My future job

Well, today I 'm going to talk about a delicate matter. The last time I 've been thinking because this is my last year in my career and it is about time to work.

At university, I've taken visual arts bachelor. I taked this career because I was curious about art. I intuited the art was not I learned in the school. I wasn't wrong. The art is really strange, I feel I still do not understand very well. For this reason, I 'm not convinced work as an artist. For me is more real continue work as yoga teacher for children. I work in this before of study at university.

I like my work and I would like continue because I like teach to children, they are funny and always surprise me. I enjoy the class although I have a lot of gray for the time that make me rage.

Even so, I would like have other work. Maybe, I will work in a pottery workshop where make objects to sell. I like this idea because I love the pottery. I met when I had the pottery subject in the career and I discovered its magic, because the result always is a surprise.

If this does not happen, only I would like work with nice people, have a good salary, not to exploit me and not stop learning...

My favourite music album

Hi today I'm going to talk about a great album named "Alturas de Machu pichu" of the musical group Los Jaivas, released in 1981.

The album has the same name that the poem of Pablo Neruda because this poem was the inspiration for the group. The poem was written when Neruda visited Machu pichu and it was published in 1950.

This album was born of the idea of Daniel Camina, a Peruvian musical producer. He proposed to the group to make this album and made a film where the musicians played in Machu Pichu. The group was delayed 9 months to create "Alturas de Machu Pichu". For this film, they have to put the piano in an helicopter and was prensented by Mario Vargas Llosa.

I think that the experience of these musicians is a luxury, because now nobody can be uncroweded at this location and less play music. I think that above all for the pianist was a luxuury because I think is a madness to climb a piano.


Well, I know this album since I was a child, when I travelled in the car with my family and we listened to them to not get bored.

I like this album because I feel calm and I active my imagination. The music really transports me to Machu Pichu, place I would like to visit.

Below is the film so you can watch it.

A favourite piece of art

Well, In the art I like the pieces with politic critiques as the pieces of Santiago Sierra. But, in this occasion I 'm going to talk about "Tucuman Arde", a piece of art created the year 1968 in Rosario, Argentina, for a multidisciplinary colective. The members were artists, sociologists, students, etc. 

In this time, Argentina lived a dictatorship that closed the factorys in Tucuman. It generated poverty of the workers and their families that the mass media not informed. Waht's more, the artists were exploring the limits of arts, questioning the art's institution. In this context, this colective decided to use the situation grave of Tucuman peolple for criticise the dictatorship as the art.

The piece consisted of 3 parts. In the first part, a group of the colective went to Tucuman from Rosario for meet the reality politics and social of the people. There they filmed, interviewed, photographed and surveied to the jobless, children and women, documents for a exposition in a sindical place. Meanwhile in Rosario, other group did propaganda in the street for a week with stencil that only said "Tucuman Arde" and also they pasted poster that said " 1º bienal de arte de vanguardia". Then this week of propaganda, in a sindical seat  they inaugurated the exposition. All the walls had photograph, information of desnutrition of childrens, etc. Also served coffee without sugar. The exhibition dured two weeks and was very successful.

This work I knew in a subject oh latinoamercan art. I liked because it is in a delicate limit between the art and the political, a uncomfortable space.
