Louvre Pyramid - Criticisms tended to fall into four areas: (1) the modernist style of the edifice being inconsistent with the classic French Renaissance style and history of the Louvre; (2) the pyramid being an unsuitable symbol of death from ancient Egypt; (3) the project being an immodest, pretentious, megalomaniacal folly imposed by then-President François Mitterrand; and (4) Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei being insufficiently French to be entrusted with the task of updating the treasur

V: "How can we take such large profits for selling trash, Mr Obach? And why is it that the only people who can afford to come in here are only those who have money. And why is that the poor people who can really appreciate good art haven't even a farthing to buy a print for their walls? Mr O: What is this, socialism?"
Irving Stone /fiction/ Goupil - "Vincent laughed as he thought of the women who had made the last purchase the evening before. "I can't fancy this picture, Harry, can you? The dog looks a rare bit like the one that bit me in Brighton last summer." Vincent was conscious of the fact that he was selling very poor stuff. Most of the people who came in knew absolutely nothing about what they were buying. They paid high prices for a cheap commodity. All he had to do was make the print room successful.
In May 1873, Vincent van Gogh went to LONDON to work at the city's branch of the international art dealers GOUPIL & CIE. Goupil had no showroom in London, only a warehouse for distributing prints. It did not deal in original paintings and was therefore mainly regarded as a wholesaler of reproductions. Vincent occupied himself chiefly with administrative tasks. In the spring of 1875, however, Vincent was transferred to Goupil & Cie’s PARIS headquarters.

Society of Independent Artists - was formed in Paris on 29 July 1884. The association began with the organization of massive exhibitions in Paris, choosing the slogan "sans jury ni récompense" ("without jury nor reward"). Albert Dubois-Pillet, Odilon Redon, Georges Seurat and Paul Signac were among its founders. For the following three decades their annual exhibitions set the trends in art of the early 20th century, along with the Salon d'Automne. This is where artworks were often first displaye

Diemut Strebe, the German artist who concocted the plan to grow van Gogh's ear, told the Associated Press she likes to use science as a way to construct art.  How she decided that regrowing body parts would be the ideal way to express her creativity is unclear — but once she set her mind to it, she found a willing partner in Lieuwe van Gogh.  The great-great grandson of the famed painter's brother reportedly shares about one sixteenth of the same genes, and the 3D printer was used to mold his ce

"What the molt is for birds, the time when they change their plumage, is what adversity or misfortune is for us humans, a difficult time. You can stay in this difficult period, you can also come out of it like a new man."
Eagle Rebirth /can live up to 70 years/
Eagles choose a secure valley to start the molting process. They pluck out their wings, break off their beak by smashing it on a rock, and rub off their talons so that they are completely removed from their claws.

The Reception Of Vincent van Gogh Masterpiece On 28 September 1889, van Gogh sent The Starry Night with other nine paintings to Theo in Paris, although he initially wanted to keep it next to him. In January 1891 Theo passed away, just six months after Vincent, so his widow inherited van Gogh’s legacy and sold the painting nine years later to poet Julien Leclercq in Paris who finally sold it in 1901 (...)it was sold to American Paul Rosenberg from whom MoMA acquired this mysterious masterpiece in
