Museo Mario Testino Presents “Geografía De La Diferencia” Exhibition by the Peruvian Artist Philippe Gruenberg PRESS RELEASE MATE - MUSEO MARIO TESTINO PRESENTS “GEOGRAFÍA DE LA DIFERENCIA” EXHIBITION BY THE PERUVIAN ARTIST PHILIPPE GRUENBERG MATE - Museo Mario Testino presents “Geografía de la Diferencia”, solo exhibition by the Peruvian artist Philippe Gruenberg, which opened to the public on Wednesday, April 8, 2015. Thanks to the partnership between the prestigious MATE and Delfina Foundation, Gruenberg participated in an artist residency program between July and September 2014 in the city of London. This new institutional alliance aims to promote cultural exchange between Peru and the United Kingdom, allowing a Peruvian artist to perform an annual residency at the Delfina Foundation and then present an exhibition at the Museum as a result of its investigation. Founded in 2007, the Delfina Foundation provides opportunities for curators, writers and artists to develop their practice, explore cultural connections, and make collabora- tions with colleagues, communities and institutions. To date, it has received nearly 100 professionals in the field of arts over 24 countries. In “Geografía de la Diferencia”, Gruenberg highlights the various configurations and construction dispu- tes territorial urban space and its place in the minds of citizens. The artist exhibits, among other pieces, a group of images documenting the transfer of the palm trees of an oasis in the desert of Ica to a private area in the bay of Lima and a video of the community of surfers from Costa Verde and its environment. In the artist’s words: “The city and its different construction processes, show us our own building process as individuals and collectively. The city defines us both as individuals, society and the right to decide which city we want, is certainly something worth fighting for. “ The exhibition “Geografía de la Diferencia” has been possible thanks to the support of Phorma Inmobiliaria and the company Multivisón. The entrance fee is S / .3.00 and hours are Tuesday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 8:00 pm The exhibition will last until July 26 in MATE - Mario Testino Museum, located at Av .

  • Before the Met Gala, Mingling at the Mark by Dan Stapleton
    May 5, 2015 Before the Met Gala, Mingling at the Mark By Dan Stapleton The Mark Hotel on 77th St. is a popular spot for celebrities to get ready just before the Met Gala. Here, Karen Elson.Credit Kirsten Luce for The New York Times “Fashion people and celebrities feel liberated here,” said Izak Senbahar, the owner of the Mark hotel, as attendees of the annual Costume Institute Gala mingled in his lobby on Monday afternoon. “They feel like they can be themselves.” Mr. Senbahar appeared to be correct. On one side of the room, Usher cracked jokes with his entourage and greeted industry insiders. Near the front door, Uma Thurman blew kisses to friends and acquaintances as they passed by. In a quiet corner, Bill Nighy pored over a script. Even the few noncelebrity guests who had managed to secure reservations at the Mark on gala day seemed comfortable; in the middle of the lobby, a Japanese tourist had fallen asleep in an orange chair designed by Paul Mathieu. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/07/fashion/before-the-met-gala-mingling-at-the-mark.html?_r=1 Although the Mark is not officially affiliated with the Met Gala, in recent years it has become the preferred accommodation for many of the event’s high-profile celebrities — including the Vogue editor Anna Wintour, who reserves one of its largest suites — as its location on East 77th Street and its proximity to the Metropolitan Museum of Art make it a practical option. On Monday, the crowd ebbed and flowed throughout the afternoon as guests excused themselves to go upstairs and get dressed.
