Paul Noble in his studio. (bron: The Rug Company) Paul Noble in his studio. (bron en foto: Justin Westover) Vanaf 14 juni t/m 21 september is een grote serie (23 stuks) tekeningen van Paul Noble te zien in Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam. "Bezoekers kunnen zich in de zomer van 2014 verwonderen over de gebeurtenissen in deze fantasievolle wereld. Paul Noble (1963, Groot-Brittannië) werkt sinds 1996 aan het project. In de expositie worden alle van hem bekende grote werken (soms wel 7x5 meter per stuk) samengebracht. Deze serie is nog nooit bijeen getoond en verspreid geraakt over verzamelingen en musea over de gehele wereld. De serie wordt getoond ‘minus twee’, in verband met de projecten waaraan Paul Noble ook na de tentoonstelling in 2014 nog verder zal werken. In 2004 en 2005 kocht Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen twee werken van de kunstenaar. In die jaren is de afspraak gemaakt om het project tegen de tijd dat het zijn voltooiing nadert, al is het de vraag of het ooit afkomt, in de 1500 vierkante meter grote Bodonzaal van Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen te tonen."

O título pode sugerir um botequinho de bairro cheio de tiozinhos pinguços aboletados em mesinhas da Nova Schin; mas que nada! Na verdade eu estou falando de um bar/restaurante/espaço cultural chamado Le Nid que fica em Nantes, na França. Localizado no 32º andar da Tower Brittany, seu grande atrativo – grande mesmo – é um pássaro gigantesco criado por Jean Jullien. Com jeitão que lembra uma cegonha, a enorme ave serpenteia todo o local e o bar onde as bebidas são servidas fica literalmente em seu corpo. Para completar a inusitada instalação, bancos-ovos com direito a assentos em formato de gema. Não sei se as bebidas e comidinhas são boas, mas que o lugar é demais, não tenho dúvida. “Avoadamente legaus”! Link
