# Éric Bourdon

Éric Bourdon (born 1979) is a French painter and writer.

## Painting career

Bourdon's works have in common vivid colors and unpremeditated pencil strokes, expressive of raw enthusiasm in the "art brut" or "Outsider Art" manner. Paul Masquelier, critic for the controversial review Eléments has pointed out the narcissistic or regressive aspects of his paintings, while conceding their social commentary and the feeling of joie de vivre they convey.
However, the core of his artistic practice is elsewhere. Bicha Gallery outlined it as follows: "Eric's work is more drawing than painting. It is a game with lines, first drawn in a spontaneous manner, random – much like a child doodling – then worked and reworked again and again until something new, a precise figure, character, emerges from this chaos. Always newness created from the nothingness. No character ever appears twice."
Indeed, Eric Bourdon's work is all about "improv drawing", as one can see on videos showing the artist drawing on a white board. Samantha Deman, critic for the French information website about contemporary art Arts Hebdo | Medias was enthusiastic after seeing the results in painting: "His universe is merry and fanciful, the stroke, spontaneous, has a great time on the canvas, virtuoso of the line, curves and arabesques, until the bright and luminous colours burst onto the scene and repossess it. Eric Bourdon bends kind monsters into shape who glide gracefully among a faun of individuals whose silhouettes are of the most amazing, plump or lanky, always infinitly sympathetic and delighted to come to stimulate our dormant child souls."

## Writing career

Bourdon wrote a book of philosophy in 2000 about artistic creation in practice. He wrote a long article for the magazine Concepts 1, comparing the first ethnological discoveries of L. Ron Hubbard, later the founder of the Church of Scientology, to Zarathustra by German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche.
Six years later he published a dark psychological thriller, Les Voleurs d'Enfant (The Child Thieves), depicting a cult against the cults. Although set in Boston, it is a dig at the French associations claiming religious neutrality and opposition to cults while behaving the same way as the cults they denounce.
Les Clarificateurs (The Clearers), released in January 2012, is a more literary sequel to Les Voleurs d'Enfant, well received by critics. However, as the thriller seems to explore the family reasons that lead someone to enter into a very modern religious organisation, it might be seen this time again as a complete parody of these views and a critic of the failure of the modern society.

She also made a venture into theater and in 1998 took part in the play Dos mujeres a las nueve by Juan Ignacio Luca de Tena.
Widowed in 1984 by journalist Pedro Rodríguez (1935–1984), she was the mother of television presenter Belén Rodríguez and Pedro Rodríguez Gómez [es], general director of Cuarzo Producciones [es].
From 1996 to 1999, she appeared in the series El súper. Historias de todos los días [es] on Telecinco, playing the role of "Doña Úrsula", the kleptomaniac customer and gossip of the supermarket.

# Laure Pigeon

Laure Pigeon (1882–1965) was a French medium who produced an oeuvre of 500 drawings related to her Spiritualist practice. She is considered one of the foremost Art Brut creators.

## Life

Laure Pigeon was born in 1882 in Paris. Laure's mother Alida, a laundress, died when she was five years old. After her mother's death she lived in Brittany with her paternal grandmother, where she received a strict upbringing. At twenty-nine she married a dentist against the wishes of her family. Twenty-two years later she separated from her husband, Edmond, after discovering his infidelity. After their separation she lived in a boarding house where she was introduced to Spiritualism by another woman tenant. Fifteen years later, she moved into an apartment in the Paris region where she pursued a solitary practice of Spiritualism.

## Work

Pigeon made her first drawing at the age of 52, under Spiritualist inspiration. From the mid-1930s onwards, Pigeon created hundreds of drawings, most featuring images of melancholy female silhouettes, others spelling out words, often embellished names: Laure, Edmond her husband, Alida her mother, Lili her sister, or Peter the Apostle to whom Laure claimed to have been married in a former life. Pigeon's artworks symbolize mainly abstract figures drawn in blue or black ink, some of which also contain written messages and prophecies known to be created by the medium under the effect of a trance.

# Illán de Vacas

Illán de Vacas is a town in the province of Toledo, in Castile–La Mancha, Spain. The surface area of the municipality is 9.15 km$^2$, and it has a total population of 2 inhabitants as of 2024, making it the least populated municipality in Spain.
Illán de Vacas belongs to the "comarca" of Torrijos. It is bordered on the north by the municipality of Los Cerralbos, on the northwest by Otero, on the east by Domingo Pérez, on the south by Cebolla and on the west by Lucillos.
The town lies at an elevation of roughly 480 m, and 59 km west of Toledo and 35 km east of Talavera de la Reina, on the railway line between Talavera and Torrijos. It is approximately 95 km southwest of Madrid.

