AromaVentures: Oaxaca de Juarez, Mexico
In episode 1 of AromaVentures, we explore the unique textile and artisan industry of the surrounding village communities before returning to the heart of Oaxaca's capital city to embrace the history, tradition and markets.
After a vibrant experience of the downtown region, we spent the three days soaking in everything Dia de Muertos offers locals & visitors alike. It was during these nights that we began to find the best foods in the streets and hidden within small hole in the wall restaurants.
Chef Vagabundus scoured the markets for fresh ingredients that we then returned home to cook into our first ever recipes being shared with our subscribing viewers. The four recipes we are showing you are: Enchiladas, Braised Chicken, Tacos al Pastor, and Chile Chocolate Mousse.
Together we can now share the first location experience by using all five human senses in an engaging entertainment platform.
Welcome to AromaVentures. Let's get the journey started!

American Art - 5 Mesoamerica: Olmec, Teotihuacan, Veracruz and Zapotec
Fifth video about the American Art serie. Any doubt? Send me a message.
Historia del Arte:
Land of the Art:
The Art in the American continent is divided in three main sides: North America, Mesoamerica and South America. The amerindians emigrated from Asia to America through the Bering strait in the last glaciation.
Mesoamerican cultures developed and reached a high grade of civilization. They were farmers and built cities, pyramid temples and calendars. They are the Olmecs, the people of Teotihuacan, the people of Veracruz, the Zapotecs, Mayans, Toltecs, Mixtecs, Huastecs, Aztecs and the people of Central America and Caribbean.
Origins: first human rests found in lake Tepexpan. Pyramid of Cuicuilco, part of ceremonial center in a city.
Olmec: first culture in Mesoamerica. Probably come from Pacific Ocean. Most important archaeological sites in La Venta, Tres Zapotes and Cerro de las Mesas. Juxtlahuaca caves have paintings in the rocks. Man with a long black cloak and a headdress, covered with jaguar hide. Serpent. Jaguar. Pyramid of La Venta. Jaguar is part of their iconography, represented by the mouth. Jaguar Child. Colossal Heads, probably for ceremonial or commemorative purposes. They used jadeite. Among the selected sculptures there are a Jadeite head, Jaguar mosaic, Offering 4 of La Venta, Lord of Limes, Seated Jaguar, Figure 34, Uxpanapa fighter (2 images), Atlihuayan figure, Tlapacoya figures (2 images), Jaguar crying, Seated man, Stele 1 of El Baúl (with similar style to egyptian reliefs!), Stele 2 of La Venta, Altar 4 and Altar 5 and a Ceremonial axe. About the Altars, they represent a man exiting the mouth of a jaguar, that is, exiting the darkness to the sun.
Teotihuacan: one of the bigger cities. The origins are still unknown. Great ceremonial center. They adored the sun and the moon. Among the most important gods, there are Tlaloc, Quetzalcoatl, Chalchiuhtlicue, Huehueteotl and Tezcatlipoca. Avenue of the Dead, Citadel, Temple of the Feathered Serpent, Pyramid of the Sun, Pyramid of the Moon, Palace of Quetzalpapalotl, paintings of Tetitla, Atetelco, Tepantitla and La Ventilla. The Temple of the Feathered Serpent is very interesting. It has seven bodies and is decorated with sculptures of Quetzalcoatl and Tlaloc. The paintings are in the walls. It is very nice the one of Tetitla, the great goddess, and also the Tlaloc representation in Tepantitla. Among the sculptures there are a Marker for Ballgame, a Tlaloc sculpture with the mouth opened, a Cuauhxicalli (used to carry the hearts in the sacrifices, something the aztecs will use too), the Mask of Malinaltepec (a serpentine mask associated to the cult to the dead, spirit that goes from the mask to the individual), a Figure and a few Ceramics with three legs, or Tripod Ceramics.
Veracruz: here there are various cultures. The classic Veracruz culture develped first, and among them it was the Remojadas culture. Later, in the 1000 CE aproximatelly, in the area of El Tajín, the Totonacs developed their culture. In El Tajín there are 11 ballgame courts. The ballgame was a religious ritual, although it is not sure if the victorious or the losers were the sacrified. It symbolized the victory of Huitzilopochtli over his sister, since she tried to kill their mother, so Huitzilopochtli couldn’t be born and he wouldn’t be the most powerful god. The palmas is something with a not clear meaning, but probably they were votive objects, related with the ballgame. The relief is in the southern ballgame and it represents the sacrifice of a player. Finally, the Totonacs did the Pyramid of the Niches, composed by seven platforms with a decoration composed of 365 niches and geometric details, and a central stair. The Temple of the Columns has reliefs of the conquests of Trece Conejo, a ruler of El Tajín. About the Remojadas culture I added a Ceremonial axe, a Terracotta chief, a Deer (or dog) with wheels, Caritas sonrientes (very curious, with jaguar details in the mouths) and Figures swinging.
Zapotecs: they lived in Monte Albán, Valley of Oaxaca. Defensive. Since year 1000, this place becomes a necropolis. In the Temple of the Dancers there are reliefs of people that seems to be dancing, and some appear with the organs outside the body, so maybe it had a ceremonial function. Sunken Patio. Ballgame court. Observatory. South Platform. In the North Platform there are tombs with very nice items. Cocijo. Urn of tomb 77. Paintings in tomb 104 and 105. Mask of bat god. Golden pectoral of Mictlantecuhtli from tomb 7. In Mitla there are fantastic decorations and in Lambityeco there are more tombs.

