Town at the end of the world



This miniature town was created by the artist Lionel Feininger - an artist involved in the Bauhaus movement.The small wooden sculpture is of the town of Weimar,within the town was a church,of Gothic architecture which features in Feiningers town and also in many of his prints and drawings.
I like this piece very much,there is something that is imploringly peculiar about it.

For the time conscious



Could'nt resist taking a picture of this great sign - nice to see that irony reigns in the rural Essex countryside.

Clothing label



I've been meaning to do something with this label for ages,it has followed me round from kitchen drawer to portfolio to studio wall and then back to the kitchen drawer.A found item that somehow begs to be used within collage perhaps,so now it continues its journey to my on-line clutter - I'm sure for reasons that will become apparent quite soon.

On Literature and Art

.....Art belongs to the people.Its roots should be deeply implanted in the very thick of the labouring masses.It should be understood and loved by these masses.It must stir to activity and the art instincts within them.
Should we serve exquisite sweet cake to a small minority while the worker and peasant masses are in need of black bread?.....
For art to get closer to the people and the people to art we must start by raising general education and cultural standards.
Lenin (On Literature and Art)
