Post 6 : Your favourite artist

The topic for today is our favorite artist, is very interesting, but is difficult for me because choose only one artist, because I like many artists some very different, different periods and styles.

One of the artists that I like is Marcel Duchamp, he was a french artist, he comes from a family where a lot of integrants chose to be artist.
Duchamp developed his work in the twenty century and was related with artistic movement like a cubism and dada, but is difficult to inscribe this artist in only style, because him work is very wide and different.

One of my favorite work, is a painting called Nude descending the staircase No.2, this painting is considered one of the most bold and smart to the twenty century. This appreciation is that Duchamp sought to represent the movement, but a sequenced movement that giving the impression to the temporal course of events, this is some that had not been seen before in painting, moreover this work had influence to the chronophotography.

The representation to the movement is sometime that Duchamp reiterates and mark their works  Today this painting is in the Philadelphia Museum, institution that has most of the work of Duchamp.

Post 5 : A Career-related Article

Well today I must choose an article published in some newspaper, I choose to a article about to Japanese photographer called Daido Moriyama, published in The Guardian and written by Sarah Phillips.
I liked this article because its principal topic is the photography, I always have been interested in this type of work. Moreover, the formation of this photographer was self-taught, this want to say that he learn alone to take photographs, for this reason he said: "Take as many photographs you can: it's the only way to train your eyes, body and emotions".
The photographs to Moriyama was taken in the street, in different cities that he visited,  for this reason him work have a natural stile. In the article the photographer show us that the most example about he work is "Stray dog".                                                        
Too have another type of work, in the article speak about the photographs taken to the legs of women using tights, and other images of the women's lips. Moriyama explain that this type of scenes have a erotically charged.
A example about the most erotic photograph is How to create a beautiful picture 6: Tighs in Shimotakaido, in this photo we can see a body, specifically a legs with tights, is a photo takes very near and present us a body that almost can touch, is for this, that Moriyama believe that this photo is erotic.
Finally,  the photography is very interesting for me, is for that I choose this article.

Post 3: Unforgettable holidays

I want have holidays soon! (summer holidays). I think that all the holidays are good because all wanted enjoy.
The past holidays, in february I travel to Argentina and Uruguay, I worked all the weekends in the year for pay this trip and think that this was a good decision.I went with my boyfriend and stayed far to home for a month approximately.
The reason why these holidays are good, is because knew new places, go to Buenos Aires and the beach in Uruguay, all are places very beautiful. Visit many places such as museum, parks, beach and much more.
I like to travel again there, but I hope in this holiday know the south of Chile or  travel to Bolivia and Perú, always I want know these places, so repeat the trip will be another time.
My holidays always been entertaining, before going to the beach with my family, my cousins and my grandparents, we played a lot and really enjoyed it.
In this photo I'm on a beach of Piriapolis in Uruguay.

Post 2: Social media

Hello everyone, today I write about social media. First, must say that I'm not a technological person, for this reason sometime is difficult use this website and I don't like me very much this type of things.
I have a facebook page, use this site for speak with friends and family, I don't have twitter or other pages. I think that all this websites are good idea, but I'm not convinced, because make that the people to go away more and more and speak through a computer or cellphone, this is a little boring for me.
I think that is recommend share no much information in the social media, because aren't safe places. All said that is very dangerous published direction, numbers and personal information, because all can see this. I published little information and share with some people and I don't like up photos or videos because think that is something private. Moreover, stay very time front the computer is not interesting.
Well, later read this post you can understand that the social media don't like me very much!

Bye bye!

Hello everyone!
In a long time I don't write in the blog, because I enjoy my holidays.
The time in this year was very quickly, I can't believe that it is the second semester. I liked very much this station to the year, the spring is very nice, the sun isn't very hot and the plants (trees and flowers) are very pretty.
Well, I think that my first semester was quiet, I don't have many things to do (speaking about responsibilities), only came to the university. I didn't have serious problems, this is god!
In the class I learnt new things about latinoamerican  and precolumbian art, this topics are interesting for me. In my free time I share time with my family, friends and boyfriend.  
I hope that this semester had a lot of god and entertaining things, I have any plans and things to do.
See you the next class!

Blog experience

This is my last post! Today I will write about my blog experience in the english class.
Write in a blog is something absolutely new for me, because never I had a blog. For this reason use this page sometime is complicated. But asking to my classmates I learned a little more about how I had to use this web page and learned that this is not very difficult.
For me, initially write in a blog was not pleasant because was difficult to improvise my english writing without use a dictionary or translator. I took a long time in publish my post. But later I understood that write in the blog is a form to improve my english. I don't now if this exercise gave some result, I hope to have some advance!
Even I have problems with the grammar and verb conjugation, maybe when checking my corrections can learn more about this.
I think this experience has been good, I learned to use a new website and tried improvise more my english.
This is the last time I write on the blog and I hope that my writtings has improved even a little.
I see you in the next english course, still remain a level!

A free topic!


 
I found an article with information about Buenos Aires in the BBC page, has some details about the city, its neighborhoods and its present economy.
I elected this article because Buenos Aires is a city that I really like, also I was there on holiday and I stayed for a month, approximately.
As mentioned in this article one of things that I like, is the architecture, because exist a lot of old buildings and walk closely of this departments was as like living in other time.
Buenos Aires is a city very pretty, large and pleasant.  There are many places to go, museums, restaurants, cinema, shops and square. These places are very nice and everyone, tourist and Argentinean people, enjoy them.
Something that I really liked were the fairs, are made by generally in the weekend and sold a lot of things like a books, antiques, cloth and food.  Too, many people play music and showed different shows.
I think that Buenos aires is a good place to know and too to live, I would like some day live in this city.
I hope this article be interesting for you.
