Inspiración. Creación. Metamorfosis | Denise De La Rue | TEDxUComillas


[Applause]

they live in one of the most

special to me because it was here in

Madrid where a few years ago and one of

the most wonderful experiences in my

life manages to do what until that

then they had only made two

people before my photographing works

art teachers in the meadow museum

imagine the meadow museum just

for me it was a dream come true and

I would like you to imagine the

silence and lack of movement in the

Museum

the feeling of peace and restlessness

at the same time before entering the

room I knew exactly where I was going

to direct my gaze to my favorite painting

from Velázquez las Meninas that I’ve seen

a thousand times and I will surely see it a thousand times

times more but that day was different

I was in front of the work of

who gives herself and I discovered it as

if it was the first time I saw him with

the same intensity as if it were the

last

flashes and minutes after suddenly

boom

this extrasensory sensation

completely disempower me

I’m not talking about the simple for the

pleasure and joy to contemplate something beautiful

it’s really that I felt united with

him all that is for me the beauty a

direct connection to the league

art is the pursuit of beauty its

interpretation his intervention

I think that artists are an instrument

of that using beauty to

recreate to manifest for

reinvent yourself in the ways and that’s my

proposal for you to reinvent yourself

through beauty I’m not

talking about the profanity of glamor and

of attractiveness I’m not talking about the

magnificence of the sublime of grace

of the unit of proportion

I’m talking about finding what

inspires us to be excited and that we

invade

that awakens our spiritual being and

that connects us with our essence

because that makes us better people

I propose now to analyze the

objectivity of beauty that can be

more objective than the number the

proportion now although questioned by

many in the history of art the

we can find in the masterpieces

of painting

some also relate it to the

sacred geometry in which

stimulate both hemispheres of

our brain through a series

combination of elements in the

image that helps us understand what

in some intuitive way we already know without

doubt is a complex issue but what

true is that there is a common point in

all these reflections and is that

subjectivity and objectivity shake

hand on a theme like that of beauty

because far from adjusting to the dogma without

certainties is constantly reinvented to

through those who the

experience nature

we are also going in search of this

connection that has seated us one day of

summer to see the sunset

maybe trying to find the ray

green that described July verne in

any of those books or maybe uploaded to

the top of a mountain and ready and

discovered a new horizon

great also the most everyday

there is beauty

maybe we had not realized that

our plants have started to

bloom and have left home

thinking spring is here

also this theme of beauty be

addressed from a medical point of view

which is very interesting in 1817 says

level is the best French writer

known with the pseudonym of extenda

he visited the basilica for the first time

the santa croce of florence ay

described that he experienced a series of

sensations emotions of

fading dizziness and vertigo

produced by the enormous beauty that

I was contemplating all these were

grouped in a syndrome

nowadays the stendhal syndrome does not

it serves to explain the waves and deep

emotion

is that they arouse the contemplation of

beauty can not be inspired can you

thrill but what has most made me

touched lately was when is

preparing the intervention assembly

angel laz the hermitage of san antonio de

the florida that is famous for its frescoes

goya because he and his remains

they rest there and I had the feeling that

ball and I will tell you

after before it negotiates the

description of the installation of five

light boxes photographs in large

format in which five wonderful

Spanish actresses used for me to

become the angels

contemporaries of goya as a tribute

that Goya painted in frescoes

also install a great floor cleared

generating this duplicity game of

so typical of the 18th century

and there I was in the middle of him being

of the museum of media technicians and

hurry listening to the music too

that is part of my intervention in

space

when I stepped on the ground for the first time

cleared

I felt really fly it was real

the feeling that it was flying was so

ethereal but at the same time so real and almost

physical I felt that I rose from

sensations like this was born my

artistic vocation of this huge

I want to feel connected with the

levels of feeling that for a moment

left my identity aside let’s

be denis and I connect with the top

that’s why I like to find these games

of mixed to mix the old with what

modern what’s above and what’s below what

real and the imaginary

light and darkness so that each

person find your entrance to these

universes their

but that is very important that before

they were for the door we took off the

watch or even I dare to ask them

something still much more revolutionary

I do not know if they will accept

that turn off the mobilize pp

let’s recover the capacity of

contemplation that deserves a work of

art have not fixed that many times

in museums people who spend

more time reading the technical sheet

than seeing the work of art in themselves

we have to go back to enjoy the

beauty

we need your light to live and still

I could say that up to that

can save us

for example the poem invictus to which

I used nelson mandela to

inspire yourself to strengthen yourself even though

be for an instant escape in your mind

of that reality of being almost 30 years

in prison if we understand that beauty

use the forms to connect the dawn of

the people because we all want to be

part of that collection of this

encounter with ourselves and with

let’s make them persist in our

memory sensations beautiful images

we have our lives from them

chasing the bands time and

space you need before I say goodbye

I would like to ask you only about

seconds more your attention actually

they are not for me but for one of my

favorite data works the night

star of van gogh

I would love that the one contemplated in the

together

I will always remember this day in which

we all pay a small tribute to what

beautiful

thank you very much
