Auf der Suche nach der verlorenen Kunst 🔎
Heute hat das belgische Abgeordnetenhaus das Gemälde „SS. Giovanni e Paolo in Venedig“ von Friedrich Nerly (1807-1878) an die SPK zurückgeben. Das Gemälde verschwand nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg und gelangte später in das belgische Abgeordnetenhaus. #LostArt

Endlich zurück!

Am 23. September hat das belgische Abgeordnetenhaus ein Gemälde von Friedrich Nerly an die SPK zurückgeben. Es gehörte zur Sammlung der Alten Nationalgalerie der Staatlichen Museen zu Berlin und galt bisher als Kriegsverlust.

Lately, I feel like, people are just yelling into the void at each other, but not talking. I see this in my texts, my feeds, my work, and my life. #listening #lostart

Chapter 2 — The One That Got Away

🌙 One of my very first paintings:
An alien, sprawled across a glowing mushroom, blowing clouds into the cosmic night.

For a long time it lived in my room, a quiet companion to my dreams. Then one night, I took it to a bush party I’d organised — figured it was time it saw the stars outside the canvas.

By morning, it was gone.
I like to think it found a new home with someone who looked at it and thought, “Yeah… that’s my vibe.”
Maybe the alien is still out there, still floating under some other moon.

🤔 Ah, nothing screams cutting-edge computer science like a trip down memory lane with logarithms and coatless birthday parties. 💼🌼 In this riveting biweekly saga, Linda Liukas invites us to delve into the "Lost Art" of nostalgia—because clearly, calculus and childhood tales go hand in hand. 😂 #ThrowbackTo1944

Faces 2025 Book One, page 20.

This drawing was inspired by a painting by and unknown artist titled "Portrait of A", believed to be poet Ann Akkmatova, from the 1920s (second image). Additional images accompany the painting with more information. I found it on Art of The Zero Category, a website dedicated to a collection of paintings banned in Russia by Stalin. The website is a fascinating look into Stalin-era Russia and the modern art trade. I definitely recommend checking it out. artofthezero.com

Title: Portrait of Anna
Medium: Pencil
Completion Date: January 13, 2025

Faces 2025 is my dedicated sketchbook project to make at least 365 faces by the end of this year.
