Art in Caracas

Caracas has many nice museums, all with no entry fee. I have explored the art museums a few times, my favorite is the museum of modern art. It is a pretty big space, and the building is formed sort of like a maze. At the bottom of the maze they have a large collection of Picasso sketches, and a pretty wide collection other big international artists, like Henry Moor. They have a big video art area, with four screens always playing, and a computer lab where you can watch more. I am attracted to video art because it can capture the modern senses more effectively than still images and show progression of a theme. However, I have only seen about two different pieces that I liked. One was in San Francisco, and the other was here in Caracas. The One in Caracas was interesting because it showed the photos of barrios filling up a hillside. It is hard to show a concept of change in still life, so the use of photo and video made sense.
I have been struggling to show what I have been learning in paintings. Everything here is in process. It is experimental and in transition, so I need to find a way to express that. So far I have finished a painting of a woman in a education mission, and I am working on a painting that shows a working woman in the center of a barrio. The message I am trying to show is that this is her situation, and she is the center of this community.
