Free River Boat Plans

A good weekend.

.
The last 17, and with darkness reigning Casasola House Project Director Rodrigo Montes de Oca Carlos Rojo, in the main courtyard of the Museum of the City, the appointment was at 7 pm but expect more justification I hope auditorium almost an hour.

Which gave me time to see the very interesting exhibition on Guillermo Kahlo, "Report Kahlo, Mexico City, one hundred years of heritage," and hear the author of the counterpart Rodrigo Vázquez Moreno, the sample has twice speech show Kahlo's impeccable technique to capture the architectural beauty, and the current effort with the most similar as possible to imitate. Rodrigo Vazquez

visitors to his audience night, excited to tell the adventures of the challenge, one of his conclusions is overwhelming: to be an artist of the camera as Kahlo's no small thing, not imitation. Vázquez work even care fails freshness and warmth of visible light on the master. Returning to the patio

still rest me time to sit and watch the slide show from the beginning, but unfortunately the sound was so poor that there were parts where I just get carried away by imagination. A confusing plot, lavish images of the revolution, and activation of primary and secondary school to demonstrate what and how to understand the historical process. The credits clears all images belong to the Casasola archive.

The "documentary" about Casasola is completely partial, and we must not blame those who gave their opinion, a matter of editing.

Among the audience was Gustavo Casasola Salamanca and daughter Vanya, there was no opportunity to talk with them.

The world is small, the morning of Saturday 20 walking down the center of Coyoacan notice much activity in the garden of Coyoacan Cultural Forum, mounted large-format photographs, I put some small signs with explanatory notes, and Gustavo Casasola Salamanca who runs the operation.

In the atrium of San Juan Bautista are two large screens with holes for the head, one of which printed a photograph of Jerónimo Hernández "La Adelita".

Sunday 21, armed with the camera back to the photo exhibition in the garden Hidalgo in the temple the day before Marcelo Ebrard will use a music festival takes place, as usual people happily cover the entire area to decorate the structures the props aside Adelita, the other Emiliano Zapata.




are lining up to pose as the heroine of the revolution, a small rail car can take a picture, accompanied by Pancho Villa or shoes, all sponsored by the delegation of Coyoacan and the culture Casasola AC

To finish the tour came to the Paris street number 35, Casasola Mexico, showroom. What was my surprise to run into again with Don Gustavo Casasola Salamanca golden opportunity.

Friendly staff willing to talk, after introducing inquiero on how to view the file Gustavo Casasola and what are the differences with the file Pachuca, of these questions came up a little conversation.

I want to know if they have material of Hugo Brehme, unfortunately have nothing, HJ Gutiérrez itself.

The file was formed particularly by Gustavo Casasola, and was not part of the file of his father Agustin Victor Casasola. Some of it is result of donations, when released Graphic History of the Mexican Revolution a side effect was the desire of many people being portrayed in a book, and I did get photos with that intention, in the same way the work of Gustavo Casasola as preserver of a rich photographic heritage, enabling the delivery of material in a disinterested manner.

Why there is no biography of Augustine V. Casasola? Don Gustavo Casasola

Salamanca replies in fact I have it written .

And by the time the book leaves no doubt be very interesting to read ...

There has been no money to publish , one might think to get sponsors for the biography of Augustine V. Casasola not an issue, but something went wrong.

congratulated Mr. Casasola to give credit to the photographers for the exhibition of Coyoacan Cultural Forum, and he nodded

We have never said that everything is the result of work of my grandfather ... We always knew that photography Adelita is Jerónimo Hernández; Jerome was a good friend of the family. As he left the picture and turned to the bureaucracy when there were problems with the government went to Jerome, including as an official sign on my birth certificate. On one occasion a family of Jerome after his death accused us of stealing his file, that's not true.




Hopefully soon you can edit the biography of the Casasola which promises to be full of anecdotes, data and documents, justice for all and not by the law of the pendulum is wrongly punished. Other Casasola

are another story ... in Loreto Square and sponsored Telcel is mounted by another exhibition, this corresponds to Bazar Casasola. It follows a theme with the dumbbell Casasola-Brehme. No authorship recognition of Casasola and Brehme.

