a long december has passed and it is so cold in monterrey...
A long December and there's reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can't remember the last thing that you said as you were leaven'
Now the days go by so fast
And it's one more day up in the canyons
And it's one more night in Hollywood
If you think that I could be forgiven...I wish you would
The smell of hospitals in winter
And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters, but no pearls
All at once you look across a crowded room
To see the way that light attaches to a girl
And it's one more day up in the canyons
And it's one more night in Hollywood
If you think you might come to California...I think you should
Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m.
And talked a little while about the year
I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower,
Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her
And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell my myself
To hold on to these moments as they pass
And it's one more day up in the canyon
And it's one more night in Hollywood
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean...I guess I should

wow greg miller
greg miller has some beautiful portraits in many of his series. these images seduce me into appreciating portraiture as a way to speak of who we are. greg seems to capture not just an interesting subject in itself, but that fascination towards learning about strangers by letting us scrutinize freely their body language and environments.

hans haacke
"Si el arte contribuye entre otras cosas a condicionar nuestro modo de ver el mundo y de configurar las relaciones sociales, entonces hay que tener en cuenta qué imagen del mundo promueve y a qué intereses sirve.” (Hans Haacke) via la vida no imita al arte

to start 2010: caio reisewitz
"Caio Reisewitz plantea una reflexión sobre la disonancia existente entre la evolución de la sociedad y la presencia de la naturaleza en todo este proceso. A través de fotografías de enormes dimensiones, el artista retrata los cambios que sufre su país, analizando fenómenos como el movimiento de los sin tierra o las transformaciones del sistema agrario brasileño". via photoespaña. mas info aqui y aqui.
