Notes Pour Catalogue Expo

Je m’appelle Claire Barbet J’ai seize ans. J’habite à Naucelles, près d'Aurillac.

Je suis au lycée saint joseph en seconde générale, option sciences médicosociales. L'année prochaine j'envisage une 1ère STSS, pour faire infirmière puéricultrice plus tard.

J'ai choisi d' « être » le chapeau de peter pan, car j'aimerais me retrouver dans l'histoire dans laquelle il joue. Je voudrais être comme lui, une enfant qui refuse de grandir, avoir mon petit monde imaginaire a moi, et vivre des expériences extravagantes. Je trouve ce personnage affectueux, joyeux et innocent.

J'ai choisi la couleur grise pour le fond de mon chapeau et le violet pour les points car ce sont des couleurs qui vont bien ensemble je trouve et parce que le gris montre la neutralité et donc l'innocence et le violet l'extravagance ce qui colle au portrait que je fais de Peter-Pan !

Ensuite, j'ai choisi la personne de Thierry Henry, car c'est la première célébrité qui m'est venue en tête, dès que l'on m'a posé la question « Si tu était une célébrité qui serais-tu ». De plus, Yolène et Julie, ont choisi des femmes, j'ai jugé bon de choisir un homme pour donner un peu de changement dans notre série d'œuvres. Pourquoi un homme ne porterait il pas le chapeau ?! Il faudrait y réfléchir !

The Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square.

The Fourth Plinth is in the north-west of Trafalgar Square, in central London. Built in 1841, it was originally intended for an equestrian statue but was empty for many years. It is now the location for specially commissioned artworks. In my opinion ,it's a very useful thing but to my mind it's a pity that it was empty for many years. If i was at their place, I would put a very precious statues to decorate the town and for tourists

Translation

From one ear to the other, the distance is the same as from the eyebrows to the chin. The width of the mouth is the same as that from the middle of the lips to the chin.

Leonardo da Vinci

To displace. Put the eyes where the legs are, the genitals where the face is. To contradict. To do an eye face on and one sideways. Nature does many things like me, but she hides them.

Pablo Picasso

The way the nose is rooted in the face, the way the ear is screwed into the skull, the way the lower jaw is hung, the intensity of the gaze…

Henri Matisse

By the way, I am not a prince, but someone who makes his living from his handicraft.

Peter Paul Rubens

I have finished the portrait of me that you wanted… You will not be disappointed; I have kept my promise, since I have chosen the best and most lifelike for you: you will see the difference for yourself.

Nicolas Poussin

In a head, the first thing for an artist to do is to make the eyes speak…then you move

on to how the nose sticks out. The sloping nostril is a good means of expression:

it indicates a peaceful character.

Dominiq

ue Ingres

I am getting really old, I am covered in wrinkles, and

you would not even recognize me apart from my puggish nose and my sunken eyes… What is certain is that I look my age: forty-one…

Francisco

Goya

The flesh only has its true colour in the

open air, especially in the sunlight. The local complexion must be transparent; though if halftoned it gives the illusion, in principle, of the blood under the

skin.

Eugène Delacroix
