Happy 82nd birthday to Jasper Johns!
From our website: In the 1950s Jasper Johns developed a distinctive painting style that would help lead American art away from the then-dominant movement of Abstract Expressionism. The exact correspondence of figure and ground in his work challenged the traditional distinction between an object and its depiction. At the same time, variations on each theme dissolved the “natural” link between the symbol and its meaning. Johns thus questioned the basic underpinnings of our representational system, and specifically the mechanisms of fine art.

“Learn to draw! If you don’t, you’re gonna live your life getting around that and trying to compensate for that.”
“Aprende a dibujar! Si no lo haces, vas a vivir tu vida alrededor de eso y tratando de compensarlo”

“I don’t give a damn if the client thinks it’s worth anything, or whether it IS worth anything — it’s worth it to me. It’s the way I wanna live my life. I wanna make beautiful things, even if nobody cares.”
“No me importa un carrizo si el cliente cree que vale algo, o SI realmente vale algo-vale para mí. Es la manera como vivo mi vida.Quiero hacer cosas hermosas, inclusive si a nadie le importa.”

The definitive photograph of Earth – unlike NASA’s iconic “Blue Marble,” a composite of many different images, this portrait by the European Space Agency consists of a single shot and is the highest-resolution image of our planet, at 121 megapixels, or 0.62 miles per pixel.

Did you know that in Spain cardigans are called ‘rebecas’ because it’s what Joan Fontaine wore in Alfred Hitchcock’s Rebecca (1940)?
Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961, dir. Blake Edwards) (via)
“The ragbag colors of her boy’s hair, tawny streaks, strands of albino-blonde and yellow, caught the light. It was a warm evening, nearly summer, and she wore a slim cool black dress, black sandals, a pearl choker. For all her chic thinness, she had an almost breakfast-cereal air of health, a soap and lemon cleanliness, a rough pink darkening the cheeks. Her mouth was large, her nose upturned. A pair of dark glasses blotted out her eyes. It was a face beyond childhood, yet this side of belonging to a woman. I thought her anywhere between sixteen and thirty.”
-Truman Capote, Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1958)

People used to stare at fires. Now they watch TV. We need to see moving images, especially after dinner.

Making a film is like a stagecoach ride in the old west. When you start, you are hoping for a pleasant trip. By the halfway point, you just hope to survive.
