Luis Fonsi - Despacito ft. Daddy Yankee
Music Appreciation
The Latin pop song Despacito by Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi and featuring Daddy Yankee was released on January 12, 2017.
The song was written by Fonsi, Daddy Yankee and Erika Ender, Brazilian Panamanian singer and songwriter. It was originally composed as a cumbia and pop song, but it was decided to add an "urban injection." The sensual lyrics are implicit with many allegories.
Puerto Rican director Carlos Perez directed the music video for Despacito featuring Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee and 2006 Miss Universe and Puerto Rico native Zuleyka Rivera. The music video received a Latin Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video and a Billboard Music Award for Top Streaming Song (Video).
A remix version, which featured Justin Bieber singing in the Spanish for the first time, help propel the song's chart performance.

Johannes Zick
Art Appreciation
Born in Lachen, Switzerland on January 10, 1702, Johannes Zick was a German painter during the Baroque period known for his frescoes and religious themed paintings.
He started his career as a blacksmith. It's said his work was discovered by a traveling painter. From 1721 to 1724, he was apprenticed to Jacob Carl Stauder. During his time as an apprentice, they painted the frescoes of the Church of Mariahilf in Munich.
In 1728, he moved his family to Munich where he was appointed court painter to Prince Bishop Duke Johann Theodor of Bavaria.
Later in his years, he became somewhat an interior decorator painting frescoes on the ceiling of St. Martin's Church in Biberach an der Riß, a town in southern Germany, at the Würzburg Residence, a palace southeast of Frankfurt, and furnishing the residence of Prince Bishops of Speyer in Bruchsal.
