Een Petit Palais in Avignon met bijbehorende overdenkingen
Hoe je in Avignon via middeleeuwse kunst terechtkomt bij Halloween en de discussies over identiteit en kleur? Lees over en kijk naar de gevolgen van een bezoek aan het Petit Palais. En vergeet de prachtige stad zelf niet. #kunst #art #expo #Avignon
Een Petit Palais in Avignon met bijbehorende overdenkingen
Musée du Petit Palais in Avignon
Stond ik echt met beide benen stevig op de vloer in het Petit Palais in het Franse Avignon (zie vorige week) gefixeerd te kijken naar een schilderij en bevond ik me toch zomaar ook ineens terug in de Chiesa di San Dominico op ‘ons plein’ in het Italiaanse Gubbio. Hoezo stevige spreidstand! In die kerk…

We'll always have Paris*
Pont Alexandre III. One of the most beautiful bridges in Paris. (If not THE most beautiful…)
African masks, Quai Branly museum. Fang or Pahouin, Gabon. (I think.) White was often associated with death and mourning in Africa.
Monument to Human rights, Champ de Mars. The Eiffel tower is to the right. (Not on the picture, Douglas…) This curious contraption was inaugurated in 1989, under the reign…

Robert Clary, who played Corporal Louis LeBeau on Hogan's Heroes, died today, November 16, 2022, at 96 years old.
In addition to being a beloved performer for decades, he was a survivor of the Holocaust during World War 2, but he lost almost all of his family. He was only 16 years old when he was arrested in Paris and deported.
"....[W]e were not even human beings. When we got to Buchenwald, the SS shoved us into a shower room to spend the night. I had heard the rumors about the dummy showerheads that were gas jets. I thought, this is it. But no, it was just a place to sleep. The first eight days there, the Germans kept us without a crumb to eat. We were hanging on to life by pure guts, sleeping on top of each other, every morning waking up to find a new corpse next to you.
"....The whole experience was a complete nightmare, the way they treated us, what we had to do to survive. We were less than animals. Sometimes I dream about those days. I wake up in a sweat terrified for fear I'm about to be sent away to a concentration camp. But I don't hold a grudge because that's a great waste of time. Yes, there's something dark in the human soul. For the most part human beings are not very nice. That's why when you find those who are, you cherish them."
~ Robert (Widerman) Clary
Only three of Clary's 13 siblings survived the Holocaust. On the wall of the apartment building on Rue des Deux Ponts in Paris where he grew up, there is a memorial plaque that reads:
"A la mémoire des 112 habitants de cette
maison dont 40 petits enfants déporté et
morts dans les camps Allemands en 1942."
In memory of the 112 inhabitants of this house,
including 40 young children, deported and dead
in German camps in 1942.
Adieu, Monsieur Clary. Merci, et shalom.
Historia Obscurum
May his memory be a blessing.
