"We value our customers who are patiently waiting more than anything"

What a wonderful statement ! 

"Making something from passion and soul, not necessary money and fame takes time." How true is 

that?

"the word art etymologically means to do" Henri-Robert-Marcel Duchamp

We took part recently in a architectural competition for a building for an European Chess association and i was reading trough some of the chess books i ordered at the time  and came across the name of Marcel Duchamp, who I learned had turned a very successful chess player in his later years. (to a certain discontent of some of the established a the time chess masters).

The book is called  The Chess Artist by J C Hallman, One  quote stuck in my memory - "He preferred a beautiful loss to a boring win"

Duchamp, along all the attributions he has to the modern art we know today, was also one of the first artist to try and express/implement  4th dimension in his work, which could be very tricky when you are working with "static" lets say media/tools.
