Born in the marginalized outskirts and upscale brothels of Buenos Aires, the musical genre slowly but surely seeped into the very roots of the country’s culture and took a strong hold. Fathers would spend years teaching their sons how to dance, singers like Carlos Gardel were national figures, and social gatherings were always accompanied by the sound of the tango concertina, the bandoneon.

Then, two disparate but hugely impactful things arrived: a series of military dictatorships and rock ‘n’ roll. While in opposition in every other respect, the dictatorships and the new music genre inadvertently collaborated in dethroning tango and driving it to near oblivion. The 20th century in Argentina was marked by political, social, and economic unrest. Between 1930 and 1983 there were six coup d’etats led by the military. Peron ruled once again as president from 1973 until his death in 1974. There was also the question of censorship. Atlasobscura. Two figures meet each other face to face. The sharp edges of their geometric bodies are perfect for their precise movements and the lined universe that surrounds them.

The entire scene is so perfectly mathematical, it may take you a couple of seconds to realize these are human dancers and not archaic animations. One of the most celebrated yet surprisingly obscure works associated with the Bauhaus School in Germany, The Triadic Ballet is an avant-garde exploration of space, dance, and the human body. It came from the brilliant mind of Oskar Schlemmer, a painter, sculptor, dancer, and designer, amongst many other things. Obsessed with the idea of freeing art from its restrictions, he used choreographed geography to push the boundaries of the way we use our body. The ballet has been reproduced several times. If three-and-a-half minutes of being under the spell of The Triadic Ballet are not enough, you can enjoy the full version of the performance: Rien ne va plus (1997) - Plot Summary.

Los Murales de LOTO | La Grulla de Hermes. Gracias a los muros y las ciudades que los contienen Por: Jué Karollys (Loto) Cuál sería la pregunta más adecuada para hacerle a un artista. Más precisamente, a uno que se dedique a pintar paredes en la calle, y más precisamente, que esa pregunta, sea sólo una… ¿Qué significa para ti el arte? Mmm… ambigua esa pregunta, pero si tuviese que responder el artista a ella, elegiría, de su repertorio de convicciones, en lo más profundo de su biblioteca mental, las palabras que siempre dijo su maestro de dibujo: ” el arte está más allá de nosotros, es difícil definirlo, es más honesto vivirlo…”, sí, creo que eso diría el artista.

Pero dado que la pregunta no apunta específicamente al oficio de éste artista como tal, creo que la más indicada para éste caso sería: ¿qué significa pintar para ti una pared en la calle?

Después de meses de ausencia, el graffitero inglés regresa con "Better Out Than In" mostrando una obra diaria durante el mes de octubre. Aquí les mostramos las obras más relevantes que hasta el día de hoy se han dado a conocer: Con esta primera pieza, Banksy comenzó su nueva "exposición" en las calles de Manhattan.

El problema de ser Banksy y de trabajar en NY, es que nunca serás bien recibido por los graffiteros locales. Así lucía la pieza a unas cuantas horas de darse a conocer. La segunda pieza no estuvo en las calles. Una buena pieza haciendo referencia al amor y todas las heridas que éste puede causar. Pero para Omar, graffitero local, la pieza no estaba completa. En la puerta de una fábrica de Greenpoint, al norte de Brooklyn apareció esto.

En un terreno de Lower East Side apareció esto. Después apareció este tierno castor quien derrumbó un poste en East New York.

A member of Street Art Utopia on Facebook wrote two year ago this nice piece about the future: – My son, do you want to hear something strange?

– Yes! What? – You know the new tree painting we did on the garage last week. . . – What? – Well, yes, many were. . – Was art forbidden? – Well no, but it had to be in special buildings only. . – Wow. . . – Yes, my son. 71 BiG Walls – A Street Art Collection | STREET ART UTOPIA. 3D Grass Globe Illusion at Paris City Hall. If you are a panda and read this magazine daily, you’ve probably already seen The 5 Most Talented 3D Sidewalk Artists or Anamorphic Typography by Joseph Egan.

These amazing 3D illusions were made using a projection called anamorphosis which allows to create the illusion of three dimensions when viewed from the correct angle. Today, we want to show you another wonderful 3D illusion which is installed in front of the steps of Paris’s city hall. French artist François Abélanet created this incredible 3-dimensional grass globe with the help of about ninety workers and called it ‘Qui croire?’

(‘who to believe?’). When viewed at a certain angle it looks as though it was a large sphere. It took over 5 days to complete the installation requiring 1200 square meters of lawn, 300 square meters of the coverplant sedum, and 650 cubic meters of sand and straw. The 3D Grass Globe is even bigger than it looks in the pictures and spans 100 meters in length. Photo editor | PicMonkey: Free Online Photo Editing.
