Künstlerhaus Stuttgart opens 'Teachings of the Flood curated by Tamarind Rossetti & Stephen Wright
STUTTGART.- What is a river? The saying goes: “A river is what flows, and what emerges in its wake.” A river is not only the deep current of the mainstem, but also the tributaries with all their branches and sources, the spreading and withdrawing waters, the gleaming wetlands and damp prairie soils. A river only stops at the limits of its watershed—in this case the La Plata basin, encompassing parts of Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia and Brazil. Casa Río is an eco-activist NGO using art as a transformative practice within grassroots communities. It’s first of all a real place—a “river house” and a “building power lab”—located among many alternative communities along the Río de la Plata estuary in Argentina, a short train ride south of Buenos Aires. But we are also part of a basin-wide alliance, Wetlands ... More

Flashback
On a day like today, English artist William Hogarth was born
November 10, 1697. William Hogarth (10 November 1697 - 26 October 1764) was an English painter, printmaker, pictorial satirist, social critic and editorial cartoonist who has been credited with pioneering western sequential art. His work ranged from realistic portraiture to comic strip-like series of pictures called "modern moral subjects". Knowledge of his work is so pervasive that satirical political illustrations in this style are often referred to as "Hogarthian." In this image: A visitor looks at a William Hogarth painting 'David Garrick as Richard III', on display at Tate Britain art gallery in London, Monday, Feb. 5, 2007.
