Read OnlineLifting up his eyes to heaven, Jesus prayed saying: “I pray not only for these, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, so that they may all be one, as you, Father, are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that you sent me.”  John 17:20–21Over the past couple of weeks, we have been continually reading from Chapter 14–17 of John's Gospel. These chapters contain Jesus' Last Supper Discourses and provide us with Jesus' last sermon, so to speak. Chapter 17, which we have been reading this past week, presents us with Jesus' final prayer for His disciples and for all of us “who will believe” in Him through the preaching of the disciples. Each time we read from Chapter 17, the Lectionary begins the reading with the phrase “Lifting up his eyes to heaven, Jesus prayed saying…” That line is an adaptation of Chapter 17:1 but is used to introduce the various parts of the prayer of Jesus each time it is read at Mass.It's interesting that Jesus would look up to Heaven when He prayed. Of course, Heaven is not physically in the sky, because Heaven is a spiritual reality. The Father is not located in some place in the sky but is omnipresent, meaning, present all places and all times. And yet, Jesus raises His eyes upward when He prays to the Father. There is a great lesson in this.Our physical disposition is important, at times. For example, when someone we owe respect to enters a room, we usually rise and greet them. It would be disrespectful to remain lounging on a bed or sofa in that case. And at Mass, we do not sit back with legs crossed during the Consecration; rather, we kneel in adoration. And when we greet someone for the first time, we do not look at the floor; rather, we look them in the eyes.Jesus' act of “Lifting his eyes to heaven” was not done because He thought He might see the Father in the sky; rather, it was done out of respect and love and as a way of acknowledging the dignity of the Father. This should teach us about our own bodily disposition and the message we communicate to others, especially to God in prayer.When you pray, what do you do? Though you can pray at any time and while in any disposition, it is an excellent practice to speak to God not only by your words but also by the disposition you take. Kneeling, raising hands in prayer, falling prostrate before your Lord, sitting upright with attentiveness, etc., are all ways in which you communicate to God your love.Reflect, today, upon this image of Jesus praying. Gaze at how attentive He would have been as He lifted His sacred eyes upward as a physical gesture honoring the glorious, all-powerful Father in Heaven. Try to imagine Jesus' devotion, intensity, respect and burning love. Imitate this holy gesture of prayer and attentiveness to the Father and remind yourself of the importance of expressing your love in bodily form.My most holy Father in Heaven, I do join Your Son, Jesus, in lifting my eyes, my heart and my whole life to You in honor, love and respect. May I always be attentive to You and always show You the devotion due Your greatness. My dear Jesus, thank You for Your love of the Father in Heaven. Give me the grace I need to imitate You and Your perfect love in my life. Jesus, I trust in You.  El Greco, Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Semana Santa, czyli Wielki Tydzień w Hiszpanii obchodzony jest z wielką pompą, obfitując w barwne procesie na ulicach. Ten czas spędziliśmy w samym sercu Półwyspu Iberyjskiego. Byliśmy w Toledo okrzykniętym Miastem Trzech Kultur, w którym żył i tworzył El Greco, a także w Siguenzy, szykowanej dopiero na listę UNESCO. Wyruszyliśmy szlakiem Don Kichota z La Manchy pośród malowniczych wiatraków. Wśród zakapturzonych pokutników wzięliśmy udział w spektakularnej wieczornej procesji, która odbyła się w Wielki Piątek w Cuence. Zajrzeliśmy też do Albarracim, a mroczne oblicze Aragonii poznaliśmy w Mauzoleum Kochanków w Teruel. Gościem Jerzego Jopa była Danuta Rasała.

In this first episode of the new series of A brush with…, Ben Luke talks to the painter Celia Paul about her influences—including writers as well as contemporary and historic artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Paul was born in 1959 in Trivandrum, India, and now lives in London. She makes intense yet ruminative paintings of people close to her, the spaces in which she lives and works, and landscapes of poignant significance. Her paintings are made from life but are pregnant with memory, poetry and emotion, which she imbues in her distinctive painterly language. Her art possesses a rare tranquillity in which one perceives deep feeling; Paul wrote in her memoir that her paintings are “so private and personal that there's almost a ‘Keep Out' sign in front of them”. At once a singular figure yet also connected to strands of recent and historic figurative painting in Britain, she has been admired widely throughout her career but only recently been recognised as a major figure in British art of the past 40 years. She discusses the fact that she began painting before she knew about art, but when she was introduced to Old and Modern Masters, she discovered El Greco and Paul Cezanne, who remain important to her today. She also reflects on the compassion in Rembrandt and Vincent van Gogh, the stillness and scale of Agnes Martin and the elementary power of the novels of the Brontë sisters. She also describes her response in painting to the artists of the School of London, including Lucian Freud, with whom she was once in a relationship, and Frank Auerbach.Celia Paul: Colony of Ghosts, Victoria Miro, London, until 17 April 2025.

