Images: Renaissance women in hipster style

Story by Refresh News • Wednesday

The artistic representation of Women in the Renaissance is rather monotonous. Since they did not pursue a profession per se and were therefore perceived as having no identity, they were often used as representatives in painting role models Presents – Mother, Daughter, Harlot, Witch, Eve or the Blessed Virgin Mary.

„Weapons of peace“: Glass artists create elaborate weapon replicas

Story by Refresh News • TODAY

Of the Artist and glassblower Robert Mickelsen has spent the last few years producing outstanding glass art and now has his hands on incredibly crazy looking replicas of firearms tries. The grandiosely designed works of art are also perfectly usable hookahs. He himself describes the hookahs, which are constructed down to the smallest detail, as “weapons of peace”.

Mickelsen is not a fan of guns, he writes on his home page about himself. At first he primarily tried to keep himself financially afloat with his works of art, because the specially made water pipes were particularly popular with people. As he took a closer look at his cool designs himself, he’d have to admit that architecturally speaking, guns are beautiful machines. The bad thing is what people can do with it, says Mickelsen. He found himself in the midst of the contrast between beautiful aesthetics and bad weapon functioning.

But his answer to this paradox is his weapon replicas! His glass weapons are aesthetically beautiful and cannot kill anyone, but rather serve the peaceful things in life. 

In this way, Robert Mickelsen’s glass artworks ultimately become „weapons of peace“.
