We propose a walk around the city of Valencia in which we will activate a selection of places recorded in the works of Pinazo, which coincide with the personal geography of LUCE.

  • Start: 10.30 at the Torres de Serranos (Serranos Towers)
  • Approximate duration: 2 1/2 hours.

Shared mapping is set out as a triptych or activity in three parts and with three protagonists: LUCE, Pinazo and the city of Valencia. It unfolds through three walks where we reflect on the city and its role in generating creative impulses. At the same time, during the tours, we will discover the city like a vehicle between history and the people that live in it, visiting the common places where LUCE’s eyes meet the echoes of what Pinazo saw with his.

After the first act that took place on July 10, in this second one, we propose walking together around Valencia’s everyday surroundings, a walk that will rediscover and redefine parts of the ‘Ciutat Vella’ or old town. Through curiosity and play, we will visit places that were explored – and are still explored today- by both artists, cancelling out the idea of time to alter the layers and strata of urban locations in continuous transformation. An activity that invites us to be part of the public space through inherited, experienced and planned group experiences.

*This activity is the second of a series of three different walks proposed by LUCE and Eva Bravo. Until September 11, the program also includes the Open Studio in IVAM’s Lab2, which has been turned into a space to produce, create, show and share the different lines of action and research that link LUCE to the city of Valencia.

LUCE (Valencia, 1989), through her artistic practice, investigates the associations generated between art and the surroundings. She encourages communication with the city to understand how it works and how we relate to it.

Eva Bravo (Valencia, 1974) combines archaeology with heritage management, teaching, cultural mediation and participation in research projects.

IVAM Centre Julio González

Free entry until filled to capacity

Open Call open until July 15.

Friday October 21, 2022 will see the start of the third edition of the Recreo Valencia Art Book Fair with the collaboration of the IVAM Centre Julio González, which has become the new location for the fair.

Almost sixty local, national and international exhibitors will make up the select presence of publishers, groups, magazines, fairs, universities and self-published projects that will make this edition an unforgettable event.

The fair aims to establish a space for exchange, production and representation, taking part in Valencia’s cultural revitalization and supporting the development of an international network of creative agents. Recreo seeks to create an open and collaborative space which enables emerging and established creators in the field of publications and visual arts to be represented and seen.

In addition to the vast array of participants, the fair is complemented by a parallel program of activities, a series of conferences, presentations, exhibitions and workshops that will be announced at the beginning of September. After the success of the first two editions, a wide variety of independent publishers and artists will come together from October 21 to 23 at Recreo, an essential date for your diary if you love books and publishing.

Recreo is an initiative by Handshake (Rubén Montesinos and Jaime Sebastián) and Santanasantana (Aythami Castellano and Iván Santana). Organizers are hoping to offer a young alternative in the context of book fairs and printed art, and cover the wide spectrum that exists in the landscape of printed publications, also attracting international talent at the same time.

/Empty/Hands Concert, with Luis Azcona

Sunday September 18, 12.00 / 17.30.

IVAM is taking part in the 44th edition of the Ensems Festival, organized by the Valencian Institute of Culture, presenting the /EMPTY/HANDS concert with Luis Azcona

The concert and program presented at the Ensems Festival 2022 involves the presentation of the final version of the /EMPTY/HANDS project, which started in the strict lockdown of 2020 with the Mani.Mono, by Pierluigi Billone, and which awakened the interest of musician Luis Azcona “because of the physical manipulation of sound and the poetic-choreographic play of hands”.

The commissioning of the pieces by Alberto Bernal and Helena Cánovas throughout 2021 takes shape and makes sense today thanks to the support of the festival in commissioning the first piece of the program.

A chameleonic piece which adapts to the circumstances of each of the spaces in which it is scheduled thanks to the use of original video creations that also serve as audiovisual installations between works, showing the conceptual unity of the concert.

Program
Ensems 2022 première, result of the Valencian Institute of Culture’s commission with Helena Cánovas (Tona, Barcelona, 1994)
Mani.Mono (2007) Pierluigi Billone (Italy, 1960). 22 min.
(Neo)liberal sytems #4: Entertainment (2021) Alberto Bernal (Madrid, 1978)

Luis Azcona is one of the youngest percussionists and most committed to newly created music. Proof of this is his close collaboration with composers such as Alberto Bernal, Wojtek Blecharz, Yiran Zhao, Michael Maierhof, Yesid Fonseca or Arturo Corrales. He has also premièred works by Voro Garcia, Marina Picaporte, Ch. Spitzenstaetter, Wataru Mukai, Gemma Ragués and David Julián Carrillo. In his /Empty/Hands he delves into the physical approach to the creation of sound, debuting pieces by Helena Cánovas (commissioned by the Valencian Institute of Culture) and Alberto Bernal.