Con algunas grabaciones históricas recordamos a Orlando Vallejo, una de las voces altas de la música popular cubana. Falleció en Miami, Estados Unidos, el 20 de enero de 1981, hace exactamente 44 años. Aunque destacó en mayor medida como bolerista, Vallejo también interpretó con singular talento otros géneros de la música cubana como sones, guajiras, montunos y guarachas. Revisitaremos los catálogos discográficos RCA Víctor y Panart para disfrutar del arte de este formidable cantante que, en diferentes etapas de su carrera, entre los años 40 y 50 del siglo XX, fue parte de agrupaciones destacadas como el Conjunto "Kubavana", los "Guaracheros de Oriente", el Conjunto "Colonial" y el Conjunto "Casino" donde logró afianzarse como bolerista dando comienzo a una brillante carrera como solista a mediados de 1953. Como figura exclusiva de los discos Panart, producidos por Ramón Sabat, efectuó numerosas grabaciones con igual número de acompañamientos. Buen recuerdo para Orlando Vallejo. Había nacido en la localidad habanera de Arroyo Naranjo el 30 de abril de 1918. Más del catálogo sonoro de Cuba con los tesoros de su música popular, editados en 78 revoluciones por minuto. Los tríos cubanos se distinguieron, desde los últimos años 20 del siglo pasado, por su diversidad estilística. Ante la ausencia de una industria fonográfica en la Isla fueron las etiquetas norteamericanas como Víctor, Brunswick y Columbia, entre otras, las que registraron, desde esas fechas, sus más variadas vertientes. El son oriental de Matamoros y la sonoridad más proclive a la guaracha que impuso en la capital de la Isla el trío de Servando Díaz, nos acompañan a continuación. Para ello volvemos a los catálogos de las etiquetas independientes Kubaney y Velvet. Es el legendario Trío Matamoros. Con más de treinta años de permanencia en los escenarios de Cuba y el mundo Siro Rodríguez, Rafael Cueto y Don Miguel, continuaban defendiendo el clásico sonido de "los Matamoros". Finalizando la década del 30 debutaban en discos Victor. Recordamos al trío de Servando Díaz de mediados de los 50s cuando pertenecía al staff artístico del sello Panart. Sonidos memorables legados por el catálogo de la etiqueta independiente Gema, fundada en La Habana del año 1957 por los hermanos Álvarez Guedes. Álbum "Sones de Ayer". La inconfundible voz de Miguelito Cuní con el respaldo de un típico septeto de sones bajo la batuta del tresero, arreglista y compositor Niño Rivera. Notable producción donde destaca la trompeta del gran Oscar Velazco "Florecita". Las creaciones de Bienvenido Julián Gutiérrez a la manera de Miguelito Cuní. Casi en la despedida El Greco con "Top Secret", formación fundada en 1996. El jazz cubano de los últimos años 90 gracias al quehacer de este valioso trompetista. Nos vamos con la guaracha más pura de mano de las veteranas Hermanas Márquez.

In this episode of The Mutation Station, we explore the fascinating world of hypermobility and Marfan syndrome. Hypermobility, commonly known as being double-jointed, allows individuals to extend their joints beyond the typical range of motion, while Marfan syndrome is a genetic disorder affecting connective tissue. We dive into the medical characteristics of Marfan syndrome, including cardiovascular complications, joint flexibility, and the tall, slender build typical of those with the condition. The episode also examines historical figures, such as Abraham Lincoln, who may have had Marfan syndrome, and the portrayal of this disorder in art, including El Greco's elongated figures. We also explore cultural perceptions, myths, and legends that may have been inspired by traits of hypermobility. With references to literature, art, and famous individuals, this episode highlights the impact of genetic mutations on society and history. Tune in to discover the hidden connections between genetics, culture, and creativity.

