Bogota, Oct 10 (EFE).- Colombian artist and one of the most prominent figures in Latin America’s contemporary art, Beatriz González hoped to continue preserving memories of Colombia’s conflicts, which many wanted to leave in oblivion, with her work "Anonymous Auras".A part of Colombia “got used to the war” and “got used to the deaths”, the artist told EFE Sunday. In 2009, González began her art project by covering 8,957 tombstones of the four Columbaria of the central cemetery of Bogotá with silhouette figures of soldiers and peasants carrying dead bodies, in an effort to convert that space in a place of mourning.

For more than 30 years, Ding Yi has drawn only a single motif: crosses. His abstract paintings contain this symbol in every form, colour and expression. His pictures hang in museums, galleries and the homes of private collectors – and one will soon be driving on the streets of Shanghai. Within the scope of the Porsche Sonderwunsch programme, an extraordinary, inspired car has been created based on the Taycan Turbo S. Both the body and the interior of the sports saloon are adorned with details from Ding Yi's painting “Appearance of Crosses 2022-2”.
