EYES on the OCEANS: Artists United for Ocean Awareness

Posted on October 8, 2013 by plecocq

3rd Issue of the eMagazine of the Ocean Artists Society, published by his Executive Director Charlie Fassano.
As he put it: “The topic of Ocean Awareness is the best subject to end the 10th anniversary year of the Ocean Artists Society. This topic is our ultimate goal, to deliver a message of ocean awareness through our artwork. In this anniversary year, we have grown exponentially in how we deliver our messages. In showcasing our artwork, we have brought a better awareness to sharks, water, and coral reef conservation.
In this issue, we hope to show you what we believe you should know about Ocean Awareness. It is our individualistic “take home” message for you.”

As a member since the creation of the Society in 2003, it’s an honor to be featured here and associated with my friends Dr. Sylvia Earle, Valery taylor, Ernie Brooks, Amanda Cotton, Imran Ahmad, Michael Aw, Joe Quinn, Bill McDonald and other talented artists.

Homage to Patrice Chéreau

Posted on October 7, 2013 by plecocq

French opera and theatre director, filmmaker, actor, and producer Patrice Chéreau ( 2 November 1944 – 7 October 2013) passed away today.
The greatest of the past 50 years.
His influence on opera productions around the world was increasingly visible ever since that milestone production of the Ring (Bayreuth, 1976-1983), having substantial impact on concepts of other directors and designers like me who had chosen to follow the path of the so-called “Regietheater”, which may involve the transposition of the stage action into a different historical context by means of anachronistic or abstract costumes and set designs.

@ Numa Sadoul j’ai posté cette image quelques heures avant d’apprendre le décès de Patrice Chéreau. Le “brigadier de théâtre”, le bâton rayé, que j’ai beaucoup utilisé dans mes peintures (mais bleu et blanc) venait du Rheingold de 1976. Sans mon étude sur Chéreau, je n’aurais jamais été pris comme assistant etc… et n’aurais jamais fait une carrière de décorateur. De toutes façons, c’est un univers qui a profondément influencé mon travail pictural. Un Maître, quoi.
