En la “Utopía” de Thomas More, publicada en 1516, el oro y las piedras preciosas no tienen valor. De hecho, han sido lastradas por la sangre, la esclavitud y la locura humana….
El arte de la manipulación: El concepto corporativo del patrocinio artístico fue perfectamente descrito por Hans Haacke en “Libre-Echange“, el libro de Pierre Bourdieu y Hans Haacke, publicado por Editions du Seuil / les press du Réel en 1994, que cito de un extracto aquí:

Winter Whimsical Owl Art
Ideas and Advice for How To Live a Joyful and Empowered Life.
This is another art trading card painting I did back in 2006 with acrylics and colored pencil.
I love owls. My daughter got off work one night and there was a big light-colored one standing on a car two cars away looking at her. Her co-worker took a picture and she sent it to me – she was so excited. I would have been too! I still haven’t seen one in real life (possibly at a zoo a long time ago but I don’t remember). Hoping I’ll get a chance meeting with one someday. 🙂

Metafore
It is one of the richest museums in Greece, even so, dispossessed of the Vergina hoard, now on the UNESCO-listed site in Veria.
Tesalonic, 2016, 2017, 2018
Una dintre destinațiile inconturnabile ale verilor mele e Tesalonic.

Printre altele, are muzee îndeajuns de complexe de care mi-e dor tot timpul, cum ar fi cel de arheologie.

Mă opresc mult la exponatele pe care le știu din copilărie, din albume.

Timpul aici se scurge altfel.

Mă redescopar în imagini și obiecte pe care le credeam uitate.

Este unul dintre cele mai bogate muzee din Grecia, chiar și așa, deposedat de tezaurul de la Vergina, aflat acum la situl clasat UNESCO din Veria.

Au rămas îndeajuns de multe obiecte de aici, din nordul Greciei,

descoperite în siturile din Macedonia și Tracia,

mărturii ale calității stilului de viață de pe vremea lui Filip II și a fiului său Alexandru Macedon.

Văd obiecte de pe versantul vestic al muntelui Olimp, din Chalkidiki, unde se află o necropolă din sec.9 (î.Hr.).

Situl Agia Paraskevi de lângă Tesalonic numără 450…

Monuments at Stonehenge and Avebury
Book 1,Chapter 2, Pre 55 BC – The Early Britons – Continued
Besides what has been advanced, they could not have been absolute savages, who reared those gigantic and wondrous monuments, which the hand of Time during eighteen centuries has not been able to destroy. Mere brute strength could not have lifted up rough pillars at Stonehenge and Avebury, or the various “cromlechs” still existing in various parts of the land. Some acquaintance with mechanical laws and forces must have been possessed by those who erected the piles, whenever they were reared, and for whatever purposes they were used. Their design and use have been matters of conjecture for a period of at least seven hundred years. Henry of Huntingdon, who wrote in the early part of the twelfth century, gave a list of British wonders, among which Stonehenge occupies the second place. He says, “At Stanhenges, stones of…
