Jet Li, From Humble Beginnings To Action/Martial Arts Movie Superstar

admin — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 21:35:14 +0000

Are your ready for some action?

Among all the remarkable action/martial arts movie stars over the last 20 years or so, several of them truly stand out such as Jackie Chan, Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Chuck Norris, probably Jean-Claude Van Damme.

(Maybe you have your own favorites that haven’t been mentioned here. Let me know by sending in your comments.)

There are movie performers most people remember and who are quite frankly household names.

One such martial artist and movie performer I am always impressed with is Li Lianjie.

“Who the heck is that?”, you ask.

I admit I also only knew him by his stage name, Jet Li.

For many years, Jet Li has worked extremely hard to get where he is now in his career.

And obviously his hard work and determination have paid off for him and his family.

Especially if you consider that his mother had to somehow pull him, his bother and two sisters through as a widow in Beijing during the Sixties.

As a teenager, Jet Li rigorously trained in Wushu for several years, winning countless titles and national gold medals.

Jet Li became a member of the high-acclaimed national Wushu team that even performed for then-U.S. President Nixon in the United States.

In those days it was an extraordinary honor and opportunity for Chinese to be able to travel overseas and even more so to perform in front of “the leader of the free world”. Jet Li was still just a teenager at the time!

His abilities and achievements as a Wushu forms practitioner paved the way for Jet Li’s acting in martial arts movies that started in China, then Hong Kong and ultimately the United States. He has become a global superstar throughout the years.

You might have seen him in some of his movies such as:

Shaolin Temple

Once Upon A Time In China

Lethal Weapon 4(This was the first time I had ever seen Jet Li and I was impressed!)

Romeo Must Die

Hero

Cradle 2 The Grave

Fearless

War (with Jason Statham)

The Forbidden Kingdom (with fellow superstar Jackie Chan)

I have learned that Jet Li is a cast member along with Sylvester Stallone, Dolph Lundgren, Jason Staham, Arnold Schwarzenegger to star in “The Expendables” which is scheduled to be released in 2010. More on that at a later date.

But there is also another side to Jet Li such as his charitable activities, notably after his near-death experience in 2004 in the Maldives during a tsunami.

Reportedly, Jet Li’s “The One Foundation” supports international disaster relief efforts with the Red Cross and other efforts, such as recovery in the 2008 Sichuan earthquake.

Jet Li continues to impress on and off the big screen.

If you enjoy watching Jet Li either at age 14 performing Wushu form for his first championship or as the bad guy in Lethal Weapon 4, stop by TheMartialArtsReporter.com

Ever Consider Becoming an Art Collector? Here’s How to Start

admin — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 22:06:43 +0000

Maybe you buy art simply to decorate. Most of us do. We have a blank wall and want something fabulous, so we go looking for a great piece of art.

But, have you ever considered collecting art? Take a look around at the art on your walls to see if there’s a common thread or theme that emerges. Do you have a number of florals? More than one landscape? Or, maybe you have a budding art collection of pieces purchased on trips you’ve taken.

Of course, when we talk about paintings, we’re talking about real art. Art that’s created by actual, living artists. Not art you’d buy in a department store. So, if you have that kind of art – real art – you can stop thinking of it as a bunch of paintings, and turn it into a budding art collection.

Here’s a wonderful example of real art that’s collectible and affordable. This fine art photo could be the beginning of a wonderful Americana art collection. There are literally thousands of artists who artfully document everything American, including this example of a vintage sign advertising the last privately owned bar in Fort Lee, New Jersey. The artwork titled The Last One is a 20″ x 24″ print available for $125 from fine art photographer Nick D’Andrea. http://www.discoveredartists.com/.

A collection of vintage, neon bar signs or advertising symbols from the 1950’s could create an interesting, decorative art wall while at the same time become an enjoyable pursuit as you hunt for more Americana artwork.

