PERFORMANCE “LAMENTO KAYAPÓ” + CONVERSA COM ARTISTAS EM RESIDÊNCIA

Terça, 22.08.2017
Arte e Ativismo na América Latina – ano II (2017)

Dando sequência às ações e atividades do ARTE E ATIVISMO NA AMÉRICA LATINA, um projeto da Despina realizado em parceria com a organização holandesa Prince Claus Fund, convidamos todxs para uma conversa com os artistas em residência selecionados para a edição deste ano – Carlos Martiel, Cristiano Lenhardt e Mariela Scafati. Antes da conversa, será apresentada pela primeira vez ao público a performance “Lamento Kayapó”, concebida pelo artista cubano Carlos Martiel.

Sobre “Lamento Kayapó”

Esta performance, que é parte do processo de pesquisa de residência do artista cubano Carlos Martiel na Despina -, procura refletir sobre a violência a que têm sido historicamente submetidas as populações indígenas no Brasil. Também lança luz a respeito das formas de resistência praticadas por essas mesmas populações – especialmente os Kayapós – para preservar seus costumes, demarcar seu território e para combater pacificamente as ameaças dos ruralistas e das indústrias mineradora e madeireira.

Over the last century, technologies, economies, societies, and political systems have been transformed, constituting a revised yet always shifting cultural landscape. In order to keep up, we constantly search for new feeling by way of the next lifestyle app, the next detox, the next transformative spirit journey to calm the nerves. Low-Grade Euphoria highlights the work of artists who respond to these shifts in the cultural landscape and suggest sensory experiences to guide us through them. It is a simultaneously frantic and subdued search for the traces of joy that enable and perpetuate social life today. With the help of performances, video, sound, and installation works, the exhibition rushes forward, toward new feelings and temporary joys, happily, in a daze.

Curated by: Sanna Almajedi, Valerie Amend, Patrick Jaojoco, Rebecca Nahom, Ikechukwu Onyewuenyi, Vera Petukhova, Jovanna Venegas, under the leadership of Mark Beasley.

ARTIST FEATURE & INTERVIEW WITH CARLOS MARTIEL

This year performance art pervaded Miami Art Week 2015 (for better and for worse). Most notably at the non-traditional, multi-destination, Satellite Fair organized by Brian Wheatley and the curatorial project “Time Sensitive” curated by Jesús Fuenmayor at Pinta Miami. As you can imagine, the sheer density of events, shows and performances prohibited us (Alexandra Hammond + myself) from being able to view the full performance roster at either fair but we were determined to catch Carlos Martiel’s durational work at Pinta Miami. Martiel caught my attention last October for his durational performance, “Segregation” at Samson Projects (Boston) where he stood motionless between two layers of barbed wire. Upon entry, audience members were separated by country of origin and viewed the performance from opposing sides. Martiel notes on his website, “One of the entryways permitted the entrance of U.S. born whites and Europeans. The other, permitted the entrance of blacks, latinos, asians, and middle easterners, as well as any individual who was not European or U.S. born white. People were not allowed to mix for the duration.”
