Mientras tanto...: otras anatomías, geometrías y cartografías

Mientras tanto...: otras anatomías, geometrías y cartografías

This exhibition arose from the desire of the Alejandra Topete Gallery to dedicate a show to the work of feminist women. The selected works reflect the diversity unleashed by this proposal... echoing the multiplicity of feminisms and their intersections with art.

     The chosen works, in a variety of mediums, scales, and themes, resonate together by reflecting ways of constructing knowledge through sensory exercises and subjectivities that correspond to women's experiences... of space, the body, and temporality. Experiences that manifest themselves in epistemic shifts materialized in surprising approaches to representation and to the materials that shape our internal and external environments.

     Perla Krauze reconfigures the corporeal and emotional experience of architectural space by intervening in the gallery's courtyards with sculptural elements that draw on the multiplicity of textures and expressive qualities of stone and metal. Mónica Mayer, Georgina Reskala, and Mina Bárcenas delve into the territory of memory and the passage of time through their affective interactions with photography and its integration with painting, textiles, and words. Tatiana Parcero and Carol Espíndola embody through photographic performance the stance that "the personal is political" in its broad critical and imaginative implications, placing their bodies in dialogue with printed and natural elements in order to propose new cartographies and criteria for ordering the world. Lucía Lundt and Rebeca Cors explore, through painting and stone sculpture, respectively, abstractions of the corporeal as felt from within. Marcela Díaz, Claribel Calderius, and Alexa Torre evoke, through textiles and photography, the symbolic interrelations between our bodies and the social environment.

     In this sense, the title of the exhibition, "Meanwhile...: Other Anatomies, Geometries, and Cartographies," articulates the distinct horizons from which the eleven artists included in this show reflect on, experiment with, and materialize the universe of the body, space, memory, and imagination from feminist perspectives.
