ESA MUJER...

El revival de los 90’s lo notamos no solo en la ropa y los remakes televisivos, sino en el arte, y la exposición Esa mujer, de Mar Ramón Soriano es un flashback a 1998. Han pasado ya 20 años desde el Escándalo Lewinsky, pero las lecciones que aprendimos de Bill y Monica aún son relevantes. Sin más presentación que un cartel A3 en su fachada, la pequeña sala de Didáctica de la Fundación Eugenio Granell, en pleno casco histórico de Santiago de Compostela, se nos presenta Mar Ramón Soriano con su breve muestra individual Esa mujer, título en alusión al término por el cual Bill Clinton se refería a Monica Lewinsky en sus declaraciones. Esa mujer podría ser cualquiera.  El espacio cedido por la Fundación para esta muestra se esconde entre el surrealismo y los aseos, pero una vez que entramos a él no encontramos en un salón de juegos bañado por el sol. Nuestra artista emergente nos envuelve en una atmósfera inocente, casi infantil, al utilizar rosas pasteles en sus piezas. Piezas en cerámica barnizada que representan dianas y dardos, clavijas y aros, bolos que si derribáramos se romperían en mil pedazos. Materializa así el cuerpo de Monica con sus colores carne y acabados imperfectos. Monica es un juguete con el que el público puede jugar, aunque ella no disfrute del juego. Todo esto precedido por la página web de Wikipedia sobre el Escándalo Lewinsky impresa pegada en la pared, para tener a alcance los detalles del escabroso affaire presidencial. El corto recorrido acaba con una serie de fotografías de todos los implicados en el escándalo, reconocibles aún con sus caras están cubiertas por una espesa capa de base de maquillaje, elemento que resalta la supuesta banalidad femenina, aplicada para borrar las imperfecciones de la realidad, hasta distorsionarla.   Con su obra Mar nos confirma que las luchas feministas no están superadas, nuestra sociedad sigue enfrentándose a los mismos problemas del siglo XX, solo que en otras plataformas y con nombres más sofisticados, como slutshaming y cyberbullying. La protagonista de esta muestra declaró en el 2014: "Having survived myself, what I want to do now is help other victims of the shame game survive, too".  

Mar Ramón Soriano, las manos y la mente detrás de esta muestra, estudió Bellas Artes y el Máster en creación e investigación en UVigo. Esta joven ourensana suele trabajar con elementos cotidianos haciendo referencia a los roles de cuidados que se le han atribuido a las mujeres por siglos. Quizá sea arriesgado señalar influencias de otras artistas en su corpus, pero desde el hecho de tratar temas sociales de manera sutil como hace la colombiana Doris Salcedo, a compartir con Sonia Delaunay el uso de materiales como cerámica y tejidos, elementos relegados al uso cotidiano dentro del hogar, vemos retoma una línea discursiva que en nuestra sociedad solo podría expresar una mujer. La muestra Esa mujer es un proyecto financiado por las ayudas Injuve para la Creación Xove, dependiente de la Administración General del Estado, y estará en exhibición hasta el 8 de abril.

NEW YORK— In an unprecedented break from American political tradition, Monica Lewinsky has released a memoir detailing how to survive a national scandal without subsequently launching a Senate campaign, sparking confusion among career politicians and former cable news pundits alike. Lewinsky’s new book, How to Survive a Scandal Without Becoming a Senator, is being hailed as a bold, genre-defying work that challenges the fundamental laws of Washington, D.C.—namely, the requirement that anyone publicly disgraced must immediately rebrand themselves as either a best-selling political strategist or a rising contender in swing-state primaries. “I know this may be hard to believe,” Lewinsky […]

