CARL HAMMER GALLERY it's the arts
Link #140415 submitted by lagbnaft on Sep 5, 2008 07:43pm.   (+250XP)
http://www.hammergallery.com/Artists/Steber/Steber_Bill.htm
As the 21st century unfolds itself to a captive audience of both spectators and participants, the Carl Hammer Gallery stands ready in its third and newest location since its inaugural opening in 1979. For nearly thirty years, this gallery has been one of the primary international pioneers discovering, exhibiting, and contributing to the scholarship and connoisseurship of outsider art. This, in turn, has helped lead to the incorporation of outsider art into the contemporary art mainstream. The subsequent learning process contributed immensely to our uniqueness and to the gallery's growth and vision. Later, the addition of mainstream artists to the gallery's list of those it represented was aided, in large part, by the aesthetic earlier developed by the outsider art influence. Today the artists we are proud to go forward with into the 21st century are all decisively unique in their own personal visions and means of expression. They all share, however, in the process of successfully identifying that which makes us American, and, more importantly, that which makes us all Human. Their issues, as seen through their art, celebrate both the triumphs and tragedies of the human experience and range from the personal exploration of the ravages of breast cancer, to the exaltation of achieving freedom from externally imposed slavery.

It was 24-year-old Angel Pantoja Medina's wish to stand at his own funeral and when this man was found dead, his grieving family made that wish come true.  
 
After being embalmed, his corpse was propped up for his three day wake in his mother's living room dressed in his favorite Yankees cap and sunglasses.  
 
Man...that is creepy.

Pop star's murder sheds light on hidden world vices
Link #140408 submitted by LinusMines on Sep 5, 2008 12:32pm.   (+290XP)
http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/meast/09/05/singer.slain.tamim.suzann...
It's the Mideast version of a sordid soap opera. A Lebanese pop star is brutally murdered in her luxury Dubai apartment, her throat slashed. Arrested in her death: One of Egypt's most politically connected businessmen, accused of paying $2 million to have her killed.  
 
The slaying of Suzanne Tamim has gone beyond a lurid crime story to something more serious -- a glimpse into the close links between Egypt's government and powerful business tycoons long viewed as above the law.  
 
It is also exposing strains between societies like Egypt's, where wealth and political power increasingly go hand in hand, and Dubai, which recently launched a high-profile push against corruption.  
 
People in the Arab world have long followed with fascination and moral clucking the tales of businessmen and politicians cavorting with actresses, belly-dancers and singers -- a sort of Hollywood Babylon in the conservative Muslim Middle East.  
 
But even by those standards, the Tamim drama is a stunner...  
 
This week, Egyptian authorities arrested real estate mogul Hisham Talaat Moustafa, said to be Tamim's former lover.  
 
For many, the surprise wasn't Moustafa's alleged involvement -- but his arrest...

Scorched Jimi Hendrix guitar sells for £280,000 shopping
Link #140406 submitted by Henry on Sep 5, 2008 07:33am.   (+280XP)
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/celebritynews/2684648/Sc...
The rock legend torched his 1965 Fender Stratocaster at the end of a show at the Astoria in Finsbury Park, north London, in March 1967.  
The stunt sent roadies rushing to put out the flames and left Hendrix needing treatment for minor burns.  
But amid the hubbub, press officer Tony Garland cleared away the scorched Stratocaster and stored it in his parents garage in Hove, East Sussex, where it lay forgotten for nearly 40 years.

Amazing Gutter Art it's the arts
Link #140404 submitted by dorian on Sep 5, 2008 06:14am.   (+390XP)
http://abduzeedo.com/amazing-gutter-art
Most of us would never think that a gutter could be a piece of art. Here in Brazil, some people are using these parts of urban scenery to bring a little bit of color to the commomly grey sidewalks. They are Anderson Augusto and Leonardo Delafuente from 6emeia.  
 
The 6emeia project was created and developed by the artists Anderson Augusto, also known as SÃO, and Leonardo Delafuente, also known as Delafuente. The duo live in the Barra Funda neighborhood of São Paulo where they began the project with the purpose of changing and transforming daily life.  
 
The duo's objective is to modify the means within which we all live, proposing a new way to view things by reflecting upon themes generated through creative and unusual works. Such modifications are made by painting storm drains, light posts, manhole covers and any other object which makes up the urban scenario.

Max Planck Institute for the History of Science blinded by science
Link #140402 submitted by johnny2000 on Sep 5, 2008 05:23am.   (+100XP)
http://www.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de/en/research/index.html
MPIWG in Berlin is one of 80 research institutes in the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities administered by the Max Planck Society. It was established in 1994 as an international research center for the history of science in Germany.  
 
Researchers at the MPIWG investigate how new categories of thought, proof, and experience have emerged in the centuries-long interaction between the sciences and their ambient cultures. The specific research projects span several millenia, cultures north-south-east-west, and numerous scientific disciplines, ranging from the origins of counting systems in Mesopotamia to today’s postgenomics, from Renaissance natural history to the early days of quantum mechanics. Exemplary research questions include: How did the fundamental scientific concept (e.g. number, force, heredity, probability) and practices (e.g. experiment, proof, classification) develop in specific historical contexts? And in what ways did originally local knowledge, devised to solve specific problems, become universalized?
