Richard Garet at the 1st International Biennial of Contemporary Art of Cartagena de Indias, Colombia | |
Museo Historico de Cartagena de Indias (Palacio de la Inquisicion) Berta Sichel, Artistic Director The Liberation of Meaning This is a sound-installation that uses the work of Uruguayan poet, Mario Benedetti, as the source material for creating a sonic-field that changes every time it is played. Using 53 recordings of Benedetti’s poems, recorded by the poet’s voice himself, Richard Garet fragmented each of the 53 poems, by cutting words or short snippets from it, and he created hundreds of edited derivatives from the poems that he then placed into a computer folder for generative configuration purposes. The audio tracks are being selected randomly and played algorithmically dismantling the compositional syntax and the poetic structure of Benedetti’s poems. Subsequently, this presentation of Benedetti’s broken-up text introduces an element of chance that creates a new structural outcome every time it is played, drawing attention not only to sound and listening, but also onto the explorations of language, meaning, and subjectivity. The visitors will be able to navigate the environment listening a sustained phonetic generative playback of intertwined sounds emphasizing the voice’s timber, subtle mouth sounds, and unique idiosyncratic gestures of Benedetti’s voice and speech delivery. Moreover the visitors will also establish their own interpretations of the words’ newly established relational structures as they grasp personal meaning from their own personal listening experience. This piece will play indefinitely and it won’t ever play the same way twice. |

Portraits of a Tornado Path Thursday, Feb 28 at 8pm Yehuda Halevi st. no.57, Tel Aviv, Israel On 22 May 2011, a tornado ripped through Joplin, Missouri. The strength and magnitude of the tornado left a trail of destruction of 3/4 wide and 6 miles long. It took lives of 153 people and within minutes thousands of people became homeless. My trip to Joplin was striking. The level of destruction was such that during my five days every morning seemed like the first day. I was intrigued by the fact that within minutes, the familiarity of the people of Joplin and the landscape had turned into inhospitable and unfamiliar zone. This is what initially pushes me to this place and in my work I wanted to show that shift in my subjects. |

Maria Evelia Marmolejo at MAAS, New York | |
Performance: “May 1st, 1981 – February 1st, 2013” a performance by Maria Evelia Marmolejo on Feb 1st at 8pm. Saturday, Feb 2nd at 5pm, Maria Evelia Marmolejo will be in conversation with curator Cecilia Fajardo-Hill at MAAS Talks. MAAS | 36-01 36AVE, Long Island City, NY 11106 Maria Evelia Marmolejo, one of the most radical performance artists to emerge in the 1980s in Latin America, is returning, after many years of silence, to the public arena with the performance “May 1st, 1981 – February 1st, 2013”. The piece was originally conceived in 1981 under the title “Mayo 1981”, but the performance never took place. For the first time after more than 30 years, Marmolejo is performing the piece adding a new element - the present time. The artist is using the space to connect her personal experience of a violent, chaotic past to a present time marked by great technological advances, but where the dynamics of social violence remain or have worsened.

Wendy Wischer at Bass Museum of the Art, Miami Beach, FL |
Wendy Wischer at UNNATURAL, a group exhibition curated by Tami Katz-Freiman and organized by Bass Museum of Art Miami Beach, Fla. (July 2012) — The concept of nature has acquired a new relevance in the hyper-technological age, leading many artists to reflect on artificial environments, where one is unable to trust what is real and what is not. A significant number of artists today challenge the gap between traditional perceptions of “nature” and “culture.” In many cases, they introduce new understandings of the sublime that replace its Romantic and the related sense of awe with a diverse range of critical, political and poetic approaches. |
