Perhaps the most influential artist of the 20th century, Pablo Picasso may be best known for pioneering Cubism and fracturing the two-dimensional picture plane in order to convey three-dimensional space. Inspired by African and Iberian art, he also contributed to the rise of Surrealism and Expressionism. Picasso's sizable oeuvre grew to include over 20,000 paintings, prints, drawings, sculptures,ceramics, theater sets, and costume designs. He painted his most famous work, Guernica (1937), in response to the Spanish Civil War; the totemic grisaille canvas remains a definitive work of anti-war art. At auction, a number of Picasso's paintings have sold for more than $100 million. The indefatigable artist has been the subject of exhibitions at the world's most prestigious institutions, from the Museum of Modern Art and Centre Pompidou to the Stedelijk Museum and Tate Modern.

In the 1950s, the Surrealist Group comes into contact with the Tachisme movement. As a result, Toyen moves to the very edge of lyrical abstraction but not beyond as she explores the unconscious and tries to visualise sensations in pictorial form.

Plant and mineral elements or details of mysterious beings emerge from her seemingly abstract canvases, as in the cycle Seven Unsheathed Swords, which comprises seven vertical- format canvases. Seven poets wrote poems for each of the cycle’s paintings. The title was proposed by Georges Goldfayn, who drew inspiration from Guillaume Apollinaire’s poem Seven Swords in which the poet associates seven blades with seven female names. The addition of »unsheathed« creates further chains of association. Toyen focuses on the depiction of a gown-like garment with an absent body, similar to her earlier paintings from the 1930s. But this time, the women/swords are both disturbing and alluring, and their absent bodies can be spotted in the ingeniously exposed details (the tip of a foot, a finger).

About the artwork

Toyen, an abbreviation of the French word citoyen, citizen, was born in Prague as Marie Cerminová. In the 1930s, she met the surrealist pioneer André Breton and exhibited together with other surrealists in Paris. On returning to Czechoslovakia, she formed a surrealist group there. During the German occupation, she was prohibited from showing her work but secretly published collages and drawings in which she expressed her hatred of censorship. Toyen hid her friend, the poet Jindrich Heisler, who was Jewish, in her home during the war. In this painting, a shadow in profile holding out a plant appears against one half of a double door. On the other half, white-gloved hands form the shadow image of a barking dog's head. The threat against someone's precarious existence is portrayed with the dream-like logic of collage.

Today is World Galgo Day, set up by animal rights activists to raise public awareness of the often cruel plight of hunting dogs in Spain

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Animal associations have been working for years to ensure that the rights of all animals are protected within the new law. Unfortunately, this will not be the case when the new Animal Protection Act enters into force. This was something animal organisations and animal lovers feared recently on World Galgo Day on February 1.

These matters are regulated within the new Animal Protection Act

It is prohibited to offer pets for sale in shop windows. Breeding by private individuals is also prohibited. Only people who have registered themselves as such and meet strict rules are allowed to breed pets. If people do not comply with this, high fines can follow, up to a maximum of €200,000.

There will be a national ban on cockfighting. In the last two Spanish regions where this was still done, the Canary Islands and Andalucia, this is now also banned.

Circuses are no longer allowed to keep wild animals and perform acts with them. These fines can also amount to as much as €200,000.

People who want to take a dog into their home have to take a mandatory course to take good care of it. This course is free and only needs to be taken once.

One of the most controversial parts of the new Animal Protection Act is the fact that hunting dogs and dogs used for other professional purposes, mainly working dogs, are excluded from the new legislation. Owners of these dogs will therefore not have to meet the same requirements as pet owners.

Different requirements for pet and hunting or working dog owners

According to the law, pet owners have a number of obligations such as recording and being able to provide the identity of their pet and providing shelter. Hunters and owners of working dogs are exempt. In addition, pet dogs should not be left alone or on a chain for more than 24 hours. In that case, fines can amount to €10,000. Hunting and working dogs are allowed to live without human supervision for extended periods of time, as long as their owners know their whereabouts and make sure they have a place to shelter.

