    BUENOS AIRES – MAY 2013 ENG 294 – Capital of Culture Day 1 – Arrival and Coffee We arrive in the morning and walk to the obelisk (r), then go for coffee and media lunas at Café Tortoni – always rated one of the 10 Most Beautiful Cafes in the World – and also manage to find the park where the characters in The Tunnel would often meet. Friday, May 17 May Friday, On Cover (l-r) – Kenny Gilliard, Ashleigh Huffman, Daniel Faulkenberry and Juliane Bullard stand in Plaza Francia with the National Museum of Fine Arts behind them. This was a short walk from the hotel and just across the street from the flea market. EL ATENEO GRAN SPLENDID Day 2 – Exploring the City of Books Day 2 – La Biela and El Ateneo This coffee shop across the green from Saturday, May 18 May Saturday, Recoleta Cemetery is one of the most famous in the city, frequented by celebrities, past and present. Previous page: (l-r) Ashleigh Huffman, Kenny Gilliard, Daniel Faulkenberry and Juliane Bullard walk across the bridge over Avenida Libertador, linking the Recoleta Cemetery area to the law school and the park holding the steel flower, Floralis Generica, which supposedly opens at dawn and closes at dusk – although no one’s actually seen it in action. La Biela – The “Tie Rod” This is a great spot for breakfast or just hanging out for a coffee. You can even sit and have your picture taken with authors Jorge Luis Borges and Bioy Casares. Note the cutout on the chair – it’s a tie rod, a reference to the café’s early days.

  • Destination Report
    Miami , Flori daBuenos Aires, Argentina Overview Introduction Buenos Aires, Argentina, is a wonderful combination of sleek skyscrapers and past grandeur, a collision of the ultrachic and tumbledown. Still, there has always been an undercurrent of melancholy in B.A. (as it is affectionately known by expats who call Buenos Aires home), which may help explain residents' devotion to that bittersweet expression of popular culture in Argentina, the tango. Still performed—albeit much less frequently now—in the streets and cafes, the tango has a romantic and nostalgic nature that is emblematic of Buenos Aires itself. Travel to Buenos Aires is popular, especially with stops in the neighborhoods of San Telmo, Palermo— and each of its colorful smaller divisions—and the array of plazas that help make up Buenos Aires tours. Highlights Sights—Inspect the art-nouveau and art-deco architecture along Avenida de Mayo; see the "glorious dead" in the Cementerio de la Recoleta and the gorgeously chic at bars and cafes in the same neighborhood; shop for antiques and see the tango dancers at Plaza Dorrego and the San Telmo Street Fair on Sunday; tour the old port district of La Boca and the colorful houses along its Caminito street; cheer at a soccer match between hometown rivals Boca Juniors and River Plate (for the very adventurous only). Museums—Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (MALBA: Coleccion Costantini); Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes; Museo Municipal de Arte Hispano-Americano Isaac Fernandez Blanco; Museo Historico Nacional; Museo de la Pasion Boquense (Boca football); one of two tango museums: Museo Casa Carlos Gardel or Museo Mundial del Tango.

La Exposición se enmarca en un programa de investigación del espacio que involucra a la Casa Rosada en si, definiendo a dicho espacio como la primera pieza de la colección del Museo. En 1995, durante la visita de un grupo de argentinos a la Pinacoteca Pianetti (Jesi, Italia) se encontraron unas acuarelas del ingeniero arquitecto Francesco Tamburini (1846-1890), proyectista de las fachadas principales de la Casa de Gobierno y autor de numerosas obras. Estas acuarelas, de gran valor para la arquitectura dibujada, y desconocidas para el público en general, fueron el punto de partida de la Exposición.
