Spanish village encourages immigrants – March 8 09

Economic worries in Spain have seen many people leave their small villages, moving to towns and cities to find work.

But, instead of giving up hope, many of these remote communities are now welcoming immigrants, hoping that they can bring life back to the isolated areas.

Emma Hayward reports.

Spain Battles Illegal Muslim Immigration / España Batallas Inmigración Musulmana Ilegal

The bodies are anonymous, rotting in the shallows of the Straits of Gibraltar. The fortunate ones are dragged out for a hasty burial. They are Africans trying to make it to Europe, betting their lives on a nine-mile ride, thousands losing that bet each year.
Spain used to be an open door for illegal immigrants. An estimated one-quarter of all smuggled immigrants into Europe came through the Southern coast of Spain, most setting off from Morocco.
The sticks and stones of frustrated border guards had little effect against a rising tide of human traffic.
But all that changed on March 11. Most of the terrorists who killed 190 people on commuter trains in Madrid were Moroccan. Suddenly, the immigrant problem was a security problem.
Under pressure at home and from other European nations, rubber batons at the border were replaced by speedboats but success, so far, is limited.
“The numbers are down here by 50 percent,” said Lt. David Oliva of the Spanish Border Guard. “But the smugglers are just moving to other parts of the coast.”
Although only nine miles separate Africa from Europe, that stretch contains some of the most dangerous currents in the world. Now, some people in Africa are so desperate, they are ready to pay $1,000 a head just to get across, and they’ll take their chances on anything that floats.
Seventy-five people from the Moroccan village of Tangier drowned trying to cross the waters last month. When FOX News approached families of the victims, they started to cry. One man lost 21 relatives.
With no electricity, jobs, education, or running water, there is nothing to do but wait for someone to get them out of the area. “These people are so desperate they are ready to die,” said Khalil Jemmah, a Moroccan aid worker. “It’s just a question of who gets here first, the smugglers or the terrorists.”
More often than not, it’s the terrorists who are getting there first.
It was a Moroccan who is accused of killing filmmaker Theo Van Gogh in the Netherlands this month. The murder set off weeks of ethnic and religious clashes and skirmishes in Spain in what may eventually become a pan-European battle, fueled by the failure to integrate a new, illegal Muslim population.

ART SOIREE – MOMENTS IN SPAIN by Alyona Vogelmann

ART SOIREE
Hosted by Sandro & Tati

WWW.THEARTSOIREE.COM

EXCLUSIVE OPENING OF A PHOTO EXHIBIT
MOMENTS IN SPAIN by Alyona Vogelmann

…WHEN: Thursday, August 4th, 7pm-Closing ($10 cover (cash only); RSVP to artsoireedc@gmail.com)

WHERE: CITIES Restaurant & Lounge, 919 19th Street NW, Washington DC 20006 CitiesWashington.com

Join us at CITIES Restaurant & Lounge for the exclusive opening of a photo exhibit by Alyona Vogelmann and discover for yourself, as she did, a whole world of street scenes of Spain. CITIES eclectic and meticulously crafted menu inspired by a variety of world cuisines, and a delightful cocktail and sparkling wine menu will further transport attendees to exotic and far away destinations, while DJ HAMMOND will add to the environment with a stunning mix of melodies.

“Once I took a brush in my hands, the world would transform into that wonderful, intensely hued reality that I saw while counting colors as a little girl.” Since early childhood, Alyona has been fascinated by seeing multiple colors in the objects even the simplest ones, such as a plain grey wall. Not knowing it, she possessed the same vision as the one impressionists captured in their paintings. Only years later she realized, that their paintings were representation of her colorful world in an absolutely perfect way. “I didn’t have the same skills but I felt that I had the same vision. The same vision as Monet perhaps! I was secretly very proud of it.”

Later on the brush in her hands was replaced by the camera and she learned to see the world through the lens — in color and in black and white. On her trips to Europe, to the places where Impressionism was born she took tons of pictures with her camera, inspired by the divine combination of light, atmosphere, people and landscape of a place she was at the moment.

During her recent trip to Spain in an attempt to capture little glimpse of Spanish culture, Alyona got fascinated by how ordinary moments that go by unseen by many people become captured for eternity with a click of a shutter, as the result is her unique photo collection “Moments in Spain.”

The complete stories behind these photos may remain untold, but you can just imagine them by looking at each of the image… An accordion player in Granada throwing his hands in the air as the final expression of his performance. The elderly couple in Sevilla proudly caring themselves across the town square hand in hand. A little girl in Madrid dressed as a miniature adult holding onto her dad’s hand gazing into the street. Maybe she is counting colors, who knows?

Originally from Russia, Alyona Vogelmann is classically trained artist with a degree in Fine Art and Fashion Design. After immigrating to the United States in 1997, she transferred her artistic skills to the world web design. In 2009 she graduated with a degree in professional photography from Center for Digital Arts at Boston University and now specializes in portraiture, wedding and travel photography in Washington DC metro area.

More information about Alyona Vogelmann, her photography and the opportunity to support her creativity by purchasing her work, sponsorship or commissioning her talents may be found on her website at http://www.alyonavogelmann​.com/ or by calling 301-461-4800

Hammond began his career unofficially several years ago in South Carolina with DJ Andres Catlla. Proving the South was too small for him, and his appetite for adventure too great, Hammond relocated to Washington DC in March of 2008 to officially become The District’s DJ ‘Ambassador of Fun’. Since moving to the city, he adopted the DJ booth as his new home and spins a variety of house music genres including but not limited to deep, funky, and soulful house.

CITIES offers a sleek and contemporary setting with areas for lounging, mixing, and mingling as you explore the wonderful art on view. So, come and enjoy an evening of great ambiance in the company of internationally minded, socially established, and artistically inclined strata of Washingtonians.

We look forward to seeing you at
