Mad for Love

Posted by paris | paris | Friday 28 May 2010 11:08 am

Imagine flying over a city, a town, a special place, as the plane door opens and you feel a sharp gust of air blow across your face. You’re terrified and hold the door tightly with your gloves as your legs tremble and hands sweat you, thank God for the gloves. You take a deep breath and jump. For a second you do not feel your breath, you don’t think or react, and you note that your face is contorted. The wind speed deforms the skin on your face, and unable to scream you fall at an unimaginable speed, your eyes gaze at the fast approaching ground. When you start to realize what you’re doing, you pull the cable and pray that the parachute deploys as it should. And suddenly, your body rises and you begin to descend slowly. Your only hope from there down is that the person you expected reads the statement tacked on to the parachute.

crazy things for  love

That, gentlemen, is an act of love, or rather, the act of someone who is mad for love. An act such as this is done for a specific reason, to draw attention to something special for that special someone who you love. But this isn’t just any special attention, it’s not buying her a rose or taking her to a movie, or even inviting him to spend a romantic weekend visiting the city of love and renting great apartments in Paris. No, this is the gesture that puts all your principles to the test. You’re performing an act that sets precedents, and certainly haven’t fallen into the trap of thinking twice, because of course, if you had, you wouldn’t be expressing your crazy love.

Worst of all, these acts don’t ensure your goal is reached; you can be risking your life for nothing, though should you die, your mourners can at least say you gave everything to someone. The truth is that there’s no need to jump from a plane to declare your love, apologize or any other reason, and it’s very important to finish you crazy love games alive if you wish to keep enjoying the affair. Using Romeo and Juliet or Thelma and Louise (say what they may, this couple represents crazy love than anyone!) doesn’t pay off. There’s no need to throw a precious Ford Thunderbird off a cliff to prove something. The important thing about being truly in love is to make your gestures with total conviction and hope that the person you want, knows and recognizes the sacrifices you’ve made.

Artists after the Berlin Wall at the Pompidou

the exhibit Trans-national: Trans-generational: Promises of the Past takes a peculiar and profound journey to post-Wall Europe, and will be open until July, in the South Gallery of the Pompidou Contemporary Art Centre.

Trans-national and Trans-generational Art

The exhibition interrogates the old European opposition East / West, and features work by over fifty artists, most from Central and Eastern Europe, and rethinks the traditional notions of art history as linear and continuous.

The exhibition includes works by artists such as Sanja Ivekovi? (Zagreb 1949), who from recorded his own image in different formats to illustrate the reality of his country; Dimitrije Bašicevic Mangel (Zagreb, 1949) who lived for several years in Vienna and then actively participated in political opposition spaces in the former Yugoslavia and Edward Krasinski (Lustk, 1925), who at 60 moved to Warsaw, where he founded Foksal Gallery (1966). These three artists have undoubtedly imbued their artwork and themes, with influences relating to their countries of origin, especially as their work has accounted for and recorded for the social, political and cultural shake-ups past 30 years.

It is also worth noting the remarkable international diffusion of the artists represented by the exhibit; everyone has exhibited in such internationally renowned shows such as Documenta in Kassel, Venice Biennale, and other high-level exhibition spaces like the Tate Gallery in London or MOMA New York.

The more than 160 works of art collected in the Pompidou cover a variety of artistic disciplines in an apparently chaotic manner, from the original space art of Sosnowska (Poland) while the Slovenian Tobias Putrih´s installation serves as a deconstruction of the archival spaces of former Eastern Europe, in addition to tracing the artistic exchange between Paris and Eastern Europe East.

Their will also be a series of documentary films about artists and their performances.

This is a huge exhibit, not just for its size, but also for its content and intellectual weight. For an edifying hello to Parisian spring, rent Apartments in Paris end enjoy great moments of reflection.

Fiódor Dostoyevski Paris

The Musée d’Orsay is undoubtedly one of the Parisian museums worth more than just one visit. The building itself is an old railway station, built for the world’s fair of 1900, and its successful transformation into a museum was carried out by a team led by Game Aulenti, which alone should arouse your curiosity. The exhibition area occupies 16. 853 m², and there are 80 galleries and rooms housing the museum’s collection, with works from the period 1848-1914, as well as exhibitions.

The novel by Russian writer Fyodor Dostoevsky “Crime and Punishment” gives the title to this original and interesting exhibition, which opened on March 16 and runs until June 27, 2010. Crime and punitive systems, and their political, legal and social implications constitute an interesting thematic framework for this curatorial exploration, which will surely give rise to much discussion. Crime literature is also one of the genres most appreciated by readers worldwide.

The Orsay Museum’s exhibition runs through a historical period that goes from 1791, when in France abolition of the death penalty was first proposed by Marquis de Saint Fargeau Louis Michel le Peletier, until September 30, 1981, when the country finally abolished the death penalty. For each period works have been chosen as well as the most significant publications, such includes paintings by “The Assassination of Marat” by Jean-Joseph Weerts, (1793) or the “Menaced Assassin” Rene Magritte …

Not only literature but also the visual arts, from painting and photography to cinema have also been coloured by a morbid interest in crime and punitive methods, including the death penalty and its macabre symbols such as the gallows, the guillotine or the electric chair

Artists such as Goya, Goya, Gericault, Picasso, Magritte addressed these issues by creating priceless works of art.

The exhibition offers a historical and artistic vision of crime and its punishment, worth visiting for its perspective on issues which continue being important in the present day. To take advantage of the city to rent apartments in Paris, where you can relax just like at home.

Erotic telephone

Posted by paris | paris | Monday 10 May 2010 10:47 am

Have you ever practiced phone sex? If would you like to, I strongly recommend it. Of course, it has nothing to do with sex practiced physically, but it gets you to develop new forms of expression. This is an erotic conversation which seeks to reach the heights of any other sex, as in theory it is the pure excitement that encourages two people to form this kind of relationship. But, who is looking for this type of relationship? There are two types of people that have phone sex. The most obvious is the one that calls a professional in search of pleasure. Thus, you have to call an erotic number and, who you want makes you see the stars… of course, for a fee. That’s obvious because, at the end of the day, erotic workers must be paid for their work, just as any other worker.

erotic telephone

It’s not so always so easy to pick up the phone and say “come on, let’s have phone sex”. Often, these types of calls arise when two people can not physically have sex so, impatient and full of desire, they get on the phone and the conversation simply arises. Of course, as in all sexual relationships, excitation should slowly build. So, the beginning could be for example, to explain a erotic story or confess a sexual desire, maybe, you can talk about what you want to do in this moment too. From that moment, introduce moans of pleasure to let the other party feel you pleasure. The speaker can understand that he’s doing a good job.

This type of sex has jumped to the front row thanks to popular characters and athletes such as Tiger Woods, who used phone sex to hold hot talks with their lovers or partners. It is clear that text messages can also be included in this type of sex, though it may seem, a priori, much harder to reach orgasm because it requires more physical effort. The truth is that I would not mind having phone sex lying in an apartment in Paris with wonderful views of the City of Love. Is there a more romantic framework to enjoy this experience? Surely not, and therefore I’m willing to rent apartments in Paris to live these erotic moments.
