‎Art historians have often minimized the variety and complexity of seventeenth-century Spanish painting by concentrating on individual artists and their works and by stressing discovery of new information rather than interpretation. As a consequence, the painter emerges in isolation from the forces that shaped his work. Jonathan Brown offers another approach to the subject by relating important Spanish Baroque paintings and painters to their cultural milieu.‎

‎Jonathan Meese (born January 23, 1970 in Tokyo) is a German painter, sculptor, performance artist and installation artist based in Berlin and Hamburg. Jonathan Meese ( 1970 Tokyo, lives and works in Berlin and Hamburg) is renowned for his multi-faceted work, including wildly exuberant paintings, installations, ecstatic performances and a powerful body of sculptures in a variety of media. Apparently effortlessly, he has developed in all genres an independent and at the same time unique vocabulary that gives his work a variety, visual energy and quality which, according to Robert Fleck, has been unheard of since Picasso. Meese creates an expansive personal mythology, which also features characters inspired by history, legends and science fiction. Throughout his works you can find a not easily decodable system of signs/badges, neologisms, symbols, and figurative allusions to all types of power seekers, mythical personages and geniuses of history, stars and starlets of pop culture, or fictional heroes of novels and films. All of Meese?s works share a humor tending towards the grotesque, as well as a powerful, original creative will. Both are driven and supported by a striving for a rule of art, the dictatorship of art. What is meant here is the development of a new world order where art is the legislative power, and free play the foundation of all life and creation.This utopian approach runs like a leitmotif through all his works and brings his individual parts of the oeuvre together to form the Jonathan Meese Gesamtkunstwerk. He does not aim at anarchy, but rather the rule of metabolic necessity: ?Art is total play.? In this exhibition, Meese presents a new body of works, which capture the interplay of interior and exterior worlds, combining the phantasmagoria of the imagination with the bric- -brac of mundane reality. To him, art is osmosis. His paintings are filled with photosynthesis and mimicry, which allows us to enter the counter world. The self portraits and nudes point out that all self portraits are nude and all nudes are self portraits. Within the self portraits you can find the childhood of everything, with the ultimate self portrait being the embryo. According to Meese this exhibition celebrates ?the birth of the Gesamtkunstwerk?. This theme is also visualized in the large scale painting TOTAL RECALL (THE R.I.P.-DIDDLOIDEN ARE BACK TO FIGHT THE ?KAMPF UM KUNST (BIRTH OF GESAMTKUNSTWERK)). With this exhibition, he pays hommage to evolution, nature, love, power, collage, abstraction, animalism, and art itself. Meese celebrates especially the following artists and ?Spielkinder?: Van Gogh, Fidus, Warhol, Dali, Picasso, Balthus, Barbarella, Pippi Longstocking, and Moominism.‎

‎Op 17 september 1944 begon Market Garden, een van de grootste militaire operaties van de Tweede Wereldoorlog. De geallieerden zouden in Duitsland snel de Rijn oversteken en nog voor de kerst de nazi?s verslaan. De grondtroepen begonnen hun opmars in het Belgische Neerpelt en luchtlandingstroepen moesten het vervolg van de route door Zuidoost-Nederland veilig stellen. Ondanks een volhardende strijd rond Arnhem stokte de opmars bij Nijmegen. In de volgende maanden werden nieuwe plannen gesmeed en een Brits-Canadees leger viel in februari 1945 vanuit het Rijk van Nijmegen Duitsland binnen. Pas op 24 maart staken de geallieerden de Rijn over, nu bij Wesel. De bevrijding in beeld verbindt voor het eerst de talloze verhalen over de bevrijding van Zuidoost-Nederland en het Rijnland tot een samenhangende geschiedenis. Een halfjaar lang waren Noord-Brabant, Gelderland en delen van Limburg het toneel van omvangrijke militaire operaties en boden deze provincies onderdak aan meer dan een miljoen soldaten. Naast het militaire verhaal belicht Joost Rosendaal ook welke gevolgen de oorlog had voor de inwoners van dit gebied. Zijn verhaal verrijkt hij met sprekende foto?s van hoge kwaliteit. De bevrijding in beeld is een fotoboek voor iedereen met interesse in deze belangrijke fase van de Tweede Wereldoorlog. ‎

‎destruction of Nijmegen, 1944 American bombs and German fire‎

‎, vantilt uitgeverij, 2014 paperback, 14 x 22 cm, 144pp, geillustreerd in kleur, text only in English. ISBN 9789460041754.‎

‎On 22 February 1944 the Dutch city of Nijmegen was bombed by American aircraft. This was one of the worst disasters to strike the Netherlands in the twentieth century: nearly 800 people were killed, thousands were injured and a quarter of the city centre was wiped off the map. For years there has been much speculation about the reasons for the bombardment. An American commander claimed he had mistaken Nijmegen for the nearby German town of Goch. But was this true? What actually happened? Seven months after the bombardment, Operation Market Garden began and Nijmegen became a front-line city. Hundreds more were killed, and thousands of houses were destroyed or badly damaged. Although today much more is known about the bombardment, myths have continued to circulate. Joost Rosendaal?s The destruction of Nijmegen, 1944 unravels the story of this ?unfriendly fire? and the eventual liberation of Nijmegen.‎
