Cariebbean Art, THE LAST DECADE OF THE 20TH CENTURY

When the past century came to a close , the Caribbean art was basking in the international limelight. The 1990s were fertile in the opening of regional exchanges and in terms of major world-class exhibition events. The Caribbean plastic arts had…

Contemporary Art in NICARAGUA

I remember that a few years ago information on Central America’s artistic scene was scarce and misleading. On nations like Nicaragua, it used to be far more disappointing. No wonder one of the exhibits that tried to scour certain zones of the…

VOICES LIKE ECHOES

The fact that America is a young people is borne out, first of all, by the very history of the United States. The arch of sense that would fundamentally span from the 2000 to the 2008 presidential elections speaks plentiful volumes about the youth…

Elusive PARAGUAY

The invisibility of Paraguay’s arts in the world scene is not under discussion; it’s a fact. A shroud of silence wraps the country’s cultural creation. Even in the South Cone, Paraguay is still draped under a heavy haze, barely known for the…

Jose Bedia:Our obligation of going cross-cultural

Jose Bedia has never bee n properly an artis t. He ’s never wanted to be. Either way, he’s always been trying to avoid it, to escape from art just like any hounded animal in peril would do. Just as much as one of those deer or foxes splayed in his…

As I read on Visible and Invisible, I imagine the exceptional hand of Pedro de Oraa –the hand of a painter and author, making sure this appraisal doesn’t lean solely to one side– assisted by profound thinking and abundant reflexive power.

TO SEE THE SPIRIT

I ignore whether curating a book –organize it, be responsible for all its images and vignettes, for all texts both critical and informative– may hamper someone from writing a review about it.

VANITIES AND RHIZOMES

El Observatorio de Línea (Ediciones Union, 2008) is an anti-academic book. I guess it’s the most bohemian book I’ve ever read and that enthralls me. I can’t help it. Elvia Rosa Castro gives herself all the green lights in the world: plenty of…

Traveling with Camejo

A city vision, in which the light draws the full scope of the night, is the image that serves as backdrop for this book entitled “Luis Enrique Camejo Vento.”
