A collection of vintage Che Guevara prints are on display in Austria, including the iconic 1960 portrait of him in a beret, and a new statue memorializing the revolutionary has been unveiled in his native Argentina.

The tributes on two continents show that Guevara continues to have cult status 40 years after his death.”*

As a new US-made film about Che Guevara picked up an award at Cannes, his son Camilo has expressed hopes that a Cuban director might also one day make a film about his father.

“That would seem right to me,” he told AFP, a few days before the opening in Vienna of an exhibition showing photos of Che Guevara, to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the legendary revolutionary’s birth. “*

Oscar-winner Benicio Del Toro, the Puerto Rican-born star often dubbed the “Latino Brad Pitt”, won Cannes’ Best Actor award Sunday for his role as “Che” Guevara in Steven Soderbergh’s film on the revolutionary hero.

“I’d like to dedicate this to the man himself, Che Guevara,” said the actor, after accepting his second big award under the US director’s helmsmanship.

“I wouldn’t be here without Che Guevera, and through all the awards the movie gets you’ll have to pay your respects to the man.”"*

Poised for a Breakthrough year with co-starring role in Steven Soderbergh’s “THE ARGENTINE”

Official selection of the 2008 Cannes Film Festival

It’s in the “Cannes” for Puerto Rican Actor Alfredo De Quesada who co-star as “Israel Pardo” in the first installment of the Steven Soderbergh’s Che Guevara biopic: “The Argentine” and “Guerilla” premiering at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival on May 21.”*

The emblematic and infamous image of Che Guevara was present at the Carpenter Performing Arts Center on Nov. 29 through a presentation on the life of the Argentinian political figure and revolutionary.

“Che Guevara; The Man, The Myth, The Icon,” chronicled the life of Guevara from an asthmatic youth to his death in the jungles of Bolivia. Presented by the former director of Long Beach’s Museum of Latin American Art, Gregorio Luke, the lecture included hundreds of rare photographs, video footage and historical documents to provide a thorough narrative on the figure’s life.”*

I think I need a weird news section

“A former CIA operative and Cuban exile plans to auction what he says is a lock of Che Guevara’s hair, snipped before the Argentinian revolutionary and friend of Fidel Castro was buried in 1967.

Gustavo Villoldo, 71, was involved in Guevara’s capture in the jungles of Bolivia, according to unclassified U.S. records and other documents. He plans to auction the hair and other items kept in a scrapbook since the joint CIA-Bolivian army mission 40 years ago.”

“When Ronaldo Cruz first began working for the church, he thought of himself as a Chicano activist. He was involved with the farmworker and sanctuary movements and was running a social services agency that primarily served Mexican-Americans in Tucson, Ariz.

“I thought I was going to become the next Che Guevara,” the revolutionary, he joked about his younger self.

He never expected those interests and his lifelong involvement as a Catholic would lead to a 35-year career in the church — a combination of ministry and work which is ending at least temporarily as he leaves his job of 16 years as executive director of Hispanic affairs for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. He was assistant director for several years before that.”

“The Latino Coalition has invited Maria Conchita Alonso to speak at its upcoming 2007 Small Business Economic Summit in Washington D.C. May 1-2 to respond to statements made by Hugo Chavez about the state of affairs in Venezuela, including his decision not to renew the license of Venezuela’s longest airing TV Network and the purchase of new high-tech weapons and surveillance systems from Russia.

Robert Deposada of the Coalition states, “The Coalition has a mandate to bring all sides to the arena and many stars, including Danny Glover, and according to Chavez, Oliver Stone, have shown public support for Hugo Chavez. We wanted to give Maria Conchita Alonso, a Venezuelan citizen, a forum to vocalize an opposing point of view.”

Maria Conchita says, “I thank The Latino Coalition for giving me this opportunity, as last year I was campaigning in Venezuela against Chavez, but the situation there has further deteriorated and I feel it is no longer safe for me, so I have taken the fight to film and am producing a movie called, TWO MINUTES OF HATE, which shows in real footage how, at the 2002 march Chavez’ assassins gunned down opposition protesters. Although Danny Glover and I did a film together, we have different points of view. I don’t think Sean Penn and Clint Eastwood, who work together, always share the same political views, although I do believe they express those views due to their caring and commitment. I respect all my fellow actors but I think I carry a more experiential voice, as I have already had to leave Cuba and Venezuela.”

“The film, which I am co-producing with BOBBY producer, Edward Bass, will utilize actual clips of Chavez coming over the airwaves in his comical and yet cynical manner,” says Maria Conchita. “The situation there has evolved to the point that Freedom House, a nongovernmental worldwide organization, ranks Venezuela second only to Cuba in terms of suppressing press freedom in the Americas,” she comments.

The writer, who wishes to remain anonymous but goes by the pseudonym of Jorge Tortoza, (in honor of one of the journalists assassinated by Chavez at the march) says, “This film is of course much different from BOBBY. In this case, the voice of the president is comical and yet frightening as he typifies a stereotypical dictator as in George Orwell’s 1984. The script is being held under tight security. We want to make sure Chavez will not see it in its finished form until he goes to the movie theater like everyone else.”

“Although many candidates and most probably George Bush will be at the event, I am not yet a US citizen and I am not endorsing any political figure,” says Maria. “However, a voice against Bush should not be a voice for Chavez. Sometimes, the public is just misled, for example in the case of Mao Tse Tung, in which both Richard Nixon and John Lennon were wearing Mao jackets while millions of artists and intellectuals were killed. Che Guevara, who has so many films immortalizing him, was afraid of motorcycles and was more of a homophobic than even Fidel Castro, and a professional assassin who loved his work, but is immortalized as if he were Gandhi.”

