Welcome to my website, formerly known as
both artesculiacan.com and artesmonterrey.com
A little more
than six months ago, I fled from the state of Sinaloa, Mexico, one
of the most corrupt states in the country, in fear of my
life.
The story of the uncovering of abusive , destructive,
and completely unethical behavior by some of the most widely admired
Mexican artists and artistic administrators, funded with public
money, is the story of my life for the last seventeen
years. It was my great pleasure to collaborate with and
promote many young talents during my stay, as I had gladly done
during my career as a teacher in the United States between 1972 and
1990. It was my great sadness to see the abuse of such fine
people by the powerful, self-adulating, and demonic Mexican
hierarchy of the Arts establishment. This in a country where
the average daily pay is TEN dollars.
You can read
about all of this by clicking on the appropriate link. In
addition, I invite you to listen to several of the Mexican singers
that I worked with in the archives section.
Now that six
months have passed, and I have had a time to heal, both emotionally
and physically, I plan to take the opportunity to continue working
with young artists in California, where I have relocated, while
at the same time bringing to light, the corruption
in the system south of the border that has caused so much
grief.
In addition, I invite you to visit the photo diary of
my puggle pup Giacomo, named for Signor Puccini, my favorite
composer. When I think of the sadness in Mexico, a moment or
two with Giacomo is the cure.
Thanks for
visiting,
Eric Steinman
