HAPPINESS, PAIN, MAGIC, BEAUTY … WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?
(Oct. 15, 2004) “I do not believe in inspiration, but in sensitivity. In front of an empty canvas, interpretations of what I have seen and experienced arise from my memories. It’s nothing more than that.” (Lukó de Rokha)
The exhibition “Alegría y Dolor, Magia y Belleza del Universo (Happiness and Pain, Magic and Beauty of the Universe)” presents a visceral journey into the life and the mind of the Chilean artist Lukó de Rokha.

“DON’T WORRY OFFICER, WE’RE MARRIED”
When Language Fights Back
(Oct. 15, 2004) Jacques Derrida died last week. The French philosopher spent his stellar career saying extraordinary things about language in extraordinary ways. In a rather hubristic nutshell, Derrida’s thinking goes that all meaning is subject to language, and the meanings of language are constantly in flux. In any utterance, therefore, there will be a multiplicity of meanings, many of which the author of the utterance never intended.
