I came to accompany a group of
actors in a march with a group of
indigenous people who were asking for their
rights at the book fair was going to
present a book at that fair and this
group of indigenous people what they asked was not
that this book was banned but the
people knew that in that book I was
telling a story about his town
that was not the real one then
they wanted to at least raise their hands and
saying here is also our truth
that maybe it’s different from the one
present in the book and that is necessary
that we know also we left the
book fair to accompany the
indigenous people and I learn because they
they spoke absolutely of the heart
some words they said were in their
languages and I did not understand them and at the same time
if you understood he understood them and this
talk about that magic that I want it to be
because sometimes we understand someone who
they speak another language and we leave the
book fair and we went up to square
Italy a place there in Palermo in
Buenos Aires and a few meters
our mattress had a mattress
marriage where they were sitting a
group of six to ten boys who owed
to be between 6 and 15 years old and I looked at them
an absolutely moved moment
impressed also with what was
watching was a group of guys smoking
cocaine base paste and inhaling
glue with a bag
I came to carry out some programs
testimonials program that I did
we wanted to do urban and had talked
with a lot of people that I thought very
distant very far from me
I think I had finished understanding
that we are stuck
we are all together we are the store
the same heart but not what
let’s understand and I decided to approach this
group of guys saw that the general
that action of the guys from smoking pasta
base or inhale glue was what
has somehow alienated people
I needed to get closer to that because of
somehow I felt it was to approach
myself to my own problems
to my own darkness is that my
own follies and I sat with them in
the mattress and I started talking to them
and in a moment I told one that I was
sitting next to me who was 11 years old
that was with the bag of glue and
I told him why you do not leave the bag and I
he said he grabbed and it was a first pineapple
to my middle class position declared
how easy it is to say it
how difficult it is to understand putting yourself in the
place of the other or clearly understand that
is what the other is living in
silence for a while because I did not have
answer and I preferred not to say any and
hotels so far I said no
would like to paint draw write
photograph and this guy is worth with his 11
years he answered me the following I swear
and this I say always I’m not going to change
not a comma of what my son told me if
I need a place to express what
what happened to me and it was the beginning of a
new birth me is I understood that a
what I had asked myself 30 years
of my life they were doing something that I
I had wanted to give birth for many
years were doing in that precise
instant and the pair but the obstetrician was
an 11 year old boy who has helped
to be understood from where I could
be more not yet
and help others to also be and
they also help me do
son and to organize I’m going to put together a space
I’m going to provide you with a place
I know musicians I know painters
I know photographer I am an actor and there
was born a space that is called to the house
of the culture of the street I only dreamed
like a big house where I wanted that
the guys lived guys who were
on the street or guys who came out
correctional homes or guys that
they will simply need a place where
spend the night and live I wanted that
they slept there that the morning
they will raise the school and that when
they came back from school my dream was that
they had music theater classes
painting as if it were an academy of
arts and that at night
will operate a theater a room
exhibitions where they could do
his works to exhibit his photographs
paintings that was a theater plus a
cultural center more than the city of
buenos aires where people could go
pay the entrance to see the work and the
guys could understand that they could
live could put together a cooperative
to live from what they did from what
they were the ones who pulled out it was very complicated
put together that space because I was hitting
many doors and they told me not to
or they asked me to photograph the boys
to give me a house and have companies
I asked for help they said good but
put the cap on the boys and
I also decided not to have
In short, it ends up putting together a space
which is ambulatory where we go
a very large group of people
we started working with 20 guys in
innovate in this home
we started teaching theater classes was what
first we did
we ended up working with 2,500 3,000
guys across the country
but this work that we do that is
a very beautiful job because it is a
work that we do both
the workshop and the boy or the guys
they are fine at times a very
hard because there are some situations that
they can not be solved even if one puts
all your heart and all your love
some of those guys maybe for the
cachetazos
maybe from the back of a society of
a family of governments
some of them are already condemned to
a shipwreck and they fall on the road but
start to happen some things that are
those that start to give one the pattern
that everything has some meaning in a
moment determined to enter the house of
the culture of the street
we started to work in the
neighborhoods
when I entered the house I mean
what this talk is called the house
open the house to house the culture of
the street is also this no I am
part of that and you are also
part and it’s not a creation of mine is a
creation
that’s why I say it ‘s a heart someone
under that idea
someone under that idea all those who