But, the subject area for art collection themes is wide open. For example if you absolutely love cityscapes and have photos of skylines and skyscrapers, before you know it you’re an Architectural Art Collector. Or, if you have a couple of floral or animal prints, and begin collecting similar pieces, you can build a collection of botannicals or nature artworks

Believe it or not, chickens and cows are very big with collectors. These are creatures that artists particularly like to paint, often because of the challenge of turning fur and feathers into interesting, lifelike figures with personality. Rooster 25 is a perfect example of an artist who took on and met the challenge. This fierce looking bird already has his feathers ruffled, ready to strike without provocation. The painting is an original 12″ x 12″ oil on canvas by artist Ilse Kleyn and sells for $100 in the artist’s DiscoveredArtists.com gallery. http://www.discoveredartists.com/

So, all you really need to do to become an art collector is to put some thought into your art buying. Before you know it, instead of just buying art, you’ll be collecting art. Decide on a theme based on art that appeals to you. Perhaps you love raku vases, or glass art. Or, maybe you’re attracted to bronze figurines. If you’re into wall art then cityscapes and watercolors from a particular country could become a theme for your collection.

Cityscape at Dusk is a wonderfully warm, inviting photo that captures a moment in time at the intersection of North, Damen and Milwaukee Avenues in Chicago’s Bucktown neighborhood. Collecting photos and original art that takes you back to places you’ve visited or neighborhoods where you once lived adds meaning to the art that you use to decorate your home or office. This fine art photo by photographer Kurt Kramer can be purchased for $90 in his online gallery at DiscoveredArtists.com and is just one in a series of collectible, big city neighborhood cityscapes.

So, as you can see, there’s no end and no limit to the types of themes for collecting art. In fact, many collectors just buy what they like and create collections comprised of favorite artworks. These are collections that bring the owner years of pleasure and great satisfaction.

In fact, when compared to using art simply to decorate or to impress someone, collecting art gives you an even greater payoff. The process of collecting art is a life enriching hobby that beautifully mirrors who you are and shows the world what you love. It can return a lifetime of satisfaction and value.

Where to Find Real Art At Reasonable Prices:

At www.DiscoveredArtists.com you can search over 4000 pieces of original and limited edition art created by international, independent Artists. Search by style, color, price, shape, size, and theme. Read artist biographies and search for artists by career experience, credentials, juried status and more.

Artwork is shipped directly to you from the artist’s studio. Prices are set by the artist, not by the gallery so you avoid paying gallery markups. Purchase art using a major credit card using a secure shopping cart. All purchases are backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee including return shipping.

General concerns of art galleries comes from particular area, art in a particular medium or singular style, or also art from specific focus such as political art. Characteristically, any art in an art gallery is for sale, even though the gallery might hold on to an extraordinary permanent set, or sponsor an exclusive display of art.

Most of the art galleries are public, in the sense that any person could walk inside the art gallery and but the desired art. In general, public galleries host often openings and willingly promote their company. Many artists get their kick start at common public art galleries only, which could sell work on fee or buy work from an artist and resell it later. On the other hand, some of the art galleries, yet, are private, in the sense that you need to be a member if you wish to enter. Private art galleries demonstrate high-end art, and support bountiful openings.

Some of the art galleries have custodians which usually concentrate on art from a particular region or exact period.

At times the regional spotlight would be very restricted; an art gallery may only show Peruvian textiles, for instance. During other times, the focus is in fact more on general, and is intended to comprise a huge range of creative styles from a wide-ranging area of the globe. In some cases, an art gallery only carries art from an exact period in history. This is particularly common with modern art galleries, which display first and foremost modern art.

Another art gallery may offer work done in twentieth century by Jewish artists, or show political pictures from African refugees. These galleries are characteristically open to members of the public, to support cultural education and other enrichment.

Vietnamese Art Galleries – the Epicenter of Vietnamese Art

admin — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 10:50:02 +0000

Vietnamese modern art is a rising force in the world of fine arts. And Vietnamese art galleries have played, and are still playing, a major role in this new surge of international enthusiasm around Vietnamese art. Let’s take a closer look at the immense contribution of Vietnamese art galleries to the widespread popularity of Vietnamese modern art.

