Anima Mundi it is a Latin philosophical term to describe the soul of the world, the nature in her totality, it represents the unifying principle from which take form the single organisms. Platone was among the first one to speak of “Soul of the world” inheriting this concept from oriental traditions, orphic and pitagoric theories. For the philosopher, the world is a kind of great animal, whose general vitality is supported by the soul. In the past centuries, the concept has found a correspondent in the logos, in the soul contaminated by the subject, tied up to magic concepts, alchemic and hermetic, in the astrology and in the horoscope, and above all in the agreement among celestial and terrestrial events, as expressions of a same vital principle. From Schelling to Schopenhauer, from Bergson to Carl Jung, the concept of soul of the world is developed following the parameter of the Atman or the Ego, that is the principle of the Itself individual and internal, as it happens today in the oriental religions, and it symbolizes the indissoluble union of the cosmic dualism of the yin and yang, according to a harmonic and organic vision of the universe. Hovewer, one of the most important literary testimonies of the medioeval civilization is the poem “Divine Comedy” by Dante Alighieri. Divided in three parts calls "cantiche" (Hell, Purgatory and Heaven) it narrates the trip of poet through the three ultramundane kingdoms with the objective to reach the presence of God. The textual structure of the Comedy coincides with the cosmological representation of the medieval imaginary. The trip to the hell and on the mountain of the Purgatory they represent,in fact, the crossing of the whole planet, conceived as a sphere, from his depths to the most elevated regions; while the Heaven is a representation symbolic and visual of the tolemaic cosmos’s memory. In the poem there is an universal personal vision under the aspect of redemption of the humanity, redemption of the poet after a period of aberration (dark forest), political and religious redemption. Paraphrasing the Divine Comedy, some artists in the show, propose different formalities on the relationship of the poem. The French Juanca, has realized two pictorial works, putting to comparison the hell and the Heaven, not only distinguishing in the color steps (red the first and blue the second), but also in the graphics layout. The hell is a rock from whose cracks sinks in a dark place, warm; while the Heaven has been identified as an island surrounded by an ocean, the blue color, among its qualities is also associated to the serenity, to the peace, while the red to the passion, to the pain, etc. Paolo Consorti’s work (from San Benedetto del Tronto) at the divine comedy is inspired to its production in to treat the human nature and the sin, in an extraordinary visual match where the classical art unites him to the contemporary art. In the video performance, "Inside the secret things", the artist is director and scriptwriter, he recreates a cinematographic set, where he representing the third song of the hell of Dante, with a look suffered on today's humanity. From the Hell to the Heaven, from the sins to the expiations they are alternated a series of works that accompany us in this extraordinary trip in the anima mundi. Alexandra De Pinho, Portuguese, has chosen the footstep where Dante meets Beatrice that will conduct him in the Heaven. She has represented the run or labyrinth, with a cobweb (type game of the goose) to whose center a lamp from miners extinguished, where the words of Beatrice resound and subsequently a lamp turned on that it represents that the run is next to God. Of great visual impact, the installation "De Profundis" of Roberta Fanti, from Turin, that introduces three elements that followinf all of her production and concept of works: a naked and chained body, that represents the suffering as expiation of the sins, the red rose as symbol of the sin but also of the love, a box of weak (light box) light with the writing in Latin that represents the rule, the passage, the grave or the life over the death. Elements that play on different keys of reading and that they move concepts of duality between passion and pleasure, between sacred and profane, among ancient and modern, between the same duality and the unity. Around seven sins it search Dario Manco from Puglia, even, present in show with the first three photos that allude to the Anger, the Haughtiness and the Throat. A graphic layout, that remembers us the pictorial production of the white and black in the series "over the wall" and "identity." The artist, sinks in a white colour our more lowest sins, worse, setting the accent in few points of red color, while the figures, as ancient photos alternate from the white to the black. The white acts from not color, from