EL ESPLENDOR DEL ROMÁNICO, en la FUNDACIÓN MAPFRE/RECOLETOS de MADRID

aside his usual line of work focused on the art of the late nineteenth and early twentieth FOUNDATION MAPFRE Madrid brings real gems (I do not exaggerate much) of the National Museum of Catalan Art.

I was able to see the splendor of ROMANESQUE the same day it opened (it has no special merit, nor special intention: I ate very closely, and dismissed the guests, I went to the Paseo de Recoletos). With a reasonable number of visitors, I could see the exhibition with confidence and detail. I really liked. And I liked everything I saw.
I've always been interested in Roman art, and enjoyed the novelty is that in this journey of good examples of medieval art, mainly Catalan. First the fresh; after working in stone (the voussoirs RIPOLL seemed sensational), then painting on canvas in front of the altar and canopies, all spectacular, then the statue of Christ crucified or majesty (the MAJESTY BATLLÓ is shocking), and finally plate, carefully prepared and rich. Real treasures, and I said at the start.

When you end the trip reaffirmed in the wealth of the medieval, the strength of a religion that inspires a symbolic art, beautiful, yet tremendously educational. And you just see an art that aims to teach, enrich and embellish the architecture of the temple-sacred space-and themselves liturgical functions. An anti-classical art and unnatural, that does not pursue the detail is not lost in the superfluous. A vigorous art, schematic, expressive, which seeks to convey a very specific message. An art that seeks clarity of exposition, which meets the eye theme and that man is not wasted on superfluous or dismissal. An art with its own rules, you need to know to not nonsensical to comment: some still dare to say that the Middle Ages was a dark time!

addition, the installation is successful: I'm not usually comfortable in the halls of this venue, I think, the rooms and set-based ill-advised. But this time the assembly is achieved, with its black walls and lighting with the necessary intensity and targeted. The circular room where you have placed the BATLLÓ MAJESTY is to be there a while.

Anyway, THE SPLENDOR OF ROMANESQUE seemed to be a very good exposure, the kind that not to be missed: it is open until May 15. It also leaves in lust for also visit the National Museum of Catalan Art : do not know, and I have to find the time ...

LAS OVEJAS DE GLENNKILL, de LEONIE SWANN

Some time ago I read in LILLU blog an entry about Glennkill SHEEP. He had done a lot of grace and, although she suggested in a comment the possibility that it was not so bad, I thought it might be worth risking, and read something really funny. Unfortunately, there has seemed to me, as it has done is tear a smile. SWANN LEONIE

tells how a flock of sheep investigating the mysterious death of their pastor. The approach is original, evocative, but the development of the action is slow and repetitive, and the structure of the novel is confusing at times. It is true that the modus operandi of the sheep is witty, really sheep: its lack of fixity, his little world, their lack of humamos, the importance of smell, his constant preoccupation with food ... but little else: the story progresses slowly, deslabazada, and the end is very regular. SHEEP
Glennkill
has brought me to the head several times to the great humorist Gary Larson, who has very great ability to make smart animals and humans simpletons. With the difference that gets a bullet LARSON what SWANN stretched to 376 pages. Worth it as an example: it is not the best of Larson and are cows instead of sheep, but has a lot to do with the idea behind Glennkill SHEEP.

EL PATIO DE LA NUEVA SEDE DEL AYUNTAMIENTO DE MADRID

I was told months ago that opened the public the backyard of the new town hall of Madrid, the Palacio de Comunicaciones far from Plaza de Cibeles, the great Post Office Building ANTONIO Palacios and Joaquín OTAMENDI lifetime (some will remember that we've talked ANTONIO PALACIOS to select you ). I recently returned to go through there, camera in hand, and I just thought a brief comment, with two previous clarifications: first, I've always thought that the Plaza de la Villa is one of the most successful of Madrid, and old town hall in their GÓMEZ DE MORA JUAN DE VILLANUEVA added, without being the not-going-over, is a building that is quite good. On the other, I know that the cover of which I speak today as part of a global intervention in the building, and certainly to understand the whole study should be finished building and running as Town Hall. That said, I add that the intervention has left me quite cold.

DECK is undoubtedly a obrón , and appearance of the patio is not bad, a bit soulless, perhaps, but attractive, this does not deny anyone (Palacios and have OTAMENDI much of merit in this from the colorful, course). No one would deny either, I imagine, the interest of the reflections of the deck and the sky-in the interior windows, or transparencies that allow you to see the tower / dome of the building against the blue sky of Madrid.

But I think a cover for a patio and only irregular is regular, so deformed, rare-space at the bottom, covered with a residual-rare. If the patio cover was a necessity if the covered entity to have a reason to support it had, it still could understand the operation, that the court should become the main entrance area of \u200b\u200bthe building or its main hall, lobby or secondary distribution and customer service, or a particular audience, or ... something, anything, goes. But so much for a patio cover that does not seem to have any singular use is difficult to explain. The City Council and the architect (FRANCISCO RODRIGUEZ Partearroyo) say that this space is the first covered market of Madrid, and intended use for receptions and concerts. Perhaps too much for so little. And, though it is a difficult issue to assess, which could result in hundreds of comments (what is cheating? Can you copy?) And I do not seem very serious, if it is a top deck and know, a rehash of the NORMAN FOSTER the BRITISH MUSEUM (same Partearroyo supports inspiration), you no longer want to even count. Will recognize that the similarities are too obvious:

I admit that my comment is precipitate, that will have to see how to use the covered patio area that the municipality is working 100%. But for now I have found the right project ... but vulgar by excessive and already known.
