Descripción de la Exposición
POINTS OF CONTACT A set of three performances curated by Lara Salmon November 2, 6-10pm: Verónica Peña October 26, 8pm: laub October 19, 8pm: Oscar David Alvarez “At a time when the artist’s identity is one of the most important parts of the work, performance is doing what it always did best: including the artist definitively. We are not left to wonder with what authority the performer creates, but instead invited to discern various implications of their voice. Through performance we put actions into the world, placing ideas to linger within the minds of the audience. Performance holds a special potential for connection between creator and viewer—a connection that is fleeting in our smartphone-based society. When snapping, posting, scrolling, swiping or sending, it’s easy to not actually be part of what is in front of us.” (Lara Salmon) VERÓNICA PEÑA is an interdisciplinary artist and independent curator from Spain based in the United ... States. Her work explores the themes of absence, separation, and the search for harmony through Performance Art. Peña is interested in migration policies, cross-cultural dialogue, and women’s empowerment. Recent works include participatory performances that create shared moments amongst strangers. Peña has performed in various countries around Europe, Asia, and America. In the United States, her work has been featured at Times Square, Armory Show, NYU’s Hemispheric Institute, Queens Museum, School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Grace Exhibition Space, Triskelion Arts, Defibrillator Performance Art Gallery, Momenta Art Gallery, Gabarron Foundation, Dumbo Arts Festival, and Consulate General of Spain in New York, amongst others. She is a recipient of the Franklin Furnace Fund 2017-18. She has published “The Presence Of The Absent”, a thesis about her body of work. She was a visiting artist at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She curates “Collective Becoming,” an initiative to make cities a place less hostile. She is currently at work on her new project about freedom, fear, and resistance, “The Substance of Unity.” http://www.veronicapena.com OSCAR DAVID ALVAREZ was born in Manizales, Colombia in 1985, and raised in Los Angeles.
