About the whats that go into the creation of a piece of work. About the whys. About the hows. About the feelings and the thinkings that come with the contact with a particular work. I am thankful to all the craftsmen and creative indivduals who have added value to my understanding and growth as a practitioner.mikequahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12519726175626749509noreply@blogger.comBlogger44125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703083274700145081.post-49013730247615337712014-11-24T11:48:00.004+08:002014-11-24T12:18:43.006+08:00Visual Paradox Master: Rene MagritteConsider the nature of a paradox. It deals with self-contradiction and inconsistency.
<br />
<br />
Its concerns are conflict, puzzle and mystery. Enigma: ambiguous; baffling; perplexing; these become an exciting dimension for re-interpretation and imaginative staging.
<br />
<br />
No wonder than that Rene Magritte has such an impact on the contemporary visual thinkers.
<br />
<br />
The changing world of finance, human relationships, international communication and understanding of ethical values are shifting along a broad continuum. Anomalies and incongruities are constants.
<br />
<br />
The new environs provide a fertile investigation mine for the curious explorers in creativity.
<br />
<br />
More from Rene Magritte, the master of paradoxical staging.

<br />
<br />
The influence that learners have on each is other intriguing.
<br />
<br />
This video examines one facet on the specific influence of Escher's work on Penrose the mathematician and his father.
<br />
<br />
It shows how they responded.
<br />
<br />
Then it traces Escher's response to the Penroses's resultant works.

<br />
In Sagrada Familia, Antoni Gaudi uses the MAGIC SQUARE above.<br />
<br />
WHY DID ANTONI USE THE MAGIC SQUARE IN THIS PARTICULAR PLACE?<br />
<br />
Perhaps to express his faith in the traditional teaching that nothing happens by accident; that the Creator of all that exists has order embedded at the core of its existence.<br />
<br />
The Magic Square as a symbol then teaches such a subtle lesson!<br />
<br />
The close-up shows the horizontal, vertical and diagonal numbers adding up to make 33.<br />
<br />
The numbers at the end of the corners of the square : 1 + 4 +15 + 13 add up to make 33.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The sum of the two numbers between the corners: 14 + 14 + 2 + 3; </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
11 + 8 + 9 + 5...each set adds up to 33.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The sum of the four numbers in the centre 7 + 6 + 10 + 10 makes 33.</div>
<br />
Thirty-three is the age when the Christ died.<br />
<br />
The sculpture depicts Judas kissing the Christ to help the capturers identify him to stand trial for sedition.<br />
<br />
This is another symbol used to underscore the paradoxes in the story of salvation: good is bad, bad is good; the weak is strong, the strong weak; loose your life to save it...save it and you loose it.<br />
<br />

<br />
In Sagrada Familia, sculptures have been collectively organised to transport whoever is viewing into realms of wonder.<br />
<br />
That this impact is the familiar response of each in the presence of this church is itself a wonder.<br />
<br />
Have a look at some of these sculptures.<br />

<br />
<br />
His masterpiece is the church of Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Spain.<br />
<br />
An interesting thread is this: the crypt was built in 1884-89; the Nativity facade was completed in 1905; the four fantastic bell towers were completed in 1925-30; the transept elevation of the Passion started in 1960, continues as with the other sections of the church well into the early 21st century<br />
<br />
The following pictures (from sources too diverse and obscure to acknowledge appreciation and thanks individually) give an overview of the range and technical complexities of the built works.<br />
<br />
Take a closer look at the spectacular exterior of the Sagrada Familia<br />

<br />
I admire Antoni Gaudi, born 1852, in Reus, Catalonia.
Antoni Gaudi is Spanish.<br />
<br />
He is both architect and designer.
Inspiration for his works come from marine life, seascape and the organic growth patterns of nature.
His construction methods were highly innovative.<br />
<br />
He integrates decorative elements of nautilus shells and fruits with the structure of trees and roots into his archtectural designs.
His buildings look like sculptures of stone forest. Parts of his interiors look like crystal caves with myraid openings of multicoloured glass.<br />
<br />
Antoni Gaudi organised his illustration of bible-stories with dramatic message of virtues and heroic sacrifices in surprising situated-niches of the Cathedral.<br />
<br />
Antoni Gaudi incorporated wrought iron, excellent carpentry in fine furniture, stained glass, sculptures in wood, stones and metals, mosaics and ceramics into the construction of his buildings. He worked with some of the best artisans of his time.<br />
<br />
Antoni Gaudi's masterpiece is the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Spain.
Began in 1883, it is still continuing in 2014.<br />

