Gorges Seurat (1859-1891) ist beruuml;hmt fuuml;r seine auszlig;erordentliche Technik des Pointillismus. Er war ein Maler; dessen einzigartige Zusammenfuuml;hrung von Kunst und Wissenschaft atemberaubende Kunstwerke hervorbrachte. Wenngleich Seurats komplexe Bildkompositionen Jahre fuuml;r die Fertigstellung in Anspruch nehmen konnten; sollten die vollendeten Werke den Betrachter in ihrer wissenschaftlichen Genauigkeit und kuuml;nstlerischen Komplexitauml;t beeindrucken. Und so gehouml;rt sein Un Dimanche Apregrave;s-Midi agrave; lrsquo;Icirc;le de la Grande Jatte(Sonntagnachmittag auf der Insel La Grande Jatte) zu den bekanntesten Kunstwerke des 20. Jahrhunderts.

0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Fun photos; barely adequate text.By PhilaBobThere are some great images here; some of which Ive never seen anywhere else. Mr. Spector does cover quite a few buildings in the area bounded by 11th; Broad; Pine and Chestnut Streets; commonly known as Philadelphias Gayborhood. Despite the proliferation of rainbow street signs there; (there are 68; did he not notice a single one?); he avoids any mention at all of any part many of the sites played in Philadelphias complex and important LGBT history. I know its difficult to cover any topic in depth in the few lines allotted; but this is a serious omission. It makes me wonder if hes actually been to any of the sites hes described or knows anything about the neighborhoods they are in.
