Espacio Mínimo Gallery Showcases All of Us Have the Right to Be Honest Project within the a3bandas’s Program

By means of a tour through specific movie and architectural productions, we propose a reflection on certain “regenerative ideology” that is accountable for the generation of heroic and eccentric spaces, lacking of apparent usefulness, which go beyond the “laissez faire” of the late capitalism.

 

This “regenerative ideology” proves the failure of a fragmented spatial-ness whose horizon targets the development of ranked geographies that facilitate the processes of ideological indoctrination.

 

This show reviews researches conducted in Mexico, Guatemala and Peru, which – through the use of an apparent formal linearity – questions the systems applied by certain politic-social systems to construct a fragmented spatial-ness that generates a homogeneous social tissue.

 

The display is made up of the work of five creators that invite us to reflect on gestures whose interpretation does not depend on logic – retaking features of Gianni Vattino’s weak thought “In the presence of a strict and univocal logic, the interpretation is to play the leading role; in the presence of a monolithic and vertical policy, is important support transversal social movements”.

 

These gestures specifically use certain ranked linearity, at ideological and formal levels, to question it and open new processes to construct differenced identities.

Each of these works, and documentation, immersed in the rhythm of the exhibition, triggers a double interpretative tension. On the one hand, it proves the “failure” of the fragmented spatial-ness away from the integrating and flexible thinking (Ricardo Lagos in “Toward a third Latin American way”). On the other hand, this failure opens new spaces characterized by their eccentricity, heroism and apparent uselessness; which bring about unique and non-transferable processes of social construction. Just as master Efraín Recinos used to point out: the only way to construct is Guatemalanly.
