The visual artist Germain Venegas gave the Woodcarving workshop sculptors from San Luis Potosi. For a week the prestigious Mexican creator shared his knowledge to students in the area of ​​Visual Arts Arts Center San Luis Potosi Centennial.

During a brief break from Wood carving workshop, the teacher Venegas gave an interview to provide details of the activity that took place from 9 to 14 March 2009.

On the workshop, Venegas, said: "I tried to work at a pace with the group, and dynamics. All responded very well. Whenever a basic course like this I'm giving and have little time to develop, there are many complications. Besides that, the matter was very hard but nevertheless, the students responded well and I think by now after 4 days of work all have found confidence with the materials and tools.

"This elsewhere when not well known tools the process is very slow, but got here a rigorous dynamic work. Where the important thing is how they will take the tools and how they will work on wood, all responded very well, everyone has learned a lot, "said the visual creator.

Faced with the possibility to continue working with artists from San Luis Potosí, Venegas Germain, said: "I would love to follow up, the problem is that I'm not full-time teacher. I dedicate myself to produce my work, in that sense to me is very difficult to provide continuity. The previous workshop I gave Wood Carving five years here, this is the second time and on the other hand I like to different workshops. It bores me to take a single workshop because I workshops once or twice a year, sometimes paint, sometimes drawing, sculpture, sculpture was good now. "

Speaking about the academic offerings of the Arts Center of San Luis Potosi Centennial Germain Venegas he said, "Well are beginning, and seeing how to solve the organizational side, the academic and think it will take a while, but it is important to seek advice with people who have experience in that. Generally art schools is not an easy task in academics, is complicated but if looking for people who already done so with many years of experience can be structured very well that part.

Venegas said that all he is interested in the next year is pintar.Finalmente, Venegas said Fernando Betancourt has been a very kind since invited him to work here. "He's very concerned about the culture in St. Louis and I think it looks at the level of people who are coming to work, I would add that the Arts Center of San Luis Potosi Centenary with all their features, spaces, and even the change was the use that was given to me is building something great. Ideal. It's like you always looking to do good things in the world, and we know this at some point was a dark, black, suddenly abandoned but some people think they can achieve good things from this, of a dark past. I think this is a great example that can be taken for the whole country. I think this is a totally enviable place to start is beautiful. Very beautiful, the spaces are great, the atmosphere is beginning to create is ideal.

"On the other hand I want to thank all my students were very enthusiastic to have worked with great energy, with much force, have not bowed at any time, because it is a very tough job, and absolutely everyone has worked hard and that's what I can say, "the experienced developer.
