Aquí están mis afotillos.
A ver si quedamos esta semana para ver una expo y/o tomar unas cañas.
100% success. I am taking one full day off, then I will email and call so we can all get together before I go. I think this whole thing, the taller and the show, was beyond anything I could have expected.
Love,
ZS
100% de éxito. Estoy teniendo un día entero fuera, entonces me correo electrónico y llamadas para que todos podamos reunir antes de irme. Creo que todo este asunto, el taller y el espectáculo fue más allá de lo que podía haber esperado.
Amor,

Planning
I think that we can do 3 teams. 1 team to put the pictures on the streets walls, another one leading by Silvia to some stores and the other team with me to go to the rest of the stores, because we know which stores are and everything. We have supplies for every team.
We need the selection from Zoe,
About the solar Zoe has the information
Hola compañeros, como Silvia y yo sabemos las tiendas donde van las fotos sugiero que hagamos 3 equipos, uno que vaya con Silvia, otro conmigo y otro que vaya poniendo en las paredes. Para eso hemos comprado varias unidades de cada herramienta necesaria. Sabemos qué tiendas quieren una, cuales estaban todavía dudando si poner o no... etc.
Sobre cuándo se montará lo del solar Zoe tiene más información que yo.

Wicked!
Coco! The blog is so wicked! Nice :-)
I just remembered that Zoe said that maybe it would be nice to have a counter in the blog, to have an idea about how many people get to see it. During, after or during the event :-)
I believe that you can include it as a gadget (configuration/design).
I tried, but I believe I don't have rights to do it (only posts....that's why I am posting it!)

Participantes del Taller.
Veinte participantes, muchos de ellos vecinos de Lavapiés, hemos ayudado a Zoe, fotógrafa de Filadelfia, a mostrar su obra por primera vez en España. Al igual que el barrio, el taller ha sido un mosaico formado por personas de diferentes lugares y ámbitos, una diversidad que ha dado como resultado una explosiva mezcla de ideas.
Hemos servido de puente entre el barrio y Zoe, hemos salido a buscar los espacios más adecuados para exponer su obra, echándole una mano con su español y retratando tanto el barrio como su proceso creativo.
A cambio hemos aprendido de su obra, y de su generosa y entusiasta visión del mundo.

Las veinte miradas de Zoe Strauss
Durante las dos últimas semanas ha tenido lugar en La Casa Encendida el taller Hola. Cómo estás?, con el objetivo de comisariar la exposición de la fotógrafa estadounidense Zoe Strauss. El resultado puede verse en el barrio de Lavapiés a modo de gran museo abierto.
La accesibilidad del arte es uno de los principales temas en la obra de la fotógrafa, quien encuentra en este barrio madrileño un lugar muy cercano a los suburbios de Filadelfia donde suele crear y exponer. Lavapiés no es una casualidad, sino la elección lógica de un escenario en diálogo directo con las imágenes tomadas.
En este proceso, los participantes han retratado un Lavapiés tamizado por el objetivo conceptual de Strauss, erigiéndose el barrio en protagonista de las fotografías realizadas durante el taller.
Lavapiés, por tanto, como único escenario posible de la exposición y como centro de las veinte miradas de Zoe Strauss.
:::::::::::::::::::
During the past two weeks has taken place in the workshop Encendida House Hello. How are you?, With the aim of curating the exhibition of American photographer Zoe Strauss. The result can be seen in the neighborhood of Lavapies as a great museum open.
The accessibility of art is one of the main themes in the work of photographer, who finds in the Madrid district a place very close to the suburbs of Philadelphia where it tends to create and exhibit. Footbath is not an accident but the logical choice of a scenario in direct dialogue with the images taken.
In this process, participants have portrayed a Footbath sifted through the conceptual goal of Strauss, erecting a neighborhood star of the photographs taken during the workshop.
Footbath, therefore, the only scenario for exposure and center for all twenty eyes of Zoe Strauss.
Zoe Strauss Final Work-
Slideshows will be 10% Spain folded into the existing body of work.
Projections will happen at both the solar and La Casa Encendida.
Along the route, there will be the smaller images, with larger groupings at the Bibliotech at the Metro, the theater back doors, the ventanas on either side of calle Valencia before Calle Dr. Forquet and in the window of the store on Ronde Valencia.
Workshop Exhibition:
All photos have been approved, but they want you to put it on cardboard or a carton of some kind... someone will be there at six to explain.
Vinyl design with measurements has to get to Ignacio tonight.
i don't understand very good all the new comments. but if you need to print i'am in puerta del sol or send an email to rociomarvc@gmail.com with the pictures.

Test with the vinil / pruebas con el vinilo
Hello people, i couldn't do anything about the blog today because i was making the final for the vinil. I sent to you, but anyway i wanted to put some photos of the stuff we made yesterday so we can document the crazy process!. By the way I have to say sorry and thank you to Zoe because of the freedom she is giving to us, and the patience with our difficulties for deciding stuff. Sometimes I think we spend more time with our work than with hers. I think I am learning more about social groups than ever!.
Tomorrow i will spend some time with the blog.
Today i didn't come because i had another meeting, but i missed you a lot!
See you tomorrow!.
Coco.