One of the most bizarre examples is that absolutely no harmful means or methods may be used when raising a Labrador, for example. On the other hand, owners of hunting and working dogs can use whatever means they deem appropriate so that the dogs can do their job.

Spanish hunters' association happy with new legislation

President Manuel Gallardo of the Royal Spanish Hunters Association says he is pleased with the new law because he also believes that hunting dogs cannot be treated in the same way as pets. They carry out a specific activity and therefore they must be treated differently. He does not understand that opponents believe that hunters must ensure that their animals are not allowed to harm others. "In that case, it is better to impose a hunting ban," according to Gallardo.

Battle not yet over according to some Spanish politicians

Despite the fact that the new Animal Protection Act has been passed within Congress, some parties indicate that they do not accept it. For example, sources from Unidas Podemos say that they will make it clear that when serious crimes are committed against animals, this means that hunters and owners of working dogs are punished with prison sentences and high fines.

Ione Belarra of Unidos Podemos says: "The fact that these owners do not need any education or papers and can use all means to train the animals, does not mean that these animals do not need to be protected to some extent."

Edith Chaplin, later Lady Londonderry, strides boldy through a landscape against a dramatic sky - her favourite dog on a leash. The choice of red dress pays homage to a portrait of her great-grandmother, Lady Frances Anne Vane-Tempest, wife of the 3rd Marquess, whose riding crop - a gift from the Prince Regent - she is holding. As this stunning portrait by the fashionable Hungarian society artist suggests, she was a remarkable woman. A famous society and political hostess, whose favourite expression was 'What lovely fun!', she held huge receptions at Londonderry House in London and country house parties at Mount Stewart. But she was also an outspoken and articulate supporter of women's rights as well as a devoted wife to the 7th Marquess and loving mother to Maureen, Robin, Margaret, Helen and Mairi. During the First World War she worked for the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps and became the first military DBE.

Summary

Oil painting on canvas, Lady Edith Helen Chaplin, Marchioness of Londonderry (1878-1959) with her Favourite Hound, Fly by Philip Alexius de László de Lombos (Budapest 1869 - London 1937), signed lower left: P. A. de Laszlo/ 1913. A full-length portrait, standing in a landscape, wearing a red dress and holding a greyhound. It is a direct reference to an earlier portrait of Lady Frances Anne Vane-Tempest, wife of 3rd Marquess, both in red. The riding crop Edith is holding was a gift from the Prince Regent to Frances Anne.

Prince Albert's favourite greyhound bitch, Eos, stands poised and alert, guarding her master's possessions - his leather gloves, top hat and ivory-topped cane. A deerskin footstool with hoof feet symbolises the Prince's sporting interests. The shimmering black beaver fur of the top hat echoes the gleam of the dog's coat, and both provide a dramatic contrast against the scarlet tablecloth. Through the inclusion of such personal items, the painting almost serves as a portrait of the absent Prince himself. Greyhounds are a breed traditionally associated with court life, and Landseer's portrait tacitly alludes to earlier pictures such as Titian's Charles V with his Dog (Prado, Madrid) and Van Dyck's James Stuart, Duke of Richmond and Lennox (New York, Metropolitan Museum).

Eos accompanied her master when he arrived in England in 1840 to be married to Queen Victoria. In an early letter to his future wife, Prince Albert provides a colourful character study of the animal (Jagow 1938, p. 46):

'You ask after...my faithful, but not disinterested Eos. She is very well, looks after herself as much as she can, sleeps by the stove, is very friendly if there is plum-cake in the room, very much put out when she has to jump over the stick, keen on hunting, sleepy after it, always proud and contemptuous of other dogs'.

Landseer is said to have borrowed the hat and gloves without Prince Albert's knowledge, which caused some panic amongst his personal servants when the Prince decided to go out and they were not to be found. Evidently the secrecy was a success - Queen Victoria wrote on Christmas Eve, 'Amongst my presents to him was a large life size picture of "Eos" by Landseer, with which he was quite delighted, & it came as a complete surprise' (Journal, 24 December, 1841). The painting was hung in the Prince's Dressing Room at Buckingham Palace.

