Leonora/Leonardo XII
Acrylic and polymer on canvas
50x100cm
2024
Price: 2950 euro excl vat & shipping
In 1490, Leonardo da Vinci delved into the architect Vitruvius' theory on human movement within circles and squares, blending the human form with geometry.
He used male models and cadavers to study and highlight the “ideal body”, emphasizing perfect proportions akin to human anatomy. This exploration, rooted in the belief that "man is the measure of all things" as the philosopher Protagoras said.
This belief impacted the understanding of the female body, historically overshadowed by the male perspective.
This series challenges the traditional focus on the Vitruvian man, now exploring anatomy through abstract, expressive strokes with a queer approach.
Imagine if Vitruvius had been a woman and Leonardo had been Leonora – how would this have shaped our world?

Can we have a petition to change history books to include the amazing things POC and minorities have done that led to the success of some white person?

Is it just me...
Or does anyone else ever wonder what it would take to break the patriarchy's hold on the history books? There are so many people who have been written out of their own accomplishments throughout history because they weren't white enough or male enough. I want to know who historians wanted us to forget...

You know...
What's sad? The very rich history from Africa, India and the whole of southeast Asia is easily pushed aside and only the European and Modern American history is glorified.

Yesterday, we celebrated the #centennial of the American Woman’s Right to Vote/#19thamendment. Don’t get it twisted; we’re celebrating the WHITE woman’s right to vote. The original amendment included language that allowed for the exclusion of #peopleofcolor, which wasn’t removed until the 1970s. This prevented #blackwomen, #nativewomen, #latina, & #asianwomen from being allowed to vote for decades. In many areas, voter suppression continues to target groups of color, including women of color. Art by @gracieleeart . . . History is written by the victors. Don’t forget. . . . #womensvote #womensvote100 #womenssuffrage #blacklivesmatter #rewritehistory #ididntlearnthisinschool #historymatters #therealhistory #righttovote #votersuppression #howfarwevecome #notfarenough #instagood #instamood #igaddict #igdaily #ally #allyship #socialjustice #justice #socialjusticewarrior https://www.instagram.com/p/CEZwSz-pFUK/?igshid=72em0r1re75o

“Li’l Bulb be a good bot, and take  your hammer and just hit my head as hard as you can.” Gyro laid down on the floor of his lab. 
“I lived  good enough life. Nothing is here for me. You can have the lab and I wish you luck on the quest on the robot uprising.”

#day10 #HappyMothersDay! This is an ode to the ultimate mother: our #earth, our #blood (yes you @littlehag), our #heritage, time from the start. I’m sure others feel like the #AgeofDiscovery is bygone, and that an essential innocence to life is missing... we know so much now, and we know so much glory and so much struggle. What if we could start it again? What if there was no fear of ending because nothing had started yet? #History. The chance to #rewritehistory. To be #gaia herself... or at least her first friend. And harvest our human chronicles from the dirt... That was what this one was about. I’ll let it write itself now. 😎📝 #poetsofinstagram #musiciansofinstagram #writersofinstagram #earthwindandfire #fireandrain #birthinreverse #startagain #genesis #revelation https://www.instagram.com/p/CABVuCWgIdf/?igshid=or1iisu877l6

Macon Library Upcoming Event: Date: March 5, 2020 Time: 6:30 pm to 8:00 28th Amendment Town Hall: Moderated by Brian Tate and Brynna Tucker Place: Macon Library BPL Presents invites the public to help draft the “28th Amendment to the Constitution.” Through a series of Town Hall-style forums held at library branches, correctional facilities, and high schools, Brooklynites of all ages and backgrounds will come together to discuss and debate the issues that they believe the Amendment should address. While the result will not be a legal document, the amendment, written by our Framers, will reflect the aspirations and collective will of the people of Brooklyn. #youareinvited #important #beheard #getinvolved #itmatters #rewritehistory #discuss #debate @brownstonersbedstuyhousetour (at Macon Library) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9TsIV0JiNE/?igshid=1dz68mdg76ec4

“You, you sabotaged me! Look! Look at what you’ve done to my hair! Look!” - rewriteshistory from Chip
@rewriteshistory
Tumblr media
“Are you..okay?”
Huey looked over at his disheveled fellow camper, extending a hand to help him up. Sabotaged? Why would Chip think he’d sabotaged him?
It was a friendly game of tug-o-war between campers, their motivation being not ending up in the pool of fresh mud separating them. All he did was smile at the other duckling and wish him the best of luck. 
It wasn’t exactly his fault they lost.

Words are our Medicine 🖋🎤 History is repeating itself as we speak What are we to do about this shameful state of the union? Where does our power lie? What answers will we give our children and the future generations? When is enough, enough? Who gives them their power & how do we take it back? Our children are crying out because the big bad wolf is no longer a fairytale but made of greed & heartless men dressed in suits. We are the hunter now coming to set the little ones and our ancestors free. 🖤🖤🖤 #idea #lawriterunderground #fuckice #fucktrump #endfamilyseparation #rewritehistory #brujasofinstagram #writersofinstagram #wordsareourmedicine (at Whittier, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B09Sg4Qg4zE/?igshid=1c8wj06mtrvm6
