Our country’s south has become, in the last few years, one of the tourism’s hot spots worldwide. After his recent trip through the Patagonia, our Dutch photographer and partner in crime, Marc Van der Aa, provided us with pictures that reveal, through his lens, the spectacular and diverse landscapes that crowd the area. You can see his material on Civiles’ Facebook page or in www.farbone.com
We recommend the exclusive fashion story produced by Josefina Bugallo, with Gustavo Di Mario shooting the number one civil Federico Mosquera.
The material has been recently published in Europe, in the super exclusive French magazine I Heart. Another work of art created by a very civil team.

This Argentine young man has been growing in popularity since he was 16, when he created an animated sitcom for MTV. At 19, he directed the short film “¡Yok!,” starring Emmanuel Horvilleur and, shortly after, “Gratis, el rockumental”, which recorded one of Babasónicos’ shows. This new film talent, who honors women’s beauty, continued its career in the production company Banana Films and shooting videos for bands, such as Miranda! and Babasónicos. His first full-length film is “Olympia”, swarming with beautiful models (many of them from Civiles, including Mecha Iñigo). The movie deals with porn industry and social networks, and Ale Sergi was in charge of the soundtrack. Olympia is an 18-year-old girl that spends a lot of money, listens to good music and, through her girlfriend, she enters porn industry. You’ll have to watch the movie to see how this story continues…

The Fashionary Network is a new project by Oscar Madrazo – a key character in the fashion industry in Mexico and Latin America. The idea of Fashionary is to be an electronic medium written in Spanish specialized in international fashion. On the one hand, the site concentrates the most important sources of information and, on the other hand, it generates unique contents offering that way a place to show the creative work both of new talents and of the ones already consolidate in the fashion industry.
A website to bookmark and visit over and over.
Souvenir is a temporary – and itinerant – store project that will be built by Eloise Alemany, Ana Armendariz, and Caro Urresti, three creative local talents, who have got together to share all those objects that fascinate them and that also are the source of inspiration for this idea. Its creators define Souvenir as a “fanciful bazaar where you can find unique pieces chosen in the search, and designs produced today with signature.”
The selection includes artists, designers, cooks, books, and a project of Paraguayan craftsmanship and art.
Souvenir’s first edition will be from December 2 to 24 at Mercedes Hernáez’s workshop (founder of Monoblocks and Mapas de Buenos Aires), Godoy Cruz 1774, in the back, Monday to Saturday, 2-8pm.
The participants of Souvenir’s first edition are the artists: Valeria Belusci; Jazmín Berakha; Pablo Cabrera; Delfina Estrada, Inés Marco y Victoria Volpini (Fábrica de Estampas); Julián Gatto; Lola Goldstein; Verónica Gomez; Silvia Lenardon; Patricia Martinez; Dani Vega; Johanna Wilhelm. The designers: Magalí Anidjar, Gonzalo Arbutti y Matías Resich (Laboratori), Guillermina Baiguera, Carola Bessasso (Dam), Marina Callis (Callis), Leandro Dominguez, Pablo Ferraro (Kom), Paulina Finn, Manuela Grandal, Mercedes Hernáez, Juan Manuel Irurzun (Jota), Magdalena Palandjoglou (Kukla), Valeria Pesqueira (Pesqueira™), Aida Sirinian, Alejandro Sticotti (Net). The cooks: Elsa Manelphe, and Marcela Quinteros. And also: Bonecas dos Sonhos, Luciana Delfabro (Planta Editora), Guadalupe Gaona, Andrés Lehmann, Marcela Plotno, Martín Sabater (Sabater Hnos.), Sol Vera, Padre e Hijo, among others.
As stores within the store, there will be Poema 20 – Dirán Sirinian’s antique bookstore –, with a book selection, and Guaraní – a project born with the drive of making known Paraguayan craftsmanship and art. A little selection of the many, vary, and virtuous creativity, passed from generation to generation, which the neighboring red land has to offer.

A new Civiles’ project that goes beyond the search of new faces.
Scouting Civil is an ambitious project at national level created to bring new trends to the Argentine provinces, enhancing the search for talents and beauties from our lands.
The mission is about travelling all over different cities throughout the length and breadth of the country, discovering the ethnics and esthetics features that everyday are more and more wanted by the main runaways around the world.
Scouting Civil also offers talks about the new model of models, in the most varied scenarios, and invites special guests – top models, photographers and other industry’s key actors.
Identidad Civil Argentina is the name of the book that will register the selection, fashion shows, talks, and productions process all along the Scouting.
A record of the esthetics, personalities, landscapes, culture, and traditions of every area that will try to capture the visualization of the current Argentine identity and to encourage people to know and visit the touristic attractions of each province.
The talented artist Eloisa Ballivian presents the next Monday November 1, at 7pm-10pm, the painting exhibition “Mi espíritu se fue” at Elsi del Río gallery, Humboldt 1510. For those who cannot come to the opening, the paintings will remain exhibited until December 15, and can be seen from Tuesdays to Fridays 2pm-8pm, and on Saturdays 11am-3pm.
Since October 8 until November 7 inclusive the room Prometeus of the Centro Cultural Recoleta will show the exhibition “Limitante,” a tour around the great world of Rafael Delceggio’s commercial photography. This world features an ideal balance between the client’s request and Deleceggio’s personal vision. In Rafael’s works, the theatrical image of the pictures is influenced by the Expressionism of the 40s, which is evidenced through a complex color palette and compositions embedded in a nostalgic character.
The Dutch talent based in Buenos Aires presents, one more time for us, a selection called A bit of south central. These two trips were made in 2009 across Argentina and Central America.
The first leg was held in two weeks and Van Der Aa visited Puerto Madryn, Bariloche, Mendoza, Santiago de Chile and Valparaiso. The second trip was to Guatemala, Belize and parts of Mexico. There, he visited some paradise sites: Tulum San Pedro and Semuc Champey.

On July 19th, the journalist specialized in fashion Victoria Lescano, launched her second book, “Prêt-à-Rocker” (Planeta Publishing Company), in Ultra Bar, with friends and guests from fashion and music world, such as Noelia Mourier (Coco), Ricky Rúa (Los Brujos, El Otro Yo) and Pablo Ramírez, amongst others.
Rock consumption is mediated by the image: the listeners look at the cover and at the pictures of the CD`s booklet while listening to the music, they watch the videoclip of a song and perceive the scenic and choreographic deployment at a concert. We can conclude, then, that the symbiotic audiovisual relationship between fashion and rock always exists”, says the author.
In “Prêt-à-Rocker”, Lescano stamps her singular view of the relationship between fashion and rock in Argentina, since its beginnings to the present. More than forty years of history reviewed through the testimonies of its main protagonists: musicians, wardrobe artists and other creators from music and fashion industry.
