FROM THE PUBLISHERS
She glances at the photo, and the
pilot light of memory flickers in her eyes.
—Frank Deford

[email protected] • [email protected]
he technical definition of a photograph is: An image, especially a
positive print, recorded by a camera.
Sounds simple enough. Obviously the definition falls very short of what a photograph
actually is. After reviewing the hundreds
of photographs we received for this annual
photo issue, we were astounded once again at
the range of emotions and the breathtaking
vistas that can be captured by the camera.
Of course, it matters who’s operating the
camera, and we could not be more thankful to the talented photographers who contributed to this “exhibition” of Guatemalan
art. Many are represented throughout these
pages, from the true professionals to the
weekend enthusiasts. Unfortunately, we
could not fit them all in, and some will
appear in future issues.
Some of these photographs are thoughtprovoking, some are artful, some depict the
grandeur of mother nature, some are poignant and some—like the one below of our
dog—are simply amusing.
We hope you enjoy these images, and we
wish you all the best in this new year.

XI Paiz International Festival to start in February
‘For the Love of Art & Education’
www.fundacionpaiz.org.gt
2
011 may turn out to be the year for culture
in Guatemala. The 11th biennial Paiz International Festival includes an unprecedented inaugural concert with Central American superstars,
Grammy nominees performing with a beloved
student orchestra, a major retrospective of an
artistic giant and a fun, popular dance in La Antigua’s own Parque Central. The 2011 festival promises not only an exciting lineup of Guatemalan and international
artists, but also a dramatic expansion of the festival itself. Antiguenos and tourists will enjoy an
amazing season of events beginning in February
and continuing through December.
The festival opens Feb. 11 with impressive
concerts. Reuniting after a 10-year absence, the
legendary Central American groups Alux Nahual
and Éditus will kick off a colorful season filled
with art, music and dance. The next day brings the opening of a retrospective of artist Carlos Mérida at Casa Santo
Domingo in the Galería Carlos Mérida. Saturday
evening, Ermita de Santa Cruz will be rocked by
power pianist Jorge Gomez and his Grammynominated Cuban timba group, Tiempo Libre,
accompanied by La Orquesta Sinfonica Juvenil.
The artists not only perform but will also lead
workshops, discussions and classes for Guatemalan students and artists. The Fundación Paiz has
focused this festival on its essential objective: to
harness the transformative power of art and culture for a better Guatemala. —

Contrary to the cliché, genuinely nice guys
most often finish first or very near it.
—Malcolm Forbes
Advertising is, actually, a simple phenomenon
in terms of economics. It is merely a substitute
for a personal sales force—an extension, if you
will, of the merchant who cries aloud his wares.

Attitude
There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, and noticed she had
only three hairs on her head. ‘Well,’ she said, ‘I think I’ll braid my hair today.’
So she did and she had a wonderful day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head.
‘H-M-M,’ she said, ‘I think I’ll part my hair down the middle today.’
So she did and she had a grand day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head.
‘Well,’ she said, ‘today I’m going to wear my hair in a pony tail.’
So she did and she had a fun, fun day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn’t a single hair on her
head. ‘YEA!’ she exclaimed, ‘I don’t have to fix my hair today!’
... Attitude is everything.

The creative act lasts but a brief moment,
a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long
enough for you to level the camera and to
trap the fleeting prey in your little box.
—Henri Cartier-Bresson
I almost never set out to photograph a landscape,
nor do I think of my camera as a means of
recording a mountain or an animal unless I
absolutely need a ‘record shot.’ My first
thought is always of light. —Galen Rowell
