In some newspapers in Central America and the world-cultural journalism is seen as a well decorated vase or hinders.
cultural journalist, on his part and in many cases, is considered the day idle, the drinks being with painters who writes a newsletter on a guitar recital and one on the birthday of Saramago. Is seen as the responsibility to remind birthdays of famous people ... In its excesses, is the cat that sits on the couch and bristles with an opera. Moreover, many journalism students choose to do their internships in cultural sections because they think there will win easily.
fact, are the same cultural journalists, many times, who have set the pace of all this, since the ancient times when they were recording his notes on stone plates. The reason is that it always has a vocation. The journalist, often, not to become hunting dogs news crushed and prefer to make real and sovereign enter the world of arts journalists lazy and glamorous.
I can not imagine a journalist in those sections that do not like attending an art gallery, a rock concert or a market. And is that the cultural journalism is more than watch ballet. Is a strong science and passion that carries a monstrous need to eat as seen, heard and swallowed it greedily written return and be a pop concert or acoustic guitar. These and other details reminded us of one of the best journalists in the world's cultural, Hispanic, his name is Jesus Ruiz Mantilla, writer and journalist with El País Semanal, who attended with us, some journalists cultural Central American and Caribbean- Last week a workshop on the subject, in Costa Rica.
Interestingly, in our countries culture is still seen as a segment made by-and-the elite. Some dinosaurs still consider that hip hop and mariachis are not cultural issues. Fortunately, it is increasingly absurd. Entertainment and culture are merging in a while, like it or not.
many years ago when there was no Internet, it was decided that the difference between fine arts and music in the style of what today would be Los Tigres del Norte, for example. That has changed. But watch out, not a matter only of mixed information on a page to be fashionable. It is not just a matter of putting a dog gossip singer more valuable information that was operated slut tits and an essay on a book or Theodor Mommsen Böll.
Al periodimo cultural need, many times, common sense.
Today, cultural journalist should take seriously as a chronicle reggaeton as a heavy metal concert or opera.
Central America is almost always the last to set changes. First look how they're doing in other places before taking the plunge. Whether from fear or caution, it remains the reason why some are masters and other supporters.
These days, cultural journalism is of aesthetic and anthropological extensive discussions. A theorist of great importance, Lázaro Israel Rodríguez-Cuban living in Cuba, was present and opened fire the discussion about the power companies already have on media companies. The blogs, citizen journalism and other sources of information takes great strength, fortunately.
Rosa Jiménez Cano's English journalist periodismociudadano.com integral Madrid since its foundation (must be added that is a pioneer in the field, at least in the English-speaking citizen journalism) said its way to coordinate and implement the period from country. Incidentally, I believe that both the Cuban and Madrid, are poles apart on the assessment of power and hegemony over citizen journalism, which is healthy (who wants to deepen on their views, you can easily track them on the Web).
Yet another thoroughly familiar with the subject and the sociological aspect is the clog Rafael Cuevas, who was present and reminded us that there is falsehood in covering culture from traditional views and hegemonic. Painter and writer, the Guatemalan is trained in Romania and living in Costa Risa for some 30 years.
important thing about cultural journalism, in any case, be aware that those who exercise do it with the same passion that puts a carpenter to show the best angles of the best furniture. And any reader will know when you forward to a newspaper with vocation or who got into the cultural periodimo just because they served in economics or politics, and wanted to go for a walk in the theaters. Cultural journalist has a strange vocation for digging in front, side and behind the scenes.
Greetings.
