'The men are holding back, the men are cowards . . . we will take over'

On 5 October 1789 thousands of Parisian women tramped twelve miles to Versailles to bring the king back to the capital. This event radicalised the French Revolution.

Infomab10 is a pavilion designed and built in record time and within record budget. It consists of an off-the-shelf 28m3 glass-fiber reinforced polyester water tank that was intervened. 100 circular perforations allow speckles of natural light to flood the space during the day, whereas during the night they project the internal light towards the outside like a constellation. Two doors allow circulation through the space.

heres a challenge. need to do a good old fashion "blow up" (6-8' tall) of an image. in the analog age one used an opaque projector or a slide projector. now we are digital and it should be easiest to go digital no? i dont think so, not at these prices! so the efficient approach would be: go to the salvation army and buy a slide projector cheep (hopefully with out too much any distortion) and get digital slides made by these folks.

Making the job particularly complex, Ms. Belloli had more to worry about than just the image of “The Actor.” There was a painting on the back of the canvas, and that had to be considered too.

For years only a few scholars knew that this second painting existed, and they debated among themselves what it could be. Was it a discarded work by Picasso or, as John Richardson, Picasso’s biographer, hoped, the missing 1901 painting titled “Virgin With Golden Hair”? Hubert von Sonnenburg, a former conservator at the Met, hypothesized that perhaps it was a stage decoration by someone else because the canvas was thick, not the fine artist’s weave a painter would normally use.

“The canvas and composition do suggest a work intended as a decoration,” Mr. Tinterow said. “And the colors were particularly theatrical and vivid.”

“The Actor,” made in the winter of 1904-5, dates from a period in Picasso’s life when he was particularly poor, and he often employed whatever canvases or materials he could get his hands on even if they had already been used. He may have tried to obliterate the original composition by painting over it, but X-rays taken at the museum revealed a landscape with stones in a rippled body of water, rocky palisades and a large figure that might have been a female nude, although Mr. Tinterow said it was impossible to determine that with certainty.

The bold, swirling brushstrokes and palette were definitely not Picasso’s. Rather the colors — gold, mauve and cerulean blue — were in keeping with the work of Symbolist painters in Barcelona who appear in caricatures by Picasso. “It could have been done by Isidre Nonell, one of the Symbolist painters who had a studio in Paris and was known to have given Picasso materials in 1901,” Mr. Tinterow said.

Whoever the artist was, the X-rays showed that the landscape was painted horizontally, and that Picasso rotated the canvas for the vertical composition of “The Actor.”
