Restoring Teak Wood Bench

"Blue." A look behind the eyes.

Dear Readers:

These days the Board Piggy Bank Bancaja Foundation Caja Castellón-Bancaja, located at street Enmedio 82, presents a series of tables , all in technical support oil on wood, the young painter Patricia Castellon Bonet, the title chosen this time to identify the sample is "Blue" direct and clear reference to the sea, specifically the Mediterranean Sea, it has been for this artist its source of inspiration, as well as luxurious setting, except that as a witness, took the finest chronicles of a conciliator past, where Jews, Moors and Christians, sharing daily life and future, leaving in its good work, enriching the existing footprint Mediterranean culture, which many feel proud today, but still unable to return to the harmonious coexistence of peoples of old. And it's funny, because despite all this, Bonet want to get away from social criticism, to demand a more contemplative work, emotional and aesthetic, where the value of language in the speech of the play, is based in plastic resource from which emanates a result of great sensuousness and lyricism.

Despite this apparent secrecy priori Bonet's work, we could convey, and which moreover is closely attuned to the iconographic background from which drinks such as: Kazimir Malevich Suprematistmo or color -field painting (painting Color Field) by Mark Rothko and Barnett Newman, (images of the paragraph) framed these last in the American abstract expressionism, the compositional aspect of great schematic that Patricia Bonet and addressed in all that relies heavily on a horizontal line at different heights in terms of representation, suggesting the various visual horizon we could see the sea through an imaginary window, which places us "Voyeur" the immensity of the waters and joined it, the wide range of blues that incorporates painter, pursued in some way in its direct reference to the proposal, two ways or levels of reading in their works, on the one hand, a close, individual or anecdote that is closely related to the rapid identification of the subject (the sea ) and a broader, evocative and worship, based on the concept that it is locked, ie, emotions, the scene of quiet and reflection that could penetrate even in the philosophical and mystical aspects associated with such experiential factors, among others. That is why the work of Patricia Bonet is as close as universal, as intimate as common to all, as airtight as open in their conceptual intentions, which leads to a broad spectrum polysemic discourse.

From the formal point of view, the works have an exquisite finish, where the use of color has been executed by thin glazes (dare I say that with an airbrush), yielding a result of great delicacy and beauty, The blue color stands as the main protagonist in many of its variants and combinations. Good bill on the outcome of works, we speak of a serious and steady, worthy of those who seek to reach with their art to lofty places of recognition and prestige.

current work Patricia Bonet, very close even though his background plastics, which also included within them to their teacher, the minimalist painter Rafael Calderon Valencia, (image of the paragraph) and it So this will somehow preclude the appearance of a work that has currently has a "personality" in their own language and iconography, claiming their work however, the honorable role of the painter as ever, that despite the pressure of the fingerprint technology (Shelter for another part of both fraud and deception by some) is convinced not only of its time and duration if not also their clear ability to break through with originality and distinction in today's art world.

The exhibition will be open until next February 25 and will be open from Monday to Friday from 11.00 to 13.00 and from 17.30 to 21.00. It goes without say that very heartily recommend it to everyone, because without a doubt in this exhibition, the beauty queen within its walls.

Dear readers

Since the first time in 1917 Marcel Duchamp placed a urinal in an exhibition titled "Fontaine" as an illustrator of what he considered his aesthetic perception of non-art, and not precisely as a sensitive and promoter of new art, museums, galleries and state linked to the current post encompassed in the forefront informal and / or conceptual wrongly classified as contemporary art spaces (as if it were only such contemporary art or language) no longer filled with "works" unintelligible, of dubious aesthetic value of useless and dirty everyday objects, where "new" has ceased to be (and long) and where it is becoming increasingly necessary to have large storage space to store many "tarecos" useless and dull, they do not do anything but "fat" with powder containing, causing the same indifference, isolation and even rejection, that of the famous and notorious white urinal that French artist, one that almost always, the "new" attempts to continue to claim their piece of "originality", remind me more and more to the original and therefore still appear all over me boring if possible.

