“La lucha del hombre contra el poder es la lucha de la memoria contra el olvido.”Comenzamos el año con la voz única de Milan Kundera, quizá uno de los grandes novelistas del SXX todavía con vida. Miramos hacia Kundera buscando afianzar los cánones de la novela de nuestro tiempo. «La novela—dice— es como una síntesis de la filosofía, la narración, los sueños, el reportaje y la autobiografía». Sin alejarnos del SXXI regresamos a la Europa de finales de los años setenta con su cuarta novela «El libro de la risa y el olvido», una obra que mezcla varios géneros, un conglomerado de imágenes, reflexiones y vidas ajenas, que confluyen en el mar de los fanatismos y el amor —temas recurrentes en esta obra. La Republica Checa, su difícil historia, está narrada con crudeza, pero siempre con lealtad a su propia estética. La historia de la República Checa se reconstruye a partir de los diarios de Tamina —protagonista de la historia— y las cartas de amor de Mirekz. Esta obra, como otras del autor tiene una estructura narrativa poco convencional que, entre otras cosas, nos ha motivado su inclusión en nuestro Club de Lectura. «El libro de la risa y el olvido» es difícil de clasificar. Sin ser un libro de difícil lectura, se requiere un lector activo y preparado para el encuentro con el peculiar universo kunderiano. «Milan Kundera nació en Brno (República Checa) en abril de 2019 cumplirá noventa años.En su lengua materna escribió, en estricto orden de escritura, el volumen de cuentos El libro de los amores ridículos y las novelas La broma, La vida está en otra parte, El vals del adiós (La despedida), El libro de la risa y el olvido, La insoportable levedad del ser y La inmortalidad. Ya en francés, las novelas La lentitud, La identidad, La ignorancia y La fiesta de la insignificancia; la obra de teatro en tres actos Jacques y su amo. Homenaje a Denis Diderot; y cuatro ensayos: El arte de la novela, Los testamentos traicionados, El telón y Un encuento.». Tusquets Kundera, desde hace algunos años, es uno de los grandes favoritos al Premio Nobel de Literatura. Además de novelista, es poeta, ensayista, crítico literario y musicólogo. La música está presente en gran parte de su obra. Fue y es un gran admirador de Cervantes a quien rinde homenaje en su literatura. «Me veo a mí mismo como uno de los últimos artistas de la gran cultura centroeuropea, que está a punto de ser masacrada» En 1982 se publica la traducción de la obra por la editorial Seix Barral. Tusquets publica la última revisión de la obra en 2016.Traductor: Fernando de ValenzuelaCoordina la CATA la escritora Eva Losada Casanova.

Term Time Art Classes for Children
Working with an artist, children will explore art techniques, principles, processes, artist’s work and traditional arts from around the world–developing their skill, creativity and knowledge. Emphasis is on self-expression and experimentation, with children learning through examples of work, exploration and ‘play’.
We cover a range of media, including clay, drawing, painting, printmaking, collage and sculpture, with focus on process and the journey of learning, the result—high-quality artwork.
All materials and equipment are provided and included in the cost.
These sessions are education-based, but a lot of fun, designed for students who enjoy art and want to develop their skills.
Children needing tuition and supervision for their own artwork are welcome to attend.
Teacher/Artist
A practising artist and arts educator for fifteen years in the UK, Sophie has led hundreds of art projects for children as well as running training sessions for teachers working with children. Her artwork has been exhibited in a range of art galleries, with one series of sculpture housed in a permanent collection at Wolverhampton Art Gallery.
Through her workshops and classes, Sophie aims to inspire creativity, sparking imagination, curiosity and awe, while at the same time teaching practical art techniques, processes and knowledge.
Sophie also works in the world of nonverbal communication, her second life-long passion. Occasionally she teaches combined nonverbal communication and art workshops. You can read more on our sister website My Alcomy.

Why I Run Art Classes for Children
“Creatively talented children, often, don’t get the recognition they deserve or the support they need to develop their full potential. Yet, recognising and nurturing artistic talent can have a profound impact on improving skills, knowledge–and emotional wellbeing.
In the fifteen years I’ve been working in the arts with children, what I’ve found, time and time again is creative talent often goes unnoticed or is disregarded. It’s not the fault of teachers or parents–children simply haven’t been observed in an environment where their true talents shine.
I’ve realised many children who underachieve academically, thrive creatively–if given the right environment and opportunity. Oftentimes, the child hasn’t realised their talent either, simply because they haven’t experienced variety in art.
I’ve seen underachieving children, and their teachers, light-up on discovering outstanding artistic talent. I’ve seen parents and teachers emotionally touched to see their children performing well at something–achieving a high standard. I’ve seen children find their ‘why’ and discover their motivation for the future...seeing these responses is my ‘why’!
I’ve seen a lot of this because my aim was always to inspire creativity, sparking imagination, curiosity and awe, while teaching practical art techniques, processes and knowledge, that otherwise would remain out of reach.
When we nurture creativity in children, we set the foundations for a positive future. We not only develop art skills but create opportunities for new ways of thinking, improving problem-solving skills.
When we nurture creativity in children, we also encourage self-expression, providing opportunities for children to experience and express feelings and emotion. And to create art, which in turn, evokes emotion.
We celebrate uniqueness and diversity and introduce new cultural experiences and traditions–learning through art.
We create opportunities for children to be mindful and fully immersed in a flow state, through meaningful projects.
We create their future!”
— Sophie
