Spotlight on Venezuelan Culture at the World Poetry Festival


As you know, the World Poetry Festival is taking place in Venezuela, in its 17th edition, which I told you about in another publication.

I want you to know that it is a very important event and that it has a fairly complete calendar that, for those who are interested, I am going to post here the screenshot with the calendar of the next events that are going to take place.

And the link to the website where you can go to enjoy these events.

It is separated by each day and each event. On the website, you can get more information.

I think this is something that should sit here on the blockchain because it is a very important event that is sponsored by the government. Despite this, setting aside political differences from what the number of problems we currently have at a political level represents, it is important to put that aside and focus on what matters: this congress of different poets from many parts of the world and the importance of all the recitals, galas, concerts, book presentations, forums, that we have the opportunity to enjoy and see. So I think it's important that it prevails and that we make common ground and put all differences aside so that we can enjoy this.

For this reason, I share this video of the gala number 3 of the World Poetry Festival in Venezuela. Here you can see it.

And then there is a video of the Tradiciones de Venezuela group, a folkloric group that also represents Venezuelan values.

So that they also know those people in other parts of the world who do not have access to this type of information or perhaps the news does not broadcast it because they are not interested.

I, who am a common citizen, send them to you and present them here, precisely so that they are recorded in these different blockchains.

I know that some platforms are not blockchains and that I try to place this content in different media so that you can enjoy it, but this is the case of this blockchain in which I am publishing it, because it is worth doing so, and to say that it remains here permanently, as is the case with Steemit on this occasion. Well nothing, without further ado, here is the video (the link goes directly to the moment they do their interpretation): ..

This content is made especially for a friend in another part of the world @weisser-rabe who told me that the media did not spread or push this type of information because they were busy with their own things.

Despite the fact that the videos are not subtitled in Spanish, although the option is present on YouTube when activated, I tried it and it does not subtitle the videos in other languages, unfortunate, but I still consider that it is important to see the atmosphere that is enjoyed at the event and simply enjoy seeing the people who come and how the event itself unfolds.

I also share some images of the presentation and christening of the Book "Rain Album" that took place yesterday.

Presentation and christening of the book "Rain Album"

I am very happy for your attention and I hope that this cultural publication will encourage you and motivate you to know that there are people in the world who are working hard in the cultural area, making poetry, making music, writing songs and elaborating dreams so that others can continue dreaming and motivating themselves so that others can continue creating those new worlds in which we like to live.

Thank you very much and have a nice day.

A long list of poets who appear there.... Europe is keeping a low profile, it seems. A pity. But perhaps quite normal and natural.

I wish you an all-round successful event, many unique impressions and fruitful contacts!

Europe decided to be conservative and only people aligned with the political thought that this socialism preaches attended, the truth seems very sad to me because an event of this level should not be infected with those ideologies, but that is how things happen today. I suppose that each country watches over its interests.

But I also know that there are many bards like me who do not sell ourselves to those interests, we only go to create contacts, to find out what they are doing culturally in other countries.

I hope before Sunday to speak with several poets, and if possible to record a video, if it is possible for me to do so, I will try to post it here, so that they can enjoy the general atmosphere at the hands of a common citizen.

... because an event of this level should not be infected with those ideologies, but that is how things happen today. I suppose that each country watches over its interests.

This would be my intention, too. But reality...

Yeah, reality most It stinks more often than I like.

For this reason I take refuge in my stories, my stories where things are the way I like them, even the imperfections are perfect, because they are normal and do not alienate anyone =)
