Nadine Jansen - Running In The Rain

pass the time on purpose

This winter break from exhibitions I have done many things. A little truancy and briefly I did not have to write them. Among the many Thursday I went to see on Thursday evening, a very nice show in Palazzo Strozzi in Florence.

The exhibition is dedicated to the technique of trompe-l'oeil technique namely, mainly painting, where the eye is deceived, cheated of seeing something realistic or else there instead. A striking example is the picture that I linked here and a symbol of the exhibition. The guy seems really out of the picture, but in reality the play of light and shadow, painted the frame and depth are what I believe is actually flat. Besides there have also been numerous paintings, furniture and a very nice virtual section. At the end of two hours pass quickly and I am been a great diversion for making a night out =) I too am
given to the technique of deception!
