That Pink Thing: Langarita & Navarro / Jerónimo Hagerman

IVAM ProduceIVAM Centre Julio González

THAT PINK THING is a temporary intervention made on the IVAM’s façade by the artist Jerónimo Hagerman (Mexico City, 1967) and the architects María Langarita (Calatorao, 1979) and Víctor Navarro (Madrid, 1979). Their intention is to reveal an IVAM parallel to the one that was designed on the basis of the modern logic of what is hard and solid, and to materialise a space that provides a response to contemporary concerns about energy, the ecosystem, politics, the public sphere and sensibility.

Unlike the existing construction, the materiality of That Pink Thing will be organic, soft, flexible, moist, porous and living. Thus the torrid sensation felt when crossing the terrace that leads to the entrance to the museum will be replaced by a refreshing experience that invites us to linger a little longer in the area that will be created. The perception of the terrace as a place of transit will change and it will be transformed into an exterior room in which other museum activities can take place, sheltered from the severity of the summer.

Ignacio Pinazo (Valencia, 1849 – Godella, 1916) opened up a new field for the treatment of naturalism, light and investigation. With his agile touches and brushstrokes that transmitted reality in motion he defined a personal style characterised by free forms and a defence of art that championed experience and interpretation based on an unfinished appearance.

On this path towards a particular realism that announced the independence of art and the overcoming of academic stereotypes, visual expression followed the direction indicated by the defenders of a modern sensibility, such as the poet Charles Baudelaire, who asserted the value of “the transient, the fleeting”, avoiding existing forms. The spirit of modernity demanded a leap towards the future that was expressed in a quest for innovation and an aspiration for independence from the institutions and accepted aesthetic values. The desire to represent the world required a search for new paths in artistic practice.

Ignacio Pinazo’s work interprets this new order in exemplary fashion, incorporating new techniques and themes and acquiring a progressive dynamism that gives him a privileged place in the development of realist painting and the study of light and movement. This new presentation of the works that the IVAM possesses emphasises this change in sensibility, focusing on the possibilities presented by Pinazo, who succeeded in going beyond academic tradition and finding a reconciliation with the thinking and discoveries of his time.

Elisa

IVAM ProduceLibraryIVAM Centre Julio González

ELISA is presented as a detection device from the relationship between “antigen” and “antibody”. An exhibition time in which to carry out tests to detect, mediate and archive the impacts that HIV has caused on the bodies of men who have sex with men. This device, which is part of the investigation Effect of a force applied abruptly, allows to abandon the opaque research techniques showing the processes, visualizing phases and data of the investigation. In addition, ELISA generates a space in which to carry out actions through proposing agents, flow communities, co-payments, claims, circumstances, estrangements and links, in order to continue constituting the Archive, object and practice of this research.

The conference “Resistance from the Queer South” wants to be both an occasion for historical reflection and research and a space for methodological experimentation. While we are focused on the production of “hard” knowledge about the queer 1970s in Spain, we welcome—encourage, in fact!—alternative research methodologies and styles of presentation.

The Conference is part of the activities of the Collaborative Research Project CRUSEV-“Cruising the 1970s: Unearthing Pre-HIV / AIDS Queer Sexual Cultures”, leadered by Glyn Davis (University of Edinburgh) and funded by the Research and Innovation Program Horizon 2020-Humanities in the European Research Area (HERA), Grant no. 649307. The Conference is coordinated by the University of Murcia in collaboration with the Intitut Valencià d’Art Modern (IVAM), de Valencia.

CRUSEV partner universities: University of Edinburgh (Project Leader), Humboldt Universität, Universidad de Varsovia, Universidad de Murcia, University of Newcastle, Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, Universidad de Valencia, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha, Oxford-Brookes University.

Lecture “El futuro, frustrado: Perspectivas sobre la infancia queer” by Alberto Mira, organized by the Chair of Artistic Studies. 20th / 21st centuries

Alberto Mira

Born in Alzira (Valencia) I studied English and Spanish Philology at the University of Valencia. Worked on an MA on gay theatre which sparked an interest on gay history and queer aesthetics and was followed up by a PhD dissertation on the queer aspects of the theatrical voices of Tennessee Williams and Joe Orton.

Spent two years as language assistant at Oxford University (Taylor Institution, 1989 – 1991) and a year as lecturer at Universitat Jaume I (1991 – 1992) in Castelló (Spain).  In 1993 I returned to the United Kingdom where I have held a number of posts: between 1992 and 1995, I lectured in Spanish film, language and literature at Oxford University, in 1995 my first full time lecturing position at Middlesex University, where I taught several courses on language, literature and translation. In 1997 I became Queen Sofia Research Fellow at Exeter College, Oxford. In October 1999 I started my current job as a Reader at Oxford Brookes University.

I started at the Spanish department, and then was transferred to Film Studies in 2005. I was awarded sabbatical leave with the support of AHRC grants in 2002 and 2006, which allowed me two write my main monographs on gay cultures in Spain and on queer cinema. Since 2003 I published fiction, translation, academic and reference volumes, as well as articles on authors such as Terenci Moix, Pedro Almodóvar, Eduardo Mendicutti, Iván Zulueta, Mario Casas, Eduardo Blanco Amor, Manuel Puig, Federico García Lorca and other authors. Currently I am a member of the HERA funded project Crusev (“Cruising the Seventies”) and am preparing projects on pop musicals, and queer boyhoods.

The life in images of contemporary culture outruns the (material and immaterial) traditional spaces in which they were entrapped in the past, even the recent past. Their genres and registers, their ambits of circulation, their ceaseless migrations give the impression of offering a previously unknown experience of the real at the same time as, in an apparent paradox, they display a not in the least feigned technological pride.

Nevertheless, however much studies of the History of Art, Fine Arts, Journalism and Audiovisual Communication have attempted to adapt to the demands of this state of affairs, the lability of the borders between creation and reflection, technology and art, the media and the collective imaginary, among others, requires more ductile ambits of reflection and debate than those to be found in university studies and traditional research. On the other hand, unlike classical philology, palaeography, the exegesis of written texts and the image still presents an imbalance between its (emotional, conceptual, political, memory-based) impact and the instruments provided to analyse it.

The aim of Cátedra Estudios Artísticos, arising from the collaboration between the University of Valencia, the Polytechnic University of Valencia and the IVAM, will consist in encouraging this reflection about the life of images both in the world of art and in social life, including imaginary. It will do so broadmindedly, avoiding academic, artistic or technological restrictions, but, nevertheless, thriving on and taking advantage of all the academic, museum-based and institutional aids at its disposal. For that reason, the fact that it is held at the IVAM is propitious because it can enrich its activities with the reflection about exhibitions, installations or lectures, and also the series of projections.
