PROFANACIONES

by Oriol Sánchez

Profanations is a three-channel video work consisting in appropriation and reconstrucion of images and sequences of films by Jules Marey, Pudovkin, Kirsanoff, Eisenstein, Romero, Halperin, Kulechov… from which a series of little, miniature micro-stories have been created. These stories have been organized according to Campanas de Luz (Light Bells), a music composition by Joan Riera Robusté. Profanations emerges from an interest in exploring relashionships between sound and image with narratives and abstraction, playing with the (dis)articulation found in film narratives; creating a rupture within narrative and representation." (Oriol Sánchez)

TRAYECTO(S) 1 & 2 + 8.19MIN

by Isaac Gimeno


TRAYECTO 1.2, TRAYECTO(s)(2) and 8,19MIN are 3 video-installation works that look at different aspects of time and the so-called velocity phenomenon associated to new technologies and how they interfere in everyday life. "In these distances… there aren't destinies as which to arrive. They are the consequence of a videographic experimentation through velocity. Velocity is not a phenomenon, but a relationship between phenomena subject to the laws of relativity. In TRAYECTO(S), relativity is understood as a circular medium between object and subject, which is reflected in a perceptual setting created with a spinning video camera." (Isaac Gimeno)

ABISMO PROXIMO

by Reivaj Yudato

Abismo Próximo is a multi-channel video-installation work that explores notions of montage as incarnation and metamorphosis from a complex perspective that contemplates historical visual representation in Christian imagery, television and cinema. "This work demonstrates that the same principle applies in all television broadcasts, whether if it is a football match or war news. Both are simultaneously abysmal (distant) and close (visible)". (Celeste Araújo)

CINEMA…CORPUS VS CEREBRUM


Cinema…Corpus vs Cerebrum is an on-going expanded cinema project by Esperanza Collado consisting in a live film performance in collaboration with all artists and filmmakers present in Márgenes: Experimento y Praxis. CCC is a site-specific work; an arrangement of four concurrent 16mm/Super8 film projectors in the public space, opposite to Thisisnotashop. The intention is to create a dialogue between the internal and external boundaries of the gallery -and the periodical presence of the Luas (tram) interfering the projection beam-. A series of direct improvised manipulations during the projection event, -all celluloid used is found-footage-, will interact with live music by Irish composer Neil O'Connor aka Somadrone and his modular analogue synthesizers.



The Fog is coming…

19th-25th June

FOG – Marta Fernández Calvo

Opening and presentation:

Thursday 18th June, 7pm



The Fog is coming…

Fog is a participatory artistic intervention work intended to be developed in the landscape. The large fog banks that move across the landscape are the actual starting point of this project. The artist, Marta Fernández Calvo, has created a "portable fog kit" from different photographs of fog taken in Dolomitas (Italy). The "kit" will be presented to Dublin inhabitants at a meeting and presentation on the 18th of June at This is Not a Shop, in which people will be invited to book Fog for its installation during one day in whatever public space they require (btw June 19-26). All request forms to install Fog in the city will be used by the artist to construct a calendar containing the dates and locations of Fog in Dublin. This process will be shown daily in the gallery, which will become a documentation base of accumulative work generated by Fog.

Fog functions according to the temporal availability of the audience, and, as real fog, moves in the landscape, appearing and disappearing eventually. This work, therefore, will be shown exclusively if required directly by Dublin inhabitants.
