Head on collision between two cultures When Rare Secret Art was released recently

Receive an invitation to the opening of exhibitions art at the prestigious Art Gallery in Annandale, a converted Masonic Hall, is a common phenomenon for Bethany.

The Majestic Trafalgar Street building, was opened in 1860 as a Methodist church. In 1920, it was converted into a Masonic lodge. Now, a gallery of art in a upmarket trendy downtown Sydney, Australia.

The owners of the gallery have won their enviable reputation in the art world, through better projections specialist in modern art in Australia and overseas.

The invitation July 22, seemed to be exceptional from the beginning. He spoke of rare art secret. Never before has the sacred art was seen outside the small remote tropical island, the archipelago of the South Pacific, Vanuatu.

Dressed in full regalia custom, a group of artists Ni-Vanuatu nine performed a sacred dance ceremony on the island of Ambrym, in the opening.

Bethany eagerly organized with two friends to attend the opening, which sounded a bit mysterious and a lot of fun. Then they would enjoy a dinner at one restaurants of Darling Harbour. The problem of working their way through traffic from Sydney and finding parking for the Mercedes-Benz has been averted with the firm decision take a taxi or be dropped by one of the husbands

"Arriving later than expected because of the traffic of Sydney, we were greeted by the sounds of a music string orchestra playing beautiful island as we approached the door of the gallery, "Bethany said. "It as if the South Seas had come to the city. Was thinking of palm green and blue tropical oceans. He was invited to think about taking this cruise South Pacific My husband and I have been promising ourselves, "she.

As they joined the other guests while sipping French champagne, Bethany and her two friends buzzing with excitement as they admired the rare objects. These include the beautifully carved wooden figures and masks, plus a Drum four meters (standing tom-tom). One of the largest musical instruments in the world standing free in the world.

"We understand this ancient art and rare, but it could easily be mistaken for modern art, "said David Baker of the gallery curator." There is only piece of work like this in a British museum. "

A figure appeared barely dressed. Intensify the gong, he began a beat Regular methodical on the lip of the front of the wooden gong. The face carved stylized to represent an ancestor. The long slit up the front the ancestor of the drum giving a voice once again.

Four dancers came next, dressed in what looked like a tent from head to feet based on dried leaves, with their faces painted in bright colors topped with chicken feathers, covering their faces. In a slow rhythm, but dreamlike shuffle they started making their way to the center of the room. Their voices filled the gallery into a song monotonal.

Five other men, dressed in ceremonial dress their secret society, moved to the center of the four principal dancers. Stamping and clapping their hands, they raised their voices in song.

Ignoring the feeling that they were originally five mature Ambrym men were dressed only with a broad belt of bark slung low on their hips. A penis sheath Namba, barely covering the essential part of manhood, they focused on their sacred dance. A bright red hibiscus adorned with an ear.

Ignoring the feeling that they were behind the brilliant and well-trained buttocks dancers rocked up and down in time to the rhythm of the drum, the matrons of Sydney looked in total shock.

"When the first dancers entered the room it was rather difficult to know where to put the eyes. I have not seen that many naked buttocks since my four children were very young, "said Bethany laughing.
It's one thing to imagine that these men who dance in the soft light of a tropical forest of the island, naked feet drumming ceremony on a dirt floor, but think of them as having just a modern hotel room, braving the traffic Sydney and the Australian winter, was a mind bending thought.

"We were told these men is taboo and no women are allowed to touch them, even today, "laughed Bethany. "In fact, if all females had their performance, the dance, they should be killed. A good thing does not apply today. "

life moves at a different pace in the tropical islands of Vanuatu, voted the happiest country on Earth in 2006. A great nation of more than 153 distinct languages and cultures with little means of modern communications covering distances apart.

Education is an oral tradition and many villagers still live as their ancestors have done for generations. Tradition and culture is passed from father to son through dance, song of sand drawings, and sculptures. Many of the younger generation have lost the ability to understand the mystic language carved gongs.

The leaders are beginning to recognize the educational needs of their people. They decided to share the secrets of their society and the release of some of their rare sacred art, to ensure its survival, setting the art world on its ear. Their goal is to encourage their young and make them aware of their ancestral culture.

Few people know that the little neighbor of Australia still has wonderful secrets hidden in the "Must See 'Adventure Travel Destination South Pacific.

Education needs beyond the main islands goes to the bottom of the list of priorities for a government in 2007 admitted that they do not have the resources to meet the educational needs of the nation.

Youm Support Foundation offers a unique once in a lifetime Blue Moon Opportunity. Not only is it a world first, it will make a real difference in the lives of these children. You can not afford to miss. You can make a difference in your own life, and help some truly deserving children. Children who reach out and embrace the collision of two societies.

Sad to think like a noble animal has survived an attack so long as the current treatment of the dying day. Amazing nonetheless =) "49 Feet male whale died when he was shot with a similar projectile last month, and the old device was found buried under his fat as hunters carved it with a chainsaw Harvesting "BOSTON – A ton bowhead whale caught off-50 from the Alaskan coast last month had a weapon fragment embedded in its neck that showed it survived a same hunt – more than a century ago. Embedded deep under its fat is a 3 arrow-shaped 1/2-inch projectile that has given researchers a glimpse of the whale's age, estimated between 115 and 130 years. Calculating a whale's age can be difficult and is usually measured by amino acids in contact lenses. It is rare to find one that has lived more than a century, But experts say the oldest were close to 200 years. "

Thank you for posting this! Is a sad story. Whales are by far my favorite animals b / c they are really gentle giants. I agree – very noble animal! I mentioned the whales all the time when I was little. Mom finally broke down and bought me a membership to Greenpeace when I was in second class. LOL. I just see a special about this particular case this past weekend. They are indeed the oldest living whales. (Most others do not live as long). They make trips a year between Great Britain and Canada … they travel 10,000 miles in 10 days! Incredible! I hope that people will stop being butt heads on this. There are precious few of these majestic creatures left and we need to protect them.
