If you reported a few days ago Malaga exposure toys vanguards this post is to inform you of another exhibition, this time is the north. Exposure is Homo ludens. The artist in front of the game , introducing the Oteiza Museum, from November 11 until February 13, 2011.
The exhibition is a selection of 75 works (belonging to the sphere of poetry, painting, sculpture, music, theater ...) finding that game and art are closely related, being "the gaming experience a constant in most of the avant-garde of the twentieth century and a common component in the art of recent years ", says the Museum Oteiza in a press release.
This exhibition is divided into four areas, as explained in the website museum
The first part, Visual Poetics , analyzes the presence of language in the field of playfulness. The show opens with the book Stéphane Mallarmé "Un coup de dés n'abolirá Hassard pas le" (1897), the starting point of the transformation of the blank page in the composition of the poem, which gives Home to a more free to express ideas and feelings. His influence will be crucial to avant-garde artists like Kurt Schwitters and currents as Lettrism , concrete poetry or visual poetry, which are set in the seventies as a language most of the contemporary art and have important references as Felipe Boso, Carlos de la Rica, Eduardo Apraiz, the group Poetic Text, Jorge Oteiza, Joan Brossa, Ricardo Ugarte or Julia Otxoa.
The second part of the sample fragments reality, is constructed from the direct, intimate and, in many cases against the artist's spontaneous material. Small pieces of everyday life that take on shapes and unexpected situations as in the case of Angel Ferrant, Leandre Cristòfol or Lyonel Feininger, Joaquín Torres García, Pablo Picasso, Nicolas Lekuona, or Equipo Crónica. The gaming experience not only to reinvent the materials but to create new stories from the world of circus and theater as those offered by the figures of Ramón Acin, Fortunato Depero, Alexander Calder, Joan Miro, Luigi Veronesi, Isidro Ferrer, Pep Carrio Norman Mclaren or Carlos Pomeroon.
The metalúdica reference this tour refers to the creation as gambling, puzzles or puzzles, which are included in the third part of the exhibition titled Game (s) and displays pieces by Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray, Gerardo Delgado, George Brecht and Josef Hartwig. Pieces that combine the skill of the player and the plastic beauty of the game itself.
Finally, the end of exposure, critical Ludosofías , hosting an exhibition of recent works that make up his message from the game tool. In the contemporary scene, the game takes on a new dimension and fun, enjoyment or the banality give way to analysis and criticism. In some cases as "Soldats soldes" of Antoni Miralda, or "Lego Concentration Camp" by Zbigniew Libera, small plastic dolls become the historical memory of the horrific conflict. In other cases, as in the work of Angel Mateo Charris, its colorful compositions give insight into the world of politics and abuse of power. Critics also includes Joan Fontcuberta in his series Googglegramas "where Internet plays to discuss current issues such as terrorism. But if a trait characteristic of contemporary society is the loss of values \u200b\u200band personal identities. It is in this area that the use of play is particularly relevant, as the viewer ponders more depth to the work that allows you to interact. Juan Luis Moraza, Eugenio Ampudia, Rafael Bianchi and Diego del Pozo are authors who invited "to play." Work to certify the new role of contemporary art viewer, which runs a mere observer co-player of the game. Jorge Oteiza already wrote: Life is like the game.
