The new temporary exhibition Silent Genealogies. Caja Mediterráneo Collection opens at MACA, Museum of Contemporary Art in Alicante on Thursday, September 13 at 8 p.m. and will run until January 6, 2013. "Silent Genealogies" brings together a series of works by different artists that share a common creative process. A fragmented process, made in pieces, often asymmetrical and that reveals the structure of the work, always with an uncomfortable sense of nakedness or lack of protection. José Ramón Amondarain, Isidro Blasco, Txomín Badiola, Pello Irazu, Miquel Mont, Manu Muniategiandikoetxea and Daniel Verbis make up the selection of artists. A generation concerned with problems of space, volume and representation, united by an invisible thread of familiarity. Artists who, without establishing formal kinship in the manner of masters or disciples, seem to have certainly been looking at and looking at each other until forming a group that has renewed all pictorial and sculptural languages. More information in the complete note.
This exhibition brings together a selection of works that are part of this Mediterranean Foundation Collection deposited at the MACA. The exhibition brings together a series of works by different artists that share a common creative process. A fragmented process, made in pieces, often asymmetrical and that reveals the structure of the work, always with an uncomfortable sensation of nakedness or defenselessness.Artists who do not offer solutions but rather question, and convey to the viewer, the problems of a reality that has been taking shape in an increasingly complex and fragmentary way, where ideologies have lost their validity and social, political or aesthetic discourse has become incomplete, precarious and, in many cases, chaotic. All of this is evident in the works of art that are exhibited here.
