CUIDADITO COMPAY GALLO … by Abel Quintero
Como
amo de un harén de gallinas, presume su gallardía ante las hembras y arrojo
ante los intrusos. Resguarda su propiedad con pico y espuelas, armas que
utiliza cuando el influjo de su orgullo es insuficiente. Aunque su canto
mañanero lance un desafío territorial, para nosotros es el alegre anuncio del
amanecer.
Tal
como una melodía conocida recuerda lugares y sucesos, el cantío de un gallo
evoca el aroma a hierba sin pisar y aire húmedo del campo. Traslada la
sensación de un hilo de luz dorada que a través de las hendijas juguetea con
nuestros ojos aún cerrados, despertando la esperanza de un nuevo día.
La
danza mortal de sus riñas son un espectáculo de movimientos y colores a los que
pocos se resisten; carne de apuestas por un lado, y controversias éticas por el
otro, pero también un motivo recurrente para artistas.
El
gallo reaparece en el lienzo interpretado de diversas formas, pero más allá de
exhibir su belleza, provoca la ternura de quienes reconocen su debilidad. Por
ello también representa a quienes ostentan sus logros sin ser conscientes de la
vanidad de sus actos, hasta que un “periquito con agallas“ le increpe;
“Cuidadito compay gallo“.
Bienvenidos
a este nuevo encuentro en el Milander Center of Arts y disfrutemos juntos de
esta muestra galliforme.
Pero
nada de machismos que aunque el gallo sea gallo, la gallina sigue siendo quien
pone los huevos.
In addition to this collective gem,
will bring us painted tapestries of
South Florida Mangrove Trees in "Silent Sentinels of Biscayne Park"
This current exhibit is part of the community artists program that serves as an outlet for the works of artists who have been inspired by the beauty of the park.