Archaeological Site of Chavin / History and Origin
The archaeological site of Chavin gave its name to the culture that developed between 1500 and 300 B.C. in this high valley of the Peruvian Andes. This former place of worship is one of the earliest and best-known pre-Columbian sites. Its appearance is striking, with the complex of terraces and squares, surrounded by structures of dressed stone, and the mainly zoomorphic ornamentation.
The archaeological site of Chavin gave its name to the culture that developed between the 15th and the 5th century BC in this high valley of the Peruvian Andes, in the province of Huari, department of Ancash. Chavin was a ceremonial and pilgrimage centre for the Andean religious world and hosted people from different latitudes, distances and languages, becoming an important centre of ideological, cultural and religious convergence and dissemination around a cult spread over a wide territory of the Andes, as far as the north, central and south coasts, the northern highlands and high jungle of Peru.
Chavin is one of the earliest and best known pre-Columbian sites and represents the more important expression of the arts and decorative and construction techniques of its time. The ceremonial and cultural nature of the site is evident in its architectural, technological and symbolic creation, which is characterized by coated quarried stone buildings and artificial terraces around plazas, containing an internal gallery system with an intricate network of vents and drains unprecedented in South America. The buildings and plazas were decorated with lush anthropomorphic and zoomorphic symbolic iconography of extraordinary aesthetic synthesis, carved in bas-relief on tombstones, columns, beams and monolithic stone sculptures. The Chavin Lanzón, the Raimondi Stela, the Tello Obelisk, the Falconidae Portico, the Circular Plaza and the tenon heads, among others, are evidence of the outstanding and monumental Chavin lithic art. All of these features make the archaeological site a unique monument of universal significance.
The Chavin Archaeological Site, eponym of one of the ancient civilizations of South America, is an exceptional example of the architectural, technological and symbolic creations of the early pre-Columbian societies in the Peruvian Andes. Its appearance is breath-taking, with a series of terraces and squares, with a complex system of internal galleries, and decorated with anthropomorphic and zoomorphic iconographic elements of extraordinary beauty. It was an important centre of ideological, cultural and religious convergence and dissemination around a cult spread over a wide territory of the Andes.
¿Qué diferencia a los aztecas de los mayas? - CuriosaMente 68
La mexica o azteca y la maya, son dos culturas muy diferentes, aunqe en muchos medios masivos las suelen confundir o mezclar (incluso hasta con la inca, en una cultura genérica a la que se ha dado en llamar mayincatec).

