White Horse : Postfordist Cacophonies

LARS BRÄNNEGÅRD

After joining the 1st of May manifestation at Kungsträgården, I went out to take a walk at the sunny side of the city. The park’s cafe was full of people that got the same goddamned idea as me and swarmed like pigeons while the Sven-Harrys Museum pointed Carl Fredrik Reutersward’s knotted cannon gun at us. […]

GIANFRANCO FOSCHINO

Become immersed into the rush of the days not even being aware of it. Have the notion of an escape desire through intersected ducts. Want to go faster than time when it isn’t even finished (started) to conciliate it with the bodies and the world. The obsession to find this time in permanent escape has […]

I couldn’t care less

CARLA GARLASCHI & JUAN CASTILLO

We had secretly left on a bike. I’d baked honey biscuits covered in lemon glaze, quite a Nordic flavor to have in the middle of the Atacama Desert. I put on some hot pants that day, and a light blue shirt I borrowed from Andrea. During those days I had let my hair grow long […]

Double Headed SOUTH: Bicephalous

JAVIER TAPIA Y PETER BONDE

The classic discussion of form versus content seems senseless in a time were any kind of limit, or even, any kind of definition is diffuse and malleable. It’s true that dialogues and their different forms are transiting faster than ever, and it’s because of this that our postmodern spirits may attribute to them any sense that […]

Being so beautiful (does not) give you the right to destroy

JAVIER GONZALEZ PESCE

Maybe it is that our exquisite vulnerability wants to stay always in disguise; not wanting to acknowledge the feelings or ideas that make our blood run. Being always ready to hide under a much studied rationality. In one of his last works, Javier Gonzalez Pesce divests from the desire of disguising vulnerability towards love, and […]

JAVIER TORO BLUM

Ingmar Bergman’s “The Seventh Seal” tells us about the insatiable search of Block, to discover through knowledge, the mystery behind life. He needs to undress this secret and look right into his face so he can live a quiet life, or even an early death. For this purpose, he maintains a conversation with Death during […]

Visits | Land Without Bread

NICOLÁS FRANCO

Once you enter Nicolas Franco’s “Land Without Bread”, it becomes hard to think objectively. Not because the exhibition is held at CCE (Spain Cultural Centre), which presents by itself a modernist architectural allure; not because the show is treated in a very clean, almost cold way in terms of aesthetic, easing the path through it. […]

how to BE someone

CARLA GARLASCHI

The hilarious postmodern success that glorifies the egos seems to be posible to achieve. Trace a plan, each on its on way. How to be Someone, is the essay that the artist Carla Garlaschi chose for Rotunda Magazine