She continues, “Chavez, however, is much more dangerous. He will easily pass Fidel on the Forbes list as he has all the oil money at his disposal. Venezuelan press, newspapers, radio stations and TV are being shut down, and we are heading in the direction of Cuba where soon people will not even be allowed Internet access, and the children will be “owned” by the government. I decided to go to The Latino Coalition especially after Barbara Walters’ interview with Chavez. Barbara got back to me, but I did not succeed in convincing her to allow me an opportunity to give a factual rebuttal.”

Edward Bass states, “Maria Conchita has never been a sell out. As the most famous Venezuelan actress, if she was a ‘Chavista’, she could be riding on the gravy train and receiving the multi-million dollar grants that many are receiving from him. Her courage, even with her life in jeopardy, is a profound example of bravery. She is using her celebrity status and artistic ability to fight for those whose voices are muffled, they are second class citizens in their own country. They can’t go to the same beaches, hotels or stores that the ruling elite and cash-rich foreigners visit.

Bass continues, “With Maria, our production and financing entity, after looking at dozens of Latino based material put this one at the top, as it is not the same old storyline. Although this is based in Venezuela, it’s a love story and the backdrop is Venezuela as the sinking Titanic.”

Deposada also says, “Although The Latino Coalition is not here to take sides, we take pride in our ability to confront the issues, and we extend the invitation to actors such as Sean Penn, Tim Robbins, Danny Glover or whomever, and want to offer them equal time or an invitation to debate Maria Conchita.”

She concludes, “TWO MINUTES OF HATE” is far from a documentary. It is actually a beautiful story of two people in love, one from the Chavez camp, and one from the opposition, and we tried to give a fair and balanced view of the mistakes that were made in Venezuela that created the climate and void that allowed this dictator to enter the arena as Hitler did in the 30’s.”

“Can the lowly tortilla change the destiny of a local arts institution?

Perhaps, if its the handiwork of Los Angeles artist Joe Bravo, whose tortilla art exhibition has become the attraction of the decade at the Mexican Cultural Institute in historic Olvera Street. And the paintings done on tortillas ”” featuring colorful images of the Virgin of Guadalupe, an Aztec warrior and Che Guevara, among others ”” are fetching as much as $1,800 apiece.”

“A great example of this is Yul Vázquez. You’ve undoubtedly seen him before, whether it be as part of the cast of Steven Soderbergh’s award-winning crime drama Traffic, playing a Cuban gangster in Michael Bay’s Bad Boys II, as Julia Roberts’ ex-fiance in Runaway Bride, or in his recurring role as Bob, the Hispanic homosexual, on the sitcom “Seinfeld.”

In the last year, Vázquez has been making the move from being a bit player to taking on more prominent supporting roles and even leads in a number of movies, whether it be reuniting with Steven Soderbergh and Benicio Del Toro in the Che Guevara biopic Guerilla or playing Russell Crowe’s fellow cop in Ridley Scott’s American Gangster or playing the lead in the indie horror movie Southern Gothic.”

“Two men entered Latino Books y Mas in Palm Springs on July 5 with video cameras and confronted the principal owner of the store, Tonia Bustamante-Ramirez, because she sells books and posters featuring Mexican revolutionary heroes Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata, and Cuban revolutionary Che Guevara.

Bustamante-Ramirez said the two men’s remarks and questions were intimidating, and the video was posted two days later on the Web site YouTube, on which users can post self-made videos. As of Thursday afternoon, nearly 1,400 people had viewed at least part of the video, which is nearly seven minutes long.”

“The Lost City is an intensely personal project for Garcia. An ode to his homeland, Cuba, it’s full of the passion Hispanic culture is known for””as he portrays family life, the social scene, and, of course, the politics of a troubled island.

The film is set in late-1950s Cuba, right on the eve of la revolución, and Garcia, who directed and stars, crashes straight into the myth of Che Guevara””¡Gracias a Dios! The Lost City has something for everyone: contagious music, a love story, family drama””and familiar faces in Bill Murray, playing to type, and Dustin Hoffman, playing a mobster. But it’s a love story unlike anything Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks or any chick-flick might bring you””here the love between a man and woman can’t escape the brutality of sacrifice and tyranny, and is but one love, where democracy is a deep and abiding one.”

“Andy Garcia is urging fashion-conscious rebels to stop wearing T-shirts emblazoned with the image of Latino revolutionary Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara because they remind Cubans of terrible times. The actor accepts that Guevara stands for rebellion and is seen as a hero to many, but he sees the revolutionary as a butcher who killed millions of his countrymen.

Argentine-born Guevara helped current Cuban leader Fidel Castro overthrow General Fulgencio Batista’s government in a guerrilla revolution in the late 1950s.”

“Or, Che Guevara est mortuus

Heard a Mexican-American caller last night on local talk radio berating the Cuban-American community for its lack of support of this week’s protests by La Raza, etal, around the country. His gripe, as you can imagine, was that according to him, Cuban “immigrants” get special treatment from the US government. And since we all speak Spanish, you see, we are all the same and thus, the Cuban-American community has betrayed their “Latino” and “Hispanic” brothers and sisters in arms because we didn’t support their cause while receiving said preferential treatment.”

“From rock concerts, to soccer games, to college dorm rooms, Che Guevara’s image can be found everywhere and is one of the most recognizable icons in the world.”

“ONE OF cinema’s leading Latin American actors has attacked Hollywood for perpetuating derogatory stereotypes of Hispanic people.

Gael Garcí Bernal, the Mexican star of Amores Perros, Y Tu Mama Tambien and The Motorcycle Diaries, in which he played a young Che Guevara, was speaking on stage at the National Film Theatre in The Times Screen Talk, part of The Times bfi London Film Festival.”
