The first installment of the series Scene with which the IVAM removed the funds from its collection, in the context of his 35 birthday, put the emphasis on the landscape, understood as the context in which life develops. This second installment, Latencies, that arrives a year late, It also aims to decontextualize the works, but this time in relation to time. The title warns: Latency is the time that passes between a stimulus and the response it produces., that period of time in which many things can happen. And this exhibition wants to draw muscle from the IVAM collection and look again at works from a century ago along with other current ones.. As current as the original illustrations of Ana Penyas for the comic everything under the sun (a recent museum acquisition, as is the work of Olga Diego or Ángeles Marco), or like rats Guillermo Ros that gnaw the furniture on which Simone Fattal's work rested. As from the first half of the 20th century as the series of drawings with collage about Dante's Inferno Robert Rauschenberg, or the work of Claude Cahun, a photographer who performed by showing a slippery personality in her images: masculine and feminine traits merged to create an indeterminate and ambiguous literary character. This second Scene IVAM brings together a group of prestigious artists, among whom we find Valencians such as Joan Cardells with their famous corrugated and cardboard jackets, Olga Diego o Angels Frame; big names on the Spanish scene such as Xisco Mensua (to whom tribute is paid), Susana Solano, Pepe Espaliú, Ibon Aranberri o Juan Muñoz, whose characters hanging from a balcony above the optical floor of the last room exemplifies how art from the seventies onwards became more narrative and theatrical.; and first swords of world art such as Gordon Matta-Clark, Reiner Ruthenbeck, Bruce Nauman, o Richard Serra.
