Every year I lead an intensive workshop in Spain for beginning and intermediate wildlife photographers:
Wildlife Photography Boot Camp
Our location is the largest zoological park in the world, and with over 100 different species from the five continents, this is the perfect place to learn all the basics of wildlife photography.
This was shot on a late afternoon when it suddenly started to rain heavily. Instead of staying inside, I encouraged my group to go out and use the rain as an interesting bonus. This Watusi family preferred to stay dry though.
If you're a beginner or intermediate photographer and would like to learn more about wildlife photography and composition, and have a great time with a small group of like-minded enthusiasts, then join us on our next Wildlife Photography Boot Camp in Spain. Please have a look on my website for more information, pictures and tour impression video clips:
Squiver Photo Tours & Workshops
Hope to see you there!

האל אינו עובד כעת בגוף רוחני
אלא בגוף התגלמותו השנייה
הוא בשר רגיל, נראה כמו האחרים
אך הוא יכול להעניק אמיתות שלא שמעת מעולם.
הבשר הפשוט מכיל את כל דברי האמת של האל
בשר זה לוקח על עצמו את עבודת האל באחרית הימים
הוא גם מביע את טבעו של האל
בכללותו כדי שהאדם יכירו
הלא חשקת לראות את אלוהים בשמיים?
כדי להבינו ולראות את ייעוד האדם?
הוא יאמר לך סודות שאף אדם לא יוכל לומר
הוא יסביר לך אמיתות שאינך יכול להבין
הוא שערך אל המלכות
הוא המדריך שלך לעידן החדש.
II
בשר רגיל כזה מכיל תעלומות ללא גבולות
מעשיו נראים מסתוריים, אך מטרת עבודתו מראה כי
הוא אינו סתם בשר כמו שהאדם מאמין
שכן הוא מפגין את רצון האל, את דאגת האל לאדם באחרית הימים
הלא חשקת לראות את אלוהים בשמיים?
כדי להבינו ולראות את ייעוד האדם?
הוא יאמר לך סודות שאף אדם לא יוכל לומר
הוא יסביר לך אמיתות שאינך יכול להבין
הוא שערך אל המלכות
הוא המדריך שלך לעידן החדש.
אינך יכול לשמוע את דבריו מזעזעים שמיים וארץ
או לראות את עיניו כלהבות, להרגיש את מטה הברזל שלו
אך אתה יכול לשמוע את זעם האל בדבריו
ולדעת שאלוהים מגלה חמלה לאנושות
תראה את טבעו הצודק, חוכמתו
ותבין את דאגת האל, דאגתו לאנושות כולה
III
הלא חשקת לראות את אלוהים בשמיים?

הוא המדריך שלך לעידן החדש.

C'est l'arrivée un peu au-dessus de la retenue de l'Etale, du téléski du Grand Laquais en premier plan (Le téléski du Laquais a été démonté). Le départ de cette installation est situé aux Prises au bord de la route du col de la croix Fry.
A l'arrière plan, on voit le télémix de l'Etale qui prend son départ au Billon - route de l'Etale, mais aussi en contrebas du Transval

Shadow Hunter
There are methodical photographers who dedicate hours to every photo controlling every little detail of light and composition. On the opposite side there are those who armed with their cameras are hungry for images like a hunter looking for his prey. They don’t know where nor when they’ll find this image. They’re not familiar with the place, the light or “the model”. But at any given time they’ll stumble upon it and shoot without thinking twice, feeling the rush of the hunter becoming the hunted.
Billy Gómez belongs to this lineage of camouflaged, instinctive, risk-taking, quick draw and crack shot photographers. He has become a creative and active witness of the streets of Seoul. Its inhabitants are the driving force behind his work with their hectic routines, their depression and loneliness etched on their faces. The metro, train and the streets are his usual scenes. As in this image, the people he photographs are alone, lost in thought and with an expression of defeat almost as if they were prisoners to a life they hadn’t dreamt of. They look through the windows with their imagination trying to escape but all they find are others like them who are just as lonely and lost.
Billy is aware of the fact that with his camera he is going to steal sad and intimate moments in public places with no previous permission and this has its risks. However this also turns the moment of capture into something exciting, disturbing and unpredictable. With his sensitive and lyrical voyeurism he turns everything he sees into art.
He develops his photographs in a way to increase the loneliness of the lives of the human beings he portrays. By adding a vignette to every one of his subjects and darkening the borders it seems like they are surrounded by shadows. With his camera he immortalizes these sad inhabitants and it can be said that his voyeurism of anonymous men and women is taxidermal.
Billy Gómez (Los Angeles, 1971)
Born in America he moved to Seoul in 2005 to teach English. His job leaves him with a lot of free time and soon he decides to make the most of it by taking photographs. After a few years of fooling around, experimenting and searching he starts to define his style - a combination of voyeurism and spontaneous portrait. The result is a lucid and sad x-ray of a city, Seoul and its inhabitants.
With a telephoto lens, a 50mm and lately an iPhone that allows him to go unnoticed, he hits the streets in search of the right light and perfect moment. Not being able to control light as one would in a studio makes post-production more laborious. The search for the right light is now one of this visual poet’s priorities in the streets of Seoul. A hunter of light and above all shadows.

Biennalist :
Biennalist is an Art Format commenting on active biennials and managed cultural events through artworks.Biennalist takes the thematics of the biennales and similar events like festivals and conferences seriously, questioning the established structures of the staged art events in order to contribute to the debate, which they wish to generate.