NEW YORK— In an unprecedented break from American political tradition, Monica Lewinsky has released a memoir detailing how to survive a national scandal without subsequently launching a Senate campaign, sparking confusion among career politicians and former cable news pundits alike. Lewinsky’s new book, How to Survive a Scandal Without Becoming a Senator, is being hailed as a bold, genre-defying work that challenges the fundamental laws of Washington, D.C.—namely, the requirement that anyone publicly disgraced must immediately rebrand themselves as either a best-selling political strategist or a rising contender in swing-state primaries. “I know this may be hard to believe,” Lewinsky writes in the book’s opening chapter, Step One: Don’t Announce a Run for Congress, “but you can absolutely recover from a humiliating, nationally televised scandal without turning it into a campaign slogan. It is possible to be a private citizen who simply… moves on. I realize this concept is deeply upsetting to many elected officials.” Confusion Among Political Circles Lewinsky’s decision to not use her past as a springboard to public office has reportedly left many in Washington baffled. “Wait, so she had a high-profile controversy, became a household name, and now she’s just… writing about it? No exploratory committee? No Super PAC?” asked a visibly distressed Newt Gingrich, fidgeting with a crumpled copy of Politico. “I mean, we’ve got guys who got caught stuffing bribery cash into their freezers, and even they knew to throw their hat in the ring for a governor’s race. Is she okay?” Other scandal-ridden figures have also expressed shock at Lewinsky’s restraint. Former New York Congressman Anthony Weiner reportedly sent a direct message (of unknown contents) to Lewinsky, urging her to reconsider her apolitical stance, citing his own resilience: “Public disgrace is just a stepping stone, Monica. Next thing you know, you’ll be one awkward photo op away from running a city.” Meanwhile, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, himself a veteran of multiple scandals, simply stared at the book cover in disbelief. “So… you’re telling me she’s not angling for a CNN contributor gig? Not even a Fox News redemption tour? That’s just bad branding.” Highlights from the Memoir The book, set for release next week, offers a step-by-step guide for individuals caught in public controversy who do notwish to turn it into a political advantage—a demographic that, to date, has yet to exist. According to leaked excerpts, Lewinsky provides key lessons such as: Chapter 2: If You’re Humiliated on National Television, Maybe Don’t Immediately Write a Fundraising Email About It Chapter 6: The Internet Never Forgets, But That Doesn’t Mean You Have to Host a Podcast About It Chapter 8: When in Doubt, Just Log Off and Try Therapy Instead Publishers are particularly excited about Chapter 12: A Comprehensive Guide to Not Running for President, No Matter How Many Think Pieces Urge You To. “By writing this book, Monica Lewinsky has done the impossible,” said publishing executive Brenda Caldwell. “She has successfully turned a traumatic public ordeal into a thoughtful, introspective work without using it as a launchpad for a career in Washington. We hope readers find it useful—though, to be fair, no one in politics ever will.” Reaction from the Public Predictably, Lewinsky’s refusal to capitalize on her past has deeply disturbed Americans who have spent decades turning political scandals into Netflix specials, congressional hearings, and lucrative book deals. “This is a slippery slope,” warned one veteran campaign manager. “If we allow people to process their past with grace and dignity, we could see the complete collapse of the scandal-industrial complex. What’s next? A former Congressman who simply admits wrongdoing and retires from public life? I shudder to think.” Fox News has already labeled the book “a dangerous attack on the American political redemption arc,”

while MSNBC has spent the past 72 hours attempting to book Lewinsky for a segment on every evening news program. “We just want her to tell her story,” said one desperate producer. “Preferably in a way that maximizes ad revenue and leads to a Netflix adaptation.” Meanwhile, social media has erupted in the usual cycle of outrage, with users furiously debating whether or not Lewinsky is allowed to still exist. “Ugh, she should just move on,” wrote one Twitter user who has personally tweeted about the Clinton impeachment every three months for the past 25 years. “I, for one, think she should run for office,” replied another. “I have no idea what her policies are, but I’m extremely invested in her ability to make half the country irrationally mad.” The Future of the Memoir Lewinsky has expressed hope that her book will help others navigate personal crises, though early sales data suggests that the vast majority of readers will be people who just want to see if she talks about Bill Clinton. “Look, I get it,” Lewinsky said in a recent interview. “But this isn’t a book about politics. It’s a book about personal growth, about resilience, about not letting one event define your entire life. I mean, unless you’re a former president—then, I guess, history does that for you.” At press time, sources confirmed that multiple disgraced politicians were already scrambling to secure their own book deals, hoping to avoid the Lewinsky model entirely. “I’d love to write a thoughtful book about moving forward,” said one anonymous former senator. “But that won’t get me on The View. So instead, I’ll be publishing From Scandal to Senate: Why America Needs My Redemption Arc. Pre-orders start now.” https://lighthousenewsnetwork.com/monica-lewinsky-releases-memoir-how-to-survive-a-scandal/?feed_id=15311&_unique_id=67c080e6d61c3
