Visit to Goya Museum in Zaragoza, Spain I Sorolla surprise exhibition I Artist Inspiration
Happy New Year, everyone! :o) I wish you a lot of inspiration and more time for creating, appreciating beauty and discovering interesting new things in life!
2025 is a very important year for me both personally, and professionally: I turn 50 in July and intend to celebrate with a big exhibition in the fall, that I have been preparing for many months now :o)
That is why I need all the inspiration from my nomadic summer and today I am pleased to share with you my visit to an extraordinary place - Goya Museum in Zaragoza, Spain.
Francisco de Goya is one of the most famous Spanish artists. One of my favourite books on his life is by Lion Feuchtwanger and I strongly recommend it. It gives an exc...

Reina Sofia is the third museum in the Spanish capital, alongside Prado and Thyssen-Bornemisza, included in Paseo del Arte. My main goal, when visiting Reina Sofia, was to see in real life the most famous painting of Picasso - Guernica. It's really amazing to feel all kinds of emotions, when standing in front of this huge and impressive canvas. If you would like to learn more of "Guernica" and ...

It has an enormous collection of significant art and you can easily spend a whole day there. I felt really inspired and strongly recommend that you visit. I recommend visitin...

    Very interesting, and a good education too. I try to educate amateur photographers about good titles, explaining that 'the story' should be in the photograph and not in the title. Let the viewer decide what the story is. A similar thought to "A Woman in Blue" by Picasso. And I know what you mean about becoming a bit tired and then goofing around a bit in an art gallery. I do that as well! :)

      @acristastudio Месяц назад

      Thank you for your lovely comment! :) Yes, titles should not be too pretentious, but I also have a problem, when the artwork is named "Untitled" :). This always seems to me, like a bit of a lack of imagination :). There is a very good rather old movie, called "Untitled" btw. It's a must for the art lovers and not taking (modern) art too seriously. I personally often take the title for my painting from a poem, that I choose to accompany the artwork. Its just one way of doing it.

    • @paulrobertson1997

      @@acristastudio Yes, I don't like artwork's being titled "Untitled" too. When I was in the local photography club (2013-2018) and the club's newsletter editor, I wrote an article about coming up with better titles because some club members titles were rubbish. I didn't know about the old movie called "Untitled". Is it on RUclips? As for titles for my photos like you find some from poems - sometimes I use a short line from a song's lyrics. However, I try to keep my titles short: down to three words or less, but sometimes I end up with four words. And other times I come up with a new title that I like even before I take the photograph itself. When I was in the photography club, someone had a photo in one of the monthly competitions that she titled "No Where to Sit". It was a great photo, but a 'bad' title because of her incorrect English. Corrected, it would be "Nowhere to Sit". And that is only three words instead of four words too, which is much better. 🤗

    Why do so many 'RUclips' painting videos have to feature beautiful young women (when 'modern in style': women and still lives when 'antiquated')? Is eye candy the only thing worth painting? Are there no other legitimate subjects?
