DESCRIPTION:5:00 – 7:00 pm \nJoin us for a free public reception celebrating the opening of Rendered Presence: Artistas de Nuevo México. Guest curated by Vicente Telles\, the exhibition explores artworks by artists living and working throughout New Mexico. Many of the artworks are figurative and created on a scale that challenges limited understandings of New Mexican art. In their own way\, each artist explores identity and the self\, art history\, and the expanse of Hispanic\, Chicana/o/x\, and Latina/o/x contemporary art. \nAcompáñenos en una recepción gratuita celebrando la apertura de  Rendered Presence: Artistas de Nuevo México. El curador invitado es Vicente Telles y la exhibición explora las obras de arte de artistas viviendo y trabajando por todo Nuevo México. Muchas de las obras de arte son figurativas y creadas en una escala que crea dificultades de comprensión para los que tienen un limitado entendimiento del arte nuevo mexicano. Cada artista\, de su manera personal\, explora la identidad y su ser interior\, la historia del arte y la gran extensión del arte contemporáneo Hispano\, Chicana/o/x y Latina/o/x. \n  \nParticipating Artists / Artistas participantes: \nVanessa Alvarado \nBeedallo \nGabriela Campos \nRubén Cantú \nPola Lopez \nAndres Martinez \nIsabela Ortega \nEric Romero \nTravis Ruiz \nMarie Sena \nVicente Telles \nDaisy Quezada Ureña \nJim Vogel \n  \nAbout the curator: \nVicente Telles is a Santero and Cultural Iconographer who is driven by the desire to honor the culture and tradition of his native New Mexico. He began painting traditional retablos using natural pigments created from clays and minerals on homemade gesso\, which is then sealed with an archival varnish. Always looking for ways to push boundaries\, his style has evolved to include various interpretations of traditional Catholic and cultural iconography\, which is evident in his social commentary retablos and his ongoing border culture series. In recent years\, Telles has worked to honor his network of fellow artists and is engaging in opportunities to expand network connections through organizing art shows throughout the southwest. Recently\, he was instrumental in organizing the multi-site exhibition Son de Allí y son de Acá in Albuquerque as well as in San Diego at Chicano Park Museum and Cultural Center. \nAcerca del curador: \nVicente Telles es un Santero y Iconógrafo Cultural que es motivado por su deseo de honrar la cultura y tradiciones de su Nuevo México natal. Comenzó pintando retablos tradicionales usando pigmentos creados de arcillas y minerales en yeserías hecho en casa que después se sella con un barniz de archivo. Siempre buscando nuevos modos de extender los límites\, su estilo se ha evolucionado para incluir varias interpretaciones tradicionales\, católicas y la cultura iconográfica\, evidente en sus comentarios sociales en sus retablos y sus series incesantes de la cultura fronteriza. En los años recientes ha trabajado en homenajear su red de artistas colegas. Está participando en las oportunidades para extender la red de conexiones a través de la organización de exposiciones de arte por todo el sudoeste. Recientemente jugó un papel importante en la organización de sitios múltiples de la exhibición Son de Allí y son de Acá en Albuquerque y San Diego en el Museo del Parque Chicano y Centro Cultural.