we do and the house of the street culture is
an absolutely open place but I
I say come in or go out we start
to work with a boy
accidentally it was called alejandro was a
boy who had been admitted to
point of dying by base paste
cocaine also for paco at six
years
had had an overdose that had
been interned when he came to us
we started working with him
we started to give theater classes a
boy who did not look that did not raise the
seen a boy who did not speak but who
slowly as the
time began to look up
he started to look at us he started to look at himself
the other is a beacon in life that does not
We are lost
the other reflects something of our
own story and started to look at us
began to recognize began to
enjoy began to talk about the
theater improvisations until a
day to the end of that year that was the year
from his awakening also a sample of
theater of all disciplines to the
that we worked was a
shows that it was done in a theater very
large theater of five hundred people
the theater was full and I was
sitting with my father there is still the
artistic director of the house of the
street culture and I was
fascinated with everything I was seeing
groups were entering and doing their works
their sketches or they sang and danced
they showed his drawings paintings but
I was waiting for that boy to that boy
which symbolically represented almost
all what you see on the street and
beyond that there are many governments and
politicians who believe that every time there
to lower more the age to get
faster in and not in
beautiful creative spaces but within
jails within general spaces
repressive
that boy who at that time already had
eight years
Alejandro represented all those bel
air to all those was all of us
also until in a moment
determined to enter his group and
act and went out and look beyond
that was with the whole group was fixed
in him and he danced and sang with a
joy in sight in the look in your
body that I say today beyond that
I am an actor and I dedicate myself to this today
I’m acting nothing comes back to me
the emotion of seeing a kid who was
without talking without looking up
dancing and enjoying and laughing and in that
moment I did not understand something but still
I need to understand something else when
ends ends in its representation it
stop the eight children who are part
from that group
they start to say hello while everyone
we were sitting in the
public applauded moix and the only one who
not that he did not wave
typical of an actor with an artist was
I was watching him, fascinated by the applause
of all of us I had the view
fixed on him is at a moment later
a few minutes they go to their classmates
after a minute of applause
fascinated also stays to the is only
all of us who were still
applauding
we started to lower the applause and at least
looked at all of us and approached the
edge of the stage grabbed a
microphone that had and followed us
watching the theater’s silence was huge
already told him today is the happiest day of
my life left the microphone and left
I looked at my father who was at
side and cried
I started crying because
father and go to someone who was
my left I was an actress who
I had gone to see him and I cried
realize that we were all crying and
between we were crying created by this
not to see us in the other to understand
that happiness a kid is not that of
that kid in mine calls and
listen to him and there he ends up
understand something more than I asked
why he had said that and he told me
that they had given a thing to their 8
years
neither did a comma change him is that the
applause noise is the same noise the
a slap on the face and that he had been able to change
cachetazo that received by applause and
that’s why the happiest day of his
life and I imagined the night of ale
in the home he lived because he did not
they lived their parents lived in a home
just in bed and I started to imagine
the beds of all the guys in that
home
I started thinking about these guys
most of them have never
sung a lullaby and I thought
that’s what I want to generate now with
the house of street culture
lullabies an album of songs
of cradle written by those songs
written by them
I went to see many producers
initial music is not viable not
you want to do with him he left songs
of cradle written by them and after
give it to musicians surely it was called
some musicians are going to say yes
they were going to put melody music to those
songs and so the project started my
father insisted that if we had to
do it and asia already we did a
very beautiful work of lullabies
that is part of a lot more work
broad that we do with each one
of the boys and what the boys do with
us and already at this height I would mix
all of us are the boys the
guys wrote lullabies
because it was also a reparative fact
they had not been sung
lullaby but they are going to
sing a lullaby his children
and somehow to change a
reality was to close or open a circle
new or leave behind vicious circles
that are repeated
sadly in our societies and
they started to work beautifully
They finished composing the songs
songs are obviously sometime and if
more others are more raw because the
art that has helped me to
express myself in life and also to
leave behind a bunch of demons
I also consumed substances that in
I was not really approached by anyone
they were moving me away from me more than
no one
those lullabies we throw them and for
I’m taking things that I heard from
the previous talks or the
previous songs those songs from
cradle the letters
we aspire like bottles to the sea
we send those songs a
bunch of musicians hoping to
that they put melody and some
musicians immediately responded
like those songs those bottles
they were thrown with love because a
bottle can be broken to threaten
