IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR LIFE

Because Magret's parents were so poor, Magret didn't learn how to read and write when she was young. This troubled her. She would stay up at night, thinking: Will I ever be able to write my name? Will I ever be able to read?

VAN GOGH TO PICASSO - GUGGENHEIM BILBAO

Drawn from the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation's Thannhauser Collection, Van Gogh to Picasso: The Thannhauser Legacy features works by impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and early modern masters, including  Paul Cézanne, Edgar, Édouard Manet, Pablo Picasso, and Vincent van Gogh. It makes the first occasion that a significant portion of this illustrious collection has been exhibited outside of New York since its arrival at the Guggenheim in New York over fifty years ago.


IMPRESSIONISM

It's an art movement, impressionism originated in 19th-century France as a reaction against the rigid rules of "academic painting" of that time.

Impressionist art is known for its distinctive brush strokes, lighting, colours, and everyday subjects.

POST-IMPRESSIONISM

It's an art movement that developed in the 1890s. It is characterized by a subjective approach to paintings, as artists opted to evoke emotion rather than realism in their work.

Post-Impressionists believed that a work should place emphasis on symbolism, communicating messages from the artist's own subconscious. They perceived it as a way to convey feelings.

Like the Impressionists, the Post-Impressionist shared their work with the public through independent exhibitions across Paris.

HALLOWEEN 18/19

Halloween is a celebration on the night of October 31. It is mostly practised in the United States and Canada. Children wear costumes and go to people's homes saying "trick or treat" to ask for candy (sweets) and people give it to them. Its meaning is " give me a treat or I'll play a trick on you". People mainly dress up as ghosts, witches or other scary things for Halloween.
