Joys and sorrows of the small bookcase – HOME

A reader yesterday at the bookstore La Central, in Madrid. / Samuel Sánchez

The celebration yesterday the fourth edition of Day Bookstores could not hide an insistent reality: present and future concern of small bookcase. For the fourth year, and driven by the Spanish Confederation of Booksellers’ Associations (CEGAL), small and medium businesses mounted their local festivals, lectures and cultural events, and remained open until ten at night. But while this celebration took place reenacted by mouth CEGAL itself, the fateful fact: 21% of bookstores closed their doors in Spain in the last five years

According to the National Statistics Institute. (INE), in Spain last year had 5,556 libraries, not counting large chains and shopping centers. According to the barometer Sales CEGAL the past two years, the sector had an annual turnover in Spain of 700 million euros and a turnover of about 45 million books a year. The latest data barometer for the second quarter of 2014 show a decline of 7.4% in the sale of books. It is a smaller decline than that recorded between the same periods of 2013 and 2012 (9.4%). But one thing remains heartbreaking. Between 2007 and 2014, the annual turnover of bookselling in Spain has increased from 3.123 million to 2.181

In this context, expert voices predict that small libraries whose acometan the necessary process of modernization or diversify their business (sale of objects outside the book, introduction of new models of cafés and bookshop …) will die a slow death. No lack certain fatalistic logic in this, for a country whose reading rates are far from the European average, and where institutional campaigns promoting reading have proved ineffective time ago.

The Instituto Valenciano de Arte Moderno (IVAM) is already warned. The sculptor Miquel Navarro withdraw the donation made to the museum in 2004, consisting of more than five hundred pieces and valued at 19 million euros, in case an agreement on the Governing Board of the agency scheduled for today is not reached and in which will address the controversial decision by its director, José Miguel G. Cortés, removing the permanent room dedicated to the sculptor.

A notary Valencia delivered Monday direction Minutes of formal museum in explaining the position of the artist. In it, Navarro details if the resolution adopted at the time with the museum and endorsed by the Governing Body in 2011 agreed to install the room without expanding the Julio González Centre shall by broken the pact signed for donation is violated. Also it will if any decision would be made unilaterally.

Also, he notes that the agreement included the publication of a catalog raisonné of his work and the question paper if it is to meet and when, so it reserves the right to accept compliance with the donation.

new owner of the IVAM argued to justify its decision to withdraw the permanent room dedicated to Miquel Navarro in the contract signed at the time by the direction of IVAM with artist stipulated in a clause that the creator would have a permanent room once expanded the museum.

However, not only the delay of enlargement but above all the doubts that this occurs in the short or medium term “the project was abandoned in the middle of the last decade” led to the former address of the museum to close a deal with the artist and advance the assembly hall . The agreement was ratified by the Governing Council in 2011. The hall opened its doors in September 2013 and the idea of ​​Cortés its removal was not addressed during the meeting that the Governing Body held last week in which Cortés unveiled its exhibition schedule.

While presented did not disclose any appearance around the uprising of the room, nor included in the museum project presented to win the open contest for the election of the new director of autonomous institute .

Miquel Navarro, the political party. / JOSE JORDAN – THE COUNTRY

Miquel Navarro, the political party. / JOSE JORDAN

The Valencian sculptor Miquel Navarro (Mislata, 1944) is an artist with a long and proven track record. Their totemic and monumental urban works populate many Spanish cities and are part of prestigious museums. It is also a prophet in his own land. Both the Valencian Institute of Modern Art (IVAM) dedicates since September 2013 his best and most colorful room gives onto the street, his sculptures.

This decision, questionable and unusual for its permanent and for being a living artist, was adopted by the former director of the IVAM, Consuelo Ciscar, and is now the source of intense controversy rooted in the use of the museum, the independence of its management, dealing with artists and political interference. The controversy has been generated just when the museum with one of the most important collections of modern and contemporary art in Spain, tries to turn the page of a very turbulent stage by choosing three months of a new director by public competition does.

Indeed, it was the new head of the IVAM, José Miguel G. Cortés, who unleashed the events when he presented last week programming that is intended to give a more internationalist and rigorous twist to the museum. It suppresses the inherited exhibits that were not signed and permanent gallery dedicated to Miquel Navarro. The artist, who was warned hours earlier by the director of his intentions, broke and said he felt “humiliated”. Cortes replied that he respected but that “there are many more Valencian artists that deserve attention and dedication.”