Welcome to Seeking Truth with Sharon Doran. Sharon has a passion for scripture that will motivate and challenge you to immerse yourself in God's Word and apply His message to your everyday life. Visit SeekingTruth.net to learn more about bringing Seeking Truth to your parish or to become an online learner. Today it's part two of the Gospel of Mark, chapter 1, verses 1 through 15. And now, Seeking Truth with Sharon Doran. Jesus, the anointed one. And when they were all waiting for the anointed one to come, and who was the anointed one? The Messiah. So God saves is what Jesus means. God saves. They're waiting for an anointed one. God saves anointed one. Jesus Christ, God's anointed one. The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, then we get his identity. Son of capital G God. That's a bold proclamation. To the emperor of Rome, who is calling himself little g God, and he has a son too. So the son of God. Now, this is a striking title, a striking, bold proclamation of faith, because the world did not know that God had a son, because God had not revealed that yet. Even the Jews did not know God had a son, because they said every morning and every night, the Shema prayer, hear, O Israel, the Lord, our God is one Lord. All they knew was God was one. And they would pray at morning, night, morning, night, and they still do. From Deuteronomy chapter 6, the Shema Israel, hear, O Israel, the Lord, the Lord our God is one. They don't know God has a son. They don't know that he's one, two, and three, and one. They don't know anything about that yet. God has to reveal that through his God spell, through his gospel. Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one, and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your might. And these words, which I command you this day, shall be upon your heart, and you will teach them diligently to your children, and you shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up. These are pretty important words. And you shall bind them as a sign upon your hand. And so the Jews would bind them on their hands. And they shall be in the frontlets of your eyes, and they would put them in the frontlets of their eyes. These are tefillin or phylacteries, they're called. Tefillin or phylacteries, they're little small leather boxes, and they contain leather straps and scrolls of parchment inside with all the verses of the Shema prayer from Deuteronomy 6 in Torah. Bind it to your head, bind it on your hands, bind it on your arms, teach it to your children, and put it on the, write it on the doorposts of your house and on your gates. So if you have any Jewish friends, they have a mezuzah on their door and inside the mezuzah. And when we bought our house from the Katzes and it had a mezuzah in the door and we kept it because inside the little brass thing is a little scroll with the Shema on it. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your might. It's called a mezuzah on your doorpost to this day. So they didn't know that God had a son. They thought God was one. So this is a bold proclamation of identity, that God Almighty, our one God, has a son. So he is already in this short line. We've seen two people of the Trinity, God the Father and God the Son. And we're going to see the Spirit before these 15 verses are over. So he's going to reveal the whole Trinity in the first 15 verses. They didn't know anything about it. But they did know Isaiah the prophet had said that, behold, I send a messenger before thy face that shall prepare the way. The voice of one crying out in the wilderness, prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths. They knew Isaiah well. And since Genesis 3, 15 and the fall of Adam and Eve, they had been waiting for a Messiah, one who would bring them back into communion with God because they had lost that when they got expelled from the garden. So they're waiting. Everyone's waiting for a Messiah. And this one's going to come before him who's going to prepare the way. So no one's going to miss this because one's going to come before him to prepare the way. Isaiah said it. I will send my messenger before thy face. He will prepare the way. It's going to be a voice of one crying out in the wilderness. Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his path straight. Now, Isaiah, we studied Isaiah, and it is called the fifth gospel because there are so many fulfillments to be fulfilled in Isaiah by Jesus Christ, the Messiah. Let's read what that said in Isaiah 40. It's so beautiful. You'll all love this passage. Let's just see where this came from. Comfort, comfort my people, says your God. Speak tenderly to Jerusalem and cry to her that her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received from the Lord's hand double for all her sins. Would that be a good message? Yeah. See it together for the mouth of the Lord has done what? God spoke the word. The mouth of the Lord has spoken it. The mouth of the Lord and God said. God spoke and it was. The mouth of the Lord has spoken it. Now, if we go on to the last stanza of that beautiful Isaiah 40 and we think about St. Peter is really the one who Mark is writing for. Isaiah says this, cry, and I say, what shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all its beauty is like the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower fades, but the breath of the Lord blows upon it, and surely the people is grass. The grass withers, the flower fades, but what will stand forever? The word of God will stand, And how long? Forever. That's what St. Peter said in 1 Peter 1. You who have been born anew, not of perishable seed, but imperishable through the living and abiding word of God for all flesh is like grass, all its glory like the flowers of grass. The grass withers, the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord abides forever. That word is the good news. news, the euangelion, the evangelium, the God spell, the good story that was proclaimed to you. Do you see an essence of St. Peter in Mark's gospel? Yes. Not only was the prophet Isaiah saying this, but the very final prophet of the Old Testament, the very last one, and then God was quiet for over 400 years. The very last prophet was Malachi. Malachi said something. Similar. Mary and Joseph bring him to the presentation and Simeon is outside and the Holy Spirit is so strong. Simeon's like, oh, he goes running into the temple after this baby and this young couple. They're so poor. They don't have a lamb. They just have the two little pigeon offering. Simeon takes that baby in his arms. He blessed God and he said, Lord, now let your servant depart in peace. I can die now according to what? Your word. According to your word, because my eyes have seen the salvation of all people, Gentile and Jew. This is him. This is the anointed one. This is Messiah. This is Jesus. God saves the anointed one, Jesus Christ. I know it by the power of the Holy Spirit. Anna the prophetess knew it too. She's in her 80s. She comes running in. She knows it. Mark's gospel, which is Peter's gospel, is not concerned with the infancy narratives. He is going to start with the ministry of Jesus that started when Jesus Christ was 30 years old. Peter didn't know anything about when Christ was a baby. Peter met Christ when Christ was 30 years old. How do we know that? Thank you, St. Luke, the careful historian, the doctor who's careful with his charting. He said that Jesus was 30 years of age in Luke chapter 3. Why is that important? That's important because in order to be a priest, guess how old you had to be? 30. Jesus won't be a Levitical priest. He will be a priest in the order of Melchizedek, but he's the the age of priesthood. Mark writes about Jesus from age 30 forward. And he says this, John the baptizer appeared in the wilderness preaching a baptism of repentance for what? The forgiveness of sins. So baptism for John had two components. There must be repentance. You must be sorry. You must humble yourself. You must go forward and repent with a contrite heart. And then what? You will be forgiven. You have to humble yourself, though, to repent. That's the hard part. That's where grace comes in. The Holy Spirit stirs us with grace. He acts on us. He acts on that sanctifying grace from our own baptism to get us to niggle enough that we want to go repent and be forgiven in the sacrament of confession. John the Baptizer appeared in the wilderness preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. Now, this is a picture of St. John the Baptist by El Greco. This is what Matthew said about him. Truly, I say to you, this is Jesus talking now. These are Jesus's own words in the gospel of Matthew. Truly, I say to you, among those born of woman, there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist yet. He who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than John. Who's Jesus talking about? Who could be more humble than John the Baptist? Jesus himself. Truly I say to you, among those born of woman, there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist, yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than John. For all the prophets, Jesus is still talking, for all the prophets and the law prophesied about John the Baptist. And if, if you are willing to accept it, Jesus Christ said, he is Elijah who is come. