En 2013, les architectes de l’agence espagnole H Arquitectes ont conçu cette maison familiale située à Sant Cugat del Vallès, à Barcelone. Le design travaille sur les matières en confrontant le béton, la brique rouge, le vieux bois avec une dominante de blanc minimaliste. Les photos sont signées Adrià Goula.

Voici « Summer Barcelona », le titre de cette superbe vidéo tournée par le jeune réalisateur Pau García Laita l’été dernier dans la ville espagnole de Barcelone. Utilisant intelligemment la technique tilt-shift pour montrer la ville catalane comme une miniature, cette création dynamique est à découvrir dans la suite.
Você pode até chamá-lo de pirado, mas a história é que o artista plástico Kurt Perschke criou um projeto chamado Redball, onde ele viaja por vários países com uma imensa bola vermelha. Fotografando, filmando e captando um material muito curioso. E ele defende tudo isso assim:
“Através desse projeto eu me torno um catalisador para novos encontros dentro do cotidiano. A experiência parece ser sobre a bola, mas o verdadeiro ponto está no que o projeto pode criar para aqueles que o experimentam. A bola viaja ao redor do mundo e as pessoas se aproximam de mim na rua com sugestões sobre onde colocá-la em sua cidade. E neste momento a pessoa não é mais espectadora, mas um participante no ato imaginativo.”
Até aqui o projeto já passou por Saint Louis, Barcelona, Sydney, Portland, Scottdale, Chicago, Toronto, Taipei, Abu Dhabi e Norwich. E vem mais por aí.

Amigos, eu sou grato por viver nesses tempos de internet. Não consigo imaginar um mundo sem que qualquer pessoa tenha acesso para publicar todo tipo de groselha online.
De que outra maneira você conheceria a incrível e inovadora Pizza Boomerang? Eleita a melhor pizza voadora de 2011, é uma daquelas criações da genialidade humana que você nunca poderia apresentar para um cliente de verdade. Uma pena.
Mas a produtora Sofa, de Barcelona, resolveu botar em prática mesmo assim. You’re doing it right!
Se você não apreciar o vídeo, é o tipo de pessoa que não merece experimentar esse delicioso alimento voador. Alguém sabe se o YouTube tem um recurso de “repeat” automático?

While in Barcelona i visited BAC!, the contemporary art festival located mainly at the CCCB center.
Poster of the festival featuring a photo from Michael Wolf‘s series “Arquitecture of Densityâ€
This year the theme “Babylon” aims to draw parallels between today’s city and the ancient Babylon, which used to be the largest city in the world from ca. 1770 to 1670 BC, and again between ca. 612 and 320 BC.
This year BAC! Festival attempts a radiography of modern Babylon, where multiculturalism, grand offers and good restaurants coexist harmoniously alongside social inequality, poorness, ghettos, marginalization, housing and mortgage problems. A handful of installations, plenty of photographic works and video art pieces.
My selection is below but if you want to read more about the exhibition, BAC! generously put the whole catalog online for you to download, browse and read. It’s in castellano and catalan, with english translation at the end of the PDF booklet.

I was fascinated by Julio Soto Gurpide‘s photo series On Common Grounds which portrays places that symbolize fallen modern utopias.
India: The city of Chandigarh, designed by Le Corbusier as the political and administrative centre of the new India, is today the playground of ragged children.
Former-Yugoslavia: Thousands of neighbours share the walls of an imperfect communist dream in Mamutica (Mammoth, sometimes known as Mamut), the largest building (by volume) in Zagreb and Croatia, as well as one of the largest apartment blocks in Europe. This apartment complex was built in 1974 in Novi Zagreb.

Brazil: Despite their promise to bring prosperity to the jungle zone, the petrolific landscapes of Cubatao have resulted into a contaminated area where it is impossible to breathe.
Living in Babylon (BAC! part 1)
One of the most striking and enchanting pieces i saw at BAC!, the contemporary art festival in Barcelona, is Yamila Fontán’s Nocturna. The audiovisual installation uses several artistic disciplines to tell a very intimate story in a very intimate way. Nini is a cabaret performer and Ema is selling the tickets at the entrance. They are friends and lovers.
One night Ema wakes up and Nini is gone. She’ll dreamingly go through the city looking for her friend.
It was the first time i saw a work based on stereoscopic images that was in no way cheesy and is actually very sexy and elegant. It reminded me of the view master toy.
Ouside and inside the Nocturna cabin
You enter a booth, the size of the ones you’d find in train stations to make passport photos. Or is it the kind of booth they have in peep shows? Nothing tells you what might happen in there, only your own curiosity will have you take the following actions:
You enter, sit down, the curtains are red, the armchair is red and comfortable. Adjust your seat, lean on and place your eyes in front of the binocular-like apparatus. The story unveils in 3D images which change when you press a button, just like the View Master. There’s also a sound track which changes and brings a new atmosphere each time the protagonist visits a new location. You can’t choose your role, you have them all: you’re a voyeur, a curious child, the reader of a fotonovela and an art lover.
Each stereoscopic image is made of 2 photographies which were taken with a 35mm camera featuring a double objective lens. What the spectator sees is in fact two diapositives displayed at the same moment.
The 34 images of the story are mounted on a cylinder and at its center is the screening light. The cylinder moves the photos and is activated by a motor which in turn is controlled by a PIC microchip which adjusts the sound track and the intensity of the light as well.
I really felt sucked into another world, the images were exquisite, the women made me question my heterosexuality, the soundtrack mysterious, the story… Well, you get it, right? I loved that work.
