(Updated the date of completion of the exhibition, at the bottom) We went to the re-opened Museum of Modern Art in Buenos Aires (Mamba) more in order to visit the Palacio de Correos (Corrientes 172, 2nd floor), since there This museum remains until the completion of renovation works of its original building, located in San Juan to 350, which saw works of art. But I think the picture that is above and the phrase contained in it were a pleasing surprise of those that museums often give away.
The point is that with its re-opening, presented the Mamba shows Noah in line, a career retrospective of the artist's 74-year-old Argentine Luis Felipe Noe (Gaspar Noe's father, film director of films like Irreversible and against all Solo ). While not all the shows I got both, which it touched me was the artist's intimate relationship with the words inside some of his drawings.
Few artists dare to insinuate interpretations or encouragement with words in his pictures, I guess for fear that define the work, if we can define a work of art. But Noah not only bet quite a psychoanalytic thoughts, but that introduces a form so pure and unedited, which, far from defining their images, shot in a thousand different directions by inviting a brainteaser from the drawings.
For my sentimental nature that the more I liked was Reflections on love, if I remember the title, and particularly the phrase "imbeciles, love is not a suppository against loneliness." The table was littered with good lines but unfortunately I took the photo does not have the sharpness to translate them all.
If you have patience, I include a link to larger version of the photo so that they can find them. For now share another piece legends down with "Everything is a mystery but nothing is absurd, just us" and sympathetic "Life is a mystery but it is also a large paperboard."
As closing, here is a very good note it did to Noah in the Argentine newspaper La Nacion.
"Everything is a mystery but nothing is absurd, only us," said Noah in the mural.

Yes, (although some will come to mind) can be. However, most places titles to his paintings. What leaves me thinking about how to change the perception of a box when words that, potentially, what 'defines' are just outside the box, how and when they are inside and out. And what will happen to the "Untitled"? ... I leave thinking, che .... What a thing, right? ...