When Eos died in 1844, Queen Victoria wrote of her husband's distress noting that 'she had been his constant and faithful companion for 10 ½ years and she was only 6 months old when he first had her. She was connected with the happiest years of his life...' (Journal, 31 July, 1844). Landseer's portrait was used as the basis for two bronze memorial statues (RCIN 98163 and 41483) standing in Windsor Home Park and at Osborne, which were modelled by the Prince himself in collaboration with the sculptor John Francis.

Eos was one of the dogs portrayed on the silver-gilt centrepiece designed by Prince Albert.

Photographer Martin Usborne was seriously disturbed by the plight of the Spanish hunting dog. Bred for their speed and agility, Usborne says up to 100,000 dogs are abandoned or killed at the end of the Spanish hare-coursing season because they are deemed too old or too slow. To bring attention to this practice, Usborne spent two years photographing rescued hunting dogs in the areas where they are often abandoned or killed, including the sides of roads, ravines, rivers, and parking lots.

But even the rescue dogs are shattered and scarred. According to an organization dedicated to rescuing two common breeds of these dogs-the galgo (Spanish greyhound) and the podenco- these animals have often been starved, deprived of affection, and kept chained in dark sheds. I corresponded with Usborne and asked about his work with these neglected yet elegant animals.

JANNA DOTSCHKAL: What inspired you to work on a project about hunting dogs?

MARTIN USBORNE: I had taken a year out to travel the world and see how many animals I could save (which I am writing up as a book), and during my travels I came across the story of these beautiful dogs in Spain being abandoned en masse and knew I had to make a photography project about their plight. I was drawn to the painful contradictions in their story: such beautiful dogs with a regal history-they used to be associated with nobility many centuries ago-but with such an ugly modern story of abuse and abandonment. They had such strong and elegant bodies, which were also often damaged or weakened.

JANNA: What were you looking for when you selected the individual dogs?

MARTIN: I was looking for dogs that captured something of these contradictions-that were regal but also vulnerable, beautiful but also scarred, proud but nervous. I also wanted a variation of breeds and colors as well.

JANNA: How and where did you find these dogs?

MARTIN: I worked primarily in two rescue centers in Andalusia. One center is very large and is small but both do incredible work picking up abandoned dogs and finding them new homes. Their work swims against the increasing tide of abandonment, relying almost entirely on donations and the goodwill of people who want to adopt the dogs.

JANNA: How did you get the dogs to pose for you?

MARTIN: In many ways I didn't want the dogs to pose at all-and nor could I make them pose. These were scared, nervous, and often distrustful [dogs], which meant they moved a lot and I had little time with each dog. I also didn't want to cause them distress. Nevertheless, I wanted to capture something of their discomfort, their nervousness, to tell their story. I didn't want a perfect pose exuding calm. I normally worked with someone else, preferably a volunteer who knew the dogs, who would help to calm them down a little just so they would be in front of the camera, but other than that I wanted them to be themselves.

JANNA: What kind of look did you want your photographs to have?

MARTIN: My images reference the mood, color, and tones of Velázquez paintings . He lived and worked in the same area where I took these pictures and also at a time when the dogs were still considered regal and associated with nobility. Although he didn't typically paint dogs or landscapes he painted with an intensity and drama that I wanted in my images.

JANNA: You sometimes describe your photos as dark, which strikes me as unusual for animal photography. Why do you choose to take this approach?

MARTIN: My work is driven by two things that I've spent a long time trying to reconcile but realize now are actually deeply intertwined. Firstly, I'm deeply concerned with the rift between humans and (other) animals and want to bring awareness to this painful divide. We are separated from other animals by language, technology, and a fatal arrogance that causes immense pain. Secondly, I'm interested in exploring my own darkness, which is another sort of separation, from one part of myself to another. I became interested in animals-particularly dogs-when I was very young and when I had a hard time speaking and felt a deep sense of vulnerability. Both of these things-my concern for animals and my weaknesses-are one and the same. A yearning for understanding, compassion, and connection.

