Amsterdam, Oct 7 (EFE) .- (Camera: Imane Rachidi) For Vincent van Gogh, "The Potato Eaters" (1885) was his masterpiece with a realistic message, and he prepared it with dedication, but his brother Theo believed that it was full of mistakes and no one would take it seriously in the Paris art market, so he let it dust on his mantelpiece.FOOTAGE FROM THE EXHIBITION PRESENTED AT THE VAN GOGH MUSEUM IN AMSTERDAM. IT INCLUDES STATEMENTS TO EFE DE BREGJE GERRITSE, CURATOR OF THE EXHIBITION.1. He was not looking for technical perfection with his painting, but the message he wanted to convey about peasant life, about the crude honesty of hard life in the countryside. For him, the painting was a success, and although he did not use the term ‘masterpiece’, he considered it similar to the Sunflowers, his Room or La Berceuse.2. His brother Theo was not very impressed, and received harsh criticism from his friend and painter Anthon van Rappard. But Van Gogh continued to believe in his work, for him the message transmitted was more important than the mistakes he had made in painting.3. In 1887, he wrote to his sister Guillermina: "This is my best work." That is very interesting because by then he had already gone to Paris, he had changed his working methods and his style, using more bright colors, but he still had the dark painting of Nuenen in mind.4. If even your best friend and painter Van Rappard was very enthusiastic about the work, no one would have been in Paris. It was just a very dark image, a very difficult subject, it was not a very attractive painting, especially because of all the modern art developments that were happening in Paris that he was still unaware of at the time.

Paris (France), Sep 28 (EFE) .- (Camera: Mario García Sánchez) Monks, samurai and giants enter the Quai Branly Jacques Chirac Museum in Paris this Tuesday through an exhibition that explores the mythology and practice of the Asian martial arts from classical times to pop culture.FOOTAGE FROM THE 'LAST COMBAT' EXHIBITION, AT THE QUAI BRANLY JACQUES CHIRAC MUSEUM, PARIS.SOUNDBITES FROM EXHIBITION CURATOR JULIEN ROUSSEAU AND ASIAN FILM SPECIALIST STÉPHANE DU MESNILDOT.Translations:Rousseau: "It is an exhibition that deals with the subject of martial arts, a very popular subject. Asian martial arts are now well known and are very globalized, and they go back to fiction, to the cinema of course, through figures such as Bruce Lee".Du Mesnildot: "Bruce Lee is obviously the mythical figure of martial arts. He was the one who popularized the term kung-fu. I don't think there is an actor who has had such a rich iconography as him. We can go to India, Africa, Russia Or anywhere in the world with a Bruce Lee photo and people will recognize him. So at that level I think he's comparable to Charlie Chaplin."
