Artblog.world is a blog based in Hamburg. Since late 2021 the blog appears on the net. It will publish articles in English and German covering four main areas of art: artists, artworks, education, exhibitions.
The artist section will introduce artists from different periods from classical to contemporary, male and female. An artist is engaged in creativity by using different materials. We might define an artist as a cultural creator; someone who can leave a mark on the development of creativity or the arts. An artist is a person whose fruits of creativity are the cultural heritage of mankind, someone whose art can influence the souls and minds of people. These biographies are usually short but include important areas of the life of the artists. Sometimes letters of artists will be published to make the readers familiar with the mind of the artists about a particular artwork or a special period of their life.
Another section of the blog is related to artworks. A work of art, artwork, art piece, piece of art or art object is an artistic creation of aesthetic value. In a narrower sense, this category includes only works of artistic creativity. The concept of „work of art“, according to the general scientific definition of the term „art“, can include any skillfully executed products of human labor (material culture), the meaning of which goes beyond the boundaries of utility, that is, having constructive, aesthetic or artistic properties, or a combination of both. In this case, the criterion for a work of art is the ability to evoke an emotional response in many people. Thus, the concept of a work of art becomes extremely broad, including artistic creation as one of the “modes of art”. This section familiarises the viewers with significant artworks in history, those which have had a compact on art history and those which show a change. The artworks of contemporary artists are not excluded in this section.

Chagall is one of the most famous artists in France in the 20th century. His work has characteristics of surrealism and neo-primitivism.
Chagall was born on 7 July 1887 in Russia, in a Jewish family. He was brought up in the peace and tenderness of his mother, who taught him to read and to love the Bible and people. Vitebsk remained in Chagall’s imagination as the naive paradise of childhood, and the painter represented it in many paintings, in his youth and also later.
He is considered one of the major French painters of the 19th century, and one of the most important inventors of modern art along with Klimt, Munch, Seurat and van Gogh.

I did not write to you last month, I had nothing new to tell you and could only have repeated myself, and besides I did not have the courage to do so. Then when the letter carrier came a little later, there was again nothing from Chaudet. Since my health is completely restored, and I therefore no longer have a chance of dying a natural death, I wanted to kill myself.
Auguste Renoir painted two similar versions of Blonde Bather (La baigneuse blonde) in 1881 and 1882, both of which are now published as private collections. The 1882 version is seen above on the left. The model was Aline Charigot, who later became Renoir’s wife. Inspired by Renaissance paintings (especially Raphael’s frescoes) in Italy in 1881, these works are clearly different in style from Renoir’s earlier works. Some commentators have called these works beautiful, while others have called them vulgar.
