La llovizna
En los poros rezuma su olor y nos devuelve
el abierto caudal de la sangre. Es el don
de la llovizna. Apenas contemplada se olvida,
o calla en las moreras venturosas.
La infancia
es un silencio enorme.

El Asombro
Todo es más exacto que mis labios.
Que nada me dé voz
para nombrarme.
Dulce esta mudez que me hace humana,
forma exacta del aire,
ternura de luz que antes de ti
fue tu sombra bella posada entre las cosas.

Amor dormido el habla
te diré en qué nos convertiremos.
La ternura como dormidos,
sin ropa y entre harapos
los brazos apoyados en las sienes.
Pulmones disminuidos.
Ojos apagados donde el habla.
Rumores faltos de aire
y de golpe, el silencio
que nos llevará a la infancia
y nos obligará a huir de nosotros
como de las palabras.

Escritos que se vuelan de la tapa de los sesos
es hora de introducir flores en la tierra
y de extraer piedras de la carne
acalla tu blusa
no me hables con la muerte abierta
llevo al pequeño protocolo de la mano
y lo abandono en los centros comerciales
toma el megáfono
es hora de convocar lo que se nos había perdido
no me ofrezcas tu hombro
seguro que tú también quieres llorar
seguro que tú también quieres desenterrar tu rostro
II
dos muñecas intactas resguardan la salida
la sangre es una niña
y juega sola
a darle cuerda al corazón
a construir casas con los huesos
a entrar y salir del sentimiento
sin haberlo entendido
III
voy que muerdo
mis dientes adelantan mis palabras
como verdades
sin masticarlas
enteras
es así como terminan
iluminando mis entrañas
la oscuridad de adentro
que siempre mira hacia afuera
palabras que son alimento
y hambre
y aire
y violencia
de estar y no estar en este mundo
IV
ésta es la hora de los pájaros
el aire se ensucia de palomas
y es difícil darle otro nombre a lo que vuela
he visto el último de los escaparates
antes de que la noche hiciese imposible
ver el costo de las cosas
la ciudad se me hace insostenible
la dejo caer
sobre la almohada
hoy nada soñaré
simplemente
dejaré que tu voz me enseñe
mientras duermo
algún idioma útil
para atravesar el cemento
para guarecerme de la lluvia
ácida
de tantas soledades

Artistas marginales (Art Brut or Outsider Art)

The development of the awareness of forms of creative expression that exist outside accepted cultural norms, or the realm of "fine art", began with the researches of psychiatrists early in the century.
The work of Dr Morganthaler documented his patient Adolf Wolfli, a genius who produced countless thousands of works from a small cell in his Swiss asylum. Dr Hans Prinzhorn collected thousands of works by psychiatric patients and his book "Bildernerei der Geisteskranken" (Artistry of the Mentally Ill), published in 1922 became an influential work amongst Surrealist and other artists of the time.
One artist who was particularly affected by the works Prinzhorn presented was Jean Dubuffet. Together with others, including Andre Breton, he formed the Compagnie de l'Art Brut in 1948 and strove to seek out and collect works of extreme individuality and inventiveness by creators who were not only untrained artists but often had little concept of an art gallery or even any other forms of art other than their own.
Dubuffet's concept of Art Brut, or Raw Art, was of works that were in their "raw" state, uncooked by cultural and artistic influences. He built up a vast collection of thousands of works, works which bore no relation to developments in contemporary art and yet were the innovative and powerful expressions of a wide range individuals from a variety of backgrounds.
Dubuffet's great collection was eventually granted a permanent home by the city of Lausanne and the Collection de l'Art Brut is now one of the most powerful and overwhelming art museums to be found anywhere in the world.
A parallel development to the awareness of paintings, drawings and sculptures which fell into the sphere of Art Brut, was the discovery of environmental creations by a similar range of people. One of the most famous of these, the Palais Ideal, built by the postman Cheval, received much attention from the Surrealists who admired his ability to realise his dream in this incredible structure, the product of thirty years of devoted toil.
In Los Angeles, the extraordinary Watts Towers, the product of a similar commitment by an Italian immigrant worker, Simon Rodia, became the first step in the realisation of a vast number of environments to be found right across North America.
Today the increased awareness of all these forms of expression has led to a network of small organisations in both Europe and the United States devoted to the preservation of such works and the support of their creators. Similar collections to the one in Lausanne have been established in many countries and exhibitions of different aspects of the phenonema are a regular occurence. The diverse influence of all these forms is now apparent in the work of an increasing number of "trained " artists who have turned their back on changing trends and fashions to try and form a truly singular reality for themselves.
Michel Thevoz, Curator of the Collection de l'Art Brut in Lausanne has written the following:
"Art Brut", or "outsider art", consists of works produced by people who for various reasons have not been culturally indocrinated or socially conditioned. They are all kinds of dwellers on the fringes ofsociety. Working outside fine art "system" (schools, galleries, museums and so on), these people have produced, from the depths of their own personalities and for themselves and no one else, works of outstanding originality in concept, subject and techniques. They are works which owe nothing to tradition or fashion.A firm distinction should be made between "art brut" and what is known as "naif art". The naif or primitive painters remain within the mainstream of painting proper, even if they fail ingenuously to practise its style. However, they accept its subjects, technique (generally oils) and even its values, because they hope for public, if not official recognition. "Art brut" artists, on the other hand, make up their own techniques, often with new means and materials and they create their works for their own use, as a kind of private theatre. They choose subjects which are often enigmatic and they do not care about the good opinion of others, even keeping their work secret. "

Fragmento del diario de Alejandra Pizarnik (2)
La conciencia no existe, pero aún así no hay derecho a tanto irse, a tanto viaje alrededor de mí. Vanidad del deseo físico. Espectro de mi cuerpo. Yo soy una aunque me desdoble. Aunque me destripe. Una. ¿Lo comprendo, acaso?
Alejandra Pizarnik
