"The Painter of Light" →
Armando Reverón was as crazy as he was brilliant, as it is mostly the case with prodigious artists. He was Venezuela’s most famous painter, important enough for New York’s Museum of Modern Art to hold a retrospective of his work in 2007. A movie based on the last years of his life is currently showing in our cinemas, holding its own (or trying to) against big summer blockbusters. Enjoy...

Besides the different pavillions and stands (with guest countries Argentina, Nicaragua, and Cuba), there are also free concerts after 5 pm. There is an...

A little sincerity
I opened this tumblelog to show off a little bit of the beauty of my country to my foreign friends. And it’s all true. Every single thing I’ve posted here is true, and shows a part of Venezuela that isn’t often reflected on the news abroad. But unfortunately, what those newscasts show is very true, also. We are in the hands of the government that has undermined democracy by...

Mérida (Venezuela) - Wikitravel →
Mérida is Venezuela’s most mountainous state, and it might remind you of the Alps or the Rockies. It’s one of my favorite local destinations.