someone a bottle can update
drunk many and dizzy and void
our visits a bottle is also
a message according to place a bottle
it could be full of love and
so it was done like that was filled
bottle with love and the return that
came from each of the musicians was a
little also what they said and today the
being able to go towards the goal together does not matter
this point without crossing previously gave
we cross all if we cross one we cross
everybody
If so, humanity also today
I was thinking about the plate cavern
I also thought just while
listened to the previous classmates in
the stars I am not a city where
He looked at the sky I do not see a fucking star
and I go out and there is another reality when one
comes out the reality that knows and understands
that there’s another one when you get out of this
understands that there is this when one comes out
of the lights
I thought that others do not know
they wanted and then as well as spinetta
it took a while to write like this
as Uruguayan musicians like Fernando
cabrera hugo fattoruso in the second
disco martín buscaglia
putting love I want to have this
I’m closing the relay and opening
also because I wish the house of the
culture that has a direction of
Internet
I think that the first time a game that
he was always quite far from these
cybernetic issues but in reality
doubt because as I say it is a house
open a legacy one can add what
be
the address is triple w a cuca a cuca
is is c / u is rg point or rate
I want to tell something before closing what
is what happened with the first musician
whom I called and that’s why I say that the
Love returns with love I did not say it
I said I did not say no to the morgue
it says what the leaders say
spirituals of the beginning of history
one day he phoned with
very scared I’m afraid to go with the
project forward and one in these
talks about what we are talking about is about
fear and beat him called Ricardo
musso and the phone rings a couple sounds
of times and the other side tell me now
ricardo continues that gastón pauls silence
of God
ashton I do not understand tells me gastón pauls
I do not understand how this one had and
because I’m on the mountain in tilcara
in a place where there is no signal
I do not understand how my cell phone rang and
well look but I do not know what they call you or
not film poetry is so magical
something must be happening and now I’m calling you
for a record of lullabies me
said dale shame I tell him what
sent to the letters said magda me the
he did when he came down to tilcara I got into
a computer and I read all the letters
the son one and then he calls you and I give you
the song at some point I said good
Thank you cause or lehman of the
songs the lyrics and I said good a month
and half two months will call me
and the next day my phone rings
expenses or water or whatever it won this
downtown friends and I have the song
like having the song my son so
I chose one that is super simple and you
he put music and I want tomorrow
They listened I go back to Buenos Aires
he said and we were in my house
and went to Ricardo’s house and put the
song and obviously there is a crybaby to
final was due mainly to the song
for several reasons because it was the first
song because he had brought me some
dolls of tilcara that after
we use as the disc cover because it’s
song that he chose the lyrics was from
nahj and naja him and is one of the girls
I love most about the house of culture
street and that is also a fanatic Ricardo
musso ricardo did not know
then start saying how they come together
part of hearts to put together a
bigger heart and also because my
father had insisted a lot so that
that disc will be carried forward and no longer
was present in this plane in some
another plane in some other dimension and
also of that we speak today not when
one runs so many kilometers 90 in another
dimension does not stop understanding that one
he runs on land and also understand
which is connected
as would say charly garcía with all
other communicated with all others and
somehow then I want to close
with that
in the encounter with the bridge between a
girl who could sing a song
cradle write a lullaby for
a daughter with a musician who meets with
that poetry and they end up composing something
together
that for me is to reach the goal together
the house of culture on the street follows
working took out the second album we’re going
by a third party
that is simply the visible face of a
I work as I said at the beginning of everyday life
sometimes beautiful, sometimes very sad
that allowed me to find myself
with myself I lose myself again and I
I find again and in the song that
are going to hear now that this created the
simplest song of the two discs
there are very sad songs very delicate
very deep very dense as I said
alfredo the dense and dense word of
most beautiful place of the word also
and this is the simplest and I want to close
with this song because this song
in a space like this one either
polluted so pure I still find it
which is the tribute that I want to make
many of the guys who are no longer
Alejandro who was the first boy that
He said he needed a place to
express what was happening I did not see
never again and it is for those who have fallen
for those who are not present today
some because they also went to another
flat some because they decided it was
better not to continue with the expression
artistic but offered and I propose
listen to that song for those who are going to
come also for those of you
also in your life you can summon for
that you can embrace that in
reality is not more than as I said before
a hug of one with oneself not like that
what talk ends here
but the talk actually continues because
all this that we are doing is
music
and
