About
Society is structured through narratives, immaterial arguments as such, which are translated into ways of living, relationships, organizations and ideologies. We live inside these narratives.
The narratives of artistic works portray embodied forms of more or less implicit community arguments: as well as everyday objects, be it technological equipment, a television program or a brand that induces us to certain comportments and promote collective values, global visions of the world. The frontier between fiction and information - and which Liam Gillick questions in his works, redistributes the two notions from the concept of the social point of view, is revealed in multiple ways that point to a world aesthetic built on the study of information systems. ideological control.
In PRODUÇÃO (RE)PRODUÇÃO, Martim Brion does not expose a “happy end” of a process, but rather a production space where the visitor has the artist's tools for a free visual mixture, a research scenario in real time and (re)production, the observer builds the narrative to the rhythm of his look, and the image he projects in his subconscious.
Reproducing what has already been produced is an extraordinary task.
Not starting again from scratch, nor from the accumulated knowledge of an artistic language, but selecting and interpreting, serving and sharing. Martim Brion, through small sculptures on the wall and photographs of different formats - materials that remind us of conceptual art from the 60s, presents a deciphered narrative mobility, reinvented and with an inevitable alternative interpretation, as an unconscious that tries to escape from the fatality of history, an inversion of the collective discourse into a individual tool.
In this exhibition space, similar to a container of visual instruments, it is up to the spectator to create relationships with the world, and to materialize in one way or another the relationship with space, adding time.
