Text of the page (random words):
ks and artifacts rescued from the building friends of notre dame this is the official organisation that has raised money for the restoration that was underway this is the donation page on its website apparently more than 2 million 1 7m has been raised in less than 24 hours for the rebuild through an official website it pre dates the fire was already helping to fund the restoration and has offices in both france and the usa the website explains the curious arrangements which led to this situation and why president macron was so very prominent at the fire last night as a result of a french law passed in 1905 the cathedral became the property of the french state but its use is dedicated exclusively to the roman catholic rite entrance is free of charge it is classified as a french historic monument as owner and project manager the french ministry of culture is responsible for regular maintenance repairs and renovation of the building up unto this point all work was financed by the french state but because of budgetary changes the state no longer wishes to assume the burden of financing desperately needed repairs for this reason the archbishop of paris in concert with the diocese of paris have created the friends of notre dame de paris my recommendation would be to donate direct to the organisation already set up for the purposes of restoring the cathedral the rose window in the south transept 2009 which is now very dirty but appears to have survived support from international sources usa the u s branch of the friends of notre dame see above is a 501c3 public charity making all gifts tax deductible for u s contributors the new york based french heritage society has launched a notre dame fire restoration fund it is a 501 c 3 charitable organization and donations are tax deductible for american taxpayers its eleven chapters in the u s and one in paris have supported the restoration of nearly 600 buildings and gardens since 1982 guided by the belief that the most enduring expression of a culture is to pass on its highest achievements french heritage society is dedicated to protecting the french architectural and cultural legacy both in france and the united states with emphasis on raising funds for preservation restoration and education basilica of the national shrine washington d c those americans who prefer to contribute via the catholic church need to note that the largest roman catholic church in north america has launched its own fundraising campaign apple has indicated it intends to support the restoration uk i m unclear what is being set up in the uk to help fund the restoration i imagine this might be led by the church and the cardinal of westminster but who knows online as you can imagine various small projects have been set up to fund the restoration on go fund me however you can be assured that go fund me will be making very sure that the funds will not be released by go fund me until confirmation has been received that transfers will be made to the right people since the news broke last night hundreds of campaigns have been launched by people wanting help rebuild notre dame as ever on gofundme we are in full control of funds until we are absolutely sure that they will get to the right place communications manager john coventry posted by making a mark on tuesday april 16 2019 0 comments categories art history monday april 15 2019 the destruction of notre dame only the stone will remain the destruction of notre dame it s absolutely tragic watching a huge and very fierce fire burning in notre dame de paris which is gutting the building many many people in paris and around the world are watching as huge flames burst through what was the roof both sides of the seine are lined with thousands of people watching the fire very many people watching the sad scene the spire and roof have already been lost the vaulted roof was completed in 1208 le monde s coverage has some truly devastating footage update 8 50pm saving notre dame is not certain according to the french interior ministry they can t use water bombs as that makes collapse of the structure more likely 9 15pm bbc reporting that it s being said in paris that there is a distinct possibility the whole structure will collapse tuesday 9 15am a french reporter in paris is reporting that all the medieval stained glass in three of the rose windows has melted and done except for the one above the portal main entrance have gone see the link to my photos below which include two photos of the rose windows midday it becomes apparent that the rose windows have not melted and appear to just be smoke damaged 5 45pm see restoration of cathédrale notre dame de paris how to donate the spire prior to its destruction the flèche or spire of the cathedral which was destroyed in the april 2019 fire was located over the transept and altar the original spire was constructed in the 13th century probably between 1220 and 1230 it was battered weakened and bent by the wind over five centuries and finally was removed in 1786 during the 19th century restoration eugène viollet le duc decided to recreate it making a new version of oak covered with lead the entire spire weighed 750 tons following viollet le duc s plans the spire was surrounded by copper statues of the twelve apostles in four groups of three one group at each point of the compass wikipedia the spire has collapsed into the cathedral tons of dry wood in the timber rafters and tiles will have collapsed onto the thin vaulted roof which may also have been lost update parts of the vaulting have been lost presumably when the spire crashed the bbc has just said that the cathedral on the island where paris began will be devastated the wooden parts of interior will be completely lost a number of priceless artefacts may not have been removed in time the stained glass will also be lost due to the heat it s already melting and it seems very likely all will be lost update the great rose windows of the transepts have gone the stained glass has melted it s possible that nothing will be left of this cathedral by the time the fire is put out update the stone is still standing the cathedral has its skeleton left and will be rebuilt you can see my photos of the cathedral in 2009 on facebook which includes views of the interior yet again it s awful to see a major iconic building under renovation be destroyed by a fire the cause of the fire is not known but it s reasonable to suppose it s something to do with the works from the other side of the seine before the spire went posted by making a mark on monday april 15 2019 0 comments categories architecture art history sunday april 14 2019 commission an artist home is where the art is episodes 1 5 if you re interested in the artwork produced by artists pitching for a commission in the bbc s new afternoon show home is where the art is you can find out below what their names are links to their website and social media who they are and what they do how to contact them patricia lee right with the work commissioned by her client left i wrote about the bbc s new show in home is where the art is needs a makeover in which i highlighted some concerns one of these was the absence of any name credit in text in the programme for all those saying that the names are said in the programme so why do they need the credits well a number of reasons to respect the work of professionals just as the credits at the end of the programme respect the work of the people behind the scenes who make the programme two of the three are unpaid and providing a named credit is fair exchange for the many hours given for free to make content for the bbc otherwise it s the equivalent of working for free for the exposure but without the exposure in terms of a name to enable people to find you the names might be said but nobody spells them out in the first week there are three artists where i had to keep replaying the segment to listen to the names again and again and even then finally identified them using information from elsewhere in the programme eg gallery windermere paintings cattle got one of them the bbc is hypocritical and ignores its own rules when it suits it such as making sure it gets great guests on the graham norton show because they are only there to promote their latest whatever and always do i feel a letter to the radio times coming on ps i feel like making a plea for rather less chainsaw wood sculpting commission an artist links to websites and key social media are provided if the website has a commissions page this is included contact links are embedded in the name it s really interesting to see the different way people approach providing information about commissions and which are obviously more experienced at working to commission i m going to be updating this listing each sunday with all the artists from the episodes in the previous week week one episode 1
