Houston – June 21 2012

/in , , /by

EuroCircle Houston is co-hosting its June get-together with the Texas Young Professionals (TYP) and the World Affairs Council.

Join us at Remington Bar in the St. Regis Hotel on June 21st from 5:30pm – 7:30pm.

A well-known Houston bar, Remington Bar that offers sophisticated nightlife and high-end mixology. As written in the CultureMap.com’s Low-Down: “If only walls could talk. At The Remington Bar, stories abound about the two decades worth of corporate moguls, high-priestesses of society and international A-list celebrities, intellectuals and royals who have made this cosmopolitan lounge their Houston salon. And while the plush booths and cozy, art-filled side rooms invite scintillating private conversations, live music on the weekends draws people onto the dance floor.

Housed in the elegant St. Regis Hotel, the Remington takes advantage of the hotel’s culinary acumen by offering a menu that incorporates classic European bistro panache with the imagination of New American cuisine. The juicy hamburgers would satisfy any cattle baron – but first, try one of the bar’s signature infused-vodka martinis. Think 1920s Algonquin with a contemporary Texas twist.”

Be sure to invite your friends and co-workers to our largest event yet!

What is Eurovision?
The Eurovision Song Contest is an annual competition held among active member countries of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU).
Each member country submits a song to be performed on live television and then casts votes for the other countries’ songs to determine the most popular song in the competition. The Contest has been broadcast every year since its inauguration in 1956 and is one of the longest-running television programs in the world. It is also one of the most-watched non-sporting events in the world, with audience figures having been quoted in recent years as anything between 100 million and 600 million internationally.

The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) was formed on 12th February 1950 by 23 broadcasting organisations from Europe and the Mediterranean at a conference in Devon, United Kingdom. It was on the 6th of June, 1954, that Montreux became the venue for the first transmission by the EBU’s Eurovision Network of the Narcissus Festival and its flower-bedecked procession floats.

“Did you know that not only stars like ABBA, Celine Dion, Cliff Richard and Julio Iglesias took part, but also dance act Riverdance thanks its fame to the Eurovision Song Contest?”
The first Eurovision viewers eagerly watched on four million television sets in homes, bars, and shop windows in Germany, Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland.

“Exposición Española de Arte” – Meet The Spanish Artists Ramon Vilanova and Joseph Domenech
Opening Reception

THIS EVENT IS NOT ORGANIZED BY EUROCIRCLE – just something interesting many of you might want to enjoy

NOTE: Your RSVP is Requested by the gallery: (512) 478-4440

Friday, May 4th 2012 6-9pm
Russell Collection Fine Art Gallery
1137 West 6th Street
Austin TX 78703

Both of the artists live in Barcelona area, Spain.

Acclaimed by art critics in prominent and distinguished collections throughout Europe, Ramon Vilanova is one of the great landscape painters living in Europe. Despite, or perhaps because of Ramon Vilanova’s years as a technical illustrator, color is now more important to him than drawing. Using a spatula, he stains the canvas, and then he uses the dripping and splattering techniques of oil impasto to create his intensely colored, densely textured work. Vilanova works exclusively plein aire, “at that time and place” giving his compositions a special sensitivity and evoking an emotion of the scene he has chosen to commit to canvas in an expressionistic style.

In his own words, Joseph Domènech says, “I always try to go deeply into myself, searching for the equilibrium, the simplicity – to show just the basic element. I express myself through objects, elements, figures, different situations, feelings, balance, meditation and self-reflection.” His unusual technique began with an economical choice during lean financial times. It involves applying oil with rags and cloths, using diluted color with trementine essence and then adding many layers and eliminating some. He lets the paint dry many times over until he reaches the desired effect. His works of art are, as he says, “food for thought…combinations of emotions are reflected in my paintings.”
