Hundertwasser Manifesto - Austria Trip (I)

Why may a human being not do what he needs to do, like a flower.

The colourful, the abundant, the manifold, is always better than mediocre grey and uniformity.

Only those who think and live creatively will survive in this life and beyond.
(Hundertwasser)

De ce nu poate un om să se comporte ca o floare!

Culorile, abundenta, varietatea  sunt mai bune decât griurile mediocre şi uniformitatea.

Numai cei care cred şi trăiesc creativ vor supravieţui în această viaţă şi dincolo de ea.

(Hundertwasser)

Paintings for me are gateways, which enable me, if I have

been successful, to open them into a world which is both

near and far for us, to which we have no admission, in

which we find ourselves, but which we cannot perceive,

which is against the real world

Our parallel world, from which we remove ourselves in one respect

Yes, and that is the paradise, that is what we are in, what we are arrested in, and which some inexplicable power denies us.
(Hundertwasser)

Picturile pentru mine sunt porti care ma lasa sa descopar o lume atât de

aproape dar intangibila , in care nu putem intra, dar in care suntem ... pe care nu o putem percepe,

si care este împotriva lumii reale.

Lumea noastră paralela, din care ne autoexcludem într-un fel.

Da, ăsta este paradisul, suntem in el, suntem arestaţi în el, paradisul in care o putere inexplicabilă ne neagă.

(Hundertwasser)

I believe, and I am absolutely certain, and therefore I believe, that painting is a religious occupation, that the actual impulse comes from without, from something else that we do not know, an indefinable power which comes or does not come and which guides your hand

People used to say in earlier times that it was the muse, for example, it's a stupid thing to say of course, but it is some kind of illumination.

And the only thing one can do is to prepare the ground, so that this extraterrestrial impulse or however else one might describe it can reach you.

Cred şi sunt absolut sigur şi prin urmare, cred că pictura este o ocupaţie religioasa, că impulsul real vine din afară de la altceva ce nu stim, o putere nedefinita care vine sau nu vine şi care ghidează mâna...

Oamenii obişnuiau să spună demult că a fost muza ! Pare un lucru stupid , dar este un fel de iluminare!

Şi singurul lucru pe care- l putem face este să pregătim terenul, astfel încât acest impuls extraterestru sau cum vrem sa-l numim , ne poate atinge.

(Hundertwasser)

That means eliminating the will, eliminating the intelligence, eliminating "wanting to do better", eliminating ambition...

I should perhaps like to be known as the magician of vegetation or something similar. We are in need of magic

I fill a picture until it is full with magic, as one fills up a glass with water

Everything is so infinitely simple, so infinitely beautiful.

Venice, 1975
(Hundertwasser)


Asta înseamnă că trebuie sa fii pregătit....
Asta înseamnă să elimini vointa , inteligenta, să elimini  "vreau  mai bine, mai mult", să elimini ambiţia!
Aş vrea, probabil, să fiu cunoscut ca vrăjitorul copacilor sau ceva similar. Avem nevoie de magie!
Aş umple o imagine numai cu magie, ca şi cum ai umple un pahar cu apă!
Totul este atât de  infinit de simplu , aşa infinit de frumos.
Veneţia, 1975
(Hundertwasser)

Hundertwasser is one of the most important artists & architects to emerge from the latter half of the 20th-century and is certainly by far the most important Austrian one.

At Art Words - Place Holder

Richard Klekociuk - the Artist , the Rocks and his Magical Pencils

Richard live in Tasmania.

"Tasmania is truly a wonderful place in which to live. The scenery is simply stunning and its population of 495,000 is well scattered throughout the island except for the southwest which is a wilderness area, most of which is listed in the national heritage register." he said....

"When I was in year nine at high school I was taught Art by Geoff Page who was such an inspiration to me that all I wanted to do was to become an Art teacher like him, and I did! I graduated from the Tasmanian School of Art in 1971 and taught in numerous schools before my retirement and loved the job!"

ART Review

The Truth About Coloured Pencils

Exhibition

Silence at the Table

Richard: "This is my favourite drawing from my exhibition.
For me personally, I think it’s right up there with the best work that I’ve ever done.
Although it was very time-consuming, it was a delight to build up the various layers, especially on the door which is full of graffiti."

WHAT THE CRITIC SAID

Richard: "There is still a hard-edged element in a lot of my work. I love using shadows and strong light. I am intrigued by the patterns that appear on rocks, reflections in water, tumbling, spraying waves and “transparent” surfaces such as rock pools and backwaters."

Quiet corner SISTERS BEACH

Richard: "I have been fascinated by the colour, size, shape, variety and texture of rocks. Let’s face it, rocks are everywhere...."

Backwater ROCKY CAPE

Richard: "There is something very special when you put a pencil in your hand and push it over a responsive surface such as heavyweight watercolour paper or pastel board. The response is instant: a line, a mass of colour – a shape. Colours can be laid down side-by-side or overlaid."

Richard: "My aim is to keep improving my technique as long as I can hold a pencil. One is never too old to learn new tricks! I want to sell my work overseas and take full advantage of my website and blog. I have yet to travel overseas and hope to get the opportunity one day. I enjoy teaching adults and participating in demonstrating pencil drawing at Art exhibitions when invited.

It can be quite lonely living down here near the bottom of planet Earth.
