A footprint can be a memory, the presence of a matter, the void left by a change, the trace of an element, even a smell. It can also be a mourning and also a learning. DANA's footprint in artistic practice is an exhibition that explores the impact of DANA on local visual arts: which artists and spaces were affected?, what heritage was lost?, how the practices and working conditions of the artistic fabric were transformed? The exhibition addresses the material transformation of works and the invisibility of production spaces, reflect on archives, resilience and recovery of parts, as well as on the structural fragility of the sector, aggravated by the catastrophe. Conceived as an investigation and mediation process started in November 2024, articulated through maps and interviews. Sota an idea of coralitat, collects the affections in works and workshops, the support networks generated and the tools that allow you to rethink the conditions of art and learn from life.
in parallel, the public program combines tau les redones, open studios, scenic proposals and professional meetings to think collectively about how art responds to crisis situations. The tau rounds it off Cultural management in the present continuous reflects on how institutions and groups activate immediate supports. The Open Studios de residencies a Pluto will show the processes of local artists who resume their practices in a temporary collective workshop. With the stage piece Amphibia we will live how the experience of the disaster is transformed into a reflection on our bond with the territory and natural cycles.
Finally, the jam Understand an emergency? will bring together curators and artistic platforms to discuss which devices can be imagined or activated in the face of present and future crises. As a whole, exhibition and program trace an x-ray of the present of the visual arts after the DANA. Although they start from a story located in the affected area, they seek to open a broader view where the institutional, The independent and the community interlace to imagine forms of resistance and cure, placing in art you are not as a creation, but as a resource to face emergencies and rehearse possible futures.
