Blog

In my opinion I think that it was a very good exercise to write in english. When you can write many of these issues required to use much vocabulary. The first exercises were difficult for that forces you to think of a good wording in another language, We try to write as we could make it in spanish, but it is very different. I can now understand more things in english that I also write it. In Spanish when we read we can write better, in english it is similar, but I believe that writing also helps to read english. It is interesting to also read what you write your classmates, we studied art but we have different tastes regarding that. I had never used a blog before and it was pretty fun, have a space to write good many times. Maybe in the future create a blog to write about anything, I'd like to write about places I will visit for example. The world of the blog gives you many possibilities, this is new for my. Generally like people talk about good experiences, the blog allows you to capture that. This was a very good exercise to practice my English. 

British Museum

The best museums in the world are in Europe, London has the British Museum. The British Museum was established in 1753, is a museum dedicated to human history, art, and culture. Its permanent collection, numbering some 8 million works, an of the more of the world's largest. You can spend a day inside the Museum and maybe not see everything, It should be a great experience.

This museum was heavily criticized for having part of the treasure of Egypt, until today they have not reached an agreement. If someday travel to London I will visit this Museum by its history.This museum to changed for a long time but today is a modern museums.

The Dientes (Teeth) of Navarino

When I visited "Torres del paine" alone I met a crazy french guy. He told me about his travels and diferent places for visiting. The teeth of Navarino is a place in Navarino island, few people know about this island but know Port Wiiliams, Port William is just a city in this big island. Navarino is a not very popular trekking because it is difficult to arrive there, you can take a flight to Punta Arenas but you need to take a ship to Puerto williams, this trip is very expensive. Most people think Antartica is the last place in the world and that there is nothing. There are stories of people who lived months there, Navarino has lakes with salmon you can fish. Since the French man spoke to me, I can't stop thinking about this place, it is my closest dream.

The Web Gallery of Art

A website that I visit for my career is The Web Gallery of Art, is a virtual museum and searchable database of Western European fine arts of the Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, Neoclassicism, Romanticism, Realism, and Impressionism periods (1000-1900), currently containing over 38.000 reproductions.The Web Gallery of Art is intended to be a free resource of art history primarily for students and teachers. At the same time the collection serves the visitors' need for a site where various information on art, artists and history can be found together with corresponding pictorial illustrations.Their database with over 38,000 artworks created by over 4,000 artists is free to download. It is difficult to find good images of works by artists on the internet, most of the images have different colors.Web Gallery of Art  retains the original color of the works in a good quality to appreciate . I visit this website regularly especially when I need to do a work on an artist. The Web Gallery of Art is a great website.

The internet allows access to lot of film material, before you needed to pay to see the film that you want. The Internet is a world of options but is difficult to find what your looking for, but the people create specific sites for for many tastes.  My favorite site in the internet is teledocumentales.com because is a website that specializes in documentaries, You can search in different categories for example history, music, film and visual art.

When I was a child i liked to see photography  of my family. The expression of their faces depicts  other time that I didint live, to see the old photographys is enter in other time. In general the people pose for a photography because they like to look good in their pictures, the people look happy but not always is true. My favorite photographer is Walker Evans because he took a picture in search of the more intimete expresion. His photographs were taken in secret, he hide his camera of the persons. Evans was interested in remove the mask of the people. Subway Passanger represesent the continium travel  from the work to a house, the comun person is naked for Evans. Evans was born  in the state of Misouri in  november of 1903, He is witness of the social changes in the United stated, his work reflects the immigrant and working class among other things.

William Turner

Since I was a child I liked looking at books with paintings. That´s why I studied history and theory of arts. I like about my career that I can read and write interesting things. It is not an obligation for me. My favorite artist is William turner. He is an English painter associated with romanticism. His work is very interesting. I especially like his use of light, which gives his paintings an unusual touch compared to traditional romanticism. A lot of impressionistic artists studied his work and his way to capture the impressions of nature, He was born in London, April 23 to 1775 and died in Chelsea, London, 19 December 1851, It was considered a controversial figure in his time, but nowadays is seen as the artist who elevated landscape art.
