Kunstpalast

Today's German lesson started in our classroom on Berliner Allee where we were writing a short dialoge, practicing housing phrases ( Hier wohne ich) and listening and singing a nice song, Wir sind am Leben ( The life we are living). At 12 we grabbed a quick lunch from one of many bakeries here in Düsseldorf and walked through Hofgarten were we enjoyed the Magnolia trees blossoming. Continued to Kunstpalast where the permanent exhibition is free daytime on Thursdays. 
Our teacher Nadia gave us tasks about some of the art works and the artists, which I will go through here, so this post is basically my homework. I will write in German and Swedish as the two languages have more similarities. I am very new to German so analysis and sentences are very simple and probably contain heaps of mistakes but I have decided to just do it..


1. Lucas Cranach // Das ungleiche Paar 1530  ( Det ojämnlika paret) 
Warum ist das Paar ungleich? Was hält der Mann in seiner Hand? Warum 
Varför är paret ojämnlikt? Vad har mannen i sin hand? Varför? 
Ich finde den Mann Alt und Hässlich. Die Frauen jung und schön. 
Er hat eine Halskette in der Hand. Gib der Fraun ein Geschenk 
Jag tycker att mannen är gammal och ful. Kvinnan ung och vacker. Han har ett halsband i handen. Ge som present. 




2. Cornelis de Bisschop // Joseph und Potiphars Frau 1664 

Was will die Frau von Joseph? Beschreibe die Szene. Schreiben einen Dialog.
Vad vill Josephs fru? Beskriv scenen. Skriv en dialog
Josephs Frau möchte dass er sie sieht und Nähe komt ( lesen fick ) 
Joseph Will nicht und zieht sich zurück. Er hat angst ?

"An was willst du glauben?
Oder glaubst du an dich?
Wie oft wirst du betrogen?
Wie oft belügst du dich?
Wielviel Türen wirst du öffnen?
Welches Schloss knackst du nie?
Wie oft kannst du widerstehen?
Und wann gehst du in die knie? "

Ingen dialog men ett passande stycke från sången vi lyssnade på idag
Vad vill du tro? Eller tror du på dig själv? Hur ofta luras du? Hur ofta ljuger du för dig själv? Hur många dörrar öppnar du? Vilka lås kommer du inte att bryta dig igenom? Hur ofta kan du motstå? Och när går du på knäna?


3. Godfried Schalken // Ein Mann mit Kerze ( Mannen med stearinljuset) 1655 
Was ist das Besondere an diesem Bild?
Vad är speciellt med bilden?
Das bild vermittelt ein mysteriöses Gefühl. Er ist geheimnisvoll. Warm und gut gemacht. 


4. Peter Paul Rubens // Venus und Adonis 1610
Welche Tiere befinden sich auf dem Bild? Welche bedeutung haben sie? 
Vilka djur finns i bilden? Vilken betydelse har dom ? 

Ich sehe zwei weiße Scwänen und ein Hund

Weekly update 42/52 New fleece hats ready for the cooler weather

   

Weekly update 41/52 Time for warmer hats, nice books and last garden projects

  October and week 41 and I have been making lots of new jersey hats with fleece lining. The weather is getting colder and colder and yes hat season is here. I will during the week add new fun warm hats in my web-shop. The hats will also be sold at Christmas markets here in Örebro.  New this year for me is that I am making baby hats since I got a lot of requests. I find it hard to make baby hats because they look so small, it is hard to remember how small babies are.  Also this week big happiness over at new book release from my favorite children book illustrator Sven Nordqvist. "Vägen Hem" a wonderful book with amazing illustrations.   I have also bought and planted some new plants inspired from some nice park arrangements here in Örebro. Now lets hope that all the deer in the forrest will not eat all of these, as I forgot to check wether or not these are tasty to them. In our country-house in the forrest they tend to come and eat everything they like and they ...

Weekly update 40/52 Autumn colors and cinnamon buns

Welcome October the most colorful month of the year. Yes we are going full steam towards the darker and colder part of the year, but I have to admit it is cosy and pretty with all the colorful leaves.  I don't know if it is a new thing to have theme days where a dish or something is being celebrated. I am guessing it is a capitalistic marketing great idea so companies can make more money like Valentine day. One of those days in Sweden is 4 of October when our national bakery Cinnamon bun is being honored. I got inspired! Some time ago I bought nice linnen tea-towels which I was planning to make some print/design on and when I got inspired by cinnamon bun I knew exactly what to make. I started scribbling and drawing buns on a big sheet. When I had one or two which I thought looked ok I transfered my bun drawing to my Cricut and had it cut out on iron-on vinyl. My mum is a master in baking buns and so I made a tea-towel/baking-towel in honor of not only cinnamon buns but of my mother...
