Trail of Myth with James Davis Master of Wines

Posted by www.rollinginbudapest.com in Uncategorized. Tagged: , , , , , , , , .

James Davis MW is one of the most respected wine professionals in the world. He is one of fewer than 500 people worldwide who holds the notoriously tricky-to-pass Master of Wine qualification.

Below sharing released press riport from the Public Relations and Communications Agency Hungary

“What Does a Master of Wine Truly Know?

“The profession of Master of Wine (MW) is wrapped in layers of myth. These so-called Jedi
Knights of wine are said to possess the power to launch a bottle’s market value into the
stratosphere — and to reach their ranks, one must endure a grueling journey few dare to take.
But perhaps the truest definition of being a Master of Wine is that this is the most intimate
connection one can have with wine and through wine, with life itself. It is a vocation that
blends philosophy, art, and science … who better to guide us through this world than
internationally recognized MW James Davis?
“Wine – as one of the most authentic beverages of humankind – is naturally linked to the
discovery of cultural values, to travel, and to the building of human connections. And for
someone who loves all of these, there could hardly be a more ideal profession than being a
Master of Wine.” This is exactly how James Davis, a British wine expert who earned the MW
title in 2013, found himself drawn into the field. As he explains, beyond his deep love of
wine, what drove him most was the challenge — the idea that through persistent effort, he
could attain a title reserved for only the few.
“The knowledge related to wine is far richer and more complex than one might initially think,
as it encompasses a deep understanding of the wine-producing regions, the people who live
there, and even the very soil that nourishes the wines. Of course the true Master of Wine also
understands how wine interacts with culture, how it influences language … and how language,
in turn, influences wine,” the expert emphasizes.
“In this sense, the doctors of the wine world can rightfully be seen as sorcerers or wine
whisperers – yet the truth is that their expertise is grounded in objective knowledge. At the
Institute of Masters of Wine, students receive not only cultural and philosophical education,
but also acquire extensive knowledge in economics, trade, wine technology, and other
relevant fields. Many of them later go on to apply their expertise not only in supporting
wineries and retail chains, but also as educators in prestigious higher education institutions,
teaching students interested in winemaking or wine marketing.
James, for example, teaches at the globally renowned Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET)
and at the Institute of Masters of Wine itself. He also occasionally lectures at Dijon Business
School. Yet for him, the true beauty of his role lies in sharing this complex, nuanced
knowledge with others, helping people discover the true value of wine, and more
importantly, what makes it such an extraordinary drink.
In today’s rapidly changing and often uncertain world, James Davis believes it’s more
important than ever to highlight what is authentic and enduring. His craft gives him the
unique opportunity to do just that, working every day with one of humanity’s most original
and flavorful creations: wine.” End of riport.

By-the-way furthermore to the a/m riport … The Institute of Masters of Wine (IMW) has released the list of wines and accompanying questions from the 2025 Master of Wine (MW) exam, which was completed by students in centres around the world last week in London.

In a nutshell about “The Institute of Masters of Wine” (IMW). The IMW is a membership organisation with an exceptional international reputation. For more than 70 years, its members – the Masters of Wine (MWs) – have been at the forefront of leadership and expertise in the world of wine. The IMW’s mission is to foster excellence, interaction and learning across all sectors of the global wine community. MWs prove their comprehensive understanding of wine by passing the MW exam, recognised worldwide for its rigour and exacting standards. In addition to passing the exam, members must sign the code of conduct before they are entitled to use the initials MW. This requires them to uphold the highest standards of commercial conduct within the industry. Today, there are 422 Masters of Wine working in 30 countries. The membership encompasses winemakers, sommeliers, buyers, journalists, shippers, consultants, viticulturalists, academics, educators and more. There are 346 students from 43 countries in the 2024-25 MW study programme. The IMW works with 38 supporters and four research and industry associates, who help promote the IMW’s mission. The five principal supporters are Austrian Wine, AXA Millésimes, Champagne Bollinger, Constellation Brands and VSPT Wine Group.”

