One is never satisfied with a portrait of persons whom one knows. That is why I have always pitied portraitists. One demands so seldom of others the impossible, but demands just that of the portraitists.

Gabriela Pavón de Naumann:


Rosaana Velasco:




A year ago, tease was founded to establish a platform for the presentation of young contemporary art in Rhineland.

Tease thereby went beyond the functional boundaries of individual art institutions and brought the most important aspects of Kunstvereine (art societies), galleries, project rooms and studio groups together in a new trend-setting form.

Name-dropping is not the primary aim of the curatorial selection - even if some of the artists here have already participated in renowned exhibitions - rather it is the presentation of a wide spectrum of individual artistic positions.

And so a forum is opened for meetings and communication between the general art public, likewise for collectors, curators and gallerists.

Photography can help the memory


We were 13-14 years old. And who would say, thanks to Valerie Perez LeRay, who was only one year with us at school, I can take a visual look of my past.
She is not on the photo but some of my then best friends are: Rocio, Olga Orellana, Adriana Delgado, Lorena Villavicencio, Cristina Latapi, Pilar Zertuche, Gabriela Madrigal and Claudia (Cayito). I am the one with the face half covered with hair.
Thanks Valerie!

Top row: Margarita Cabello, Rocío Chico, Ana Elena Hubard, Lorena Villavicencio and Olga Orellana.
Front row: Estela Mercado, Valerie, Adriana Trejo Veytia, Alejandra Morineau, Marisol and me.
