MWW Artwork of the Day (8/16/22) Juan Gris (Spanish, 1887-1927) Femme au Livre (Woman with a Book)(1925) Oil on canvas, 73 x 53.9 cm. Private Collection
"Femme au livre" is an elegant example of Juan Gris' mature Cubist works, which Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler called “the crowning achievements of his oeuvre.”  Painted in the final years before Gris’ premature death, this harmonious composition contains the vital elements of his later aesthetic, as Norman Rosenthal stated in his discussion of the artist's works from this period: “In a painting by him we find an intensely satisfying, hermetic relationship of pictorial elements, one balanced by the next and then another until the subtlety of resonance reaches an exquisite pitch.” "Femme au livre" presents a soft yet rich palette of blues that contrast with the checked tablecloth and reddish-brown hues.
Juan Gris is one of the featured artists in this MWW gallery/album: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1316627485109284&type=3

I turned in the book manuscript for INTERMEDIARIES, the forgotten history of the first transgender clinic 1918-1933.
It follows the story of Dora Richter, the first transgender woman to undergo complete MTF surgery (not Lili Elbe; she was third!) It’s taken me two years of blood, sweat, and tears. A lot of tears, actually.
The Nazis raided the Institute for Sexual Science; they burned the library. They banned the books that remained. They attacked, arrested, and ultimately killed trans and homosexual people along with disabled people, minority groups like the Roma people, political opponents, and 6 million Jews. (One commenter suggested 11 million people over all, and really, that estimate may still be conservative).
The news today, 2023, reads a lot like news in 1923 with the rise of hatred against LGBTQ, attacks on reproductive rights, and increasing racism and antisemitism. The Nazis rose throughout the 1920s, coming into power 1930-1933.
The world said never again; we must now be the ones to stop a slide into hatred and violence. Before it’s too late.
Here is a preview of the book; it will be available for pre-order this winter (I hope), coming out in 2024.

And Baru cast the first dart at hand, the words that set the coopers and the fishmongers and the bannermen of Lyxaxu and Oathsfire and Unuxekome roaring: “Show them who should rule Aurdwynn, and why.” Vultjag! the poorer parts of the crowd screamed, a raw astonished sound. Vultjag!
