Small wonder Jesus film Inostroza hunting the heart of the country


Photo (c) Martin Thomas (Inostroza a protest with relatives of the disappeared)
in full presidential campaign of Ricardo Lagos, I got a poster with about 7 people pictures in different parts of Chile. Nowhere left the candidate, or other type of propaganda, as a Chilean flag in the hands of a group of children, was an appeal to the heart of the country portrayed in the faces, smiles and glances, the country we dream of building. The poster ended up stuck in the window of my house.

The photographer was Jesus Inostroza . Master of the capture emotional Hunting passing moment to be a moment for a picture that moves, and thus achieve that transcends the simplicity of the human being the greatness of walking down a street in Santiago or lean to look out a window in any field of our country.

From what I know of his work, photographs are more journalistic, but that reporting with literature and poetry, go here text to lines, colors and looks of a beautiful image. I have not been on display or in collections of books, only photographs of those of the first presidents of our democracy, in a picture of a newspaper or other another poster out there.

I am of those who was moved to Inostroza and work. Some pics of it (the volume without your permission, but I need to share the world).

100 Popsicle Stick Ideas

The secret of those eyes



Of those eyes that looked beyond the common history and traced the winding story-telling of justice, love and human beings. " The secret of his eyes " the great jewel.

Where was the justice that is lost in the invisible powers that have ravaged our continent and is now tinged with a different tone. Where's the justice in the midst of my fears, and fits of loneliness absurd, for love I'm procrastinating. Where is the justice, quenching, which quiet, the braking.

The Secret of Their Eyes , English Argentine excellent work in our cinemas. A script like a brick of solid and strong direction as the threads that tie the dialogues of this movie.

Raw. Strong. With humor and overwhelming. A gift to the senses. A parenthetical thought.

Why The Crescent Shape Hole On An Outhouse?

Goodbye to the little Rockstar!



As if by magic awoke in Santiago. How magically his uncle came to our city to look. This is how the story wove these huge puppets through the streets of our city, becoming a revolution among those who attend to watch it.

Unlike his previous visit, this time I could see her walk across the country. And gee, that fortune was so great to appreciate cultural intervention, not only intervention in the streets, but also the emotions of their inhabitants.

Thus the Little Giant Diving Bell and Uncle, I was struck by her beauty and sophistication. In his quiet walk in the breaks to cool off or take a nap, in his curious look to "other curious" we were on the sidewalk watching and in his staging that promises more than a simple story, but in a magic rather than permanent.

On the Park Almagro surfing or sleeping next to a geyser in front of the Mercado Central, were part of this trip, which is walk the streets, became a journey of symbols of the city and its structure. La Moneda, the Alameda, the Parque O'Higgins, the Plaza de Armas, among others, are constitutive of our identity, with the passage of the giants greeted the heart of our beloved Chile.

Tenderness and magic, shining among those with flags, headbands and credentials of the fans club official doll hanging from his neck, shouting, when rock star when it was coming. The passion grew even more, when the puppet head down, looking and waving their lying eyes of standing applause.

And if it is to summarize the landscape of the moment, talk of children on the shoulders of their parents surprised enthusiasts shouted a hello, while on the streets parallel real living marathons to buy time and wait for a block before reach the small.

in our country have a company like Royal de Luxe, no less, and well he knew the public intervened and took every street tv broadcasts to keep in step so sublime visits. A strong show that revived the excitement of the city collective recovery of public space of the culture of a people who enjoy art mature in the streets, to understand that magic is to want to believe and not afraid to clap hard and scream their lungs. A show to thank for having lived. And a time to say goodbye to these characters, true rockstar who came to shake the heart of Chile.

What Does Cm Look Like The Day Before Your Period

Too bad it's soul ... Clowns of Hope conversation with Sebastian Silva



Gabriela said what the soul does for the body, the artist does for the people . That must be why I know so sad to hear the Violeta sing that punishment is the soul, when his music as curtain falls softly on the dark stage theater. Singing is done live and painful to see this photograph of the wounded soul of my country a few years ago.

And yesterday I went to see The Clowns of Hope and still can not get out of the cloud of nostalgia engulfed me during the whole work.

For those who sit in the chair to watch the show, you will find three clowns marginal late 70's, sitting and waiting. Three artists living together in misery and insisting on the art and craft. Hallullas artists worthy as a shared, satiating minutes and great on the sign of solidarity. Artists who were born with a heart full of talent and can not deny its nature scenic or his appreciative audience. Because no matter if the cough hits you, no matter the hole, shovel and insult, no matter the smile not sore. What matters. If it is the spirit that says you are an artist, you're a pretty tony to go to soup kitchens and slits girls laugh. Tony you are a decent, not a camp assistants, not a beggar. That lives with laughter, but this will be limited, as when your feet hurt from walking and hand dig and keep digging, but still you keep laughing, or when the chest gets you the pain of seeing your mother is consumed in oblivion and you manage to replace that smile, puffing his chest and continue to build from your wealth, they are only your talent.

That hurt was my Chile, beaten in the poverty of the artist proud of his art and indignant of their misery. That sentence was the Chilean soul when wove this work, ending the 70, when I was born in the midst of this poverty of mud, parishes and urban neighborhoods, and saw him go to a Santa Claus, a clown and a number that made us laugh the innocence of childhood.

What the artist does for the town was dying. Were killing him. The soul of Chile had a penalty. A great pity.

The text of this book is universal, reborn 30 years later and keeping the flavor of the beans of the season. Poetry texts, performances, lectures and magic to move your emotions. A tribute to the survival of a country in pain, like I was a pussy girl and did not understand the pressure my country miserable living in those days.