Hola gente, yo no podía hacer nada con el blog hoy, porque yo estaba haciendo el final para el vinil. Que le envié, pero de todos modos quería poner algunas fotos de las cosas que hizo ayer, así que podemos documentar el proceso de locos!. Por cierto que tengo que decir que lo siento y gracias a Zoe, por la libertad que nos está dando, y la paciencia con las dificultades que tenemos para decidir cosas. A veces creo que pasamos más tiempo con nuestro trabajo que con el suyo. Creo que estoy aprendiendo más acerca de los grupos sociales que nunca!.
Mañana voy a pasar algún tiempo con el blog.
Hoy no he venido porque tenía otra reunión, pero os extrañé mucho!
¡Hasta mañana!.
Coco.
SCHEDULE PLANNING
You guys have to make your own prints for the show and I am giving 100 euros to do it. Today you have to decide the sizes, where they are going to get made, when they are going to get made, how they will be adhered to the wall, who will execute the installation of the photos, and find out the time frame of when the photos should be hung from Maria at La Casa Encendida.
Get your hustle on.
Chet backer documentary
Wednesday, September 16, 2009
If anybody wants to see the documentary about the great and missed Chet Baker I have it. So if you give me a dvd tomorrow I can burn copies
Final Decisions.
Hi everybody,
we finally selected about 40 pictures for the poster and divided them in three folder A3, A5 and A6. They are all on Zoe's HD. The pictures have different resolution and different sizes, before printing them we should probably assign them the same resolution and definitely resize them accordingly to the paper size.
Who is gonna do that? Zoe, will you do that such that they can be printed tomorrow morning/early afternoon and brought to the taller in order to decide the final layout? How can we do?
SCHEDULE PLANNING
Friday Night- Interior glass store window
Saturday Day- brown paper and 200 photos
error with pictures
i´ve tried to upload some pictures i tokk yesterday at class, but there is a constant error. i will bring them this afternoon.
see you!
Printings
hi!
I will be able to bring 1/2 of the printings (more or less) today. It is printing very slowly becouse of the size.
Zoe, can you have ready the other cd with the prints at the begining of the class? i can not stay longer today, I have to do some extra work.
ORGANIZATION and SCHEDULE PLANING
Buenos Dias, mi amigos! Right to work, right to work.
1. You guys have to make your own prints for the show and I am giving 100 euros to do it. Today you have to decide the sizes, where they are going to get made, when they are going to get made, how they will be adhered to the wall, who will execute the installation of the photos, and find out the time frame of when the photos should be hung from Maria at La Casa Encendida.
2. I am very happy with the adhesion test for the outside photos. I think the brown craft paper looked amazing. It's fully appropriate as a defining separation from the wheat pasted posters and allows enough of the background images to show through. And, thanks to Aitor and Sylvia, there's a number of stores to put the photos in! On Friday, we'll begin installation in the store windows and on Saturday do the exterior paste up.
3. Today we need to nail down what supplies are needed for Saturday, the sizes of the windows that will get the brown craft paper. I need to know the store where Julien got the supplies and we need to triple them. We also need a "enjugador de goma"

I am still waiting to hear about the budget and the solar and will let you know asap as soon as I do. From today, until Thursday night I am working on the slide show.
Pictures of the workshop
Hi everyone, here are some more pictures of the workshop. Tomorrow I won´t be able to make it, but feel free to select whatever, in case you need some more to selected from.
I need blank DVD
Tuesday, September 15, 2009
Todos III was closed and that's the only spot I know to buy recordable cds/dvds so IF ANYONE COULD PLEASE BRING 2 BLANK DVDS OR 4 CDS THAT WOULD BE GREAT! If not, could someone please ask at La Casa Encendida if they have a few we could have and if they don't someone has to go and buy them!
Muchas gracias!
Communication for exhibition
Hey guys, just thinking....
Should't we, as curators, have something in hand to communicate the exhibition online?
I was hoping to send some friends an email to share with them about what we've been doing and to invite them to come around on saturday night.
La Casa has produced these bright green postcards. It's cool but the information is not complete and it is not altogether.
Any ideas?

ORGANIZATION and SCHEDULE PLANING
Hola. Today we need to split the class in 2... they need the design for your exhibition vinyl immediately. Coco, can you pump out a PDF or Illustrator file today?
And Julien has the papering supplies so I need people to help in the street with testing and making sure that the photos will hold for the night.
Also, I need people to go to store and ask if it's possible to put photos in the windows just for the night... not on the windows, but inside the windows, and we can do that on Friday. I will need at least 2 people to do that today.
Be ready to go.
murphy's law

Guernica
2003:
from "UN conceals Picasso’s “Guernica” for Powell’s presentation" By David Walsh, February 8, 2003
"In an act with extraordinary historical resonance, United Nations officials covered up a tapestry reproduction of Pablo Picasso’s anti-war mural “Guernica” during US Secretary of State Colin Powell’s February 5 presentation of the American case for war against Iraq.
Picasso’s painting commemorates a small Basque village bombed by German forces in April 1937 during the Spanish Civil War. The painter, in desolate black, white and grey, depicts a nightmarish scene of men, women, children and animals under bombardment. The twisted, writhing forms include images of a screaming mother holding a dead child, a corpse with wide-open eyes and a gored horse. Art historian Herbert Read described the work as “a cry of outrage and horror amplified by a great genius.”
The reproduction has hung outside the Security Council chamber at UN headquarters in New York since its donation by the estate of Nelson A. Rockefeller in 1985. As the council gathered to hear Powell on Wednesday, workers placed a blue curtain and flags of the council’s member countries in front of the tapestry.
UN officials claimed that the cover-up was simply a matter of creating a more effective backdrop for the television cameras. “When we do have large crowds we put the flags up and the UN logo in front of the tapestry,” asserted Stephane Dujarric. New York Newsday, however, reported that “Diplomats at the United Nations, speaking on condition they not be named, have been quoted in recent days telling journalists that they believe the United States leaned on UN officials to cover the tapestry, rather than have it in the background while Powell or other US diplomats argued for war on Iraq."
