    marcos viñals bassols ! Marcos Viñals Bassols Scenographer - Art director M +32 475 54 97 30 E [email protected] S marcosvbskype W www.marcosvb.com CURRICULUM VITÆ Born in Barcelona in 1967, Marcos Viñals Bassols graduated with a Master of Fine Arts degree in scenography at the Superior National School of Visual Arts of La Cambre in Brussels, Belgium. During the past 25 years he created scenic designs for theater and show in Belgium, France, The Netherlands, and abroad, working for several famous directors like Franz Marijnen or Dirk Decloedt. In 1998 he received the Belgian Theatre Award of the best scenographer. Marcos’ unique vision enabled him to be nominated for this award on four other occasions. Marcos expresses his visual poetry and his meaningful interpretations by creating fascinating scenic environments for large scale events and exhibitions. Some of them were awarded with the Silver Benelux Event Awards, and two Silver Awards at the 2014 European Best Event Awards. Marcos has been collaborating as a scenographer in various occasions with Franco Dragone, for whom he has created scenic designs like for Philip Kirkorov’s musical show at the Kremlin Theatre in Moscow and on tour, or The Land of Legends in Turkey, a large-scale Family Entertainment Center, where he designed a monumental poetic gate that became the set for Dragone’s permanent show. As a free lance scenographer and art director, Marcos created, designed and directed several shows in different countries of the Middle-East, like the Bayan Palace Show, the opening ceremony of the Kuwait Museums, or TV sets for musical shows like Hala Layali Febrayer, in the presence of His Highness the Emir of Kuwait and broadcasted live on the national television.

  • Unlevel Playing Fields: Institutional Inequality in College Basketball
    unlevel playing fields institutional inequality in college basketball brian powell February 2020 Introduction Inspired by investigations into institutional inequality in academic hiring and publishing, this report examines the distribution of colleges attended by NBA draftees to determine if certain institutions are disproportionately more likely to produce successful players. I explore two types of questions: 1. inequality How do athletics fare with respect to academics in terms of institutional concentration? 2. quality Does attending a “top school” translate into higher performance at the professional level? Two economic metrics - the Gini coefficient and the CR10 - are used to quantify inequality, while NBA performance is measured using the advanced stat called Value Over Replacement Player (VORP). Overall, my findings suggest that athletics are significantly less institutionally concentrated than academics, but that athletic concentration has undergone an important shift upwards since 2006. I hypothesize that this is due to a rule change in the NBA prohibiting high school students from directly entering the draft. Thus, an inquiry into the fairness of college athletics has led to an insight into an unintended consequence of a rule designed to protect younger players. The effect is a growing concentration of power among a fewer number of elite schools. Considering the financial benefits of boasting a top basketball program and the many controversies afflicting the NCAA and its constituents, this rise in inequality may provide evidence that college basketball offers yet another example of the rich-getting-richer world we increasingly inhabit. Finally, despite this rise in concentration, I show that top schools contribute only modest effects to overall player performance.