passage, from redemption, gives us the possibility to observe and to understand.The Comedy narrates of angels “driver” and of custodians of the kingdom of the inferred, the figure of the angel crosses numerous religions and doctrines. Jasnica Klara Matić, represents with a lyric and bright painting the custodians of the good and the evil. That of Dante it is a trip in his conscience, a mute dialogue between the terrestrial world and that ultramundane. "Visible to speak", it is the title of the video by Annalisa Silingardi, from Modena, that play with a dialogue for images. Always on the duality among well and badly, the informal works of the Austrian Irma Michaela Szalkay, that sets the accent on more levels than perception uniting myth, philosophy and harmony. Finally, love wins on everything, in the digital paintings of the Mexican Ricardo Villagran, that, also as Consorti, loves to unite the clasical concept with contemporary aspect in two tableau from the great visual effects. According to the German philologist Erich Auerbach, the Comedy is deeply innovative, because it extends to an ample and dramatic representation of the reality. Today's hell, certainly is not the circle of the damned that burn in the eternal flames, but can certainly be associated it to the calamities, to the wars, to the eternal struggle between religions and states, to the contaminated environment, to the violences, etc. Anima Mundi is note like the soul of the world, a box of resonance of all of our emotions, of the way according to which we compare us to the nature or to the choices of life. Certainly rediscovering the ancient relationship zen with the nature and the mythology, present in the photographic works of the Dutch Corrie Anconé (emigrated in Australia in 1953), we can understand better perhaps our nature of human beings that live this world and that we are only of passage, leaving to man’s of the future a new way to compare to the places, as the American Janine Biunno suggests, in her lithographies of the series "commerce" or reflecting on our identity "genetically modified" in the vision of the perugian Simone Chiorri or to reflect on the concepts of culture and immigration, as sayd the Spanish Alvaro Escrische suggests us with his origamis, not to fall in the desolation, in the limbo of the uncertainty, in the run without destination of the sketches of "Sky and Earth" of the English David Harker. "Subway" it is the title of the installation of the Swedian Krister Paleologos, already whose name "paleo logos" it pushes us in the deepest placet, today calls subways, where the artist writes and draws the passage of the people, of the standstills, of the attended, of the speed and of the chaos. On pop way the English Madeleine Strindberg, tells for images, the war conflicts of the oriental countries, the child-rapes that ride mules on desolate lands,surrounded by armed wagons, bombs anti man and radiations. Many artists, today, look at the social reality, because social and cultural differences are evident even more that in the past. For Slovenian Urh Sobocan, the world should constantly look at the past, because the innovation exists if there is no abuse of the things that the tradition has taught us. He, realizes, in fact, the work "survive", with the ancient work of the lace, that doesn't leave space to the photomechanical reproduction but that creates an interrelation among handmade and art, between artist and surrounding space. With "Behind the mask", the Canadian Monte Wright, realizes a series of digital photos, connecting to the myth of the mask, used in remote times as mean of communication between the men and the gods, while in modern times is in the theatrical representations or in the popular parties as the Carnival. And finally, on the relationship between nature and organic architecture, the works of painting and printmaking by Korean Joo Yeon Judy Yang, recently transferred in New York, in her works differences are recognized between the origin and the acquired culture.

ArteTexto de díptico catálogo.Persona que tiene alma. Cabe preguntarse si la sociedad contemporánea no está agobiada por la nuevaimagen de la corporalidad, y si ve a la felicidad como un logro o como unaobligación. Cabe preguntarse si la estética, el modelo de contemplación, lameta o la utopía no se han convertido ahora en una herramienta derepresión. Repasando estos tópicos pensé en el alma, o en la idea de alma,y supuse que una persona que tiene alma es alguien que comprende lasinjusticias de la corporalidad. Ricardo Lescano. Córdoba. Marzo de 2009 Person who has a soul.It was once commonly believed that photography was a sherr mechanicalprocess, incapable of expressing human feeling. But every contribution tothe PERSON WHO HAS A SOUL project shows how deeply misleading thatprejudice was.