JANNA: What was it like to photograph these animals?

MARTIN: To be honest I found the whole process emotionally exhausting-going back so many times and seeing so many new dogs. So many of the dogs were scared and resistant to touch that I really didn't want to spend too long photographing them or [imposing] upon them. Some were impossible to console or comfort, others less so but still unsure of themselves. I tried to give them what care and attention I could, but I also didn't want to stress them. On the whole the greyhounds and smaller hunting dogs were fairly timid by nature so it wasn't always so easy.

JANNA: What do you want people to take away from these photographs?

MARTIN: At the very least I hope they engage with the beauty of the dogs and the ugliness of their story. I hope it makes people realize what is going on without confronting people with harsh images.

JANNA: What do you think humans can learn from dogs?

MARTIN: That we are animals too. That we are capable of immense love and trust but also of abusing that love and trust. A dog can show us how to love and live in the most direct and simple way possible.

You can see the full series of images from Martin Usborne's new book, Where Hunting Dogs Rest, published by Kehrer Verlag on his website.

SYNOPSIS

Yo Galgo is the journey of filmmaker Yeray Lopez, who sets out to investigate the plight of the galgo in Spain, after his own galgo helped him get through a heavy depression. The investigation takes Yeray to the breeders, who use the dogs for hare coursing, and deep into the hunting world where galgos are mass bred in hopes of finding a champion. The film explores the passion for competing, breeding, and hunting with Galgos and the consequences such unregulated practices have for thousands of dogs every year. Yo Galgo sheds a light on the cruel, inhumane practices of modern-day hunters who have reduced an entire dog breed to a short-lived commodity. The film also explores the relentless work of organizations striving to help the ever-growing population of abandoned dogs.

AWARDS

Awarded OUTSTANDING INTERNATIONAL DOCUMENTARY FILM at the Genesis Awards 2018, by The Humane Society.

Nominated at the Hollywood Music in Media Awards for 'Best Original Song - Documentary'.

A story never told

Once raised only by Spanish noble families, the Galgo has had a remarkable fall from grace, yet their story is relatively unknown worldwide. Even in Spain, their plight is often unheard of or, worse, ignored.

The unregulated and mass-scale breeding, the cruelty associated with breed selection, and the opaque use of public land used for hunting made it hard for an outsider to access the world of Galgo hunting. However, with the help of his Galgo Bacalao, the director and cameraman Yeray López Portillo was able to enter, and be accepted within the hunting circles in rural Spain to reveal previously unheard stories and testimonies. The film takes an in-depth look at the hunter's perspective and the people fighting to end Galgo hunting.

CHANNELING GLOBAL INTERESTS

From the beginning, we understood that this film could and should become an international piece, but we did not expect so much interest when we started opening up the project to the public.

To increase the impact of the documentary once finished, we decided to create digital meeting points in which to share opinions and network. We started on Instagram and Facebook, which soon took off with tens of thousands of friends.

In collaboration with the NGO World Animal Protection Netherlands, and our friends from our social platforms, we collected more than 100.000 signatures demanding the Spanish Government to ban hunting with galgos. Yo Galgo has been contacted by European parliamentarians, both in Spain and in Germany, as well as lobbyists in The Hague, in an attempt to bring this issue to the European chamber. Yo Galgo collaborated with the NGO "No a la Caza con Galgo y otras Razas" to coordinate and promote demonstrations in favor of protecting the galgo in 31 Spanish cities, and another ten around the world.

Long story short, we are very grateful for all the awareness that we are contributing to raising about the plight of these dogs.

What if you had the power to change the world with a single image? This year, Monday the 1st of February, was ' World Galgo Day'. This date also marks the end of the Spanish hunting season every year. If you don't know what that means, please watch our trailer below.

Please lend your voice to help raise awareness of the suffering of thousands of galgos by posting a picture of your pet (or yourself) alongside a sign that reads #FreeTheGalgo.

If you don't have a pet, or the possibility of creating an image for #freethegalgo campaign, here we have prepared more than twenty images that you can use. They are yours.

