Comunitary Feminism

My favorite subject studied during this semester was not related to the university. I’ve studied it during this semester but along my artistic studying. I have been studying about comunitary feminism with a group of friends. Comunitary feminism  is one of the many indigenous womens groups movements, that are looking for their reclaiming inside their circles and then in our whole society. They’re the ones who work side by side with urban white feminist womens, the one who’ll never call themselves as feminists because is it a occidental ideology that doesn’t represent them, and the ones who doesn’t call themselves as feminists because it may offend or disturb the people around them, as many other kind of comunitary feminists. 

We have started studying this subject during april, now we’ve passed this topic, to continue studying about feminism but from the opposite side of the worl. Now we’re going to study about the Rote Zoras. A group of anonymous german feminists that have made many differents attempt few decades ago, and they still being anonymous. All of their attempts we’re perfectly realized, and by today just 2 of them has been prosecuted.

Artishock Magazine's Website

On this blog I'm going to talk about the Artishock Magazine’s website. This site is a review of the contemporary art scene in Ibero-America, but focused the most in the Chilean contemporary visual art scenario. Here is possible to find artists, art -critics and curators interviews, or articles about talks and expositions that happened on many cities on Ibero-America. 

There’s also a section that personally I’ve seen only on this site.  In this section, a journalist makes some reviews of artists’s studios by visits that he or she makes. Here they tell something about the artist work and process. 

I use this website mostly to read arts related news and to see artist’s portfolios. Once a week the magazine website upload a video that talks about any item I’ve tell before, as a micro-documental. The last one for example, is a 5 minutes documental as an interview of an Argentinian artist named Marta Minujin that is like a Hispanoamerican Yayoi Kuzama. I think it amazing to have a website that promoves the awareness that in our continent there’s so much art and action happening now.