Febrero de 2009.Textos de los pensadores:Noel Carroll:It was once commonly believed that photography was a sherr mechanicalprocess, incapable of expressing human feeling. But every contribution tothe PERSON WHO HAS A SOUL project shows how deeply misleading thatprejudice was. Each photo radiates personality in its own very unique way,The project is a celebration of the human spirit and of the spirits ofhumans. Fué comúnmente creído que la fotografía era un proceso mecánico, incapaz deexpresar el sentimiento humano. Pero cada contribución al proyecto PERSONAQUE TIENE ALMA, muestra profundamente el engaño que era ese prejuicio.Cada foto irradia la personalidad de su propio modo, muy único. El proyectoes una celebración del espíritu humano y de los espíritus de los humanos. David Deutsch:"I do not believe in the supernatural in any form. Nevertheless I amconvinced that there is something inherent in human beings that is not inany other animal nor in any (present-day) machine. This may be called thesoul, but to call it supernatural is to denigrate it, for it is not givento us by any Providence, nor is it structureless: we create it forourselves. Similarly, one denigrates the human soul by calling it theproduct of our genes and environment, for again, it is not programmed intous, we create it for ourselves. That each person is unique is a truism, andyet we habitually underestimate the extent of the difference. Each humansoul is an entire, self-created world." No creo en lo sobrenatural en ninguna forma. Sin embargo estoy convencidoque hay algo inherente en los seres humanos que no está en ningún otroanimal, ni en ninguna máquina (actual). Pueden llamar a esto el alma, perollamarlo sobrenatural es denigrarlo, ya que ello no está dado por ningunaProvidencia y tampoco existe sin estructura: lo creamos para nosotros.Asimismo uno denigra el alma humana al llamarla el producto de nuestrosgenes y ambiente, donde otra vez, no es programado en nosotros, lo creamospara nosotros. Cada persona es única, es un lugar común, y todavíahabitualmente subestimamos el grado de la diferencia. Cada alma humana esuna entera, auto-crearon del mundo. "Teun A. van Dijk:Para un analista del discurso que celebra la investigación multidisciplinarentre Discurso, Cognición y Sociedad, el Alma está en la Mente de la Gente.Nuestra creatividad, nuestra investigación y otras actividades críticas sedesarrollan en la mente de la gente en la sociedad. Sin reducir nuestrasemociones, conocimientos e ideologías a nuestras neuronas, nuestro cerebroes la magnífica herramienta humana para poder sentir, comprender, hablar,comunicar y actuar. Con todos los límites y posibilidades humanas. Asítambién empezamos a comprender lo que el Alma significaba para la cienciadel pasado, y para el arte, la literatura o los sentimientos de la gente desiempre. Por lo tanto, lo que para mí sería el Alma-como-Mente, es lo quecontrola y se manifiesta en el discurso y la interacción y lo que define lacomprensión. John Cacioppo:The richness of a person's soul is measured by his or her contributions tothe poorest among us. La riqueza del alma de una persona es medida por su contribuciones al máspobre entre nosotros. Todd Gitlin:When I think about a person who has soul, I think of a person who is afraidof neither passion nor intellect, who pulls open the curtain, reveals thatwhich was hidden, and surprises himself. Cuando pienso en una persona quien tiene el alma, pienso en una personaquien no tiene miedo de la pasión, ni de intelecto, quien abre la cortina,revela eso que fue ocultado, y se sorprende a si mismo. Philip Johnson-Laird:A person with a soul does not survive death.Una persona con un alma no sobrevive la muerte.Douglas Kellner:A PERSON WHO HAS SOUL has depth of feeling and vision, criticalconsciousness and awareness, and openness to experience of the world. Asoul-full person is a social individual, attuned to and involved withothers, and deeply embedded in nature, aware of our being-in-nature andone-ness with the natural world. Soul implies awe in the face of theuniverse and its mysteries and wonder about the fate of humans, the earth,and one's personal destiny. UNA PERSONA QUIEN TIENE EL ALMA tiene la profundidad de sentimiento y lavisión, el conocimiento crítico y la conciencia, y la franqueza a laexperiencia del mundo. Una persona llena de alma es un individuo social,armonizado e involucrado con los demás, y profundamente encajado en lanaturaleza, consciente de nuestro ser y la unidad con el mundo natural. Elalma implica el temor ante el universo y sus misterios y maravilla sobre eldestino de gente, la tierra, y el destino personal de alguien. Cees J. Hamelink:The focus on the person with soul is extremely important in times that inmany respects are soul-less. To express the need for soul through the artstouches me particularly strong as a former jazz musician. El foco sobre la persona con alma es sumamente importante en momentos, queen muchos sentidos son desalmados. Expresar la necesidad del alma por lasartes me toca fuerte en particular, como un antiguo músico de jazz. Ien Ang:Meeting a stranger, we