Mid-Morning Art Thread [Kris]
Jack Vettriano The artist revisited this theme several times, reworking the subject and composition. Each one redirected my focus, interpretation, or feelings about the piece. This is the version I liked best. The tight framing, simple composition, dark lighting and limited colors evoked a very specific mood. This well-dressed, late middle-aged man has received a letter. As he reads it, his face darkens. His expression freezes. His brows knit. Because his suit blends into the black of the wall, we don’t notice that he’s leaning against the wall, at first. His need for support is a subtle hint at the heaviness of the message in the letter. The title already clues the viewer in on this, and his pose adds to this interpretation. While the man fills the right half of the work, the left is empty space, but not really. The space is filled with light (a dim light, but still) and color. The color is a deep wine criss-crossed by thin, black diagonals. The composition is predominantly vertical and horizontal, so these diagonals break this up. They also conflict with them, which, to me, may symbolize or hint at the emotions within in the man. The diagonals also give the wall a classy texture that emphasizes the man’s dress and style. The wine color also adds to this sense of sophistication and is my favorite part of the work. The wine is also a nice muted contrast to the dominant black. It is lighter, obviously, but not so light or so intense that it’s distracting. The red-purple creates a background and frame, allowing my eye to focus on the man’s face. Imagine if the background were all black. The details in the man’s face would blend together and get lost in the void. It’d be harder to read his expression. The wine is the perfect blend of light and dark to view the face. The whole scene is dimly lit by the gold light in the top left. This color is the most intense so it must be kept to a small area. It highlights the face and the color matches his skin tone, drawing my attention back to it, and to him. The way this work is cropped, I feel as though I am looking at this man through a window or door. He wants to be alone and picked this dark, quiet corner to read this letter. I like how the colors lighten as your eye ascends the painting but its “feel” gets heavier. The abstract blackness forms into a solid shape, and by the time the eye reaches the face, the expression is definite and concrete. This painting looks like a scene from a noir movie. There’s a story here and I want to know more.

A mob movie. He's getting bad news. The numbers aren't producing, or the bootlegging. I don't think it's catastrophic news - like a war being started by a rival family - because he doesn't look bad. He just looks severe but not pleased, so I suspect it's a problem with an overly-ambitious lieutenant or a disruption in their operations or profitability.

Late 80's, my brother had a pair of jeans that he'd wore during a battery acid incident one summer. Needless to say, the jeans were quite full of holes after several washes.
Some girl offered him $$$ on the spot for his pants. "I've got short in the car you can wear home."

Am I the only one who sees a problem with this? Wine comes in many colors. Reds. Whites. Pinks. Some even have a green tint. Yet the generic usage of "wine" as a color is a dark red, like a Merlot.
This is an egregious example of color privilege, and it deligitimizes and oppresses other wines. Wine isn't always red, people, and using the word "wine" to describe a single color is hugely problematic. Why do the color namers wrongly elevate one shade over the others when they called this "wine?"
This is indicative of the low-level oppression present in all aspects of our backwards, regressive, patriarchal language structures. Do better. We all need to do better to purge these biases from our everyday speech.

Four tenets of Socialist Realism: USSR, 1934
1. PROLETARIAN: art relevant to the workers and understandable to them.
2. TYPICAL: scenes of everyday life of the people.
3. REALISTIC: in the representational sense.
4. PARTISAN: supportive of the aims of the State and the Party.

A mob movie. He's getting bad news. The numbers aren't producing, or the bootlegging. I don't think it's catastrophic news - like a war being started by a rival family - because he doesn't look bad. He just looks severe but not pleased, so I suspect it's a problem with an overly-ambitious lieutenant or a disruption in their operations or profitability.

For one thing, biology in the real world is never as linear and cleanly sequential as he proposes. A => B => C =>D is an artificial construct. In reality cellular processes in aa pathologic disease state are hectic, chaotic and have multiple complex interactions. He takes a lot of individual bits of information and builds a chain made of speculation.
Dubious enough to make me wonder if it could be an op to discredit honest critique of public COVID policy.

Works like this, that have a vague title and open-ended interpretation, make for interesting conversations. We don't know what's in the letter, only that it's message has deep consequences and that the recipient is not reacting positively to it. Each viewer, then, reads this simple work according to their own experiences. Other versions of this were less subjective and, in my opinion, didn't work.

BTW, same here. I don't think you really need more than a good HS-level biology education to get the basic gist of most mainstream arguments for or against vaccination. One of the problems here - and why, I think the institution is shaken - is that they have hidden behind a gobbledygook of gnostic jargon to put forth what is a plainly totalitarian agenda, and when there are facts that get in the way of the prevailing 'theory', they use more gnostic jargon to explain the changing facts away. You don't need to be a scientist to see that, and to become increasingly skeptical.

Per the CDC, the annual flu vaccine is 36pct effective for all populations.
If you wouldn't call that ineffective, how about, largely ineffective?
And with increasing breakthrough COVID infections and the need for never-ending booster shots apparently, I would surmise that the COVID vaccines overall effectiveness is right around that of the GOP to advance conservative principles.

It sets up LEO/Border Patrol for reprisal assassinations. Once again causing anyone with a family to want to avoid those jobs and leaving psychos (or military like NY is threatening to do with hospitals) to fill the void.

They are selling w/d because they are switching their laundry room to upstairs and need an electric dryer. They say w/d both work fine.
Just interested in the dryer though.

Sure you are. That's like a 50-year old woman getting a face lift and proclaiming she's now a 40-year old woman.
She's just a 50-year old woman who's had plastic surgery.
Just like a "transgender woman" is just a man who's had plastic surgery. Doesn't change the biology, doesn't change the chromosomes, just changes the outer appearance.
