March Theme Day - Aging

In Bed by Ron Mueck 2005

“You don't stop laughing when you grow old, you grow old when you stop laughing.”
― George Bernard Shaw

“Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence.
Summer passes and one remembers one's exuberance.
Autumn passes and one remembers one's reverence.
Winter passes and one remembers one's perseverance.”
― Yoko Ono

“Most people don't grow up. Most people age. They find parking spaces, honor their credit cards, get married, have children, and call that maturity. What that is, is aging.”
― Maya Angelou

Sticks

Woman with sticks. Sculpture by Ron Mueck

Ron Mueck exhibition at Mexico City’s ‘Antiguo Colegio de San Ildefonso‘ which offered very different insights into the mind of a unique contemporary artist.

Mueck is an Australian sculptor specialising in hyperrealism. The exhibition in Mexico City was ‘Hiperrealismo de Alto Impacto’ (High Impact Hyperrealism).

Mueck takes human and animalistic forms in all their fragility, strength and emotions and either amplifies or diminishes the size to provoke an intensified reaction.

"Talent does what it can; genius does what it must."

– Edward Bulwer-Lytton