—--Biennale from wikipedia —--
The Venice International Film Festival is part of the Venice Biennale. The famous Golden Lion is awarded to the best film screening at the competition.
Biennale (Italian: [bi.enˈnaːle]), Italian for "biennial" or "every other year", is any event that happens every two years. It is most commonly used within the art world to describe large-scale international contemporary art exhibitions. As such the term was popularised by Venice Biennale, which was first held in 1895. Since the 1990s, the terms "biennale" and "biennial" have been interchangeably used in a more generic way - to signify a large-scale international survey show of contemporary art that recurs at regular intervals but not necessarily biannual (such as triennials, Documenta, Skulptur Projekte Münster).[1] The phrase has also been used for other artistic events, such as the "Biennale de Paris", "Kochi-Muziris Biennale", Berlinale (for the Berlin International Film Festival) and Viennale (for Vienna's international film festival).
Characteristics[edit]
According to author Federica Martini, what is at stake in contemporary biennales is the diplomatic/international relations potential as well as urban regeneration plans. Besides being mainly focused on the present (the “here and now” where the cultural event takes place and their effect of "spectacularisation of the everyday"), because of their site-specificity cultural events may refer back to,[who?] produce or frame the history of the site and communities' collective memory.[2]
The Great Exhibition in The Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, London, in 1851, the first attempt to condense the representation of the world within a unitary exhibition space.
A strong and influent symbol of biennales and of large-scale international exhibitions in general is the Crystal Palace, the gigantic and futuristic London architecture that hosted the Great Exhibition in 1851. According to philosopher Peter Sloterdijk,[3][page needed] the Crystal Palace is the first attempt to condense the representation of the world in a unitary exhibition space, where the main exhibit is society itself in an a-historical, spectacular condition. The Crystal Palace main motives were the affirmation of British economic and national leadership and the creation of moments of spectacle. In this respect, 19th century World fairs provided a visual crystallization of colonial culture and were, at the same time, forerunners of contemporary theme parks.
The Venice Biennale as an archetype[edit]
The structure of the Venice Biennale in 2005 with an international exhibition and the national pavilions.
The Venice Biennale, a periodical large-scale cultural event founded in 1895, served as an archetype of the biennales. Meant to become a World Fair focused on contemporary art, the Venice Biennale used as a pretext the wedding anniversary of the Italian king and followed up to several national exhibitions organised after Italy unification in 1861. The Biennale immediately put forth issues of city marketing, cultural tourism and urban regeneration, as it was meant to reposition Venice on the international cultural map after the crisis due to the end of the Grand Tour model and the weakening of the Venetian school of painting. Furthermore, the Gardens where the Biennale takes place were an abandoned city area that needed to be re-functionalised. In cultural terms, the Biennale was meant to provide on a biennial basis a platform for discussing contemporary art practices that were not represented in fine arts museums at the time. The early Biennale model already included some key points that are still constitutive of large-scale international art exhibitions today: a mix of city marketing, internationalism, gentrification issues and destination culture, and the spectacular, large scale of the event.
Biennials after the 1990s[edit]
The situation of biennials has changed in the contemporary context: while at its origin in 1895 Venice was a unique cultural event, but since the 1990s hundreds of biennials have been organized across the globe. Given the ephemeral and irregular nature of some biennials, there is little consensus on the exact number of biennials in existence at any given time.[citation needed] Furthermore, while Venice was a unique agent in the presentation of contemporary art, since the 1960s several museums devoted to contemporary art are exhibiting the contemporary scene on a regular basis. Another point of difference concerns 19th century internationalism in the arts, that was brought into question by post-colonial debates and criticism of the contemporary art “ethnic marketing”, and also challenged the Venetian and World Fair’s national representation system. As a consequence of this, Eurocentric tendency to implode the whole word in an exhibition space, which characterises both the Crystal Palace and the Venice Biennale, is affected by the expansion of the artistic geographical map to scenes traditionally considered as marginal. The birth of the Havana Biennial in 1984 is widely considered an important counterpoint to the Venetian model for its prioritization of artists working in the Global South and curatorial rejection of the national pavilion model.

The Venice Biennale (/ˌbiːɛˈnɑːleɪ, -li/; Italian: La Biennale di Venezia) is an international cultural exhibition hosted annually in Venice, Italy by the Biennale Foundation.[2][3][4] The biennale has been organised every year since 1895, which makes it the oldest of its kind. The main exhibition held in Castello, in the halls of the Arsenale and Biennale Gardens, alternates between art and architecture (hence the name biennale; biennial).[5][6][7] The other events hosted by the Foundation—spanning theatre, music, and dance—are held annually in various parts of Venice, whereas the Venice Film Festival takes place at the Lido.[8]

