I want to told you about something that my group of friends and I talk a lot here in the university: What tipe of postgrade you will do?
As you know, I'm a studying Art History and here, in Chile, theres is not a lot of field to work to and is very hard to find a job. In a few words: if you study something related to arts, you gonna starve. So, the best way to "survive" is be the great of the greatest (ok, maybe I'm exaggerating): have good grades, have a lot of knowledge about autors and related themes, make the professors notice you, etc. But, of course, if you want to do the work related to your career the rest of your life.
The point is, you need to do a postgraduate course, and I have thinking about it A LOT and get to the conclusion that I want to do one about pre-Hispanic art or Colonial Art. I love both, mainly the pre-Hispanic one.
Opposite of my classmates, I love the these themes, I adore the mysterious behind the Mesoamerican and Andean pre-Hispanic Art, the meaning of the colors, the gods and goddesses, their leadears, etc. And all of that is strongly relationated to the Colonial Art, because the missionary groups that came to America after the conquer made a relation between the natives gods/goddesses with the christian god and saints. Is great!
But, I know if I want to do something big (like a doctorate) that I wil have to made it in Perú or México (depends if I want to focus in Mesamerica or The Andes), I'm not a big fan of travelling alone (even less if is abroard, even EVEN less to México), but is necessary, I don't have the means to do it in Chile. So, be it. But I think that here I have everything that I need for something like a master.
Maybe I will take a part-time course, because I really need being teach with a teacher in a physical place, also I will have the time to work and help at home, that will be nice!
Also! If I choose pre-Hispanic I can assure you that I will want to be close to professor Zoltan! He is the greatest teacher!
This is the goddess Coyolxauhqui, this aztec work is one of my favorite, specially for the myth related to it
That is all for now!Good-Bye little cupcakes!

I love prehispanic stuff to! and our teacher Zoltan is a genius in that area! you may talk to him much more, maybe he could guide you
