RADIOACTIVE WATER INTO PACIFIC OCEAN

2011-04-06T14:06:00.000-07:00

Since Monday, TEPCO has started to discharge 11 500 tonnes of ‘low-level radioactive’ water into the Pacific Ocean. TEPCO plans to dump 10 000 tonnes of this water originating from the reactors to make way for new volumes of highly radioactive water, which have been used to cool the damaged reactors. The remaining 1 500 tonnes, from reactors 5 and 6 will be released into the ocean over five days - at a rate of 300 tonnes daily. The polluted water will be released into “an already highly contaminated water”, reminds DIDIER CHAMPION, director of the French Institute for Radiological Protection and Nuclear Safety (IRSN). “The principal risk for the population resides in the consumption of fish, crustaceans or contaminated algae,” explains Champion, “I would recommend the banning of fishing in this area”. According to the agency Associated Press, water rejected into the ocean would present a level of radioactivity 500 times over the legal limits. Source: Le Figaro

BOOK - EXTREME BEAUTY IN VOGUE

2011-03-23T09:29:00.000-07:00

Always audacious, sometimes outrageous, Vogue’s images distinguish themselves by their willingness to explore the limits of contemporary ideas of beauty and they are created by the greatest photographers of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The one hundred or so featured prints reveal profoundly sensual and highly provocative ...narratives that bear witness to complex cultural attitudes toward female appearance and self-expression. From the neoclassical figures of Edward Steichen to the unconventional nudes of Annie Leibovitz, the aggressive portraiture of Helmut Newton, and the modernism of Steven Klein, the photographs in this volume consider the evolving female subject, in all her strength and contradiction. An entire section is devoted to Irving Penn, who transforms the face and body into images of extraordinary imaginative and aesthetic power.

Hannah Martin’s hard-edged but refined jewelry collections each conjure different personalities, from pirates to Russian oligarchs to Turner and Chas, the rock star and gangster protagonists of Nicolas Roeg’s 1968 film Performance. For her latest, seen today in photographs by Joss McKinley shot at the Lullingstone Castle in Kent, Martin focused on the shadowy Comte de St. Germain, who over the centuries has fascinated notable figures including Madame de Pompadour, Giacomo Casanova and Alexander Pushkin.

La marque allemande de voitures de luxe qui vient de lui proposer un paternariat. Première étape: l’artiste va présenter à l’Art Basel de Miami sa sculpture Queequeq.
