I’ve got around myself, on the table, a few exhibitions’ leaftlets I’ve visit from March. In fact there is nothing really related to the women topic except one of them. I’ve been at Miquel Miro, at Caixa Forum, the place was full of people so I didn’t see all the exhibition and left soon.

The same day, I went to La Casa Encendida, to see “Estudio franquicia” by Ryan Mcginness, visiting the studio he created in one of the rooms (but without him) and his works. It was interesting the presentation of the exhibition as it was on hte process to put everything on the place (such as paintings on the floor, or marks on the walls).
The last week I went to see on the 6th April, Isidro Blasco “Aquí huidizo” exhibitions. I quite like all, but the video he played at one little room, most of all. It was between autobiographic and oneiric, simple and maybe a bit poetic. But I suppose the most interesting thing of his work is just the other part, all the homes, spaces he represent as collages with pictures, and woods or papers, as a bit impossible situations (as M.C.Escher?) well, not exactly like that…
This Monday I went to see zombie shorts at “Casa Encendida” and it was a good surprise!!! Really funny, well done with different points of view about zombies topic. The thing I liked more were the uses of stereotypes of situations (as the sexuality talk with teenagers), or images of people we have through TV (series, documentals, etc.) i.e. american people, as cheerleaders, or a bussines man…
(Sorry, I’ve just copy from the web the programm)
