Let´s see it in terms of absolute topicality. This is a battle. EDI TOR page Yes ... art is at war against mass communication, ignorance and even indifference. It is not a new war, it seems to us that, always, the art maintains a fight against the preference for the popular spectacles. It does not mean that the popular genre should not exist, in any way. But I think the general public lacks easy-to-reach information to meet other artistic expressions and then decide what they like or do not like. There are those who could say that opera, or ballet, or abstract painting does not like it. It may be that he has not had the opportunity to hear some La Boheme aria - for example - to be delighted. Seeing Lake of the Swans is an unforgettable experience, as well as being planted suddenly, in front of paintings by José Luis Cuevas, can cause .an impact that distances him from having an interest in art But when you have the opportunity to be offered choices, you will surely find something that appeals to you. When you have the option to walk the path that leads you to the appreciation of sound, colors, shapes, you will surely find your preferences. Because every human being has a source of inner sensitivity that is able to appreciate artistic expressions and provide happiness with it. Pablo Picazo said: "We are all born artists ... the bad thing is that we are forgetting." And this is because we .lack education Our pages pretend to put a small grain of sand in this universe of art. Each page is shaped by a particle of the art of beginners and consecrated artists, who are all warriors in this struggle against .mass communication .We are striving to achieve our goal .Thank you for hosting us
