Un lugar a donde ir
Guided by her intuitions about space and architecture, Mariela Vita wonders what the Nakagin Tower, an improvised gym on a beach in Rio de Janeiro, the training area of a naval military school in Ensenada, a playground designed by Noguchi have in common?
Oceanica
By overflowing the borders between fiction and reality, between human and non-human, between science and spirituality, Oceanica links universes of cyborg love and post-apocalyptic dystopia, and deploys a stage for the dispute of the territories of contemporaries language, relationships and affection.
Caudal
In Joaquín’s paintings, everything gets intertwined, and in that intertwining the outlines, once rigid and finished, get soft and porous; in the overlap of small gestures, shapes and colors which become dirty with one another and almost unrecognizable, the references to the world around us and its principle of difference fade.
Catalogue: Temporada fulgor. Foto Estudio Luisita Buenos Aires
This—the heart of the Foto Estudio Luisita archive—offers us an opportunity to blur the boundaries of the photography canon with its rigid limits between the commercial and the artistic, between institutions and the vast world that lives at their margins, an opportunity to delve into the images of the body with no intellectual qualms or squeamishness.
Museums as Carrier Bags. A Short Story Around Collecting
I want to propose a story about museums and collections that can bring us closer to Le Guin’s theory of the handbag approach. One that takes us through the small and less visited alleys of museum history, where the Heroes never even arrived.
Temporada Fulgor. Foto Estudio Luisita
Temporada Fulgor presents a selection from the largest body of work that the sisters decided to preserve: the revue theater photos taken between 1964 and 1980. This set of images offers a canon of beauty of a time when hegemonic and patriarchal corporality and eroticism were centerstage, a canon assembled for the mass consumption that dominated popular culture and that, under so many retouched phantasmagoric layers, begins to crack.
MaytoDay: Myths of the Near Future
MaytoDay commemorated the civil uprisings of May 18, 1980 in the city of Gwangju. The book brings together the collaborations of four teams of curators from Asia and Latin America to think about memory, democratization movements and the state of democracy today.
Myths of the Near Future
Myths of the Near Future brings together artists who actively and poetically revisit militant films from the late 60s, old Korean protest songs, degraded craft techniques, forgotten archives and shamanic rituals; they collaborate with others, human and non-human witnesses of tragedy and violence.
Del Prete or Pictorial Gluttony
There is no evolutionary chain or fate on the horizon 104 in Del Prete’s procedures. What there is, is an arachnid construction and a voracious appetite paired with somewhat slow digestion. Discussions of his modernity and affinities, of his lines of kinship (ancestors and descendants) matter little today.
The Nose, the Princess and a Bowl of Rice. Bits of Decolonization (of the unconscious) in Korean art
This essay analyzes how three Korean artists address precariousness embodied in issues of colonialism, patriarchy, gender, social normativity, and the asphyxiation of desire, as their own places of enunciation and starting point for decolonization, as opposed to mere objects of observation.