Campeche, Mexico
The city of Campeche, the capital of the state of Campeche, is located in the southern Gulf Coast region, 387 km (240 mi) northeast of Villahermosa, Tabasco, and 177 km (110 mi) southwest of Merida, Yucatan. The climate is tropical, with an average year-round temperature of 26º C (79º F). The city gets rainfall during the summer and autumn.
At this old commercial port, a giant wall still stands that once protected the city from pirate attacks in the 17th and 18th centuries. In this walled city, you'll see two forts (one of which houses a museum), seven bulwarks and two main gates (the Sea Gate and Land Gate). Thanks to these monuments and the spectacular buildings in the Historic Center, such as the Cathedral and the Templo de Guadalupe, the UNESCO declared Campeche a World Heritage Site in 2002. Without question, Campeche has one of the most well preserved historic centers in the nation.
During your stay, we recommend that you visit the Museo de la Cultura Maya, housed in the San Miguel Fort, and the Museo de las Estelas Mayas, which exhibits regional art in the San Pedro Bulwark. At night, don't miss the fascinating light and sound show at the Fort of San Jose El Alto. After the show, you can take a walk along the Historic Center's cobblestone streets, where you'll see a wide variety of stores, restaurants, bars and cafes. You can also take a stroll down the beautiful 3.5-km (2-mi) boardwalk, which leads to a tourist walkway, parks and a bicycle track.
In Campeche's surrounding areas, you can enjoy an outdoor adventure at the Ria Celestun Biosphere Reserve, which is the habitat of hundreds of pink flamingoes. In addition, you can check out Calakmul, one of the largest biosphere reserves in the nation, which also has an interesting Mayan archaeological zone. Calakmul is a great spot to go camping, mountain biking and hiking.
During your visit to Campeche, don't forget to try the tamales with chaya leaves and the pan de cazon (tortillas stuffed or layered with shark, beans and salsa), among other regional Mayan cuisine. For all that and much more, Campeche is an excellent destination to discover history, traditions and exciting adventures.

La invención concreta. Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros. MNCARS. 2013.

La exposición La invención concreta centra su atención en el desarrollo de la abstracción geométrica en Latinoamérica, abarcando un marco cronológico que se inicia en los años treinta y concluye en la década de los setenta del siglo XX.
Aunque este tipo de arte abstracto se desarrolló inicialmente en Europa, algunos artistas sudamericanos lo asumieron como lenguaje de un futuro cosmopolita y progresista desde las modernas ciudades de Montevideo, Buenos Aires, São Paulo, Río de Janeiro y Caracas. La abstracción geométrica se convierte así en un vehículo de expresión de la emergencia de un continente que exploraba a mediados del siglo XX nuevas ideas políticas y culturales.
El relato expositivo se estructura a partir de la idea de intención artística, considerando las obras como manifiestos visuales capaces de expresar diversas concepciones sobre lo que puede y debe ser el arte y el rol que este desempeña en la sociedad. Muchos de los autores de estos trabajos se ocuparon de escribir las teorías que mantenían sobre estas cuestiones en artículos, revistas y polémicos manifiestos en los que se proclamaban las características de un nuevo lenguaje artístico que, a pesar de sus aspiraciones universales, se dotaba de un significado diferente en relación con cada contexto.
Las obras que configuran esta exposición se agrupan al margen de su lugar y año de creación, atendiendo a criterios de afinidad de los autores desde los cuales entender que la cercanía en el uso del lenguaje artístico no se traduce necesariamente en una finalidad común respecto al objetivo de su arte. Todos estos trabajos proceden de la Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, una de las más importantes en lo que al arte contemporáneo latinoamericano se refiere, con la que el Museo Reina Sofía ha establecido un convenio de colaboración.
