Jahreszeiten auf der Wiesn. Die Oktoberfest-Zelte sind fast weggeräumt und die Zelte des Winter Winter Tollwoods bald auch schon wieder fertig. Seasons at Theresienwiese. Since Oktoberfest is built down now, Winter Tollwood tents are nearly built up. Always occupied by events. (hier: Theresienwiese, München)

One of last two remaining Paternosters at Munich. Most of them stopped during the 70s cause of safety reasons. Enjoy the ride. :-) (Munich, Germany)

Style of the Week : Constructivism (2/4)

Yakov Chernikov ►tumblr ►facebook

Yakov Chernikov studied at the college of art in Odessa and then he moved in 1914 to Petrograd (St. Petersburg). There he joined the Architecture faculty of the Imperial Academy of Arts in 1916, where he later studied under Leon Benois. Greatly interested in futurist movements, including constructivism, and the suprematism of Malevich (with whom he was acquainted), he set out his ideas in a series of books in the late 1920s and early 1930s, including:

The Art of Graphic Representation (1927)

Fundamentals of Contemporary Architecture (1930)

The Construction of Architectural and Machine Forms (1931)

101 Architectural Fantasies (1933)

The Art of Roberto Burle Marx

Roberto Burle Marx (1909–1994) was one of the most influential landscape architects of the twentieth century, yet he is not a familiar figure outside of his native Brazil. He is best known for his iconic seaside pavements on Rio de Janeiro’s Copacabana Beach, and for his abstract, geometric garden designs. But his work encompasses an enormous range of artistic forms and styles: Burle Marx was a painter and sculptor; a designer of textiles, jewelry, theater sets, and costumes; a ceramicist and stained-glass artist. He was an avid art collector, a talented baritone, a consummate cook, and a visionary self-taught botanist and ecologist. For him, all these endeavors were equally important, facets of one another.
