Tuesday of video / Dolor de corazón

exas Sunrise (2002) presents a montage of images of shifting rhythms vertebrated by the passionate words of an invisible man, a left-wing deist anarchist: Johnson Frisco. A ghost of roads and freight trains, inspired by the devout indigenous attitude towards the land and its respectful management of natural resources, Frisco denounces greed, property, money, and the fearful conformism of an American people who possess nothing more than the illusion of freedom. Its author is Lluís Escartín.

The video will be accompanied by the intervention of Pol Guasch, who will read some poems from it. In Pol’s writing, we can sense a nostalgia for stories of utopia, love, criticism linked to hope and the stimulation of an agency that considers a meanwhile and an after that are also present in Texas Sunrise.
