Parisian artist Guy Thomas (website - profile) is going to be showcasing his excellent material in Madrid for the very first time. It will be at the Hot Bar from July 4th thru September 15th. The exhibition is called 'Bearroco' (flyer). Guy states that this is going to give him the opportunity to pay a tribute to the Golden Age Masters of Portrait as well to his favourite subject of painting Bears which he has been doing for 10 years professionally.

In other news ~ Guy, after many years drawing mostly in monochromatic, states that he is rediscovering the joy in doing oil painted portraits; "I enjoy the strength of oil colours, sometimes on a golden background - like the Middle Age icons, of course to represent Bear-Icon... in my way".

There is this very cool looking 2008 calendar involving Bears and very old paintings. Ok so it's already the middle of February but that should not stop you from picking up your own copy. It's a calendar done by photographer Antinoo (website) who works with the Mad Bears (musical front page) of Madrid, Spain.

You can pick up a copy here and you can see a few previews right here, and if you want to see calendars that Antinoo has done in the past, go here. He also has a WordPress page which you can visit. Lastly, if you want a read up about this calendar, go here - altho it's in Norwegian written up by the Norway Bears.

I received this interesting link from Perdido (website - blog - TubeBear profile) who sent me off to check out a Spanish masseur by the name of Max. Now Max is in the capital Madrid and he welcomes you to come and get a massage by him. Check out Max' blog page in order to contact him. However, if you need a little more proof of just what you'll be getting for your money, then check out his videos he's posted on YouTube. He goes by the nick Massidob. There's a few vids of him massaging some husky Bears.

In other - somewhat related not really related - news... I have been helping with the translation to Perdido's Bear Degeneration (website - TubeBear profile). Perdido has sent me #3 to translate and I haven't had the time to do it yet but I will... promise... so watch for the 3rd episode, and you can read all 13 episodes on his site if you can read Italian.

It's a mad, mad, mad, Bear world. And yes, I've said 'it's a mad, mad, mad Bear world' almost every time I mention something that the Mad Bears of Madrid are doing. It's because I lack this thing called 'creativity'.

Nevertheless, the Mad Bears are gearing up for their 6th annual international meeting which will be taking place in Madrid, Spain from December 5th thru the 10th. Check it out.
