  • Romero Britto Onboard Allure
    ROYAL CARIBBEAN EXPANDS RELATIONSHIP WITH INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED ARTIST ROMERO BRITTO Allure of the Seas to Feature First Britto Gallery at Sea MIAMI – Royal Caribbean International continues to unveil surprising new features and amenities that distinguish Allure from her sister ship, Oasis of the Seas. In addition to debuting the DreamWorks Experience and Chicago: The Musical, as well as a line-up of new dining, entertainment and shopping options, another new venue that will call Allure of the Seas home will be the very first Britto Concept store at sea by pop culture icon, Romero Britto. Royal Caribbean has enjoyed a long relationship with Britto, which began in 2003 when the artist designed the pool deck for the debut of Mariner of the Seas. Marking the next evolution of this partnership, the BRITTO Gallery aboard Allure of the Seas will be an engaging and interactive space for guests to enjoy the color, innovation and spirit which encapsulates Britto’s art. The store will be located in the Central Park neighborhood and will display artwork along with smaller collectible pieces and sculptures of all sizes. A unique sculpture boasting Britto’s well-known butterflies will grace the gardens of Central Park directly in front of the store, welcoming guests and providing a cheerful photo opportunity. Britto will be creating two original pieces exclusive to Royal Caribbean for guests to purchase, including a custom painting, which will be available as canvas giclées, as well as a Royal Caribbean- inspired teddy bear ornament. Within the store, which will be outfitted in black and white as a contrast to Britto’s exceptionally colorful artwork, guests will have the opportunity to learn about the artist himself from a documentary of Britto’s accomplishments as well as participate in wine and champagne events, art discussions, and other activities related to Romero Britto.

  • ROMERO BRITTO (Brasil-Amerikaner)
    ROMERO BRITTO (Brasil-Amerikaner) The prince of Pop Art Romero Britto, oder besser gesagt das Britto-Phänomen, verblüfft jedermann. Dieser junge brasilianische Künstler, der häufig mit Andy Warhol und Keith Haring verglichen wird, hat mit seinem eigenständigen Neo-Pop-Stil einen bedeutenden Auftritt in der Welt der Kunst gemacht. Seine Gemälde und Graphiken werden weltweit auf grossen Ausstellungen gezeigt und verkauft. Mit klaren, kühnen Linien und farbintensiven Bildern vermittelt er dem Betrachter ein positives, beschwingendes Gefühl. Romero Britto wurde am 6. Oktober 1963 in Recife/Brasilien als siebtes von neun Kindern geboren. Wie alle Kinder, die sich viel selbst überlassen sind, schuf er sich seine eigene Phantasiewelt, die er begann in Zeichnungen umzusetzen. Eine Aenderung trat ein durch seinen Bruder, der Buchverkäufer war und ihm Bücher von z.B. Toulouse Lautrec mitbrachte, die er dann Tag für Tag kopierte. Im Alter von acht Jahren arbeitete Britto mit allen Materialien, die ihm zu Verfügung standen: Wasserfarben, Bleistift, Tinte und Fingerfarben. Unter den Einfluss des weltbekannten brasilianischen Künstlers Francisco Brennand malte Romero Britto Stilleben in primitivem Stil. Schon als Teenager veröffentlichte er seine Illustrationen in brasilianischen Tageszeitungen. Seine Arbeit wurde erstmals in Brasilia im Rahmen einer Ausstellung vorgestellt: Romero Britto war damals 14 Jahre alt. Die Intelligenz und der Wille von Romero Britto verhalfen ihm Schulwettbewerbe zu gewinnen, die ihm die Möglichkeit gaben, an exzellenten Privatschulen unterrichtet zu werden. Nach Abschluss der Schule studierte er zwei volle Semester Jura und stand dann vor der Frage: Diplomatenkarriere oder die Erfüllung des Traumes Künstler zu werden. Er entschied sich für das zweite. Romero Britto war klar, dass Brasilien für seine Projekte nicht der geeignete Ort war, so zog es ihn 1987 nach Miami/Florida: "Coming to Miami was like being born again!".

    ROMERO BRITTO a cura di Gloria Porcella e Lamberto Petrecca Art Director | Mario Peragallo Art Director © 2011 Romero Britto © 2011 © 2011 Romero Britto © 2011 Introduzione in collaborazione con presentano La sensazione che si prova dinanzi alle opere di Romero Britto è quella di un divertente capovolgimento del reale, come se assistessimo all’invasione di cartoni animati nel nostro mondo, ritagliati nei loro contorni neri dalle forbici di chissà quale creatura magica. Fiori giganti, farfalle, gatti, cani, coccodrilli sorridenti, cuori che inneggiano all’amore -tutti rigorosamente caratterizzati da colori squillanti, pulsanti, vivi- sembrano provenire da un universo fantastico, sicuramente molto diverso dal nostro, dove non esistono il dolore e la tristezza, ma solo sentimenti positivi, il candore e la spensieratezza che contraddistinguono l’infanzia. E l’intento dell’artista è proprio quello di distoglierci per un momento dalle brutture che assillano il nostro vivere quotidiano, regalarci una ventata di buon umore, di solarità e speranza per il futuro. Per Britto l’arte ha un forte potere rasserenante e tutti devono poterne fruire liberamente: in quest’ottica si colloca l’installazione di molte sue sculture in oltre venti città sparse in tutto il mondo. E’ l’arte che va in strada, verso la gente e non rimane chiusa staticamente ed esclusivamente tra le mura di un museo. Originario del Brasile, nel 1983 intraprende un viaggio in Europa per studiare l’arte dei grandi Maestri. Dopo aver esposto in diverse gallerie, viene incoraggiato ad intraprendere un viaggio negli U.S.A., culla della Pop Art. A Miami apre così un suo spazio espositivo, riscuotendo un enorme successo.

  • “The Innocent Moon” Radio Drama (60 Minutes)
    “The Innocent Moon” Radio Drama (60 minutes) by Cliff Burns 2 Cast: Voice #1: The Child Voice #2: The Man Voice #3: The Cynic/Realist Voice #4: The Astronaut Voice #5: The Artist Voice #6: Omniscient 3 Production Notes: Voice #6 is decidedly female. This drama utilizes numerous sound bites and “samples” from various films, songs and works that relate in some way to the Apollo missions and/or depictions of outer space. This creates an aural montage of voices and music, sometimes overlapping, competing, fading in and out...a sound portrait of human endeavor, real or imagined voyages to the moon we have gazed and wondered at for eons, creating a wealth of myths and narratives to sate our voracious curiosity. 4 The Innocent Moon “The innocent moon, which does nothing but shine, Moves all the labouring surges of the world.” -Francis Thompson SOUND FX: Fading up—President John F. Kennedy, addressing the United States Congress, vows to land a man on the moon by the end of the decade…followed by clips from old science fiction films--“Destination Moon“, “Rocketship X-M”, “Invaders From Mars”—alternating with snippets of music: CCR’s “Bad Moon Rising” , Bobby Vinton’s timeless rendering of “Blue Moon” and, finally, R.E.M.’s “Man on the Moon”.