The exhibition Far from the void. ZERO and postwar art in Europe offers a review of the groups of artists that overcame the post-war aesthetic and the existential atmosphere by rejecting expressionist painting, materic gestural abstraction and the informalism that dominated the art world after the Second World War. The contributions of the young artists gathered together in the exhibition were central to the “big bang” of art in the decade of the 1960s. Reflecting on ZERO and the contemporary groups that shared this spirit and formed a dense network of contacts, exhibitions, publications and events (among others, Azimut, Nul, Gruppo T, Gruppo N, Equipo 57, Nove Tendencije), the exhibition displays “congregations” of artists who operated without a unified belief or intellectual leader, but who shared the ambition of “starting from zero” for a new way of making and enjoying art., The structure of the exhibition does not have an encyclopaedic outlook, but gathers the most relevant moments of this brief history, set between 1957 and 1966, during which time there is a cartography of the old continent, beyond the big cities, in the provinces of Central Europe.

The exhibition gathers together over one hundred works from more than thirty artists (Mack, Piene, Uecker, Manzoni, Castellani, Klein, Tinguely, Fontana, Dadamaino, Grazia Varisco, Nanda Vigo, Megert, Peeters, Haacke, Verheyen, Schoonhoven, Daniel Spoerri, and many others), as well as numerous documents and archives. The exhibition catalogue has been conceived as a compilation of original sources (texts from the artists, exhibits, etc.), in dialogue with the images of the exhibited works and a selection of the most relevant documents.

The exhibition renews the interest of IVAM- Julio González Centre for the critical re-reading of the artists who, in recent history, have contributed to making art extend the boundaries of perception and awareness.

The exhibition Far from the Void. ZERO and Postwar Art in Europe has been organised with the inestimable and generous co-operation, both scientific and patrimonial, of the ZERO Foundation in Düsseldorf.

We would also like to thank a large number of people and public and private institutions for their assistance:
The artists: Grazia Varisco, Heinz Mack and Christian Megert.

The lenders of the works in the exhibition: Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid; Museum Kunst Palast Düsseldorf; Stedelijk Museum and Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam; Museum Tinguely, Basle; MuHKA-Centrum Kunstarchieven Vlaanderen, Antwerp; Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo and Filmoteca de Andalucía, Seville; Museum Morsbroich, Leverkusen; Stiftung Kunstfonds, Cologne; ZERO Foundation, Düsseldorf; Fondazione Piero Manzoni, Fondazione Enrico Castellani, Archivio Nanda Vigo, Archivio Varisco, Milan; The Mayor Gallery, London; Galleria Allegra Ravizza, Galleria A Arte Invernizzi, and Marco Meneguzzo, Milan.

Dialogue with Pinazo in the public space

 
 
IVAM LabIVAM Centre Julio González

01 jul. 2022 – 11 sep. 2022

IVAM Centre Julio González

In light of the exhibition Pinazo in the public space, we have invited the artist LUCE to speak about Pinazo’s art and the city itself. The result is an Open Studio, as well as a series of guided walks that will invite us to look at the ordinary in a whole new way.

‘My approach is based on moving without haste, the privilege of stopping when something interests me, and not having to worry about being late anywhere. Last summer, I found an abandoned industrial warehouse and decided to stay there, turning that outdoor space into my summer studio.

The invitation of IVAM, in the context of the exhibition Pinazo in the public space, has allowed me to move my studio to one of their rooms. For a time, it will be transformed into my Open Studio: a space to produce, create, show, and share the different lines of action and investigation that link me to the city of Valencia and the meaning and use of its spaces.

During these months, the room will become a space where you can find me working and conversing. At the same time, it will be where I show the artwork I have created from discovering, playing and resignifying elements found in the city and its surroundings: abandoned awnings, whitewashed footballs, cans of paint with colour samples… Many of them are the result of processes started a few years ago that I continue to develop. Others are produced specifically to be incorporated into the walks through the city, which we can do from July.

From the dialogue with Ignacio Pinazo’s exhibition, this project aims to generate echoes, connections, and extensions of his artwork through my artistic practices in the public space. And to reflect, through shared urban geographies, on the possibility of understanding and relating to the city differently.’

BIO:

The artwork of LUCE (Valencia, Spain, 1989) is linked to the city and typography. It investigates the connections that are generated between art and the environment, encourages communication with the city, and invites us to explore it to understand how it works and the way we relate to it. His work is based on experience and translates into subtle interventions in urban furniture and artwork created from objects he found wandering the city. The duality between graffiti and writing extends throughout his work to give rise to a body of art in which ideas are communicated through words, which in turn generate stories that link elements such as a street with a name – often his own – or an object with a specific temporality. LUCE resignifies objects through actions, usually documented with photographs, and resorts to repetition so that his practice becomes recognizable and encourages the development of new discourse.

Planet noise: Sound fictions laboratory

From 13 to 16 years

 
 
Art i ContextEducationalIVAM Centre Julio González

11 jul. 2022 – 15 jul. 2022

IVAM Centre Julio González

PRE-REGISTRATION. LIMITED CAPACITY

PLANET NOISE: Sound fictions laboratory falls within the realm of the Art and Context Programme. Sound is one of the key and transversal aspects of research by the programme’s artists, hence the proposal of the PLANET NOISE workshop.

