What does 2008 hold out for you?
For many the New Year is a time for resolutions & new habits for a new year. Have you considered enriching your life with culture and art as one of those something new? Here are five ways:
1. Choose one neighborhood per month in your area - experience new food, culture and architecture.
2. Start a book club with friends. They can be an excellent way to enjoy books more and challenge your mind; they can also encourage you to read more, or to read books that you might not normally choose. In short, most people join or start their own, in order to have fun, make friends and stimulate the brain cells.
3. Seek out public art in your city. Did you know that before public art lands on a street corner it has gone through committees and competitions? Do you know who the artists are that are on your cities corners or in front of businesses. Why not made a day of it and find out!
4. Attend art festivals, museums, expos or a "Art Opening" / "Vernissages" (varnishing, from French), also known as a preview, private view or simply opening. It is usually a social event that people attend to be seen, strolling around with glasses of wine and canapés, talking to artists about the works in the exhibition.
5. For days when you are feeling not-so-creative: try movies about an artist. (Pollack, Camille Claudel, Vincent and Me or BBC documentary Simon Schama's "Power of Art", to name just a few.) |
