Samuel Beckett
Waiting for Godot 1948-1949
best
thing
ever
Wow, I had the worst brain freeze while watching the sesame street clip......
I love Samuel Beckett too. I've only seen this and one or two of his other works. My english teacher in 10th grade told me about this play. We never got to watch it in class though. Actually, all she mentioned was Theatre of the Absurd and I took the liberty of looking it up. Good find.
it's this at the moment.
I found it in the postcard shop of the serpentine gallery.
I'm in love with the look in her eyes and the shade of blue the umbrella is.
I like art that gives you stories in your head. which is why I hate rothko, who just gives me aches in my head.

This is nice
She looks relieved about something, like a giant weight has been lifted off her shoulders and now she's just enjoying her stroll in the rain.

I'm not too big into statues myself for the most part, though I appreciate much of them.
My favorite of the moment.
It's an untitled Salvador Dali from 1942....
I think this is the one I'm getting tattooed.....I still have a year to think about it, but I think this is the one. (probably the body on the right because it has a more pronounced apple and the doves at the third cut)
I just went to the 1930s exhibit at the National Gallery of Canada the other day. Lots of great Dali stuff there, and it's sooo amazing to see in person

Maybe you could send him like a coat hanger or soup mix in the mail with a post it-
"when you paint with your eyes closed, you never become picasso, you just become an ironic narcissist with uncomfortable shades".
Throwing people off is thrilling.

This makes me feel a little sad because I enjoy Rothko. I'm almost an opposite. I'm not keen on stories, but I love ideas and reactions of my senses. Instead of desiring to see scenes, I desire to see connection to connection to connection of ideas.
