Nouadhibou – On South Beach

Posted on by

Invite Keller Williams NouadhibouNouadhibou – Exhibiton Jan Smith

Many of you in Miami accompanied my work and shows from afar, and I’m glad to finally reciprocate this support with a little show. A generous invitation by Keller Williams Realty in Miami means that Nouadhibou will be shown in the United States four months earlier and further south earlier than first planned. Although a bit last minute, this all comes together nicely. Miami is where I used to live and is where I began photography, but I’ve never actually exhibited my work there, and I’m excited to finally share this images with you. The inauguration will be held at Keller Williams’ offices on South Beach, literally right across the street from Art Basel, Friday 3rd of December from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.. The pictures will remain there through January before travelling again. It would be great to see you there! Abrazos, Jan

Zihuatlali, Invitacion

Zihuatlali – Exhibition Jan Smith

El colectivo Still se complace en anunciar la apertura de su más reciente exposición en la Galería Casa de Francia.  Zihuatlali, Arena Fémina es una exposición colectiva de seis artistas mexicanos y franceses presentando obras en fotografía y video que exploran el tema del desierto. La apertura al público será partir del 28 de Octubre del 2010.

El 4 de Noviembre habrá un coctel a las 19:30 horas.

Zihuatlali,  Arena Fémina, es una exposición fotográfica y audiovisual colectiva de seis artistas mexicanos y franceses.  Los artistas exploran desiertos para que a través de ellos recordemos el concepto prehispánico de las tierras que se daban como dote.

En 1435, como novedad entre los pueblos Nahuas, el Rey Nezahualcóyotl le concede a su hija, en ocasión de su matrimonio, una generosa parcela de tierras. Tierras plantadas de flores y de árboles protegidos. Tierras de manantiales y albercas labradas en la roca. Zihuatlali.  Tierra de mujer.

Cincuenta años después del asentamiento de la Colonia, quedan pocas posesiones Nahuas, y las tierras de dote dejan de ser fértiles.  Para las hijas solo quedan los llanos áridos y los desiertos.  Zihuatlali.  Arena Fémina.
