This 14th Spanish Architecture and Urbanism Biennial aims to place the accent on the notion of living as what underpins architecture and makes cities more human. This is explained not only through the various functional briefs, but also through the quality and the attributes of the spaces. More Human, More Living shows the recognition of a specialized jury to the best works of architecture and urbanism carried out in Spain and abroad by Spanish architects during the years 2016 and 2017. The exhibition also shows the recognition of research works linked to industrial development of the sector and the dissemination of architecture and research. The exhibitors of this show, as characters speaking from their own voice, bring the visitor the most human image of each awarded work. The authors share their stories while the visitors observe how people inhabit it, and how the work is capable of humanizing the place that it inhabits.

La Bienal Española de Arquitectura y Urbanismo, en su XIV edición, busca repensar la idea de vivir, situándola en el centro de la arquitectura y la humanización de las ciudades. Esta es una idea que no solo se explica por su funcionalidad, sino por la calidad, las formas y las características de los espacios. Más habitar, más humanizar muestra el reconocimiento de un jurado especializado a las mejores obras de arquitectura y urbanismo realizadas, en nuestro país y en el extranjero, por arquitectos españoles durante los años 2016 y 2017. Asimismo, se muestra el reconocimiento a los mejores trabajos vinculados al desarrollo industrial del sector, a la divulgación de la arquitectura y a la investigación. Los expositores de esta muestra, a modo de personajes con voz propia, acercan al visitante la imagen más humana de cada obra premiada. Sus autores nos hablan de ella mientras podemos observar cómo las personas la habitan y cómo la obra es capaz de humanizar el lugar donde se instala.

BY JOSÉ RAMÓN ALONSO LOREA

As a nod to Havana’s 500th anniversary, leading art historian José Ramón Alonso Lorea takes us on an illustrated voyage to the 1940s, when Cuba’s modern art movement was consolidated. The work of these artists was widely promoted by arts patron María Luisa Gómez Mena, founder of Galería del Prado, pivotal in garnering international recognition for Cuban contemporary art. The leading artists among this group were Amelia Peláez, Fidelio Ponce, and Carlos Enríquez(the first generation), and René Portocarrero, Cundo Bermúdez, Mariano Rodríguez, Mario Carreño, Luis Martínez Pedro and Felipe Orlando (the second generation). The continued productivity of both generations fostered the consolidation of a modern Cuban art and defined the creation of a regional and luminous oeuvre, which has since been referred to by critics as the “Escuela de La Habana”.

Con motivo de la celebración del 500 aniversario de La Habana, el historiador José Ramón Alonso Lorea, nos guiará por un recorrido ilustrado a la década de 1940, periodo clave en la consolidación del arte contemporáneo en Cuba. Los principales artistas de este movimiento fueron Amelia Peláez, Fidelio Ponce y Carlos Enríquez (de la primera generación), y René Portocarrero, Cundo Bermúdez, Mariano Rodríguez, Mario Carreño, Luis Martínez Pedro y Felipe Orlando (de la segunda). El trabajo de estos artistas fue ampliamente promovido por la mecenas María Luisa Gómez Mena, fundadora de la Galería del Prado. La productividad continuada de ambas generaciones fomentó la consolidación del arte cubano moderno y definió la creación de una obra regional y luminosa, que desde entonces ha sido referida por los críticos como la “Escuela de La Habana”.

BY ENRIQUE DEL RISCO

The prolific Cuban writer Enrique del Risco debuts as a novelist with Turcos en la niebla, a work awarded in 2019 with the XX Unicaja Novel Prize Fernando Quiñones (Spain). It is a novel about collective and personal shipwrecks and how to survive them. The author’s story, a drama that does not give up humor, is intertwined with that of three of his friends (an art critic, a hustler and an Argentine psychologist) to offer a fresh of the contemporary life of a Latin community based on the banks of the Hudson River and the recent political and cultural history of the American continent. They will accompany Enrique in a pleasant conversation, the Spanish writer and critic Eduardo Lago, a columnist in El País, and the Cuban musician Paquito D’Rivera, neighbor of the neighborhood where the characters of the novel unfold.

El prolífico escritor cubano, Enrique del Risco, debuta como novelista con Turcos en la niebla, obra galardonada en 2019 con el XX Premio Unicaja de Novela Fernando Quiñones (España). Se trata de una novela sobre naufragios colectivos y personales y cómo sobrevivir a ellos. El relato del autor, un drama que no renuncia al humor, se entrelaza con el de tres de sus amigos (un crítico de arte, un buscavidas y una psicóloga argentina) para ofrecer un fresco de la vida contemporánea de una comunidad latina afincada a orillas del río Hudson y de la reciente historia política y cultural del continente americano. Acompañarán a Enrique en una amena conversación, el escritor y crítico español Eduardo Lago, columnista en el El País, y el músico cubano Paquito D’Rivera, vecino del barrio donde se desenvuelven los personajes de la novela.

In 1987 the poets Carlos Edmundo de Ory and Allen Ginsberg met at a poetry performance organized by Gas Station cultural center and Columbia University. The Argentine painter Osvaldo Gomariz introduced to both poets, among whom an immediate affinity emerges. From this friendship has resulted the Ory’s book ANGEL without a permit, where Ginsberg collaborates in the translation into English. Later, Ory translates into Spanish some Ginsberg’s poems in the Revista Atlántica. Through the existing bibliography, the voices of the witnesses in the meetings and the catalogue preserved in the Carlos Edmundo de Ory Foundation, placed in Cádiz (Spain), we’ll tell the public this little known link between the Beat Generation and the spanish poetry. Participants: Salvador García, director of the Fundación Carlos Edmundo de Ory, and Eduardo Lago, writter.