Navarro announced its intention to consider bringing an action for breach of contract signed in December 2004 which provides for the acquisition by the museum two facilities artist by 555,000 and 647,000 euros and donating the IVAM of more than 500 pieces of the creator. Navarro has not accomplished its threat awaiting the results of the mediation of the Minister of Culture, José María Català, PP, which today has convened a meeting of the governing council to find an agreed solution. This involves giving in another room or even the artist from the current, according to department sources. “It’s a matter of bringing the positions and both sides are predisposed to consensus and dialogue,” he said yesterday Català.

An object of discussion is the interpretation of a clause in the contract that binds donation to these ‘works are exhibited in the headquarters of IVAM permanently once the redevelopment of the IVAM (…) are made “.

Cortés understood that the absence expansion (the project of Japanese Sanaa is parked sine die ) should not maintain permanent room. National Prize of Plastic Arts 1986, Navarro, who does not hide his friendship with Ciscar, argues that the expansion is not feasible today and why his room opened in 2013 with the approval of the governing council to fulfill the contract.

In fact, the crisis and the limited budget of the museum influenced the determination to anticipate the opening of the permanent room, which thereby no longer had to be programmed. Carrying there, as it was thought, the valuable collection of the sculptor of the avant Julio González, a treasure of IVAM, carried a high cost for their necessary role play.

The Valencian associations of visual artists and critics defended yesterday Cortés independence to make decisions, lamented the political interference and blamed the situation Ciscar. He was also very critical of the failure of the autonomy of the museum Ester Alba, professor of art history and only member of the governing council of the IVAM plays no political office, together with the architect José María Lozano, Ciscar trusted person. Other artists such as José Sanleón have been really Navarro and creators as Uiso Alemany, who has also deleted it and submit a sample demand.

The first director of the IVAM, Tomas Llorens, believes that Cortés was “little respect for one of the two or three most important Valencian artists living”, while acknowledging debatable to dedicate a permanent room.

Cortés insists that there is a question of ways been reproached him: “If anyone was upset, I have no problem apologizing. But the issue under discussion is the autonomy of the museum. ” The director said he does not enter his “idea museum’s ability to maintain permanent room as is” and said he hoped the minister’s proposals.

Every day, Villaseñor and Acuña were dressed as medieval knights, with helmets, shields, coats, uprights and daggers, and Escudero and Sánchez Duque believe that Miguel de Cervantes could know these facts-and that Villaseñor were his friends and parodied his novel a story and real character.

“We found that Acuña tried to kill Villaseñor dressed gentleman, with all the medieval aparataje, and we realized that the story of Don Quixote is not invented, is real is what made the enemies of the Villaseñor against they. Unbelievable but true, is documented, “Escudero says emphatically.

Before that date is documented in 1573 attempted murder of another Villaseñor Diego in El Toboso and here appears a third character, Rodrigo Quijada , who was indicted this year and whose life was, at least, controversial. In his surname Quijada, could add Cervantes a pejorative suffix that led Quijote.

“We are still in the preliminary stage and may appear much more, but what seems clear is that Don Quixote is dedicated to mock those enemies of Villaseñor that possibly also be enemies of Cervantes Cervantes or those considered enemies, “he added.

Thus have arrived the ruler Rodrigo Quijada, who have found half a dozen documents, none of which portrays him as a “good” man, because it was “a very controversial figure who was frowned upon in all the villages in the area,” and that, according to his biography, abuse that is given in the novel Don Quixote deserved.

All these characters also come together in a geographic area, along with Cervantes. The two researchers sense that their studies will bring controversy, but advance that they will continue working to prove if, for example, Rodrigo Cervantes Quijada was enemy or his friends Villaseñor “and deserved to be mocked him in the novel”.

In this regard, consider investigate the Villaseñor, Acuña, Quijada and other nobles of the area is “a good line of research because it is the broth drinking Cervantes” and that can respond to the Asked why Cervantes novel dedicated to a city that was not hers and about certain characters.

Auctioned watercolor painted by Hitler at 130,000 euros – The Universal

A watercolor painted by Adolf Hitler was auctioned in Nuremberg (southern Germany) for 130,000 euros, today reported the auction house Weidler.
 


 Watercolor, 28 by 24 inches, was acquired by an anonymous buyer, probably from the Middle East.
 


 


 The high price, which surprised the auction house may be related to the fact that the original bill of 1916 is preserved when the picture was taken at a gallery in Munich.
 


 


 The buyer then was the grandfather of two sisters who are now about seventy years and watercolor delivered to the auction house.
 


 


 Trading Hitler paintings is only banned in Germany in cases where the works Nazi symbols appear.
 


