Earth: A Retrospective

UNTIL SUNDAY 4/6
GENS PUMPS. Burjassot, 54-56

Earth: A retrospective is a deliberately open reading exhibition, without signs that identify the work or explanations beyond a film script that leads the tour through this kind of physical film. The idea is that the viewer is the one who puts together the fiction in his head, going from one frame to another. Within the framework of Valencia Wold Design Capital, Bombas Gens has invited the artist duo El Último Grito to build a project built with works from the Per Amor a l’Art Collection (and their own) in which structures are deployed, natures and human behaviors that inhabit our planet Earth. Do not look for order or concert, you tell the movie. It all starts with a great installation of transparent colored cloths by Inma Femenía, that shares space with the graphite of Joan Cardells or the desolate photographs of Bleda y Rosa, and pours into a room through which architectures parade, cities, Heavens, outer space, the excavated earth, mountains, red roofs of cold countries and people going to work, kisses, dance, the monkey sleeps and is repressed. in the center, a kind of retro-futuristic city made of brittle glass that sits on wine glass stems, stable but extremely vulnerable. And then the explosion of color. A flower garden of all kinds, traditional and more exotic, that overlap as in the middle of nature competing for the light that gives them vigor and certificate of survival. The last cry serves us underground worlds, violence, oppression and flights to the depths of space to verify that the joy of our nature is incomprehensible. “Fea, bella, fun, terrifying, cruel, unconscious, loving… The Earth!”. S.M.
