The art of recycling

After the war, Leo Castelli opened an art gallery and discovered many artists as Jackson Pollock, Robert Rauchenberg, Roy Lichtenstein and Andry Warhol. Castelli died in 1999 but Rolando Politi was an Italian artist that still lived  in New York. He was a ''trash artist'' because he took trash from the street and trasformed the trash in art.
He and his friends cleared out the trash and we tried to salvage it and use for something else. In a interview he said that he didn't need a work because his life and his art were one and the same. After a long period people were very interested to recycling.They understood that if we want to save our planet we have to re-use these things.With this same concept In Argentine some people have made houses from newspapers, plastic battles and rubber tyres.

Giraffe Hero

Dora Andrade
Giraffe heroes are people who raised their voice for very important causes in the world. My favorite hero is Dora Andrade a teacher that teaches to poor kids how to dance in Brazil. Some brazilians thought that only rich children could attend ballet lessons,they didn't agree that in the barrio there were children that danced. They thought that the children would break or dirty things. Today these children are very famous because they bring attention to poor children and allow them to have meals,vaccination,medical controls and computer lessons. Andrade doesn't teach only how to dance but also encourage children to read and to aspire to higher education. The children that danced in Andrade's school, performed before thousands of people. Some rich families faked poverty and tried to enroll their children in Andrade's school. Since Andrade has become very famous she has opened new schools in other towns in Brazil.

Selfie

Selfie is a photo taken by yourself, with self-shot without the help of a second person. When you take a sefie often they are published on social networks or sent on whatsapp. A research says that who takes a lot of selfie doesn't have much self confidence. There are many types of selfies, but the most famous is the duck face that is a selfie with the face of a duck and the kissy face that is with the lips to kiss. There are also stars that to attract attention put on social networks their selfie. I like to make selfie especially those with my friends and family. Chinese invented ''selfie stick'' that is another way to take selfie.