History
1895–1947
On April 19, 1893, the Venetian City Council passed a resolution to set up an biennial exhibition of Italian Art ("Esposizione biennale artistica nazionale") to celebrate the silver anniversary of King Umberto I and Margherita of Savoy.[11]
A year later, the council decreed "to adopt a 'by invitation' system; to reserve a section of the Exhibition for foreign artists too; to admit works by uninvited Italian artists, as selected by a jury."[12]
The first Biennale, "I Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte della Città di Venezia (1st International Art Exhibition of the City of Venice)" (although originally scheduled for April 22, 1894) was opened on April 30, 1895, by the Italian King and Queen, Umberto I and Margherita di Savoia. The first exhibition was seen by 224,000 visitors.
The event became increasingly international in the first decades of the 20th century: from 1907 on, several countries installed national pavilions at the exhibition, with the first being from Belgium. In 1910 the first internationally well-known artists were displayed: a room dedicated to Gustav Klimt, a one-man show for Renoir, a retrospective of Courbet. A work by Picasso "Family of Saltimbanques" was removed from the Spanish salon in the central Palazzo because it was feared that its novelty might shock the public. By 1914 seven pavilions had been established: Belgium (1907), Hungary (1909), Germany (1909), Great Britain (1909), France (1912), and Russia (1914).
During World War I, the 1916 and 1918 events were cancelled.[13] In 1920 the post of mayor of Venice and president of the Biennale was split. The new secretary general, Vittorio Pica brought about the first presence of avant-garde art, notably Impressionists and Post-Impressionists.
1922 saw an exhibition of sculpture by African artists. Between the two World Wars, many important modern artists had their work exhibited there. In 1928 the Istituto Storico d'Arte Contemporanea (Historical Institute of Contemporary Art) opened, which was the first nucleus of archival collections of the Biennale. In 1930 its name was changed into Historical Archive of Contemporary Art.
In 1930, the Biennale was transformed into an Ente Autonomo (Autonomous Board) by Royal Decree with law no. 33 of 13-1-1930. Subsequently, the control of the Biennale passed from the Venice city council to the national Fascist government under Benito Mussolini. This brought on a restructuring, an associated financial boost, as well as a new president, Count Giuseppe Volpi di Misurata. Three entirely new events were established, including the Biennale Musica in 1930, also referred to as International Festival of Contemporary Music; the Venice Film Festival in 1932, which they claim as the first film festival in history,[14] also referred to as Venice International Film Festival; and the Biennale Theatro in 1934, also referred to as International Theatre Festival.
In 1933 the Biennale organized an exhibition of Italian art abroad. From 1938, Grand Prizes were awarded in the art exhibition section.
During World War II, the activities of the Biennale were interrupted: 1942 saw the last edition of the events. The Film Festival restarted in 1946, the Music and Theatre festivals were resumed in 1947, and the Art Exhibition in 1948.[15]
1948–1973[edit]
The Art Biennale was resumed in 1948 with a major exhibition of a recapitulatory nature. The Secretary General, art historian Rodolfo Pallucchini, started with the Impressionists and many protagonists of contemporary art including Chagall, Klee, Braque, Delvaux, Ensor, and Magritte, as well as a retrospective of Picasso's work. Peggy Guggenheim was invited to exhibit her collection, later to be permanently housed at Ca' Venier dei Leoni.
1949 saw the beginning of renewed attention to avant-garde movements in European—and later worldwide—movements in contemporary art. Abstract expressionism was introduced in the 1950s, and the Biennale is credited with importing Pop Art into the canon of art history by awarding the top prize to Robert Rauschenberg in 1964.[16] From 1948 to 1972, Italian architect Carlo Scarpa did a series of remarkable interventions in the Biennale's exhibition spaces.
In 1954 the island San Giorgio Maggiore provided the venue for the first Japanese Noh theatre shows in Europe. 1956 saw the selection of films following an artistic selection and no longer based upon the designation of the participating country. The 1957 Golden Lion went to Satyajit Ray's Aparajito which introduced Indian cinema to the West.
1962 included Arte Informale at the Art Exhibition with Jean Fautrier, Hans Hartung, Emilio Vedova, and Pietro Consagra. The 1964 Art Exhibition introduced continental Europe to Pop Art (The Independent Group had been founded in Britain in 1952). The American Robert Rauschenberg was the first American artist to win the Gran Premio, and the youngest to date.
The student protests of 1968 also marked a crisis for the Biennale. Student protests hindered the opening of the Biennale. A resulting period of institutional changes opened and ending with a new Statute in 1973. In 1969, following the protests, the Grand Prizes were abandoned. These resumed in 1980 for the Mostra del Cinema and in 1986 for the Art Exhibition.[17]
In 1972, for the first time, a theme was adopted by the Biennale, called "Opera o comportamento" ("Work or Behaviour").
Starting from 1973 the Music Festival was no longer held annually. During the year in which the Mostra del Cinema was not held, there was a series of "Giornate del cinema italiano" (Days of Italian Cinema) promoted by sectorial bodies in campo Santa Margherita, in Venice.[18]
1974–1998[edit]
1974 saw the start of the four-year presidency of Carlo Ripa di Meana. The International Art Exhibition was not held (until it was resumed in 1976). Theatre and cinema events were held in October 1974 and 1975 under the title Libertà per il Cile (Freedom for Chile)—a major cultural protest against the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.
On 15 November 1977, the so-called Dissident Biennale (in reference to the dissident movement in the USSR) opened. Because of the ensuing controversies within the Italian left wing parties, president Ripa di Meana resigned at the end of the year.[19]
In 1979 the new presidency of Giuseppe Galasso (1979-1982) began. The principle was laid down whereby each of the artistic sectors was to have a permanent director to organise its activity.
In 1980, the Architecture section of the Biennale was set up. The director, Paolo Portoghesi, opened the Corderie dell'Arsenale to the public for the first time. At the Mostra del Cinema, the awards were brought back into being (between 1969 and 1979, the editions were non-competitive). In 1980, Achille Bonito Oliva and Harald Szeemann introduced "Aperto", a section of the exhibition designed to explore emerging art. Italian art historian Giovanni Carandente directed the 1988 and 1990 editions. A three-year gap was left afterwards to make sure that the 1995 edition would coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Biennale.[13]
The 1993 edition was directed by Achille Bonito Oliva. In 1995, Jean Clair was appointed to be the Biennale's first non-Italian director of visual arts[20] while Germano Celant served as director in 1997.
For the Centenary in 1995, the Biennale promoted events in every sector of its activity: the 34th Festival del Teatro, the 46th art exhibition, the 46th Festival di Musica, the 52nd Mostra del Cinema.[21]
1999–present[edit]
In 1999 and 2001, Harald Szeemann directed two editions in a row (48th & 49th) bringing in a larger representation of artists from Asia and Eastern Europe and more young artists than usual and expanded the show into several newly restored spaces of the Arsenale.
In 1999 a new sector was created for live shows: DMT (Dance Music Theatre).
The 50th edition, 2003, directed by Francesco Bonami, had a record number of seven co-curators involved, including Hans Ulrich Obrist, Catherine David, Igor Zabel, Hou Hanru and Massimiliano Gioni.
The 51st edition of the Biennale opened in June 2005, curated, for the first time by two women, Maria de Corral and Rosa Martinez. De Corral organized "The Experience of Art" which included 41 artists, from past masters to younger figures. Rosa Martinez took over the Arsenale with "Always a Little Further." Drawing on "the myth of the romantic traveler" her exhibition involved 49 artists, ranging from the elegant to the profane.
In 2007, Robert Storr became the first director from the United States to curate the Biennale (the 52nd), with a show entitled Think with the Senses – Feel with the Mind. Art in the Present Tense.
Swedish curator Daniel Birnbaum was artistic director of the 2009 edition entitled "Fare Mondi // Making Worlds".
The 2011 edition was curated by Swiss curator Bice Curiger entitled "ILLUMInazioni – ILLUMInations".
The Biennale in 2013 was curated by the Italian Massimiliano Gioni. His title and theme, Il Palazzo Enciclopedico / The Encyclopedic Palace, was adopted from an architectural model by the self-taught Italian-American artist Marino Auriti. Auriti's work, The Encyclopedic Palace of the World was lent by the American Folk Art Museum and exhibited in the first room of the Arsenale for the duration of the biennale. For Gioni, Auriti's work, "meant to house all worldly knowledge, bringing together the greatest discoveries of the human race, from the wheel to the satellite," provided an analogous figure for the "biennale model itself...based on the impossible desire to concentrate the infinite worlds of contemporary art in a single place: a task that now seems as dizzyingly absurd as Auriti's dream."[22]
Curator Okwui Enwezor was responsible for the 2015 edition.[23] He was the first African-born curator of the biennial. As a catalyst for imagining different ways of imagining multiple desires and futures Enwezor commissioned special projects and programs throughout the Biennale in the Giardini. This included a Creative Time Summit, e-flux journal's SUPERCOMMUNITY, Gulf Labor Coalition, The Invisible Borders Trans-African Project and Abounaddara.[24][25]
The 2017 Biennale, titled Viva Arte Viva, was directed by French curator Christine Macel who called it an "exhibition inspired by humanism".[26] German artist Franz Erhard Walter won the Golden Lion for best artist, while Carolee Schneemann was awarded a posthumous Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement.[27]
The 2019 Biennale, titled May You Live In Interesting Times, was directed by American-born curator Ralph Rugoff.[28]
The 2022 edition was curated by Italian curator Cecilia Alemani entitled "The Milk of Dreams" after a book by British-born Mexican surrealist painter Leonora Carrington.[29]
The Biennale has an attendance today of over 500,000 visitors.[30][31][32]
Role in the art market[edit]
When the Venice Biennale was founded in 1895, one of its main goals was to establish a new market for contemporary art. Between 1942 and 1968 a sales office assisted artists in finding clients and selling their work,[33] a service for which it charged 10% commission. Sales remained an intrinsic part of the biennale until 1968, when a sales ban was enacted. An important practical reason why the focus on non-commodities has failed to decouple Venice from the market is that the biennale itself lacks the funds to produce, ship and install these large-scale works. Therefore, the financial involvement of dealers is widely regarded as indispensable;[16] as they regularly front the funding for production of ambitious projects.[34] Furthermore, every other year the Venice Biennale coincides with nearby Art Basel, the world's prime commercial fair for modern and contemporary art. Numerous galleries with artists on show in Venice usually bring work by the same artists to Basel.[35]
Central Pavilion and Arsenale[edit]
The formal Biennale is based at a park, the Giardini. The Giardini includes a large exhibition hall that houses a themed exhibition curated by the Biennale's director.
Initiated in 1980, the Aperto began as a fringe event for younger artists and artists of a national origin not represented by the permanent national pavilions. This is usually staged in the Arsenale and has become part of the formal biennale programme. In 1995 there was no Aperto so a number of participating countries hired venues to show exhibitions of emerging artists. From 1999, both the international exhibition and the Aperto were held as one exhibition, held both at the Central Pavilion and the Arsenale. Also in 1999, a $1 million renovation transformed the Arsenale area into a cluster of renovated shipyards, sheds and warehouses, more than doubling the Arsenale's exhibition space of previous years.[36]
A special edition of the 54th Biennale was held at Padiglione Italia of Torino Esposizioni – Sala Nervi (December 2011 – February 2012) for the 150th Anniversary of Italian Unification. The event was directed by Vittorio Sgarbi.[37]
National pavilions[edit]
Main article: National pavilions at the Venice Biennale
The Giardini houses 30 permanent national pavilions.[13] Alongside the Central Pavilion, built in 1894 and later restructured and extended several times, the Giardini are occupied by a further 29 pavilions built at different periods by the various countries participating in the Biennale. The first nation to build a pavilion was Belgium in 1907, followed by Germany, Britain and Hungary in 1909.[13] The pavilions are the property of the individual countries and are managed by their ministries of culture.[38]
Countries not owning a pavilion in the Giardini are exhibited in other venues across Venice. The number of countries represented is still growing. In 2005, China was showing for the first time, followed by the African Pavilion and Mexico (2007), the United Arab Emirates (2009), and India (2011).[39]
The assignment of the permanent pavilions was largely dictated by the international politics of the 1930s and the Cold War. There is no single format to how each country manages their pavilion, established and emerging countries represented at the biennial maintain and fund their pavilions in different ways.[38] While pavilions are usually government-funded, private money plays an increasingly large role; in 2015, the pavilions of Iraq, Ukraine and Syria were completely privately funded.[40] The pavilion for Great Britain is always managed by the British Council[41] while the United States assigns the responsibility to a public gallery chosen by the Department of State which, since 1985, has been the Peggy Guggenheim Collection.[42] The countries at the Arsenale that request a temporary exhibition space pay a hire fee per square meter.[38]
In 2011, the countries were Albania, Andorra, Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bangladesh, Belarus, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, China, Congo, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cuba, Cyprus, Czechia and Slovakia, Denmark, Egypt, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Haiti, Hungary, Iceland, India, Iran, Iraq, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Mexico, Moldova, Montenegro, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, San Marino, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Singapore, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Syrian Arab Republic, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States of America, Uruguay, Venezuela, Wales and Zimbabwe. In addition to this there are two collective pavilions: Central Asia Pavilion and Istituto Italo-Latino Americano. In 2013, eleven new participant countries developed national pavilions for the Biennale: Angola, Bosnia and Herzegowina, the Bahamas, Bahrain, the Ivory Coast, Kosovo, Kuwait, the Maldives, Paraguay, Tuvalu, and the Holy See. In 2015, five new participant countries developed pavilions for the Biennale: Grenada,[43] Republic of Mozambique, Republic of Seychelles, Mauritius and Mongolia. In 2017, three countries participated in the Art Biennale for the first time: Antigua & Barbuda, Kiribati, and Nigeria.[44] In 2019, four countries participated in the Art Biennale for the first time: Ghana, Madagascar, Malaysia, and Pakistan.[45]
As well as the national pavilions there are countless "unofficial pavilions"[46] that spring up every year. In 2009 there were pavilions such as the Gabon Pavilion and a Peckham pavilion. In 2017 The Diaspora Pavilion bought together 19 artists from complex, multinational backgrounds to challenge the prevalence of the nation state at the Biennale.[47]
The Internet Pavilion (Italian: Padiglione Internet) was founded in 2009 as a platform for activists and artists working in new media.[48][49][50] Subsequent editions were held since,[51] 2013,[51] in conjunction with the biennale.[52]

