He studied graphic design at the National University, his real name is Andrés Montoya. He hides behind the alias of Toxicómano Callejero. He is very good designer, but bad cartoonist, in fact, very bad. Then he decided to design his graffiti from his home computer and then experiment with the stencil. So the proposal carries a graphic design with social content to the street.
The style he uses are high-contrast images in black and white with a sign right next to make sure the image style is like advertisement. At other times he copies standard images of advertising and changes their message. His images cause laughter. His messages often include wordplay and double meanings and this makes an impression on the public.
Toxicomano means drug addict in Europe, He choose this name because of the strong reaction it offers and because He wanted to be different from other artists using Anglicisms or simple syllables to be named.
At first, he would go out only to scratch the walls at night, until a policeman approached him and asked: What are you doing? and he answered: Nothing bad. Then the policeman replied and if you are doing nothing wrong eventhough it is so late? Toxicomano then thought for several days about the policemans question and one day he decided to paint during the day.. Now nobody says anything because they think it is legal or that he has permission to paint on the wall.
These days in which technologies continue to entertain the audience by telling stories combined. It has survived the simple art of storytelling and oral narrative
The storytelling is the art of telling stories or events, real or imagined a group of people, using tools as key word and gesture of the narrator, in a situation of lively and direct communication.
The storytelling arrived in Bogota more than 20 years ago by Cuban and Spanish influence. The first place where he practiced storytelling was in the Chorro de Quevedo, thanks to the bohemian, cultural and academic environment that is perceived in place.
This art came to fame with the worldwide success of stand up comedy (very near to the storytelling art) La Pelota de Letras Andrés López in 2004. This art is practiced in various public spaces such as the Chorro de Quevedo , Maloka, Lourdes and Space Storytelling Usaquén.
There in space, among the stories coming out of their minds or the minds of the writers come to light jokes about Bogota on Colombia or the reality of the average Bogotano. Each storyteller has its own style.
For example, Fabian David, outraged by the lack of historical memory before colonization in Colombia, likes to tell about Indian mythology, Pablo Torres, making his childhood experiences and becomes literature and Toño, classic-making literature and converts in living history.
Usaquen space allows storytellers to try out new stories, or practice other very necessary when counting in private shows or theaters skills. For example, here's the story of La Chica Más Linda de la ciudad.

On tuesday, february nne, the School of communication at Universidad de la Sabana, In commmemoration of the day of the journalist decided to offer a conference called, El Reality, la Novela del Momento. In wich were Bibiana Jimenez, an audovisual producer form Universidad de La Sabana, and Marta Bossio, writer an libretist. They Spoke spoke from perspective of creating a reality and a TV novel about the storytelling that colombians prefer; the advantages and disadvantages of each gender, differences in the creation of time and space, the creation and modification of characters, the lifestyle of every woman and surprisingly also spoke about de future of the television industry
They were trying to dissapear Osuna’s
investigation of the last four years about paramilitary crimes in Norte de
Santander, a colombian state that limit to Venezuela.
“I’ll just leave
journalism when Im obsolete and not
because Im afraid ”Osuna a colombian journalist.
Osuna in his journalistic
investigation disclosed that more than 400 people were taken to the ovens used
by the paramilitary groups located just 40 minutes from Cucuta, Norte de
Santander. These people were extorted citizens and were also opponents of the ideology
of self-defense .
Keep in mind that according Fabiola Posada, Correspondent in Colombia Reporters Without Borders, which once outside former paramilitaries believed that the situation presented to Javier can again become dangerous, however we must continue with the work that has been doing . "I know Javier has
decided to continue reporting . Hopefully effectively within the framework of
post-conflict and the government's intention to prove that no protection
schemes need not withdraw schemes such as Javier Osuna , "said Posada . But to what extent the government can be involved in these acts ?, a question that arises in these press freedom issues. At this Fabiola says you have to be clear that " linking state agents with paramilitary groups is evident from many organizations across many reports you would say that many of these actions, including threats against Javier Osuna , could have effectively this commitment. Usually a journalist is threatened not only under fire from the armed group but also on the political and economic interest of those with this armed group". That is why this reporter reporters without borders does not rule out that this is the situation of Javier Osuna.
Osuna based his research
in the book Me Hablarás del Fuego showing many of the dark chapters of cruelty
to which he is subjected Colombia by illegal armed groups.
In
the other hand, Fabiola Posada, correspondent in Colombia Reporters Without
Borders says that the problem of impunity in the country about the liberated
rather worried expression because " there are situations that have become
more acute in the case of Javier and other journalists , with the release of
several former paramilitaries who benefited the process of justice and peace".
Also, these violent acts
against the journalist Javier Osuna makes it clear that the violation of freedom of the press, freedom of expression remains appellant by public entities and groups operating
outside the law in order to prevent certain information that may affect it is
published .
But to what extent the government can be involved in these acts ?, a question that arises in these press freedom issues. At this Fabiola says you have to be clear that " linking state agents with paramilitary groups is evident from many organizations across many reports you would say that many of these actions, including threats against Javier Osuna , could have effectively this commitment.