I came across his works in the <span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-themecolor: text1;">"Saturday
Evening Post" </span>in the early fifties.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I was eleven. He was one special reason to visit my cousin Kok Lum (also
eleven). Kok Lum had a good collection of SEPs from his planter's uncle. Norman
Rockwell was a regular feature in this interesting magazine. I love looking at
his paintings. Still do.<o:p></o:p><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
His people are lovable. Young or old. Male or female. Rich
or poor. Black or white or brown. Norman Rockwell places his people in
situations that are engaging/surprising/amusing/ charming/funny/captivating. Always a tug at the heart-string. Always a fresh perspective.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
His observation of the human character is keen. His
selection of personality types, dressing, props and situations are masterful
story-telling. I come away from his works with a special feeling. An awakened
awareness of innocence and decency. An appreciation of beauty and sweetness and
charm. That is remarkable. This is in stark contrast to works that are dark/rude/cynical/angry/bitter/violent<br />
/pornographic. <o:p></o:p><br />

Is he an artist to me? <br />
<br />
Yes. A definite yes. He stimulates my feelings. My thoughts take different<br />
directions. My outlook on relationships considers more divergence. I have<br />
a renewed sense of persuing<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>my own
development in the things that interest me.<o:p></o:p><br />

Calvin and Hobbes is America’s hottest comic strip. After less than three years in syndication, it appears in more than 600 newspapers. The three Calvin and Hobbes collections are permanent fixtures on The New York Times bestseller list. And its creator, Bill Watterson, has already won the coveted National Cartoonist Society Cartoonist of the Year award.</div>

<b><span style="font-family: Times;">WATTERSON</span></b><span style="font-family: Times;">: But in a way, I’ve ended up with the old tried and true. It’s a strip about a family - a familiar, universal setting that’s easy to identify with. I’m trying to put a unique twist on it, but it’s well-covered ground. The trend nowadays in comics seems to be to zero in on a narrow, specific audience, like divorced parents, baby boomers, and so on. I guess the idea is to attract a devoted special interest group to the comic page who will scream if the strip is ever dropped. That way, the strip stands a better chance of survival than a strip that aims wide but doesn’t hit deep. Generally, I don’t like these trend-of the-month strips because they’re usually the product of some market analysis rather than the product of any honest artistic sensibility on the part of the cartoonist. Still, with any strip, it’s not the subject that’s important, it’s what you do with it. A family strip can be hackneyed drivel just as easily as any other kind of strip.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dip into his thoughts:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">You will find your own ethical dilemmas in all parts
of your lives, both personal and professional. We all have different desires
and needs, but if we don't discover what we want from ourselves and what we
stand for, we will live passively and unfulfilled. Sooner or later, we are all
asked to compromise ourselves and the things we care about. We define ourselves
by our actions. With each decision, we tell ourselves and the world who we are.
Think about what you want out of this life, and recognize that there are many
kinds of success.
Many of you will be going on to law school, business school,
medical school, or other graduate work, and you can expect the kind of starting
salary that, with luck, will allow you to pay off your own tuition debts within
your own lifetime.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">But having an enviable career is one thing, and being
a happy person is another.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Creating a life that reflects your values and
satisfies your soul is a rare achievement. In a culture that relentlessly
promotes avarice and excess as the good life, a person happy doing his own work
is usually considered an eccentric, if not a subversive. Ambition is only
understood if it's to rise to the top of some imaginary ladder of success.
Someone who takes an undemanding job because it affords him the time to pursue
other interests and activities is considered a flake. A person who abandons a
career in order to stay home and raise children is considered not to be living
up to his potential-as if a job title and salary are the sole measure of human
worth.
You'll be told in a hundred ways, some subtle and some not, to keep
climbing, and never be satisfied with where you are, who you are, and what
you're doing. There are a million ways to sell yourself out, and I guarantee
you'll hear about them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><div style="text-align: left;">
To invent your own life's meaning is not easy, but
it's still allowed, and I think you'll be happier for the trouble.