This was precisely the feeling I experienced in part to visit the exhibition "Paillet, protheses, Poubelle" (Sequins, appliances, trash) Anita Miller, Nina Childress and Emmanuelle Villard who is currently on display at the Center Exhibitions San Miguel de la Fundación Caixa Castelló-Bancaixa Enmedio street, 17, and that it could not be otherwise (since this type of art tends to need it) comes with up to a commissioner, Mr. Ramón Tio Bellido for explaining it, which we are "illustrated" in your presentation on-line, http://obrasocial.bancaja .com / culture / exhibitions / exposicionesficha.aspx? ID = 352 in a language that only he and maybe a few more, we can be of great interest, not so attractive and profound concepts that drive, but perhaps so bland, simple and ambiguous that it is what he says, because in his text not only describes what we all see, but also tries to impose what one perceives. When I'm in the presence cases like these, always comes to mind David Hockney's words when he says "It is not necessary to believe in what you say an artist, but what he does," I think when we need to explain to others what one ago, I can think of two reasons that cause it - surely there are more, but only tell you two - first, because the creation of the work only in the interest and satisfaction that made, which a priori would be nice if we consider that it is good to respect individual freedom of the artist, so he can do and say whatever he deems necessary, but in defense of that individual freedom can not break the link with those they are called to enjoy and appreciate what we do, that is, public art, which also included many specialists in the field, as critics and artists, because if we do not have in mind and / or deny, For what it the individual that freedom really worth? whereupon What would be an exhibition like this that nobody understands and few admire? Some think that this secrecy in the course of the works, is also present in other movements or types of arts, such as abstraction, however, lies the subtle difference between these two approaches or ways to create, is that abstract art, its results will be organized from plastic resources inherent to the painting, which is not quite tight at least for those who understand that language, concepts and know how to handle use the resources that are unique in their form of expression.

And the second reason, perhaps more generic and reflective than before, but in close connection with this, is that for art to be a factor resulting stimulus to meditation and the sensitivity of people (experts or not) it is necessary that these are recognized in him, because if something goes wrong or is wrong and in this exhibition, more tire and auto parts to be displayed or blue dumpsters hanging ceiling, do not believe this action will inspire even the sensitive and empathetic understanding of auto mechanics, or distinguished urban sanitation workers.

The truth is that despite everything and as a curiosity, we see a huge waste in the use of supports used in this exhibition such as car tires and agricultural machinery hanging from the ceiling of the room , plastic containers for garbage, half melted as a result of the action of heat of a torch, steel wire boxes, colored plastics, automobile taillights which melted and assembled mosaic and many more gadgets I do think in a large housekeeping operation of a machine shop than in a showroom display pieces of art.

And that is the great paradox of all this lies in that many of the representatives or to represent this type of art, insisting repeatedly denying the value of modern or contemporary than the traditional trades may have classic or academic misnamed. For many of these defenders of the mega ultra modern and contemporary art, a brush, some paint and a piece of canvas, it is somewhat obsolete, old "fashion" and almost meaningless today, but however, this exhibition of both "Contemporary Art", is precisely the support that has been used in the work, which seems to be the causal factor that leads to the "original" or "only" the result, that yet another time (archaic for some) of another type of art would have no greater interest than that which supports the durability of the technical. It is curious to see how this exaltation of the calls in the result, is linked to this (the media) that has always been more linked to technical means and material comprising the office, that the purpose of the proposed conceptual discourse.

the end to this modern conception of the "contemporary" we have gone from an art, where the communication of the speeches in greater or lesser degree was understood, or at least shared by all, to a world of " tarecos" useless, dumb and outdated we expect that as the dust that covers them, lost in oblivion, with the slightest breeze fair and righteous over time.

Inconclusive Clamidia Result

"Confluence" An exhibition with pleasure.

Dear Readers:

"Confluence" is the title that the young artist has chosen Altea Castellon Grau, and will be open to the public until next day January 29 at the Municipal Cultural Center of the Calle Antonio Maura, 4. A beautiful exhibition which "joins" the conceptual intent of speeches, with the power and beauty of the images.

Refugee and informal, as the formal aspect of the work is concerned, the artist tackles a wide range of techniques and procedures, most of the engraving, but also in the exhibition are examples too simple but nice two facilities. Being just the formal aspect, which allows a clear harmony or "confluence" as author of the sample, despite the various concepts in the discourse of the works. This aspect, (the formal) is involved in a nostalgic, reminds me so much the art of the 50 United States of America that abstract expressionism of Pollock and above all, Cy Twombly ( second image of the paragraph) or even the one disturbing "Spaziale" by Lucio Fontana, who in turn baby's dynamic and almost frantic Rayonism Russian Mikhail Larionov, emerged a few years earlier, around 1910.

But whatever the influences, on the other hand, no one is exempt from having them, the exposure of the young artist Altea Grau, these samples is well worth see, because it is certainly a pleasure for our eyes, as the rigor and good bill on the results of their work, talk about a serious and steady, suitable only for those who seek their art to reach top rankings sites , recognition and prestige, on her own merits and in an honest way.

Congratulations to the artist and the Municipal Cultural Center of the Calle Antonio Maura 4, it exhibits how are you, we forget those recent, which would have been better not to have seen.

State and regional collective agreement

s Hi everyone,

Today I would like to speak of collective agreements, whether state or regional level and differentiating the functional level, ie within your profession depending on what type of establishment you work.

really surprises me that people are so poorly informed on these issues, many people are lost in such letter or decrees and eventually lose interest, too bad because after all is what feeds us, and without knowing your rights, do not know what to demand. Remember that this is precisely what interests them the entrepreneurs play the confusion to get the most benefit of employees. The worst thing is when we offered a job as convention and stayed only with the wages we receive, and a collective agreement is much more. But let's start from the beginning to the most lost ...

