Information arts projects/events - international artists

I remember people telling me since I was a child that it was difficult to be an international writer/artist while organizing arts events worldwide with some of the best international contemporary artists that I know of without a thing called money or budget.

 So, I lived my life till my 38 years old working in some shitty jobs (but being always a pro with the enterprises that I've worked on profiting tons with my blood, sweat and tears).

 Eight years ago, I bumped into a stone in a common street and thought on contradicting all this by organizing worldwide art festivals/events, making interviews to several international artists, creating and organizing excellent book collections (that were on my mind's eye) and seeing them published worldwide while writing several books.

 At present time deep inside Covid period, I was listening to the song "simultaneous by American band Puscifer from their album "Money Shot" released in 2015 and ideas started to form on my mind concerning all projects that I've worked, am working or will work with the best international artists that  I know  of. it was impossible doing what I had/have inside my mind/feelings/emotions wrong, just because I love to write while reading several pages at once, not fearing the return to reading the same page again.

 At present time we live in a strange mankind's world period where what counts more in life is the money that you've or the image that you pass to people. 
 What I do know regarding myself is that I was always humble and passionate being lucky to be born in the prettiest city in the world, while respecting nature and most human beings opinion through a simple thing called communication. Simultaneously my mind sometimes dwells from reason to imagination while clearly knowing that I'm a tiny cog in a vast cosmos that we all share with billions of living species.

I also know that  memories are real important in human beings consciousness in order to be inspired to do what they love.
 This is only a quick message/hello to all people and artists (that follow my work as a simple writer), to tell you all once again that I'm real organized clearly knowing that I'm only one guy and that I don't forget that most times in order to produce/create inspired work in arts takes years because writing and communicating with people in several languages is real hard when you also have a life to live.

 

 

 

What I know right now is that I put blood, sweat and tears doing something that I love to do in arts with help by some of the best international artists that I know of and will continue to do it.

In this written post, I've registered some sparkle random memories of a fraction of the work that I've done, am doing or will do in or outside the box, being sure that I've a good memory while also knowing that sometimes it can be a bit "tricky" because I'm a human being and not a machine.

Being the melody of the before mentioned song still inside my soul, heart, mind and spirit, I do hope above all that my friends are healthy during this mankind's shitty period, hoping that whoever reads this post,  enjoy it a bit either by actually reading it, visioning its images or listening/watching to the rhythm of "simultaneous" song's tune pace.

knowing myself that it's better being like this but I know that I love to show how I see the world while not hiding something from its own history inside a planet blue.

For this simple written post used the references below with how I see them in short sentences inside brackets on each.

References

Babylon Berlin TV series (A Tv series set on the groovy 20's in Berlin's "la belle époque" with clear references to a post first world war and with its reminiscences of Bauhaus art school and Kurt Weill's songs)

Fyodor Dostoyevsky (a quote that I love)

Andrei Tarkovsky "Mirror" from 1975 (a movie about a writer that depicts 70's Russia's life)

 Fritz Lang "Die Niebelungen" from 1924/1925 (a movie based on an epic book gathering German ancestry mythology and myths) 

David Fincher "Fight Club " from 1999 based on the book with same name published in 1995 by American writer Chuck Palahniuk (where life suddenly isn't what you've but who you're in society)

Luc Besson "Leon, The Professional"  from 1994 (a simple guy fighting corrupt people while trying to have hope on a young woman that could change the world in the future with her legacy from his memories)

Wim Wenders "Wings of Desire" from 1987 (depicting how angels could observe us and feeling in love with human beings fleeting life time) 

Pablo Berger"Blanca Nieves" (a different and fascinating take on Snow u's tale shot in glorious black and white)

João Cesar Monteiro's movies from 1969 to 2003 (a fascinating director that portrayed Portuguese soul throughout time while depicting the importance of art, culture and the role of women in society while being source of light)

Grant Morrison's "The Invisibles" from 1994 to 2000 (love the series that gave me this sentence/idea "how would the world become if suddenly time had warp lapses and a revolution inside our minds was forming therein) 

Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell "From Hell" from 1989 to 1990 (Victorian times in Britain inspired on Jack the ripper containing world history mythology)

and Corto Maltese from 1967 to 2020 (where a simple daydreamer dwells mostly with his love adventures along world history never settling himself in a single place)

comic book characters

Neil Gaiman's The Sandman from 1988 to 2015 (what if an entity powerful than gods and that on every living being in planet earth should be something different and new?)

Radiohead "Kid A" from 2000 (what if the rulers of society was kidding with us and we didn't knew nothing about it?)

and "Amnesiac" from 2001 (what if suddenly we as simple individuals were turning ourselves into amnesic zombies?)

Bryan Ferry & his orchestra (Sometimes men and artists must go back to a history period being influenced by its atmosphere like Bryan's example that reminds of Kurt Weill's songs and messages)

The Thin White Duke (Popped into this world as Major Tom, changed, mutated himself more times than a chameleon and left this planet as a Black Star)

Nature (Is everything that any living being in this planet has, knowing myself that most human beings seem to forget it)

Invicta (simply the prettiest city in the world wide world having an intense magic presence) 

Sometimes I write fables, poems and love stories in several languages to several women either in social networks or in real life, be them fashion models, artists or simple women who I love, just because I truly believe in the power of women throughout mankind's world history and that they resemble nature a lot.

Below are some of the women's names to whom I write to with love and devotion while being in between art projects with some of the best contemporary international artists that I know of

Mónica, Terhi Ekebom, Elena, Daria Kovaleva, Isabel, Nadya, Helena Espvall, Severija, Victoria, Sandra, Meret Becker,  Hélia, Eshley, Ellitsky, Vika Costa, Katya Kulizhka, Dominique Goblet, Barbara Nogueira, The Wild Enigma
