4° Edición del Festival de El Quijote – José Martí


Leer de gratis a Meñique

Esta bella historia narra cómo los hermanos Pedro, Pablo y Juancito (al que conocían como Meñique porque era tan pequeño que se podía esconder en la bota de su padre) decidieron ir a probar suerte en un reino muy particular y las pruebas que Meñique deberá superar para ganarse el corazón de la princesa.

 

Meñique es una bella historia escrita por José Martí. Sucedió que un día en un país muy extraño salió un roble gigante frente al palacio del rey y el agua dejó de manar de sus fuentes.

El rey ofreció la mitad del reino y la mano de la princesa a quien pudiera cortar el roble y abrir un pozo para tener agua de nuevo. Los hermanos Pedro, Pablo y Juancito (al que conocían como Meñique porque era tan pequeñito que se podía esconder en la bota de su padre) decidieron ir a probar suerte y ¡adivina quién lo logró! Esta fue apenas la primera prueba que Meñique debía superar para ganarse el corazón de la princesa.

Descubre las demás pruebas que superó Meñique en esta historia con ilustraciones de Elizabeth Builes.

Sarah Elizabeth Cornejo

“I make work about the lives of women in their entirety and about the stories surrounding them”

Bio: I did my undergraduate work at Davidson college majoring in English Literature and Visual Art. Afterward I worked as a scenic designer and artist on a feature film in New Orleans, and the West Indies before coming to Chapel Hill to begin a Masters of Fine Arts program.

 

 

Artist Statement:

Woman-Friend, n.(My own definition).

  1. Coming from the term woman, referring to a human woman who may or may not fit the socially limited perspective of feminine as being a pelvis that contains a vaginal canal, cervix, uterus, and ovaries.
  1. A life giving, deeply intimate (whether sexually or non-sexually) relationship between women. A companion of struggle. Of a woman’s sphere. An expression of appreciation and love of woman culture and woman experience as in Alice Walker’s appreciation of Womanist and
  1. Separate from the term “girlfriends.” A rejection/surpassing of girlhood/childhood implications of that relationship. Implies a whole person and a whole adult. Not about games or play. Rejection of the diminished perspective that we hold socially regarding the relationships between women.
  1. Rejection of the notion that women are viewed through their attachments and relations to men – that women must be preoccupied with men. This absence of men does not imply a sexual relationship between woman friends, though the relationship can be sexual. A close woman friend is a bond, not to be confused with love of an individual man, or of many men, which is good, but separate.

I explore the unsaid within the way women learn to exist in the world, the appearance and importance of female organs, and the presence of mixed-race people within American history. Through these themes I discuss the realities of the roles women occupy as girls, daughters, lovers, mothers, and grandmothers, the rights of passage and unique violence of the female body during menstruation, sex, and childbirth, what it means to possess our preconceived notions of “female” organs, and what it means to lack them. Finally, my work discusses the realities of being mixed-race, and what it means to experience life by the code of an intangible system such as race, versus a physical system, such as menstruation, and how one responds to societal discomfort with the ambiguous.

I aim to create a space where these softly spoken truths, which so often go unsaid, can exist within individual pieces, but the pieces can hang together in a way that speaks them and, by doing so, opens up the viewer to an experience of empathy for one women’s truth and to a moment of reflection on their own – hopefully allowing them, not necessarily to share, but to recognize the unsaid within themselves.

Yuko Nogami Taylor

(Japanese/American, 1965 — — )
Yuko is a painter renowned both regionally and internationally. She has multiple exhibits in galleries in the Southern United States. Her work is inspired both by modern western art and Japanese historical images. Her unique style combines two heritages of Japan and the southern United States on canvas, serving to create harmony between nature and humble people.

Born in Tokyo, Japan, Yuko grew up in prestigious private schools.  Throughout her school years she was trained in classical Japanese calligraphy and painting. She excelled in her artistic talent and emerged with a unique painting approach as a result of being exposed to the high-end culture of Japan.  In 1990 Yuko moved to the southern United States to free herself from the pressure of a predetermined life within her expected social boundaries. She settled here and has raised two sons, one with Autism.  She is married to a Jazz drummer. As her sons have grown, she has resumed her artistic passion. She expresses her unique fusion of cultural experiences through visual art. Yuko skillfully merges the heritage of southern African American culture (a part of her sons’ and husband’s heritage) and Japanese culture into oil paintings.  Yuko Nogami Taylor’s series Majestic Incognito is based on rare photos of African-Americans taken in the early 1900s.

She creates a connection between them and our inner selves, using her Japanese heritage to celebrate the strength, honor the humility, and share the beauty that is in all our lives.

ARTIST STATEMENT
Yuko Ngami Taylor

Majesty Incognito – Historical photo Series paintings
There are very few archival photographs of Southern African Americans dating from the early 1900’s. The original black and white images fascinated me with their powerful imagery, compelling me to paint color and life into them. I am particularly captivated and moved by the dichotomy of strength and humility etched in these human portraits.
Through my series of paintings, I hope to bridge a connection between my nameless subjects and our inner selves using my Japanese heritage, to celebrate the strength, to honor the humility, and to share the beauty that is in all our lives.

This year the El Quixote Festival Honors Sor Juana Ines De La Cruz – La Decima Musa, with a dramatic theatrical reading of selected poetic, dramatic, and prose works by Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1651-1695), an extremely important colonial Mexican intellectual and literary figure.

Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz is considered to be the greatest woman poet of Latin America. Sor Juana’s “La Respuesta”, her essay in defense of herself as a scholar and as an artist, stands for all time as one of the most elegant and learned defenses of the rights of women to equal opportunity in human culture. To this day, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz is honored as Mexico’s greatest hero.

Join us for a night in celebration of her magnificent words.


Este año, el Festival de El Quijote Honra a Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz – La Decima Musa, con una dramática lectura teatral de obras poéticas, dramáticas y de prosa seleccionadas escritas por Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1651-1695), una figura literaria e intelectual colonial mexicana de gran importancia.

Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz es considerada la mejor poeta mujer de América Latina. “La Respuesta” de Sor Juana, su ensayo en defensa de sí misma como erudita y como artista, representa para todos los tiempos una de las defensas más elegantes y aprendidas de los derechos de las mujeres a la igualdad de oportunidades en la cultura humana. Hasta el día de hoy, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz es homenajeada como el héroe más grande de México.

Únete a nosotros para pasar una noche en celebración de sus magníficas palabras.

Libia Posada Be Patient – Se Paciente

Libia Posada Exhibit “Be Patient” “Se Paciente”

August 31 – September 16, 2017

Reception September 16, 2017 6 PM

Colombian Surgeon and Contemporary Artist Libia Posada Brings Unique Visual Perspective to Duke as Visiting Katz Family Fellow

With support provided by the Katz Family Women, Ethics and Leadership Fund, the Kenan Institute for Ethics, the Duke’s Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, the Global Health Institute, and Artist Studio Project will host Dr. Libia Posada Aug. 31 to Sept. 16. Posada, a Katz Family Fellow, will spend her time on campus and in Durham leading workshops and presentations with students, faculty and community members that deal with migration and trauma and how she connects art and medicine.

Posada will also showcase an in-process art installation throughout her stay, “BE PATIENT | SE PACIENTE,” comprised of materials collected from Duke’s Medical Surplus Warehouse and Posada’s own work. The installation can be viewed from Sept. 5 through Sept. 20 at the Fredric Jameson Gallery in the Friedl Building on East Campus. Duke will host a reception to highlight Posada and her work at 6 p.m. Sept. 16, which is open to the community.

Programming and events during Posada’s stay include:

Sept. 1 to 6

Posada will collaborate with local non-profit El Centro Hispano, which advocates for equity and inclusion for Hispanics/Latinos in the Triangle. She will develop a focus-group workshop on migration, body and geography based on her 2008 artwork “Cardinal Signs (Body Maps),” which mapped the journey of forced displayed Colombians who fled war in their country with ink drawings on their legs. In Durham, Posada will work with a group of Central American migrants to share their stories of coming to the U.S. and detail the process physically by drawing on their bodies maps of their travel as a way to represent the physical toll of the experience.

Sept. 11 to 14

At Duke, Posada will visit classes to present on her work dealing with partner violence and sexual violence with students, faculty and staff at the Duke Women’s Center, the Global Health Institute, the and Social Practice Lab. Posada will lead short workshop discussions on the topics from a medical, cultural, and social perspective, noting the phenomenon of infectious disease, violence, and trauma. Participants will produce text and image-based art based on the discussions.

Sept. 15 and 16

Posada will participate in the Franklin Humanities Institute’s Health Humanities Conference, “Breath, Body, Voice.” She will co-lead a workshop on her unique medical/artistic practice that links research, action, and creation with communities in Colombia and Durham. Her art exhibit and reception will be held 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. at the Fredric Jameson Gallery, 115 Friedl Building (Duke East Campus).

Libia Posada, Colombia

About Libia Posada

Libia Posada, M.D., is a surgeon and contemporary artist from Medellín, Colombia. She specializes in emergency medicine, social medicine, and visual art at the University of Antioquia. Her overlapping medical/artistic practice focuses on public health, intimate partner violence, forced displacement, trauma, traditional medicine, and community healing practices.

Since the early 1990s, Dr. Posada has worked for public hospitals and in private practice to care for patients suffering physical and psychological trauma from Colombia’s history of internal conflict, including violent crime, narcoterrorism, forced displacement, and epidemic gender violence. Her art, ranging from performance to installation, photography, drawing, and video, is collaborative and community-responsive.

Her 2009-2011 “Cardinal Signs (Body Maps)” explores embodied storytelling of forced migration through focus group work and temporary body tattoos. In 2012, “Neurographics and Grey Matter: The Inefficacy of Reason” conducted workshops with victims of forced displacement and the visual medium of diagnostic MRI images to produce testimonial visual installations. Her current work is engaged with botanical knowledge and alternative healing practices, including nutrition, sustainable food practices, and community memory of health traditions. Dr. Posada has exhibited in Colombia, Mexico, the UK, Brazil, China, Switzerland, Cuba, and Chile.

In 2000, he participated in a project to create 20 posters of Latin American paper money for the Latino Credit Union (LCCU) in Durham, N.C. Later, more branches in the state exhibit these posters with text in English and Spanish. In 2001, he met the U.S. Treasurer, Rosario Marín, during a brief visit to the LCCU headquarter in Durham.

Through the years, he had been participating in several events, as follow: annual conventions, international congresses, currency shows and educational activities.  Working for the Public School system had had the opportunity to share his numismatic knowledge with young students in the schools and local universities.

Currently, Chirinos lives with his wife and daughter in Durham, NC. Now he is member of the NC-IBNS Chapter as researcher.
