Ministry of Culture: Towards where you
Yesterday October 6 , at 6 pm was held the meeting of the flamboyant Minister of Culture, Don Juan Ossio Acuña, and his staff, deputy ministers, directors and officials of autonomous bodies attached to the Ministry (AGN, IRTP, National Library), with representatives of several cultural institutions linked to the person.
This meeting, which had initially held in the auditorium of the Incas National Museum and was taken late Nasca Hall of the museum, called over a thousand people, many of them even had to stay outside the classroom for lack of space and seating. Someone complained about how there were invited to two thousand people when the room could only accommodate a thousand? We started badly, Mincu?
At the meeting, which was used by the Minister explain in very general guidelines that will be the new ministry, also spoke Intercultural Deputy doctor Vilcapoma, Vice Minister of Heritage, Mr. Roca Rey, new director of the AGN, Joseph Dager, the National Library, Ramón Mujica, among others.
"I want to be a vehicle for the development of culture ... and I'm primarily a libertarian, so I was a member of the Freedom Movement," said Juan Ossio anecdotally, surely recalling Mario Vargas Llosa, who the following day would be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature.
Grato see Mauricio Salas was reconfirmed Director of Promotion for the Arts, that is also a member of the Peruvian Committee for Conservation of Industrial Heritage (Copecopi), although in fact nothing was said about this heritage, let alone when speaking of new types of assets mentioned including the growth of food tourism in Peru.
Ossio was asked how he would do for the Historic Center of Lima, where he was going to take to printers that are destroying many old houses, but the obvious answers were general, but noted that the commitment already agreed. All the wrangling in the same direction, although time is short, since the new Minister only touches only a year to start the engines of culture and get somewhere.
