Shot in 2018 on an iPhone7. Used the Tiny Planet. Four people in front of four modern art paintings at the Carnegie Museum. It was serendipity. All were just the right distance from each other.

“Black photojournalism is not just about capturing images, it’s about preserving the truth through our own lens,” said photographer and filmmaker Emmai Alaquiva. “It’s crystallizing the human spirit through cinematic and purposeful storytelling”

The design gallery at the Carnegie Museum of Art is really great! Here's two very different bookcases.

#bookcases #design #carnegiemuseumofart
Bookcase designed by Joris Laarman. The shapes come from a snapshot of a simulation of fluid flow, laser-cut the aluminum layers, and then was assembled by hand. A Futurum bookshelf of painted wood, designed by Axel-Einar Hjorth.

RIP to Pittsburgh-born and CMU educated conceptual artist Mel Bochner (1940-2025). Here’s a 2013 pic of Helena standing in front of Bochner’s “Measurement Plant” (1969) at the Carnegie Museum of Art & a few others. Fab stuff.

Lady with Servant and Dog by Jacob Ochtervelt (Dutch) - Oil on canvas / 1671-1673 - Carnegie Museum of Art (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) #womeninart #dutchart #art #oilpainting #CarnegieMuseumofArt #artwork #JacobOchtervelt #womensart #Ochtervelt #painting #carnegie #cutedog #aristocratic #dutchartist
Ochtervelt was a Dutch genre painter active mainly in Rotterdam where this painting was completed, but from 1674 he lived in Amsterdam. He was influenced by Pieter de Hooch and through him by Vermeer. Apart from a few portraits and some early "merry company" scenes, his paintings are almost all elegant upper-class interiors, in which he showed off a skill in painting silks and satins to rival that of Ter Borch. His figures are almost always extremely refined and frequently with a hint of sensuality. In "Lady with a Servant and Dog," we are transported into a 1670s Dutch aristocrat's home detailed with fancy decor like a velvet green chair positioned near the center. In the background, other household members, a man and a woman, are in a hallway likely chatting about the young lady of the house. A portrait painting in an ornate frame hangs above the entryway, further enhancing the sense of opulence. A map on the wall is visible behind the women, adding depth. Two women are the focal point. A young, elegantly dressed woman, the lady, in a coral-colored gown with gold embellishments stands prominently. Her posture and expression suggest a demure or optimistic mood. She's holding her left hand near her chest while the second reaches out towards the playful small black and white dog with floppy ears which is pawing at the skirt of her dress. A second woman, the servant, is dressed in more modest attire—a grey or beige dress and white head covering—is next to a table covered in a beautiful dark blue cover. She appears arranging or inspecting jewelry or other items on the table. Ochtervelt has meticulously rendered textures: the fabric of the dresses, the wood of the chair and floor, the metallic shine of the jewelry box. The lighting suggests a natural light source, illuminating the scene with soft shadows and highlights. The painting evokes a sense of intimacy and domesticity while still indicating wealth and social standing.
