Some architectural structures are so good that they can be considered as sculptures - large-scale and beautiful. And here is the Lithuanian architect Rytis Daukantas created a project art galleriesbased on an already existing sculpture by a French artist and sculptor Sacha Sosno or simply Sosno.
Earlier this year, we told you about the Bregenzer Festspiele opera festival, the scenery of which is so amazing, large-scale and beautiful that they can be works of art in themselves. However, some of them are based precisely on works of art, for example, on the Statue of Liberty in New York. We can see something similar, only on a much larger scale, in the project of the Sosno Art Gallery, which will soon be built in Nice. Its appearance is based on one of the sculptures by the artist Sosno.
Sacha Sosno (née Alexander Sosnovsky) is one of the most famous and popular French artists of our time. For many decades, his unusual sculptures and paintings have made people amazed, surprised, and thoughtful. And soon these emotions and reactions will be evoked by the architecture of the Sosno Art Gallery in Nice.
The author of the project for the Sosno Art Gallery building was Lithuanian architect Ritis Daukantas. But he did not come up with anything conceptually new. He only converted into an architectural project one of the famous Sosno sculptures, in which a wooden block penetrates a human head. This is how this art gallery will look like.
The above-mentioned Sosno sculpture will grow to a seven-story building 22 meters high. Its four upper levels will house the art gallery itself. Below there will be a gift shop, a multimedia class, lounges and a conference hall for 45 people. There will be a panoramic balcony on the roof with excellent views of the sea, mountains and the city of Nice around! It will be possible to move between the levels of the Sosno Art Gallery by stairs or by elevator.

Why did Tretyakov not buy paintings by the artist-"thistle" Semiradsky for his gallery?
It often happens that the opinions of the public and professionals in assessing the work of artists are in opposition, when some violently scold and do not perceive, while others admire and extol. So it happened with the work of the famous Polish-Russian painter Heinrich Siemiradzki, who worked in the second half of the 19th century and left a considerable artistic legacy of large-scale canvases that attract the viewer with the skill of execution, historical plausibility and sincerity of the subjects

Animal armor designed by Jeff de Boer
Thanks to the efforts of the creators of the cartoon "Tom and Jerry", irreconcilable images of a cat and a mouse are firmly entrenched in our minds. But if these creatures are waging a centuries-old war, then isn't it time to do it more professionally - say, putting on armor? The idea, of course, is absolutely fantastic, but Jeff de Boer undertook to show us how everything could be if the animal world fought in human likeness
