One night in Mar del Plata

Image: Felix Busso.

Friends of the home (And neighbors!), photographer Felix Busso and illustrator Feroz Babun presented tonight “I like Mar del Plata”, under exposure Summer Workshop Documents Light and Power.

Will be 19 about 23, the end of the day arteBA, in The Factory cultural space (Peru 442, San Telmo).

With winter breathing down our necks and the weekend is gray, seems a good opportunity to escape to the beach, at least in the mind. There is more to say about the city of sea lions, but there will be time after the sample.

Inspiration XV: Sao Paulo, Curitiba, Rio de Janeiro

Photos: Paula Alvarado.

Around this time of the year, in 2011, I took a trip from which I came back as inspired as confused.

This trip through Brazil was a different one, one in which I could incorporate references, ideas and visuals, but in which I identified and valued, as well, many wonderful things Buenos Aires that one takes for granted. The human scale of the city, the incipient but unstoppable cycling culture, the number of small and self-managed art and culture spaces, are a few that come to mind.

The Brazilians have their share: I think about their economic strength, their artisan tradition, their colors and warmth. I think these are well reflected in the pictures I share below, highlights of my stay in Sao Paulo, Curitiba and Rio de Janeiro.

Dealing with the absence of magic productivity

Photo: Hart Preston for Life.

If the ideas that run through the brain during anxiety attacks could be materialized by telepathy (a signal to an assistant who would execute to perfection without any questions, for example), BA Inspiration would have a lovely new look now, several new articles and other novelties. And I surely would have done much more than I did in recent weeks.

But I have not yet mastered intentional telepathy (I do it very well randomly) and there is work to be finished and my head is hanging out closer to the location of the picture above than the streets of Buenos Aires. So I'll invest a little compost in cultivating that odd thing called patience and leave everything for May.

I hope everyone is starting Autumn with good energy.

PS: I'm going to Sao Paulo, Curitiba and Rio, and all suggestions of galleries, design spaces, parks, beaches, etc.. are welcome.

A night at the French Embassy

As it has become usual for me, when I visited the French Embassy yesterday for the launch of the French cinema week, Les avant-premières, I got more distracted looking at the interiors of the Ortiz Basualdo Palace than doing other things perhaps more relevant to the event.