Juuichimen Kannon 十一面観音
Sk: Ekadasamukha. Eleven-headed Kannon; a form of *Kannon 観音 with eleven miniature faces around the top of his head. One of the Six Kannon *Roku Kannon 六観音 and responsible for the human realm. In painting and sculpture, Juuichimen Kannon may be shown seated or standing, but standing images are more common, especially in sculpture. The deity usually is shown with two arms, although sometimes with four. When two armed, he usually carries a water jar with a lotus in his left hand which makes a mudra of the absence of fear *semui-in 施無畏印, and with his right hand makes the mudra of the granting of wishes *yogan-in 与願印. The number of faces is usually eleven, though this number may or may not include the main face of the image (thus making the total number eleven or twelve). A form with nine faces, Kumen Kannon 九面観音 also exists (ex. 8c *danzou 檀像 in Houryuuji 法隆寺). The placement of the heads varies. Bodhisattva heads bosatsumen 菩薩面 are situated in either one or two tiers with the head of a Buddha butsumen 仏面 at the top. The faces of the bodhisattvas usually include three benign faces jihimen 慈悲面, three angry faces shinnumen 瞋怒面, three plain faces with fangs kugejoushutsumen 狗牙上出面; also known as gejoushutsumen 牙上出面 and, at the back, a laughing face daishoumen 大笑面; also known as bouaku daishoumen 暴悪大笑面, daibakushoumen 大爆笑面. A small standing image of *Amida 阿弥陀, referred to as a *kebutsu 化仏, may be added in front of his crown as well.
There are different theories to account for the meaning of Juuichimen's multiple heads. On a folk level, there is a story that his head split into many because of his worry over sentient beings. On a higher level, he removes the eleven impediments of sentient beings. The positioning of the heads clearly indicates, that the elevated head of the Buddha rises above the others and iconography evokes the ten stages of the bodhisattva path, with the Buddha as the final result. The encapsulation of these processes into one image shows the presence of all within the bodhisattva, and suggests the fully enlightened bodhisattva as the ideal.
The origin of the iconography is unclear, but in India, multi-headed, multi-armed figures were used by the 7c to express the complex religious truths and practices of Buddhism. Although few examples are extant in India, a sculpted 7-8c image of Juuichimen Kannon with four arms in the cave #41 at Kanheri is well-known. In China, Juuichimen was commonly portrayed from the early Tang dynasty (early 7c), and the extant examples are found in paintings in Dunhuang 敦煌 (Jp: Tonkou caves #321 and #334) as well as in bronze and stone sculptures. In Japan, belief in the power of Juuichimen Kannon is recorded from the mid 7c, and the deity was propitiated especially for aid in convalescense from illnesses. Sculptural and painted images were common in the Nara period (8c) and became extremely popular in the Heian period (9-12c). There are numerous extant examples, many of fine quality, such as a painted image on the walls of the *Kondou 金堂 (late 7c) in Houryuuji 法隆寺, Nara (burnt down in 1949). Devotion centered upon the practice of group confessions before an image of the deity, the most famous of which was the shuni-e 修二会 ceremony of the *Nigatsudou 二月堂 in Toudaiji 東大寺, Nara (commonly known as omizutori お水取り), which began in 752 and continues to the present day. In Esoteric Buddhism mikkyou 密教, Juuichimen appears in the *Taizoukai mandara 胎蔵界曼荼羅. In Shinto art *Shintou bijutsu 神道美術, Juuichimen Kannon is a common choice as the *honjibutsu 本地仏 (Buddhist counterpart) of female Shinto deities *kami 神 and is one of the two most common choices as honjibutsu of the Sun Goddess Amaterasu Oomikami 天照大神 (the other being *Dainichi 大日). Juuichimen Kannon may be painted; 1) alone, as in the large Kamakura period (14c) painting held by Shidoji 志度寺 in Kagawa prefecture; 2) in his paradise *Fudaraku 補陀洛 (on a rock in the ocean) often accompained by Zenzai Douji 善財童子; or 3) in a setting like that of the large panel painting in Kaijuusenji 海住山寺, Kyoto, in which the deity descends from his paradise across the sea to welcome the deceased, *raigou 来迎, accompanied by the 25 bodhisattvas. In addition, the fame of distinct sculptural images of Juuichimen Kannon also lead their being the subject of paintings. One such example is the principal image of Hasedera 長谷寺 in Nara, which as a special feature holds a pewter staff *shakujou 錫杖 in its right hand and a lotus in a vase in its left. This very large image stands on a smooth, flat stone uncovered in a landslide, (instead of the lotus pedestal *rengeza 蓮華座, on which the deity first appeared). The story of the making of the image appears in the illustrated history of the temple *shaji engi-e 社寺縁起絵.