The genesis of the current popularity of Vietnamese art can be traced back to the beginning of the last decade of the last century. It is during this time that Vietnamese art in general and contemporary Vietnamese art in particular have started to emerge from a state of virtually no recognition and anonymity to have its say on the world’s art scene. For long, scholars and researchers from the Occident were prone to dismiss Vietnamese culture as a wan replica of Chinese or a mishmash of French-Chinese-Indian cultures. That Vietnam owes much to those great civilizations is undeniable, but it in no way means that Vietnamese culture is a mere product of mimicry. It is safe to say that what has enabled Vietnam to survive as a nation through an aggregate thousand-odd years of foreign domination is that she has known how to digest foreign influences and incorporate their quintessence into her own culture.

It is not surprising then that Vietnamese modern art today exhibits a happy knack of mixing Western techniques with a rich traditional sensibility. Thematically, Vietnamese modern art has stayed close to the nation’s tradition and cultural heritage, drawing inspiration from local festivals, age-old traditions, peasant life and other local variety. In these days, when people are speaking of an identity crisis in Asian art, Vietnamese art has become a center of attraction. Indeed, Vietnamese art works in the last decade have been increasingly sought after by foreign collectors and art lovers. Exhibitions of contemporary Vietnamese art are being organized in Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Australia, France, Germany, Great Britain, Belgium, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Holland, USA, Argentina and more.

A Vietnamese art gallery is probably the best place to get acquainted with this new école. In most parts of the art world, the life of an artist tends to revolve around art galleries. Vietnamese art galleries are no exception. Recognition comes easy for an artist if he or she succeeds in displaying a work in a reputed gallery. This simple philosophy has led to the fervent populating of many Vietnamese art galleries with the best samples from one’s repertoire.

The owner of a reputed Vietnamese art gallery often plays a significant role in launching and promoting artists. He may weave engrossing, mostly fictional but sometimes true stories around them. Seasoned art lovers, however, will usually look past the hype, negotiate hard and sometimes get very good prices by going directly to the artists.

One can easily conclude that art is big business in Vietnam. Fine Arts have found an all new commercial lease of life. Vietnamese art gallery owners today talk of selling individual works for tens of thousands of dollars, and some are financing frequent trips to the United States, Europe, and Asian cities such as Hong Kong, Singapore and Tokyo. Paintings that sold for less than $50 even ten years ago, are now fetching more than $50,000.

Aroma DD Art Gallery, Suffusive Art Gallery, Apricot Gallery, Doai Gallery, Dong Phong Gallery, Green Palm Gallery, Hanoi Studio, Mai Gallery – there’s no dearth of galleries in Vietnam today. If you want to have a first hand experience of Vietnamese modern art, there is just one place to head for – Vietnamese art galleries.

Simon Pontin joins Inspired Art

admin — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 23:50:19 +0000

Inspired Art are delighted to inform you that Simon Pontin has joined our team! An artist with an already established strong track record and making some fantastic art to buy online, Simon is a great addition to the team.

We are always on the lookout for new artists who will inspire you to buy online art and in Simon we are certain you will love the quality of his work. It is our goal to give our customers the opportunity to buy original art online, and from a trusted gallery, that is why we work very hard to ensure you have the best artists available to select from.

A professional artist and also having been a professional musician as a bass player it is clear that artistry and creation is in his heart. With collections in Greece, South Africa and Edinburgh the worldwide appeal of Simon’s work is clear for all to see. Currently he has work on display at Inspired Art and also in New York.

“My aim as an artist is to produce as much quality, experience based artworks as possible. I loosely adhere to the principles of Transpersonal Art. I believe that art is, in its archetypal form, a means for Man to transcend the obvious and the physical, manifesting the spiritual reality of himself. I believe that through the process of creating my work, and the materials and meditation employed, a transmutation of substance occurs. This process is a spiritual journey, a process of cleansing and healing that even though mostly misunderstood by myself, leaves me with a sense of connection to the world around me, and a general feeling of well being.”

Simon’s work is in high demand and this is partly down to the process used to create his work “Some pieces evolve over many months, even years, the ageing and deterioration of substances and materials manifesting the creative process over time.” If you want to view Simon’s work in more detail then you can do so here Simon Pontin Art.

Everyone at Inspired Art would like to make Simon feel very welcome in our team and we hope our Inspired Art Club members are as happy with Simon’s work as we are.