Pray. LoveStill at the subject of creativity, my thoughts are on the people who actually plunge head-on into creative endervours. Artists. Dancers. Musicians. Writers. Designers....<br />
How do they deal with early oppositions from caring significant ones; then times of struggles, doubts and terrors; then competitions and rejections; eventual acceptance and rising expections....?

It excited me to hear a talk by Professor </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Murray Gell-Mann. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here is how an extract describes him:</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He is one of the largest living legends in physics. He's also been described as The Man With Five Brains, and it's no puzzle why: He was admitted to Yale at 15, got his PhD from MIT at 21, and is an international advisor on the environment. He speaks 13 languages fluently (at last count), and has expertise in such far-ranging fields as natural history, historical linguistics, archaeology, bird-watching, depth psychology, and the theory of complex adaptive systems.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Creative thinking is the source of all created works. While not understanding the specifics of many of his references, I appreciate his sharing the varied stages of how ideas come to mind and how they evolve and get organised into a form that is accepted by the maker as "This is it!"</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The video is almost an hour long with interesting responses from the appreciative audience. I stayed. I benefitted!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Enjoy!</span></span><br />

Like music notes creating wind or water sounds or sounds of a person breathing or walking up flights of steps, the music composer expresses his imaginative story. Klee, the art composer, tells stories of imaginative worlds with improvisations using art elements. His stories of sensations and fancies with striking combinations of textures and colours; lines and shapes; forms with space or volume, evoke unexperienced feelings and ideas. This is my fascination with the works of Paul Klee. I feel new feelings. See new things. I am encouraged with his boldness in embracing the unpredictables.<br />

These videos shared by admirers are enrichments for me in enjoying Paul Klee anew. Share my joy.<br />

Through feelings, the music takes us into the sensory aspects of his colours and lines. Then the dimension of his mind in developing the compositional arrangements of his colours and lines become significant.<br />

Paul Klee (18 December 1879 29 June 1940) was a Swiss painter of German nationality. His highly individual style was influenced by movements in art that included expressionism, cubism, and surrealism. He was, as well, a student of orientalism. Klee was a natural draftsman who experimented with and eventually mastered color theory, and wrote extensively about it. His works reflect his dry humor and his sometimes child-like perspective, his personal moods and beliefs, and his musicality. He and his friend, the Russian painter Wassily Kandinsky, both taught at the German Bauhaus school of art and architecture.<br />

Once in a blue moon, the excitement of the first kiss carries on into old age. But hardly has anyone been moon-struck over this carry-on excitement as an aspiration. The moon, however, has always a mysterious pull over lovers. Billions and billions have gazed at the same moon since it first came into view and had their imagination stirred with amazing responses. And here is one. The moon. A camera. An artist.<br />

His townscapes, of glitzy high rises or back-street sardine-packed scruffiness, have a charm of individuality. He can stitch together shapes of bridges and boats; sky, water and sand; fences, stately ornaments, quaint vehicles and graffitti-covered walls with eccentric people in familiar postures; pigeons and cats and cute everyday stuff with a touch of humour. A remarkable man, with an eye for the common sights in an ordinary place, he sees the new meaning in them and paints them in striking surprises. Thus his body of works gives joy and refreshment to many who share his attitude towards creativity.<br />
How does Dong Kingman work?
Where does he get his content from?
What are his subject preferences?
How does he approach his paintings?<br />
With curious questions like these to awaken the appreciation, enjoy the following as I have:<br />