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. Everybody knew that someone had to come before Jesus. Remember on the cross when Jesus is crying out and some of the people say, is he Elijah? No, he's Jesus. Elijah was John the Baptist. Jesus told them that in Matthew 11, in his own words, for you with ears to hear, John is Elijah. This is a typology clue from Jesus. Jesus Christ himself said that John is Elijah. They dress alike. They talk alike. They look alike. Now, who is this John the Baptist? His dad was Zechariah. He was a priest. His mom was from the daughters of Aaron, another priestly family. Aaron's the brother of Moses. Elizabeth. And Elizabeth is barren, and they are old, old, old, old. They're advanced in years. She's never had a baby. She's sterile. She's barren. She's past menopause. There's no way they're having a kid, right? But his lot is drawn. And Zechariah goes into the temple that day, and I'm sure Elizabeth said, now make sure you pray that we have a baby. And he goes in, his lot is drawn, and he's in the Holy of Holies, the holiest place on the face of the earth. And an angel appears and says, don't be afraid, Zechariah. Your prayer has been heard. And your wife, Elizabeth, what is he praying for? He's every, any good priest, Levitical priest would be praying for the consolation of Israel, for the Messiah to come and save him from all the suppression of the Roman empire. And, and, and, oh yeah. And my wife wants a baby, but it's the same answer because the baby his wife is going to have is going to be the forerunner to the Messiah that has to come first before the Messiah. So it's a double dip. Don't you love when you get a double dip prayer? It's a double dip. And if you will have joy and gladness and many are going to rejoice at his birth. Why? Because he's the forerunner to the Messiah. And he's going to be great before the Lord, and he's not going to have any drink, no wine, no strong drink. That means he's going to take that Nazarite vow from the book of Numbers, and he's going to be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb. This is a first. No one had an indwelling Holy Spirit because Jesus hadn't released the Holy Spirit yet on the face of the earth. John is an exception, the forerunner. He is going to be filled with the Holy Spirit from the moment of conception on. That's how he knows inside her stomach to jump up and down when he's in front of the Messiah. He's full of the Holy Spirit. And he will turn many of the sons of Israel to the Lord. And he, now listen to this, he will go before him in the spirit and the power of who? Elijah. And what will he do? He will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just to make ready for the Lord a people prepared. A people prepared for what? A people prepared to meet the Messiah with clean hearts. That's what John's going to do. These are the famous last words of Malachi chapter 4, the very final sentences of the Old Testament. Malachi wrote, Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day that the Lord comes. And what will he do? He will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their Just what Zechariah said. Jesus is going to come. He's going to reverse all the curses of the fall and usher in all the blessings. He does just the opposite. He gives the greatest blessing, the gift of salvation, the gift of communion again with the Trinity that we lost in the garden. I will send you, Elijah, the prophet, before the Lord comes. He's going to turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers. That's exactly what Zechariah was praying. It's a prayer of the church. The deacons say it. The Liturgy of the Hour is every morning you say Luke 1. You say Zechariah's prayer. He's going to go before him in the spirit of the power of Elijah. This is Malachi. His name means my messenger. He's the final prophet in the Old Testament. And his book was written about 400 years before the birth of Christ, about 430 years before Christ. And this was nearly 100 years after the Jews had come back from the Babylonian exile. Now, the only scripture Jesus had were the Old Testament scrolls. He had the law and the prophets. They were scrolls. They were written in Koine Greek at the time because Alexander the Great had changed everything into Greek. Now, everything Everything's Latin because Rome is the world power. But the final words of the final scroll that God revealed to humans was that of Malachi, that he was sending Elijah the prophet before the terrible day of the Lord. So everyone knows Elijah has to come first. At every Passover, they set a place for Elijah, the end of the Old Testament. That's it. That's it. Those are the last words. And then it's silent for over 400 years. And then God spoke. An incarnate word, Jesus Christ. These two boys, Jesus Christ and John the Baptist, they're six months apart in age, half a year, six months difference. God sent Gabriel, who we're celebrating today, the Feast of the Archangels. One is Gabriel. The angel Gabriel came to Mary with a message. Behold, your kin's woman. She's related to Elizabeth. She's in her her old age, and she has conceived a son, and she is in her sixth month, the one who was called barren. She's six months along. Mary in haste goes to see her. She wants to serve her kinswoman. She knows she's old. She's pregnant, too. She has a secret she'd like to share with Elizabeth. She'll get it. Elizabeth is six months along, six months ahead of Mary's newly pregnant. Mary will stay there the whole time till the birth of John the Baptist. They can't believe they're having a baby, And Mary's there to help, to see the baby. But what happens, ladies, at about three months on your first baby? You start to show. Like now, after having seven pregnancies, five kids, and now I look seven months pregnant all the time. But back then, on your first baby, you're not showing until about three months. So Mary's three months along. Guess what? She's in her first trimester. She's beginning to show. She's going to go back to Nazareth. And people are going to be like. Have you seen Mary? Have you seen Mary? Have you seen Mary? Do you think? Do you think? So she has to go back. But Elizabeth and Zachariah have a beautiful baby boy, and he's going to be the forerunner of the Messiah. And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High. You will go before the Lord to prepare his way. Check, check, check. He will be the forerunner, John the Baptist. Now, in a triptych in the Russian Orthodox faith, they always put Mary, Jesus, and John the forerunner together. John often in icons has his own head on his platter because we'll see in Mark 6 how it ends with him. One of my favorite accounts of John is in Mark 6. And sometimes when it's not his head on a platter, he'll have Jesus in the chalice, baby Jesus, and he's pointing to him. In artwork, John the Baptist is always pointing to Jesus. So he sees Jesus, the true presence in the chalice there. Forerunner, why does he go before the Messiah? To soften their hearts so they can repent, be forgiven, have pure hearts when Messiah comes. Anytime you repent, the Holy Spirit just floods in. Jesus cannot resist repentance. I don't care what you've done. It can be the worst sin on the face of the earth. But if you repent and you have a contrite heart, you will be forgiven. There's nothing

