okay this might be a longshot, but does anyone have ANY information on the cubist Wallace Harrison? He keeps being mentioned in things I read about Charlotte Park and Helen Frankenthaler, but I cannot find a single thing on this man whatsoever. The only information I have is that he was an australian-born cubist and worked with prominent artists in new york. aside from that, nothing. Literally the only time he is mentioned in something that i’ve seen so far is “{insert artists name here} studied with australian-born cubist Wallace Harrison, before blah blah blah”. what in the hell.
For your information, in Gaza we don't eat chicken, meat, vegetables, fruits, eggs, fish, milk, yogurt, cheese, and the list goes on... Most people don't have flour, sugar, ghee, oil, thyme, or even work... The list goes on and no one has gas or electricity, and the list goes on... And people are still living, and when I ask them how they are, they say "Thank God." Don't these people deserve support and respect? Don't we deserve to live?

IMPORTANT NEWS FOR WINDOWS 10 USERS
reposting bc the op is a right wing loser
So, official support for Windows 10 ends on October 14th 2025. But Microsoft apparently lost a court case and now they have to offer an extra year of security updates--which was an option previously only available to their Business customers--to everyone. But you have to manually enroll. If you want to know how to do it, go to the link below
You've got to do it before October 14th if you want the extra year. Otherwise support will end for you and you'll probably have to "upgrade" to Windows 11.

Gustave Caillebotte, The Floor Planers, 1875
All hail Gustave Caillebotte, the only Impressionist who bothered to say “You know what this art movement doesn’t have enough of? Shirtless rough trade, that’s what!” And then he became the change he wanted to see in the world, and I think that’s beautiful.
i saw this in a museum once and i gotta go off on this for a second– not only is it a gorgeous display of technical mastery over light, darkness, composition, form. it’s also a slap in the face to artistic conventions at the time. at the time, you could have nudes but they had to be heroic. they had to be virtuous. 1875, paris– art was supposed to be elevating. it was for the wealthy, it was to be uplifting, it was so everyone who commissioned the pictures could flex their classics education. okay?
so here’s the floor planers. they’re workmen. they’re workmen. they’re not some rent boy you dolled up with a helmet to be achilles or adonis. artists have been hornily painting working-class models (and sex-worker boyfriends) into their portraits forever, but you’re supposed to frame your appreciation for the male form as an intellectually irreproachable appreciation for the heroic body from literature, or, conversely you could depict the humble beauty of peasants, if you must, but it had
to be a sort of ode to nature and the simple life. peasants could be art, as long as they were… out there, you know. in a field. being a metaphor. so there’s your options for looking at a shirtless guy: he’s got to be mythic.
but no. look, here, at the workmen. the floor planers. the workmen’s bodies not dressed up in sandals and helmet, in flowers, on a pedestal. the workmen not employed as some distant paean to an arcadian countryside, not stacking sheaves or holding a lamb or elevating the beauty of nature. they’re here, they’re urban, they’re in a room just like you might have. the workers of your world, in your home, in this reality. the male body as a very real, very nonfigurative tool, humble and employed, but still gorgeous. the beauty of the men that the patrician class pays not to see. the men who come into your mansion through the back door and work unseen and leave unseen. those men. there, right there, this painting, glowing and beautiful.
not adonis. but beautiful.
anyway at the time everyone fucking hated this picture because it’s a direct slap across the classist chops. they were BIG MAD, this was filthy, it was an affront. they hated it. the paris salon rejected it. established intellectuals didn’t want anything to do with this kind of confrontation. it wasn’t art.
i just love that.
like, look at those hot guys go. look at the shine on the floor and the way their arms are. no virtuous framing, no classic allusions. just some regular guys making the floors nice for a rich fucker who never laid eyes on them at all. but here they are: look at them.
they’re still beautiful.

do people on tumblr know theyve been shooting anti-ice protestors with tear gas and rubber bullets outside this detenion center on broadview here in chicago?? like they have a sniper on the roof and everything
https://abc7chicago.com/post/ice-chicago-operation-midway-blitz-protest-expected-broadview-facility-friday-sw-side-tamale-vendor-held/17885390/
pepper bullets fucking pepper bullets, this in combination with the man in franklin park who was killed in his fucking car by ice im getting more and more terrified for the community all over the city, like actually more and more people are just suddenly disappearing or get shot at and teargassed just for protesting or being "too brown". i dont think its right to look away from this because its coming to everybodys doorstep
edit: changed the news source cause abc7 had the most missleading fucking headline, block club chi is generally more accurate
