Ciclo Texto, arte y vida | Las meninas y El Quijote: Velázquez, Cervantes y la relación con lo especular

JUEVES 14 DE MAYO, 7:00PM

Letra Urbana y Aluna Art Foundation inauguran mañana Jueves 14 de Mayo a las 7:00pm, el ciclo “TEXTO, ARTE Y VIDA” que revisitará momentos cumbres de la historia de la literatura y el arte universal, así como las vidas de grandes creadores.

Impartidos por Adriana Herrera, PhD, estos cursos analizarán la relación entre lo especular y los juegos hipertextuales, desafiandolas cronologías lineales y buscando esa “inminencia de una revelación” que Borges identificaba con el arte.

“Las Meninas de Velázquez” y “Don Quijote” de Cervantes.

Estas dos obras cumbres con las que se inaugura la visión moderna de la cultura occidental, tienen elementos capaces de transformar nuestra mirada sobre el mundo. ¿Qué tienen en común y por qué ambas creaciones son constantemente mencionadas en el arte y la literatura contemporáneos? ¿Podríamos decir que contienen momentos posmodernos?
