The Night Café

“”In that painting  i was longing to express how café is the place where man can be destroyed,to go mad and make crime”


Based on letters written byVincent Van Gogh


*To die may not be as hard as to live*

I was only a little child that i began to notice surrounding in all abundance of colors:beautiful and magic Colors, but for difference of that, dominant color in my relationships to people was gray.I never was able to make *intimate and easy*contact to the others.I believe, there was an misunderstanding between me and men i got to meet.There is not truth i didn’t want to make friends with many of them.My God,when i’m thinking of that,it certainly was my guilt.There must be i was quite different with all my *twist* contemplations, ideas,incapable to talk about common things of interest for majority.
So,i was striving to get closer to people and at the same time i running away.

How much i loved people testifies my painting.Villages and Peasants i liked best.Living along them i had a feeling of security.Watching their agony for hard work i was suffering and striving to put such suffering on my canvas.

                                          The solution were COLORS.That is WHY i was going CRAZY!

                                                                  GREEN and RED

Looking for suitable Paint to express passion and flaming atmosphere of present Murders,Prostitutes and Wanderers in Café i went Mad!

Dear Theo,
*The Letters of Vincent Van Gogh*if there was my Blame for being *Crazy and Despised*it comes from a simple fact*I expose my Life to danger for my WORK and because of that my Mind is Dark


 

This is a quotation from his letter, found to Vincent on the day of his death, July 29 th 1890.                                            

I am sure that you have been fostered by love to great Minds devoted to their works,by feeling a need of more understanding of what lives of these people looked like.

There is no doubt that they lived an unusual way ,not only for their creative powers than because of surrounding in which their masterpieces were made.Carrying a load of creation it was often difficult for them to make a living from own works. Van Gogh matched this pattern at all

He was hungry during his life-a piece of bread and some coffee for few days until money from Theo/his brother/has come.

Vincent Van Gogh
About God and his work:*That is about unsuccessful designs and man loves the Artist who made them. This world had been slap together for a short time and in a bad moment,when Creator didn’t know what he was doing.*

I liked this Quotation!

I am amazed at Colors-colors and feelings determine his Work.

*What does mean drawing? How it could be reached? It is an act of breaking through invisible wall placed between what we feel and what we are able*

This Story is my free artistic interpretation of the Artist's life that i have drawn inspiration from.

Thank you.

here is the link to Irving Stone’s Masterpiece *Lust for Life* based on the letters written by Vincent Van Gogh  to his brother Theo.
