Post 1. A Country I'd Like to visit

  

I would like to visit Mexico. Since I was a kid and I saw "El chavo del ocho" and "Cantinflas" catches me atention mexico and his culture. Also I like his indian side. I would like see the buildings of the oldest cultures, such as: mayas, zapotecas, toltecas.

I know mexico have many museums of different types: art, history, sciences, etc...
In the DF, capital of mexico I would like see the murals at UNAM. These murals were painted by big artist between these David Alfaro Siqueiros, Diego Rivera, Jose Chávez. Other place I would visit is the Palace of Fine Arts, it is a very large and eclectic building. It has a very good collection of art.
Also I would like traveller across the towns and citys small. I think in those places you can better see the culture of each country.

I would go to see different places in Mexico, but surely take advantage of work (drawing, painting, archive during the trip) and I would like to exhibit in mexico some of my work.

here the mural "El pueblo a la universidad, la universidad al pueblo" by David Alfaro Siqueiros.

Post "Favourite song or music album"

My favourite album is Gling Gló by Björk released in 1990, is an álbum that mix music folck with jazz.
Björk is a singer of Iceland, she is a very special artist, she studied classic music,
and she graduated as pianist. Since her childhood, Björk stood out among everyone else for her talent. At the twelve years published his first album named "Björk".
I remember that when listened Gling Gló the first time, this was very different and entertaining,. the disc have many very good songs such as: "Bílavísur",
"Það sést ekki sætari mey" and " Í dansi með þér" only for name some.
In this album Björk was accompanied by three jazz musicians, (pianist, drummer, bassist), they are very talented.
This album was hard find in Chile when it was released; in these times (without internet) you have to buy the discs. I knew this record the year 94 or 95 after the disc "Debut" of bjork, also a big album.
I bought the disc in persa Bio-bio.

This is one of the great songs of the disc:

The best concert I went, is one of the Fabulosos Cadillacs, 2010 I think. It was at Club Hipico in Santiago. I went with a friend and my cousin. This concert was the return of  Los Cadillacs after their separation. This was a highly anticipated concert. Los Cadillacs are a Argentina band hat was born in the 80s and play rock music mixed with ska. S   ome of his songs are about failed love affairs and other political.Is my favourite band.
At that concert had many people, some 70,000, allmost all in court. We were very near the stage, about 25 meters. Before of Cadillacs, played Chico Trujillo and Los Tres. They are good bands but everyone expected to Los Fabulosos Cadillacs.
During the concert they played many classic songs, some new versions. Several of my favorite as the fifth anniversary, carmela, strawberry fields forever.
It was a great concert, now this year they played again, I already have my tickets!!!

Blog 3 Favourite Artist

I have not a favourite artist but I like the work of Dittborn.
Eugenio Dittborn Santa Cruz is a Chilean artist
He was born in nineteen forty three in Santiago, Chile
He studied art at Universidad de Chile, where he studied painting, drawing and engraving.
His work is caractherized by used the wide possibilities of the engraving and the graphic:
serigraph, photographic print....
He uses images coming from different places and times: police images, books, archives, images of the media. Then Dittborn takes and moves these images to the art.

He is a contemporary artist, his work is very important in the Chilean art.
My favourite work is the airmails paintings, this is one of them.

 

Here Dittborn mixes some images from magazines of different types and other from books about artists and incorporates texts the works.
The art today is not necessary that represents a particular idea or that represents things, I think that this have to search establish relations between differents things.
I remember a few years ago in the museum saw some works and liked by the origin of their images, mixing and by size.
