HIROSHI YAMANO It is difficult.
M. A. Carretero.
Indeed, it is difficult to try to explain in this space and now some kind of idea or alien thought to Newsletters what is happening in our Museum. Removing the top floor as part of the exhibition space of the MAVA , as true and as accomplished fact , we will not head for many attempts we want to do . But that fact already done and it has brought our Association deprivation of an area for the location of our headquarters is complicated unquestioning way not knowing with certainty the fate that is going to give that space by the team governance of our City . We know from news sources that his fate may be installing a meeting point where children of separated couples will be with the parent without custody assigned during the Nuestra sede: time laid down by the Castillo Grande de judge who wrote the S.J. de Valderas judgment of separation Avda. Los Castillos, s/n of both spouses. 28925 ALCORCÓN. Also known by such me(MADRID) dia sources , that the acinfo@amigosmava.org tivity of the Meeting Point will be managed by a private company. Company that already manages similar facility in
Alcorcón and another in Getafe . Also , it seems that this project is based on an agreement between the Community of Madrid and our City . As much as we try, and if the implementation of this project is confirmed, we do not get to understand the purpose of this purpose. We can not understand the suitability posed to the government team of our City that space located in an emblematic place as our Museum . Is not there another location in our town more in line with the requirements of a suitable preparation for the role they have to play a meeting point of these characteristics ? At times we are going through our minds the possibility that we are just seeing where giant windmills, but this possibility is being concocted by obscurantism presiding in this case the management of the Department of Culture of our City . The last day of November 11 request that Department , through an application lodged at the Registry Entry Township , the information about the scope of the agreement signed with the Community of Madrid, to have reliable information that would allow us to inform our partners in the scope of the reform being done on the top floor of our museum . So far, the silence is the only response received from our Department of Culture .
Is secrecy until the consummation of the facts is an effective policy based on the absolute majority of the party that supports the government team and supported by the lack of action of the Aldermen of the opposition and the lack of neighborhood associations in our city ? Keep in mind that the MAVA is municipally owned and therefore all citizens of our capital , not a space Proprietary Councilman turn. Therefore, any attack to be made on this landmark cultural space as the MAVA , is an assault on the rights of citizens of the municipality. Or is it that by the Councillor for Culture Our Association does not deserve a minimum of respect to their demands and responds with his contemptuous silence and the final elimination of the space in which it was or could be our headquarters ? Without wishing in any way to any threat , I repeat that our Alderman said that as castizo " Horsemen and I are on the road we will meet ." And you may also have to be very sure that most clubs we brought into the spokes of the wheels of our car, will continue to drive the attainment of the objectives of our Association as we have done so far, without a hint of discouragement or demoralization . Just a notice to mariners .

In the early days of this January we were in Denia visiting the Glazier artist Salvador Cervera. A couple of hours of fruitful conversation in a quiet terrace in the harbor and Salvador informed us that the characteristics of a project that will start this year and which has high hopes and dreams . It is commendable that, which is falling despite the brutal way in which
We will be attentive to the evolution of this project and we wish you the best of success in his endeavor. In our conversation we were doing a tour of the various issues that are of mutual interest relating to the glass of our environment. Particularly , we stopped in the analysis of the expectations that have been opened with the new management of the National Glass Centre and the need to be a benchmark for all artistesanos of our state.

Volume II — Number 62
His work appears in numerous collections , both public and private , including the Corning Museum of Glass in New York , the Museum of Glass in New Jersey Wheaton and the Chrysler Museum in Virginia. Hiroshi Yamano has been an integral part of a generation of artists who are transforming the functional glass container in a sculptural form . His canvases are glass bowls for artistic expression , and the creation of his work, which has transformed the craft into an art glass .
Born in 1956 in Fukuoka , Japan, Hiroshi Yamano has been working with glass for over 25 years. He studied at prestigious schools throughout the U.S. and Japan, and the California College of Arts and Crafts , Tokyo Glass Art Institute , and Rochester Institute of Technology, where he received his MFA . Yamano began working with glass in 1975 after seeing an exhibition of Scandinavian glass in Kyoto. After traveling to Europe, returned to Japan to complete their studies.

