Curiosity: The picture of the men riding a horse on the exhibition of Ney Matogrosso is not about him, it is about Dictatorship. At Insta: @solardosabacaxis In the picture of the credit near the photographs reads: "Yeguas del Apocalipsis Coletivo formado por Pancha Casas e Pedro Lemebel, em atividade entre 1987 e 1993 em Santiago, Chile Refundación de la Universidad de Chile, 1988 Impressão digital sobre papel fotográfico" It has a typo. It is not Pancha. It is Pancho, our nickname for Francisco. According to the Las Yeguas del Apocalipsis website: "Description: While the dictatorship was still in power and amidst a student occupation of the University of Chile’s Faculty of Arts, the "Yeguas del Apocalipsis" (Mares of the Apocalypse) entered the Juan Gómez Millas campus via Las Encinas Street; naked and mounted on a mare, they were accompanied by poets Carmen Berenguer, Carolina Jerez, and Nadia Prado. Lemebel and Casas parodied and eroticized the virile iconography of the soldier-conquistador while referencing male homosexuality. According to Francisco Casas, the performance alluded to both Pedro de Valdivia—the founder of Santiago—and the legend of Lady Godiva; it was conceived as a demand for the inclusion of minorities within the university, giving rise to the intervention's title: "Refundación de la Universidad de Chile" (Refounding of the University of Chile). https://www.yeguasdelapocalipsis.cl/1988-refundacion-de-la-universidad-de-chile/ Also, I wrote about Lemebel on my blog in Spanish if you want to check: https://enespanol.pablolarah.cl/la-ausencia-de-pedro-lemebel

Atlas (em grego: Άτλας), também chamado Atlante, na mitologia grega, é um dos titãs condenado por Zeus a sustentar os céus para sempre. Era um rei da Mauritânia, correspondendo ao conhecido defensor da Terra que entrou na cultura popular; Este Atlas é um Titã de segunda geração e não deve ser confundido com o filho de Poseidon e Cleito mencionado nos diálogos de Platão, Timeu e Crítias. O "Oceano Atlântico" é derivado de "Mar de Atlas". O nome de Atlântida mencionado no diálogo Timeu de Platão deriva de "Atlantis nesos" (grego antigo: Ἀτλαντὶς νῆσος), que significa literalmente "Ilha de Atlas".

In Greek mythology, Atlas (/ˈætləs/; Ancient Greek: Ἄτλας, romanized: Átlas) is a Titan condemned to hold up the heavens or sky for eternity after the Titanomachy. Atlas also plays a role in the myths of two of the greatest Greek heroes: Heracles (Hercules in Roman mythology) and Perseus. According to the ancient Greek poet Hesiod, Atlas stood at the ends of the earth in the extreme west. Later, he became commonly identified with the Atlas Mountains in northwest Africa.[2] Atlas was said to have been skilled in philosophy, mathematics, and astronomy. In antiquity, he was credited with inventing the first celestial sphere. In some texts, he is even credited with the invention of astronomy itself.