LA LOTTA DELLE MADRI DEL CORNO D'AFRICA .
Namanakwee Ngamor
Ho sempre creduto che sotterrare un figlio o una figlia sia la più traumatica esperienza che possa accadere a una madre, in quanto è una violazione dell’ordine naturale della vita. Ma se, nel peggiore dei casi, tuo figlio muore perché non sei in grado di fornirgli il cibo, il tuo dolore è aggravato per non essere in grado di rispondere all’istinto materno basilare: nutrirlo.
Ecco perché, quando Namanakwee Ngamor mi confida che meno di un mese fa suo figlio è morto di fame, nei suoi occhi affranti ho letto molto più che semplice dolore. “Mio figlio aveva cinque anni. Non abbiamo mangiato per intere settimane, ma lui non ce l’ha fatta a sopravvivere”, spiega la donna, mentre tiene in mano un sacco vuoto che utilizzerà per raccogliere la propria porzione di cibo distribuita oggi da Oxfam a Kanukurdio.
Questo piccolo villaggio nel nord del Kenya, è solo uno dei tanti colpiti dalla grave crisi alimentare del Corno d’Africa che minaccia più di 12 milioni di persone nella regione.
La fame non perdona, sta addosso ai più deboli, uccidendo soprattutto vecchi e bambini, ma è talmente devastante che colpisce anche gli adulti.
Le madri, dopo anni di avversità, hanno i corpi fragili e sono sempre più deboli: potrebbero soccombere da un momento all’altro.
Mary Nsaniana ha da poco seppellito sua figlia, madre dei suoi nipoti, morta a seguito di una malattia che, secondo la sua saggezza di donna cinquantenne, era dovuta al perdurare costante di fame e sete. La fame e la sete, infatti, sono due fattori che violano il naturale ordine della vita.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
La popolazione locale non può comprendere le ragioni di questa siccità, il perché non piova da oltre cinque anni e nemmeno dove possano trovare la forza per andare avanti dopo aver perduto circa il 60% del loro bestiame. Le loro capre, le pecore, il bestiame, e anche i loro cammelli stanno morendo. E con la loro scomparsa sta venendo meno la loro unica fonte di reddito. “Nel momento in cui gli animali muoiono, capiamo che le persone seguiranno lo stesso destino ”, afferma Mary con un’espressione che tradisce un sentimento di rabbia e disperazione.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Un sentimento di disperazione, ma anche una determinazione a cercare un’alternativa alla morte. “Abbiamo bisogno di grano, così possiamo preparare le pappe per i nostri bambini prima che sia troppo tardi”, esclama Aite Eknba mentre tenta di sorreggere le sue bimbe, Apùa e Evei, i cui piccoli corpi stanno cedendo al tremendo peso della fame.
Dopo tre settimane in cui l’unico alimento a disposizione dei bambini è stato l’ edapal, uno dei frutti selvatici che cresce nella regione, i piccoli sono talmente deboli che per molto tempo non potranno digerire cibo solido. Nel caso in cui le madri non trovino al più presto del cibo appropriato per nutrirli, un’altra violazione dell’ordine naturale della vita minaccerà anche il villaggio di Nakimnet, dove più di 4.400 persone dipendono totalmente dagli aiuti umanitari.
In questo villaggio già sono stati seppelliti quattro bambini, vittime della fame e altri 626 stanno soffrendo a causa della malnutrizione. È impossibile misurare il sentimento di impotenza di queste madri, che sono obbligate ad aspettare per giorni gli aiuti umanitari per poter sfamare i propri figli.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aite, Mary e Namanakwee sono solo tre delle migliaia di madri della regione che non hanno niente da mangiare e tantomeno hanno cibo da dare ai propri figli. I loro mariti, che una volta erano fieri pastori nomadi, oggi possono solo aspettare che cada finalmente la pioggia di cui hanno disperato bisogno.
La carenza di pascoli e i conflitti etnici che hanno colpito alcune aree al confine della regione un tempo fertili, sottopone i villaggi ad un virtuale stato di assedio, obbligando le persone a restare in questa drammatica attesa.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuttavia, per molte di queste donne, la sosta obbligata è stata l’occasione per prendere delle iniziative. Nel villaggio di Mila Matatu, ho parlato con Alice Atabo, l’agente designata da Oxfam per favorire la distribuzione del cibo. Questa donna intraprendente si è occupata di metter su un piccolo negozio di alimentari e può così aiutare la comunità a rifornirsi di cibo.
“Tutto cominciò quando decisi di investire una piccola somma, che Oxfam mi aveva donato, perché partecipai a un progetto che prevedeva dei finanziamenti per avviare attività. Io comprai prodotti come latte, farina e zucchero. Non appena le persone vennero a sapere del mio negozio, iniziarono a comprare gli alimenti basilari da me. Nel corso del tempo”, spiega Alice, “sono stata in grado di rientrare economicamente con le spese e anche di fare richiesta di un ulteriore credito per espandere la mia attività. Inoltre, mi venne data una parte di cibo da distribuire gratuitamente alle famiglie più bisognose che venivano a prenderlo nel mio negozio”.
“Oggi il cibo arriva dal centro di distribuzione e le persone, che possiedono dei buoni d’acquisto, sono impazienti di comprarlo, perché scarseggia e sta per finire”, afferma la donna mentre tiene in braccio il più piccolo dei suoi otto figli, un bimbo sorridente che, mentre la madre parla, gioca con la sua collana.
Alice è consapevole di essere una madre fortunata, perché ha abbastanza cibo per nutrire i suoi bambini.

La lucha de una madre en el Cuerno de África
10 Agosto, 2011| Blog channel: Conflicto y Desastres
Siempre he pensado que enterrar a un hijo es la experiencia más traumática que puede ocurrirle a una madre, una alteración del orden natural de la vida. Pero si además, tu hijo muere porque no has podido alimentarle, a ese dolor se añade la impotencia de no haber podido responder al más básico de los instintos maternales: nutrir a los hijos.
Por ello, cuando Namanakwee Ngamor, me cuenta que hace menos de un mes el hambre mató a su hijo, sus ojos abatidos expresan más que dolor. “Mi hijo tenía 5 años. Estaba cada vez más débil y yo no tenía nada más para darle qué frutos silvestres. Llevábamos semanas sin comer y mi hijo no pudo aguantar”, explica la mujer mientras sostiene entres sus manos un saco vacío, que utilizará para recoger la parte que le corresponde de la distribución de alimentos que hoy está realizando Oxfam en Kanukurdio. Esta aldea del norte de Kenia, es una más de las afectada por la grave crisis alimentaria en el Cuerno de África, que amenaza a más de 15 millones de personas en la región.

