The first prize was awarded to an "INTERPRETING A FRIDA" GABRIEL CASTILLO artist. An elaborate dress made with sheets of newspaper sponsoring the show. Manufacturing by a skilled seamstress in the neighborhood of the artist, who also engages the community by inviting girls to pose with the suit, which leaves photographic record and used some of these images for installation in space dress exhibition.
The style of sewing, reading that is sought from Frida, the relationship between tradition and modernity, the question of gender, the use of "newspaper" as a construction material, and involve the community daily existential artist, make "I play FRIDA" a work full of crosses and full of intelligence and humor that displays the artist in all his works.
Second prize was awarded to the work "MAPPING REGIONAL FIGHT BRAHIM artist. A two-dimensional work made with the humble resources of fine arts (collage, painting white and graphite) as a strategy of resistance; a reaffirmation of the artist in his bid in recent years to strengthen "Painting" as a valid vehicle in the current Art. Here is also used "newspaper" as a construction material and impeccably see added to the material, which gives an excellent finish to the piece of art. These are solely Judicial leaves the page, those that recorded the tragic reality of the region, which usually presents the human misery of various actors.
The artist applies layers of white paint breaking headlines and text, while retaining the original reading of these by the viewer, the same it affects decontextualized images to both the edges and content, then working up-and-pencil and reconfigure a new image, which range, which merge with the background in some areas and in others it appears as foreground , achieving a total integration of the image. An exercise in disappearance of the image and its recurrence, through its very own altered. A disturbing work for those who dwell within our "regional mapping."
The third prize went to the play "WOMEN ONLY" by the artist DIANA VILLAMIZAR ALBORNOZ. A facility where we appreciate, joined to the wall, a print extension of the usual page "classified" that appears daily inside the copies of "La Opinion, which is a highlighted, with a red circular gesture, a specific ad. This will provide escort services and sexual attention "FOR WOMEN ONLY." Advertisement that was placed by the artist after several failed attempts in which was rejected by the administration of the newspaper, because by their own political ads do not reproduce sexually explicit court. This together with a phone that rests on a pillow placed on a black, positioning apparatus to the height necessary for the viewer to take and listen to the recording, where several male voices are offering, one by one, its services and exposing their unique qualities and physical attributes for the selection by the user. It is gratifying to find art pieces that confront the viewer with the realities and relationships of these with everyone.
This is not a provocative piece is a work located in the exhibition space, brings to an unusual context and audience, something which, though it comes from public-the same physical newspaper, ends lead to development within the private, as is the contact and the recruitment of such services. But more significant is the approach claim of gender as the sex trade.
A color distance with the use of black and white and all shades of gray in both techniques (photo-printing-white paint and graphite) and the elements and objects (telephone equipment), as well as the newspaper is something we have in common three winning works, which without doubt were the best pieces that were presented at the Hall.
With regard to the novice artists who broke with force in the art scene in this room under "THE OPINION 50 YEARS", this will be the subject of this article.
