Artwork Description:

The idea behind this design is to depict the motif diagonally across the curtain. Just as the theatre street Broadway in New York runs diagonally across the city's otherwise ruler-straight streets. I was in New York this summer. I visited the Museum of Modern Art, Guggerheim, and saw all the attractions you have to see in New York. On Broadway I ate a delicious meal in an Irish restaurant full of atmosphere. And I saw Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical CATS at the Wintergarden Theatre on Broadway. A great experience. Colorful and still with a slight tightness of form. Like the design BROADWAY. The design entitled MONTMARTRE (or PARIS) Montmartre is the artists' quarter in Paris. I have been there. So have Picasso, Matisse, C�zanne, Braque, Gris, Mir�, Max Ernst, Paul Eluard, Jean Arp, Ren� Magritte, ��ger, Klee, Tolouse-Lautrec, Monet, Renoir, Sisley, Pissarro, Degas, Signac, Seurat, Gauguin, Chagall, Dal�, Tanguy and Van Gogh. In MONTMATRE they sought their inspiration. In MONTMATRE they lived their more or less chaotic lives In MONTMATRE they painted and exhibited their famous works of art. It was my intention that the basic picture in the MONTMARTRE motif was to be able to stand alone as a work of art. A work of art which, by being placed next to each other many times, becomes a beautiful pattern.