El hambre se mece lentamente sobre los más débiles, adormeciendo primero a los niños y a los ancianos, pero sus estragos empiezan a alcanzar también a los adultos. Las madres, con sus cuerpos ya frágiles por años de penuria, se están debilitando cada vez más y en cualquier momento ellas también pueden caer. Mary Nsaniana enterró hace poco a su hija, la madre de sus dos nietos, tras una enfermedad que según la experiencia de esta mujer de 50 años, fue una acumulación de hambre y sed. Hambre y sed que alteran el orden natural de la vida.
Tampoco los habitantes de la zona comprenden por qué hay sequia, por qué ya hace más de cinco años que no llueve ni cómo van a poder seguir adelante cuando han perdido cerca del 60% de su ganado. Las cabras, ovejas, vacas, e incluso ahora los camellos, se están desvaneciendo y con ellos su única fuente de ingresos. “Cuando mueren los animales sabemos que los siguientes somos nosotros, los humanos”, explica Mary, con ademanes que muestran el enojo de su desesperanza.
Desesperanza y urgencia para que no mueran más personas. “Necesitamos cereales para poder darles papilla a los niños, antes de que sea demasiado tarde” clama Aite Eknoba, tratando de sostener erguidos a sus dos hijos, Apúa y Evei, cuyos cuerpecitos se doblegan ante la fuerza del hambre. Tras haber pasado tres semanas comiendo edapal, uno de los frutos silvestres que se encuentra en la zona, los niños están tan débiles que ya no retienen ningún alimento sólido. Si su madre no encuentra algo adecuado para alimentarles rápidamente, otra nueva alteración del orden natural de la vida se cernirá sobre Nakinomet, una aldea dónde más de 4.400 personas dependen totalmente de la ayuda humanitaria.
Esta comunidad ya ha enterrado a cuatro niños víctimas del hambre y otros 626 sufren desnutrición. Según las recientes evaluaciones que se han llevado a cabo en la región de Turkana, 37 niños de cada 100 muestran signos de desnutrición. Lo que no podemos medir todavía es el grado de impotencia de sus madres, obligadas a esperar que llegue la ayuda humanitaria para poder alimentar a sus hijos unos días más.
Aite, Mary y Namanakwee son sólo tres madres entre miles de mujeres afectadas en la región, que no tienen nada con qué alimentarse, ni ellas ni sus hijos. Sus maridos, antes orgullosos pastores trashumantes, sólo esperan que llegue la tan ansiada lluvia. La falta de pasto y el conflicto interétnico que afecta ciertas zonas de pastoreo fronterizas han sitiado a estas comunidades, obligándolas a permanecer en esta dramática espera.

Sin embargo, para algunas de estas madres, la espera no carece de iniciativa. En Mila Matatu, otra aldea de la zona, me encuentro con Alice Atabo, la agente de intercambio designada por Oxfam para apoyar la distribución de alimentos. Esta emprendedora mujer ha hecho crecer una pequeña tienda de alimentación que provee a la comunidad. “Todo empezó cuando decidí invertir una pequeña cantidad, que me había dado Oxfam al participar en un proyecto al cash x work, en comprar productos como leche, harina, azúcar. Tan pronto supieron que en mi tienda podían abastecerse de lo básico, empezaron a venir de todos lados. Y con el tiempo, pude volver a pedir otro crédito y ampliar mi aprovisionamiento. Ahora además, recepciono los alimentos de la distribución gratuita y las familias más necesitadas vienen a recogerlos a mi tienda” explica Alice.
“Hoy han llegado los alimentos de la distribución y la gente ya está impaciente con sus tarjetas de intercambio preparadas, pues ya no les queda nada para comer”, nos explica mientras sostiene en sus brazos al último de sus ocho hijos, un bebé sonriente que juega con los collares de su madre. Alice sabe que es una madre afortunada pues tiene con qué nutrir a sus hijos.
Oxfam interviene en la región del norte de Kenia, distribuyendo alimentos a más de 200.000 personas. La organización trabaja desde hace años con las comunidades de pastores, apoyando la habilitación de puntos de agua, interviniendo con programas de dinero a cambio de trabajo y acompañando en el desarrollo de nuevos medios de vida alternativos para las comunidades de pastoralistas.

Le combat quotidien des mères dans la Corne de l'Afrique
15 Août, 2011| Blog channel: Conflits et Urgences
Devoir enterrer son enfant m'a toujours semblé être l'expérience la plus traumatisante que pouvait vivre une mère, une sorte de bouleversement de l'ordre naturel de la vie. Mais si en plus, cet enfant meurt car vous n'avez pas été en mesure de le nourrir, alors vient s'ajouter à la douleur de la perte d'un enfant celle de ne pas avoir pu répondre à un des instincts maternels primaires : celui de nourrir ses enfants.
Namanakwee Ngamor, installée à Kanukurdio, au nord du Kenya, a perdu son fils, âgé de 5 ans. Photo : Irina Fuhrmann /Oxfam
Quand Namanakwee Ngamor m'explique comment, il y a moins d'un mois, elle a perdu son fils, mort de faim, ses yeux trahissent bien plus que de la douleur. "Mon fils avait 5 ans. Il était de plus en plus faible, et je n'avais rien d'autre à lui donner que des baies. Nous sommes restés des semaines sans manger et il n'avait plus assez d'énergie pour se tenir debout", m'explique-t-elle, en tenant dans ses mains le sac vide qui lui servira à garder la ration distribuée plus tard par Oxfam à Kanukurdio. Cette zone du nord du Kenya est une des plus gravement touchées par la crise dans la Corne de l'Afrique, qui menace à terme plus de 15 millions de personnes.
La faim s'installe lentement parmi les populations les plus faibles, frappant en priorité les enfants et les personnes âgées, mais ses effets sont également de plus en plus visibles chez les adultes. Les mères, dont les corps ont déjà été éprouvés par des années de pénuries, sont très affaiblies et peuvent succomber à tout moment. Mary Nsaniana a enterré il y a peu sa fille, la mère de ses deux petits-enfants, morte de complications qui, selon cette femme de 50 ans, sont consécutives à la faim et la soif persistantes. Cette faim et cette soif qui bouleverse l'ordre naturel de la vie.
Les habitants de ces régions ne savent pas non plus d'où vient cette sécheresse, pourquoi il n'a pas plu suffisamment depuis cinq ans, ni comment ils vont pourvoir continuer à vivre en ayant perdu presque 60% de leurs réserves de grain. Chèvres, moutons, vaches et maintenant également les chameaux périssent lentement, et avec eux l'unique source de revenus des populations. "Quand les animaux commencent à mourir, nous savons que nous, les humains, sommes les suivants", explique Mary, désespérée.
Il est urgent d'intervenir, pour éviter que davantage de personnes ne perdent la vie. "Nous avons besoin de céréales, pour préparer des bouillies pour les enfants, avant qu'il ne soit trop tard", demande Aite Eknoba, tout en essayant de maintenir debout ses deux enfants, Apúa et Evei, dont les petits corps sont meurtris par la faim. Après avoir mangé de l'edapal, une baie locale, pendant trois semaines, les enfants étaient tellement faibles qu'ils n'arrivaient plus à digérer des aliments solides. Si leur mère ne trouve pas rapidement de quoi les nourrir, l'ordre naturel de la vie sera une nouvelle fois bouleversé à Nakinomet, où 4 400 personnes dépendent entièrement de l'aide humanitaire.
Cette communauté a déjà dû enterrer quatre enfants des suites de la famine, et 626 autres souffrent de malnutrition. Selon des évaluations récentes effectuées dans la région de Turkana, 37% des enfants sont sous-alimentés. Il est à l'heure actuelle encore impossible d'évaluer ce taux chez les mères, obligées d'attendre l'arrivée de l'aide humanitaire pour pouvoir nourrir leurs enfants un jour de plus.
Alice Atabo a ouvert un petit magasin d'alimentation pour sa communauté, à Mila Matatu, au nord du Kenya. Photo : Irina Fuhrmann /Oxfam
Aite, Mary et Namanakwee ne sont que trois des milliers de femmes touchées par la crise et qui ne trouvent plus de quoi s'alimenter, ni pour elles, ni pour leurs enfants. Leurs maris, de fiers bergers itinérants, en sont réduits à attendre l'arrivée tant espérée de la pluie. Le manque de pâturages et le conflit ethnique qui touche certaines zones de la région ont coincé ici ces communautés, les obligeant à poursuivre cette attente dramatique.
Cependant, pour certaines de ces mères, l'attente n'exclut pas la prise d'initiatives. À Mila Matatu, une autre zone de la région affectée, j'ai rencontré Alice Atabo, désignée par Oxfam comme agente de liaison pour aider à la distribution de nourriture. Cette femme entreprenante a mis en place un petit magasin d'alimentation pour la communauté. "Tout a commencé quand j'ai décidé d'investir une petite partie de l'argent reçu par Oxfam dans le cadre d'un projet 'argent-contre-travail' pour acheter des produits comme du lait, du sucre et de la farine. Dès que le bruit s'est répandu qu'on pouvait trouver des produits dans mon échoppe, les gens ont commencé à affluer. Peu de temps après, j'ai pu demander un autre crédit et ainsi remplir mon magasin. Je reçois également les rations alimentaires des familles les plus faibles, qui peuvent ensuite venir les retirer chez moi", explique Alice.
"La distribution de nourriture a eu lieu aujourd'hui, et les gens attendent avec impatience, leur carte d'approvisionnement à la main, car il ne leur reste plus rien à manger,", nous raconte-t-elle en tenant à la main le dernier de ses huit enfants, un bébé souriant qui joue avec les colliers de sa mère. Alice sait qu'elle a de la chance, car elle possède de quoi nourrir ses enfants.
Oxfam intervient dans la région du nord du Kenya en distribuant des produits alimentaires pour 200 000 personnes. L'organisation travaille depuis des années avec les communautés pastorales, en appuyant l'installation de points d'eau, en mettant en place des programmes "argent-contre-travail" et en les accompagnant dans le développement de moyens de subsistance alternatifs.

