ART CONNECTÉ 2 | VISIONS {TRANS}FORMÉES
Jean-Baptiste Courtier | on Tumblr (France)
Le travail de Jean-Baptiste Courtier navigue entre rêve et réalité. Ses images, prises à la chambre photographique sur l’instant, capturent une vision qu’il a imaginé, une performance instantanée, un fantasme irréel. Empreinte d’une poésie égoïste, la série “Natation synchronisée” laisse malgré tout au spectateur l’espace nécessaire pour partager ce songe léger et délicat avec son auteur.
VENEZ DÉCOUVRIR LES ARTISTES CONNECTÉS CE SOIR À 19H30
SHAG galerie - 26 rue Mahias 92100 Boulogne - RSVP[more Jean-Baptiste Courtier]

David Denby on “The Great Gatsby”: “Luhrmann’s vulgarity is designed to win over the young audience, and it suggests that he’s less a filmmaker than a music-video director with endless resources and a stunning absence of taste.” http://nyr.kr/1414CXu
I have a feeling that if I ever end my Baz ban, I will strongly agree with this article, which makes me think I should keep the ban going strong. WHY MUST YOU RUIN EVERYTHING, BAZ LUHRMANN?!
