PUCHIS AH. And WHY ONLY THE SIXTH? The 5th TOO! Chirmole 
Balcony View Gallery 9.99 ( Elma Building Penthouse) Summary
that was today: among other things, opening Bakabs Vitrin-Art, concert band, book fair, a procession of Guadalupe, Feria de la Virgen de Guadalupe, a concert of choral music in La Candelaria , concert in La Maga Lucifer. Dear friends, I want to thank everyone who wrote me letters - some very long (I read them all) - about the previous post on
disputes La Sexta.
Unfortunately, I can not do anything to change anyone's policies, whether governments or private enterprise, or I can clarify viewpoints of each employer @ or authorities either. But
if you could accomplish more likely if their voices heard / read by the public. Therefore, I encourage you to encourage them to put their views in the comments space on this blog, rather than send them to me via my private.
Today however, there is no dispute on this blog, only new alegrísimas and so fun about the center and especially on a fantastic new space
on 5th Avenue and some not so new but well worth visiting and revisiting.
So keep reading! 
Sculpture José Toledo, "Sculptures Dangerous" on Jack's Place gallery I just found out, if you're interested, the Lux Cinema
will be the new home of the Symphony
The City. So for this new cultural life and historic building.
will also tell them that Christmas bazaars from Plaza Barrios and La Calle de Las Letras, to El Amate, safely and awnings to cover the public. The Muni informs us that:
Christmas bazaars in Plaza Barrios and 19 Street in Zone 1, will bring together about 800 vendors who temporarily occupied before the 6th. Avenue during the month of December, because this place can not be occupied by traders of the popular economy. This project will form a shopping promenade that connects the Plaza El Amate the Plaza Barrios, giving buyers the option of a range of products .
So besides The Sixth that traders are certainly very pretty fixing their windows, they have that other great space to go do their holiday shopping.
We support our dealers and shops to the popular economy of the Historic Center! 
Sculpture José Toledo, "Sculptures Dangerous" in the gallery of Jack's Place These days
if I had the opportunity to go to cafes and galleries. On Friday I went to see the exhibition of sculptures by the architect José Toledo
in
garlería of Jack's Place and are interesting. There are a lot of sculpture and I have heard several comments from people if they know of sculpture on that are wrong.
As I am simply ignorant of it, I liked me some things of them, particularly the ingenious way in which recycled parts and industrial machinery. I liked a lot, too, a series of engravings on metal frames.
Go see it when passing by! 
Tamal in the 100 Doors However, we did not stay to eat at Jack's Place
that much noise and you can not talk. Music too loud to talk and not enough to dance, in my opinion. Although the other night had a very good band, but that's another thing. Best
went to
The 100 Doors and had a great time, always good food, friendly, comfortable and informal, and this time asked the famous lentil soup but the tamale special Christmas was big and tasty. My only complaint of the 100
doors is the bathroom, but other than that, I have no complaints and always recommend it.
Songwriter Alejandro Bernardo Arriaza and photographer Euler Following the theme of modern art in the evening, we went to the opening of the new display
9.99 Gallery Building penthouse in Elma. As always, interesting people, interesting work and a spectacular view of the historic center to the outskirts of the city.
Indeed, there was
Alejandro Aguirre, whose highly praised
Antronauta CD is on sale in Casa de Cervantes
and Libraries
Sophos. They already have Christmas gift idea and be re bien! I, for example, this week I'll buy it for my next purrún. Great music. And of course, do not miss the concert
Unplugged Alejandro Aguirre this week (see the billboard).
Artwork Patrick Hamilton, 9.99 Gallery, Pencil drawing
gold 9.99
In Gallery are works by Benvenuto Chavajay
,
Patrick Hamilton (a very intriguing story behind his work!) and video
Sandra Monterroso. I honestly Monterroso's video did not get the picture. It would be good a explicacioncita as that given to the work of Hamilton, because as you know the story behind the works, a can appreciate the more.
Bakabs Space Entry (5th Ave 10-53 Z-1, with parking) What it is that all the trouble in the sixth when there are many things happening in other neighborhoods and avenues of the Historic Center. So them I have a big announcement
another area of \u200b\u200bthe zone.
There is a new space - relatively new - in the Historic Center
:
Bakabs Space. I went to meet for the opening of the exhibition of artists from
Vitrin-Art, and I loved the concept.
LOVED ME .
Exhibition Space Bakabs
The idea is pretty cool. It's a huge two-story space, which includes retail space craft modern art gallery space, café, sale and exhibition of furniture and designer clothes. And if they had not said, is parking itself at par.