Kates Playground Pool Set

Happy Birthday. Proofreading

.
On 8 November, celebrated the 122 birthday of Aurelio Escobar Castellanos, an event that for a few days apart tribute coincides with the exhibition mounted in his honor.

For those who could not be present at the event still have the opportunity to visit the exhibition, open until February 4, 2011, at the premises of the Archivo General de la Nacion, David Alfaro Siqueiros room.

For lovers of photography and who are in Mexico City, is a must, although a small sample, it focuses on a format rarely seen, especially in an exhibition.

The central part consists of eleven large-format panoramic photographs, this is not expansion but contact prints, this means that the photographs show the actual size of the negative, turn to other sections where you see different aspects of professional life as a student, as a photojournalist during the Mexican Revolution Studio photographer, etc.


The Aurelio Escobar Castellanos photographic archive from the past day 4 officially part of National Heritage, under guard of AGN, in substantial part consists of 3350 panoramic negative, the entire file comprises 4446 pieces, with the richest collection of its kind in Mexico and among the most important worldwide.

The official ceremony was passed adopting the acquis, and the Director of AGN, Aurora Gómez Galvarriato Freer made the announcement of the upcoming start of the process of digitizing the entire collection, invaluable tool for the difficult managing negative for investigators approach the material as well as for preservation and dissemination.

Photographs taken between 1923 and 1978, do not understand all the work done by Aurelio Escobar Castellanos in that format, it is known that through the years is subtracted from your file material improperly, with the possibility that future be able to return, appealing to the goodwill of those who have it today.

Among the material that "no" is in the AGN, it is understood that performed for the CIF, "Photographic Industrial Company" in the first part of the 1920's. So as most of the photographs generation by "A. Escobar Photo ", and" Panoramic Photo Escobar, of the faculties of Law, Medicine, Engineering, etc., UNAM, among other things.

November 20, 1952, Inauguration of University City, A. Escobar September 16, 1964 Mexico City in the reestablishment of the National Univercidad September 1910, Aurelio Escobar was also present. (The image can be enlarged with good resolution).

has to wonder material is acknowledged as recently as 1978, it is known Aurelio Escobar's death in 1964. On the death of Don Aurelio, his widow Maria del Consuelo Vélez de la Torre, J. Heliodoro niece Gutierrez, held the reins of the business, where he had attended since 1933, remaining as head photographer Enrique Escobar Castellanos, who had served as assistant Aurelio Escobar Castellanos from 1910. The working life of Aurelio Escobar was long-lived, from 1906 to 1964, 58, his brother was no less. Similarly

not surprising to find signed widescreen material like "HJ Gutiérrez", "marst" or "Paris" commercial firms operated by Heliodorus where Aurelio Escobar Juan Gutierrez works extensively, or under other names who made them work so special. Panorama shooting Escobar worked for the brothers, almost had the character of monopoly for many years, allowing very little participation of other actors, it shows not only the volume of production, so is the fact that they come to possess 4 Cirkut Kodak photographic equipment.

Anezeh Islam and at the pyramid of the sun. October 10-1925. Marst photo. May 5, 1961 Mexico. (The image can be enlarged with good resolution). The story begins in the year 1907 when a group of Shriners established in Mexico City received a letter patent the AAOMS to work in the territory of Mexico. Shriner's first record was José de la Cruz Porfirio Díaz Mori, who served as a public servant with a maximum charge of being the President of the United Mexican States.

documentary richness of the file, not only surprise to scholars and historians of photography, but also countless people to recognize their relatives and embodied in the images ...

"ESTAMPA NAPOLITANA" Part 3.

