Normkritisk twittrare som aldrig trivts i någon åsiktskorridor. Använder ibland ironi. Bott i två huvudstäder varav ingen var Stockholm. Art-tweeter🚮🎩⚽️
Degas did not just paint a café scene.
He wanted to show the dark side of modern life.
He captured urban loneliness:
You can sit right next to someone in a crowded room and still be totally alone.
He also exposed the reality of addiction.
Absinthe was a huge drug problem in Paris.
Degas did not paint a wild party. He showed the real effects: heavy silence and depression.
Other Impressionists painted picnics and dances.
Degas chose psychological realism.
He showed the real human cost of the city: isolation and boredom.
In a world full of people and screens, are we still trapped at Degas's café table?
