Claims days ago in The Parent Project Area is a talk that had the slogan the relationship between art and politics. Guests: Juan Carlos Romero, the performer Guadalupe Neves, Judith Villamayor belonging to the group Articultores, and Lux \u200b\u200bLindner, one of his colleagues who did know his surprise caused by his presence at that table when production art is not political. Or was, because we started a discussion in which criticism and art theory were not exempted. It turns out that Lindner came to inaugurate an exhibition at the Cultural Center Conti, recently opened to the public within the premises of the ESMA, and his confusion was considerable. " wanted to come here with a black eye, a black eye is the health of the nation!" bombed in one of his first interventions. His work there consisted of a panel perpendicular hanging from the ceiling, painted white and which highlight a range of character names that formed part of Argentina's history, names that the author hoped to generate some itching or discomfort to the guests at the banquet. " wanted someone asked me: why put those bastards in the play?" . But apparently all you got were cheers and pats on the shoulder, and his desire to be beaten by the public or any officer never came.
ensued Lux \u200b\u200bclaim growing intellectual deforestation, the lack of serious criticism and teaching to help guide the public in the proposals made by artists and in some cases are not readable at first sight. Nothing more, nothing less than the need for effective mediation and communication of the work. If found it wanted to fight there, because the two women present questioned his point of view. For both, working in a field more difficult to define with the old categories of art Lindner, the fact that they no longer had a potentate of the standing figure was a relief. Because, said Neves, who is the person who has the authority and power to put names to things and say what is good and what is not, in this case, much better than the artists are governed by their own rules (or lack thereof), before anyone comes to classify extrinsic. Villamayor also felt more comfortable in this situation because it is not necessary for any institution, critical media outlet legitimize their work, but it is she who is defined as an artist and self legitimate: "There is a problem of identity of the artist, has to be assumed as such, without waiting to be standing outside The only person who can be defined as an artist is the same person. And if the world were against, that's not a problem, all we have the world against it. " Romero quickly took aim at the abduction of wielding hippies that is fine, but "naive to think that everyone will get to live art. Must be regarded as a job he can get a way of life. If you are not within the artistic field, artist resources in your head or your friends . "
While Lindner was asking for someone who would act as the guidance from theory or in the works for an exhibition, the curator when the task is not clear or effective in this regard, what is power to it, also with interference of capitalism in all spheres, including in education, which leads us to organize conferences on Benjamin (the Coldplay of philosophy ") instead of studying or Argentine and Aníbal Ponce Monteagudo. Romero jumped neck saying "the work is discussed in the work, not to a book, you will not be traveling a sample reading a book "Lindner said to what is necessary to help contexts. "We should not treat people like an idiot not to steal the information."
Regarding this discussion, I adhere to this last statement, I believe the guardianship should provide elements to understand the linking of the proposed works to coincide with what he says Marta Dujovne about the objects speak for themselves only those that can be incorporated into a series of prior knowledge, the books may not be useful or comfortable when visiting a sample but later, when we help to decant all images incorporated into our mente. Además es difícil acceder a una obra tan hermética como la de Lindner contando sólo con la sensibilidad de espectadores primerizos. Habría que ver si acaso él también colabora en algún sentido para facilitar esta comunicación que reclama.
Ya era noche cerrada en Paternal, y Lux seguía pataleando contra el público de las exposiciones, los medios, los directores de museos: “Incluyo pruebas a ver si la gente está despierta, pero está roncando!” . No sé porqué, todos los presentes nos enderezamos precipitadamente en nuestros asientos.
