people who live all around you. It can Commemorate events, people, or important groups that and their impacts to society. However, as with all art, you can't avoid controversy. Whether it be from who paid for the installation, to the subject matter. From proper representation, to where the piece is placed. What medium is used in its creation, or who the artist is. All of these things can lead to communities having a strong backlash to artistic pieces being displayed and some even turn to violent outbursts against the art or even their creators.
This is a list today I would like to discuss some controversial public art pieces. Maybe I will go more in depth about some of them later, but these are some big ones that stick in the public conscious today.
Richard Serra's Tilted Arc
This is a 12 foot tall, 120 foot long tiled steal plate that ran through Manhattan's federal plaza from 1981 to 1989. This wall forced people to take an inconvenient route through the plaza for most of the 80's. The goal of the piece was to inspire the viewer to become aware of themselves and their movement through the plaza, but it caused an imposition on government workers. The piece had a lot of support of modern artists,but by 1985 there was a hearing to remove the Arc and a court voted 4-1 to remove it. Due to the artists insistence that it never be displayed again it is now in government storage.
How Ya Like Me Now? by David Hammond
Painted in 1988 and commissioned by the Washington Project for the Arts for an exhibition on black culture and modernism this 14 foot by 16 foot billboard was poorly received to say the least. Local youths did not connect with the artists intended message of how popular culture was co-opting and commodifying black identity and whitewashing it. They interpreted it as racist so they tore the display down with sledgehammers. The piece was later reinstalled with the sledgehammers as part of the final piece incorporating the vandalism and backlash into the final work only this time it is inside the gallery and not on a street corner across from the National Portrait Gallery in D.C.
Just kidding , I couldn't find a good artist photo
Traffic Light Tree by Pierre Vivant
A sculpture originally located in Canary Wharf London in 1998 after a competition run by the Public Art Commissions Agency. It was moved to Billingsgate Market. It stands at 8 meters or 26.24 feet tall and has 75 sets of traffic lights. Vivant stated that it was to represent adjacent plane tree and the restless rhythm of the city. It was installed to replace a dying plane tree in the center of a roundabout, but the controversy arose when motorist confused the installation as an actual traffic light. Despite the initial controversy it has won over the city and is now viewed as one of the most pleasing roundabouts, although it still does cause confusion with tourists.
Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial by Lei Yixin
Built in 2011 this sculpture was controversial from start to finish. Recognized as a master sculptor in China and having sculpted monuments that included the communist leader Mao Zedong, his appointment to sculpt the Dr King statue was protested due to members of human rights organizations decrying the appointment of his visual support of the CCP. Others felt that the statue should have been done by an African American artist. They disliked the use of Chinese granite and not American granite. The quote engraved on the side was abridged in a way that changed the meaning and upset many, to the point where a year later it was removed to now only show abstract striations.
Tree by Paul McCarthy
Displayed in October 2014 at the International Fair of Contemporary Art in Palace Vendôme in Paris this abstraction of a Tree in a reminiscent way of a modern impressionist was a 24 meter or 78.74 foot tall green canvas butt plug shape because he thought they looked similar to trees so he created it as a tree abstraction. He was actually assaulted by someone while installing it, and it was destroyed two days later because some people thought it was offensive to children. Tree was displayed again in 2016 at Paramount Ranch 3 and it was well received by visitors.
Dirty Corner by Anish Kapoor
I feel a list of modern controversial art wouldn't be complete without Anish Kapoor, but my feelings are not why he is on the list. It is because he is a controversial artist. All his controversies deserve a post of their own, so only one is on this list. This art piece was created in 2011, but when it was brought to the Palace of Versailies in 2015 is when it hit its peak. The 60 meter (196.85ft) long and 8 meter(26.25ft) tall cone was described by Kapoor as "the vagina of a queen who was taking power". Critics hated the sexual nature and its nickname is "the Queen's Vagina." The idea was to enter the cone shaped piece and loose your perception of space the deeper you went into it. People vandalized the piece with antisemitic slurs as Kapoor's mother is Jewish. After some legal fights and wanting to leave the vandalism as a statement to the horror and intolerance of humanity, he was ordered to cover or remove the vandalism. He chose to cover it with gold leaf as "a royal response" the piece is no longer on display in France.
Mount Rushmore National Memorial by Gutzon Borglum
Sculpted from 1927 to 1941 This might be a controversial one to add for many Americans. But I wanted to focus on the 20th and 21st centuries and so I feel I would be remiss to not add this monument to America. Carved in the Black Hills of South Dakota by a close friend of Teddy Roosevelt and known Klan associate. This monument to the greatness of American expansionism in the early 20th century is also a monument to how American presidents directly participated, through policy or active participation in the taking and desecration of Native American lands. The Black Hills are considered a Holy Site to the Lakota people, and in the Fort Laramine Treaty of 1868 it was considered exempt from white settlement forever. But gold was discovered so the treaty was violated. Where Mount Rushmore is located is also home to Custer State Park, named after an American general who actively participated in the violation of the Treaty. Mount Rushmore was meant to be a Monument to America's Greatness as embodied by our Presidents, but it at the same time is a symbol of our expansion, treaty violations, and exploitation of the land and people of this nation. It remains a site of protest, the rock itself isn't great for carving and people think about adding more to it. The National Park service have dismissed the idea of altering it at all. People are divided about the site to this day. Some want it destroyed, some want to use it for education, but i have to say the National Park splash page doesn't help much with the education, and some just want the Lakota people to have their Holy Site back. The Lakota won a lawsuit for 17+million dollars, but they also just want the Land and not money as it is a holy site, and they continue to protest. The carving can not be undone, so the site remains a divisive reminder of American History that is often just a footnote in the education of most.
If you can think of any public artwork that you think is controversial please share it! Even if its just a public art work that someone has in their lawn that people in your community cant stand. Art should promote discussion, learning, and growth!

