New Yorkers can easily be over-worked, under-paid, poorly-rested, lonely, pest-infested, polluted, over-stimulated...

a reverie

yesterday Y. smiled and it felt like the whole universe was smiling to me!!

no cambiaría ayer por nada en el mundo

ya casi es 11/11/11 ---> pao! (mosco!)

ayer lloré de la emoción. hoy sigo! que sea una cascada

for moments time seems malleable

me da miedo aún compartir mis ideas. me siento (tan) vulnerable! Ay, no sé de dónde aprendí que ser vulnerable era malo. A desaprender!

there is a point of intersection for everything. choose to be that point. choose how to be it.

for one problem, infinite solutions

hand shakes are funny!

a question, how can you steal something that i am giving?

drink water and then offer something refreshing to a person

life is such a reverie!

unexpected charm,

i have a zipcode!

 

this is one of the best experiences of my life!!! 

WELCOME,

i think you are a powerful piece of art

thank you sweet a. siempre tan detallista!

Admiro tu nobleza y bondad.

a bunch of love,

some thoughts about my relationship with art...

the other day I was thinking about my passion/obsessivecompulsivedisorder with art. 

this is what i found out,

a visceral relationship

sometimes i am embarrassed on how much a voyeur i am 

(voyeur is such an elegant word!)

it empties my mind

i like when art is exhibited in unexpected places 

(also when it has some humor! but not arrogant humor but simple and true)


i like artists who transform their time not only mirror it

i enjoy small museums. 
(intimacy is better)
un pas de deux

museums should be opened 24 hours. (sometimes needed)

i could move into another country for art. i just did

I can't tell which was my first relationship to art. I think I have always been attracted to beauty. ...maybe nature and my family's love started everything 

communication for me is so hard! and for some reason I find myself completely communicated when I am in art. 

it is a state, a place where i go back, i return.


at the end of the experience I find myself in peace and thankful

strangely but no, i have not collected anything. oh yes! stickers but i lost them. 

a few months ago i tried to collect interviews from my favorite people but afterwards i forgot. 

i am looking to start my own collection... oh! but I am sure I would easily exchange it for something else. maybe memories. 

art comes from/is/goes to movement

the works of art that have moved me the most... so many and so few!

 i believe art is extremely powerful!

i prefer going by myself cause it is a very intimate experience. 
afterwards i share the event with my closest friends

you can find it anywhere. just picture a frame!

my favorites (the ones I frequently go back to): ambramovic, turrell, rothko, kapoor. 

but i enjoy finding new favorites all the time! 

(Also, there are some curators and people that are not considered "artists" that I adore!)

i love all art forms! 

from the art expressions, i "connect" (I feel so hippie saying "connect") most easily-least easily:

dance, theatre, contemporary visual arts, film, film, photography, opera, performance, architecture, writing, fashion, performance, sculpture. I prefer when they merge! :)

i am still in the journey of discovering what in art is so magnetic to me. (not necessarily in art)

A very beautiful journey though!

merci,

Sophie Calle's questionnaire and my dear friend MFdO

Thank you for sharing your beautiful answers my dear MFdO! :) happy to be close to you my so very special friend,

Love you,


When did you last die?
Last time I kissed someone I liked.

What gets you out of bed in the morning?
A sense that life is bursting outside my window.

What became of your childhood dreams?
I haven't given up on them, they haunt me, they're becoming reality.

What sets you apart from everyone else?
My passion.

What is missing from your life?
"that sullen inhabitant who, when it is stumbled upon, means the body can fool no-one, can fool nothing - not the wisdom of sleep or the habit of social graces" - Michael Ondaatje


Do you think that everyone can be an artist?
Not really. No.

Where do you come from?
1944

Do you find your lot an enviable one?
Indeed I do.


What have you given up?
People, but I always keep something for myself from each and everyone.

What do you do with your money?
I exchange it for things of beauty.

What household task gives you the most trouble?
Doing the dishes.

What are your favourite pleasures?
Dreaming imposibilities, making them happen. Reading great words of truth. Loving without measure.

What would you like to receive for your birthday?
The voices of my friends and family in one song.

Cite three living artists whom you detest.
Real artists are hard to come by, I don't detest the gifted.

What do you stick up for?
My word, to the end.

What are you capable of refusing?
Everything but myself.

What is the most fragile part of your body?
Corny as it may be... my heart.

What has love made you capable of doing?
Forget my own worth sometimes.

What do other people reproach you for?
Megalomania, selfishness.

What does art do for you?
Makes me stop and stare at the world.

Write your epitaph.
We die rich with lovers and tribes. Tastes we have swallowed, bodies we have entered and swam up like rivers. Fears we've hidden in.

In what form would you like to return?
A symphony.

november, nyc and a --> Combo!
