Sorry Suzan, I forgot to update it. Last week Dolo, Kambrosis and I decided to delay the end of the contributions until 15th of March, just because a lot of people didn't joined it yet. The goal is have so many pictures as possible from the assistants. Apologices for my mistake...

Oh, ok, than I (and probably others too) could have looked to make a better pic.
In February it was so cold here...But any way good you did, because so little people joined so far.

Hi all!! Everyone of you that joined the Madrid meeting last month already knows the winners of this contest, but there was still missing the forum entry and also the translation of the jury verdict that I traslated so perfectly on-the-fly (................... )
Here you have it! (and also the original spanish verdict, just in case someone can find any mistake)

THIRD PLACE


LAURA LIZANCOS

A sober space defined by the carachters and their attitude. The compositions breaks the rectangular structure to flow by the posture and the looks of the carachters. We can read here two scenes, related and differenced between them at the same time. From right to left there is a positions and lookings succesion: from back and in front, profile and looking down, front view and looking up. All three women are searching for something... The kid breaks the colors monotony with her pink cardigan and also adds the gesture missing: she's directly looking at the camera. The sketchy bookcase at the end is the captivating and enigmatic component of the picture.

SECOND PLACE


A.MIGUEL OLIVEIRA

The space is the frame for the scene. We perfectly guess the arquitechture in the places out of focus. The local ambiance is clearly defined, and also the activity of each customer. The decorative element in the foreground explains the place classicism, broken by the not-centered character that seems coming from the Stieg Larsson book. The eyes goes with the decorative elements and the crystal glass with the drops seems from a still-life painting.

WINNER


GAMONERO

A painting composition, with two spaces widely spaced by the line in the wall. Clear greys in the upper side and dark in the lower side. A central reference subject that attracts the looking and leads to the upper subject (flowers in the bottle continued by the flowers in the painting joining two spaces). The chairs represents the people, the conversation, the meeting. Is a sober and elegant image, with the b/W addition that suggests the time passing by the meeting places.


Original spanish verdict:

3. LAURA LIZANCOS
Un espacio sobrio definido por los personajes y su actitud. La composición rompe la estructura rectangular para hacerse circular siguiendo las posturas y las miradas. La lectura puede hacerse en esta caso en dos escenas relacionadas y al mismo tiempo diferenciadas. De derecha a izquierda las tres posiciones y miradas se suceden: espalda y de frente, perfil y hacia abajo, frontal y hacia arriba. Las tres mujeres buscan algo... La niña rompe la monotonía de los colores con la rebeca rosa y al mismo tiempo añade el gesto que faltaba: la mirada hacia el objetivo de la cámara. Como elemento cautivador y enigmático la librería desdibujada en el fondo.

2. A.MIGUEL OLIVEIRA
El espacio es el marco para la escena. La arquitectura se adivina perfectamente en los desenfoques. Se define claramente el ambiente local y la actividad de cada cliente. El elemento decorativo del primer plano explica el clasicismo del local, roto por el personaje (descentrado) que parece sacado del libro de Stieg Larsson. Los ojos hacen juego con los elementos decorativos, y el vaso de cristal con las gotas de agua parece pintado para un bodegón.

1. GAMONERO
Composición pictoralista con dos espacios en la imagen separados por la línea partida en el muro. Grises claros en la parte superior y oscuros en la inferior. Un elemento central de referencia que atrae la mirada y que lleva al elemento superior (flores de la botella continuadas en las flores del cuadro: unión de dos espacios). Las sillas representan las personas, la conversación, el encuentro. Es una imagen sobria y elegante, con el añadido del blanco y negro que sugiere el tiempo pasado en el lugar de encuentros.

Verdict by J. M. Sánchez Vigil and Manuel Durán Blázquez
