Je me demande ce qui s'est passé ici ! C'est de l'art moderne ?

Pour ceux qui n'auraient pas encore su la disparition du blogueur A. à Téhéran, faites un tour sur le superbe site Oeiras Daily Photo.
What actually happened is that a frustrated artist who is an electrician pulled all of his wires and put them together to create a visual protest of the conditions under which he is forced to work.
ReplyDeleteHe's hoping someone in the community will recognize his genius and become his benefactor so that he devote his full time and attention to creating other such magnificent pieces.
Unfortunately, he forgot to unplug one of the wires and all his dreams shorted out.
So did he!
Love the photo, Ciel!
Interesting 'water fountain'? It looks like it made with electrical cables. Very colorful.
ReplyDeleteThis is a strong contrast, old and new. It looks refreshing!
ReplyDeleteNot much to add to Jacob's brilliant interpretation. Clearly a case of humid connectivity among the globalized masses. Or something.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember when, but this 'fountain' was, more aptly, in front of the Palais de Tokyo.
ReplyDeletej'aime bien , ce mélange ancien avec moderne, c'est original comme création.
ReplyDeleteLa disparition m'interpelle : le site a disparu. Parfois il arrive que l'on disparaisse puis réapparaisse sur un autre site / les aléas de la vie. En trois ans j'en ai vu déjà ; certaines disparitions sont plus inquiétantes que d'autres, comme celle ci dans un contexte politique particuliers et comme des blogs qui tout d'un coup cesse de publier même en France lorsque tu ne connais pas plus que cela l'auteur.
ReplyDeleteeffectivement c'est assez curieux ce mélange ... Je ne trouve pas que ça apporte grand chose, (bien au contraire) mais en tout cas, ça ne laisse pas indifférent.
ReplyDeleteC'est peut etre ça l'art, mais dans un lieu comme versailles ... hummm
Oh goodness. And against that magnificent building and gardens too! A little too much contrast for my taste.
ReplyDeleteInteresting fountain but will it stand the test of time?
ReplyDeleteSpooky and funny! I don't know in fact but I share the same feeling that Jacob so well described !
ReplyDeleteGreat work dear Ciel!
Be always happy!

Very funny fountain. What a clever idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the news on the blogger in Iran.

des scoubidous géants dans la fontaine ancienne j'aime assez.
ReplyDeleteje suis allée sur le site et bien sûr le bloggeur en question est en prison. Il faut toujours rester vigilants pour sauvegarder notre liberté.
I like this - modern and old style:)
ReplyDeleteUnique! And colourful.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the heads up on CDP blogger Amir Sadegh.
I looked at the large size picture - it's a sculptural fountain, for sure, but it's a jarring contrast. We get used to that, like, for example, the Centre Pompidou in the middle of the Marais.
ReplyDeleteI'm going with Jacob's idea. That's amazing. Only in France would you have something that "weird" at Versailles!!ha
ReplyDeleteWe all share your concern about our friend in Tehran, so very frightening. Thanks for noting it on your blog.
Rigolo....Un peu d'humour dans tout ce classicisme ne fait pas de mal.
ReplyDeleteLe blog est fermé, j'espère que cela n'a rien à voir avec une quelconque censure, face à l'afflux des visisteurs étrangers.
I think someone was playing a joke, or else the groundskeeper is smoking some weird stuff:)
ReplyDeleteOoh, a colored spaghetti fountain!
ReplyDeleteThis looks out of place. It should be in Paris in front of that modern center that looks like a sewage plant, I forget the name!