En 1987 los poetas Carlos Edmundo de Ory y Allen Ginsberg se conocen en un recital organizado por el centro cultural Gas Station y la Universidad de Columbia. El pintor argentino Osvaldo Gomariz presenta a ambos poetas, entre los que surge una afinidad inmediata. De esta amistad nace el libro de Ory Sin permiso de ser ángel, en cuya traducción al inglés colaborará Ginsberg. Más tarde, Ory traduce al español algunos poemas de Ginsberg en la Revista Atlántica. A través de la bibliografía existente, los testimonios sonoros de los testigos de los encuentros y los fondos conservados en la Fundación Carlos Edmundo de Ory, situada en Cádiz (España), contaremos al público este vínculo poco conocido entre la Beat Generation y la poesía española. Participantes: Salvador García, director de la Fundación Carlos Edmundo de Ory, y Eduardo Lago, escritor.

Film enthusiasts will have the opportunity to see the award winners of the most relevant film festival in Central America. Historically, Central American countries produced fewer films than their Northern and Southern neighbors, a fact that has changed in the last fifteen years thanks to initiatives like Icaro Film Festival. Held annually, this event gives emerging filmmakers the opportunity to tell their own stories.

Los cinéfilos tendrán la oportunidad de ver las películas ganadoras del certamen más importante de Centroamérica. Históricamente, los países centroamericanos producían menos que sus vecinos del norte y del sur, un hecho que ha cambiado en los últimos quince años gracias a iniciativas como Icaro Film Festival.

A desperate group of people wait at a rundown Cuban transit station for the next bus to arrive. The problem is, it never shows up. While a number of busses pass by the station, and others that are either full or at the end of the line stop by, it soon becomes obvious that the bus everyone was waiting for has left them high and dry. While one of the would- be passengers, Emilio, uses his downtime to win the affections of the beautiful Jacqueline, most of the rest decide that if they’re stuck without anywhere to go, they might as well make the station a better place to wait, and they begin forming a plan to turn the decrepit bus terminal into a showplace that people would look forward to visiting.

Los pasajeros colapsan una terminal de autobuses de un pueblo cubano porque todos los vehículos pasan llenos y no recogen viajeros. Para poder emprender el viaje, todos se implican en la reparación del único transporte destartalado que queda en la terminal. Una experiencia en la que cada uno va a descubrir lo mejor de sí mismo.

Rafael Azcona would have liked to be the invisible man, however, his name is engraved in the history of Spanish cinema. As described by those who knew him, Azcona was a magnificent writer, with a sharp social irony. He began writing stories in the satirical magazine La Codorniz, where he already demonstrated his enormous talent to criticize, always in a humorous way, the current state of values. The documentary Imprescindibles, directed by journalist Fernando Olmeda, pays tribute to this brilliant screenwriter and shows his most human version through testimonies from people who knew and worked with him.

A Rafael Azcona le hubiese gustado ser el hombre invisible, no obstante, su nombre está irremediablemente grabado en la historia del cine español. Tal y como lo describen quienes lo conocieron, Azcona fue un magnifico escritor, de afilada ironía social. Empezó escribiendo relatos en la revista satírica La Codorniz, donde ya demostró su enorme talento para criticar, siempre en clave de humor, la escala de valores vigente. El documental Imprescindibles, dirigido por el periodista Fernando Olmeda, rinde homenaje al genial guionista y muestra su versión más humana a través de testimonios de las personas que le conocieron y/o trabajaron con él.

The boy successively maintains relations with the four daughters of his protector, without knowing very well which of them he is in love with.

For Moncho, it’s an idyllic year: he starts school, he has a wonderful teacher, he makes a friend in Roque, he begins to figure out some of the mysteries of Eros, and, with his older brother, a budding saxophone player, he makes a trip with the band from their town in Galicia. But it’s also the year that the Spanish Republic comes under fire from Fascist rebels. Moncho’s father is a Republican as is the aging teacher, Don Gregorio. As sides are drawn and power falls clearly to one side, the forces of fear, violence, and betrayal alter profoundly what should be the pleasure of coming of age.

Situada en 1936, Don Gregorio enseñará a Moncho con dedicación y paciencia toda su sabiduría en cuanto a los conocimientos, la literatura, la naturaleza, y hasta las mujeres. Pero el trasfondo de la amenaza política subsistirá siempre, especialmente cuando Don Gregorio es atacado por ser considerado un enemigo del régimen fascista. Así se irá abriendo entre estos dos amigos una brecha, traída por la fuerza del contexto que los rodea.

Pieces of New York is an intimate film, the third piece of a trilogy that aims to study the creative process. It is a love letter to New York, a place where many artists converge with the same purpose, to obtain from their art a personal realization. At the same time, pieces of New York is a reflection on how the city has changed using images filmed in super 8mm in the 70s by the director’s grandfather, who could not dedicate himself to his passion, filmmaking, and where the director compares her own Work with his, reflecting on her concerns and trying to guess her grandfather´s.

Documental creativo de ensayo, una pieza intimista donde se presenta a diferentes artistas que exponen sus miedos e inquietudes, su proceso creativo y la capacidad del creador para renunciar a todo por su arte.

First feature film by a director who, in a highly autobiographical tone, narrates the vicissitudes and confusion of a woman from Madrid in the most degraded area of New York. Her charm lies in the fresh nature with which she develops various anecdotes that make up a somewhat scattered story.

Primer largometraje de una realizadora que, en un tono marcadamente autobiográfico, narra las peripecias y el desconcierto de una madrileña en la zona más degradada de Nueva York. Su principal encanto reside en la fresca naturalidad con que desarrolla las diversas anécdotas que componen una historia un tanto dispersa.
