CAC. Lopez Piñero, 7
The golden eggs it's a movie 1993 in which Bigas Luna portrays the adventures of a very macho Javier Bardem determined to build the tallest building in his city, the Gran Hotel Bali in Benidorm. From her was born the inspiration that launched Pormishuevism., a false artistic movement promoted by Erik Harley that digs into the absurd and irrational constructive impulse, a project with a name as saucy and testosteronic as the works it brings together. It started on Instagram, in the account @preféria.periferia, counting by chapters, sly truffles, the most flagrant Hispanic cases of corruption and urban speculation: illegal spas, traveling bridges, burning skyscraper, economic miracles, avant-garde of papier-mâché, bricks, a lot of cement and the occasional roundabout. The project caught on and began to take off on the Internet thanks to people's response, who also wanted to say his own by sharing stories and urban salsa, so Erik decided to go digital, become flesh and walk the streets of different cities explaining on site the urban atrocities that have been committed in this country in the name of brick. Today there are six routes: in Madrid he walks through part of the Paseo de la Castellana talking about proprietary español; in Barcelona, your city, guts the infrastructure left by the Olympics 1992 and the Forum of Cultures of 2004; Marina d'Or explains the founding history of the most famous holiday town on television; in Benidorm it covers much of the skyline of the world capital of mass tourism and vacation leisure; and in Valencia it addresses Calatrava's Waste in the City of Arts and Sciences on a route that this January you will be able to taste in bitter sips. You will understand the professional relationship that our city has maintained with an authentic phenomenon of post-Mishuevist cajoling, Santiago Calatrava, project by project, bridge to bridge, since it all started with a telecommunications tower. This is, according to Erik, the crown jewel of corruption, a true work of art land art dedicated to waste, a pharaonic city without inhabitants conceived as a scientific project and finally built as a trencadís theme park. “Speaking in strictly Mishuevista terms, The white city of Calatrava is a fucking wonder”, apostille. And opening the focus even more, Marina d'Or appear before us, Benidorm, Terra Mítica and Mundo Ilusión to make the Valencian Community, in the eyes of our guide, "synonym of fantasy, something like the promised land of Pormishuevism”. If Mies Van der Rohe formulated that famous “less is more” from the vantage point of the Bauhaus, Pormishuevism exclaims muddied in cement with a helmet and blue overalls: More is little! AU
