Cinco décadas en espiral es una retrospectiva inversa del trabajo de la artista mexicana Magali Lara.La exposición al MUAC (Ciudad de Mexico abril-octubre 2025) inicia con los murales que realizó para la muestra y concluye con sus primeros dibujos de las decadas de 1980 y 1970.Como la linea inconclusa en fuga de la espiral, la muestra revisa la busqueda artistica y espacial de Lara a lo largo de su produccion, es decir, como genera un lugar formal, plastico y afectivo para proponer un territorio propio. Su obra, a partir de una configuracion concreta, manifiesta una pulsion por aprehender una asociacion arrolladora de formas. Desde el inicio de su trabajo se ha interesado por la nocion del espacio opuesto, el remanente que subyace en ausencia. Su investigacion ha abordado de que manera significar el blanco del lienzo y del papel, y como denotar las pausas y los silencios imperceptibles entre pinceladas y gestos, asi como los vacios minusculos que sobresalen entre palabras e imagenes. Su experimentacion artistica es la exploracion de un lugar que nunca concluye, que se prolonga en espiral, esbozando un rastro en negativo que se abre y amplia hacia otras narrativas. La muestra enfatiza la indagacion en ese ritmo que emerge desde los margenes y que conforma su propia perspectiva: "Es posible que un dibujo contenga un relato de la misma manera que una frase dice en lo no dicho". Los intervalos e intersticios sobresalen entre los elementos compositivos dentro del soporte y, tambien, entre el propio marco y la pared que lo enmarca. La pieza siempre esta en relacion con, detenida en un contexto expandido que la connota y la situa, palpitando de forma permanente entre el afuera y el adentro.

¿Por qué vemos [tanto] cine? Lo cierto es que ya no podemos pensar en esa bulimia audiovisual con la residual y anacrónica metodología de la crítica cinematográfica, ni con la grandilocuencia de muchas de las Grandes Teorias, interesantes pero obsoletas, ni con los prejuicios inculcados por un Sistema Universitario desprovisto de sentido critico.Para aprender algo de nosotros mismosa traves del cine, paramejorar nuestra forma de imaginarnos, deberemos antes orillar la autocomplacencia y proponer discursos y metodologias que tambien puedan atraer a las nuevas generaciones.

This small book has been put together at the request of the ardent railfan in the family, who happened to see one of these interesting prints. It is intended for teaching such younger railfans not only in history, but also science and art and the commentary and criticism is kept at this level. This work does not presume to be in any way exhaustive of the railroad subject. Japan's railroads started with two miniature steam locomotives introduced from abroad. The first arrived in Nagasaki on a Russian ship in 1853, while the second came to Yokohama in 1854 aboard one of Commodore Perry's black ships. Ukiyo-e artists especially Hiroshige III began churning out colorful and sometimes fanciful renderings of the bizarre smoke-belching machines. The father showing a locomotive to his son is very charming. Later followed prints with locomotives overturned in the Great Kanto Earthquake and a Russian locomotive that had gone through the ice on Lake Baikal during he Russo-Japanese War. After this trains came to occupy Japanese prints and Japanese art much in the same way European artists have always adored them. The authors include a few examples of other art work, ending with Shinkansen.

Este libro presenta un extenso panorama de viajeros británicos en Sevilla desde principios del siglo XVIII hasta mediados del XIX. Personajes conocidos como el poeta Lord Byron, el artista David Roberts o el hispanofilo por excelencia, Richard Ford, aparecen junto a otras figuras identificadas aqui por primera vez, y juntos forman un grupo mas variado en genero, edad, clase social y ascendencia que el que habia servido hasta ahora para definir la percepcion britanica del rico patrimonio arquitectonico sevillano. Mas alla del repertorio visual de los libros de viaje de la epoca y sus dibujos originales, este estudio pone de relieve cartas y diarios ineditos para sustentar un catalogo que reune las experiencias de una veintena de viajeros, dando voz a varias mujeres y a algunos hombres jovenes cuyos itinerarios y vivencias eran practicamente ineditos.

This book is going to revolutionize the way we understand Vermeer Peter CareyThe paintings of Johannes Vermeer of Delft are some of the most beautiful even sublime in the history of art Yet like the life of Vermeer himself they are mysterious and have for centuries defied explanation Following new leads and drawing on a mass of historical evidence some of it freshly uncovered in the archives of Delft and Rotterdam Andrew Graham Dixon paints a dramatically new picture of Vermeer revealing many of the painter s hitherto unknown friendships as well as his previously undetected allegiance to a radical movement driven underground by persecution He also vividly evokes the world of the Dutch Republic as it was in its so called Golden Age This was a watery world of fortresses and flood plains taverns rocked by argument and cities stunned by devastating attacks and explosions all linked by a network of canals where a uniquely efficient public transport system operated by horse drawn passenger barge enabled people goods and ideas to glide effortlessly from one place to another The author sets Vermeer firmly in the context of his time revealing the patterns of patronage that make sense of his work and also exposing the difficulties posed by his home life whic
