About Me

Para hablar un poco de mi, he de acercarme a ustedes con una cita de un gran artista y tejedor de sueños sin paralelo, un extracto de su texto “De lo Espiritual al Arte.

Paso a citar: “Los períodos en que el arte no tiene un representante de altura, son períodos de decadencia espiritual. Las almas caen constantemente de secciones superiores a otras inferiores y todo el triángulo parece estar detenido.

En estos tiempos mudos y ciegos, los hombres parecen dar una importancia exclusiva al éxito eterno, se preocupan sólo de los bienes materiales y celebran como una gran proeza el progreso técnico que sólo sirve y sólo puede servir al cuerpo.

Las pocas almas que no se hunden en el sueño y sienten un oscuro deseo de vida espiritual, de saber y progreso, se lamentan desolados en el medio del grosero coro de materialismo.

Pero a pesar de toda ceguera, a pesar del caos y de la carrera desafortunada, el triángulo espiritual se mueve en la realidad, despacio pero con seguridad y fuerza indómita, hacia adelante y arriba.”

English translation:

In order to get to know me, I will let you read a quote of a book called: "Concerning the Spiritual in Art", from a great artist:

"The periods in which art has no noble champion, during
which the true spiritual food is wanting, are periods of
retrogression in the spiritual world.

Men attribute to these blind and dumb periods a special value, for
they judge them by outward results, thinking only of material
well-being. They hail some technical advance, which can help
nothing but the body, as a great achievement. Real spiritual
gains are at best under-valued, at worst entirely ignored.
The solitary visionaries are despised or regarded as abnormal and eccentric.

Those who are not wrapped in lethargy and who feel
vague longings for spiritual life and knowledge and progress, cry
in harsh chorus, without any to comfort them. The night of the
spirit falls more and more darkly.

But despite all this confusion, this chaos, this wild hunt for
notoriety, the spiritual triangle, slowly but surely, with
irresistible strength, moves onwards and upwards. "