El panorama es sombrío, tormentoso, deprimente. Los nubarrones que cubren la ciudad están a punto de agrietarse y desencadenar una tormenta. Los edificios y el paisaje dan la impresión de estar en movimiento, conscientes de lo que se avecina. Algo está por suceder, y no augura nada bueno. Es así como El Greco, más allá de entregarnos un panorama, nos deja una marcada impresión de la ciudad española en que él se estableció en 1577, cumplidos ya treinta y seis años de edad, y donde vivió hasta su muerte en 1614. No se preocupa tanto por reproducirla cabalmente como por hacernos sentirla emocionalmente. Se trata de la «Ciudad Histórica de Toledo», inscrita en la lista del Patrimonio Mundial de la Humanidad en 1986, casi cuatro siglos después de que el Greco la plasmara en un lienzo.1 El cuadro se titula simplemente «Vista de Toledo», aunque también se le ha llamado «Toledo en una tormenta». Es uno de los primeros paisajes de la historia de la pintura, y tal vez el más famoso de todos. Y por esa «Vista de Toledo», a el Greco, a pesar de provenir de la isla de Creta, se le considera como el primer paisajista en la historia del arte español.2 Una de las preguntas acerca del paisaje es si el cielo presagia que va a llover, tal como han dado por sentado algunos escritores. Es posible que el oscuro trasfondo del cielo y el esparcimiento de las nubes sólo tengan la intención de representar un ambiente del todo impresionante. Pero como en esa época a la lluvia se le consideraba un regalo de Dios, pudiera ser que el Greco la estuviera presagiando como tal.3 Durante las décadas en que él vivió en Toledo, hubo muchas sequías que dieron como resultado cosechas pésimas, comenzando con las que sufrió la ciudad en sus primeros dos años de vivir allí. Eso explica la frecuencia de las ceremonias que se celebraron en la catedral para pedirle a Dios que mandara la lluvia.4 De modo que lo que pudiera interpretarse como un paisaje urbano sombrío y deprimente también puede considerarse como una respuesta de Dios a la oración.   Tarde o temprano, algo parecido sucede en el marco de la vida de cada uno de nosotros. Lo que al principio nos parece adverso, como una mala noticia sin nada que se vislumbre de bueno, puede a la postre resultar favorable. Tanto es así que hay varios dichos y refranes que lo afirman con relación al tema del mal tiempo atmosférico, entre ellos los siguientes: «Al mal tiempo, buena cara», «Tras la tormenta viene la calma» y «En cada nube hay un rayo de esperanza». Más vale que si estamos pasando por lo que al parecer es una verdadera tormenta, incluso una prueba que juzguemos insuperable, no se la atribuyamos necesariamente a Dios, sobre todo como si fuera un castigo. Veámosla más bien como lluvia en el pronóstico de nuestra vida que podemos interpretar a través del lente del pasaje bíblico que dice que «si amamos a Dios, Él hace que todo lo que nos suceda sea para nuestro bien».5 Pero primero asegurémonos de amarlo de todo corazón.

