NODO. Artist Program in Quito-Ecuador. Artist Residency/ Scholarship.
February - December 2017.https://nolugar.org/2017/03/03/portafolios-recorrido-artistas-nodo/
No Lugar – Arte Contemporáneo tiene el agrado de invitar a la presentación de portafolios y recorrido de la Casa Nodo con los artistas participantes en el programa, los esperamos este viernes 10 de marzo desde las 18h00 en la casa Nodo, ubicada en la calle Juan Larrea N15-53 y Buenos Aires, barrio América.
Nodo es el programa para artistas de No Lugar, que brinda una casa para artistas interesados en participar en una experiencia intensa de producción, discusión y formación. Los nueve artistas participantes, fueron elegidos por un comité de selección conformado por Belén Santillán (investigadora), Ana María Garzón (curadora) y el equipo de No Lugar.
Los artistas de Nodo se tomarán las casa por un periodo de nueve meses, haciendo de este lugar un taller de producción y de exhibición de sus procesos artísticos. Los tutores invitados -artistas, curadores y teóricos de destacada trayectoria, tanto internacionales como locales- realizarán visitas al estudio de cada participante. Este programa, centrado en la práctica de ‘taller de artista’, estará complementado por conferencias, laboratorios, visitas de exposiciones y un seminario de lectura estructurado en torno a textos claves del arte contemporáneo. En el mes de agosto realizaremos el simposio curatorial ‘Estrategias en uso’ con curadores internacionales invitados y en diciembre el programa se cierra con una exposición en Más Arte Galería Taller.

Curated by Magali Avezou, Marcello Simeone and Sayako Sugawara.
26 Caledonian Road is an exhibition of site-specific works to be held in a former deli, K.C. Continental Stores, temporarily renamed Geddes Gallery, in the heart of King’s Cross. This inspiring though the unconventional site for an exhibition, now awaiting a new life after its closure, stands out today with its old-fashioned interior, wallpapers, and the unique combination of public and private areas. The architectural nature of the space and its history invite reflection on heritage, memory, and how sculptural bodies (artworks) respond to, and dwell in, domestic spaces.
By inviting the creation of new works for a specific location, the project also aims at exploring their modes of production, encouraging reflection on the artists’ creative process, the role of external projects in their work, and how these are articulated within their usual practice.
The exhibition features mysterious and anonymous portraits of the former inhabitants and owners of the space; distorted and expanded films aimed at re-activating the site ‘about to disappear’; parmesan cheese wrapped in a photogravure on greaseproof paper, and even a ‘Jungian’ cleansing ritual on the opening day to mark the transition from ́home ́ to ́art space’.
The exhibition is curated by the LCC MA Photography Alumni Group and includes works from current students, alumni & staff. Funded by UAL Student Experience & Engagement Fund.
Events:
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, 4pm: curators’ exhibition tours Thursday, 6pm: performances by Ana Escobar and Jessica Potter Saturday: talks and performances facebook.com/geddesgallery/
