D. Allan Posted June 6, 2007 Author Share Posted June 6, 2007 These artifacts might easily be mistaken for utensils used and owned by Chewbacky of Star-Wars fame except that they were manufactured here on Earth in the early 20th century, probably by Man Ray or Marcel Duchamp.

D. Allan Posted June 6, 2007 Author Share Posted June 6, 2007 Quote: From the New York Times: After a Furry Teacup What Then?By GRACE GLUECK Published: June 28, 1996 After a fur-lined teacup, what do you do for an encore? That was a problem for the German-born artist Meret Oppenheim (1913-1985), who created this famous Surrealist icon in 1936, when she was barely 23. Such whirlwind success -- the Museum of Modern Art almost immediately snapped up and exhibited the teacup -- proved difficult to handle. The sudden burst of fame, it seems, contributed to a major depression that descended on Oppenheim the next year and stayed with her for nearly two decades. Quote dAb O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!

Administrators Gail Posted June 13, 2007 Administrators Share Posted June 13, 2007 The example above is one of my favourites, as is Guernica. Here's one: Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.

D. Allan Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 A note of explantion: I just want to make sure that all realize that I am sincere in my appreciation of the object-trouve above, which I took the liberty of entitling The Ubiquity of Exiguity....; and I was not trying to make fun of it or the artist. It is a beautiful piece of art! :) Quote dAb O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
