Exposição - Exhibition

Mon Jul 6, 2009, 2:35 PM
I'm making an exhibition in a week. It's called Natura Naturans (the name was inspired by the philosophy of Baruch Espinosa). The exhibition will be in a place called IQ Art Gallery | Chakras, in São Paulo, Brazil. If you happen to be in São Paulo, you are invited. There will be a vernissage on July 14th. You can see the invitation (in portuguese) here: [link]

I'll talk and post more about the exhibition soon.

Serra / Woods

Estou começando a escrever sobre minhas experiências aqui onde estou morando, na Serra.

Aqui está: [link]

I'm starting to write about my experiences here where I'm living, in the woods.
I've only made a version in portuguese so far, so if you can't speak portuguese you can still see the pictures and try to make something out of it if you want... maybe I'll do a version in english someday.

Here it is: [link]

Blue X Red Puppets

Tue Nov 4, 2008, 11:14 AM
It's amazing how manicheist and dichotomous the American society is.
I don't know if people actually gave thought to the fact that the only two political parties available are RED and BLUE, while the RED party is headed towards warfare and the BLUE one is sponsoring peace. The Blue guy is going to help Africa, stop the war, in other words: do everything the world is expecting of the USA, especially after so much war. The Red guy is way too old, endorses the war and has a vice that is the laughing stock of the moment.

So, do you want the puppet on the left, or the puppet on the right? The peace guy or the war guy?
They don't really give that many options, do they?

It seems to work in cycles, if you know what I mean. After a few years of "peace" with the Blue guy, the public opinion will be ready for some more Red action.

Just two sides of the same old coin... "Democracy"

Questionings

Tue Oct 14, 2008, 9:57 AM
I wanted to know what the people around here do for a living. Do you make money with your art?
One of the main reasons I became a painter was as my profession, I did make enough money in the last 5 years to live well and support myself, without much direct economic help from my parents. It wasn´t so hard because my father taught me a lot about painting and my mother helped me to sell because she already had a lot of experience selling my father´s work.
But my parents separated some years ago, the situation still didn´t settle, and they don´t help me much anymore. It turns out the family unit did have something to do with my stability and now it´s gone. I know what I have to do now, I have to develop my career on my own, but the thing is I don´t really like the art world, the galleries and market. So I´d have to sell myself to sell my work.
In fact, I´m running away from all of it, I don´t really want a career, to be a famous artist or anything like my father and my grandfather. I just want a simple life. I´m living outside the city now. I love nature, I´m growing a garden, and my real goal is sustainability. I wish I didn´t depend on money and the marketplace to live. I know it´s an utopic idea, but I am trying to pursue it giving small steps in that direction.
But I know I need money anyway, and I did put a lot of effort in my paintings. So the real question now is this: how can I sell my paintings and still maintain my lifestyle? or maybe: what else can I do to make money?
Just wanted to take all of this out of my head.
