CCBB is a cultural center in Rio. I'm designing its new library (that's why I spent the day today wandering around the building, and saw this exhibition, and took these pics). It's an amazing building, and I hope the new library (the entire 5th floor) will be an attraction for visitors, too.

Parabéns pelas fotos Eduardo! belos exemplos de foco seletivo.O prédio parece imponente também.

All the different angles and perspectives definitely make for some good surrealism.

¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡Todas esas Iemanjás ... en un trencito (?) de madera, rodeadas de sombrillas, bajo una cúpula...!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ecléctico, extraño, original, luminoso, gracioso, irónico, fuerte y personal, todo junto. Bien Brasil. No puedo dejar de pensar en una pequeña Iemanjá na Pampulha, fue una de las primeras que vi. Y ahora, estas, ordenadas y sumisas, me la traen... con todas las aguas, las playas, los 31 de diciembres, las Vírgenes María.
¡¡¡¡¡Espero ver esa biblioteca!!!!!!¿¿¿Qué más le podés pedir a Iemanjá...???

Fantastic design......obligado !

Obrigado, OSCAR. O pior é que tentei ter todas as imagens em foco, e... não consegui! O foco seletivo (não sabia que era esse o nome técnico da coisa) acabou não sendo bem uma escolha. Sabe onde é que eu ajusto isso?

LINDA: I found this repetition absolutelly surreal, all these goddesses in a queue, going to nowhere, so far from the ocean that is their home...

LILIANA: Você ia gostar muito dessa exposição. Chama-se "Brasil Brasileiro", e retrata um pouco da terra, da gente, da alma do Brasil. Está cheia de araras, igrejas barrocas, bananas e... iemanjás. O projeto da biblioteca começou hoje. Vamos ver como fica. Pode deixar que te mantenho informada. (Pensando bem, eu deveria ter pedido inspiração às 208 Iemanjás!).

Surreal messssssssssssmo. Que coisa linda! Com foco... sem foco... não importa. O efeito está sensacional. Como bem disse a Liliana, uma exposição bem Brasil mesmo. E com tantos outros atrativos expostos, imagino que você irá nos alegrar com mais tabblos. Que prédio lindo. Tenho certeza que a bibioteca ficará também linda.O CCBB daqui de Brasília é todo no concreto. Funcional, mas sem nenhum charme.

Peraí! Cadê o volume 1?
Andre. said at 10:26 p.m. on Mar 17, 2009:
Somehow I like #14...
Eduardo.affonso said at 10:38 p.m. on Mar 17, 2009:
ELIANE: Lamento informar que o restante da exposição não pode ser fotografado. Pensando bem, nem sei como me deixaram fotografar esta instalação. Deve ter sido porque não pedi licença, cheguei e fui agachando, clicando e picando a mula. Não conheço os CCBBs de Brasília nem de SP, mas duvido que sejam tão bonitos quanto o daqui.

Este é o Image Nation Volume 1: http://www.tabblo.com/studio/stories/view/1656129/


ANDRE: #14? I added it just because I needed another vertical image... My favorite is #2 (but of course it`s not important at all).
Andre. said at 11:03 p.m. on Mar 17, 2009:
Well, I like vertical images then:))))

very nice tabblo.

Made me think of the Chinese terracotta soldiers. The center looks to be a beautiful building.
Mirella said at 5:58 a.m. on Mar 18, 2009:
Surrealistic, indeed. I like the n.2, too. Ciao
EMA said at 6:48 a.m. on Mar 18, 2009:
Muito original este cortejo de Iemanjás. Este conjunto de fotos do mesmo tema em diferentes ângulos também acabou por fazer um efeito muito interessante. Parabéns pelo tabblo e pelo trabalho.! :)

tok about Duplicity! this is great, as Linda said, the way you put this together makes it feel even more fantastic
Moabjeeper said at 12:45 p.m. on Mar 18, 2009:
Great shot of the interio dome.
Moorlerche said at 2:57 p.m. on Mar 18, 2009:
Besides the cupola I favour #6. One sharp face between varying degrees of unsharpness. One angel standing out of the masses. But most brilliant is the tabblo as a whole. Each change of angle leads to a change in priorities on the photo. Each photo bears a different meaning thought the motive is the same. Great.

Adorei Edu. Também não sei como te deixaram fotografar...mas fcou lindo, lindo. Amanhã vou o centro da cidade na hora do almoço e acho que vou passar por lá pra dar uma olhadinha de perto.

I always love your statue photos and these are no exception. As The Artist Formerly Known As Prince sang, "There's Joy in Repetition."
Ira said at 11:31 p.m. on Mar 18, 2009:
Perfect combination of distinct and indistinct effects.
Debdog said at 11:22 a.m. on Mar 19, 2009:

Hi Eduardo: what brilliant shots. I was showing and reading it to Christopher and he told me to tell you that he also went to the library yesterday (it looked differrent, though, says mommy) and he got his first library card and took 6 six books. H ealso showed me a car that he got from Eduardo and an air plane that took him to Brazil.
Anyway, your pictures are brilliant. Where are all these goddesses marching to....... Judit and Christopher
Welshchick said at 3:03 p.m. on Mar 19, 2009:
Well Edu...I believe that the godess is smiling at this tabblo~

Gorgeous shots Eduardo!
Leftofcenter said at 6:14 p.m. on Mar 22, 2009:
the beach umbrellas clash with the majesty of the dome! I love the repetition of Iemanja, the blur (hey that's MY thing!) and the angle from the back and she does look a bit like me doesn't she? ;)))
very original tab.
