ESTRUCTURAS NARRATIVAS Y EL ARTE DE LA CONSPIRACIÓN:

Estos preciosos Mapas Conceptuales pertenecen a la obra del fallecido Mark Lombardi, que él mismo llamaba ESTRUCTURAS NARRATIVAS.

Para mí su trabajo fué como el de un explorador, que enmarcaba su atención, no en un lugar físico, sino en un área virtual de influencia extrema para la construcción de la realidad: a través de los mass media oficiales, en concreto las noticias de los periódicos más relevantes del planeta, creaba estas ESTRUCTURAS NARRATIVAS que visibilizaban vínculos y las redes entre los máximo poderes mundiales.

Y el resultado es el escándalo mismo, tanto que muchos aseguran que su suicidio fué en realidad un asesinato.

“A few weeks after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, an FBI agent called the Whitney Museum of American Art and asked to see a drawing on exhibit there. The piece was by Mark Lombardi, an artist who had committed suicide the year before. Using just a pencil and a huge sheet of paper, Lombardi had created an intricate pattern of curves and arcs to illustrate the links between global finance and international terrorism. “

Una prueba de que el trabajo llamado conceptual o abstracto, también puede contribuir a tambalear los cimientos de algunas injusticias contemporáneas.

El grupo de artistas urbanos españoles, Boa Mistura se ha ido a Sao Paulo (Brasil) para participar en un precioso proyecto en las Favelas, Belleza - Orgullo - Gracia - Firmeza - Amor, han sido las cinco palabras con las que han decorado algunos de los estrechos callejones de la Favela “Vila Brasilandia” en Sao Paulo. Usando la técnica de la anamorfosis, los cinco artistas de Madrid fueron ayudados por niños y habitantes del lugar a pintar los suelos y paredes del barrio. Bonitas obras tanto por su significado como por su resultado.

BOA MISTURA

ondinia:

Starting on Friday, November 13, 1998, 178 trees were wrapped with 592,015 square feet (55,000 square meters) of woven polyester fabric (used every winter in Japan to protect trees from frost and heavy snow) and 14.3 miles (23 kilometers) of rope. The wrapping was completed on November 22.

The trees are located in the park around the Fondation Beyeler and in the adjacent meadow as well as along the creek of Berower Park, northeast of Basel, at the German border. The height of the trees varied between 82 feet (25 meters) and 6.5 feet (2 meters) with a diameter from 47.5 feet (14.5 meters) to 3.3 feet (1 meter).

As they have always done, Christo and Jeanne-Claude paid the expenses of the project themselves through the sale of original works to museums, private collectors and galleries. The artists do not accept any sponsorship.

The wrapping was removed on December 14, 1998 and the materials were recycled.

Christo and Jeanne-Claude have worked with trees for many years: In 1966,Wrapped Trees was proposed for the park adjacent to the Saint Louis Art Museum, Missouri, and the permission was denied. In 1969, the artists requested permission for Wrapped Trees, Project for 330 Trees, Avenue des Champs-Élysées, Paris. This was denied by Maurice Papon, Prefect of Paris. The Wrapped Trees in Riehen were the outcome of 32 years of effort.

The branches of the Wrapped Trees pushed the translucent fabric outward and created dynamic volumes of light and shadow and moving in the wind with new forms and surfaces shaped by the ropes on the fabric.

What happens when a thousand oil cans decide to fly?

Jugaad explored this idea through a celebratory and constantly evolving process of re-purposing and redefining the cooking oil can. The project borrows its name from a hindi term which refers to attaining any objective with the available resources at hand. Over a period of three months, discarded oil cans were used as a vehicle to explore ideas of sustainability, recycling and re-purposing with 90 other residents from Rajokri, an urban village in New Delhi. Using grass root ingenuity, Jugaad reincarnated 945 such cans into a free-standing shade canopy spread over 70 square metres.

TADASHI KAWAMATA

Tadashi Kawamata es un artista japonés que hace instalaciones con madera así de potentes

Ayer en clase, mientras nos hablaban de la carta solar, y de las posibilidades de jugar con la iluminación, descubrí este pequeño pabellón hecho de paneles de cartón perforados que hacen que, según se va desplazando el Sol a lo largo del día (bueno, él no, la que se mueve es la Tierra…), se van dibujando pequeños poemas de luz…