What is a collective agreement?

A Collective Agreement is the agreement between the representatives of workers and employers to set working conditions and productivity in the workplace determined. To be valid, collective agreements must be in writing and be filed with the labor authorities to apply from the time when the parties so agree.

is, in our country, our convention charged with improving the trade unions CCOO and UGT . This is clear why physios colleges wash their hands with this issue, and should be the employee (affiliated guess) who put pressure on unions to improve the agreement.

The regions that have no collective agreement itself (autonomic) are governed by the collective agreement state, which may be revised independently by each territorial delegation of trade unions in each community.

Here you state the collective agreements in force:

- For institutions:

XII GENERAL COLLECTIVE AGREEMENT CARE CENTERS AND SERVICES TO PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES (16 MAY 2006).

And here wage revisions made by some communities:

Balearic Islands 2007

Aragon 2009 - 2010: Rise of 4% each year

Castilla-La Mancha 2010

And here the State Convention for Nursing Homes:

V collective agreement under state care for dependents and development of personal empowerment (2008-2011)

and salary review for 2010

Soon be published the 2011 review

I would stress that when we are offered a contract by agreement, it marks a set annual hours and to work more hours than stipulated in the agreement shall be deemed as overtime, obviously better paid or entitled to accumulate those hours as a rest. For example, in the first convention centers, requires annual 1729h or 38h 30 'weekly. The plus for night is EUR 275.67.

addition, if we work at another location and split shift, we are entitled to financial compensation. And of course we are entitled to a bonus for seniority.

In 2006, the base salary stipulated in EUR 1102.68 but must apply each year for inflation adjustments, which should sue the unions. Hence, the CCAA has 2006 base salary.

AUTONOMOUS COLLECTIVE

- Catalunya : agreement health facilities (2007-2010) and residences of the 3rd age at which their activity is primarily health and except all public schools to pay review in 2009

Regarding the state convention highlights these differences:

- the base salary, 1555.9

euros in 2009 - annual 1734h

- + 42.46 euros if we split shift + EUR 45.21

diets

- + 354.02 euros if you work at night, from 22h to 6h.

This agreement ended in 2010, 2011, revised or renewed.

- Madrid: collective agreement for health facilities (2010)

Vitae Thanks to our partner for the information.

This agreement seems to me really bad, as it were equivalent, the basic wage prescribed in the collective agreement state in 2006, or about 1100 euros in base salary. No wonder that in this way appear trash in many tenders physiotherapy forums, usually offers that are of Madrid.

"Possible causes? "Superopoblación of physios in Madrid? "Employers more aggressive? "Regional Delegation unions more passive? I have no answer, what is certain is that it should give a hint to unions to renew the agreement in full and equate it to what is living in a city like Madrid.

- Valencia : V Convention Center Labor Collective Autonomy and Care Services for People with Disabilities in the Valencian Community. (2008)

1720.12 stand out above the base salary euros.

- Galicia: Private residences of the 3rd Age (2006-2008)

Thanks to fellow elkin:

provincial hospitals Convention
Pontevedra private health Lugo Convention
Coruña Convention
private health private health Convention
Ourense Ourense Review
wage the 3rd Age Convention Homes

salary below the state collective residences.

- Cantabria: Collective Agreement for the Establishment of Private Health Sector Hospitalisation Cantabria. (2009)

EUR 1363.83 base salary

- Navarra collective labor agreement for concerted public sector care centers for the disabled, of Navarre (2005).

with salary review in 2008

- La Rioja: Convention working group for the activity of Senior Private Residences of the Autonomous Community of La Rioja for the years 2008, 2009 and 2010.

- Murcia: Collective Agreement for hospital and health facilities assistance from the Region of Murcia 2006-2008.

undoubtedly the worst of collective agreements in Spain in terms of health concerns, which provides the base salary of 858.44 euros physiotherapist.

- Andalucía: in this CCA, each province has a different agreement for health care, here is the link salariaaes tables and annual hours / week, and the term of the agreement. To better visualize must be registered with the College of physios in Andalusia, or you can download the table in your pc. Thanks to our colleague Bansky for the information.

linker

I tried all the conventions of most clearly, especially conventions centers, residences of the 3rd age and private hospitals. The Autonomous Communities that do not appear, either have no regional agreement and use the state or just not have found.

I set out to create this blog to bring together all possible information on physiotherapy in labor issues, and spark critical thinking in our country physios. I hope that little by little, we all think that beyond what we offer is hidden right, just before signing a contract you have to read the agreement that affects you. From there, if something is not right, should be requested. It is therefore vital that when you go to an interview work, not sign until you have read the agreement, or if you know her beforehand not accept under what conditions for the good of the profession.

I hope you have been helpful, cheers!