Young artists. Andrew Erdos. New York artist Andrew Erdos combines glass sculpture , video, performance , and sound to explore the intersection of culture , technology and nature. He says: " In my work there is a complex series of relationships that happen , I'm trying to explore all possible warnings of an idea." The Erdos is pop art , sarcastic and bold in the sense that it is not afraid. Use techniques of traditional glass blowing and - effects such as mirror to create distinctive environments and traditional narratives. Erdos has always used characters in his works. An anonymous disguised Santalope , a trickster in the form of a hybrid horned Santa , was a character who appeared in the first video of Erdos . This work was essentially pastoral in nature , reflecting the location of the artist, in western New York State . More recently , the most urbanized Erdos cybercriatura uses a cartoon , a fantastic still be naive to negotiate a bewildering and visually cacophonous world. It is difficult to know whether Erdos is leading the viewer in a direction that is post- apocalyptic or kitsch, and this confusion is a clash of opposites- that explodes in their symbolic narratives. Erdos titles often refer to the time , ghosts, or nature , and his vision is essentially dystopian , but tempered with empathy , humor, and wonder. www.amigosmava.org

Despite the multitude of styles and materials with which the artist works , all his works have one thing in common: they inspire the viewer to think . One of the most impressive works of Alejandro features, and the key to its success is the psychological representation of the character and his soul and spirit. In his works he often uses different materials like canvas fabrics of different colors , wood, leaves, paper , stones , coins ... to give just a few examples. His innovative use of different materials gives some plasticity and increases the compactness of the characters. Alejandro Hermann, his great master Leonardo Da Vinci is a true genius who believes . In this January we approach the "Casa de Vacas " Cultural Centre in the Retiro Park, to see the exhibition of the works of Alejandro Hermann .
Alexander, born in Buenos Aires , Argentina , residing for more than thirty years in various parts of Europe and the last decade living in Marbella.
In order to experience the paintings of Alexander Hermann, explore their artistic talents and exceptional style , you have to live the strength and beauty that they transmit .
He says of himself that he is a simple man , struggling to be at peace and harmony with the interior and art, which he defines as a mixture of expressionism , realism and spiritual dream . His works have been able to visit

The invention of snow globes.
Volume II — Number 62
January 2014

Erwin Perzy III is not an expert in snow , but her family has lived for over a century. This 57 year old Austrian is the grandson of the man who went down in history as the inventor of the snow globe . And his grandfather, Erwin Perzy first , the idea came by accident in 1900. Mass production began in 1905 in Vienna and 108 years later , the company, Original Snow Globes Vienna - still stands strong in the field. Perzy III has been in charge since early 1980 and the company , despite having only 30 -15 employees who work from home - produced about 200,000 snow globes year. Unlike its competitors in the Far East who lash on the market with cheaper products, Perzy suggest exclusivity. Your snow globes are painted and assembled by hand. The cover also is still made of glass instead of plastic. Celebs snowballs Despite the small size of the company and a relative lack of knowledge among those who are not knowledgeable about snow globes , still have some illustrious clients. Recently made balloons for girls of U.S. President Barack Obama , which also made to Bill Clinton and the late Ronald Reagan. They have also been in the movies. The snowball dramatically falling and breaking at the beginning of the classic film Citizen Kane ( 1941)
was made by Snow Globes Originals Vienna.
Erwin Perzy II took over from his father after World War II and presented different designs, such as Christmas trees, Santa Claus and snowmen.
Perzy III who succeeded his father at the head of the company, says he never hesitated to join the family business .

The designers have provided a boat capable of crossing the Atlantic at a good speed ( 17 knots ), with bright interiors and modern luxury on all sides . They say its designers , according to the press, that the hull of the boat is designed to measure the Dutch kings and their three daughters.
