Austrian photographer Inge Prader recently recreated Gustav Klimtâs masterworks for Style Bible, a part of the Life Ball Charity Event in Vienna, Austria.  A team of over 50 professionals worked on the demanding photography project which raises funds to help those with HIV/AIDS.  Makeup artists, costume designers, set designers, lighting specialists and many others worked with models and fully ornamented props to bring to life the fascinating, erotically charged work that Klimt is known for during his âGolden Phase.â
Does someone have a translation of all this glorious sweetness?
Elmo says âduck!â and then âI did it!â and Diego Luna congratulates him sincerely and joyfully, embracing him and saying âwell done! Especially after you tried so many times!â and by that point I could no longer see through my tears of tender joy but I think that was the end
Itâs like millennials do not understand that middle east has been at war for 1000â˛s of years. That we intervened on behalf of Kuwait. That without âbombingâ people that want to kill and oppress others, millions will be murdered and tortured.
âat war for 1000â˛s of yearsâ
you clearly know nothing about Afghanistan nor the middle east
hereâs Afghanistan in the 1950â˛s, 60â˛s, & 70â˛s
Itâs interesting to note that when the communist government came to power in Afghanistan in the late 70â˛s, one of the first things they did was declare equality of the sexes, made education for girls mandatory, & banned child marriages. The conservative tribal leaders who the US armed & funded (& who later became the Taliban) declared this to be a âwar on Islamâ & fought against the central government.
The US had no problem back then with encouraging the growth of Islamic conservatism to counter socialism/communism. You created your biggest enemy & you have no one to blame but yourselves.
BLESS THIS POST
its crazy to me how the US talks about war in the middle east as if its this ancient problem inherent to the area instead of a recent problem created by western countries to further their own interests.
â˘Anish Kapoor gets exclusive rights to use Vantablack, the worldâs âblackest blackâ pigment, which understandably upsets a lot of artists
â˘Stuart Semple responds by creating Pink, the worldâs âpinkest pinkâ pigment, which he makes legally available to everyone except for Anish Kapoor
â˘Kapoor somehow gets ahold of Pink and posts an Instagram photo of his middle finger dunked in the pigment that Semple had banned him from using
â˘Semple gets ahold of Vantablack and posts an Instagram video of his hand making the peace sign with his fingers coated in Vantablack
â˘During this time, Semple also releases Diamond Dust, the âmost glittery glitter,â again available to everyone EXCEPT Anish Kapoor
The best thing about Diamond Dust is that itâs made from actual shards of glass so Anish canât just stick his middle finger in it again
This petty art feud is actually starting to look like it could be one of the most important pieces of performance art of the 21st century
Updates since this article was published:Â
Semple finds out who gave Kapoor the pink
Semple tweets about being âback in the labâ and âfighting the void with the rainbowâ, with a picture of green pigment
Semple posts pictures of both green and yellow pigments on Instagram
The creator of Vantablack comments on the Instagram video of Sempleâs fingers coated in it saying that couldnât actually be Vantablack
Semple apparently proves it to the creatorâs satisfaction by adding clips of it being applied to his Snapchat story
The House GOP reversed course on Tuesday, deciding in a closed door meeting to abandon a plan approved less than 24 hours earlier to gut the independent Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE).
In an emergency conference meeting Tuesday morning, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) offered and the party approved a motion to restore the current OCE rules. The reversal came as members of Congress said their offices were flooded with calls from constituents angered by the decision.
âWe have got just a tremendous number of calls to our office here and district offices concerned about this,â Rep. Walter Jones (R-NC) said, according to Bloomberg News.
After the secret vote Monday night, many people urged others on Twitter to call their members of Congress to find out how they voted. Lists of Congressional office phone numbers were retweeted thousands of times.
Democratic lawmakers also joined the outcry against the vote and publicly blasting the decision. Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi declared that âethics are the first casualty of the new Republican Congress.â
President-elect Donald Trump also responded on Twitter Tuesday morning, saying that the OCE is âunfairâ but questioning the House GOPâs timing. Nevertheless, media organizations credited âcriticismâ from Trump for the reversal.

Richard Taruskin, in the Oxford History of Western Music, writes âChaikovsky,â something which I have never seen repeated elsewhere. It is the only thing that he has written in the OHoWM that I immediately reject without looking for further evidence to disprove its existence. @tchaikovsky-official what do you think?
Itâs spelt ЧаКкoвŃкиК so you can do whatever you want with it in English.
