The opposition of artist Pedro Villalba Ospina has over 120 etchings inspired by the book One Hundred Years of Solitude. The exhibit will take place in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. To Villalba Ospina, writing is not only about words, "they are more than simple fantasies and evocations." To demonstrate this, the Colombian artist has spent over six years of his life interpreting, with images, the novel One Hundred Years of Solitude.

"The article criticizes Colombian novelist Gabriel García Márquez for supporting Cuba in the custody and immigration battle between the U.S. and the Cuban government over Cuban refugee Elián González. It describes the relationship between García Márquez and Cuban leader Fidel Castro and offers information about how García Márquez depicted the issue in the op-ed page of 'The New York Times.’ It argues against García Márquez's claim that the boy should be saved from growing up in the U.S."

A jury integrated by Eduardo Mendoza, Félix de Azúa, Guillermo Cabrera Infante, Luis Goytisolo, Jorge Volpi, and Fernando Savater among other authors and experts, gave out the Second Bartolomé March Prize to the best book of literary criticism of the year, La verdad de las mentiras, by Mario Vargas Llosa. ||Another book by Vargas Llosa that is very important in literary criticism is Gabriel García Márquez: Historia de un deicidio (1971). When asked if he would allow for a reedition of this book, Vargas Llosa responded "Maybe in the future. Why not? The problem is that I need to revise and rewrite almost the whole thing, just like I did with La verdad de las mentiras. Since I wrote it, García Márquez has published other important works."

Brief mention of García Márquez. Mendoza states: "Cuando leemos a Borges, a García Márquez o a Rulfo, inmediatamente cambiamos nuestra manera de ver, de pensar y de ser. Eso nos sucede también con Picasso o con Fernando Botero. Sus ojos nos muestran un mundo que no habíamos visto antes, nos abren nuevas posibilidades."

Notes:
There are 24,650 Colombians without a permit for residence living in Spain; without papers, the number triplicates. The eminent demand to have a visa to enter Spain makes the wound deeper. Seven world renown Colombian authors are at the front of acting against the law that requires every Colombian to have a visa to enter Spain. García Márquez says that asking for a visa when entering Spain would be like asking for a visa to enter their own mother's house.

Viewed on 24 January, 2008.||Only in the last decades of the past century have Europe and the United States begun to notice Latin American literature, by reading it through the works of Borges and García Márquez. In literature only with García Márquez, the US and Europe noticed that in Latin America there was something to read, even to imitate. Almost all of the tales in "Veinticinco cuentos Barranquilleros" unites the city of Barranquilla and its surroundings. They are not stories of authors from Barranquilla, but stories of authors who reside there, or at one point resided there. However García Márquez is not included among them. Maybe it is because he never wrote a story with Barranquilla as the background.