Through listening and experimenting with sound, in this workshop we will think about and activate sounds as a tool to understand and comprehend our surroundings. We will start from the idea and research covered by the programme’s artists in their production, in addition to the tools belonging to contemporary artistic creation. Through various activities and workshops, we will cover the active listening of space, of our body and other people, we will create and invent animal and machine sounds, and we will build soundscapes of our context.

For one week, participants will build a collaborative account and sound journey that activates and considers the work of the programme’s artists, trying to imagine and accompany the future exhibition and generating a record of the immediate context of the participants.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

  • Aimed at: Teenagers aged from 13 to 16 years. No pre-requisites to be able to take part
  • Sessions: 5, from Monday to Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

MEDIATION:

The workshop will be led by Elena Sanmartín Hernández, with the support in mediation of Alejandro Ocaña and the collaboration of Patricia Ferragaud in sound production.

Elena Sanmartín Hernández situates her work in the bisector between cultural management, artistic mediation and education. She is interested in exploring ways of translating and transferring the methods of contemporary artistic creation into useful tools for the understanding and resolution of contemporary problems and challenges. She understands the processes of mediation, education and cultural management as creative, collaborative and supportive spaces which help processes and artistic creation to permeate other bodies and spaces, and vice versa. She graduated in Fine Arts from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, and has completed the PERMEA masters: Education and Mediation through Art by the Consorci de Museus de la Comunitat Valenciana and the University of Valencia. She also completed the University Masters in History of Contemporary Art and Visual Culture from the Complutense University of Madrid and the Reina Sofia National Art Museum.

Alejandro Ocaña is an artist and educator living in Valencia. His projects are based on group events and parties, in addition to other leisure-related situations. He creates a production whose main aim is the participation of others and the use of humour, giving way to a succession of group activities that aim to be considered as “silliness” and/or “nonsense”. Alejandro Ocaña graduated in Fine Arts from the Polytechnic University of Valencia and has completed the PERMEA masters: Education and Mediation through Art by the Consorci de Museus de la Comunitat Valenciana and the University of Valencia.

Patricia Ferragud Noguerón is a graduate of Architecture from the ETSA of Valencia, she graduated with honours from the Masters in City and Urbanism from the UOC and in piano studies from the Professional Conservatory of Music of Valencia.

PLANETA RANDOM: The Played fictions laboratory falls within the realm of the Art and Context Programme and emerges from the research of artists that form part of the programme, some of them permeated by fiction or fantasy.

Through play and the digital image, in this workshop we will consider the possibilities of fiction and fantasy to create thought and imagine other possible worlds. Through various activities, we will address some of the themes that permeate the work of the artists from the programme, where we will support each other to build our own fiction.

For one week, the participants will design and build an environment, a community and a series of their own characters from activities that will enable us to think and collaboratively build the fiction we want to inhabit and play. This fiction will also help us to think about our reality, the immediate context and the problems that cut through it.

6 p.m.

Making books another way vs. another way of making books is an interactive workshop where we will experiment with codes from the edition to collectively create a publication collating the experiences of the Mutant Reading Group.

The workshop will revolve around the creative possibilities of the book, the limits of its format in relation to its contents, the opening up of its textual nature, the hierarchies of its structure, resuming some of the convergences started in the 1960s and 1970s with regard to the emergence of the artist’s book in artistic discourse.

Wednesday 6 July 2022. 18 hrs.

The dialog between the LUCE workshop and the Pinazo exhibition in the public space will be summarized on 6 July with a specific double-purpose activity, which is linear in space and intertwined in time. It will begin in room G6 and finish in Laboratory 2. During the visit the public will be guided through dialog and, simultaneously, with an ephemeral intervention on the work by LUCE.

The activity will combine the creation of reflections arising from the analogies, homologies, contrasts, inspirations and feedback that are picked up on by both authors, through the production of visual manifestations of elements of Pinazo’s exhibition incorporated into LUCE’s material. The faint ghosts of Pinazo’s experiences in their own absolute present time will be invoked in order to recover the vestiges of public space which we have today and which LUCE promotes as engines of nostalgia and generators of new political and poetic collective perceptions.

The activity has been designed by and will be run by the artist, LUCE and Vicente Pla, curator of the inazo exhibition in the public space.

A song is always developed in a limited amount of time, it has a beginning and an end. In a song, music takes on a certain tone of urgency, a need to unleash all of its potential in the few minutes it lasts for.

In this performance, we play with repetition and duration. Our understanding of time depends on us understanding periodicity. Things come in cycles. A concert of just one song. A song that lasts an entire concert because it turns on itself to experience a continuous sound time and time again, and again, and again..

This performance is inspired by the piece “H” by Rosanayaris and Taller Placer.
