Si Goya estuviera entre nosotros tendría un blog de gossip






Homenaje a Goya desde Gallery of the Absurd. Janice Dikinson montándola a la salida de un restaurante en Los Ángeles, y como no podía ser de otra manera en estos tiempos, allí había un fotógrafo para captar la escena. Y de eso a icono cultural solo hay unos cuantos pasos y un poco de talento por en medio. Como siempre os dejo con el texto original de la autora:

Francisco Goya (1746-1828) is often called the "father of modern art" and remains one of Spain's most important artists. A superb portraitist and skilled printmaker, Goya's set of 80 etchings called Los Caprichos is among some of his finest work. Inspired by his observation and critique of human foibles during the tumultuous era of late 18th century Spanish society, Los Caprichos is a series of dark satire filled with monsterous and foolish characters. If Goya were around today, I wonder what his take on celebrity gossip would be? All I know is that I saw this photo of Janice Dickinson crouching on the sidewalk and was overcome with cold fear tempered with gut-busting amusement. Medium: ink on paper. Much thanks to Miguel in Madrid for the translation.
