Chapter Three
Chapter Three
At Tacuarambò I went with my friend Johannes that had to do a small sculpture course; he thought to go at an art school, but he discovered it was a municipal Association for the elderly, people really unfamiliar with the art .
However it was an interesting experience for everyone.
There was also time to visit the place, poor and metaphysician, a reality of the Uruguay of that time .
Tacuarambò
Pando
Pando is a suburb of Montevideo, low houses with a” quadra” between one and another, muddy dirt roads during the winter.
It was the suburb where Lorenzo, emigrated to Uruguay in 1952, lived with his wife and two children.
He did a hard work and he hold the regret of having left a land in Piemonte that few years later, in the sixties , would become rich for its vineyards.
Regrets and bitterness to be so far from his Mother Country and for not being able to give more to his family.
A sincere and honest person, one of the many emigrants who did not have luck.
