written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Over the years, rubber ducks have worn all kinds of clothing. From the most crazy professions to the fictional characters of the moment, these toys have always innovated in their clothing. The Fernando González store joins the fashion and invites island artists to decorate their art.

It seems that rubber ducks never go out of style and in La Laguna they are completely the order of the day thanks to an initiative that has combined solidarity with artistic creation. Pathomania is the name of this project that started this month of April and has proposed to put the most original ducks on the windows of the iconic Laguna decoration store. Fernando Gonzalez. But the ducks don’t stop there and promise to visit the most famous places on the Island to take the most diverse pictures.

Fernando Gonzalez Over the years it has become one of the most iconic stores in the historic center of La Laguna. It is not in vain that it has been open for more than 70 years and has been adapting to different levels and trends in the world of decoration, household goods and gifts. For many years, the trade has had a special relationship with rubber ducks, which have more than once crossed the shop windows and the hearts and shelves of many of their customers.

Now, the store wanted to go one step further and has decided to share its passion for these little ducks with a group of artists who will, independently, give their unique vision of these decorative items. So, from this month of April until the end of the year, every 30 days a new creator will decorate their own duck and at the end of the year an auction will be held for them. All the money will go towards collaborating with him Teidela, the non-profit association for the fight against ALS in the Canary Islands.

The multifaceted artist from La Palma Fran Pedrianes is behind this campaign, which happened to him a few months after he was in charge of the social media accounts of the La Laguna store. Innovation in the shop windows and giving a new opportunity to island creators are the reasons that led Pedrianes to start this adventure. These ducks that are the star of Fernando González’s solidarity campaign are larger than those that are usually sold and are about 20 centimeters long and about 18 centimeters high.

Jennifer Doan is a multidisciplinary creator from Tenerife who is launching this project she has chosen collage to shape Doloresthe first work of art Pathomania.

Her approach and ability to combine different media has brought her to the world of contemporary art. He makes sure that he always stays learning, challenging the boundaries of traditional art while exploring new ways of expression and immersing himself in his artistic practice. Therefore, outside of her role as a psychologist, she also develops purely creative work and even tattoos with the hand technique sometimes. He also sells some of his creations, such as prints, in various stores.

When they proposed to establish the project Pathomania, do not hesitate because, in addition, “he has a great goal”, that is to collaborate with the Teidela society. your duck, Doloresmade from recycled materials, and to give it shape she first applied the primer, “with a lot of patience,” says the artist, which is why she decided to call it this.

She admits that she didn’t know for a while how to approach this project, because she was the first participant to participate and that’s why the duck “has had several dresses that don’t she liked it.” Finally, she chose to work in the way that made her feel more comfortable, using glue and recycled paper which allowed him to immerse himself completely in the process which, he says, “I really liked.” Now, she encourages other artists to participate in this project because of its closeness and wants to see the final collection that the project will offer at the end of the year, when it is clear that prospective buyers will have problems finding their favorite duck.

Rafael Prieto’s Eclectic NYC Loft Featured in ‘Together Over Time’ Exhibition at Emma Scully Gallery

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com April 11, 2024

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Installation created with Kritika Manchanda for the exhibition “Together Over Time”, at the Emma Scully Gallery.

In Rafael Prieto’s living room in New York, an antique-style statue sits alongside sculptural “Akari” lamps by Isamu Noguchi and a pendant light designed by the master of the place and Loup Sarion for Marrow. DWR (Design Within Reach) table. Painting by Pedro Friedeberg.

On the counter of Russ & Daughters, a well-known caterer on the Lower East Side, elegant Casa Bosques chocolate bars with Chiapas cocoa beans await gourmets. It’s a few steps away, in the loft of Rafael Prieto, founder and artistic director of the Savvy design studio, in TriBeCa, that they were designed. A place where form and content merge organically on a daily basis. The idea of combining professional and private life manifested itself in the fall of 2020, when the Mexican returned to New York after a long forced absence. “When I moved here, a lot of people had left the neighborhood. Little by little, I got to know it, as well as its inhabitants who often live and work at the same address. Many galleries have opened their doors in the surrounding area over the past two years. I like to escape there to think or, on the contrary, to clear my head and let myself be surprised by discoveries”explained Rafael.