Collaboration with Mini Rodini

We are thrilled to be part of bringing the story of the galgos to the younger generations (and their parents!) in collaboration with Mini Rodini. With their new collection "Save the Galgo", 20% of the price of each item sold will be donated to the rescue organization Galgos del Sol in Spain.
Watch it, share it, and help raise awareness! The galgos need us!
Understanding why it's necessary to save the Galgo and reach new audiences, that otherwise would not know about it, is key. That's why MoonLeaks collaborates with different groups, from different fields, to bring stories to the public.

Education, awareness, and creative collaborations to fight the abuses being committed to animals, are key parts of our concept.

Yo Galgo is an award winning documentary film about an invisible genocide taking place while the authorities look the other way. It's an exposé of the sharp divide between animal rights and the traditions of a nation.

February, the fear of Spanish Greyhounds (English Subtitles)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The documentary FEBRUARY, filmed and edited by Irene Blanquez, paints a picture of the reality of greyhounds in Spain without being sensationalist. Hare-baiting, common practice in many rural areas, exposes the greyhound to a brutal training regime and to a life of misery. The hunting season finishes in February, a month when the number of greyhounds abandoned by their owners sky-rockets. Most of them are no more than three years old. 
The documentary has been produced with great enthusiasm and effort by Waggingtale Films, www.waggingtale.es. The pre-production work, production and post-production (camera, sound, editing, soundtrack, colour correction...) has been done by professionals altruistically without crowdfunding or sponsors. All the management, promotion and distribution in the official and educational tour is being also altruistic. It is for this reason that we especially appreciate your help. You can make a donation or purchase our solidarity bag.

Carácter: Loelia es una galguita muy simpática que se encontraba abandonada sola en el campo. Es una galga muy joven, por lo que tiene un carácter mucho más activo que el que tendrá en época adulta. Es un un encanto, una perrita muy muy sociable, muy simpática y mimosa, le encanta estar con gente para que le acaricien y se relaciona muy bien con otros perros. Cuando entramos en su parque, aunque la pillemos durmiendo, en cuanto nos escucha es la primera de su grupo en venir rápido a nosotros y ponerse de pie para darnos un lametón y pedirnos caricias. Le gusta mucho jugar, sería perfecta para una familia que tenga un perro juguetón y busquen un hermano para él. Es muy noble y sumisa, no dominante, con un carácter fácil y sin miedos. Preferimos que se vaya en adopción con familias que tengan otro perro juguetón en casa, o en caso contrario que la familia no pase muchas horas al día fuera de casa y que les guste jugar con ella o salir a dar largos paseos.

Carácter con adultos: Sociable, Cariñoso, Adecuado para principiantes, Activo, Simpático

Carácter con niños: Sociable

Carácter con otros animales: Sociable

Loelia is achtergelaten in Écija en gered door een groep vrijwilligers uit deze stad. In de linker voorpoot waren de middenvoetsbeentjes gebroken en weer geheeld, niet helemaal op de juiste manier en langer geleden, niet recent. Deze oude wond veroorzaakt geen pijn of ontsteking en er is geen operatie nodig.

Description

The catalogue introduces the work of the world famous yet recently rediscovered Czech painter Toyen who had lived in France since 1947.

The artist's work is presented in the wider context of her activities (Devětsil Group, Surrealist Group in Czechoslovakia, Paris Surrealist Group), structured chronologically in five sections, each named after the crucial work of the given period: Coral Islands, Magnet Woman, Hide Yourself, War!, All the Elements, and The New World of Love. Each section begins with a detailed biography that illustrates to what extent Toyen's multifarious work is interconnected with her life stages. In addition to chronological contextual studies, the texts deal with crucial themes of her creation such as, for example, eroticism, politics, spectacle, alchemy, analogy, and books.

The catalogue authors bring varied and enriching approaches, whether they are poets, contemporary witnesses, or researchers from different disciplines, not just art historians. The book is complemented with hitherto unpublished documents and correspondence. The large number of illustrations includes an array of photographs of Toyen that are being published for the first time.
