man ray Les Mystères du Château de Dé

symbolist, decadents, romanticism

Symbolism was a late nineteenth-century art movement of French, Russian and Belgian origin in poetry and other arts. In literature, the style had its beginnings with the publication Les Fleurs du mal (The Flowers of Evil, 1857) by Charles Baudelaire. The works of Edgar Allan Poe, which Baudelaire admired greatly and translated into French, were a significant influence and the source of many stock tropes and images. The aesthetic was developed by Stéphane Mallarmé and Paul Verlaine during the 1860s and '70s. In the 1880s, the aesthetic was articulated by a series of manifestos and attracted a generation of writers. The name "symbolist" itself was first applied by the critic Jean Moréas, who invented the term to distinguish the symbolists from the related decadents of literature and of art.
Distinct from, but related to, the style of literature, symbolism of art is related to the gothic component of Romanticism.[2]

Major design problem.

Studio on the 1.5 "st" floor. Windows facing south, good overhang created by recessed entrance to building. Awesome light, bad street visibility.


Brings me to main problem... I need something to put over my screens which allows wind to move freely into my place... Th windows themselves were easily handled with a bit of extra fabric (:.

Tried the fabric with various adhesives mechanisms mechanisms like safety pins etc look super ugly and are excruciatingly hard to weave into the screen without damage!??? Maybe retry ugh don't know people looking at my stuff !!????? Scared robbery? Don't tell my mom.