In the living room, coffee table designed by Rafael Prieto, sofa from the 1970s, chairs by Gerrit Rietveld, wooden and antique fabric seat designed with Valerie Namé Bolaño, founder of Spoliā, and antique-inspired statue. Sculptural linen and steel lamps created by Rafael and his companion Loup Sarion under the Marrow label.

Apart from some minor work in the kitchen to prepare the chocolate of its confidential label Forest House, he has kept the premises, which he rents, as is. The loft, surrounded by large windows and punctuated by cast iron columns, has the charm of 19th century New York industrial buildings. Its high ceilings and generous volumes invite you to contemplate the designer’s collectibles and creations, such as the works of his first solo exhibition “Together Over Time”, at the Emma Scully Gallery, last spring. A poetic juxtaposition of furniture, sculptures and lighting, including the linen and steel “Marrow” model, imagined with his companion, the artist Loup Sarion. We also find this sculptural lamp, with lines inspired by bones saved from dinners, almost everywhere in the loft, available in different versions.

In the lounge area, sculpture in the shape of Sarion Wolf’s nose.

A garden stone table echoes the cast iron columns of the loft and a molding of the building that houses it.

In this avant-garde interior, where design icons (signed Gerrit Rietveld, Ettore Sottsass, Isamu Noguchi, etc.) rub shoulders with antique or surrealist sculptures, nothing is premeditated. “It reflects my evolution through my experiences and my travels. The dialogue between different styles and eras is due to the chance of life”, reports the esthete behind several sets in New York and Mexico. “If I have never actively sought out a piece of design, leaving it rather come to me, it is a little different for art. I constantly visit galleries, museums and consult a lot of specific works. So I can’t help but go in search of works that aroused emotions in me”, he specifies.

Stones were placed throughout the loft like sculptures. One of them serves as a nightstand.

Corner reserved for Studio Savvy with packaging of Casa Bosques chocolate bars on the wall.

The lounge area, close to the ground, echoes the traditional Japanese lifestyle that conquered Rafael during a stay in the Land of the Rising Sun eight years ago. “Japan is one of my main sources of inspiration. We encounter so much beauty and humility there”, he observes. “Sitting close to the ground also helps me keep in touch with reality, because I have an annoying tendency to have my head in the air.”, he adds. The designer likes to receive his friends there informally for festive meals or creative exchanges. Here, people and ideas come and go freely.

James Webb Space Telescope Captures Stunning Images of Supernova Remnant Cas A in Holiday-Themed Collaboration with White House

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com December 13, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

The James Webb Space Telescope captured images of the remains of a supernova star.

The star, called Cassiopeia A (Cas A), shines brightly about 11,000 light-years from Earth, making it look like an ornament more suitable for a Christmas tree.

NASA images show the star’s inner dust envelope, which looks like fire smoke and emits bright orange and red colors, but the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) shows Cas A remnants reflecting the holiday spirit.

The Cas A image comes as part of a collaboration with the White House to “display the magic, wonder and joy” of the holiday season, NASA said in a press release.

To: You, From: The Universe 🎁

This stunning new Webb image is a gift from a past star. In near-infrared light, supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A) resembles a shiny ornament. Embedded within gas from the star are the materials for new stars & planets: pic.twitter.com/vzzaWrzPBA

— NASA Webb Telescope (@NASAWebb) December 11, 2023

The NIRCam image shows a more detailed view of Cas A, which gives off a visible purple color that resembles a diamond, but is actually an ionized gas.

Nobody puts baby in a corner.

Well…except “Baby Cas A.” So-called because it looks like a mini-Cas A, Baby Cas A is the blob in the bottom right corner. Light from the supernova has reached and is warming the distant dust within it, creating its intriguing dust pattern. pic.twitter.com/vVbZKpSLKJ

— NASA Webb Telescope (@NASAWebb) December 11, 2023

Cas A exploded about 340 years ago, leaving behind “filaments that look like tiny glass shards,” Danny Milisavljevic, of Purdue University, who led the research team, said in a NASA press release.

The team named Cas A the Green Monster because of the presence of a green ring running along the right side of the star’s central cavity.

This is the first time NASA has taken a high-resolution image of Cas A, which was “previously inaccessible at these wavelengths,” and shows details of the star’s expanding edges colliding with the gas it released before it exploded.

The discovery of Cas A showed the smallest known remnant of an exploding supernova star in our galaxy, and by monitoring the dust content, NASA said it could help astronomers understand how planets were created.
