Subject: Apoyo a su obra
Quito,

Estimada
Alma:
Le escribo desde Ecuador. Me entere de su obra "Our Lady" por el
escandalo armado por el grupo reaccionario de extrema derecha TFP. A traves
de los buscadores encontre su pagina web y he leido algunos de los comentarios.
En mi opinion, mientras algunos "pseudocatolicos" sigan apoyando
a dictadores y demas criminales, que en nombre de Dios han hecho barbaridades,
no tienen ningun derecho ni ninguna autoridad moral para juzgar a una artista.
Estoy interesado en comprar una postal de "Our Lady", ??Puedo mandar
el dinero, dos dolares, por correo certificado?
Tambien me gustaria mucho intercambiar opiniones con usted.
Atentamente,
Luis Eguiguren.

I am having trouble understanding the point
of this painting anyway.
The Virgin appeared with a message that was powerful and meaningful to the
Indians of the time. It transformed their way of worship. For better or worse
at least there were no more human sacrifices. Why is it so important these
days to sexualize everything? What is the point. The media and now the fine
arts have turned this country into a trivial community of oversexed mental
retards that can't distinguish between salvation and invasion in other countries.
In the name of freedom we drop bombs killing thousands of innocents.
In the name of group identity, we take a sexualized cholita and substitute
her or for the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe. Hey, what's wrong with nuestra
madre India. Isn't she good enough. And we don't need anymore over sexualized
cholitas having babies and doing drugs instead of getting an education. Get
real!