Bakabs Space
I tell them that if I win the lottery I want to buy the painting by the artist Juan Thought
you see in the picture above to put behind my bed bedside manner.
I love all the symbolism. Dice
"Frankly, my dear, I do not care." not like but I only want it for every time my husband claim me for everything I do (which I admit is a lot do not do) I just pointed at the picture above the bed and I keep reading and eating chocolates ...
Luis Aguilar, manager of Space Bakabs The driving motor
Bakabs addition to the artisans and artists, is
Luis Aguilar . Aguilar is a very persistent entrepreneur who has been quite some time to gamble and put him forward to
Historical Center. Their pitch is the development and support of community artisans and artists, so I recommend that if you are early, to communicate with him to discuss his ideas, and if not, visit the room to meet him.
Bakabs Space Café can buy coffee, snacks and wine in your wonderful coffee, so enjoy it surrounded by interesting art and craft, in a very bright and pleasant space. For sample, see the photos below ... notice how every corner
has a special creative detail.
Bakabs Space Café Luis Aguilar tells me they will additionally provide a stage for dance and theater soon and that on the second floor will offer workshops organizational business and also is to rent for events which also provide coffee breaks and lunch.
I would suggest to add books and music for sale too. Talves already going to get.
Bakabs Space
In the photo above you can appreciate the area of \u200b\u200bselling craft items, which are modern versions of traditional crafts. They are beautiful but yet so if you see anything unusual. It's a nice place to buy a necklace or scarf.
Exhibition space Bakabs
The photo above is a detail of one of the exhibits that were in
Vitrin-Art of
The Sixth and are now in Bakabs. And I think this is a perfect place for them, large and modern. I am told that for many years were different banks that were there, then a pool and then was empty for years. Hopefully, the building finally found the kind of life that fits you best: Art and Culture.
Exhbición, Space Bakabs The photo above shows an ingenious way to transform swatter and other equipment plastic humorous artwork. There is also a picture of a facility that includes a plastic muñecón about pigs, but that it was not very good. The facility is nice, I suggest you spend watching.
sale of clothing, Bakabs clothing is on sale I liked, but still being installed and I could not see prices. As I explained, the designer makes the clothes herself and painted by hand, so each piece is unique. The concept comes to me.
Bakabs Clothing Sale Obviously, as you can see above, was not only to me the only one who liked the clothes. I'll have to spend another day without the mariachi slowly and not go to control as much as I spend my blouse in a hand painted ...
Furniture Exhibition, Space Bakabs These above are the next pieces that I buy when I win the lottery (
and grouper, grouper and ). The painting is done on canvas and as you can see, is the chair down, also painted by hand. That's where I sit to read, wearing my shirt hand-painted to blend.
Area
Bakabs
not all the names of the artists exhibiting in
Bakabs right now, but include Eny Roland, André Gribble
,
Juan Thought and many other young Guatemalan contemporary authors . I recommend you go see his work not only to support and admire all that is being designed and produced in Guatemala, but because they are a great source of inspiration and ideas.
There are many more works and things to do - furniture, clothing, photography, accessories - are worth, than I can list here. Go! Like I said,
there own parking and entrance is free

After, we walked a little further
Restaurante Altuna, a English restaurant in an old mansion that has been decades in the same place. Do you know what I mean?
As always full of people of all ages, especially those who want to see the English team's match of the day. There we find a professional world known also as usual. And as always, either way, but what else is there that ask for a beer and paella?
Altuna Paella case you do not know, paella there Q.60
costs as the dish, which I find very cheap and a thousand times better than to eat at McDonalds. In my still amazes me how expensive it is fast food here. So without even going through the sixth day, nor the chumules of people at Central Plaza, yet we spent a most pleasant Sunday in
Historical Center and Bypassing The 5th Avenue.
Elder dancing with the marimba That sheath is closed on Sundays two Lion Café
and Cervantes House, because if we just want a coffee and go to mater in one afternoon talking. But no way!
Upon returning home we saw the crowds at the feast of the Virgin of Guadalupe
, as did the 8th Street pedestrian for that celebration. Too much sun and too many people for my taste so if I was 5 mins long, but I'm going to comapartirles contagious joy and awesome old man who was dancing to the marimba with an energy that already the envy many Patojos.
And now if, let to the events of the week. I warn you APRAT processions, inns and choral concerts everywhere, there are many organized by the holiday season, and it is alegrísimo come as walking, eating, shopping and all
