Opening of the Sixth Photo Pullin
chirmole Lots of gossip and these days, but even so, it's worth come to the facility. All this means that Historical Center, and its renewal, is in the public eye more than ever.
But before you go: Young, if you go by car, p ónganle locked the door and raise their glasses . Today I saw as I opened the door to his SUV to a young women and tried to take off. Fortunately for her, came running several students and offenders were frightened and ran. I think what saved her is that he began to give such screams drew the attention of everyone. Anyway, I had closed the door with a lock obviously something that is a sensible precaution today.
Anyway, back to gossip.

Yes, a lot of controversy these days and What are we here but to airearlas with all the good and bad ? So here's what keep ventilating conflicting fashion show Saul Mendez, Vintage Fashion Tour at La Sexta and their impact; show yourself in El Cerrito del Carmen, and the Opening of The Sixth , among other things.
And again, trying to see what good and bad, because criticism just to criticize, not worth it. By the way, if you missed the fantastic show Saul Mendez company that had no invitation, I put the video at the end.
The Portalito, Inauguration of the Sixth First Controversy.
begin at the Vintage Fashion Tour event of the company Saul Mendez held in The Sixth late last November. If you want to see good pictures of fashion in the same, visit the blog From Guatemala With Love . This talented young man has a good eye and seemed born to be a fashion photographer. I like your work. I was on a trip, so I missed all this.
Returning to the event. No one denies that the event was magnificent , or that larger companies are welcome to food, drink and fashion come to bet the historic center. I think it's great that incorporated, for example, people of different ages and Break Dance artists.
However, there were many actions that gave rise to negative public reactions. For example,
Children's Choir of the Municipality, Opening of the Sixth people could only enter by invitation . Since The Sixth is a public road that has developed within a framework of democracy and contributing to the community, for others it seems unacceptable to that philosophy.
is very different, for example, when doing a concert in the Plaza of the Constitution or a park, they do not close the road traffic and whoever can get their entry paid.
In this event, however, closed a pedestrian that advertises itself as a democratic event and public space and also could only enter by invitation people mostly tell me, were of media or in general, NO were neighbors of the center and people who frequent.
Jack's Place, Opening of the Sixth addition, there were rumors - I am not aware, but I understand that one of the ways has come to ask - that the company filed for Traders Trade Portal to close their companies before 6 pm to evacuate.
do not know how true this is, but if true it was in this way, it would seem from an arrogance so great that it seems inconceivable to any modern company that cares about its image in the community. And if not true, as the rumor shows the image the company is generating Saul Mendez in the large and varied downtown community.
La Sexta, Opening of the Sixth In conclusion, all companies that want to come to bet the center should be welcomed. The commercial development of the area depends on a good mix of shops and people. Much of his long-term success depends, as is, the way they handle public relations.
Sadly, some of the company's shares do not seem to be Saul Mendez made a good start, nor was his event enjoyed by a good variety of people from the community.
Despite good thing was, and is put Historical Center on the map for a large number of people who probably had never come to Historical Center. Also, put it in front of the media in a positive way. And this last factor, say what you say, was positive.

So much so negative publicity generated by the privatization of the street that day, however, had a talk last night at The Grand Hotel the Historic Center We ALL entitled to La Sexta ... . remodeling plans are Sixth Avenue and the historic center for all?? which was moderated by Kunty Shaw and with the participation of the sociologist and anthropologist Bernardo Euler Denisse Phe Funchal. It seems that this discussion group, born of a formal document.

productive thing about this is that these conversations are taking place in public space. These things must be discussed. Some comments on a YouTube discussion forum are the following (There are many other comments, but these are more or less illustrative of the different points of view. It is something that is discussed in bars cafes and streets of the historic center ):
these people have interesting $ e $ well padded and municipal use POT repartise cake pa ... There is nothing wrong with improving the ornament, on the contrary, is excellent, but behind it is a hidden agenda, if d prq kisieran really improve the Historic Center, which would make the neighbors including
Public space can be privatized, and q that does not mean a guy come to buy 80mts. d street, that means q restricted access, business opportunities or residential space
q I am aware the corrupt politicians have made the country, but a street cleaning and fix is \u200b\u200bnot bad, you can see the cultural heritage and art is now appreciated ...
I did not know if you can privatize a street, thanks for the clarification ... I hope not privatize the street porq aunq do not think if you go to the 6th now what you see is poor people ...

Controversy II.
had been approved, it seems, in the context of this event, the exhibition of the photographer Eny Roland, among others, and then were to be removed by someone at City Hall decided that the format was "a mockery of the City."
art is interpretative and as could be seen as a joke, could be seen as an ironic comment on society, could be seen as an underhanded compliment, or as a historical reconstruction in order Who determines these meanings? "And when have NO art should be to comment on social realities? I think it was worse for the City public relations that share, to be allowed free expression of ideas through art.

is important to bear in mind, however, that the municipal government has many departments, and not all necessarily have the same views and the same interests.
As anyone could authorize any other entity in the same institution may have come to take it apart. Misunderstandings occur. We forget that some departments of The Muni has done many positive things, so that's focus on the good and try to find solutions to what is not good.
With respect to this dispute can read the article written by Marcela Gereda of elPeriódico entitled Vintage City and the Privatization of Public Space , clicking here.

What has been good?
lot!
Of the things that I have attended, I liked the show yourself (course) and the launch of The Sixth definitely very good and well-organized. Something terrible happening today excellence in Historical Center is the art exhibition Guatemalan Hip Hop Ex-Centric in . The latter is the super recommend.
Very interesting is also the exhibition of contemporary art projects Colombian UV. Another very successful event was the exhibition "Art Vitrin and parts can be seen today in Bakabs (see events).
public exposure Vitrin-Art, a collective effort, we comment on the blog Shut It André and can be visited, as I said, new space Bakabs (5th Ave 10 - 53 Z. 1). We add, moreover, a video (below) on the exhibition.
I went to the opening of the Sixth and really enjoyed the shows. "Mind" Christmas tree if I am just "chama", but then, in taste genres are broken. Would make traditional events in the Historic Center, such as inns, fill pine, cantatas and other Guatemalan history, as Santa Clauses and fawn I think we're saturated Do not you think? Our traditions have much slippers to offer.

Third Controversy
Well, if that has caused controversy that show yourself no longer take place in El Cerrito del Carmen . The farewell show yourself on his blog can be read by clicking here . Among the commentators of the case are the Green Blog and Fellin.
Personally, I admire the great work of recovering the Teoxché Cerrito del Carmen, but I worry that this confict standing again for those who "own" the public space.
show yourself has a long - many! - Year bet on Historical Center and Guatemalan artists of all kinds. His festival in Cerrito del Carmen has become a cultural and historical landmark. Attracts people of all ages, tastes, and income levels. It's a great pity that the combination of this place and this festival is no longer going to give more.
show yourself Before the event, I share this story sent to me, because I think a very valuable project. Please donate all your old magazines to this cooperative.
