KAREN KNORR BELLAS FOTOGRAFIAS

BIOGRAPHY
Karen Knorr was born in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, raised in San Juan Puerto Rico, and educated in Paris and London. She has lived in England since the 1970s creating a large body of work that has developed a critical and playful dialogue with photography. Her themes range from investigating the patriarchal values of the English upper classes to addressing the role of animals and their representation in art. Using photography to explore cultural traditions, from the gentlemen's clubs of Saint James to the luxuriant interiors of Indian palaces, Knorr's work reaches out to engage conceptual art, visual culture, and feminism.
From the 1980's onwards, Knorr's work has been increasingly engaged with examining issues of power that underlie cultural heritage. This is the principal theme of her work but one that lies subtly under the visual richness and inventiveness of her images. Knorr's photographs satisfy many of the requisites of traditional photography which address the surface appearance of a species or place, but then move to a paradoxical space where they begin to question the overt assumptions of the picture's content.
In "India Song", her most recent work, Knorr's photographs engage two formal constants - first the insertion by digital means of the animal subject(s) within the consistently frontal interior photograph and secondly the pose or action expressed. Each finished photograph is both a mystery and a fable – referencing both the vast tradition of picturing animals in art along with the western appreciation/appropriation of eastern culture and form.
Like the pioneering early photographers who found in India a wealth of exotic subject matter, Knorr celebrates the visual richness found in the myths and stories of northern India using sacred and secular sites to highlight caste, femininity and its relationship with the animal world. She considers men's space (mardana) and women's space (zanana) in Mughal and Rajput architecture be it in palaces, mansions, or mausoleums. These interiors are meticulously photographed with a large format analogue camera. Knorr's own photographs of live animals are then inserted into the diverse rooms and sites, fusing high resolution digital with analogue photography. The results create original and stunning images that reinvent the Panchatantra (an ancient Indian collection of animal fables) for the 21st century and further blur the boundaries between reality and illusion.
Although widely exhibited in Europe and India , "India Song" will be Karen Knorr's first solo show in the United States. This past October, the work was nominated for the 2012 Deutsche Börse Photography Prize - Europe's most prestigious award "for a living photographer who has made the most significant contribution to the medium of photography over the past year".

LAS TRES PARTES ESENCIALES EN NUESTRO ROSTRO. PELO, CEJAS , BOCA; 1ª.EL PELO. ES EL MARCO POR TANTO NO DEBE DE ESTAR BORRADO HA DE ENMARCAR. 2ª LAS CEJAS : IGUAL QUE EL PELO ENMARCA, LAS CEJAS DAN FUERZA A NUESTRA MIRADA, DEBEN DE TENER PROTAGONISMO, MIRA LAS FOTOGRAFÍAS SIGUIENTES. 3ª LA BOCA. TIENE QUE ESTÁR PRESENTE, NADA DEL COLOR MAQUILLAJE, SALVO QUE LOS OJOS TENGAN TODO EL PROTAGONISMO

| Si os fijáis hay cuatro factores presentes en el envejecimiento. 1ª desaparecen los perfiles, el ovalo de la cara se relaja y desaparece. 2ª Las cejas pierden pelo y fuerza, todo es igual 3ª el pelo no enmarca la cara. cejas, pelo , labios están descoloridos. Siempre debemos, a cualquier edad enmarcar la cara, mas suave al pasar de los años. If you look there are four factors in aging. 1st profiles disappear, the oval of the face relaxes and goes. 2nd eyebrows lose hair and strength, everything is the same3rd hair does not frame the face. eyebrows, hair, lips are discolored.
We should always, at any age frame the face, softer to the passing of the years.

ME HA GUSTADO MUCHO ESTA NOVELA...........
 |
| Si tienes la gran suerte de poder leer en un jardín con olor a primavera, nada mejor que un buen libro.. |
"La elegancia del erizo" es una buena compañía.
 |
En "la elegancia del erizo" se nos habla de filosofía, de lecturas que nos conforman y nos hacen crecer, de la música que nos transporta y de un mundo interior que no queremos poner en evidencia para protegernos del mundanal ruido. Utilizamos las espinas para marcar nuestro territorio y sólo unos pocos sabrán verlo, la mayoría nos tratará como bichos raros y poco comunicativos. ¡Ay de aquellos que no saben de lo que hablo!
La superficialidad lo impregna todo, hay una mayoría incapaz de disfrutar de una buena lectura, sordos de la música clásica, ciegos ante un cuadro, discapacitados para el silencio o la reflexión. Adictos al vértigo de vivir sin pararse, del ruido que atonta los sentidos, del divertimento cansino e interminable. Lo confieso, en muchos momentos soy un erizo, sólo espero tener algo de elegancia.
Comentario sacado de "Te hablo de libros" con el que estoy totalmente de acuerdo.
