Pluma BlancaA place of refuge and dreams
Eclectic changing scenes Artists Musicians and Thinkers A dance of winking drinkers Jimi Hendrix on the wall Speaking a language for us all Exquisitely the night moves on Laughter and discussion bond In here politics have no place This is an intellectual space She whispers in my ear Shall we have another beer The clock ticks past one None of us are done Tomorrow doesn’t exist How could I resist The white feather shines It’s creative and sublime And now I end this Rhyme... All of the pieces below are are three dimensional and are built on a 3x3 inch cube. They include collage as well as assemblage elements. This series of works is a response to the now almost constant forms of surveillance we are under in our daily lives. Almost daily we provide our information through various means without even considering the consequences. No. 6 "It's Own Life" Available No. 5

In a complete commotion a person has to take a stand and put it on the market. Based on dadaist principles, this production bares a title ”L’ART POUR L’ART EX-SUPERSTAR, IT IS TIME TO SHINE” Techniques of classical painting, became too heavy for a present-day consumer with weary concentration, ripped apart from the amount of demands he has to fulfill on a daily basis. Now is the time for more direct, stronger and purer step towards the observer. He needs to be splashed, slapped, refreshed, coloured, overjoyed. All polished, shiny, untouchable, mighty, puffed, unscratchable, with stretched and overstrung surface, the 21stcentury calls for perfection, maybe too external, too formal, loathing old age and decay. I wanted to give my contribution by harmonizing the relation between the exterior and the interior and reviving the spirituality on several levels. I often work with elements which represent the minds of the machines. Pulled out of their usual context and detached from their function, they are still filled with urban symbolic, logic, beauty and intense colours. It is not my goal to promote the idea of recycling although I support it wholeheartedly out of respect for this tormented planet. I am more impressed by the beauty of those pieces of old gadgets. Furthermore, the materials I use are documents of time and changes, of expensive and complex manufacturing processes, facts of the magnificent human thought. Used as elements of artwork they are in an upcycle process different from recycle in which the objects are degraded to feedstock. The artistic upcycle process glorifies those chosen objects as aesthetic symbols. I call for a new breakthrough in the face of a new collapse of western civilization which as the Dadaists said is “a dangerous mystification giving false stability and illusion of an anthropocentric universe.” Old things in new clothes. For Dadaists The First World War signified a great comeback of western man’s egoism and megalomania. Wars are still around us, aren’t they? An entire century passed without any essential change. I enjoy the changes in aesthetics; any other change has to be an act of personal effort. With my exhibition I wish to give hope in the belief that every individual refinement is worthwhile. My paintings are ‘rap’ and ‘dread’, ‘parkour’ and ‘comics’, ‘graffiti’ and ‘pseudo Esperanto’ with lots of joy and urban defiance toward the expected and the linear, with the idea of desirability of shine, Шајn, with capital Cyrillic Ш. Shhh...shhh... A calming sound. Shine is an achievable feeling. We all have it and we can bring it to the surface. Milena Bošković Badnjar The Witness SeriesL’ART POUR L’ART EX-SUPERSTAR - Aluminum SeriesA little over a year ago I began a series of works regarding the nature of the now almost constant forms of surveillance we are under in our daily lives. Whether it's Social Media, and other online venues or ever-present cameras around us we have essentially given up our privacy. What does that mean? Does it matter? The work below is one of three in the series thus far. "Ubiquitous Surveillance 2" Assemblage The above piece will be featured in the "ArtsIlliana gallery in Terre Haute, Indiana beginning August 2, 2019-October 18, 2019. The show is entitled "Red". Below is the Gallery statement about the show. "Is RED just a color? If it is, then how many variations of RED are there? Throughout history humans have had a love/hate relationship with RED, e.g. in the 20th century we had RED countries and in the 21st century we have RED states. Is RED more than just a color?" - nArtsIlliana
Link - http://www.artsilliana.com Music, Lyrics and Images by Art Tucker Related Poem for "Strange World" It’s such a strange world We never know what we’l find A search for our own kind A search that’s simply blind Open up your closed mind It’s a strange world Serching for a safe space Theres a clear line between space and embrace Step into a new place A closed mind is a waste of time Now you make a rhyme My visual interpretation of Charles Bukowski's Poem, "Bluebird" there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out but I’m too tough for him, I say, stay in there, I’m not going to let anybody see you. there’s a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I pour whiskey on him and inhale cigarette smoke and the whores and the bartenders and the grocery clerks never know that he’s in there. there’s a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I’m too tough for him, I say, stay down, do you want to mess me up? you want to screw up the works? you want to blow my book sales in Europe? there’s a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I’m too clever, I only let him out at night sometimes when everybody’s asleep. I say, I know that you’re there, so don’t be sad. then I put him back, but he’s singing a little in there, I haven’t quite let him die and we sleep together like that with our secret pact and it’s nice enough to make a man weep, but I don’t weep, do you? Tristan Tzara Video by ArtotemArt Tristan Tzara was a Romanian and French avant-garde poet, essayist and performance artist. Also active as a journalist, playwright, literary and art critic, composer and film director, he was known best for being one of the founders and central figures of the Dada art movement. Tzara's shows at the Cabaret Voltaire and Zunfthaus zur Waag, as well as his poetry and art manifestos, became a main feature of early Dadaism. His work represented Dada's nihilistic side, in contrast with the more moderate approach favored by Hugo Ball. Text adapted from Wikipedia.
