The Cult of Beauty









This wonderful exhibit called The Cult of Beauty is open now at the V&A.

Art for Art's Sake:)

Quote from their leaflet in regards to the artists associated with this new Aesthetic Movement in 19th century Britian: " Art that existed only in order to be beautiful: pictures that did not tell stories or point morals; sculptures that simply offered visual and tactile delight and dared to hint at sensual pleasures."

Dante Gabriel Rossetti is a big part of this exhibit/ movement as is Monsieur Oscar Wilde whom famously said: "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying." or was it me who said this? Not sure;)

Love of Today: Lars von Trier's Melancholia



Melancholia from Zentropa on Vimeo.

I can't wait for this movie to come out.

Quote from Moviefone: “The film follows the effect on a family at the news that a distant planet, Melancholia, is on its way to collide with Earth. Recently-married Justine becomes more reflective, whilst her relationships with her sister and close family start to come apart, as each deals with the impending doom. Trier filmed ‘Melancholia’ in his usual style – not rehearsing the actors and letting them improvise, whilst he gave slight guidance between takes. It is his first feature length movie since 2009′s graphic and highly controversial Antichrist, and Trier has revealed that ‘Melancholia’ will be the first of his films to have an unhappy ending.”

And......I So want Kirsten Dunst perfection blonde locks:)

It will hit the cinemas in the UK on September 30th.
