Roa

La historia sucede en Bogotá en los días previos al 9 de abril de 1948. Roa es el clásico agüerista que lo deja todo a la suerte, un pobre diablo sin oficio estable pero con una familia que alimentar. Cansado de buscar trabajo y convencido que ha nacido para cosas grandes, visita a su ídolo Eliecer Gaitán para pedirle trabajo.

Roa

Tired of looking for work and convinced that he was born for big things, he visits his idol Eliecer Gaitan to ask for work.

Nela Garzon Art Exhibition @ Institute of Hispanic Culture of Houston

Tickets

Nov 2 2020 – Jan 3 2021 all-day

Made in China

Through three different artistic disciplines, such as fiber art, sculpture and painting, Nela Garzón questions the mercantile and disposable paradigm of objects in conflict with cultural identities.

“The body of work produced for this project inquires about the wide effects of consumerism and mass production and comments on the loss of cultural identity in the hands of globalization and industrialization. This global problem supported by us (consumers), besides devastating the environment, affects everyone but mostly minorities who have been maintaining the cultural heritage and diversity of the world alive.”
