The last exhibition I went.

I go to few exhibitions in did. I would like go to much galleries and museums but really I don’t make me the necessary time for it because I prefer do many other things. Maybe when I finish my career often I will go to exhibitions often.

The last exhibition I went it was on November, a day when I was near to the Centro Cultural Gabriela Mistral and I seized the opportunity to see what were on exhibition. It was entitled “INFORME PAIS”, where twelve visual artists, Chileans, Argentines, Peruvian and Bolivian, explored the concept “imagen-país”.

I found it very interesting because it’s a very contingent matter that has much to say since some years ago. It was attractive to see how the art works talks with different and international points of view.

I think that this art works were very ingenious, it was made for this exhibition specially, where it showed different techniques, photography, installations, paintings, audiovisual,; a kind of conceptual art that made a critic to the country, in geographical, cultural and social terms. It talked about the imaginary that we create about our country can be an unconscious fictional speech that we believe in, but in fact it’s very very fragile because in any moment an earthquake can snatch and destroy a big part of the geography, and protests or social demands can create crisis on social systems (as the general protest of students).

I think I enjoy it, specially because I didn’t went to some exhibition in looooooong time. I hope in the future go to more exhibitions :)

The Guardian talks about The 360 Project

In the culture section of The Guardian webpage, there is an article about “The 360 degree dance project” by Judith Mackrell (the Guardian dance critic). I chose this one because I knew about this project some time ago and I became interested for it very much. I like this kind of projects and creative ideas, where several disciplines can be mixed to get a innovative product which can be useful for many others ideas, to make them grow. For me there are great inspiration sources.

At first, this article relate Degas art of dancers and three-dimensional photography of Francois Willème with the work of Eadweard Muybridge, who capture the movement by stop-motion;all this as a kind of precedent for what Ryan Enn Hughes has been doing.

He put into practice technology of digital photography, audiovisual, editing, design, for make portraits in movement of ballet dancers and hip hop dancers with a 360 degree view.

The author is interested in how this project shows specific moments of the body which it get more intense and can express “a sense of intensity and immediacy” by the capture. It is like an explosion of energy that the movement of the body dancing can reflect. That’s because the author think that as Degas, this project managed the vivid expression of movement.

France, England, Scotland, New Zeland and South Korea

This post is similar to others that we have done before. I already tell that I love to travel and I want go to many places. I like France because have something in its history that enchanted me. I just know universal history ,some historic hitos and some prominent people. I studied a bit French and I like it very much. I want learn and speak it in good level.

I like England and Scotland, maybe for the same reason. Also I want to travel around the landscapes and knew the culture of this countries. Other country I want go is New Zeland, because its nature and ladscapes. I have a friend who lives there, and we both wants to visit her sometime in the future and go around New Zeland. Last time I have a particular interest for South Korea, specially Seoul. Because I knew its music and something of the culture. I like this city and its buildings.

I just want make much money and spend it traveling , meeting places and people who makes worth it.

About tatoos.

I like tattoos. I don’t have any, not for any special reason but I haven’t chance for done it until now. I like the idea of decorating the body, but like all in life, tattoo have to be handled delicately, I thing tattoo can make body as something really beautiful, but many people turn their bodies something grotesque.

Some people do it because think that it is cool or following trends, other people do it because it is a way for identify their with a sub-culture or with gangs. But others make it for some special reason related with their religion or personal experiences.

Anyway, I think tattoo is a way we choose to identify our self.

I would like to make me a tattoo, want at least. I have been thinking about it a lot of time and I have some ideas but I don’t decide yet, because I want something really special for me. If I will mark my body it have to be important forever. I don’t worry too much about the pain, it will be just for a short time.
