 National Monument to the Flag
We entered Belgrano’s crypt and under the monument —on Santa Fe Street— we saw the Gallery in Honor of the Flags, where various emblems from the countries of the world are exhibited presided over by the Argentinian Flag.
Thanks to her we learnt that the building is made up of three parts: the tower with Manuel Belgrano’s crypt, from where the vantage point can be accessed, the Patio Cívico and the Propyleaum —where we were standing— and the Room in honor of the Flags of America underneath.
The city of Rosario was marked by a historical fact whose relevance transcended the local context, setting a landmark on national history: the hoisting of the National Flag created by Manuel Belgrano, on the cliffs of the Paraná River in February 27, 1872.

 Jasper Johns
A struggling artist in New York City, he painted, during the next three years, more flags, as well as targets, stenciled numbers or letters, and other emblems that filled the entire surface of the canvas, forcing an awareness of the painting as the object itself.
Johns exhibited his first flag paintings at the important Leo Castelli Gallery in 1958.
From that time, flags, along with his other "borrowed" images, are associated in the public mind with Jasper Johns.

 Lopez Museum » ArtScene: Earth to Sky by Kawayan de Guia
Working outside of the gallery, creating temporary installations that call on the prayer flags of Tibetan Buddhism, flower mandalas, photographic interventions within the city of Baguio, and walks across the mountain country of the North, de Guia's practice takes on a myriad of expressions.
Earth to Sky is a project that comes from outside the known gallery circuit of Manila and rises above its very confines.
Kawayan de Guia's practice does not assume easily identifiable definitions caught within the matrix of current art practice and written history.

But it's the monsters themselves that really astound: a gruesome gallery of slimy, tentacled, bulbous beasts who manage to be completely grotesque yet instantly likable (apart from Randall that is, who's a scheming salamander voiced by Steve Buscemi).
In the city of Monstropolis, power is generated by the screams of human tots, collected by an ace team of "scarers" who enter the human world through the petrified tykes' bedroom closets.
The idea of ordinary Joes punching in at a terror factory is a clever one, and it's deftly developed to incorporate petty rivalries, corporate corruption, and romance between co-workers.

 COASTER-net.com > Ride Gallery > Medusa, Six Flags Mexico, Mexico City, Mexico
Medusa (not to be confused with Six Flags' two United States steel floorless loopers) arrived on the Mexican wooden coaster scene with the redebut of the park under the Six Flags on June 2, 2000 with 3,136 feet of coiling, winding, serpentine wooden rails twisting through a unique custom-designed layout.
The park needed a star attraction to tie its ride lineup together, and Six Flags found just that in contracting Custom Coasters International to put together a wooden coaster experience to have any coaster enthusiast converting their dollars to pesos and heading to Mexico City.
After the top, the train performs a left-hand curve and begins to dive towards the lift, veering to the right and pulling out of the drop as wooden structure rushes past at the top 55-MPH speeds.

Smith's brash works are on image overload, starting with the first piece you see entering the gallery, his ''Struts and Flags." Like all of his work in the show, this quartet of little pieces is tacked directly onto the wall, which gives them the immediacy of posters slapped onto city buildings.
Both the restricted colors and the repeating circles within circles unify this work, which comes across as a lyrical version of the ''target" paintings of Kenneth Noland and Jasper Johns.
The palette is warm and muted, from off-white to taupe, which gives a ghostly quality to the piece.
