What Is A Paragraph For A Wedding Card

Point Close

Bad luck to start the blog, edited stops Point Arts.

This Spin weekly newspaper, brings me good memories. I remember when even as a student every Tuesday at distributed free and disputed that it was to get one. It was the first medium to be aware of the exhibitions in Madrid and in other provinces, of the various awards that had in each specialty , comments and reflections by artists to of last page, which combined with the 'Jasmine and Garbage "was the first thing I always liked to read. Long before the Internet era was the POINT. It was essential to know about different contests Painting, both quick as dry (that bit I like the quick , and it's dry), who won, that works, etc. was almost forced an appointment, go every week to Madrid this small kiosk near where the decibels and the Lord John had saved me, and quickly take the telefomo and inform colleagues of the various contests that had been published that week .

still remember the first critic who posted on my site, it was Juan Antonio Tinte .................. Only


thank both Jose Perez Guerra (the Director), and all its members, for these 22 years of information. THANKS.


This is the text by which, through its online edition, the Point of Art bids farewell to his readers.:

"THE POINT OF ARTS stops publishing"
Jose Perez Guerra -Director
-----
The fall of advertising in recent months and very poor prospects after pressing to our advertisers, have recommended the immediate closure of the weekly newspaper "The Point of Art", after more than 22 years of publication. In its first issue, the April 14, 1986, we note our purposes: "We are born without presentation party, without ostentation of any kind. Small, because we in the first breath. But we claim to grow, to make this shoot a tree generous, capable of serving, by way of communication, promoting the arts and to clarify and strengthen a market that still moves out into the byways Third, more or less information itself that lacks a coherent coverage. "The Point", we believe, comes on time, when Spain was conjecture new times, when the foundations of modernity makes it possible to raise our cultural building to a height not only look beyond the Pyrenees, but, More importantly, in Spain itself. So we intend to be with those who work, with which created and marketed, with that report and also the supporters, in one way or another, responses to challenge English today that we still have an open point.
We have released 938 numbers. And more than 30,000 pages has been written the history of the arts for more than two decades, somewhere between the XX and XXI centuries. "The Point" has been a major national broadcast, we read "beyond the Pyrenees and beyond Atlantic. Rooted in Spain itself as the only means of cultural information that overcomes the divisiveness of a nonsensical world as open, because even the mainstream media general have regional editions. It is precisely their widespread deployment in the market that generates advertising costs that are not covered. So close. For "Art and Heritage, SA", its editor, is not a business practice, acts as an NGO.
"The Point" has been a professional commitment director after many years working in the financial press - "Info rmation Economics," "Five Days" -. A job as exciting as selfless as selfless contribution has been the deputy director and in that period we have seen born and grow from the National Centre de Arte Reina SofĂ­a, then National Museum, the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, the IVAM in Valencia, the MEIAC Badajoz or MACBA in Barcelona, \u200b\u200band consolidate the work of artists who were the first references in our pages and now have on the international circuit.
When parting, it hurts us deeply is that staff has made our team, so exemplary in the drafting and administration, remain unemployed. To them all our love. And thanks to advertisers and subscribers, because they are the ones that were until now the coverage needed to maintain our presence so long weekly.
were born without coming out party, and cease to exist with the same style. Precisely in the week when the director turns 80. A very appropriate age, by experience that accumulates to continue writing.
