Once upon a time ..
It is a long time I have not writed anything;ok I am very busy by my work but that is not the main thing,The real true is that I dont like the chess world too much that days:Fischer and Larsen passed away,Kasparov dont play anymore,and kids of 12 years with names I dont care to remember are winning tournaments!
Still soon I will be back!For the time being looks at the girl above isn't chess a pleasant game?
Kiss to girls,hanshake to boys.

strip chess
Some time ago I wrote an article about strip -chess,(a nice way to promote chess,imagine Anand or Kasparov,,,No please forget this).dont be mislead the picture above is from Man Ray and feature Marcel Duchamp who was a french surrealist and chess Champion(there is an article on him in the blog)I always thought Surrealism and Chess are connected, for example Raymond Roussel (impression d'Afrique)wrote a method to checkmate king with Bishop and Knight