Lauper will also be joined by special guests at the performances, who will be announced at a later date. Cyndi Lauper’s farewell tour is directed by Brian Burke and created and designed by BrianBurkeCreative and DX7 Design.

Cyndi Lauper has already sold more than 50 million records worldwide. Her iconic voice, punk look and captivating live shows catapulted her to international fame. Her debut album, She’s So Unusual, won her a Grammy Award for Best New Artist, and she became the first woman to have four top 5 singles from her debut album, including the anthemic “Girls Just Want To Have Fun.”

Lauper has released ten more studio albums, including classics such as “Time After Time” and “True Colors.” In 2013, she won the Academy Award for Best Original Score (Music and Lyrics) for the musical “Kinky Boots.” She is also a tireless activist, campaigning for the underprivileged, especially women, people living with HIV and the LGBTQ community.

The documentary will give viewers a glimpse into a celebrated and groundbreaking artist who has left a remarkable legacy through her art. In celebration of the tour and the film, Lauper recently placed her hand and footprints in a ceremony outside the TCL Chinese Theater in Los Angeles.

My comment … Remarkable how my favorit from wayback as she makes “Drove all Night” original by Roy Orbison, droving her own with amazing holding high notes for almost 10-15 seconds, while adding vibrato and changing the pitch. Here you go from the ’80s … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2y1TZXc5DiY&ab_channel=CyndiLauperVEVO

Exhibition on Screen: I, Claude Monet – Cinemas Nationalwide

Posted by www.rollinginbudapest.com in Uncategorized. Tagged: , , , , , , , , .

I - Claude Monet

Cultural History Documentary – 2017.

Directed and produced by Phil Grabsky

Length of the film:1h 30m

From October, the iconic episode of Phil Grabsky’s highly successful British art and cultural history documentary series, Exhibition on Screen: I, Claude Monet, will be out in cinemas nationwide.
From Paris and Le Havre to London and Venice, filmmaker Phil Grabsky goes on a journey to profile Claude Monet as he uses 2500 letters written by the celebrated artist to gain an intimate insight into his life.
Phil Grabsky’s film, made in 2019, recalls the life of one of the world’s most beloved painters in the master’s own words. Using letters and personal testimonies, it gives an insight into the life of the man who in 1872 painted the painting that gave the name to the Impressionism style (Impression, the Rising Sun), and who in the 19th century he was the most influential creator of the end of the century. A story about a man who dazzled audiences with his visuals while suffering from depression and suicidal thoughts. However, his passion for painting, horticulture, his famous garden in Giverney and his humor also showed his love of life.

The film, shot in Paris, London, Normandy and Venice, provides a broad immersion in the work of one of the most popular painters of Western art.

“Not many people can tell their personal story 92 years after his death! However, Claude Monet wrote letters throughout his life – very intimate letters that he sent to friends and family. The writings collected here and read by Henry Goodman form the basis of the documentary, which follows the artist from his early youth to the last months of his life. For fans of his paintings who want to know more about the man behind them, this is fascinating material! And in general, it provides a rare insight into the small details of nineteenth-century life.

Grabsky takes us to many of the sites where Monet worked and allows us to see them side by side with the paintings, allowing us to appreciate the painter’s achievements on a new level. We will also briefly visit the garden that he laid out in his later years and see his famous bridge and water lilies. Dozens of paintings are used throughout the film to illustrate his life and work.

The film is distributed by Pannonia Entertainment Ltd.

The Explosion of Digital Vincent Van Gogh Exhibits @ Budapest – February, 2. 2024.

Posted by www.rollinginbudapest.com in Uncategorized. Tagged: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , .

 Get to know his ideas and ambitions whilst walking into Van Gogh’s Digital World! 

Van Gogh experienced life and the world intensely and wanted his art to portray the great themes of life …  such as hope, love, anxiety and suffering. Explore the on-going search of an artist who was constantly trying to improve himself. In this way, you get a new view of an artist you thought you knew.

