On June 29, 1577, artist Peter Paul Rubens was born...bring beautiful art to both the Reformed and the Catholic tradition.
He paints in a style very close to the pop surrealist artists from America, especially close to Joe Coleman's style. He is interested to reveale the decandence of the contemporary society making complex, vibrant and extremely colourful paintings which make him to be like a modern Jeronimus Bosch. Dorian X has a passion for Flemish masters (Bosch, Bruegel), and the miniatusrists. He adores classical subjects, both mythical and agiographic. That's why the Apocalyptic imaginary can be a constant source of inspiration to him.

Nicolas Gombert (bc 1495; dc 1560) Flemish composer. Gombert was one of the leading composers of his generation, and one of the most technically advanced composers of polyphonic vocal music in Western history. Highly regarded by his contemporaries as a great innovator, he favoured dense textures and often used dark, rich timbres. He used pervading imitation more consistently than anyone of his own or an earlier generation, creating textures in which the voices tend to be equally important. Gombert was born in a village in Flanders, in the vicinity of Lille, now a part of France. He later became choir master to the most prestigious court in Europe, that of Emperor Charles V in Spain. His position allowed him to travel throughout the continent, together with the Imperial entourage. Contemporaries suggested that Gombert had been a student of Josquin Des Préz, but the details of this possible association are unknown. Gombert's compositions are entirely vocal, some for ensembles of up to twelve distinct voices. As opposed to his Italian contemporaries, who had begun work on a more animated and harmonically-oriented idiom, Gombert kept entirely within the domain of strict counterpoint and in fact seemed to hold the new musical developments of the time in low regard. His contrapuntal language is based on that of Josquin, but taken to the next level of complexity. A substantial volume of Gombert's compositions survive, including masses, a large number of motets, secular chansons ...

Josquin Desprez (c1440~1521) Franco-Flemish composer Josquin Desprez, one of the greatest masters of the Renaissance, lived a life steeped in mystery for present-day scholars. However, the fact that he was well respected by his contemporaries is sure. The great 16th century printer of music, Petrucci, devoted as many as three books to the works of Josquin. No other composer was allotted more than one book by Pettrucci, and publications devoted to a single composer were extremely rare. Josquin's Ave Maria deftly alternates between imitative sections of two, three and four voices, imbuing the work with a sense of intimacy and tenderness. At the final couplet, where the text is in the first person singular for the only time, Josquin chooses a simple chordal setting, giving the effect of the four voices declaming as one, "O Mother of God, remember me"
The unspeakable banality of recent film is of three kinds. There is the sensationalism of American studio production and its derivatives in European (and alas, even Asian and Indian) film. There is the stark cliché of the Bon-Bonne School, Wim Wenders meeting Robert Altman and kissing him fondly, especially in its Australian and Cambodian forms. (Do you listen, Peter Falk? Can you hear the beating of the drums, Ang Lee?) Finally there is the French réactionnaire, the impressive and aggressive oeuvre of cinema vérite colliding with the surrealist theater. This last school is of course boredom as art, ennui as interest, and angst as anti-catharsis. And at the apex of this genre stands the towering figure of Père Loutre, l'enfant terrible of the medium. His latest work, opening tonight, is his most mature film, by far, and it is impossible to overpraise. It would be bourgeois and Philistine to suggest that it is about anything, but it is about a man and time, a work laden with the saturated hum-drum of experience and the colossal weight of one's unimportant lack of interest in one's unimportance. It is unashamedly political (throughout the work a trash-can sits in one corner of a kitchen); it is sweeping in its denunciations of art that has gone before (there is a fly in the film). Loutre has never been one to let a chance for subtlety slip away, and with a running time of six hours and sixteen minutes, there are plenty of chances here: three, to be precise. The mise-en ...
Ockeghem was one of the most respected composers of the fifteenth century, and along with Guillaume Dufay & Josquin Desprez, one of the most influential composers of the early Renaissance. Ockeghem was born in the French-speaking province of Hainaut, in the town of Saint-Ghislain, according to recent definitive research. It had at one time been surmised that he was Flemish, but in any event, all of modern Belgium was then within the Duchy of Burgundy. Estimates for the year of his birth vary considerably from 1400 to c.1430, but written sources from the period indicate that he was a very old man by the time of his death in 1497. He was premier chaplain to three kings of France, as well as holding the prestigious position of treasurer at the great cathedral and monastery of St. Martin de Tours. During his lifetime, Ockeghem was known for his personal refinement and fine bass voice. After his death, a famous poem by Guillaume Cretin (set to music by Josquin Desprez) praised his character, skill, and influence. He was long identified as one of the fathers of Renaissance music, his influence finally fading only years after his death. Ockeghem's surviving musical output is relatively small, comprising a mere handful of motets, several masses, and a couple of dozen secular chansons. His style is marked by a careful handling of vocal ranges in a primarily four-voice texture, and an emphasis on complex and expressive bass lines. This emphasis on lower textures opened up a new ...

