Marc Chagall | Parigi dalla mia finestra, 1913
C'è l'Opéra, il Louvre, L'Arc de Triomphe, Notre-Dame, la Tour Eiffel, il Panthéon, Place de la Concorde, Saint-GermainDes-Pres. Esplodono in arancioni, verdi, blu, viola, rossi.
Ci volteggiano sopra amanti, animali, madri, fiori, angeli.
Chagall non smise mai di ricordarla, di trasfigurarla nei suoi sogni, di farla orizzonte su cui si mimetizzava tutto il suo immaginario intimo e poetico.
C'è la città con i suoi luoghi simbolici, e c'è il pittore con la sua storia, i suoi miti. Parigi evoca e accoglie al tempo stesso, si fa materia onirica nello sguardo di Chagall.

Hafsa Idrees, 1992 | Finger painter
Hafsa Idrees is an Pakistani painter and writer born in Islamabad.
- "Art has always been close to my heart and even though I have not received a formal education in any particular genre, drawing/painting is an important part of my life. Since school, I have been experimenting with and enjoying different styles, media and techniques".
"I started with Arabic calligraphy at the age of 10 but I soon realized that I enjoyed painting and drawing too. My subjects then were things and people from my immediate surroundings but with time I started to explore different kinds of paints, pencils, materials and subjects".
Lettera d'Amore di Balzac alla contessa Ewelina Hańska
Mio amato angelo
,
"Sono quasi pazzo di te, per quanto uno possa essere pazzo: non riesco a mettere insieme due idee che non ti interponi tra di loro.
Non riesco più a pensare ad altro che a te.
Nonostante me stesso, la mia immaginazione mi porta da te.
Ti afferro, ti bacio, ti accarezzo, mille delle carezze più amorose si impossessano di me.
Quanto al mio cuore, ci sarai sempre - moltissimo.
Ferdinand Georg Waldmuller | Portrait of Madame Ewelina Hańska, 1835
