Moodne kunst. Modern Art.

Käisin Moodsa Kunsti Muuseumis.

Jah, oli küll moodne :)

Selles mõttes, et kõik seal olnud inimeste loodud asjad on kunagi olnud moodsad.

Minule meeldivad rohkem need asjad, mis kunagi ammu olid moodsad.

Minus nimelt ei tekita mingeid sügavaid tundeid tänapäeva kunstnike sedalaadi teosed, kus seinal oranži puuraami sees ripuvad kaks valget paberilehte.

Ka pruunist jõupaberist A3 mõõdus leht, mille sisse on lõigatud pilu, jätab mu täiesti külmaks.

Selline tore teos oli ka - kaks valget paberit, ühele tõmmatud diagonaalis ja teisele risti üle paberi punane joon. Pealkiri "Mental Exercises."

Aga võibolla nad siiski ei jätnud mind külmaks, kui ma neist siin jutustan :)

One week ago, I visited The Museum of Modern Art.

Oh yes, it was modern :)

What I mean is that I saw many things, created by nice peole and every single thing was infashion one day or another.

Unfortunately, I wasn't taken by modern art such as two piece of white paper hanging on the wall, surrounded by orange frame.

And I don't feel anything when I look at a piece of brown craft paper with a slit in it.

There was also a fine composition called "Mental Exercises"- two pieces of white paper, one with a diagonal red line and the other one with a red line across it.

But maybe they still impressed me because I'm talking about them here :)

Aga see siin on ühe arhitekti nägemus õuest.

One architect's vision of a back yard.

Hollandis valmistatud laud "Cinderella".

Laseriga lõigatud puit.

A table called "Cinderella", made in the Netherlands.

The wood has been cut with a laser.

Moodne kodu.

A modern home.

Ja moodne Korea sõja aegne (1950-1953) helikopter.

***

This helicopter was state of the art during the Korean War, 1950-1953.

Mis aastal see auto moes oli?

Which year was it fashionable?

Selline tore keevitusmask.

I love that welding mask!

Minoxi spioonikaamera loojat Walter Zappi esitletakse siin kui lätlast.

Eks iga rahvas tahab kuulsaid inimesi omaks nimetada.

Kuna ta selle kaamera leiutas Tallinnas Nõmmel (Valdeku tn.35), siis tahaks sõna Eesti ka kuskil näha :)

Walter Zapp, the creator of the miniature Minox camera (later used for spying) is presented here as being Latvian.
I guess every nation wants to grab their share of glory :)
Walter Zapp made his famous invention in Tallinn, Estonia. Woudn't it be nice that they gave credit when credit is due.

See on muidugi Picasso.

Pablo Picasso. (Spanish, 1881-1973). Les Demoiselles d'Avignon. Paris, June-July 1907.

Maalil on kujutatud prostituute (Avignon oli Barcelonas üks tänav, mis oli kuulus oma bordelli poolest).

Picasso, of course.

These are prostitutes on the painting titled Les Demoiselles d'Avignon.

The Avignon was a street in Barcelona famed for its brothel.