Heinrich Isaac (c.1450-1517) was the next most widely known of Josquin's contemporaries, and a prolific composer in all genres of the period, both sacred and secular. Isaac was apparently born in the Flemish-speaking portion of the Low Countries, perhaps in Flanders or Brabant. Although some of his music appears in manuscripts copied in the mid-1470s, the earliest biographical reference dates from 1484, naming him as a court composer at Innsbruck. By 1485, he was in Florence, where he served the Medicis, and where he married a Florentine woman before 1490. His position as a married man was unusual among the Franco-Flemish masters. The Medicis were banished from Florence in 1494, and by 1496, Isaac was in the employ of the Emperor Maximilian I. In the Emperor's service, Isaac traveled throughout Germany, and is generally credited with a seminal musical influence on that country. In 1515, he returned to Florence, as a sort of partial retirement, and continued to compose as commissioned by the Emperor's court until he died there in 1517. Isaac was described as an old man, and may have been the oldest of the major Franco-Flemish composers of his generation. Isaac's output is among the largest and most varied of the era. He wrote seventeen mass cycles in typical Franco-Flemish style, as well as nineteen cycles based directly on plainchant and intended for alternation with chant or organ. The latter were apparently intended for the German tradition, for which he also wrote the ...

Isaac was apparently born in the Flemish-speaking portion of the Low Countries, perhaps in Flanders or Brabant. Although some of his music appears in manuscripts copied in the mid-1470s, the earliest biographical reference dates from 1484, naming him as a court composer at Innsbruck. By 1485, he was in Florence, where he served the Medicis, and where he married a Florentine woman before 1490. His position as a married man was unusual among the Franco-Flemish masters. The Medicis were banished from Florence in 1494, and by 1496, Isaac was in the employ of the Emperor Maximilian I. In the Emperor's service, Isaac traveled throughout Germany, and is generally credited with a seminal musical influence on that country. In 1515, he returned to Florence, as a sort of partial retirement, and continued to compose as commissioned by the Emperor's court until he died there in 1517. Isaac was described as an old man, and may have been the oldest of the major Franco-Flemish composers of his generation. Isaac's output is among the largest and most varied of the era. He wrote seventeen mass cycles in typical Franco-Flemish style, as well as nineteen cycles based directly on plainchant and intended for alternation with chant or organ. The latter were apparently intended for the German tradition, for which he also wrote the ...

The elegant refinement of paintings by the French Baroque master Nicolas Poussin (1594-1665) have often been held in contrast to the overflowing expressiveness and especially the use of color by the Flemish painter Peter Paul Rubens. During the mid to late 17th century in the French Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture this dichotomy gave rise to artists who either saw themselves as Poussinists or Rubenists. For Poussin disegno, or "drawing", may well have been supreme. However I ...
