Expressionistic art
Gary Kirkpatrick We were walking near San Giovanni in Laterano when we ran across this scene. San Giovanni is one of four churches in Rome. It dates from the 4th century although it is much renovated. The main doors come from the Roman senate in the forum. The Pope opens them during Jubilee celebrations. We were there when Pope John did so in 2000. Across the street is a set of steps supposedly used by Jesus when he was questioned by Pontius Pilot.

This takes place in the music hall in the lower level of the Palau de la Musica, in Valencia, Spain. It is one of only three remaining in a large series of paintings. They originate with miniature pen and ink drawings done in the audience at the Palau. They explore the state of mind we experience when we listen to music, in this case that of symphonic bands. There is a dream like state some experience where we are in between a zone.
Here is another illustrated small book, this one on our favorite place to live, Valencia, Spain. You can swipe through the pages with your finger on a touch screen. Enjoy!

Inspired by Edward Hopper’s Conference at Night, 1949. Strong contrasts, the powerful light of the window, two shimmering figures replace the dialogue of Conference. Out of focus, fuzzy dresses, perhaps made of fuzzy fabric, envelop the figures in a warmth protective against the rooms colder hues representing the starkness and loneliness of modern urban life.