L'ULTIMO MESSAGGIO DEL 25 SETTEMBRE 2011
Quote of the day ( 25 settembre 2011 )
"Cari figli, Oggi, figlioli, vi invito, ad essere con Gesù attraverso la preghiera, per poter scoprire la bellezza delle creature di Dio tramite l'esperienza personale nella preghiera. Non potete parlare né testimoniare della preghiera se non pregate, perciò, figlioli, nel silenzio del cuore rimanete con Gesù, perché Lui vi cambi e vi trasformi con il Suo Amore."

IL SANTO DEL GIORNO
OGGI MARTEDI' 26 SETTEMBRE - .S. VINCENZO DE PAOLI .
Cosma e Damiano, medici anàrgiri (gratuiti), secondo un'antica tradizione subirono il martirio a Ciro in Siria e il loro culto fu assai diffuso in tutta la Chiesa fin dal sec. IV. Il 26 settembre è la probabile data della dedicazione della basilica che a Roma porta il loro nome, edificata da Felice IV (525-530). Di loro si fa memoria nel Canone romano

Η βίβλος λέει: «ιδού, έρχεται μετά των νεφελών, και θέλει ιδεί αυτόν πας οφθαλμός… » (Αποκ. 1:7)Από αυτό το κεφάλαιο, δευτέρα Παρουσία του Κυρίου θα πρέπει να έρχεται σε σύννεφο εμφανίστηκε ανοικτή σε όλα τα έθνη; Αλλά, η Βίβλος λέει και πάλι: «θέλω ελθεί επί σε ως κλέπτης». (Αποκ.3:3)Αυτό το κομμάτι λέει ότι ο Κύριος έρχεται ξανά μυστικός, είναι να κλέψει θησαυρό. πώς είναι διαφορετικός ο τρόπος με τον οποίο ο Κύριος έρχεται σε αυτά τα δύο κεφάλαια; Ο Κύριος έρχεται με τα σύννεφα ανοιχτή, οι άνθρωποι μπορούν να δουν; Ή μυστικοπαθής να έρχεται; Χριστιανική Εκκλησία ταινία "Yearning" θα αποκαλύψει τις αμφιβολίες.

bestpauljaisini.blogspot.com/2015/01/muse-gif-1.html The art conundrum; the disconnect between society and art establishment
Celebrity art dealers artists and art collectors have become superstars of such caliber F. Scott Fitzgerald would’t imagine in a wildest Great Gatsby's wet dream.
The breathtaking fables of high-flying multi-million art deals inspire the sensational and entertaining articles to be written by the writers who could barely earn a living nowadays. How many people, however, actually become the art lovers learning about the adventures of the glitzy art stars? None.
The art world is a lonely Narcissus that admires the own reflection. But desperately wants the public affection and attention unwilling to admit the need of new source for awe. Or how many art critics made a serious attempt to explain in written word the post post-modern art scene?
What about the artists… is next thought that comes to mind. Maybe this whole problem of art turning into a very sexy fast-money exchange business is due the bad quality artists?
Even television tried to popularize art in the attempt to create a show who wants to be the next American top model I mean artist. But the public only grow less interested, more so, the public wants to take over the art franchise after the so-called digital revolution. Masses of people who could never touch a camera for variety of reasons now turn to photography. For instance, 300 million photographs are uploaded every minute to Facebook, The numbers have power the sheer grandiosity. And yet the art world tries to keep its cool. And more so, continues to be disconnected.
Which could be good or bad depending how one looks at it. Good in a sense of art preservation, not good for survival of the franchise. In most recent global social phenomenon there’s a new traits of human behavior that present a real threat to what is known as highly developed Western culture.