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">The United States Information Service (USIS)
was in Beach Street Penang in the fifties. It was a place for many youngsters
like me who liked to look at interesting printed stuff. It ran weekly films.
Among one of these was a documentary on Dong Kingman, the watercolourist. I
just loved the look of his simple drawings and colours. I was about twelve
years old. Later on Dong Kingman came in person to draw in situ. Among the crowds,
I caught a glimpse of him in Magazine Road doing quick sketches. I was too young
to grasp the significance of this occasion.<br />
Now I have the opportunity to examine closely the works of the man.<br />
What a lively man! Such an eye for the character of place and a situation. Such
masterly placement of his shapes. Such playful application of his colours. He
can tease out<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the glow and caress into
being the many nuences of the surface of skin and bark and stones. His clouds
whisper. The leaves he brushes rustle. His water dances and excites. All these expressed
with swift deft strokes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">Here enjoy the works of an amazing artist.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Dong Kingman was born Dong Moy Shu in </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oakland,_California"><span style="color: #0645ad; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">Oakland, California</span></a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">,
the son of Chinese<br />
immigrants from </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong"><span style="color: #0645ad; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">Hong Kong</span></a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">.
At the age of five, he travelled with his family back to Hong Kong where his
father established a dry goods business. He began his formal education at the
Bok Jai School, where he was given a school name in accordance with Chinese
customs. Hearing that he aspired to be an artist, his instructor gave him the
name "King Man" (lit. "scenery" and "composition"
in </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yue_Chinese"><span style="color: #0645ad; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">Cantonese</span></a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">).
He would later combine the two names into Kingman, placing his family name
first in accordance with Chinese naming conventions, creating the name Dong
Kingman.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">Kingman continued
his education at the Chan Sun Wen School, where he excelled at calligraphy and
watercolor painting. He studied under Szeto Wai, the Paris-trained head of the
Lingnan Academy. It was under Szeto's instruction that Kingman was first
exposed to Northern European trends. Kingman would later state that Szeto was

<br />
Akira Kurosawa gets his from his own dreams. Intriguing!<br />
<br />
For me, the process of getting the first idea to the last stage of completing a finished work, is always enthralling.<br />
<br />
Here is one example of that fantastic journey from start to finish.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">(It starts with an advert which you should ignore before the first part comes on).</span><br />
<br />
Dreams (1990 film)<br />
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia<br />
Dreams is a 1990 magical realism film based on actual dreams of the film's director, Akira Kurosawa at different stages of his life. The film is more imagery than dialogue.
The film was screened out of competition at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival.[1]<br />
<br />
From Akiro Kurosawa's DREAMS series:<br />
The Peach Orchard
Hina Matsuri, the Doll Festival, traditionally takes place in spring when the peach blossoms are in full bloom. The dolls that go on display at this time, they say, are representative of the peach trees and their pink blossoms. One boy's family, however, has chopped down their peach orchard, so the boy feels a sense of loss during this year's festival. After being scolded by his older sister the boy spots a small girl running out the front door. He follows her to the now-treeless orchard, where the dolls from his sister's collection have come to life and are standing before him on the slopes of the orchard. The living dolls, revealing themselves to be the spirits of the peach trees, berate the boy about chopping down the precious trees. But after realizing how much he loved the blossoms, they agree to give him one last glance at the peach trees by way of a slow and beautiful dance to Etenraku. After they disappear the boy finds the small girl walking among the treeless orchard before seeing a single peach tree sprouting in her place.<br />

<br />
They developed a special sound with their voice to accompany the original music they composed.<br />
<br />
Bee Gees<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia </span><br />
<br />
The Bee Gees is a musical group that was originally made up of three brothers: Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. The trio were successful for most of their 40-plus years of recording music, but they had two distinct periods of exceptional success: as a pop act in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and as a foremost act of the disco music era in the late 1970s. The group sang three-part tight harmonies that were instantly recognisable; Robin's clear vibrato lead was a hallmark of their earlier hits, while Barry's R&B falsetto became their signature sound during the late 1970s and 1980s. The brothers co-wrote all of their own hits, as well as writing and producing several major hits for other artists.<br />
<br />
Here are the songs they sang from my youth which I still love in the twenty-first century:<br />
