Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Neuroscientist. Former Fellow
of von Humboldt Foundation, DAAD, British Royal Society, Ford
Foundation, Foundation´s Fund for Research in Psychiatry, former
Full Professor (tenured) at College of Medicine (USF, FL USA).
Fiction writer. Several local and regional art exhibits and awards. A
work of art is thus the end result of a specific process – possessing
a specific form and aesthetic, it serves no purpose except that
of channeling a very specific form of energy. It is always a sort
of communicative performance. It allows man to plumb his own
conscience and to void it. In fact, it is only within empty spaces
that energy is able to unleash its own creative force.
Consequently, by asking how to develop this energy in the face of
the complexity of the world, questioning the need for free mental
space, man is experiencing a journey where reality and the virtual
go hand in hand: two dimensions which are no longer disjoined,
in that the virtual is nothing other than an “as-if” reality. Now, the
contents aspect of any work of art lie in the presupposition that
the artist is in fact able to explain the most concealed of man’s
movements and desires. Once this clarity has been acquired,
the artist can purposefully use the talent he has been given. His
raw material will always be the conscious awareness of his own
energy, his mental resources. (Excerpt)
