Performance | Negro (Negro Live set) y Rossa (RSRJ RJRS)


Activities

In the framework of the exhibition Ensayos sobre lo cutre. Lecturas del archivo Miguel Benlloch (Essays on seediness. Readings from the Miguel Benlloch archive) exhibition and the programming around the Day of Dance, IVAM presents the performance Negro (Negro Live set) y Rossa (RSRJ RJRS) by María Salgado and Fran MM Cabeza de Vaca.

Both pieces explore moments of subjective and collective disobedience, not through speech, but through aesthetic materiality of some audios and some texts. Negro (Negro Live set) talks about desire as a driving force from poems with luxurious language, snippets of a political manifesto with the form of a poem, putting videoclips into words and extreme lyrical loops; while Rossa (RSRJ RJRS) akes binary classifications of gender and identity to the extreme to dissolve them and rave about them using a combinatorial analysis (Gertrude Stein and Steve Reich).
