 42. It takes two a tango. But never cross the rooster! Alain Rousseau's recent works in China
Since Aesop and before, literature is full of references to animal characteristics and how they apply to humans. So it's not surprising that our personalities share qualities with particular animals, some more than others.
Anthropomorphism, sometimes referred to as personification, is a well established literary device from ancient times. It extends back to before Aesop's Fables in 6th century BCE Greece which employ anthropomorphized animals to illustrate principles of life. Many of the stereotypes of animals that are recognized today, such as the wiley fox and the proud lion, can be found in these collections. Aesop's anthropomorphisms were so familiar by the first century CE that they coloured the thinking of at least the philosophers.
The French Alain Rousseau is an contemporary artist who is not only familiar with the psychology of but also involved in this theme, creating series of paintings in oil on canvas.

On the 20th september, I met the young south african artist Robin Rhode. It happened at the museum of contempory art at the Rivoli's Castle.
After the debate, and away from the usual artistic offers, the public had the opportonity to participate to a laboratory-performance: integrating the artist's given graphic elements, the audience had drawn and colorated the walls. Huge wax colour pencils available in a box, had favoured a collective action, a social commitment.

Today, the definition of a designer has become vague and wide, everyone is designer, everyone is an artist. Your neighbor is a food designer when she creates a cake! Your neighbors' little daughter is an origami designer, and your neighbors' five year old kid is an upcoming artist, her husband is the best garden designer, and everyone is a designer. It is true, they are indeed designers as the definition of design today, so lets' separate advanced designers from the designers.
