Le déjeuner sur l'herbe (Modern) variations

"Le déjeuner sur l'herbe" de Rip Hopkins Galerie Le réverbère à Lyon

Cent quarante-cinq ans après, "Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe" d'Edouard Manet fait de nouveau scandale... mais cette fois, c'est à Paris Photo.

The men are simply ignoring the woman, engaged in their conversation and oblivious to the viewer.  Both nude figures here look into the eyes of the viewer...






Beauty is after all  in the eyes of the beholder..

Manet with strangers in the Park

Step Into a Painting: As we walk through this sculpture park at The Grounds for Sculpture and some sculptures strike us as very familiar. 

Manet with strangers J. Seward Johnson, Jr. recreates Edouard Manet's (French, 1832-83) painting, "Déjeuner Sur l'Herbe,"

In Beyond the Frame, Impressionism Revisited, Johnson takes 19th-century masterpieces and transforms them into three-dimensional tableaux. Johnson's interpretations are life-size scenes beckoning you to explore. Each piece has a "sweet spot," marked by a pair of footprints, allowing viewers to see a close estimation of the original painting in three dimensions. Move from that spot, and the works are sheer Johnson invention. With the help of a team of artists, he has continued the sculptures beyond the borders of the framed paintings, imagining the scenery and details that might have surrounded the original artwork.

each piece has a "sweet spot"

Most impressive is the recreation of Monet's garden and Japanese bridge, complete with weeping willow, flowers, and boat as seen in the background.

Tempest Storm - Guns n Funs pas Autre
One year ago, beginning March 31, the Museum of Sex will showcase select works from two contemporary artists along with historical items related to the art and performance of burlesque. The exhibit, entitled The Nudie Artist: Burlesque Revived, will feature select artifacts from the 1880s to the 1950s, modern works of art from burlesque photographer Leland Bobbé and artist Luma Rouge and footage from Behind the Burly Q, a film by Leslie Zemeckis. The Nudie Artist: Burlesque Revived allows visitors to peek inside the world of burlesque and see the performance art from a personal angle. Inspiring artwork, personal photos and rare footage of the time, as well as costuming will be on display to provide a glimpse into the past life of an art form that is resurging in today’s modern world. (sorry, it took Google a whole year to get this in the search engine)

The Serpent's Kiss by Gustav Klimt

Imagine that you find her in the garden of bliss...
You like what you see, she appears to be this,
"woman of your dreams..." !!

You begin to undress her with those have-closed eyes
suddenlty a vulgar tattoo appears on her thighs
" Satan ! "  ??? -- Who is this guy?

Ok, you forgive her maybe, this time...
Everbody has some secret to hide;  Besides,
her secretions are driving you wild!

... or at least the thought of her;  Why?
does she look at you with those half-baked eyes?
Am I missing something? Is she some guy in disguise?

So you get to her ass Badda boom badda bing!
She's wearing more bling than her ass is wide...
You start to shake that Balzac thing

But that doesn't stop you, you're down to bare skin
You seek to penetrate her; Come to daddy, hoosier daddy?
Now you're in, beyond sin!

Soft white warm smooth voluptuous ass,
Now you're in to your nads, it's too late to pass
And all that long dark hair that hangs in a mass over her back

Suddenly parts to reveal her dry roots,
you notice she is still wearing her boots
lining up for inspection preparing for a lethal injection

Enter the matrix, Domina Dominatrix, all dressed in latex!
All is not what it appears, nor does it seem otherwise
Do I pull out now and believe the lies or face the truth

or bury my face in those soft warm thighs, sigh...
Either way, I'm bound to die, that small death we all die
when we come to the conclusion that we've been duped!

And then there's the endurance thing
If you were gonna stop, why did you start?
Is it polite not to fart, while practicing the "love" art?

Oh hell, let's just screw!
Screw the woman of your dreams !!
Screw the savage rutting slut, until she bleeds,
Fuck yeah, thank you! Fuck...


... you text her on the phone, I know,
It's so impersonal, "Got any pheromones?"
She texts back, "Nuff to make a mad dog moan!
Baby, I'm comin' home!!"
