ART

Roman Lipski became one of my favourite painters since last week, when I have visited the Artfair Paris in Grand Palais. I wanted to make a separate post about him because from all the amazing art i ve seen there his works stands out for me most. I was trying to photograph all of his works exhibited at the fair when he cam eup to me and gave me the his catalog to make things easier )
I love the colors in his work. And the still subject speaks to me. I could just stare at it for moments and a story would develop in my mind.
I would love to have this painting at home but i bet its pricey. And i could not find any posters either. So i let it "hang" in my blog for now on.

Madame Gres @ Musee Bourdelle

This week my dream came true as I went to Madame Gres exposition that consisted of 80 outfits in a beautiful surrounding of sculptures of musee Antoine Bourdelle in 15th arr.

I ve first seen her dresses in Musee des Arts Decoratifs last autumn. I fell in love with the work. I watched the movie of the fashion show - and this was amazing , I could.t believe that it was 30-40 yers old.Her dresses are timeless. I tried to find this video again or some photos and information on the internet but there was not much ! Fortunately they made an expo of her work with a movie and i took advantage of it and made photos of all the dresses there as a memory. And I would like to share it.

I m dreaming of having a dress from her... Never seen it anywhere but museums though :/

Crystal room

Yesterday I ve been to Crystal Room Baccarat resto and also discovered the Baccarat museum while strolling there at midnight after dinner. My favourite piece is the crystal red chess board from 1887. I ve always liked chess boards, as elements of decoration, but this one is the queen of chessboards.  They also had stuffed deer and 2 beautiful birds -peacock and unidentified beautiful one.

And of course the dining hall is amazing, with brick walls and black/gold moulding, great chandeliers and vases. The food is special too. Everything ordered was at the top.

As i had 15 min to get ready (as usual) i won't show my outfit in a bigger resolutuion )))

Parc on Saturday.

I have been to a very beautiful park this saturday. Called Parc Buttes Chaumont.  I had to go on the other side of Paris (19th) for it and regret that Hausmann didn't plan one like that in the 16th arrondissement.

It is a park located on hills, so all picnic-ers should watch out not to roll down in the lake. In the middle of the lake is an island with a century old belvedere on the top, with a nice view on Paris and surrounding buildings of course. 

I had totake this picture from web as it is more sun on it and gives a better vision of what I m describing. 

Followed by my iphone reportage))
