One of the most fascinating aspects of art is its ability to evoke different meanings and interpretations from the viewer. During my recent visit to the Didrichsen Art Museum , I came across a piece called "Dialogue" that really captured this essence. The analysis of the piece emphasized the idea that there is no way to not interpret what we see in art, and that this interpretation requires interaction between the viewer and the piece. Have you come across any pieces lately that have left you contemplating their meaning? #interpretation #dialogue

My latest article for #TheArtNewspaper on a play by activist investors to shutter a museum and potentially liquidate its collection all in the name of better shareholder returns. It may looks like an art museum but through the eyes of Hong Kong-based #OasisManagement the Kawamura Memorial Museum of Art, which houses one of the most impressive collections of 20th Century Western art in Japan and one of only four #RothkoRooms in the world (along with Contemporary Japanese art), is little more than an underperforming capital asset that needs to be sold off and downsized or shut down. As part of this move the museum's entire collection has been listed with a book value thatis far below the amount the museum sold a single work by Barnett Newman in 2013 ... Known as #vultureinvestors, #OasisManagement has a track record of upending companies and ousting board members and CEOs to get their way. Despite the mayor of Sakura City and the Governor of Chiba prefecture publilcy putting their support behind a petition it was up to a concerned local to start one - if you inclined here's the link ->https://chng.it/8gmYtmRmSn #profitsoverpeople #corporatesocialresponsibility

According to UNESCO intangible cultural heritage are the traditions or living expressions inherited from our ancestors and passed on to our descendants, among others the knowledge and skills to produce traditional crafts. All over the world capable hands replicate movements that have developed during centuries and they create traditional objects as well as innovative elements. Museums are the perfect place to learn about the past, the lace schools such us the Il Giardino dei Punti in Milan or workshops like UnPizzo in Cantu are the perfect place to meet women that are innovating today. In all our journeys the encounter with those who preserve and pass down intangible cultural heritage is central. People are our main destination.

The circles are run through with so-called Brownian Walks. This is a way of randomly going down the letters as found phonetic objects. The letters are named on one side by Roland Kuit and on the other by artist Karin Schomaker. The trajectories of randomness can be followed in these circles. It is a process of discovering random synchronicity. That is where the found meaning lies. https://lnkd.in/eFUwCNyh
