Dear friends of this beautiful Daily Blog community, I join you today to share an interesting walk where I got to know one of the works of the Biennial that is exhibited in the Plaza Vieja.
For two weeks the XV Biennial has been held in Havana, this is an event where contemporary works of art by artists from different countries are exhibited and exhibited in the streets, galleries and museums to promote the link of the people with art, in this way art reaches everyone equally.
I have always enjoyed the works that exhibit outdoors as it allows interaction with people who cross their path during the daily routine and also when we go for a walk to enjoy the open environment. In our streets there are works that their authors have permanently left as a gift to the inhabitants who admire them.
Nube de madera en la Plaza Vieja
Estimados amigos de esta bella comunidad Daily Blog, me uno a ustedes hoy para compartir un paseo interesante donde conocí una de las obras de la Bienal que está expuesta en la Plaza Vieja.
Desde hace dos semanas se está celebrando en la Habana la XV Bienal, este es un evento donde se exponen obras de arte contemporáneas de artistas de diferentes países y se exhiben en las calles, galerías y museos para fomentar la vinculación del pueblo con el arte, de esta forma el arte llega a todos por igual.
Siempre he disfrutado de las obras que exponen al aire libre ya que permite la interacción con las personas que se cruzan en su camino durante la rutina diaria y también cuando salimos a caminar a disfrutar del entorno abierto. En nuestras calles hay obras que sus autores las han dejado permanentemente como un obsequio a los pobladores que las admiran.
Since the Biennial was inaugurated, I had not been able to walk the streets where some of these works are exhibited. That's why yesterday we set out to visit the Plaza Vieja because I had seen in the advertisements a work by the German sculptor Martin Steinert called Wood Cloud, Architecture of Desires. It is a large cloud made of thousands of wooden slats, has a height of 8 meters and 10 in diameter. This sculptor has made 35 of these clouds in different countries and it is his first time in our country.
I loved this work because the artist's goal is for people to interact with his work by writing down a wish or thought. I knew that it was going to be difficult for me to find a space to write my wish, since almost all the tables I could access were already written, the highest bars are still free. But after searching all over the cloud I found a place to capture it.
Desde que se inauguró la Bienal no había podido recorrer las calles donde están expuestas algunas de estas obras. Por eso ayer nos dispusimos a visitar la Plaza Vieja porque había visto en los anuncios una obra del escultor alemán Martin Steinert llamada Nube de madera, arquitectura de los deseos. Se trata de una gran nube hecha con miles de listones de madera, tiene una altura de 8 metros y 10 de diámetro. Este escultor ha realizado 35 de estas nubes en diferentes países y es su primera vez en nuestro país.
Me encantó esta obra porque el objetivo del artista es que las personas interactúen con su obra escribiendo un deseo o pensamiento. Sabía que me iba a ser difícil encontrar un espacio para escribir mi deseo, ya que casi todas las tablas a las que yo podía acceder ya estaban escritas, aún están libres los listones más altos. Pero después de buscar por toda la nube encontré un lugar para plasmarlo.
I also took the opportunity to photograph the square, it is so beautiful!, its cobbled streets, the colonial buildings with their columns, arches, large windows, beautiful stained glass windows and facades with bright paintings.
In addition, its beautiful fountain made of Carrara marble and the sculptures on display are impressive.
I love to see that immense rooster by our great artist Roberto Fabelo, it is a bronze sculpture in which the rooster has a woman riding a large fork, I really like this sculpture because of the allegory it represents.
I am also very struck by the sculpture called Natura that represents a flower that grows in the square itself.
También aproveché la ocasión para fotografiar la plaza, ¡es tan bella!, sus calles adoquinadas, los edificios coloniales con sus columnas, arcos, grandes ventanales, hermosos vitrales y fachadas con pinturas brillantes.
Además, su fuente hermosa hecha de mármol de Carrara y las esculturas que se exhiben son impresionantes.
Me encanta ver ese inmenso gallo de nuestro gran artista Roberto Fabelo, es una escultura de bronce en la cual el gallo tiene montada una mujer que sostiene un gran tenedor, me gusta mucho esta escultura por la alegoría que representa.
También me llama mucho la atención la escultura llamada Natura que representa una flor que nace en la propia plaza.
In the square you could feel a very lively Cuban music that invited you to go dancing, my feet immediately began to move and I went straight to see where it was, it was a musical group that was playing at the La Vitrola Restaurant, it has a very Cuban design with many old objects and photos of cultural personalities such as the singer Celia Cruz and the writer Ernest Hemingway who made it a great experience. frequented in times past. I liked getting to know the place because it is very lively and welcoming.
En la plaza se sentía una música cubana muy animada que invitaba a ir a bailar, a mí enseguida se me empiezan a mover los pies y fui directo a ver dónde era, se trataba de un conjunto musical que estaba tocando en el Restaurante La Vitrola, tiene un diseño muy cubano con muchos objetos antiguos y fotos de personalidades de la cultura como la cantante Celia Cruz y el escritor Ernest Hemingway que lo frecuentaron en tiempos pasados. Me gustó conocer el lugar porque es muy animado y acogedor.
It is my wish that you liked the tour of the Plaza Vieja and that you learned about this sculpture Wooden cloud of the Biennial, have you already thought about what message you would like to write down? Don't miss the opportunity to visit it.