La canción cristiana más hermosa | Todos los hombres, venid a alabar a Dios
I
Un relámpago de Este a Oeste,
el Cristo de los últimos días, ha aparecido trabajando en China.
Su luz verdadera brilla más, la gente va a buscarlo.
Oh, ¡Dios Todopoderoso! Lleno de poder y de gloria.
Sus elegidos acuden a Su trono.
Dios aparece en el mundo para realizar Su obra.
Toda la humanidad, venid a alabarlo, oh reverenciarlo.
II
Escuchad Su voz, ved Su glorioso rostro, presenciad Sus actos.
Venid y adorad a Dios.
La palabra de Dios lo conquista y purifica todo.
Todo el mundo se inclina ante Dios Todopoderoso.
Sus elegidos acuden a Su trono.
Dios aparece en el mundo para realizar Su obra.
Toda la humanidad, venid a alabarlo, oh reverenciarlo.
Reverenciadlo. En toda Su gloria.
Enaltecedlo, porque Él lo merece.
Reverenciadlo. Siempre está para nosotros. Glorificadlo ahora.
III
Sed testigos de Sus obras. Su poder lo domina todo.
Alabad Su justicia, Su santidad y Su amor.
Nadie desea apartarse de la palabra de Dios.
La palabra de Dios difícil es de comprender,
pero trae alegría y luz.
Sus elegidos acuden a Su trono.
Dios aparece en el mundo para realizar Su obra.
Toda la humanidad, venid a alabarlo, oh, y a revernciarlo.
Dios aparece en el mundo para realizar Su obra.
Toda la humanidad, venid a alabarlo, oh, y a revernciarlo.
IV
¡Venid a adorar a Dios! ¡Venid a adorar a Dios!
¡Venid a adorar a Dios! ¡Venid a adorar a Dios!
¡Venid a adorar a Dios! ¡Venid a adorar a Dios!
¡Venid a adorar a Dios! ¡Venid a adorar a Dios!
¡Aleluya!
De “Seguir al Cordero y cantar nuevos cánticos”
This image from my Glass Walls series has been a hard photo for me to get online because I have so, so much that I want to say about it. Not just say. Scream. Pound my fists against the wall (or on a deserving subject). The inspiration behind it enrages me so much, it makes it difficult to remain rational in my description.
That said, this image was inspired by the documentary Blackfish. You probably know what it's about, but for those who don't, it exposes the horrific abuse that goes on in SeaWorld and many, many other marine parks of the kind. Certainly, some may not be as bad as SeaWorld, but when it comes down to it, none of these animals should be in captivity. Especially the orcas.
Kidnapped from their mothers' sides as young calves. Forced to perform in order to eat. Kept in cramped tiny cages where orca-on-orca violence is rampant. Physically and psychologically tortured every single day. Artificially inseminated at very young ages, only to have their young ripped from them and sent to other parks. SeaWorld claims to be a place to celebrate these animals. The truth is, their tanks may as well be filled with the orcas' tears.
It's no wonder that after being kept in such conditions for years and years, many of them become psychotic. They snap and attack their trainers. They may kill their trainers or members of the public who get too close. Frequently, this destructive, hopelessness is turned inward. They bash their heads against the walls of their tanks and chew their teeth to nubs, driven mad in their tiny tanks. Some will have their teeth drilled out of their head - all of their teeth - without any anesthetic at all. Having been to the dentist for far less serious procedures, I can hardly imagine the excruciating pain.
Captive whales typically live about 8-20 years. In the wild, males usually live to about 50-70 and females can reach 80-100. We are essentially looking at human lifespans for these incredibly intelligent, sentient creatures. I suspect they welcome their extremely early deaths.
The size of the tanks they live in has been likened to a human living his whole life in a cage the size of a bathtub. Imagine it: at two, you're kidnapped by a different species, made to perform or you won't be fed, and every minute you're not performing, you're locked back into a cell which makes solitary confinement housing look spacious. How well adjusted would you be? Never mind the malnutrition, being forced to constantly pop out babies, the lack of any positive or natural stimuli. Even with the best of intentions, a marine park would never be able to replicate life in the wild for an orca. And SeaWorld has no intentions for anything other than increasing its bottom line.
To help address this atrocity which continues every day, I asked Travis to shove himself into a bathtub for me and photographed him on a ladder. Now imagine that that tub is virtually his entire world. He's spent years in there. Would you want to watch a show where he was forced to perform? If he started lashing out against his captors, would you blame him? If he tried to end his own life, would you be surprised?
I addressed SeaWorld a bit more directly in a blog post that you can read here. There's also a great article here to get you started on learning the truth behind the lies SeaWorld tells.
I often feel helpless about this problem. I can't physically break into a park and carry the whales out to sea by myself, one by one. And even if I could, the ones born into captivity usually can't make it in the wild anymore. But we can do something. Boycott them. Spread the word. Counter their lies with truth. SeaWorld's only care is profit, and if that dries up, they'll eventually do the right thing. They'll stop kidnapping whales. They'll stop their horribly incestuous breeding program. They'll let the poor whales who are left live out their days in a large, protected enclosure in the sea. It's not freedom, but they've taken that option away from these innocent beasts. It's their best chance at a good life.
Blackfish is widely available for viewing, including streaming on Netflix. I urge you to watch it if you have not yet seen it. But more than that, I ask, no, implore you; do not support SeaWorld or any other marine park with your money. When the money goes, so will they, and one incredible injustice in the world will finally stop.
Please feel free to share this image around online! The more people who know about the issues, the better for all!
Model: Travis Weinand
On a happier note, if you're in or near the LA area, please come by the Creative Arts Group Gallery in Sierra Madre (which is right next door to Pasadena)! They are showing eight of my prints, all from my DreamWorld series, including my latest piece for DreamWorld, A Poisoned Sleep Of Kissless Dreams, which crosses over into my Enchanted Sleep series on life with M.E.. In addition to the prints, they are displaying a number of costume pieces and props which I hand-made for the images being shown. This is how I've always envisioned DreamWorld being shown, with physical pieces of it alongside the final product. Very exciting!
There will be an opening reception on June 20th from 12-2 and I would LOVE it if you stopped by! It's always so nice to put faces to people you've only known online, and it will also help distract me from being nervous ;) If you can't make it to the reception, please do feel free to visit the gallery any other time the show is running! And if you're so inclined, telling the gallery staff that you're there to see my work would also be appreciated :)
Thanks, and I hope to see you there!!

Música de Carlos Cano......Habaneras de Cádiz........Letra de Antonio Burgos
La ciudad de Cádiz es un municipio español situado en la provincia de Cádiz, en la comunidad autónoma de Andalucía, en el extremo suroccidental de la Europa continental. Es la capital de la provincia homónima y una de las dos ciudades principales del área metropolitana de la Bahía de Cádiz-Jerez, tercer núcleo poblacional de Andalucía y uno de los más activos económica e industrialmente, en Andalucía, España. Además, conforma junto a los municipios de Chiclana de la Frontera, El Puerto de Santa María, Jerez de la Frontera, Puerto Real, Rota y San Fernando la Mancomunidad de Municipios Bahía de Cádiz.
La ciudad fue fundada con el nombre de Gádir (en grafía hebrea גדר, y en fenicia , "´gdr"), es decir, "castillo", "fortaleza" o, en general, "recinto murado" en fenicio. Equivale al de "agadir", frecuente en muchos topónimos actuales del norte de África, por ejemplo la Agadir de Marruecos. Aún hoy entre los bereberes agadir significa "recinto murado" según el tamazight y "granero" o "mercado fortificado", según el tashelhit. Gádir fue el enclave fenicio más importante de la antigüedad en la Península Ibérica.
Después, la ciudad fue conocida en griego ático por un nombre similar: τὰ Γάδειρα (Gádeira). En griego jónico, el nombre se deletrea de forma ligeramente diferente: Γήδειρα (Gẽdeira) y así es como aparece en las historias escritas por Heródoto. Ocasionalmente se encuentra el deletreo ἡ Γαδείρα (Gadeíra), como, por ejemplo, en los escritos de Eratóstenes. Así lo atestigua Esteban de Bizancio. En latín, la ciudad es nombrada Gades y en árabe قادس (Qādis).
La importancia histórica y comercial de la ciudad ha hecho que, a partir del autónimo "Cádiz", surjan exónimos que la nombran en italiano, Cadice; en francés, Cadix; en inglés, Cádiz y en caló Peri; hallándose con frecuencia en mapas medievales la forma Cáliz. Asimismo, las formas "Cádi" y "Cai", propias del dialecto andaluz, son muy frecuentes en el ámbito de la oralidad.
Por otros motivos históricos, de colonización y conquista, algunas ciudades que alguna vez estuvieron bajo la soberanía de la corona española han recibido el nombre de Cádiz. Estas ciudades se encuentran en países como los Estados Unidos de América (en California, Indiana, Kentucky y Ohio) y Filipinas. La primera ciudad poblada en Venezuela se llamó Nueva Cádiz, en la Isla de Cubagua, Estado Nueva Esparta, y de la cual sólo quedan ruinas.
Según la mitología griega, el nombre provendría del rey atlante Gadiro, gobernante de la región de Gadeira, hijo de Poseidon y hermano de Atlas.