 


 Hitler, before beginning his political career, tried his luck as a painter without greater fortune. Both in Germany and abroad there are collectors who buy works of Hitler.

Andres Rabago Garcia (Madrid, 1947)

cartoonist, cartoonist, writer, designer and painter. Self-taught, in 1968 began publishing cartoons and illustrations for magazines such as Brother Wolf, though he continued to work later in numerous print media such as The Estafeta Literary, The Quail, Triumph Notebooks for Dialogue, The Independent or Ajoblanco. In 1978 he began his collaboration with magazines adult comics like Totem, Thursday, The Crow or Madriz and continued to publish in print media as Journal 16, Change 16, Time, El Periódico de Catalunya, Information, Town or The Leaf on Monday. Currently published in the newspaper El Pais. Among his many awards was the National Illustration, achieved in 2012

 JESUS ​​JIMENEZ JESUS ​​JIMENEZ

García Andrés Rabago , also known as “El Roto” leads being one of the best analysts of today through their daily cartoons several years the newspaper Country , for which it makes an annual gathering. After Bullets for a crisis, shrimp that falls asleep (takes the current view ) and To each his own reaches its new, and essential, compilation: The Green Book (Reservoir Books), in which he expresses concern about environmental degradation and presented in a suitable place, the Botanical Garden of Madrid.

“In the book r eflejo loss of sense of the sacred, of life, of nature , and only seems to make economic sense and it assures their degradation is inevitable. We use only to benefit the world , no matter who we trade with Life. And we should preserve that wealth at all costs. “

” To have a clean environment, the first thing is that our minds are clean , because contamination of those minds is what occurs outside contamination, which is what I outline in this book. And it can also be seen in the picture on the cover, a spring flowing into the mind of a man who symbolizes the relationship between man and nature and how our behavior, You can help protect or harm the environment . “

” The Bible threatens us with the Flood, but we, the human species, are the Flood . “

We must be aware of the problem

” To avoid the degradation of the planet continues The rotors the first and most important is aware of the situation , because it seems that we are asleep or pending things like phones. We spend our lives typing games and other things while we miss what is around us, what is happening in the world. We must be aware of truth, where we are and where we want to be We are unaware of what the artificiality of our lives today, technology is based “

.” – Andres says. If they really are the roots of life . It seems to suffer a collective hypnosis preventing us see nature in its immensity and beauty . “

“Sometimes we complain about the degradation of the world but does not do anything to change . And it is a mistake because, as I said, we create the reality around us, We are co-authors and makers of that reality . And we have to start reacting. “

The Broken confesses that” I really care about water , which I dedicate many vignettes in this book. I even rode an exhibition in Zaragoza. For example, I love to watch the fish and were previously in any river. But now have almost disappeared from our rivers and seems nobody cares . And it seems to me a subject of infinite gravity . As the issue of the possible privatization of Canal de Isabel II. I’ve been to a demonstration against and there were eighty people. How is that possible? “.

” I also fixed in trees Madrid he continues, and I found that all have tumors , less bananas. Not sure why will be possibly by poor logging, but am sorry to see them. “

Poet reflective mood

The Broken, which I could almost be defined as the poet of humor reflective, comes back to show your mastery to reflect the world we rode with irony and, above all, to make us think, “I’m trying to have the drawings plastic richness and various readings, that are poetry and art , apart from the satirical and reflective component. “

” Plus continues Andres The Green Book intended to be a book of Santos, images that enrich the message and at the same time having a quality, which I consider my brand plasticity. So they are not a perishable but have permanence beyond today

But environmental pollution is not the only thing that worries Roto.” Also information pollution difficult something as important as the ability to think . The information is selected, something fundamental they should handle the media and what we have failed. We do not convey much information are able to maintain their credibility as tools for understanding reality

Internet also convinces him:”… The new media have no credibility not show documents that remain are not reliable because not consult sources, and information is now online tomorrow may have disappeared without explanation or charge . “

” I do not Worth the cartoon “

” I think the reality is something to interpret -comenta Rábago-, and satire support this interpretation. When the powers that be do not want to understand things create a committee of experts to speak to us of how complicated things are. While satire goes to the essence , presents the synthesis of things to understand them better . And that’s what I try through the combination of image and text. “

” Satire is a conglomeration of elements that reflects the social situation or the facts, it is also a filter that deformed to be lighter . Try to present the obvious. Although it is increasingly difficult in a world that tends to embrollarlo all day. “

I do not care caricature adds the rotors, when I speak of public office drawing people anonymous and even put back. My interest is to reflect what’s behind those politicians, those dark entities introduced into public figures to act through them. “



