Picasso and IKEA

12 10 2008

So, yesterday our day consisted of two major events.

#1: Yay, Inge took us to IKEA :)

We bought a green table and bedsheets and yay. The whole thought of coming to IKEA was gained from the day before when we had dinner at Inge’s place, it was great, thanks :) , and after we had Tiramisù which was amazingly good, but also way too much to have after dinner..

Anyway, uhm here are the new acquisitions:

To show off the beautiful colors!..and the table

And the little table :)

#2: We went to see the Picasso exhibition at the Museum Vittoriano or something quite similar.

Now I have never much cared for Picasso, but I am open to new experiences… somewhat..
The thing is though.. Abstract is not my thing, unless it has some esthetic value to me and then I really don’t want to know what it was meant to be. A will list a few things I derived from this exhibition:

- I really don’t like Picasso.
- I now realise why bestiality is so wrong.
- Picasso had a weird, weird view of women.
- …and of Minotaurs…

So yes, to comment on the women thing:

Woman in black and grey...

Woman in black and grey...Yes. Woman in black and grey.

Then the bestiality/Minotaur thing:
Picassos Minotaur...

Picasso's Minotaur...

And..
Just to emphasise..

Just to emphasise..

So yes… did I mention I think Picasso’s art is a little weird?

Anyway..yes well that was it..

Oh and a different note.. I just noticed how messed up the layout of this blog is, I don’t know why… I’ll look into it..

Good shopping notes, life moves, and choppy points on Picasso. Yes, there the Picasso potatoes may portray the best of ‘bestiality’ of (hu)man nature. The reality is, we are no different from our animal friends there in the wild. Philosophizing, semonizing, spiritualizing, culturalizing act is another shade or shadow of life. Everthing is a duel of ‘duality’ there. we are eternally in ‘hell’!
Thanks.
