Como parte de su discurso del método, Fernando Sánchez Castillo cuestiona los conceptos de autoría y validez de la obra de arte en función de maestría técnica y otras valoraciones al uso. Por ello, las distintas piezas han sido realizadas según mecanismos más o menos "automáticos" o aleatorios, tales como robots -de los que se utilizan para desactivar artefactos explosivos- o acciones que dependen en mayor o menor medida del azar.

Handsome, dapper Argentine-born actor Lorenzo Lamas (1915-1982) came to Hollywood as a romantic lead in several colourful MGM extravaganzas and then succeeded in living up to his Latin Lover image in real life.
Lorenzo Lamas was born Fernando Álvaro Lamas y de Santos in 1915 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He studied drama at school in his native country and later enrolled in a law course at college. His strong leaning towards athletic pursuits prevailed, and he abandoned his studies to take up horse riding, winning trophies, fencing and boxing (middleweight amateur title) and becoming the South American Freestyle Swimming Champion of 1937. While still in his teens, he appeared on stage, then on radio, and by the age of 24, in his first motion picture. His 14 Argentine films included Navidad de los pobres / Christmas with the Poor (Manuel Romero, 1947), El tango vuelve a París / The Tango Returns to Paris (Manuel Romero, 1948), and La historia del tango / The Story of the Tango (Manuel Romero, 1949). For Republic, he appeared in a supporting role in the Swashbuckler The Avengers (John H. Auer, 1950) with John Carroll, shot on location in Argentina. Some scenes were filmed in the US, leading to Lamas going to Hollywood. In 1949, he was signed by MGM and went on to play 'Latin Lover' roles. He had a star part as Lana Turner's love interest in the Technicolour musical The Merry Widow (Curtis Bernhardt, 1952), a solid hit. He romanced Elizabeth Taylor in The Girl Who Had Everything (Richard Thorpe, 1952), which was also successful. He charmed Esther Williams in another A-grade production, Dangerous When Wet (Charles Walters, 1953). He also spent time 'on loan' to Paramount, who featured him in several Pine-Thomas B-movies, such as the 3-D Technicolour Sangaree (Edward Ludwig, 1953) and Jivaro / Lost Treasure of the Amazon (Edward Ludwig, 1954). His sole appearance on Broadway was in the 1957 play 'Happy Hunting'. There was considerable friction between him and co-star Ethel Merman, both on and off-stage. Lamas was nonetheless nominated for a Tony Award as Best Actor, but had the misfortune of coming up against Rex Harrison's Professor Higgins in My Fair Lady.
In real life, Fernando Lamas proudly lived up to his reputation as a ladies' man. His effortless charm and way with the ladies earned him the moniker 'First of the Red Hot Lamas'. With two ex-wives back in Argentina, actress Perla Mux and Lydia Barachi, he conducted well-publicised affairs with most of his female co-stars, including one with Lana Turner, which began while filming The Merry Widow. Actress Arlene Dahl, who appeared with him in Sangaree and The Diamond Queen (John Brahm, 1953), became his third wife from 1954 till 1960, and fellow swimming champion Esther Williams his fourth from 1969 till his death. In Europe, he appeared in such films as Duello nella sila / Duel of Fire (Umberto Lenzi, 1962) with Liana Orfei. Lamas himself directed the Spanish film La fuente mágica / Magic fountain (Fernando Lamas, 1963), with himself and Esther Williams playing the lead roles. He also helped to write the Eurowestern Die Hölle von Manitoba / A Place Called Glory (Sheldon Reynolds, 1965), starring Lex Barker and Pierre Brice. Lamas returned to Hollywood. From then on, he began to concentrate on television, alternating between acting in a recurring role as Playboy Ramon de Vega in Run for Your Life (1965) and directing episodes of shows like Mannix (1967), Alias Smith and Jones (1971), The Rookies (1972) and House Calls (1979). He directed another feature film, The Violent Ones (Fernando Lamas, 1967), with Aldo Ray and David Carradine. He was in Kill a Dragon (Michael D. Moore, 1967) with Jack Palance, and 100 Rifles (Tom Gries, 1969) with Jim Brown and Raquel Welch. His final film was The Cheap Detective (Robert Moore, 1978) with Peter Falk. Lorenzo Lamas died in 1982 in Los Angeles of pancreatic cancer. He was 67. He was the father of two daughters and of actor Lorenzo Lamas, best known for his roles in TV soaps like Falcon Crest (1981-1990) and The Bold and the Beautiful (2004-2006).

Alfredo Roces may have written an article about Amorsolo in 1975 entitled “Fernando Amorsolo: Recurring Themes and Subtle Changes”; yet the growth of scholarship on the master has been astounding. Genre avoided the exotic for the familiar, yet the passion for genre remains strong among all generations of Filipino connoisseurs and collectors in general. Amorsolo had developed his own rustic vision strong enough to hold its own, against even those Philippine art movements which tried to escape from it. It captures the steady, unhurried pace of rural life, removing the viewer from the fast, hectic pace lived outside of the countryside, reminding us of the beauty and simplicity of everyday actions and experiences. Amorsolo’s canvases are sparsely populated, but once everything had been arranged, Amorsolo would make a detailed drawing of every human figure in the pose the composition dictated.
Amorsolo’s works are not the result of any studio defined, culturally filtered notion of landscape as such, but reflects instead a very particular kind of visual vocabulary of forms — we see and feel the light of the midday sun; we perceive the cool, onrushing river, even the wetness of the clothes being washed. If the composition doesn’t have Amorsolo’s all encompassing skies, it shows great skill at showing light reflected from the rushing water. The river is a movement of rich shades of green and ochres. Everywhere life is expressed in light.
