About everything or nothing

Hello dear classmates!

Today I will talk about everything a little.

In our country is happening many things I think the situation is complicated. Maybe I am a negative person but I believe all is bad. Every day is worst. 

First, the seeds! Is terrible the problem with the seeds. A new law really affects us not only peasants and agricultures.   This law is prejudicial for all people in Chile because now only we can eat genetically modified seeds.  In my sincerely opinion, Monsanto sucks! 

Second topic is HidroAysen. This project was approved for almost twelve persons. 12 people approve a project that involves us all.  I disagree with HidroAysen. I think this project is fatalist for everything.  Destroy the Patagonia.  And the Government deceives people. They are told that energy is for everyone. They say “that prices will not rise”. But I think that's a lie. Always middle class and the poor pay. HidroAysen is negative. 

Third topic is... sexual diversity.  This topic is essential for me. I believe in freedom of expression and rights of each. And here including the freedom to show love♥ to anyone, women or men, the important is you are happy. 

The fourth theme is about Indegenous.  The indigenous of Chile has always been discriminated against. For many people is terrible and ugly to have blood Mapuche. That is stupid. I would be very happy if I had an Indigenous name. 
  

And the most important topic, for the moment, is about student demonstration. Maybe I do not participate actively but this not significant nothing. I care the education in Chile. I want the free and quality education.  I don’t have babies but I have a nephew and I want he can study in the best education.

And for the end, here some links for you can read the news.  Never had you read Emol or La Tercera because these newspapers never tell the complete news. You must read different newspapers to create an opinion.

Chile is not best country. But  I live here. I love my country, with bad or good things.  Only, we are fight for a best Chile in the future.

The Best!

Hello everyone!

The topic of this week is about of best in my field, the art history.

Topic very difficult for me because I believe that nobody is better than another. In my opinion all people are different and be important. It depends on the subjectivity of each person.

I like the art and I like many artists. Is not easy for me choose just one. But in this moment in my life I decided to talk about Dada or Dadaism. I chose the Dada movement because it is a criticism of the art institution. 

 

The Dadaism is a cultural movement. That emerged in 1916.  It begins in Switzerland. The movement involved many artistic expressions like literature, visual arts, art theory and poetry and other more.  The first person in talk about Dadaism is Hugo Ball (he writes the first Dadaist manifesto)

Dadaism was characterized as a movement presented as a critique of the institution-art. Is the movement of the anti-art.  This movement not accepts and oppose to the existing art forms and conventions. Dada does not accept the principles of art, logic,

The Dadaists are against the immobility. They were in favor of individual liberty, freedom of expression. The Dadaist t prefers the chaos and imperfection rather than the order and perfection of the art set. Dada is often asked what art is. Dada denies the aesthetic, reason, sense, the construction of consciousness.

The Dada worked the photomontage in magazines and posters. There are also paintings and assembly works.

The most famous Dada work is this “Fountain” by Marcel Duchamp. And He was the most important Dada artist (one classmate talk about Duchamp, see her blog)

The other work called "Fruit of a great experience" by Max Ernst, Dada is collage. It shows a diverse group of objects made ​​by artist arbitrarily.The work does not exist great technical or intervention of the artist. Also, the title, "The fruit of long experience," notes the irony that characterizes the Dadaism.

Hello dears classmates!

This week we not had classes because we are in strike. However, I comment two very important things. First is about of post by Beatriz, I believe that the law of the seeds is horrible. I cannot understand how the government can pass these laws that only affect us. I don't understand how now only we can eat genetically modified seeds. 

And second, I will talk about the words of Cardinal Jorge Medina. The Cardinal was interviewed the last Monday by Julio Cesar Rodriguez in his program “Podría ser peor”, on the Bío Bío radio.

Medina spoke about married homosexual, divorce, the case Karadima and abortion.

I heard this interview and I did not know whether to laugh or mourn.

 

Medina said: On people can have homosexual tendency but lives in moral. In his words the tendency is not sin. Live in couple o have relationship homosexual, yes it is. For him the homosexual married is unacceptable. Is the horror! The anarchy!. According to him people with homosexual tendencies should not have gay friends. In addition, people who have sex, the homosexual sex, don't go to heaven. The Bible says through the words of St. Paul. This is crap, this is very stupid!!

 The words of Cardinal Medina are absolutely homophobic. This Cardinal is downright caveman.  But we have to understand him because he is blinded by Catholicism, with its moral norms and dogmas. Although not as well, one need only look at Karadima. Medina is a grim human. The priests, religion in itself is bad for freedom of expression.

In my opinion, I don't understand people who decide to marry. But I think everybody should have the right to choose to get married. I think the opinion of the Medina is horrible. He speaks only nonsense. He cannot pretend to guide the lives of people. And also, He not know is good or bad.

You can hear the interview on the following link