Velázquez, El Greco, "barroco" o "escorzo" son nombres y conceptos que están ya incorporados a la lengua de signos española, cuentan ya con su propio signo. Es el resultado del proyecto "Signar con el Prado" desarrollado por la propia pinacoteca y la Fundación de la Confederación Estatal de Personas Sordas. Más de 250 palabras del mundo del arte se han sumado al diccionario de la lengua de signos. No ha sido un proceso sencillo y queremos saber más sobre él así que hoy nos vamos al Prado. Allí hablamos con Santiago González, de su departamento de Educación, y con David Sánchez y la intérprete Marian Tori, encargados de la traducción de los términos a la lengua de signos y de la incorporación a su diccionario. Escuchar audio

We've all seen those illusions. The dots seem to dance, when in fact they're completely still. The lines look like they bend, but in reality they're perfectly straight. Here's the thing: It doesn't matter that you know the ground truth of these illusions—the dancing and bending won't stop. And that we see the world one way, even though we know it's actually another way, is a fascinating quirk of our minds—and maybe a telling one. It suggests that there's a chasm between perceiving and thinking, that these may be two independent provinces of the mind. But, if so, we're faced with another question: Where does perception end and thinking begin?  My guest today is Dr. Chaz Firestone. Chaz is an Associate Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Johns Hopkins University, and Director of the Perception and Mind lab there. He and his research group study perceiving, thinking, and the interface between the two. Here, Chaz and I talk about his background in philosophy and how it continues to animate his research. We sketch the differences between perception and cognition and why the two are best considered separate faculties. We consider the idea of so-called "top-down" effects on perception. We discuss the fact that, even if perception and cognition are separate, there's much more to perception than meets the eye. We seem to see things like causes and social interactions; we perceive things like silences and absences. Along the way, Chaz and I touch on the modular view mind, skeletal shapes, the El Greco fallacy, stubborn epistemology, birders and radiologists, retinotopy and visual adaptation, adversarial images, human-machine comparisons, and the case of the blue banana.  This is a fun one, friends. But before we get to it, one humble request. If you've been enjoying Many Minds, now would be a great time to leave us a rating or review. You can do this on Apple Podcasts or on Spotify.

En este episodio: -       Vamos a conocer uno de los museos más importantes de Europa: El Museo del Prado. -       En la segunda parte, practicarás con una mini-historia sobre el tema.   ¡Hola! Soy Óscar. Creo que nos conocemos, ¿no? Gracias por acompañarme en un nuevo episodio del pódcast de unlimitedspanish.com. Recuerda que puedes conseguir el texto de este episodio en mi página web: www.unlimitedspanish.com sección pódcast. Hoy nos vamos de visita al centro de Madrid. Y no, no es para comer tapas ni para bailar flamenco. ¡Nos vamos al Museo del Prado! Sí, ese lugar majestuoso que parece sacado de una película de época. ¿Te suena el nombre? ¡Claro que sí! Es uno de los museos más importantes de Europa. Fundado en 1819, es como una cápsula del tiempo repleta de obras maestras que nos cuentan aspectos de la historia y cultura de España y Europa. Ahora, te preguntarás, ¿qué hay dentro de sus muros? Pues de todo un poco. Empezó como un lugar para colgar pinturas y exhibir esculturas, pero con el tiempo, se dijo: "¡Vamos a poner más arte!”, y así llegaron los dibujos, grabados y demás. Y entre esos cuadros, hay obras de artistas como Goya, Velázquez y El Greco. Algún día hablaré de ellos. Cuando entras en el museo, puedes contemplar "Las Meninas" de Velázquez. ¡Esa pintura que parece que todos miran a todos lados! Y no te pierdas las pinturas negras de Goya, que son como los tuits oscuros y profundos del siglo XIX. Pero no todo es pintura. ¡Hay casi mil esculturas a tu disposición! Puedes admirar el arte en 2D con los cuadros, y en 3D con estas esculturas. Y si te aburres (que lo dudo), siempre hay talleres, charlas y exposiciones para explorar aún más el mundo del arte.  Y hablando del edificio, es bastante singular.  Diseñado por Juan de Villanueva, de estilo neoclásico, presenta una fachada simétrica y grandiosa, con columnas corintias y una serie de arcos en la parte superior. ¡Ah! Y antes de que se me olvide, hay algo que muchos no saben del Prado: ¡tiene un jardín secreto! Bueno, no tan secreto, pero sí un poco escondido. Es el Jardín de las Estatuas, un pequeño rincón donde algunas esculturas toman el sol y el aire. ¡Perfecto para un descanso entre tanto arte! Si eres de los que disfruta de las anécdotas, déjame contarte una: ¿sabías que el museo estuvo a punto de ser destruido durante la Guerra Civil Española? Pero gracias a la rápida acción de empleados y ciudadanos, muchas obras fueron evacuadas a tiempo. ¡Menos mal! Imagina un mundo sin poder ver "El jardín de las delicias" de El Bosco. ¡Sería impensable! Y hablando de obras, si eres de los que piensan que los museos son lugares silenciosos y solemnes, ¡prepárate para una sorpresa! El Prado es de esos lugares que vibran. No es raro encontrar artistas en pleno trabajo, recreando las obras maestras en vivo. ¡Y algunos son verdaderamente buenos! En fin, el Museo del Prado no es solo paredes con cuadros. Es vida, es historia, es cultura. Si algún día visitas Madrid, este museo seguro que es un lugar que te gustará.    

José Antonio Marina viene dispuesto una semana más a hacer trabajar a nuestros escuchantes más detectivescos. Si en su sección anterior nos planteaba averiguar en qué ciudad alemana se había celebrado en el año 1912 una gran exposición de arte moderno, donde estuvieron vetados todos los pintores antiguos a excepción de El Greco, una duda que ha recibido muchas respuestas y casi todas acertadas, este domingo nos formula otra cuestión: ¿En qué ciudad se derrumbó una catedral por pretender ser la más alta de Francia?

