Bajo el Sol Azul reúne una nueva serie de cianotipos, obras que Fabiola Menchelli comenzó durante su residencia en Casa Wabi, en Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, en 2015, y que finalizó durante su estancia como artista visitante en la Universidad de Cincinnati entre 2016 y 2017.

La práctica de Menchelli es fundamentalmente fotográfica, pero se enfrenta constantemente a los límites de la fotografía, generando diálogos inesperados con otras disciplinas artísticas. Bajo el Sol Azul revela la sutil revolución que se produce a través de la contemplación profunda.

Estos nuevos cianotipos toman como punto de partida el observatorio astronómico de Casa Wabi, creado por el arquitecto japonés Tadao Ando, y traducen sus curvas orgánicas en luminosas exposiciones azules, reconectando la estructura de concreto con el cielo que fue diseñado para observar.

In this polarizing election year, we are faced with many Divisions. Divisions among political beliefs—Democrats versus Republicans, of course—but also Divisions and sub-Divisions within the ideological hearts of the parties: outsiders versus the establishment, grass roots versus business class, idealists versus pragmatists, and so on. Additionally, Divisions between political and gendered identities: class, race, sexuality, citizenship, and access. You can’t use the bathroom here.

/////

We move within spatial, geographic and gerrymandered Divisions: supra-national agreements, alignments, and competitions; red states versus blue states; urban centers versus suburbs; gentrification versus preservation. Even the building of actual physical walls of Division is being debated. I will build a great wall – and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me.

////

Internal conflict. Divisions are also feeling torn between opposite decisions, to feel in disagreement or at odds with oneself. Morals and ethical beliefs are upheld, challenged, or trespassed. What happens at Skowhegan stays at Skowhegan.

///

Divisions need not be purely political or so conflicted. It can also be neutral, calculable: The exactitude of finding how many times one number can be divided by another. Or how Divisions and multiplications can move from a familiar picnic scene to a survey of the entire universe before contracting inwardly to reveal an inner cellular and molecular world. Charles and Ray Eames film, “Powers of Ten”.

//

Further on this molecular level, Divisions can relate to the splitting of a cell, or mitosis. One made into multiple as a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells. The human body experiences 10 quadrillion cellular divisions within a lifetime.

/

Divisions are also the taxonomic categorizations for levels of classifications: departments, branches, wings, sectors, or subsections. They can be either narrow or broad in scope. The Skowhegan Alliance is pleased to present DIVISIONS. Comprised of 17 Skowhegan alumni, which can be divided into the following years of participation: 1974, 1976, 1990, 2001, 2004, 2005, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.

This particular screening will be further divided physically and experientially with videos screened on both levels of the Skowhegan office.

Coordinated as a collaboration between German curators Dr. Julia-Constance Dissel and Sandra Mann, Los Angeles-based curator Ichiro Irie and Max Presneill, this exhibition explores similarities of practices that occur within globally expansive yet hyper-connected art production. Taking as its starting point similar thematics and/or formal artistic investigations (technique, material, methodologies, etc.) Doppelgnger reflects on similarity as a tool to investigate both the hyper-connectivity that exchanges issues, trends and impulses on global scale as well as the simultaneity of expression that it engenders. In this way, the curators engage the capacity of art’s function as a seismograph for sociological development.

The concept of the Doppelgnger emerges from German romantic literature at the end of the eighteenth century and refers to an entity that possesses the likeness of another perfect look-alike. Like Robert Louis Stevenson’s Doctor Hyde, the Doppelgnger is a superficial similarity that, while looking and/or sounding similar, is possessed of a different spirit and engagement. The curators have collected together 30 artists from Germany and North America whose juxtaposition in Doppelgnger aesthetically or thematically explores the increased growth of simultaneity in the arts as well as raising issues concerning the meaning of originality and authenticity in the arts.