” I try to escape from the immediate “

As for his drawings, Andrew says: “He has a desire to escape the immediate, of a particular time and closed to reality wider. Also, try drawings have different layers . They are testimonies of an era but also to have a read elsewhere or at other times. “

” What’s usually cost me the vignettes is the idea, then I capture on paper and Most importantly have spontaneity , to breathe. “

” As far as color continues the rotors, I use very little and meaningful detail to highlight some it is not free. Nor do I like new technology, I prefer my drawings have the traditional type of paper and hand . “

” For example, colors digitized are much poorer that the colors made with pastel, watercolor, colored pencils. In a single stroke have more variation than a whole array of computer colors. Sometimes the color to use drawings have more presence “.

Emilio Lledo and his trilogy of prizes – HOME

The philosopher Emilio Lledo, this morning in Madrid. / Samuel Sanchez

Some features reveal philosophers. They are presented with questions. They speak of the ancient Greeks as if it were his gang neighborhood. Distinguish grain (culture) straw (technology). Often, to be free, do not carry mobile. Emilio Lledo (Seville, 1927) won yesterday’s National Prize for Literature for his long literary career as an intellectual and ethical framework, but did not received word from the Ministry of Culture, but in an interview with this newspaper because Lledo, philosopher where they exist, does not mobile, “I have more freedom”

Among overwhelmed and happy, academia took hold of humor. “That means you are so old they’re saying ‘we’re going to fire sympathetically to this man. ” The institutional recognition, which he gratefully accepted it arrived at the headquarters of the Association of Editors of Madrid, which has been awarded this year Antonio de Sancha award for his commitment to culture and literature. And in addition to that collected in November in Mexico, after being awarded the first International Essay Prize Pedro Henríquez Ureña, and that only a month ago, he was awarded in Getafe Black (Jose Luis Sampedro). “I go to the Guinness” joked yesterday in the halls of the association, where he arrived to discuss a prize and where he finished talking about another

Lledo Days of glory, which already has a long string (Alexander Von award Humboldt German Government or National Literature by Silence of writing , among others). Nothing to do with certain setbacks suffered by the thinker in the past ninguneado ‘was in 1987 when he opted to the Chair of Modern and Contemporary Philosophy at the University Complutense- with sad or fifty days preceding his departure for Heidelberg-where skeletal arrived 53 kilos, much less with the intense days of childhood, fluctuating between pleasure (reading) and terror (bombings). “But I was happy in the war because I learned to read. I had a teacher in Vicálvaro made us read a couple of times per week the Don Quixote and then we asked for reading suggestions. Should be taught to read and to love reading. Technology is an aid to the culture, but do not think it has anything to do with education, “said

.

Perhaps because Lledo understands philosophy as “critical consciousness of their time” It goes against some mantras which extend as oil. “Bilingualism in schools makes me a little nervous. No. What is needed are monolingual schools that teach other languages ​​well. ” “Obsessed with youth living is the most terrible way to lose.” “True wealth is culture. It sounds cliche, but true. ” It also says it does not say everything you think “because maybe insulted.” But it’s hard to believe. Lledo is a good-humored wise, that only hardens the look when he is asked about the health of the country. “The dictatorship had hoped that this would change, and we are now in the territory of that hope and often hopeless.”

The Greek philosopher lover returns to claim them as the backbone of decency a healthy society. I greatly dislike what is happening in the political world, but Lledo, which for half a century spread philosophy in colleges and faculties (La Laguna, Barcelona and UNED), is an optimistic fighter, who refuses to give battles lost. “Politics is the administration of justice, education and culture generously”

.

“I am the same as with a cardboard suitcase went broke

to Germany “

During his early years as a teacher of History of Philosophy wrote nothing. “Neither was I going through my head, did nothing to prepare classes. I loved that you create a social space. ” No books used in the classroom, but in time he would eventually generate some essential Spanish texts of contemporary thought: Memory of logos , The Groove Time , Language and . story or Memory of ethics

Now is engaged in an essay on the affections: “I wish I could bring something new albeit tiny. Affects have no grammar and philology, but that gives you strength and freedom. You should think of the grammar of the affections so that love does not turn into hatred or friendship into enmity. The principle of loving relationships that we start with the emotional relationship with ourselves. And it forces you to improve yourself, struggle to look in the mirror and not be ashamed. ” Something the philosopher has: “By age is a time when you think you are few newscasts, but that saddens me at all because I think I’m the same as with a suitcase cardboard broke at the border I went to Germany. I look in the mirror and not ashamed. “
