O casamento de Marta Minujín

Sylvia Colombo

 

“Se você vive no absurdo, o tempo passa mais rápido”, diz Marta Minujín ao descer de sua carruagem de noiva, esta noite, diante do Malba (Museo de Arte Latino-americano de Buenos Aires). A maior artista plástica popular da Argentina completou 70 anos, e resolveu comemorar “casando-se” com a arte, em mais uma de suas performances artísticas. “Só que em vez de lua de mel, vou à Lua, como todos os dias… Vou e volto”.

Foi com frases assim que Minujín brindou o público que foi cantar “Parabéns à Você” diante do museu, onde concedeu breves entrevistas aos jornalistas. Chegou de vestido branco, acompanhada por damas-de-honra que usavam seu óculos colorido tipo persiana, criado nos anos 60.

Não é à toa que Minujín resolveu comemorar seu aniversário na rua. Sua obra está bastante vinculada à vida da cidade. Em 1978, em plena ditadura militar, a artista teve a coragem de montar seu “Obelisco de Pan Dulce”, uma grande versão debochada do maior monumento de Buenos Aires, que depois ficou na rua para ser devorado.

Minujín se especializou em “happenings” e performances. Quando foram homenageá-la, em 2011, na grande retrospectiva de sua carreira, os curadores tiveram dificuldades para recriar suas obras, muitas delas a artista deixou que fossem consumidas pelo fogo. Seu primeiro “happening” foi em 1963, quando chamou amigos para verem queimar seu trabalho. A noite terminou em confusão, com a intervenção dos bombeiros e da polícia.

Entre outros trabalhos importantes de Minujín estão “El Pago de la Deuda Externa Argentina con Maíz” (o pagamento da dívida externa com milho), ao lado de Andy Warhol, e o divertido “Minuphone”, originalmente realizado em Nova York em 1967. A princípio, era uma cabine telefônica clássica. Só que, uma vez dentro dela, a pessoa começa a ser atormentada por sua própria imagem vista numa tela de televisão no chão, enquanto, ao marcar números, ouve sons e vê luzes diferentes.

“Me caso com a arte e me diverte a ideia de que já não tenho mais muito tempo”, declarou, antes de soprar as velinhas do imenso bolo colorido para os convidados. Em tempos de tanto mau humor causado por cisões políticas, a comemoração de Minujín mostra que a Argentina não é só o Fla-Flu ideológico. Fazem falta mais artistas como ela.

  2. I precisely wanted to say thanks all over again. I’m not certain the things I would have made to happen without the actual secrets revealed by you directly on such theme. It previously was an absolute traumatic circumstance in my opinion, but taking a look at the professional way you solved the issue took me to weep for happiness. I’m just happier for this help and then believe you are aware of an amazing job that you’re providing training most people thru your blog post. Most probably you’ve never encountered all of us.

  18. Thank you for some other informative site. Where else may I am getting that kind of information written in such an ideal approach? I have a challenge that I’m simply now operating on, and I’ve been at the look out for such information.

  30. Doubledigit upside to start, with room for a significant rerating as growth continues.The wealth, asset, and investment management industries are, at their very core, built on the premise that markets are inefficientduvetica ??? http://www.advseptech.com/duvetica-???.html If every security (be it debt, equity, or anything in between) was always priced at its “true” (not a subjective truth, but an objective one) value, there would be no point in investing, for the securities you sought to invest in would always be fairly priced. But, history has shown time and again that the global capital markets are anything but efficient. And it is these inefficiencies that have created untold billions in wealth around the world. In this article, we wish to highlight another such inefficiency, this time taking place in France.