The municipality contains a church consecrated to the Assumption of Our Lady (Iglesia de la Asunción de Nuestra Señora).

## Etymology

The word Illán derives from the Latin Iulianus. The town's name stems from the worship of San Illán or San Julián ("Saint Julian"). The word de simply means "of". The last word, Vacas, despite its current meaning in Spanish – namely "cows" – apparently has an Arabic origin, deriving from a word Wakka. In a document from the latter half of the 16th century, it says that the town's name is "Vacas", and that a fortunate man named Illán lived there.

## History

In the past, the town was tied to Los Cerralbos with its beginnings as a workhouse. Illán de Vacas appears in a 1512 document that indicates that three soldiers were captured here. In the 17th century, this hamlet was repopulated with 37 families. In the mid 19th century, it had 22 houses and the municipal budget rose to 2,200 reales, of which 800 reales were used to pay the secretary.

The following table shows the population development between 1996 and 2007 according to data from the Instituto Nacional de Estadística (INE). With 5 inhabitants, according to the INE's 2011 census, Illán de Vacas is one of Spain's two smallest municipalities by population. At one point (1991), it even temporarily became a ghost town.

# Al-Zahraa

Al-Zahraa (Arabic: الزهراء, romanized: az-Zahrāʾ) is a town in northern Syria, administratively part of the A'zaz District of Aleppo Governorate, located northwest of Aleppo. Nearby localities include Tell Rifaat and Mayer to the northeast and Anadan to the south. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics, al-Zahraa had a population of 13,780 in the 2004 census. Al-Zahraa has a predominantly Shia Muslim population and, along with nearby Nubl, forms a small Shia-inhabited pocket in a mostly Sunni Muslim area in the Aleppo Governorate.

## Syrian Civil War

Nubl and al-Zahraa were under siege by the anti-government Free Syrian Army (FSA), al-Nusra Front (al-Qaeda's Syrian branch), and Ahrar al-Sham. Movement out of Nubl was severely curtailed, and it relied on goods being airlifted by the Syrian Army. Although relations between the inhabitants of Nubl and the surrounding villages were normally friendly, during the ongoing Syrian civil war, anti-government supporters from nearby Sunni villages have claimed that Nubl and al-Zahraa hosted pro-government militias that have launched attacks against opposition supporters. There were numerous tit-for-tat kidnappings between Nubl and pro-opposition villages in the vicinity. After months of rebel siege and continuous reciprocal kidnappings, popular committees in the two towns agreed to begin negotiations with Sunni rebels on 27 March 2013. The agreement to negotiate was organised by Kurdish parties from the neighboring Kurd Dagh region, which is controlled by Kurdish fighters of the PYD. The talks were brokered by Kurds, and several kidnapped individuals were freed on both sides.
On 3 February 2016, an offensive by the Syrian Arab Army and Hezbollah ended the siege.
The town came briefly under the control of the Kurdish-led SDF after the withdrawal of pro-Assad forces on November 30, 2024, to evacuate Kurdish IDPs from the Shahba Canton. Afterwards, militants of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham took over.

# Gomukhasana

Gomukhasana (Sanskrit: गौमुखासन; IAST: Gomukhāsana) or Cow Face Pose is a seated asana in hatha yoga and modern yoga as exercise, sometimes used for meditation.

## Etymology and origins

The name comes from the Sanskrit गौ go meaning "cow", मुख mukha meaning "face" or "mouth", and आसन āsana meaning "posture" or "seat". The crossed legs are said to look like a cow's mouth, while the bent elbows supposedly look like a cow's ears.
The pose is ancient as it is described in the Darshana Upanishad (3.3–4), written around the 4th century. It is described within the 84 asanas in the 17th-century Haṭha Ratnāvalī (3.7–20). However, the current form of Gomukhasana with the hands behind the back is mentioned only in such ancient tantric texts as the Ahirbudhnya Samhita. It is sometimes used for meditation and pranayama.

## Description

The pose is entered from kneeling by crossing the legs; the heel of the upper leg is tucked in under the lower thigh near the buttock. The arm on the lower leg side is raised, the forearm bent down, while the other arm reaches down behind the back, the forearm bent up, so the hands can clasp between the shoulder blades.
The sitting position can be modified either by putting a folded blanket on the heels, and if need be also one beneath them.
The pose stretches the shoulders. The hand position can be modified using a strap to extend the reach for those who cannot bring the hands together behind the back. The pose is contra-indicated for people with a rotator cuff injury.
Preparatory poses for Gomukhasana include Baddha Konasana and Garudasana. Counter poses include Dandasana, Paschimottanasana, and Purvottanasana.
