Repose (STYLING A FAUX LEATHER COAT WITH A TARTAN BLAZER) / Pribranost (DUGI KAPUT OD EKO KOŽE U KOMBINACIJI S KARIRANIM BLAJZEROM)

" A play may be violent, full of motion: yet it has that special kind of repose which allows contemplation and produces the climate in which tragic importance is a possible thing, provided that certain modern conditions are met. In actual existence the moments of love are succeeded by the moment of safety and sleep. The sincere remark is followed by a cynic distrust. Truth is fragmentary, at best: we love and betray each other not in quite the same breath but in two breaths that occur in fairly close sequence."
                                      The Timeless World of a Play, Tennessee Williams

"Drama može biti nasilna, u stalnom kretanju, no  ipak ima onu posebno vrstu pribranosti koja omogućava promišljanje i stvara klimu u kojoj je tragična važnost mogućnost, ukoliko se izađe u susret nekim modernim uvjetima. U stvarnosti, trenutci ljubavi se nastavljaju na trenutke sigurnosti i sna. Iskrena izjava bude praćena ciničnim nepovjerenjem. Istina je, u najboljem slučaju, isprekidana: volimo i izdajemo jedno drugo ne baš u istom dahu, ali u dva daha koji se događaju u jako bliskom slijedu."
 Bezvremenski svijet drame, Tennesse Williams 


I can't get these lines out of my head. This has got to be one of the most profound things ever written about art. Are we wrong to reserve the tragic importance only for plays (i.e. art)? Is life really such a struggle that it doesn't mix well with art? Art is the very best in us. Why is it then so hard to reach? Why must an artist always pay the price? Why is creating art so paintful? Even experiencing art is a mixture of paint of pleasure. Why is art so different than life? It is as dynamic as life and often just as violent, but it is different, it is of a higher quality than the life itself...that is why it must needs certain conditions, that is why it takes a lot from us.

Ne mogu si izbiti ove redove iz glave. Ovo mora biti jedna od najdubljih stvari ikad napisanih o umjetnosti.  Jesmo li u krivu što važnost tragičnoga čuvamo samo za drame (to jest umjetnost)? Je li život doista takva borba da se ne miješa dobro sa umjetnošću. Umjetnost je ono najbolje u nama. Zašto ju je onda tako teško dostići? Zašto umjetnik uvijek plaća cijenu? Zašto je stvaranje umjetnosti tako bolno? Čak i njen doživljaj je mješavina boli i užitka. Zašto je umjetnost tako drukčija od života? Jednako je dinamička kao život, a često i jednako nasilna, ali je drukčija, neke je više kvalitete nego sam život...zato mora susresti određene uvijete, zato toliko oduzima od nas.

  11. Dobro pitanje. Većina ustvari ni ne razmišlja o takvim stvarima pa je umetnost nešto što leži samo pojedincima. Ipak je to neki viši nivo svesti...
    Još jednom si pomešala dezene i u tome ti nema ravne :) Sve je divno i taj kaput je tako nekako moćan ;)

    1. nekako mi je baš žao kad vidim koliko rada umjetnici ulože vremena u svoja djela jer tu pribranost koja je potrebna da se postigne umjetnost nije lako postići, pa onda još cijeli život u neizvjesnosti ( Tennesse Williams je jedno cijelo ljeto živio na riži i dva manga), a na kraju je uvijek neka hajka na umjetnike kao na neradnike. Oni su nekad mi se čini i najveći radnici, jer je to (pa bilo pisanje, fotografija ili što god) i intelektualni i duhovni rad.

  25. That quote is so moving, especially I like the part about the love and betray :) You're right - life isn't the same as art, sometimes art is more painful. What about your outfit, your coat has beautiful color which suits to you and your natural beauty, Ivana, you should wear it more often :) Hope you had successful day, my dear ;)

  27. Those are very powerful words indeed. I feel as if art can be on a different level from life but we choose to put it there. Great pattern mixing in this outfit!

  28. I do not recall this quote but it is certainly provocative and thought-filling. Will have to consider this one.
