Note to myself
Today I want to stress out the importance to dream of the Future and to remember the Past, Just to be able expand, and survive the Present, which is soiled by Mobile operating devices, Catholic sex offenders and The current quality of most American and Belgian Television programs."

Documenta IIIII IIIII II (12)
So.. I finally could start reading in some books i've bought, but didn't yet manage to even open them. One of these books is Documenta 12. it's in fact a catalogue of a exhibition in Kassel. I didn't knew nothing about the exhibition at that time (2009) but it's in fact an interesting overview of art history up until today. And(!) I already found out that documenta 13 will be in 2012 (at least if we survive 2012).
now to talk about some things I read and found intreaging.
I like the works of Persian calligrapher Haddschi Maqsud At-Tabrizi (1537)
Honestly I could care much about the history of that time, but i like the idea how his calligraphic works had an 'edge' to it.
With that i mean he placed them diagonal, in different sizes, an unorthodox connections between words ( not that I could read them) and puts them in sort of schemes with all different sizes.
I'm not the biggest fan of overloaded decorative items ( and mostly not the oriental kind), but I like this because I never really noticed calligraphy as an interesting form of text. Now I know there are ways to make it look interesting, and challenging for possible further experiment..

Willy Kessels
Impressive Modernistic images from Willy Kessels ( Dendermonde 1898-1974)
These somewhat strange nudes, illustrate the modernistic idea of artist that wanted to introduce a new tradition in art's history
These are some of his other works, more abstract images, unfortunatly I couldn't find that much info on Willy Kessels' work.