Back in 2019 to celebrate graduating from college and getting into the Master's program, Hannah and her friend Jamie used Costco travel to plan a trip. They paid one price for a round trip flight, a hotel stay in both Barcelona and Madrid as well as transportation to and from the airports. The trip was for 8 days! Barcelona: Stayed at the NH Collection Barcelona Podium HotelCustoms was really easy in Barcelona, and they made it there pretty quickly. Immediately after putting their luggage in the hotel room, went on a double decker bus tour of the city-this was a good idea because Hannah says they had some things planned but let the bus tour tell them where they would want to go after that.At night they went to Fonta Magica de Montjuïc and saw the coolest fountain and light show!After that they walked down to the restaurants to find some food and ended up at a rooftop bar in a hotel. Great drinks and food! It's called 173 Rooftop Terrace Tapas Bar.The next day they went to see the prize of Barcelona, the Sagadra Familia Basilica. This thing is MASSIVE. They went inside and looked at all the stained glass and got to go up in one of the turrets! She says it was scary and breathtaking.After this they ate lunch at a cute spot nearby called Casa Angela where she had the best croquetas and patatas bravas!After that they went to Parque Guell- which is one of Antoni Gaudi's most famous architecture works. It's like a botanical garden meets a surrealist painting. It is made up of interesting buildings and features built into the side of a mountain.Montserrat Monastery They then took a train from Barcelona to a sketchy little outpost station in the middle of the country. Hannah says they then took the scariest rickety cable car ride of her life up the mountain. It opens up at the top where you can see the craggy rocks of the mountainside. This area is a beautiful monastery that is built into the side of the mountain. It is known for having a black Madonna carved in the 12th century-known as “the dark one, our lady of Montserrat." It survived the storming of the abbey during the Spanish civil war.There are tons of things to do in this area: fun hikes, a few cafes, outside viewing of the living quarters of the monks and nuns, walking around the gardens with the holy water fountains, and listening to the choir and organ inside the nave.Madrid NH Collection Madrid AbascalThe next portion of the trip was Madrid! They took the train from Barcelona to Madrid, and had lunch service on the way, lots of fields, rural areas, not a lot of houses or villages but we saw a lot of farms, lots of pigs-Spain is known for their ham.On their first day in Madrid they went to the Royal Palace and got to see all of the rooms. Lots of history-over 3000 rooms, a grand staircase, beautiful art including “Salome with the head of John the Baptist”, and the royal armory! After the palace they explored more of the city. Text next day, went to the Del Prado Museum which is the classical art museum in Madrid-they got to see so many baroque paintings and Hannah's favorite painting Las Meninas by Diego Velasquez which is one of the most analyzed paintings ever.The next day they went to the modern art museum called the Reina Sofia—and saw the Picasso and Dali exhibits! Because it was a rainy day they spent a lot of time there. For almost every dinner in Madrid they went to this little tapas bar right down the road from the hotel because it was so good!! Hannah says she had ropa vieja empanadas and paella that was to DIE for-this place is called La Gabinoteca.Toledo Aka Castillo La Mancha They took the train from Madrid into the country and stopped at yet another sketchy outpost station! Toledo is Medieval walled city on top of a mountain that is surrounded by the Tagus river on three sides. It is the oldest city in Spain and built pre-Roman empire but captured by the Visigoth Kingdom after the fall of the Roman Empire in like the 5th Century. Known for being the “City of the Three Cultures” where there are heavy influences of Christians, Muslims and Jews throughout history. In the city you can still see mosques, cathedrals, and synagogues from over the centuries that hold art that is culturally and historically significant to those religions.Hannah and Jamie stopped at McDonalds and had some interesting combos—they have eggs on some of the sandwiches, and you can get just plain cherry tomatoes as a side. Top sites to see: Cathedral de Toledo-13 century cathedral Alcazar de Toldeo- the fortress during the Spanish Civil War, Military MuseumSinagoga Santa Maria La Blanca- one of two of the twelve surviving original synagogues in ToledoIglesia de Santo Tome-home of El Greco's  most famous work: “the burial of the count of Orgaz”

José Antonio Marina vuelve a poner a prueba el ingenio en su particular agencia de detectives. Primero, analizará las sorprendentes respuestas de los escuchantes a la incógnita que formuló en su anterior sección: ¿cómo se llamaban las dos parteras del niño Jesús que aparecen en los Evangelios Apócrifos?Con la tarea ya resuelta, abrimos un nuevo caso que tiene como protagonista al Greco. Cuando el pintor fallece en 1614, su figura -considerada por los tratadistas de arte como extravagante y caprichosa- se ve sumida en el olvido. Será en 1912 y de la mano de una exposición de arte contemporáneo cuando el artista viva un inesperado reconocimiento. Y ahí se centra precisamente la cuestión de esta semana: ¿en qué ciudad alemana se celebró la gran muestra de la que hablamos?Escuchar audio

