My Future Job (?)


Hi guys!
Today I’m writing about of my dreamed future job… finally a simple question!

I think when I finish the University I like to work in the restoration of many different pieces of art. In general this is a job indoor, because the pieces need a special condition for his conservation but you can travel around the world if the pieces are in other countries. I will like travel around the world for my job.

In this moment I am student of Theory and history of Art, in this career I have class of restoration but is not enough if I would like be a professional in this area. For this reason I think is necessary study some kind of post grade after this career, for example, a master grade. I would like be a specialist in textile art, restoration of paper or oil paints. I like the restoration of ceramic too.

For study of restoration is ideally travel to Europe, for example Italy, France or Spain because the most of the pieces was made in this continent and the technic of restoration was born here. In Latin America some of the most important countries in this area are Mexico and Peru because they have a strong love for his tradition and for this reason they pretend keep this his master pieces in the time.

OKEY!

This is all for today, see you soon.

Contemporary art :/

Hi guys! 

Today I'm talking about of Contemporary Art. I think it is a very complicated subject because I never felt that I understand this period, the temporal distance is so small. But I can say that the Contemporary Art is not a complete change of material, actually technics are the same, the change is in the justification of the works is a change of language. In many cases the artist, mixture, classical technics for created a new work or make new questions about of Art or the society.

Es una obra del artistas Rowland Ricketts, esta compuestas por figuras de fieltro teñidas con Indigo.
For this reasons, I think I will to talking about of the Textile Art, because, this is one of the most traditional forms of expression and his evolution to the Contemporary Art made to the Textil Art one of the most wonderful expression of colour and form, although this kind of art is considered by some people like craftwork. 

Anna Kristina Goransson, Felted and dyed woolSome of technics that the artist used for created his works are, the Upholstery, Shibori, Batik, Felt and many others. One of the artist that I love is Rowland Rickett, his works are a mixture of the the Felt and Shibori techniques. I think his work is so harmonic and beautiful.

The best concert!


Hi! Today I'm talking about of the best concert where I went. The truth is, i didn’t go to many concerts, so I don’t have many experiences for telling you.  But I remember when with my family we went to the Viña Festival in the year 2007. I remember especially this concert because all of the siblings of my mom and his families were assembled in Viña, in the house of my uncle.  We went to the Tom Jones’s night because this night apart of this singer, played other group that my family loves, Los Bunkers! One part that I hate is when the singer Mario Guerrero was on the stage, he is so boring!! more than the competition part. Tome Jones was amazing. I remember a couple next to us, they loved Tom Jones, She was pregnant, for this reason after his show They went back home.


The concert in general was god; I saw many famous people and not so famous people too. It was very funny. Before the visit I thought the Quinta Vergara is the biggest theatre on free air, but really is so small.

Well that is all for to day
  See you son.

Country I'd like to visit



Hi again!

I don't write in a blog in much time!! Today I’m talking about of one place in the world I'd like visit. I think that choose is very difficult because are many places I would like visit for different reasons. For example, I would like travel to Thailand, because this country have some of the most beautiful beach in the world!!  But when I think in a place for work or live Italy is my first option.

Italy is a great place if you love the History, especially if you love the History of Art because many of his towns and cities conserve his old glorious buildings and other master pieces of Art. Other good thinks of this country are the food and if you like fashion, you can visit Milan. This city is one of the capitals of fashion.

Personally I would like visit Venetia in the week of carnival or the Fontana di Trevi in Roma. Really I would like see all of the oldest buildings and landscapes of this wonderful country.

Ok that is all for today, see you soon.

The End

Hi everyone,

Today is the last day for write in the blog and the homework is: talk about of our experience writing in a blog! Okey, the truth is, before this blog, I never thought write anything in internet. I said you in other post, the technology is not my BFF, for this reason the blogs or photologs or any of this platforms were not in my plans. But after that I think that write in a blog is not completely bad. When I see my last post and compared with my post now, I can see that my redaction is better, i feel more confortable for write about anything in english and now is more easy write many many words!!
Is not only this, read the post of my partners is funny too, because, although all the class, wrote about the same topics, everyone of us think different and  i think is interesting know how they write about of the things they think or things they like.

Well, I dont know if I continue writing in this or any other blog, because now I not have many time and still is difficult think in a topic for the post, but now my dislike about of technology is not a reason for not write, because if you try a blog can be very funny.

This is all..
I wish see you in other part.

My favorite writer

Hi guys!

Today is time to talking about favourite writers! I love this topic, because I like so much read, for this reason is difficult choose one writer, but if I had to choose, say Jane Austen.
 Jane Austen is one of the most important British writer in the history, She lives in 18th century, but his work are appreciated much today too. In his book she, talk about the life of the middle country class in England, is remarkable the naturalism of her histories, this is the reason that is remembered. Her woks have been made into movies many time, Example of this is "Pride and Prejudice" (of course), this is her masterpiece. Other works about Jane Austen are, "Sense and Sensibility", "Emma" and "Persuasion". I like much because, I think is interesting the 18th century, the social conventions and the characters that Austen describe are so convincing.

Other writer I love is Laura Gallego, she is Spain writer, some or her books are, "La emperatriz de los etéreos", "Memorias de Idhun", "Dos velas para el diablo", her book are specially about fantastic literature. Two candles for the devil is a short book, but is great. In the same topic, fantastic literature, I love too, Patrick Roothfuss (The Name of the wind), George R.R. Martin (Song of Ice and Fire saga) and obviously JK Rowling. I love Tolkien too, but I thinks his book some time are very (excessively) descriptive.  

Well that ir all for today, I like other writers and many other books but is time to say goodbye..

See you soon!!

Camilo Boito

Hi guys!

Today.. I m talking about Camilo Boito. He is an italian restorer, is know to be a father of scientific restoration. His postulates propose that the restoration is possible but at the same time is necessary keep visible the "life of object", because the "patina" or time of the object is finally his value. He understand that the arts have a important information for kwon the past, his value is documental too and not only esthetical.
For this reasons, his proposed a that the intervention in the object must be visible and distinguishable from the work, for this reason is necessary use different materials.
The restoration is based in  rigorous documentation and not in a speculation of stile.
Finally the intervention is minimum and privileging the Conservation.
 I think is important because before hi, the only two options for the historical object are the stylistical restoration by Viollet Le Duc, hi not saw the documental value and change many historical buildings with his restoration. The other possibility is John Ruskin, but hi weighed, that the life of object come to the end is better to let him die to intervene, because if you intervene the patina is lost and with her the information of the object.

Okey.. this is all..
See you soon