SUMMARY:Instituto Cervantes Film Series: Generaciones and El país del futuro
DESCRIPTION:2:00 am (MST) \nIn this online film series\, which plays throughout the month of September on the Instituto Cervantes Vimeo channel\, we bring together\, in collaboration with the Punto y Raya platform\, four sessions with experimental pieces that allow us to explore the possibilities of the audio-visual image and abstraction as a form of creation: a freer creation\, where form\, color\, movement and sound compose evocative messages. \nThe short films will be available on the Cervantes Institute’s Vimeo channel for one week\, starting at 2:00 am on September 19. \nLink Generaciones: https://vimeo.com/video/963031836 \nLink El País del futuro: https://vimeo.com/video/963034780 \nThe Tunisian cities of Tunis and Sousse were the setting for two workshops coordinated by the Instituto Cervantes of Tunis under the title “Counterline and Counterpoint” held in November 2023. \nAbstracción en movimiento: Punto y Raya at the Instituto Cervantes \nStudents from the Lycée Pierre Mendès France in Tunis and the Mhamed Driss Lycée Français International in Sousse were guided by the founders of the international platform Punto y Raya\, dedicated to the production\, promotion and education of audiovisual arts in its purest form\, Ana Santos and Nöel Palazzo\, to create two abstract audiovisual works inspired by the classical mosaics housed in some museums in Tunisia. The final work is a similar dialogue between organic and geometric forms\, creating its own moving designs and fluctuating freely between one style and another to tell a story of harmony and counterpoint. \n \nInspired by the ancient mosaics that can be found in the Bardo National Museum or the Archaeological Museum of El Djem in Tunis; mixing themes of Greek mythology\, country scenes\, hunting or landscapes\, from the third century BC to the fifth century AD\, with games of shapes\, rhythms and compositions more geometric and closer to the Islamic tradition\, Generaciones and El país del futuro propose precious narratives where nature is always present despite the high degree of abstraction in the image. \nScreening: Generaciones y El país del futuro; Director/s: Punto y Raya (Nöel Palazzo y Ana Santos); Year: 2023; Format: Digital; Running time: Cortometraje – 1 min; Genre: Anamation/Animación; Country: Túnez; Rating/Calificacion: SC \n“Abstracción en movimiento” presents the pieces produced by those attending the Punto y Raya workshops held at the Instituto Cervantes centers in Prague\, Tunis\, Utrecht and Warsaw\, since 2021. \nYoung students between the ages of 12 and 16\, guided by artists and expert facilitators and directed by Noel Palazzo and Ana Santos – directors of the Punto y Raya Festival – offer us for this cycle evocative films with great communicative force\, created from simple forms and updated animation and illusionism techniques adapted to the new possibilities offered by the digital world. \nindicated until 2:00 am the following Thursday. \n“Abstracción en movimiento” Program:\n• September 5: Live Visual Music (2021)\, coordinated by Aurora Gasull\n• September 12: Con ton y son (2022)\, coordinated by Pepon Meneses and Laura Ginès\n• September 19: Generations and The Country of the Future (2023)\, coordinated by Ana Santos and Nöel Palazzo\n• September 26: Abstract phantasmagorias (2023)\, coordinated by Ana Santos and Nöel Palazzo. \nAll titles will be available on the Instituto Cervantes Vimeo channel for one week\, from 2:00 am on the Thursday indicated until 2:00 am the following Thursday.

SUMMARY:Instituto Cervantes Film Series: Fantasmagorías abstractas
DESCRIPTION:2:00 am (MST) \nIn this online film series\, which will play throughout the month of September on the Instituto Cervantes Vimeo channel\, we bring together\, in collaboration with the Punto y Raya platform\, four sessions with experimental pieces that allow us to explore the possibilities of the audio-visual image and abstraction as a form of creation: a freer creation\, where form\, color\, movement and sound compose evocative messages. \nThe short films will be available on the Cervantes Institute’s Vimeo channel for one week\, starting at 2:00 am on September 12. Cervantes Vimo Link Here. \nAbstracción en movimiento: Punto y Raya at the Instituto Cervantes \nSeparated by more than four centuries\, the two diverse technologies of theatrical illusionism and computer science meet in an audio-visual dialogue created by high school students from the Visser’t Hooft Lyceum