Triptych 1974-77
2008-02-07 11:04:00 A Francis Bacon triptych painting has sold for more than £26m, just £160,000 short of breaking the artist’s auction record. Entitled ‘Triptych 1974-77′ and painted in response to the suicide of Bacon’s lover George Dyer, it made a whopping £26,340,500 at Christie’s Auction House in London. It set a European record for a post-war British or Irish artist, but failed to beat the £26.4m paid for Bacon’s Study from Innocent X in New York last year. Francis was a Dublin-born figurative painter who died in 1992. Triptych 1974-77 was the last of Bacon’s paintings created in response to his gay lover’s death and shows sequential images of dark, ominous umbrellas and his lover struggling on a near-deserted beach. The amount of money some art goes for is criminal really - I mean imagine what good you could do in the world and help charities, rather than having a £26m picture hanging on your wall! Kinda selfish if you ask me. Now if you are in the...

Francis Bacon?s Triptych
2007-12-12 18:54:00 I’m standing, finally, before the Triptych. It is perhaps odd that such a hideous and anxious set of imagery should be an identifying feature and hallmark, for potentially my greatest joy. When I first saw the image, several weeks ago, on my computer screen, it was new, and it startled me. It ...

Symphonic poems [3]: Lyadovs Triptych
2007-10-12 11:42:00 The Russian composer Anatoly Konstantinovich Lyadov or Liadov (1855-1914) is nowadays almost exclusively remembered for the three short symphonic poems that he composed: Baba Yaga Op. 56, The Enchanted Lake Op. 62, Kikimora Op. 63. The theme of the first one is the same as in one of Mussorgsky's famous Pictures at an exhibition: Baba Yaga is a Russian fairy tale figure, an ugly hag that flies through the air and eats children. The enchanted lake deals with spirits eager to draw humans down to their death in the waters. Finally, Kikimora is based on a more relaxed theme, an ancient Russian domestic spirit that helps industrious house wifes. These three compositions are very much in the Romantic idiom, and well worth hearing. I include all three here in view of the brevity (3-6 minutes each). They are performed by the Slowak Philharmonic Orchestra under Stephen Gunzenhauser, taken from a Naxos CD (8550328) dedicated to Russian music, including short compositions by Ippolitov-Ivanov, ...
Triptych.
2007-10-03 14:13:00 Watching. Waiting. Falling. The roiling clouds billowing across the mental landscape. Omnious, petulant, strident cracks of protest. Tongues of light stabbing the horizon. A pack of horses galloping across the dusty plains. Hooves thundering, eddies of dust twirling in their wake. And the raging stops, the sudden silence deafening. Swirled patterns of sand etched into the barren landscape

2007-09-04 23:57:00 I. Ascent In the middle of my head, a perfect pinwheel, shining with a million colors, spins all night. In the middle of my head, a surging thesaurus bounces off the walls like ten thousand ping-pong balls. Sleepless, body twitching, white-knuckled, I cling to reality. I wish I were home. II. Darkness descending The sun has set But it does not bring Respite. Now comes the Dark night of the Soul. Fear and trembling, The sickness Unto death. Slugs ...

Triptych: Jeweled Bones, Central Panel: Bones in the Cellar
2007-05-11 14:00:00 Mother shooed us into the cellar. I turned my pockets inside out and showed her my discoveries. While we waited for the storm to pass, my mother told us stories: saints? bones preserved in crypts of faraway cathedrals; healers who told the future by throwing bones as if they were dice; and air-raid cellars in ...
Triptych: Jeweled Bones, Left Panel: Tree with No Soil Under It
2007-05-10 15:00:00 I fingered the treasures in my pocket as I strolled to the tree that hovered over the creek. It had no soil under it. Roots dangled through the air, then plunged straight and deep into rushing water. Fish swam between roots. With soil between roots the tree had sheltered a rabbit burrow, not swimming fish. ...
A triptych of strange 3 legged games
2007-03-04 23:29:00 There are few feelings in party gaming better than that heady, slightly sick, feeling one gets when tied to a partner you then have to rush around completing some crazy task or other. Below are three of the best three legged games ever. 3 Legged Frisbee GolfAlthough frisbee golf is considered a serious sport in some parts of the world 3 Legged Frisbee Golf is superior in almost every way. For teams of two players. Playing pairs have their legs tied together. Each team possess a frisbee. On a starting command all teams set off by throwing their frisbee, chasing after it as quickly as possible, picking it up and throwing it again. The first team to get their frisbee to the 'hole' ( a pre-determined object as far away as you like) wins. A great variety is Zombie 3 Legged Frisbee Golf - here after the starting throw a team can either carry on trying to finish quickly or aim their frisbee at a competing couple. If they score a hit then that couple falls over 'dead'. This adds a super...

Lens Day challenge: Triptych
2007-02-26 23:23:00 "the morality of art consists in the perfect use of an imperfect medium." - Oscar Wildeleft hand | hold my hand, i shall follow | right handA triptych is a work of art which is divided into three sections which are collected together. The central panel is the most important one, and this is flanked on either side by two lesser but related images. The whole is intended to be greater than the sum of the parts.This is my entry for this week's Lens Day Challenge.Just to share, i took these shots using the only available light in my room, one mid-afternoon.. the sunlight reflected by a mirror and my mobile phone. and with the help of my red curtains, navy blue ceiling and walls, these features seemed to unintentionally add to the effect.-----note: click the links below each image to see the original size.pub-7079080684070653 |
