Humanos se escribe con heces
This work is about all the damage humans create to the world, nature like plants, animals, rocks,even humans ourselves...
it is conformated by the universe, and the earth as a part of it.
the elements of earth, animals, plants, humans, material things, dreams, thoughts.
And the combination of all of them to form like an art conclusion.
This work is made by:
Ayla Isabel Figueroa
Gisselle Rivera Romo
Sandra Espino Mendoza
Ana Cristina Muñoz
Miren Paola Flores
Omar Torres
This work is an sculpture, and is made with paper, glitters, paint, glue, foami, polystyrene, thread, etc.
At first, we had the idea of making a fish tank, after of doing whatever, but at the end we decide to make consciousness of the acts of humanity.

Ideas are the beginning of a DREAM :)
Every single person, not just an artist, have ideas, dreams, ideals, but only an artist is capable of doing art with all that feelings, thoughts and expressions!
An artist is a person whose creative work shows sensibility and imagination. But, How? Well, I’m the kind of person who thinks that everything you do have to have “heart” or like to put all your illusions in it, that is going to give the especial touch, the “extra” to whatever.
Then, an artist have first to have an idea, or not necessary an idea, just see, live or imagine something that inspires them to paint, sculpt, draw, write, etc. for example, as I paint, when I’m in a park, for example, and I see a little girl with an ice cream and her mom walking with their dog, maybe it inspires me to create something as I see love between them or I don’t know, the laugh of the girl, the barking of the dog, smell of the perfume of the mother, the imaginary flavor of the ice cream…anything can be a particle of inspiration.
The emotions are a huge influence when making a work, for example, the tone of the color depends a lot in the mud you are in that moment, if you’re happy the blue probably would be brighter like a sky blue or an indigo, and if you’re sad or angry it would probably be like a navy blue or a cobalt one; same as the expressions or the shapes of what you are drawing or sculpting, etc.
That’s why when you see a work of art you feel different emotions, like sadness, happiness, etc.

Armando Mafud/ Mexican designers
En los pasillos del Museo de Louvre, se pueden apreciar muchas de las grandes obras que ha generado la humanidad. Entre la Venus de Milo y la Mona Lisa, aquel museo francés alberga más de 35 mil piezas, algunas que datan desde el siglo VI antes de Cristo. A principios de 2008, dicho museo tuvo en exhibición las obras de arte de Armando Mafud, sus diseños de moda.
Originario de Salina Cruz, Oaxaca, Mafud no siempre tuvo en mente una carrera en la industria de la moda. A pesar de esto, el ser nativo de Oaxaca hizo que su infancia estuviera llena de los colores que existen en mercados y pueblos de ese estado. Colores que se encuentran en sus diseños hoy en día.
Mafud estudió odontología, carrera que terminó y ejerció algún tiempo. Mientras estudiaba, fue víctima del eterno problema de todo universitario; no tener dinero. Fue gracias a este inconveniente económico que empezó a explorar la industria en la cual ahora se desenvuelve. Junto con parientes, comenzó a fabricar accesorios de mujeres como aretes y pulseras.
Recuerda los primeros años de su trabajo en moda —hace ya unos 30 años. Decidió dejar odontología y continuar con su otra ambición, diseño de modas. En la primera presentación de su trabajo ante un almacén líder de moda —del cual deliberadamente omite el nombre— sus piezas fueron rechazadas. En ese momento, se puso a estudiar.
Mafud recuerda el México tan distinto de aquellos tiempos. Con las fronteras cerradas a productos extranjeros —incluyendo revistas— estudió moda como pudo. Leyendo ediciones viejas de la revista de moda Vogue, que conseguía por conocidos. En su segunda presentación, el mismo almacén de moda aceptó todas sus piezas.
Aunque originalmente enfocado en accesorios. Hoy en día tienen gran fama sus vestidos. Dice que se hace valer del folclor mexicano, aunque aclara que propiamente él no hace folclor.
Hijo de inmigrantes serbios, Mafud encuentra en su arte una manera de transmitir la cultura mexicana al mundo. Al respecto, sus diseños se han expuesto en lugares como Medellín, Praga y Nueva York. A pesar de esto, señala que su mayor orgullo es ser el único diseñador en haber expuesto su obra en el escenario principal del Palacio de Bellas Artes.
“Se necesita tener estilo para llevar mi ropa” comenta. Dice que sus vestidos no son simples vestiditos negros. Llevan diseños pronunciados, es “ropa fuerte”. Entre su lista de clientas, señala a señoras de sociedad e integrantes del cuerpo diplomático mexicano. Elegantemente omite mencionar nombres, puesto que dice que no es propio.
Se encuentra en Guadalajara y participará en los festejos del aniversario 467 de la ciudad. El día de hoy, a las 20:30 horas, presentará sus piezas en el festival Guadalajara Fashion Night que se llevará a cabo en avenida Vallarta a la altura de los Arcos.
Algunos dentistas formados en la ciudad de México resultan ser un tanto inquietos, Hugo Sánchez militó en el Real Madrid durante los ochenta. Armando Mafud expone sus vestidos a lado de casas de moda de la talla de Christian Dior y Givenchy.
Es uno de los diseñadores mexicanos más reconocidos a nivel mundial.
Sus creaciones han viajado a las pasarelas más importantes del mundo. En Francia ha participado en shows junto a maestros de la moda como Christian Dior, Ungaro, Delacroix y Mauricio Galante.
"Trato de transmitir la cultura de mi país a través de la ropa. Las raíces de mi país, todo lo que es el arte mexicano trato de transmitirlo". afirmó el diseñador.