Before entering the realm of Van Gogh at the press opening, Dudi Bercovici – Hadran Events managing director, organizer of the exhibition, said Q.: “We know and understand the preferences of to-day’s generation, we know that the accelerated world has developed new habits in the field of cultural consumption as well. We trust that this production will also bring young people closer to art” … and so entered the fields of Van Gogh where it affects all the senses.
 
“If this is what it takes to attract young people, and perhaps to research van Gogh’s original works of art, then it was already worth it. After all, in the 21st century, people visit exhibitions differently, they have completely different needs and interests. And Van Gogh’s art is such a work of life , which is very special both in its use of colors and in its choice of themes,” emphasized art historian Blanka Bán
 
Here is what to expect at this unique display firsthand…
 
An expansive 20000 square meters … special light and sound effects … were able to literally walk into the paintings and immersive 360 degree taking to a journey of discovery on to one of the artist’s profilict period. Instead, of visitors rolling around artworks at an exhibition, these superb arts were floating around us, brought to life by state-of-the-art 4K technology.
 
Having watched the short film about the Starry Night, uncovering amazing many shades of the same colour was breathtaking even knowing he was color blind. Transition to the next path, the multimedia and audiovisual experience keeps getting more intense. Van Gogh’s most iconic art pieces float across the walls and floor. Time to relax … sit back on a deck chairs with lily pattern, really worth to enloose yourself watching the flowting animation of Lilies. Van Gogh developed an idealused conception of the Japanese artist which led him to the Yellow House at Arles and his attemot to form an utopian art colony there with Paul Gauguin. Showing his honour to the artist’s love everything Japanese he painted Japanese Flower Tea … (see slideshow painting) Also on the pathway on the street  The Yellow House, the enchanting neighbourhood of Café Terrace at Night or the serene wheatfield definitely unmissable. Individuals may use their skills in coloring with crayon two different sheets of  Van Gogh’s  paintings within their own artistic imagination.
 
Even though the virtual reality (VR) was a bit foggy (tried to watch it twice) being uncertain experience related that although turning our heads around to adjust the sharpness of the VR glasses, unfortunately we got a blurry picture  … a lady there said to hand-hold the VR device left-right… up-down to see clearer … it unfortunetely did not work … of course, this may only reflect the state before the official opening, and the visitors will have better luck seeing a clear picture.  Anyway walking along by (VR)  Van Gogh’s ambition to paint farmers, his search for colour and his personal interpretation of nature was deeply emotional. Mind you this spot to visit comes with extra additional fee.

The Life of Van Gogh … Vincent Van Gogh was born in Holland in 1853 and died in France in 1890. From a young age, he was preoccupied with social problems and devoted himself to supporting the poor and the sick. He got real inspiration for painting while drawing the life of miners working in the Walloon Borinage region in the late 1870s. He was unstable throughout his life, tormented by mental illnesses (epilepsy, schizophrenia), and had more and more frequent severe seizures. His paintings bear traces of his unstable, tormented personality. Excessive smoking, alcohol consumption and fatigue aggravated his health condition, and one night he cut off his own ear after a fight. After that, he decided to commit himself to the psychiatric hospital in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. Later, at the age of 37, he committed suicide. The painter who sold only one painting during his life, have had now became a favorit of millions … a rock star in the art world.

 
Van Gogh’s digital art exhibition has captivated audiences having dazzled over 8.5 million visitors across 80 cities worldwide for instance: Australia, New-Zealand, New Orleans, Washington DC, Jakarta, Dublin, Tel-Aviv, Seoul, London, Miami, Philly – USA, Houston, Las Vegas, Beijiin and soforth … now arrived to Budapest.
 
Crowned the winner of both Best Exhibition Experience and Best Immersive Experience at the prestigious Eventex 2023 Awards and ranked among the 12 best immersive experiences globally.
 
The multimedia exhibition Van Gogh –  The Immersive Experience  awaiting visitors in the 
Closing date: September, 1. 2024 .
 
Recommended to all those who are not just curious what an exhibition show to to-day’s generation is about,  withinthe new kind of cultural consumption.  Above all, recommend mostly to those who want an easy-to-consume content instead of belong to the regular audience of classical fine art exhibitions.

