Something completely different today, with a photo made a few weeks ago at the Wouter Stips exhibition in the Singermuseum in Laren. This is one of the displayed Murano glass sculptures called 'Murano Love'. Art that appears to reach for you.. And I love it! How about you?
To celebrate the 70th birthday of The Dutch painter and sculpturor Wouter Stips, the Singer Museum in Laren recently exhibited his most recent work. And I loved it! This bench in one of the rooms circled a wooden sculpture of a kissing couple. Sweet, don't you think?
In another room there was the same 'kissing couple' in colourful Murano glass. This glass is made on the Venetian island of Murano, home to a vast number of factories and a few individual artists' studios.
This is a view of the village green and puddle in the centre of Laren, a village in the province of North Holland and the oldest town of the region called 't Gooi. In the past, this puddle was used for drinking water for cattle and has the old Dutch name 'Coeswaerde'.