We lost a real legend in Russ Nicholson this year. I can honestly say that Russ and his work sneak into my mind in short order whenever I talk about fantasy art at length, no matter the period. When we recorded this interview back in 2019, it was apparently his first appearance on a podcast, which seems bizarre considering how large his work looms over the hobby, then and now. I'll never not be bummed about a lack of Russ Nicholson in the world. Anyway, we couldn't record last week, so we thought it would be cool to bring this one out from the vault, a little in memoriam for his passing earlier this year. Original Show Notes:  This week, we talk to the incomparable artist Russ Nicholson. Russ has created countless iconic illustrations for tabletop RPGs - you probably best know his work from the original Dungeons & Dragons Fiend Folio or from countless fantasy gamebooks, like the Fighting Fantasy series. We chat about his work, his career, Ouija boards, Scottish accents and more in what, as far as Russ can recall, is his first podcast interview ever! A few notes directly from Russ after the fact: "Sorry about my memory and going off at side tangents so often but I enjoyed that...funny I have never talked in regards to the source of my artwork about the 'happenings' at our old house when I was growing up before. At least as I age, these awarenesses are rare and our present bungalow is so new there is nothing directly 'there.' Now artists - there are a few I especially rate (although I made a point of never copying) - Albrecht Durer, the Brueghals, Rembrandt, El Greco, Hals, Velazquez, the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, Mucha, Klimt, Toulouse Lautrec, Doré, Beardsley and Rackham, to name a few. Also pulps - Sax Rohmer, Howard, The Shadow, Weird Tales, Black Mask stories, Poe, Edgar Wallace, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Merrit, Hamilton, Jules Verne, Rider Haggard and the old pulp serials I saw at Saturday morning children's cinema - loved it all. From age ten on, when I left the countryside life for life in the city, I read a lot (up until then my mother thought I didn't read anything except comics). And that silent film I was trying to talk about - it had something similar, where a man is sitting by a rock pool (?) and these squidgy tentacled things (similar to the Grell toy Stu sent me) come out of the water and drag him to his doom. Scared me as a lad but I was in my teens so no screaming attacks (laf) and am still not fond." * * * Stu's book, Monsters, Aliens, and Holes in the Ground is for sale now! Buy it! Patreon? Discord?

Reciban un cordial saludo. Desde Cali (Colombia), les habla Sergio Luis López, compartiéndoles un nuevo episodio de "Así la escuché yo..." Luego de ocupar el tercer lugar en el Festival Mundial de la Canción Latina de 1970 con el tema musical “El triste”, el intérprete mexicano José José, lanzó un nuevo trabajo discográfico del cual fue éxito internacional la canción “La nave del olvido”. Así la escuché yo… Un año antes de la grabación que hiciera José José, ya el argentino Carlos Alberto Burlet, conocido artísticamente como El Greco, había publicado en 1969 su versión de esta canción en el álbum homónimo “La nave del olvido”. “La nave del olvido” es una composición del argentino Dino Ramos, cuya primera grabación la realizó la artista venezolana Mirtha Pérez, quien la presentó en el III Festival Buenos Aires de la Canción realizado en 1969 y con la cual obtuvo el segundo lugar en dicho concurso musical. ¿Y tú, conocías las versiones anteriores a las de José José?

Entrevista con Juan Carlos Arias sobre "El falsificador de Franco". En un oscuro rincón del mundo del arte, oculto tras la majestuosidad de las pinturas más famosas, se tejió una trama épica que desafiaría los límites de la creatividad y la astucia humana. En 1960, una denuncia por una estafa aparentemente insignificante desencadenó una revelación que dejaría al descubierto un entramado de plagios perfectos de los maestros consagrados: Velázquez, Zurbarán, El Greco, Mengs, Picasso, Ribera y muchos más. Todo comenzó con un falso bodegón de Velázquez que una condesa afirmaba haber comprado y que resultó ser una completa farsa. Tras la denuncia, la verdad salió a la luz: este cuadro en cuestión estaba ubicado en el Palacio del Pardo y fue "recomprado" por Carmen Polo, la esposa de Franco, como si fuera una ganga. Sin embargo, un valiente y experto policía en arte, quien también resulta ser el padre del autor de esta historia, desentrañó meticulosamente esta sofisticada red de engaños que se hacía llamar "Escuela sevillana" del siglo XX. Detrás de este plan maquiavélico se encontraban dos pícaros gais: Eduardo Olaya, un genio de la copia de pinturas, y Andrés Moro, un anticuario avaro. En Madrid, Virginia Guitián se convertía en el anzuelo perfecto para atraer a los compradores incautos. Mientras tanto, J.A. LLardent, A. Egea, Stanley Moss y Herbert Maier fingían como marchantes y exportadores de esta red delictiva. Desde la galería neoyorquina de Moss, museos y coleccionistas de todo el mundo pagaban cantidades exorbitantes por estos engaños sin fronteras, convirtiendo el fraude en una lucrativa empresa. Pero la historia no termina ahí. Después de que el Generalísimo vendiera el falso bodegón al Prado, Stanley Moss se aseguró de beneficiarse del Legado Villaescusa en 1993.

In the first episode of this new series of A brush with… Ben Luke talks to Matthew Krishanu about his influences—including writers, composers, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped his life and work.Krishanu, who was born in 1980 in Bradford, UK, is one of Britain's most distinctive painters. He draws on specific photographic images, including those of his family and his childhood in Bangladesh, yet his paintings are richly ambiguous, as he complicates his source material through emotion, memory, geopolitics, references to art history and literature, and the poetics of paint itself. He discusses the transformative experience of seeing Jean-Michel Basquiat's work, the ongoing influence of El Greco, his response to the work of Gwen John and the art in the caves of Ajanta in India, and his oeuvre's intimate connection with literature, film and music. Plus, he gives insight into his studio life and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?Matthew Krishanu, Anomie Publishing, 196pp, £30/€35/$40 (hb). Out now in the UK and Europe, published 20 April in the US. Exhibitions: Jhaveri Contemporary, Mumbai, 13 July-19 August; Tanya Leighton, Los Angeles, 11 November-11 December (tbc). Hosted on Acast.
