The exhibition THE ZERO AND THE ONE (0/1), reflects on imagination and the concepts of opposition, the arbitrariness of interpretation and on which, imagination focuses through the representation of reality or objects and not the thing itself.
About
The proposal - on the various disciplines of artists, addresses the human capacity to transpose the knowledge acquired through study and reflection on animal life, historical record and the conquest of science, as a driving channel before knowledge and experimentation, common denominators of society - objects, situations, scenarios and dialogues.In this exhibition, we propose a reflection on the human journey as an unfinished journey, as it is only concluded when thought materialises. History does not end while imagination is ahead of matter. Reason begins by the operation of adding, while in imagination the sum is already done: there is only one number, complete, total and this can begin to divide, to separate... when this operation begins in imagination, it is an individual operation and tends to be unrepeatable.
The exhibition THE ZERO AND THE ONE (0/1), reflects on imagination and the concepts of opposition, the arbitrariness of interpretation and on which, imagination focuses through the representation of reality or objects and not the thing itself. The variety of utterances, reproducing metaphors multiplying the possibilities of truth - a kind of momentary science.
The theme of the exhibition is based on a part of the book "Atlas of the body and the imagination" by Gonçalo M. Tavares.
The book crosses literature, thought and arts, passing through the image and themes such as identity, technology, bonds of death and love; city, rationality and madness, food and desire, etc. Hundreds of fragments that define an itinerary in the midst of the world's confusion.
