Kanellopoulos takes lyricism to its most extreme form. His characters are dominated by an absolute, mysterious and romantic passion that so overcomes them that they seem to stand still and act as if hypnotized, simply following the course of their fate. A woman loves her officer husband but her desire for their mutual friend is irresistible. She will follow him, deserter though he is, into the unknown.
Love-Death: the axis is straight; it is a “royal”path that unites them. A ritual and a hymn to the sadness and splendour of feelings.
Frida Kahlo was born on July 6, 1907 in Coyoacán, Mexico. Exactly 47 years from now, before she died in the same city and her beloved Mexico, many things would happen; she’d meet Diego Rivera, become a world-renowned artist, and allow many of her fans to dress like her on Halloween.
French artist Félix Ziem is one of the most original landscape painters of the 19thcentury. The exhibition Wanderer on the Sea of Light presents Ziem as an artist who left his mark on 19th century painting and who is mostly known for his paintings of Istanbul and Venice, where the city and the sea are intertwined.