Tomassino Esposito walked past the "Stazione Circumvesuviana, that to the trains that arrived came from the Amalfi Coast where he lived. Then came the vast Piazza Garibaldi "and then took the" Via A. Poerio "and then lost in the maze of alleys near the "Duomo" cathedral, or do some shopping of fresh produce for lunch and dinner to be prepared. The shy rivulets that ran through the streets still were paladins are indications that it had rained heavily during the night, but they evaporate quickly, because although it is still an early hour, the sun began to warm and increase in brightness as you go morning, it was already ready to get the heat wave.

He stopped at the "Via dei Tribunali" - means that it occupied with the original route of the "Decumanus Maximus Roman - with the" Pescheria La Sirena " Angelina run by his friend, and bought several small octopus, which were kept alive in enameled iron buckets full of sea water in order to maintain freshness and quality. It also acquired vegetables, some vegetables, salami and Parma ham in the shop another friend, Gianni Moscati, he spoke animatedly with for about few minutes. He loaded the goods in the basket of the bicycle and a couple of large bags of fabric hanging had to take both sides of the handlebar. Fortunately

not too bothered, for it was not far to reach your destination. Cycled for the "Via del Duomo" north to cross the "Via Luigi Setembrini" and stood, swift and swift as an arrow under the "Porta San Gennaro." This was the oldest of the gates of the city, mentioned already in hoary annals of the year 928, when was the single point of access to the Greco-Roman wall from the north. Over time, having lost the original Barbican, the door had changed his appearance through numerous reforms and was therefore an arch that crowned the street that once led to the catacombs of the holy miracle pattern of the city, whose blood contained in two blisters treasured in the cathedral chapel, liquefies twice a year and not do it, heralded the arrival of calamitous events. The arcade now mediated between two buildings facing each other, like a bridge between the two in question. A rectangular niche, focusing on the key bow, containing a fresco depicting San Genaro knees before the majesty of Christ.

the bottom of the "Porta San Gennaro, the left, under a canopy of faded ancient russet stripes alternating with yellowish-white, stood the" di Vicenzo and Luciano Pizzeria, "a modest but immaculate local meals. It was here serving as grand master Tomassino undisputed that inner sanctum that was his kitchen.

one of the peeling walls of the building and smelled the aroma pituitary Marseille soap emanating from the pristine sheets hanging everywhere, suspended from one party to another alley, buffeted by the breeze and kissed by the sun, that fore was showing its snowy splendor. He entered the pizza loaded with bags and packages, and your boss Luciano, who was already inside, putting the finishing touches to open to the public, greeted him politely.

- Tomassino Hello, good day! Did you bring everything?

- Hi, Don Luciano - turn Tomassino greeted, "Good day! Yes, I believe that nothing is missing. We a good menu, Don Mario will be delighted, as always.

- Yes, yes, as always, as always. - Answered his boss with a smile on his lips as he dusted a bottle of chianti.

Luciano Di Stefano had inherited the business his father Vincenzo was founded in 1910, and which also dealt Vicenzo the kitchen, but after his death, and given that he was not equipped to be holders of such office , took his service Tomassino express recommendation of Don Mario Pagano.

Tomassino left everything in the store, hung his frayed corduroy jacket and black hat and put on a jacket and a chef's hat and impeccably starched white. I enter the kitchen, where his two assistants, Gaetano and Michele, I waited and conveyed a jovial greeting.

- Hey, how's it going? Are you ready to face the day?

- Yes, - they replied in unison - what you say, boss.

Gaetano Parisi was a young gawky, lanky and gaunt face dominated by a huge hooked nose, but obedient and willing to work. Michele was also a boy Schialfa industrious and helpful, but, unlike Gaetano, was of a strong and well built, with broad shoulders and proportionate as were his features, virile and beautiful: the black eyes, large and almond-shaped mouth of firm strokes, thick-lipped well delineated. For he longed for love the women in half the neighborhood.

morning passed between hilarious jokes as usual between Tomassino and pinches, fresh pasta, pizza dough, tomato sauce, pesto, cooking vegetables and pulses for minestrina, preparing to serve the pulpits antipasto, sliced \u200b\u200bthe "prosciutto" or ham and salami for incorporation into the various dishes.

