Homenaje a Luis Ospina

Tratando de identificar mis influencias no puedo evitar en pensar en ese grupo de Cali fantástico, algunos dirán Caiicedo otros Mayolo o algún exponente igual de talentoso pero menos conocido, en mi caso Don luis me lleno de cine y de literatura, trajo a mi vida la ficción y el collage.

Vampires of Poverty (Carlos Mayolo and Luis Ospina, 1973, Colombia)

In the early 1970’s there appeared a certain type of documentary that superficially appropriated the achievements and methodologies of independent film to the point of deformation. In this way, poverty became a shocking theme and a product easily sold, especially abroad, where it is the counterpart to the opulence of consumption. We made a kind of antidote or Mayakovskian bath to open people’s eyes to the exploitation behind the miserabilist cinema which turns human beings into objects, into instruments of a discourse foreign to their own condition.
