Memories
Front Reichstag, with cooler than peeling radishes.
Yes ladies, we were in Berlin the first week of the year, a city snowfall and icy but full of activity and Germans. On New Year's Eve we were at the Brandenburg Gate, where we met with the sudden appearance of one and only David Hasselhoff genuine singing live to cheer the New Year's Eve. Apotheosis!!
David giving everything on stage!
We found a great trick by leading museums, huge and filled with antiques and masterpieces. In short, everything that can be found in any tourist guide, which was a discovery for me was the small museum dedicated to Kolwitz Kathe, a painter and sculptor whom I say I never heard.
have a history here, was contemporary of the Expressionists and the Dadaists, but was not involved in active of these movements, their art was closer to the lower social strata, people from Berlin to which she knew very well by the medical profession of her husband's poor.
Mother with dead son
One of his sons enlisted a volunteer in the First World War and died in the front, definitely marking the whole art of Kathe.
spent the afternoon in a museum, impressed with the strength and the crudeness of the images , the deep humanity of their esculturas.Pocas times have I seen a more accurate representation of pain expressions of the faces that go beyond the paper and look you in the eye. The vast majority of prints were lithographs and charcoal drawings that I hallucinated for its ease of implementation and perfection of drawing, this woman with just a few quick gestures became one of the best pictures I've seen in my life.
do not understand how so great an artist is a global icon of art, their figures and make it universal anti-military attitude, which was itself in the eyes watching us from the depths of their autorrretratos merciless. We left the museum overwhelmed by the sight of so much death, horror and suffering, but at the same time there was a flicker of hope in that mothers who grab their children to catch the monster atrocious war.
The call of death, one of his last drawings.
