Death Of A Quiet Poet (Video From My Butoh Vlog. Gustavo Thomas. 2012)

Death Of A Quiet Poet (Gustavo Thomas © 2012)

This is part of my Butoh Vlog, part of my daily morning training, and nothing else.

After walking and working with some postures and inner images as a warm up (and always with music), a short choreography emerges, that's what you see in this Butoh vlog.

The music you are listening to in the video is not what I was listening to during the exercise, it was added later.

The Diva and The Poet (A Poem)

María Callas and Pier Paolo Pasolini walking near Nápoles, during the filming of Medea . 1970.*

THE DIVA AND THE POET*

Look at them both walking the dusty streets of the mythical Italy!

Smiling, with happy steps,  
living dreams others would soon shatter 
till they saw them both down, dead. 

She sings poems, shows her whole self off while in pain.  
He sings poetry, and dreams of handsome proletarians.

Oh, their feet are big,
as big as their amazed mouths!

Following this series of videos about the homage to Oscar Liera organized at Foro Luces de Bohemia in Mexico City, in 1997, it's now the turn to show Sergio López participation in it.

(I apologize, once again, to the English speaking followers of this Blog, this is a video only in Spanish) 

In that Round table were Oscar Blancarte, Soledad Ruíz, José Enrique Gorlero, Felipe Galván, Armando Partida and Sergio López.

The Rose (From my Butoh vlog) (Digital Work Over Photograph. By Gustavo Thomas. 2012)

The Rose (From my Butoh vlog)

(Digital Art Over Photograph. By Gustavo Thomas © 2012. All Rights Reserved)

Summer has left me a difficult path in my own work and I haven't had time to edit the videos from my Butoh vlog (and therefore showing them off), but the digital art that surges from them has not stopped.

The flower is an object-subject Kazuo Ohno used to work as part of their own training and as part of his workshops in Yokohama, and his son, Yoshito Ohno, continues to do the same in his own workshops. 

This flower I'm showing here (an artificial rose) was given to me by Yoshito Ohno during a Butoh master class he gave in Montreal dance school last October 2011; the flower is now part of my daily training ... and part of my own art.

The book "Método de Actuación de Antonio González Caballero" (Spanish edition) is now in ebook version at the Kindle Store (2012)

Ebook of "Método de actuación de A. González Caballero" is already at the Kindle store

It has been another long wait but the Spanish edition of my book "Método de Actuación de Antonio González Caballero" is already on sale at the Kindle store in Amazon. This is exactly the same text already published in paperback: 381 pages (more or less, depending of the Kindle app version you use) with all the exercises and "apoyos" from González Caballero's acting method, with direct quotations from the master's voice.

As commonly occur there are minimal changes from the original text, mostly because of the change of format: for example, there are no links in the list of content, but you can easily find any word or sentences in the 'search" window.

The most important and valuable thing is the price, US $ 9.99 (instead of US $20.00 + shipping of the paperback version), and that you can easily download the book to your electronic device (mobile phone, tablet or computer) and start reading and working with it almost immediately.

Here's the link to the Kindle store:

Kindle amazon:  

www.amazon.com/Actuación-Antonio-González-Caballero-ebook/dp/B009HUT5AA

It's time to rest a little bit around this project (around González Caballero's Acting Method) and continue with my personal work.

Hope in no much time I can start the work of the English version of this very important book.
