![]() ![]() By the way, Anders Dahl died in 1789, just in that year as dahlia seeds were sent to Europe.Īny more, "Dahl" is homophone of the Swedish word "dal" which means "valley". It was probably Antonio José Cavanilles (see above) who was engaged to scientifically define the genus. However, Linnaeus died in 1778, more than eleven years before the plant was introduced into Europe, Linnaeus could not have been the one who did so. Some sources claimed that the name "Dahlia" was given by the Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus to honour his late student Anders Dahl. ![]() The naming of the plant itself was a subject of some confusion. It was in autumn 1790 as the dahlia flowered in Europe for the first time. In 1789, Vicente Cervantes, Director of the Botanical Garden at Mexico City, sent plant parts to his colleague Antonio José Cavanilles, Director of the Royal Gardens of Madrid. Spanish conqueror discovered the dahlia growing in Mexico. The dahlia was declared the national flower of Mexico in 1963. The Aztecs labelled the dahlia for example as “water pipe flower”, “water pipe” or “cane flower”. They even made use of its long hollow stem as a water pipe. They also used it as a food crop as well as to treat epilepsy. The indigenous people, the Aztecs, admired this flower for hundreds of years. It does not claim to be exhaustive or complete in any way. I have made the selection according to purely subjective criteria. If you press the button of a name you will get interesting background information about its origin and meaning. The flowers I have painted bloom in Great Britain, too. In short, I have discovered some worth knowing aspects about the name of a flower, but not in a botanical sense. I have gone into the matter of that „nomen est omen“ and revealed a few hidden messages. In fact, one can argue: The name of the flower speaks for itself. Furthermore, as far as a species has been known for hundreds of years it has its own symbolic and mythic significance which is reflected in its name. It contains, if I may say, hidden messages as a result of its origin. ![]() Even if that “flowery language” is scarcely practised any more, the name of a flower still says so much. With respect to strict social codes passionate messages were delivered to the recipient through flowers without using any words. If one had to express ones feelings, flowers were the best medium. In the Victorian period of the 19th century the flower language boomed. On the other hand there actually is a flower language. On the one hand my colourful and atmospheric pictures can be a bridge to our knowledge, into which our rational thinking cannot penetrate. Insofar my flower paintings act as a kind of language. It is their beauty and their colour intensity which affect not only me but everybody. Furthermore, you will be able to realise what I see in flowers.Įach painting is an interpretation of my seeing and shows my personal view of flowers. Only then you can look deeper and get curious for new impressions. It is my intention to encourage you to take a closer look and also a different point of view at my flower paintings. This conscious consideration is always a matter of perspective. In order to judge and understand art it is necessary to look at the artworks purposely. There is no denying that art is a matter of opinion. ![]()

![]() I'm wondering if we can't extend that a little. Saints Row 2 is one of my favorite games, so I’m incredibly thankful with the efforts made by him and his (extremely small) team to fix it. ![]() What if the SR2 map could be accessed via a Steelport train station instead? You could take the train between cities, at which point the map 'swaps out' to Stilwater. The popular multiaxes branch is derived from develop. I hope that he spends his time here in peace, surrounded by his friends and family, doing what really makes him happy.

