"Introduction to Meowseum Cat Museum":
Artist Shu Yamamoto was born in Yokohama, Japan in 1948. He graduated from Aichi Prefectural University of Arts and currently lives in Utah, USA, with his family. In 2007, he accidentally saw his son imitating Van Gogh's self-portrait, but the painting was not Van Gogh but the face of a cat. As a cat lover, he was inspired to use this as an opportunity to paint two of his favorite paintings. Elements - "cat" and "art" are combined into creative elements, and the world's famous paintings begin to be fully "meow-ified". From ancient Egypt, the Greek era, the Renaissance, realism, surrealism, Asian art... So far, he has accumulated more than 500 cat-like works, including oil paintings, watercolors, sketches, electronic paintings and other media , in addition to retaining the characteristics of each art genre, he also adds the world view of cats. Looking at his works one after another, it is like being taught a lesson in the art history of cats! Therefore, "Cat Art Museum" became the theme name of this series of works exhibited all over the world.
The Whiskyfind, which is good at using whisky to tell stories, has exclusively obtained the authorization of Osamu Yamamoto to use whiskey to interpret the world-famous paintings that have been transformed into meows. This cross-border cooperation project is the Meowseum Collection of Whisky!
大碗島的貓咪午睡
原畫:Un dimanche après-midi à l'Île de la Grande Jatte
"Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" is a classic masterpiece by Seurat, a representative painter of the "pointillist" school of Neo-Impressionism. Using the pointillism technique that Seurat was most good at, on the basis of the four primary colors and the exquisite carving of color dots, and through the visual characteristics of the retina, countless small colored dots are stacked together, which looks black when viewed from a distance and black when viewed up close. But it is colorful, depicting the relaxation and joy of people relaxing and vacationing in the park on Sunday afternoon.
After the original painting was transformed into a meow by Osamu Yamamoto, it depicts cats in the city, stopping on the island of Dawan, enjoying their holiday nap time. Through the stacking of color dots, the cats of different coat colors are given a rich and warm feeling. Fun atmosphere.
Seurat once said: "I don't mix colors on the palette, but let your retinas and brains do it on their own." The deep color of this Gleneagles wine, which has been matured in sherry barrels for 15 years, will make you see it at first glance. At first I thought it was a sherry cask whiskey with a heavy and monotonous barrel flavor. However, after a close encounter, I discovered that it is actually colorful and has different levels of flavors, just like an exquisite afternoon tea party!
