As I have a craving for delicate lamps, I could not deny you this fine example.

To take curtain calls …
For that mundane matter, found this very creative curtains on a local market. They were made of birdies, hair rollers, paper cubes, …
United we stand …
Divided we fall … sorry for posting such mundane stuff, but I could not resist …
The naked man
For those who are not yet fed up with naked men, there is another exhibition in Linz.
The more than 300 paintings, sculptures and videos show men not primarily in an art historical context, but in a social. The exhibition starts with the period around 1900.
The works by Edvard Munch, Louise Bourgeois, Keith Haring, Pierre et Gilles and many more are divided into twelve chapters such as ‘Adam’, ‘I’, ‘Biceps’, ‘Domination’, ‘Gay’, ‘Boy’, ‘Age’ or ‘Pose’.

Milan Closets
Found this amazing photo series by PIETRO BARONI. It shows ordinary Milanese people in front of their closets.
Let us hear by which thoughts the maestro was driven:
“For the rest of the world, Milan is one of the main references for fashion and luxury brands. The vision of the everyday is almost blocked, hidden by big names in luxury, fashion and design. In my project I wanted to photograph the Milanese, ordinary people, in front of their closet. Open. Different ages, gender, social class or profession create a collage mixed a city that hides its sides the most intriguing homes. I have tried (and am still continuing) to find them.”

Shine a light …
Found this sober and unpretentious, yet very sophisticated lamp on a balcony. In Arabic countries such designs are quite common.
