Rethink Everything
Rolf Art is pleased to announce the set up & exhibition display at the gallery of the current online exhibition, Rethink Everything, under the research project and curatorial proposal of Andrea Giunta, which reflects on the current context of the Covid-19 pandemic and social, preventive and mandatory isolation; through a careful selection of works of significant historical relevance by more than 20 outstanding artists from Latin America and the Caribbean.
In a time of isolation that forces us to remain within our homes, the domestic associated with the feminine, is activated as a space that delimits a new order and administration of time, of resources, of affections, of a new political economy of life; iways of living in which human relations are reformulated in the private and public spheres. Faced with models and systems promoted by patriarchal states, new dynamics and strategies are opening up in the order of the sensible.鈥淩ethink everything invites us to think from an experience that intervenes on the affections and on the desire for a new distribution of human relations, symbolic relations, relations with animals and nature. [鈥 To review the excluded and the hidden, the relationships with life, with absence, with the closeness and distance of affections with the new forms of daily life and the State. [鈥 In this scenario feminism emerges to observe global change, contemporary notions of community, the crisis of anthropocentric models and of human exceptionalism. Feminism understood as the articulator of new hermeneutical tools鈥.
Under this premise, 鈥渆ach object, each photograph, each film proposed in this exhibition, generates a magnetized field that comes into friction with that which it approaches, producing areas of contact between the works that expand before the urgent questions of the present. In light of the perception of emptiness left by a stopped world, and the house as a renewed space of experiences, works that were thought at different times, in other contexts, take on new meanings 鈥 It is about delving and stirring in the archives what we did not see, approaching them from new contexts and different inquiries, discovering latent meanings, warnings, intermittent dialogues鈥 they are all materials from which to think what other forms of the world are possible鈥