“Whispering Land” – Solidarity Connect Israeli Art with Hungarian Art – Contemporary Art Exhibition.

Exhibition display: December, 7. 2023 – January, 7. 2024., @ Budapest

Upon invitation to the exhibition’s press launch in addition to seven major cities, the Jerusalem Biennale can also be seen in Budapest at the Museum of Ethnography – District, XIV., 35. Dózsa György Road.
“This exhibition is a stands solidarity for Israel,” said György Szegő –  artistic director of the Műcsarnok, adding that the Jerusalem Biennale is an important venue for fine arts life. Attila Turi – president of the Hungarian Academy of Arts, recalled that the 6th Jerusalem Biennale did not open on the planned November date this year due to the war that broke out as a result of the terrorist attack on October 7.

Because of the war, the 6th Jerusalem Biennale, announced under the title Iron Flock (Vasnyáj), had to be postponed, but presumably in 2024, sometime during  Springtime will be take place. Budapest just as other big cities hosting in one of the thirty-five exhibitions. Under adventurous circumstances, in a very short time, the exhibition was completed, which included the landscapes of the failed Jerusalem Biennale, supplemented by the works of Hungarian artists.

Getting art objects out of Israel now, during the wartime, was absolutely less easy, as less planes took-off with a smaller capacity, and the documents of the shipment  in a way got mixed up its way. Rami Ozeri – founding director of the biennale, flew to Budapest from Israel so that the art objects could be “exhibited”. The president of the MMA said that one part of the biennale’s projects will be presented in seven big cities: in addition to Budapest, New York, London, Rome, Turin, Los Angeles and Buenos Aires. This creates a kind of cultural network, he added.

At the exhibition will feature the works of 20 Israeli and 18 Hungarian artists with the participation of three Israeli and three Hungarian curators. The exhibition presents traditional and alternative, contemporary interpretations of landscape depiction, from plein-air painting to symbolic expressions. The works presented in thematic groups reflect each other and create a comprehensive, contemporary art landscape, Attila Turi – MMA president explained Q.: “The opportunity to show the power of art in this way, despite the depressing events, strengthens the connection between the culturally diverse Jerusalem and the city’s supportive community around the world.”
“The request to implement the exhibition came in a terrible situation, it was clear that we had to make this gesture,” said Lajos Kemecsi – director general of the Museum of Ethnography and added Q.:  The institution is no stranger to hosting such an exhibition, a contemporary exhibition can still be seen in the museum.  The short deadline was a challenge, but it proved the preparedness and willingness to cooperate.  László Koppány Csáji – director of the MMA’s Art Theory and Methodological Research Institute, recalled that at the beginning of November, when the invitation arrived, it seemed almost impossible to create an international exhibition of this weight. With the exhibition, we express our solidarity and connect Israeli art with Hungarian art, said the director. He pointed out that the works of art displayed in the 800 square meter space of the Ethnographic Museum reflect to each other.
Curator Vera Pilpoul from Italy, who organized the exhibition “Behind the Mask” in the small town of Casale Monferrato – Italy, signed in online at the press conference. She said: the theme of the accepted exhibition was the Book of Esther, and Israeli and Italian artists presented themselves. The large-scale works had to be reproduced on site, alongside the contemporary works, the ancient Scroll of Esther was also visible, added the curator.
Tibor Munkácsy Award-winning painter Iski Kocsis, one of the curators and director of the Budapest exhibition, spoke about how the Israeli and Hungarian works can be seen in 5 thematic groups in Budapest, reflecting on the landscape, the land, the homeland. The exhibited works include oil paintings, large-scale drawings and photography. The Hungarian artists included young people and several Kossuth Prize winners, he said. Among other things, the thematic groups are built around the dystopian landscape, landscape as environment and home, the relationship between landscape and man, and landscape and ecological thinking. The curator also said that the title of the original project, which was not realized in Jerusalem, was Landscape, Landscape, Landscape.

In addition to Tibor Iski Kocsis, the curators of the exhibition were Nehemja Boáz, Ofer Kahana, Victor Rjabkin and Avi Róth.
