Paulina del Paso took that comment with a large dose of irony, and created a really amazing mandala of video loops of women in Mexican media and television. It was truly spectacular. I include a still from the installation/video loop.

Great video installation remix from Mexico
I went to the FICG (Festival Internacional de Cine en Guadalajara) and one of the stand out pieces was actually an art piece. Created by Paulina del Paso, it was a video loop within a dark room of about 4 minutes long, commenting on women in mexican media. The installation was called Cabello Largo, Ideas Cortas. (Long Hair, Short Ideas). The idea behind that is attributed to the philosopher Arthur Schopenhaur: - “The woman is an animal with long hair and short-sighted”