are always faced with a choice: we can either putthem aside as an undesirable other who merely threatens our way of life andour common sense, or we can accept them as a fellow human being andrecognise their right to be and to co-exist, even though we do not know whothey are. To accept strangers in their strangeness is to learn to live withtheir incongruities and their anomalies, with the fact that we cannotdecide whether they are part of 'us' or part of 'them' - in fact, strangersunsettle the very dichotomy between 'us' and 'them', precisely because wedo not know. The stranger, in short, reminds us that the world isexceedingly complex, not reducible to a simplistic either/or. Encontrando a un extranjero, siempre somos afrontados con una opción:podemos hacerlo a un lado como otro indeseable quien simplemente amenaza anuestro modo de vivir y nuestro sentido común, o podemos aceptarlo como unser humano similar y reconocer su derecho de ser y coexistir, aún cuandonosotros no sepamos lo que ellos son. Aceptar a extranjeros con susextrañezas permite aprender a vivir con sus incongruencias y sus anomalías,con el hecho de que no podemos decidir si ellos son parte 'de nosotros' oparte 'de ellos' - de hecho, los extranjeros desestabilizan la dicotomíamisma entre 'nosotros' 'y ellos', precisamente porque no la conocemos. Elextranjero, abreviando, nos recuerda que el mundo es sumamente complejo, noreductible a un simplista tampoco/o. Thomas W. Benson:Perhaps photography, in materially arresting the passage of time, to becontemplated in a fixed form that endures through time, suggests theanimating soul of photographer and subject, of their intersection andmutual dependency. Quizás la fotografía, materialmente la deteniendo el paso del tiempo, paraser contemplado en una forma fija que dura en el tiempo, sugiere el alma deanimación del fotógrafo y el sujeto, de su intersección y la dependenciamutua. Klaus Bruhn Jensen:In his Phenomenology of Perception (1945), the philosopher MauriceMerleau-Ponty noted that while humans commonly say that they have bodies,they also are bodies. In religious terminology, it is often assumed that,at the core, persons are their souls, and even that their soul - or sometranscendent soul - has them. In a human reality that is both body andsoul, we are bodies and have souls. En su Fenomenología de Percepción (1945), el filósofo Maurice Merleau-Ponty notó que mientras la gente comúnmente dice que ellos tienen cuerpos, ellostambién son cuerpos. En la terminología religiosa, a menudo es asumido que,en el corazón, las personas son sus almas, y, hasta que su alma - o algunaalma transcendente - los tiene. En una realidad humana que es tanto cuerpocomo alma, somos cuerpos y tenemos almas. Klaus Krippendorff PERSONS WITH SOUL initiate spirals of possibilities for others to create benefittingof all. PERSONA CON ALMA inicia espirales de posibilidades para otros a crear en beneficio of to do. Lawrence Grossberg:The soul does not belong to the person, nor is it the person. It is thatwhich gives the person temporality; it is the temporality of theindividual--both a past and a future. It is being stretching acrosstime-space, simultaneously finite and infinite. And for this reason, hesoul is the site of what we call spirituality but which I prefer to callthe ethical. We seem to be desperate for a soul in the contemporary world,because we have lost the ground, the very possibility, of our ownethicality. El alma no pertenece a la persona, tampoco es la persona. Es esto que da latemporalidad de persona; esto es la temporalidad del individuo - tantopasado como un futuro. Esto es el estiramiento a través del espacio tiempo,simultáneamente finito e infinito. Y por esta razón, el alma es el sitio alque llamamos la espiritualidad, pero al que prefiero llamar lo ético.Parecemos estar desesperados por un alma en el mundo contemporáneo, porquehemos perdido la conciencia, la posibilidad misma, de nuestra propia ética. Michael R. Heim:"Modern man in search of a soul?" Well, post-modern humans have no ideawhat to search FOR. So let us SEE the soul in a language we understand:images, film, mobile video. Let us FEEL the beat of soul in music, dance,tai chi. The soul is incarnate in all of us. We only need to live "Bodyand Soul". "¿Hombre moderno en busca de un alma?" Bien, la gente post-moderna no tieneni idea que buscar. Entonces déjennos VER el alma en una lengua la queentendamos: imágenes, película, vídeo móvil. Déjennos SENTIR el golpe dealma en la música, el baile, tai chi. El alma es encarnación en todosnosotros. Sólo tenemos que vivir "Cuerpo y Alma". Celeste Olalquiaga:"Todos tienen un alma, mas no todos lo saben". Luis Camnitzer: Busqué en la parte racional de mi cerebro y no encontré nada. Hurgué en micorazón y solamente encontré sangre. Exploré mi sistema digestivo, el cualmuchas veces recciona emocionalmente, y lo único que encontré fue metano encantidades que ni siquiera rinden comercialmente. Llegué a la conclusiónque los asuntos del alma solamente pueden ser contestados por Gardel o porel alma misma. Traté de recibir alguna respuesta. Gardel dicen algunos