Auguste Rodin: "Io non invento. Io riscopro"

"L'artista deve creare una scintilla prima di poter accendere il fuoco e prima che l'arte nasca; l'artista deve essere pronto ad essere consumato dal fuoco della propria creazione".

"Non vi è una perdita di tempo se si utilizza l'esperienza con saggezza".

"Ci sono forze sconosciute in natura; quando ci doniamo totalmente a lei, senza riserve, lei le presta a noi; lei ci mostra queste forme, che i nostri occhi che guardano non vedono, che la nostra intelligenza non capisce o nemmeno sospetta".

Abstract Fractal Art

Fu il matematico Benoît Mandelbrot [1924-2010] a creare il nome frattale nel 1975, quando, cercando un nome che potesse descrivere i suoi oggetti, sfogliando il vocabolario di latino del figlio, s'imbatté nell'aggettivo fractus, che, per la sua risonanza con parole come frattura e frazione, sembrò adattissimo allo scopo. Il suo lavoro fu pubblicato nel libro "Les objets fractals, forn, hasard et dimension", 1975 e più compiutamente nel libro "The fractal geometry of nature" in 1982.
Il successo fu travolgente. Oggi i frattali irrompono in ogni campo: suscitano l'interesse degli scienziati e la curiosità del grande pubblico, al punto che oggetti frattali si trovano comunemente in vendita.

Per disegnare si, non certo per dipingere".

Tony Chow ~ The Passion

Born in Taipei, Tawain in 1974, Tony Chow, Chinese painter, was obvious that he showed an appreciation for the masters. At the age of 11, Tony’s interest sprang a dedication to express his talents on canvas as well as an understanding to the motives behind such masterpieces. Tony came to the United Stated in 1995. He received a B.A. in Fine Art from the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California in 2000. From here, his interest and talents developed into a unique style all his own. Tony’s subjects include contemporary women and a careful depiction of the sculptures of masters. Perhaps there is an intentional portrayal of a unique relationship between these sculptures and the subject. It’s as if time has paused to glance at his bold strokes, with an intriguing blend of past and present. Through his tedious process of layers and textures filled with balance and color, his canvas come together with a beautiful multi-layered surface that depicts emotion from all who view his work.