Saints Row 2 Penthouse Loft (North Island) Lately I've been plaving Saint's Row 2 and I decided to recreate Stilwater. His legacy will live on Saints Row 2 and the Saints Row series. But as this will take a long time I decided to start by uploading this building as an Example of my work. This is the start Of the City and the rest will be added around this. There would be a lot that would have to be modified in the Stilwater city map, and activities would have to be changed to be compatible with SRTT, but initially even if you could just go 'home' and wander about a city populated with people and vehicles, no activities or such (as a first phase), then take another teleport point back to Steelport, it would allow one to explore both cities. there are two buttons on each side of the big circle in the middle you can push to turn on your xbox360 the to buttons are start and back if you push pause t. #Saints row 2 map buildings install#The game is both disc or digital based, you can also install previously owned digital content from it such as maps or cosmetic items from the ready to install. ![]() The first question is whether or not this is even possible. #Saints row 2 map buildings mods##Saints row 2 maps mods#Īre the map and texture resources in SR2 in any way compatible with SRTT? I know some modders have put out mods for both games, so I'm hoping someone would know. Even without that, changing pedestrian and vehicle spawns and activity seems to be possible within SRTT so if the map and event spawning of SR2 is compatible enough, perhaps this is possible? I understand that there are no map editors available for either game but if there is an equivalent of a SR2_a file in SR2, then it may well be that in the future the Stilwater map could be populated with events. Happy to be told if this is too ambitious, but I don't own SR2 so I haven't seen the file structures yet and I'm going on the strong similarities between a lot of the resources in SRTT and SRIV right now. ![]() ![]() ![]() A group of local teenagers donning helmets and kneepads were doing skate tricks. I met the Boys from the Heights at their lodgings on the northeast end of Cleveland on the curve of a steep hill. Fifty-three trips around the sun after we started, we’re still here and we’re still alive.” “We want to share our art with the world. These are our golden years,” Mike 171 said at the panel at Graffiti HeArt. Rather than placing it in a frame or relegating it to an individual gallery room, Paul has created a space where every surface is a potential canvas, from fridges to tables to bathroom walls. Graffiti HeArt was the first art institution I had been to that found a way to display graffiti in its authentic form. Throughout their stay, the graf legends made sure to leave their tags all over the art space. It’s asserting who you are, and if you don’t know who you are, it’s asserting that though you can lose everything, no one can take away your name and the streets you’re from. First there was live spray-painting in a warehouse that SJK 171 referred to as the “5Pointz of Cleveland,” a documentary screening of Wall Writers: Graffiti in its Innocence–Taki 183 professed that they’d all seen it “like eight times,” but that it never get old–and a Q&A session for the Cleveland gallerygoers facilitated by Chicago-based graf writer ISH.Īll five of the boys in the Heights have lived through traumatic events, and when you have lived through such intense trauma tagging takes on more meaning than simply spraying your name to get it out there. Paul and Graffiti HeArt’s event for the Boys in the Heights spanned three days. The group even helped Paul come up with her own graf tag: “Stem65.” And rather than Washington Heights, Paul and her organization can now say that they’re repping “The Land” on the shores of northeast Ohio. By the end of the three days the Boys from the Heights spent in Cleveland, Paul said she “felt like had known them for much longer.” It’s no surprise, given that Paul displays the same grit and generosity that make the Boys from the Heights who they are. Paul hosts artists ranging from Cleveland natives like WRDSMTH and global muralists like Beau Stanton, as well as providing scholarships, community aid, and partnerships with local organizations like LGBT centers. Even Paul’s car stands out parked on the street with its unique spray-painted designs on its exterior.īy the end of the three days the Boys from the Heights spent in Cleveland, Paul said she “felt like had known them for much longer.” Its exterior pops out of the scenery around it with a rainbow gradient spray-painted by Los Angeles-based artist Risk. In the Tremont neighborhood of Cleveland, Graffiti HeArt is impossible to miss on Superior Avenue. The Boys from the Heights, as they’ve started to call themselves, were invited to Ohio by Stamy Paul, the founder and president of local nonprofit Graffiti HeArt. But the Rust Belt’s spaciousness certainly doesn’t mean it has any less of a commitment to graffiti. I was still a bit dumbstruck at the quiet and the clean air, and the fact that I’d traded chaotic Washington Heights of my youth for comparatively bucolic Squirrel Hill, Pennsylvania. ![]() I had moved further east down the Ohio River in Pittsburgh just a few days before taking the Greyhound to Cleveland. Like me, Mike 171, SJK 171, Henry 161, Taki 183, and JEC * are New Yorkers from the Heights in a world far from the narrow sidewalks stained with blackened dried gum, where tattered sneakers dangle from power lines between the crowded buildings that we grew up in. Of course, this is only the perspective of a native New Yorker. Otherwise, for a New Yorker, it looks like the sky and the earth have suddenly opened up and you’ve entered some foreign land where the ozone touches the tops of the buildings and the streets feel as wide as prairies. The buildings in the Rust Belt don’t pierce the sky the way the buildings of New York do, aside from some of the blue-glass corporate towers of the city’s downtown. At the western edge of Cleveland, Ohio, Lake Erie stretches an infinite, placid blue towards the horizon. ![]() |
