Opening Friday 11 March 201, 6-8pm
This show presents an
object oriented/externalist practice in which the object is conceived as
correlated with a field of external relations curatorial practices are part of.
The externalist
perspective based in process philosophy has split away from the assumption the
object preexists its practical external relationships. But such a switch
implies that the problem before being formal needs first to account for a
paradigmatic background and data-mapping guiding observation. A new way of
looking at a common form replaces the ability form has in providing a base for
its own renewal.
The furtherance of
radical abstract painting's object-tendency by bracketing the object and
suspending its internality up to a shift point is a methodological condition
for observing an external field of reciprocal causation the object
instantaneously coexists with and for unfolding it along different timelines. A
virtual (nonetheless real) field that is to the object what mind is to
consciousness in perceiving that object.
Considering both the
object and its external field as two locally exclusive but complementary
dimensions of a same work, the structural division between art and the
curatorial becomes a means for their unification.