quemurió y su silencio parece confirmarlo. Por lo demás solamente encontré elvacío. La verdad de la milanesa seguramente se reduce a que soy, no sabríadecir desde cuando, un desalmado. Cometario del curador:El proyecto va surgiendo espontáneamente de algunos repasos sobre lasensación del presente. En principio, no puedo imaginarme nuestra sociedad,o comunidad o grupo pequeño de convivencia sin algún tipo de sensación deestar integrado. Y tampoco podría enemistarme con las pautas que se imponenpor consenso, en un estado de libertad y aceptación de la pluralidad, lascuales tienen todo el derecho a marcar una dirección. Pero suele sucederque la llave de entrada a esa sensación, el factor determinante para sentiresa integración y dirección, sea una falsedad, o por lo menos algodudosamente positivo. Muchas veces lo que atrae a las mayorías de algunamanera se convierte automáticamente en un peligro. El peligro de olvidar lootro, lo que no se está mirando. Y en relación a esto aparece lamediatización del cuerpo como elemento indispensable en la propagandacontemporánea, una corporalidad impuesta por los medios dominantes delmomento a favor del consumo, es decir un espectáculo. Siempre elespectáculo se basó en la exhibición física, pero cabe preguntarse más aúnde lo que ya lo hemos hecho, cómo funciona hoy en nuestra sociedad.Televisión, supremacía del cuerpo, internet, supremacía del cuerpo,carteles, anuncios, envases, todo los días a toda hora, domésticamente.Cabe preguntarse si las mayorías ven la felicidad como un logro o como unaobligación. Cabe preguntarse si la estética, el modelo de contemplación, lameta o la utopía no se han convertido en herramientas de represión.Repasando estas cosas pensé en el alma, o en la idea de alma, y supuse queuna persona que tiene alma es quién comprende las injusticias de lacorporalidad.Persona que tiene alma, el tópico de este proyecto de fotografía, aparecióentonces como una idea sobre la corporalidad y con la intención deabordarla prescindiendo del impacto o la imposición que aparecen cuando seapela directamente al deseo. Y sobre la premisa de que fotografiar el almaes imposible, existiese o no, apuntaríamos a fotografiar el cuerpo comoelemento significante del alma o su concepto, es decir, revalorizando elretrato, el retrato a secas, en estos tiempos donde la fotografía en granmedida parece haber adoptado el carácter secundario de documentopromocional de fácil circulación para teatralizaciones efímeras yempalagosas. O porque no, podríamos como lo hicieron dos artistas,apuntando posiblemente, también, a signos del alma.En cuanto al desarrollo del proyecto, el cual está en curso, creí oportunoconvocar a artistas iberoamericanos, pensando que ellos inspiran al mundo opor lo menos a algunas personas en el mundo, y son los que llevan adelanteel proceso como una forma de expresión, pero también como una forma deinvestigación. Los artistas iberoamericanos respondieron positivamenteaportando sus obras.Al mismo tiempo convoqué a intelectuales iberoamericanos y noiberoamericanos, creyendo que los pensadores ayudan a comprender el mundo,y en este caso a comprender el tópico del proyecto. La idea es confrontarlos textos con las fotografías. Dieciseis pensadores aportaron susescritos.Por último, convoque a espacios de arte, revistas y medios iberoamericanospara divulgar el proyecto y están respondiendo positivamente.Los objetivos del proyecto son muchos y se van logrando pero sobre todoapuntamos a la recopilación documental del material artístico, losconceptos vertidos, las experiencias de exposición, las divulgacionesperiodísticas, conferencias, comentarios, debates, etc. para procurar unanálisis y obtener el contenido organizado materializándolo en los formatoslibro y video documental en el futuro.

2006 | Série omphalOskepsis
"(...)the navel: a knot of skin on the body's surface, it is a sign of natural reproduction. But is nonetheless a sign, a mark of separation as well as conection, a scar forming the first mark of culture on the body. And the scar is produced by a tool, a cutting tool that, these days, would hardly be recognised as belonging in the category of technology. A peculiar and ambivalent juncture between sex and technology, the navel opens, literally and figurally, on to questions of difference."
Fred Botting in "Sex, machines and navels"
"Durante toda su vida el propietario del ombligo no se fija en el monumento que hay en el centro de su cuerpo, como un transeúnte que pasa diariamente ante un monumento de alguien a caballo sin interesarse nunca en saber a quién representa. Este desinterés por la propia protohistoria tiene método culturalmente, pues los europeos son educados desde antiguo en la prohibición de mirar el ombligo: han de avergonzarse de considerar siquiera posible relacionarse consigo mismos en ese lugar. Al discreto hoyo que hay en mitad del propio cuerpo va sujeto el mandamiento de relacionarse siempre y sin excepción con algo diferente. El ombligo es el signo de nuestro deber de extraversión. Señala sin más hacia delante, al panorama de las cosas y sujetos que están ahí, con y para nosotros."