in Leiden (The Netherlands) under the direction of Punto y Raya founders Ana Santos and Nöel Palazzo\, dedicated to the production\, promotion and education of audio-visual arts in their purest state. \n \n \nThis powerful abstract film – born from a workshop held in December 2023 at the Cervantes Institute in Utrecht – was created frame by frame by drawing directly on the tablet with the free FlipaClip application and using the reflections produced by a four-sided cone with an angulation of 45º with respect to the surface of the screen. \nThe ghostly effect known as Pepper’s ghost\, which consists of seeing the reflection of the real image through the angulation of acetate sheets and glass panels\, merges with 21st-century computer technology to create Fantasmagorías abstractas\, an evocative and emotive film\, in which abstraction becomes a universal language (form\, color\, movement and sound) accessible to all. \nScreening: Fantasmagorías abstractas ; Director/s: Punto y Raya (Nöel Palazzo y Ana Santos); Year: 2023; Format: Digital; Running time: Cortometraje – 2 min; Genre: Animation/Animación; Country: Países Bajos; Rating/Calificacion: SC \n“Abstracción en movimiento” presents the pieces produced by those attending the Punto y Raya workshops held at the Instituto Cervantes centers in Prague\, Tunis\, Utrecht and Warsaw\, since 2021. \nYoung students between the ages of 12 and 16\, guided by artists and expert facilitators and directed by Noel Palazzo and Ana Santos – directors of the Punto y Raya Festival – offer us for this cycle evocative films with great communicative force\, created from simple forms and updated animation and illusionism techniques adapted to the new possibilities offered by the digital world. \n“Abstracción en movimiento” Program:\n• September 5: Live Visual Music (2021)\, coordinated by Aurora Gasull\n• September 12: Con ton y son (2022)\, coordinated by Pepon Meneses and Laura Ginès\n• September 19: Generations and The Country of the Future (2023)\, coordinated by Ana Santos and Nöel Palazzo\n• September 26: Abstract phantasmagorias (2023)\, coordinated by Ana Santos and Nöel Palazzo. \nAll titles will be available on the Instituto Cervantes Vimeo channel for one week\, from 2:00 am on the Thursday indicated until 2:00 am the following Thursday.

SUMMARY:Instituto Cervantes Film Series: Día del Cine Español: 7 mesas (de billar francés)
DESCRIPTION:The film will be available on the Cervantes Institute’s Vimeo channel for 48 hours\, starting at 12:00 pm (MTS) on October 5. Instituto Cervantes. Canal Vimeo HERE. \nThe fourth edition of Spanish Film Day\, to be held on October 6\, is presented as the consolidation of an event that aims to raise awareness of the importance of Spanish film heritage as an essential part of contemporary culture. \nFor the first time\, the film selected to commemorate this day is directed by a woman. It is 7 mesas (de billar francés)\, the fifth feature film by Gracia Querejeta\, a filmmaker who belongs to a family that is an essential reference in Spanish cinema. \n \nThis family melodrama showcases all the ingredients of the concern for human relationships that Spanish cinema has maintained throughout its history. With a great cast headed by actresses Maribel Verdú and Blanca Portillo\, the film’s story of solidarity and self-improvement shows a way of life that underlines women’s ability to reinvent themselves in times of crisis. \nThe neighborhood setting makes the billiard tables that title this cinematographic work become an image that symbolizes a world resistant to the onslaught of the fluid life we seem to live today. The struggle to rescue and revive these spaces of coexistence results in a wonderful hymn to the preponderance of public space and its inestimable value for citizenship. \nThe film had a remarkable national and international tour: in addition to its presence in various festivals\, the actresses Maribel Verdú and Amparo Baró were awarded the goya awards for best female main cast performance\, respectively. 7 mesas (de billar francés)\, produced and premiered in the 21st century\, forces us to think that heritage continues to be created at all times in the cinematographic sphere\, where production continues to be a significant reference in the lives of spectators. \nDirector/s: Gracia Querejeta | Year: 2007 | Format: Digital | Running time: Largometraje – 112 min | Genre: Ficción/Fiction | Country: España/Spain | Original version: español/Spanish | Subtitles: inglés/English | Rated/Calificacion: TP/All audiences \n
