Traveling Through the Cities of Carlos Santa
Art has the possibility of revealing man their own behaviors and ways of seeing the world. For this reason it is possible to see in art works of the past, a historical documentation that revel ways the man used to see the world around him. In many cases this revelation is annoying, incomprehensible or despised for the incapacity of analyzing ourselves. The work of Carlos Santa appears as an invitation to make the analysis on the specific state of contemporary man. The man submerged in the city, technology, the eagerness on gaining time and the insatiable necessity on making money. Although his work can be analyzing the problematic of his country (Colombia) the whole theme is competent to man all around the world. The specific problems of Colombia, narcodeal, guerrilla, paramilitary, etc. are not represented in his work, but are the result of the global problems that Santa has decided to point out.
