How to get lucky - Comment être chanceux | North Station | Boston Citywalks

-
Image
(texte en français ci-dessous) Boston Citywalks tells you today how to get lucky. You just have to find the Good Luck plaque at North Station and put your hand on it. I won’t tell you where it is exactly as it’s part of the quest! I can only tell you that one day, I was leaving the commuter rail when I saw people make a detour and put their hand on it. The plaque bears the name of Red Auerbach, a famous NBA coach that allowed the Boston Celtics to win many times in the past. What’s not clear if whether you ask for luck for the Celtics when you touch it, or luck for yourself. What’s also unusual is that this clover is a regular one, not the 4-leaf one. But well, what do you have to loose? North Station is at the start of the Walk in Boston # 1, the forgotten West End . Not only could you get lucky, but you'll also have a chance to discover a part of Boston that not many people visit. Some luck in itself, don’t you think so? NB : I got the answer to my questions w

Flushing Meadows Corona Park - Queens - Walk in NYC | Promenade

-
Image
Flushing Meadows Corona Park (texte en français ci-dessous) Until the beginning of the 20th century, Flushing Meadows Corona Park existed only in the form of marshland, as its current name still suggests. It was really only in 1939, at the opening of the First World Fair, that the place became a park open to the public, once the marsh was filled in and part of the Corona houses destroyed to enlarge the space. In gratitude for this imposed sacrifice, the name Corona was added to Flushing Meadows in 1964, shortly before the inauguration of the Second World's Fair which was also held there. All that remains of the first fair is the general architecture of the park, but it is from this second period that some of the most astonishing sculptures of the place date, most of which relate to the exploration of space which, in 1964 was the new frontier: the Unisphere, which has become the symbol of the park, the New York State Pavilion with its flying saucer-shaped to

Le Temps des amours IV, 2nd ed (the time of love IV, 2nd ed) A l'orée du bois (at the wood's edge) (texte en français ci-dessous) Most of my larger prints are now on ldart.work . "A l'orée du bois", is a hand colored linocut I made in 2000, and re-printed in 2011. For the 2nd edition, I kept the same colors but less of them, and I cut the block on the left side to make it a 6x16"image instead of the 6x16.5" it was before. I wanted this print to look like some of the cave painting you see in the South West of France. "Le temps des amours IV" is also a linocut and also a second edition but this time, I didn't change anything except the paper! I created the 1st edition in 1987, and it was part of a series of four 12.5x13" linocuts with four different pairs of animals in different stages of courtship (you can see all of them on the 1984-1990 prints page ).  The paper was different because I had bought it in France i

The Grand, Boston night club, Seaport District | DJ set 06/03/19 | Frank Walker & Felix Cartal

(texte en français ci-dessous) The Grand is the newest addition to Boston nightclubs. Located in the Seaport District, opened a little over a year ago, it hosts the greatest specialists in international electro dance.   Monday, June 6, it was the turn of Frank Walker and Felix Cartal to be at the mixer, each with his own energy and sound.  The sound system is impressive, loud but clear; the light shows are the most elaborate of Boston; the colorful visuals projected on two adjacent walls still transform the atmosphere.  If you especially want to dance and see your favorite DJs, you will probably regret that the dance floor is small and that most of the space is composed of VIP tables. This makes the Grand a chic club where you show off and that's what it claims to be. T To find it, follow  Walk in Boston # 8 ; The Grand is not far from the new chapel of Notre-Dame du Bon Voyage where there too, it is advisable to dress properly, although in another style