And it was time for lunch and customers crowded the dining room and even the spacious terrace which was located off the open doorways of the restaurant and kitchen. Luciano, the owner, ran frantically from one side to another assisted by his wife Claudia and their daughter Silvana, who had come down to that end, the apartment they occupied on the first floor of the building, and the three could not keep up to serve tables. Sometimes Tomassino who was himself, walking out the kitchen door, which opened directly onto the street and two leaves which were always open showing the inside of it, officiating occasional waiter carrying a delicious pizza or a bowl of steaming pasta .

Scorpio In November 10th

.

.
Mayra Mendoza and Jose Antonio Rodriguez of the editorial board of the journal Alquimia, kindly invited me to participate in the May-August 2010, "Revolution and image," deference to thank.


I had to write a bit about Heliodorus Juan Gutierrez Escobar, in the article entitled: "HJ Gutiérrez, Photos." As I said before I am not an academic historian, which does not mean lack of professionalism, but a particular approach to the issues that have been dubbed the "detective" and a form of expression without formalities or mental structures created by years of academic training, I have been told I'm too personal, and texts need an approach impersonal ...

How much of this is good or bad, or who is right is not important, I humbly submitted to the correction. I guess the correct style is the function of creating a speech rather homogenous in its form of writing, give clarity, while maintaining the essence of the content. Like anybody, I suddenly wrong and I have drafted poorly or misspellings.

Well, I put to it the edited version of the Alchemy Journal, and the original version that I provided, in some cases may be other shades ... are honest mistakes.

Alchemy:

"Along with the sound of guns, most of the Mexicans made their living. Those were the days of 1910, and shouting "Viva Madero!" Is disrupted the idyllic happening of Mexico Porfirio Diaz. "

A. Guevara:

"Along with the sound of the guns, the majority of Mexicans made their lives ... Those were the years of 1910 and the cry of" Viva Madero, the events are disrupted the idyllic Mexico Porfirio Diaz. "

When I compose," were the years of 1910, "I mean the 1910's, every year, 1900, 1901, 1902, 1903, etc. While "Those were the days of 1910" means: it was the year of 1910, only that año.Cuando express "the idyllic Mexico Porfirio Diaz, the idea lies in the idyllic Mexico porfirismo created by the pair of real world, while" the idyllic happening of Mexico Porfirio Diaz, "implies that all the Mexico of Porfirio Diaz was idyllic.

Alchemy:

"Heliodorus arrived in Mexico with camera in hand, no other ambition than to live in neighboring northern country with new ideas in mind."

A. Guevara:

"Heliodorus arrived in Mexico with camera in hand, with no ambition to live in the neighboring country to the north, and new ideas in mind."

with new ideas and new ideas, does not make much difference, with camera in hand or camera in hand, both expressions are validated, but as I expressed, "with no ambition to live in the neighboring country to the north," I say: "I do not want to return to live Heliodoro United States," while the spell says, "Heliodorus only has the ambition to return to live in the United States, an idea completely in the opposite direction.


Alchemy:

"Apparently Heliodoro a year later opened another business, number 204, New Mexico," The Postal Photo Finishing ", where the name makes us understand a major in the postcards, the production and marketing living their best days in Mexico and the world, being a lucrative option."

A. Guevara:

"It seems a year later opened another business, number 204, New Mexico," The Postal Photo Finishing ", whose name we would suggest a specialization in the postcards. By the way the business of postcards lived its best days, in Mexico and the world, being a lucrative option. "

Again there is a change in the essence, I say, as Heliodorus opened a business called: "The Postal Photo Finishing" while Mexico and the world live the rise of the postcards, therefore a lucrative option.

The Alchemy spell on the other hand says, the production and marketing of the postcards of The Postal Photo Finishing "living their best days in Mexico and the world ...

As I will not detail point by point all the nuances of writing, better get to it by the original text.
