"
The intention of including the tango in higher education represents a very important turning point for university activities. "In the school of psychology are working to provide a series of talks to bring students to tango," said Jubany. As said material will be very productive in the curriculum.

"A thousand verses to Picasso" from Madrid to Rosario
Carrying a simple and admirable human quality, the teacher Ferrer and his wife Lulu - as he calls it - talked exclusively to this reporter, which counted some backstage daily as part of the tireless work they carry out for art and popular culture, as well as on his new book.
The genesis of the book "A thousand to see you to Picasso" has a very particular history, as the drawings that accompany each tango poems were presented in the most important cultural centers in the world with rave reviews. Micheli said that a few years ago made a fantastic "From Lulu to Picasso "at the Madrid Art Gallery Annta occasion in which her husband recited poetry to the accompaniment of English pianist Yaco González.
"At first the gallery owner was not quite agree with that I expose my work because it was known in Spain - Micheli confessed - but as I always say, I have the luck to be next to a large as Horace. " The words of the artist not only confirm his humble nature, as the criticism of the leading newspapers in Madrid were impeccable art regarding their works, which categorized as "true picasianas visions mode itself Lulu "and represented under" a figurative and surrealist art. " Also, it was subsequently shown in Paris and around Florianópolis but that part of her husband's work "and that while he wrote his poems" she "drew and painted."
Existentialism and Surrealism tango de Micheli
It is intriguing to imagine the coexistence of existentialism so real with the surreal tango de Micheli, and as such, so irreverent features characteristic of this movement and so inconsistent. In this regard, Ferrer said: "I met Lulu during an exhibition of her at the bar The Poetry of San Telmo and got into a world of painting. Although I've been a draftsman, I stopped painting when I fell in love with her because the couple should not compete. She makes her paintings and my poetry and I complement each other and are in perfect harmony. "
Ferrer married life is marked by the art from the beginning of the day. Both were told that "separated at noon they come back together at night." "Lulu works in his studio he has in barracks because we live in a very small department, but with a view that reaches the coast of Uruguay, yet share many things together, "he concluded.
