Sobre lo hermoso y lo perverso

"Lo Hermoso y Lo Perverso"
Clase que se imparte en la prepa donde estudié y que trata de todo aquello que puede llegar a tener un tono "malvado" o perverso sin dejar de ser arte.

En la vida existen cosas que suelen ser de ese tipo.

"Me gusta, pero me asusta"

Puede ser que nos sintamos atraidos a lo prohibido.

O que nos encante aquello que tenga un toque siniestro.

Incluso que le encontremos lo virtuoso a lo aterrador.

Los tabúes siempre serán atractivos por ser prohibidos...

Hoy me topé con algunas esculturas que caben perfectamente en esta categoría de Lo Hermoso y lo Perverso.

Sobre instalaciones y su ingenio

Probablemente el día de hoy, no sabría ni qué diablos es una instalación de no haber pasado por ese periodo de 2.5 años acompañado...

Hoy, soy particularmente fan de ellas.

Principalmente porque representan lo que para mí se puede definir como "arte con ingenio" pues combinan una serie de disciplinas que no necesariamente tienen por qué asociarse en un principio [o directamente] con el arte.

Para muestra basta un botón:
