This weekend with some great friends I have decided to “jump” again to my (so far) “favorite” state California… Actually to Los Angeles for a first time..
Recently my FB signature was that Brazilians know how to enjoy life fully, that American have high level of creativity..they really can create anything out of nothing and sell it!
And since I came, I have traveled quite…and will even more in future…
But being addicted to all kinds of art..I have visited museums, theaters, concerts, galleries etc…in Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Phoenix, Tempe, San Francisco, Sand Diego,Los Angeles, Washington DC… etc…
End…Art is so much valued in USA..all those small and big street full of great, crazy, original,different art… People live it, feel it, smell it..breathe it…
Museums… Today I was in LACMA… Just to go there sit, walk..have a coffee, listen free live jazz in garden…or to visit many free amazing exhibition… Very innovative..from elevators, which are also communicating and becoming piece of art..till sculpture garden…
And thinking sadly about Art in my Country… Museum are closing one by one.. Theater barely surviving.. Paintings…? Only for real admires…
Creativity? There is… but just from the bravest or those which know and realize that.. without art there is nothing…there is no Country at all..
Politicians should be aware of it…or at least be more clever, whatever their aim is…without art they have nothing…
Sometimes I feel so far and so close to that my Country at same time…
“The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.”