Renoir
Pierre-Auguste Renoir was born in Limoges on February 25, 1841. His father was a modest craftsman who moved with his family to Paris in 1845, when Renoir was four years old.In Paris the family get installed in a house located in the enclosure of the Louvre. His parents hesitated between orientating the education of his fourth son towards the painting or music.Finally, he inclined towards the option of "artist", this time in the version of the drawing applied to the industry of the porcelain, speciality of Limoges.
It joins at 13 years old as apprentice of a workshop of painting porcelain, with the hope to enter some day Sèvres's famous Manufacture.His labor consisted of adorning with sprigs of flowers pieces of white bottom, then, once again freely in his trade, it changed the flowers into the figures. It was there where Renoir would learn to do with flexible, round and sharp paintbrushes, and with fluid colors.
All his life would preserve the habit of cashing in of the limpidity of a color that stops to reveal the bottom.
During the day of work he had a rest which our protagonist was useful to go to the Louvre to copy ancient fabrics.n one of this playtime, Renoir discovered the Source of the Innocent ones, of Jean Goujon, and with her, his fascination for the sculptural plastic arts at the age of 14 years. These attractions would mark his work: the plastic sculpture of the feminine body and that of the limpid colors that act for transparency.
Renoir enters with 21 years, in Gleyre's workshop to learn painting. In autumn, while it expires a period of military service, Bazille, Monet and Sisley came to Charles Gleyre's workshop.
In the following years, a friendship arises with Cézanne, Pissarro and Guillaumin, pupils of the study Suisse. Renoir presented his work for the first time to the Lounge of 1864, and was admitted: Emerald, dancing with his goat.
In the summer of 1865 the Lounge accepted again Renoir's sending, but the following year the juror gave a much less favorable verdict.The juror rejected Renoir's Reveille, though in three following years it managed to place his pictures.
Renoir's small successes, didn't save him from the material escases. His friend Bazille gave him housing in his study, and together they painted postcards to gain something of money.
The years later to the lost war francoprusiana were surprisingly of a great economic prosperity in France.The prices of the paintings increased, and up to in some cases impressionistic paintings were sold by unexpectedly high sums of money.Paul Durand-Ruel received the painters rejected by the official critique, in spite of that it should have waited to the future to obtain benefits.In 1870 it had known in London Pissarro and Monet and also it had discovered in 1873 Renoir.
in the year 1873, Durand-Ruel felt obliged to restrict the help that was giving the painters. These formed a " Société anonyme coopérative ", and on April 15, 1874, in the places newly removed from the photographer Nadar, opened his own exhibition.
The new school already had in traffic his impresionists' motto.
In April, 1876 the impresionists exhibited together for the second time, in this occasion in Durand-Ruel's gallery, but the critique was not favorable either.
In April of the following year, they exhibited for third time, but once again the critics of the most important newspapers joked and nobody bought.
Renoir was detesting the anarchism of some painters as Jean François and Armand Guillaumin, and neither he was sharing Pissarro's socialist ideas.
The 30 last years of Renoir's life were darkened by the bitterness of a serious disease and for the destination of all the artists who age: of having to see how his art was checked and overcome by the generation who was coming pushing.
It worked at the end of the 80's several times with Cézanne and with Berthe Morisot, up to the death of this one in 1895.
He don't only presented his pictures in 1896 and 1899 in exhibitions organized by Durand-Ruel,In 1904 in the Autumn lounge and in 1913 in the gallery Bernheim of Paris,But it was also in the Centennale, the sample of French art of the 19th century in the universal exhibition of Paris of 1900 and it received the cross of Honor's Legion.Pierre-Auguste Renoir died on December 3, 1919.
