Dutch artist Berndnaut Smilde creates indoor clouds using a smoke machine and uses dramatic lighting to make them look realistic. He calls the project

Whether you consider it sculpture, installation, performance or photography, if you see the art of Berndnaut Smilde in person, don't blink - his artwork only exists for a moment. In a relatively normal room or hallway a small cloud seems to materialize from nothing. As quickly as it emerges, though, the cloud dissipates and is gone. Very carefully controlling factors such as temperature and humidity, Smilde creates these small man-made clouds and photographs them. His work playfully disrupts normal indoor spaces, bringing a part of the visual language of the outdoors within. In this way, his artwork transforms the space it works in, infusing a sense of mystery into otherwise banal spaces. See more of Berndnaut Smilde's clouds after the jump.

Przybyły ze Szwabii w 1845 r. piwowar Jan Ewangelista Goetz założył w Brzesku niewielki browar. Z czasem stał się on potężnym przedsiębiorstwem, a jego właściciel znanym przemysłowcem, właścicielem ziemskim i działaczem charytatywnym. Dzięki niemu powstała w Brzesku Kasa Chorych, szpital, szkoła ludowa i neogotycki kościół pw. Świętej Trójcy. Syn Jana, Jan Albin Goetz-Okocimski, doprowadził browar okocimski do największego rozkwitu. Wybudował on niedaleko browaru pałac oraz osiedle dla robotników i urzędników. Ostatni ze spadkobierców, Antoni Jan, syn Jana Albina, po rozpoczęciu działań wojennych w 1939 r. uciekł za granicę w obawie przed represjami Niemców za przynależność do narodu polskiego i nigdy już nie powrócił do kraju. Zespół obejmuje pałac z parkiem i budynki folwarku oraz przemysłowe zabudowania browaru. Najstarszym zachowanym obiektem jest budynek administracyjny zwany starym pałacem, w którym początkowo mieścił się browar i rezydencja Goetzów. Zbudowano go w latach 1845-1850 i rozbudowano w 1905 r. Bogato dekorowany z zewnątrz, stary pałac zachował też dawny wystrój wnętrz. Obecnie mieszczą się tu biura oraz Izba Tradycji Browaru z pamiątkami rodziny Goetzów. Najwspanialszą budowlą zespołu jest położony w parku angielskim pałac, wzniesiony w latach 1898-1900 przez Jana Albina Goetza i jego żonę Zofię z hrabiów Sumińskich, zaprojektowany przez znaną wiedeńską firmę Fellner & Helmer. Powstał budynek o podłużnej i nieregularnej formie, którego zewnętrzny „kostium” jest mieszaniną stylów od baroku po secesję. We wnętrzach zachowały się wspaniałe stiuki, drewniane okładziny i parkiety, schody oraz meble i obrazy. Istnieje również pałacowa kaplica o posadzce i ścianach wyłożonych marmurem. Pomiędzy rokiem 1908 a 1911 pałac rozbudował o część wschodnią architekt Leopold Simony. W pobliżu starego pałacu rozciąga się kompleks warzelni starej i nowej, w której zachowały się kotły warzelne i zacierowe. Jest tutaj także, obecnie już nieczynna, tzw. stara słodownia (1875), gdzie przerabiano niegdyś jęczmień na słód. Warto zajrzeć jeszcze do nowej słodowni i butelkowni oraz do kufiarni, służącej do wyrobu beczek leżakowych zwanych kufami. Wokół browaru rozlokowane są także murowane i drewniane domy oraz wille powstałe głównie w 2. poł. XIX w., przeznaczone dla urzędników i pracowników browaru. --- Brzesko, Goetz-Okocimski Brewery A settler from Swabia, the brewer John Evangelist Goetz, opened a small brewery in Brzesko in 1845. With time, it grew into a large and strong company, and its owner became a well-known businessman, landowner, and charitable benefactor. Thanks to his endowment, the Health Fund in Brzesko was established, as well as the hospital, the village school, and the neo-Gothic Church of the Holy Trinity. John’s son, John Albin Goetz-Okocimski, led Okocim brewery to its greatest prosperity ever. In the vicinity of the brewery he built his mansion and living quarters for workers and clerks. When the war started, the last of the heirs, Anthony John, the son of John Albin, feared German prosecutions due to his Polish nationality; in 1939 he fled abroad, never to return. The compound includes the mansion with its surrounding park, some auxiliary buildings, and the brewery’s production facilities. The oldest surviving building is the administrative building, the so-called “old palace”, which initially housed both the brewery and the Goetz living quarters. It was built in 1845-1850 and extended in 1905. Abundant in external decoration, the “old palace” also retained a rich interior. Today it holds offices and the brewery’s Tradition Chamber with Goetz family mementoes. The most magnificent building in the whole compound is the mansion located in an English- style park. It was constructed in 1898-1900 for John Albin Goetz and his wife Zofia of the Count Sumiński family. The design was commissioned from the well-known Viennese partnership, Fellner & Helmer. The building is elongated and irregular in shape, and its outer “shell” constitutes a mixture of styles, from Baroque to Art Nouveau. The interiors conceal magnificent stuccoes, wooden panels and floors, staircases, as well as grand pieces of furniture and paintings. The palace’s chapel is all laid out in marble. Between 1908 and 1911 the architect Leopold Simony extended the mansion, adding the eastern section. Stretching next to the “old palace” are the old and new brewery buildings, with mash and brew gyles (vessels) preserved. There is also the old malt room (1875), where barley was processed into malt but which is no longer used for malting. The new malt room, the bottle hall, and the coffer room are also worth a look, the latter used for making “coffer” barrels for settling beer. Located around the brewery are brick and wooden houses and villas built for the clerks, workers and servants, mostly in the latter half of the 19th century. (www.dnidziedzictwa.pl)