#Le cimetière de Sapânta a la réputation d’être le plus joyeux au monde. Et pour cause : les traditions valaques de cette région du nord de l#la mort étant associée à un état d’immortalité. Oubliés sous l’influence de l’Eglise#ils ont été remis au goût du jour par Stan Ioan Patras. En 1935#ce sculpteur décide d’orner les pierres tombales du cimetière du village de motifs joyeux et colorés. A sa mort#son apprenti a pris le relais. Les quelque 800 stèles sont désormais toutes surmontées d’un bas-relief représentant une scène de la vie quo#ou mentionnant les causes du décès du défunt#voire accompagnées d’une amusante épitaphe afin de redonner le sourire aux vivants.#**#The Sapânta cemetery has the reputation of being the happiest in the world. And for good reason: the Wallachian traditions of this region o#death being associated with a state of immortality. Forgotten under the influence of the Church#they have been brought up to date by Stan Ioan Patras. In 1935#this sculptor decided to adorn the tombstones of the village cemetery with joyful and colorful motifs. When he died#his apprentice took over. The approximately 800 stelae are now all surmounted by a bas-relief representing a scene from daily life#or mentioning the causes of death of the deceased#or even accompanied by an amusing epitaph to bring a smile back to the living.

En ce Jour du Souvenir, portons le coquelicot et accordons une minute de silence pour tous les soldats qui se sont sacrifiés pour notre liberté! N'oublions pas non plus d'honorer nos vétérans et ceux qui servent le pays car ils le méritent. En espérant que l'avenir nous apportera des temps de paix, voici un poème de Paul Eluard:
Sur mes cahiers d’écolier Sur mon pupitre et les arbres Sur le sable sur la neige J’écris ton nom Sur toutes les pages lues Sur toutes les pages blanches Pierre sang papier ou cendre J’écris ton nom Sur les images dorées Sur les armes des guerriers Sur la couronne des rois J’écris ton nom Sur la jungle et le désert Sur les nids sur les genêts Sur l’écho de mon enfance J’écris ton nom Sur les merveilles des nuits Sur le pain blanc des journées Sur les saisons fiancées J’écris ton nom Sur tous mes chiffons d’azur Sur l’étang soleil moisi Sur le lac lune vivante J’écris ton nom Sur les champs sur l’horizon Sur les ailes des oiseaux Et sur le moulin des ombres J’écris ton nom Sur chaque bouffée d’aurore Sur la mer sur les bateaux Sur la montagne démente J’écris ton nom Sur la mousse des nuages Sur les sueurs de l’orage Sur la pluie épaisse et fade J’écris ton nom Sur les formes scintillantes Sur les cloches des couleurs Sur la vérité physique J’écris ton nom Sur les sentiers éveillés Sur les routes déployées Sur les places qui débordent J’écris ton nom Sur la lampe qui s’allume Sur la lampe qui s’éteint Sur mes maisons réunies J’écris ton nom Sur le fruit coupé en deux Du miroir et de ma chambre Sur mon lit coquille vide J’écris ton nom Sur mon chien gourmand et tendre Sur ses oreilles dressées Sur sa patte maladroite J’écris ton nom Sur le tremplin de ma porte Sur les objets familiers Sur le flot du feu béni J’écris ton nom Sur toute chair accordée Sur le front de mes amis Sur chaque main qui se tend J’écris ton nom Sur la vitre des surprises Sur les lèvres attentives Bien au-dessus du silence J’écris ton nom Sur mes refuges détruits Sur mes phares écroulés Sur les murs de mon ennui J’écris ton nom Sur l’absence sans désir Sur la solitude nue Sur les marches de la mort J’écris ton nom Sur la santé revenue Sur le risque disparu Sur l’espoir sans souvenir J’écris ton nom Et par le pouvoir d’un mot Je recommence ma vie Je suis né pour te connaître Pour te nommer Liberté.

N'empêche imagine, tu es la personnalité préférée des Français, un auteur-compositeur-interprète reconnu, et accessoirement, ton demi-frère a été accusé d'avoir tué deux pharmaciennes dans un procès ultra-médiatique dans les années 70 puis il a été assassiné en pleine rue deux ans avant que tu ne deviennes ultra connu (en 1979).
Y a encore un nouveau film sur Pierre Goldman, son célèbre demi-frère doit être ra-vi
