"More
nonsense. Now it's up to Van Gogh. Just a new book
that speculates about his last days of life, whether
he committed suicide or was accidentally killed.
I don’t have read the book, but I have read some
notes like one where someone asks Vincent, who was
bleeding in his bed, if he had wanted to commit
suicide and he said “I think so”. And for some
persons this is a enough reason to write a book
because this answer might indicate that he did not
pull the trigger.
This nonsense, and others cited in the book,
justifies, without shame, to raise a new plot that
will surely give a lot of money, because it is
likely to be after converted into a film. Tangle and
dig no matter what it takes, without the least
respect in the life of someone who gave everything
for nothing. It's disgusting this hobby to create a
hieroglyph
which gives
morbid
fascination and money for a long time. It
seems to me outrageous disrespect to the generous
genius.
This is the same with Leonardo's Mona Lisa. Come and
see what we invented now or what we can discover in
the hackneyed, heavy and nothing enigmatic smile of
Donna. Hey, look, I think this hair of his hair is
like a cross of a rare sect and this union of points
that I see is the trail of a powerful secret means
that Leonardo knew, even then, the existence of
neutrinos. And on and on, nonsense after another, no
matter if the Mona Lisa is a mediocre picture
(beyond the use of "sfumato" as innovation),
mediocre, yes, in its historical context and others
it can have a bit interest but plastically is not
too good. Never mind. They have already managed to
become it an icon based in chatter and nonsense, and
then it begins to have an interest, quite apart from
its true quality. As the image of Marilyn in pop
art. Nothing more. Poor Marilyn, how many people are
still profiting from his image and his death. I am
convinced Da Vinci would be saddened about all these
matters.
Or Mozart. He and his death. Salieri and Mozart
enmeshed in a tangle mesh tarnishing forever the
image of the great man, making him look like drivel,
like a clown in the, otherwise extraordinary, film
of Milos Forman's, "Amadeus". It is always the same:
to make art or intrigue whatever it costs. I always
say that art does not know morality but that does
not entitle us to crucify dogs or to make intrigues
and cabals on humans who only made to magnify our
spirit giving it all they've got.
I am very sad about people do not stop to remove the
ears, bones, misery and privacy of these martyrs of
art.
Please, leave them all alone.
