Pizarnik was employed in the department of Philosophy and Letters at the Universidad de Buenos Aires where she published her first book of poetry, La tierra más ajena (1955). Pizarnik followed her debut work with two more volumes of poems, La última inocencia (1956) and Las aventuras perdidas (1958). Later she lived and worked in Paris before ending her life on September 25, 1972 at the age of 36.
Feminism is the idea of ending discrimination against women. Feminism should not be used as a tool to send our society back to the dark ages where people pretend they are not sexual beings, women must hide their bodies from view, and what you wear is more important than who you are.
I do my fair share of eating out. I frequent some of the most delicious new establishments around town.
I am rarely disappointed, and for that I am thankful. It is unfortunate that a gap is arising. Do we have too many tapas bars?
I couldn't comprehend how something as feared and precious as a whale so easily morphed into an objectified tool for cheap entertainment – satisfying the public’s addiction to slightly contraband novelties with which we can interact, and feel powerful as we leer smugly over the lifeless remains of an unfamiliar potential threat, praising ourselves for being so brave.
WA Designer Installation was a new event at the Perth Fashion Festival this year that promised to be an “entirely different experience from traditional runway shows.”
The event sees Mash Brewing Co., The Monk Brewery and Kitchen, and Colonial Brewing collaborating and throwing in their own group of brewers for ultimate glory.
On Friday October 3 Perth’s Indie Rock scene legends hailing from Fremantle, KING’S JUSTICE, hosted their highly anticipated single launch at Ya-Ya’s in Northbridge.
As Gone Girl begins, the studio logos appear as predicted but there is something slightly off. The 20th century fox logo fades at what must be only a second (if not less) sooner than usual and this slight change in custom leaves one acutely aware that we are being played with and we lose a certain degree of comfort, leaving us feeling rather unsure of where the screen will take us.
When a friend of mine told me that she had tickets to this year’s Perth Fashion Festival I was more than happy to tag along, despite being feeling fashionably unfashionable…I wonder how many times the word fashion can be used until it becomes ridiculous
A variety of quirky lines and short hems in the costume collection were a highlight in terms of their imaginative and even challenging qualities.
Overall, the brand seems to be expanding exponentially with plans to move their brand over to the US. The vibe at Fashion Paramount proved to be enthusiastic but collected.
All the time it is being said that Perth is in transition. Not quite dullsville, not quite the bright lights of Sydney or Melbourne (yet). I was recently asked what I wanted to do with my one and precious life – it’s interesting to consider for Perth.
The tour includes a 29th of November date at their beloved home-away-from-home the Rosemount, and if any one of you enjoys anything about the Poison City inspired punk rock resurgence you should grab a ticket before they are unavailable.
When American Beauty was first released it was met with pretty much universal acclaim; and the Oscars, with their love of all things in love with Americana, melodrama and mature seriousness, found American Beauty to be the best film of the year. The film also took numerous other Academy Awards, including best screenplay for Ball, best director for Sam Mendes and best actor for Kevin Spacey. It also won several Golden Globes but like, is that even a real thing anyways.
This whole film pieced together is bursting with stories and lines of narration that at first seem to be cluttered en masse, soon prove to be beautifully crafted together in a familiar and deliberate manner.
In Perth today - unheralded and unknown - there is a group of Illustrators who are quietly setting about attempting to redefine how we view the world, and the role that "art" plays within it.
Back in the old days, television was regarded as the “inferior cousin” to cinema, but that is not the case anymore. This year’s Emmys is a good example to illustrate how much that tide has turned, and television’s ascension to being the home for quality visual storytelling and characterisation.
But as we know by this time it was already the school of thought that if you were to remake a film, you must add something new, do something different; but Van Sant opted against this and demanded that if he were to do it, he must do a true remake. The film must be a shot-for-shot, score-for-score, moment by moment redoing of what Hitchcock did. His thinking was pretty much; who was he to change what was already perfect.
You know you’ve got one.
Look, I get it: Guardians of the Galaxy was space-tacular, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes was ape-tastic, and Transformers 4: Age of Extinction was more like Age of Ex-stinking-garbage. But now that you’ve satiated your blockbuster appetite, I know that you’re craving for that sweet, sweet high you get from smaller, wackier, and more brain-churning indie flicks.
As we've already addressed, some lecturers are just dicks; but there are different levels of dickery. The one who lets you watch his lectures is pretty bad, but then there's the one who refuses to make his lectures available online. We have two great solutions for you!
